Everything is Expected From
 the Publisher.

Hon. J. F. Ston, editor of the South Bend, Ind, Times, says. Sub scribers of country newspapers often allow their subscriptions to become delinquent through carelessness, and yet feel insuted if their raper is stopped or a statement of their de- linquency is sent to them. They do not expect any courtesy from metro politan papers, but the country papers are expected to come on whether they are paid for or not. This is an unjust eXaetion. Because he is editor of country newspaper is no reason why a man should carry you year after year. The income from subscriptions to d newspaper is an important item. Like snow flakes they are individually small, but when aggregated they pile up wonderfully. They should be coming. in every day in the year. They must come if the publisher pays his bills which fall due every month in the year

Carlisle as candidate appears to possess
at least one qualification that will endear
him to Democratic hearts. He has passed
round the circle on most of the great
issues, especially the currency. In Con
gress he was an ardent advocate of free
silver coinage In the cabinet he has been
au equally pronounced sound money man.
The present mongrel tariff law is more
Carlisle than Wilson or German
measure. Hence the great strength of the
present secretary of the treasury. rs a
prospective Democratic standard bearer.
A man who could be proclaimed in the
East as sound money man, and In the
West as an advocate of free silver In
other matters he can be made to appear
all things to all men. In view of these
facts there does not appear to be much
reason for surprise, at the drift of senti
ment in what is left of the Democratic
party in Mr. Carlisle's direction.

Good Roads.

We are pleased to publish this morning
a communication from G. s. Hichborn,
Esq, upon the bill before Congress to
provide for national highway commits
sion. Mr.. Hichborn is chief consul Of the
l.. A W. in this State and that associa-
ton has no more earnest worker in the
cause Of good roads than he.
This subject is one of the most import
ant of any with which communities have
to deal. If municipalities are to keep in
the line of progress they must have good
roads. 1t is fatal mistake to think
otherwise. Probably few do although
Judging from the slip-shod methods ap-
piled to their highways the unpleasant
inference that they do is almost unavoid-
able.
The rural towns are not sufficiently
aroused to the Importance of the ques
ton. Even if they were the confusing
recommendations respecting the construc-
ton of highways, the high cost Of the
most approved methods and only dim
appreciation of the benefits certain to
accrue from improved thoroughfares of
business and communication initiate
against any considerable or immediate
step in advance. One of the avowed pur
poses of the proposed national commits
sion, according to the bill, is to collect
information, sift it from the chaff of mere
opinion, put different methods to pract
cal tests, ascertain not only what is the
best but also the cheapest building mate
rial and disseminate all this Information
throughout the country. Certainly this
seems practicable, and the commission
would soon cease to be merely figure
head of governmental "soft snap" should
it take on that appearance at first.
1t may not be that Maine's country
roads are in worse condition than the
country roads of other states but they are
altogether too bad In the state of New
Hampshire for instance the road machine
has been longer in general use than here
in Maine and the good effects are already
apparent The example set by Massa-
chusetts is one which Maine must follow
so far as possible
We have not so much money to expend
but it is just as tree in Maine as in

roads are the most expensive Our readers
will recall that much has appeared in the
press of the State recently, about towns
getting out of debt and having qnite
little surplus on hand. This Is very
gratifying. But we believe that good
roads and legitimate debt are better Tor
the town than small surplus and high
ways which are impossible three montls

not only render it impossible for the
farmer to get his products to market on
