pirate enough MONEY To construct first

Road ACTIVITY In WISCONSIN.

1t begins 10 look as though Wisconsin
would take an advanced position among
the states OF the west in the movement
for good roads. Indeed the Badger State
is already SO far ahead of Illinois in the

Congressman Hit, Chairman Of
the House Committee on Foreign
Affairs, in recent interview says
"Our duty to the Cuban people is 8
practical and pressing question. Our
government should act at once, recog-
nizing the belligerency Of people
carrying on SO extensive a war. They
have fought great armies for q year
and a half, and with success. The
Cubans are truly belligerents. Such
action on the part Of our country
would be Of great advantage to them.
Recognition Of bslligerent rights is
due under the principles and prsc-
tees of general international Law and
practice Of the United States gov
eminent. We refuse to see that they
are bslligerent enough to defy and
defeat 10000 Spanish troops. This
is not question Of sympathy, but of
plain, pressing duty, that should be
performed immediately"

Other Peoples Time.

There is among a great many
people singular lack Of the sense
of the value Of other peoples time.
No man goes to his neighbor and
asks him for q hundred dollars for
his own use, except upon a business
basis; but there are many men who
do not hesitate to ask services of
their neighbors, involving the expen-
diture Of more than a hundred dol
lars worth Of time, with no thought,
apparently, Of the value Of that for
which they are asking. Men UNDER
stsnd very generally the value of
money; they do not understand the
value Of time or Of effort, and those
who would be the very last to ask
for 8 gift of money are the very first
to ask for gift Of time quite as val
liable. Eminent actors and singers
are, for instance, constantly asked to
give benefits by people who have
absolutely no claim upon them, but
who suppose, because they are not
asking for gift Of money outright,
that they are making a perfectly
natural and reasonable request; as a
matter Of fact, they are very likely
asking for donation Of five hundred
or a thousand dollars. There is
probably nothing which the busy
American needs quite SO much
as time; nothing which the
successful preacher or speaker, for
instance, finds himself SO sorely puz-
zled to preserve, and Of which he
feels SO constantly the need. Men
will respect a minister's rights On
every side except his right to this
priceless possession. For time is
only another name for intellectual
growth and intellectual power, if a
man knows how to use it properly.
The man who does know how to use
it properly is very glad to give 10
where. he would give money Of the
same value, but he objects to the
assumption that in cases in which he
would not be asked to give money
he will give time, because time has
no vslue.-Outlook.

Executive Committee Meets.

The State Executive Committee
convened in Atlanta on Tuesday.
a euh-oo nmittee was appointed TO
write an address Oh Mr.. Watson's
recent letter and one to suggest a
plaa for future organization, both to
report to a future meeting of the
full ocmmittee.
The following resolutions submit
tap by Mr. Jas. Sibley wero adopted;
"Whereas the people Of this state
did not consent to the increase in the
number of the supreme court Judges
until plan was offered that they
believed would eliminate partisan
methods and caucus combinations,
thus making the Office one to be filed
by the people rather than partisan
ringsters and trading politicians; and,
whereas there are no candidates be-
fore the people who submitted their
candidacy to the voice of the entire
people, but only those who subjected
these high Offices to the dictate Of a
partisan convention; and, whereas
we believe that this violates the
wishes Of majority Of the people OF
this state, therefore be it
"Resolved, That we call no con
vention OF the Peoples party to nom.
mate candidates for the supreme
court of this state"
