Good Roads and civilization. :

In its efforts to secure good roads the
press Of the country has been almost
unanimous and the progress In tbis d.

districts have awakened to their true In
terests In this respect Tne bicyolls has

the farmers that they must have good
roads II they with TO reach the pockets
OF their city friends
Good roads have paved the way to g
better state OF things IN almost every
country locality. City people are now
making their way across almost every
field and mountain led thither by good
roads. Civilization follows them and
prosperity keeps step with that. 1t ii

people all over this vast country Of ours
and as contemporary very truly says
the first question they ask Is How are
the roads In such and such locality
and can We get to and from town easily
This question Is now mostly answered II
the Affirmative. A dczsn years ago II
would not have been so. Even remote
small towns and villages have paved
their streets because those who we'll II
them know that such improvements In
cure harvest Of Summer bosrdsrs
Thus does everybody reeogn.zs that

From the Springfield Republican.
It is obvious that the cyclone will be
more aud more terrible scourge as the
steady press Of Immigration peoples the
great plains OF the West. There Is not
uncommon impression that such storms
are becoming more frequent. or even that
they are a comparatively new thing. The
true explanation OF the seeming increase
is that as the country becomes more
thickly settled the storms do mora
damage. There are vast districts where
every neighborbood has Its "wind-fsll,"
narrow gorge. perhaps less than 100
feet wide, running for miles through the
forest. Ia which there Is no tree standing.
The largest oaks have been broken
of or pulled up by the roots and
sent caresriDg perhaps half mile
into the sky, while outside OF this
belt the frailest shrub is unhsrned
There was an unreportsd cyclone. On
the prAirles such storms are constantly
happening and leave no such trail. Oc-

in dismlssing from West Point two ca
