roads grow from bad to worse in some
places.
The manner in which roads in Wis
consin have been maintained for many
years is not a correct one, nor is the
system of roadmasters. It should have
been abolished long ago. These road
masters are elected by reclamation,
whether the man is competent to earn
his salary or not; influence conquers,
and often the beer-glass decides the
election. To some it is great fun to
elect somebody who does not want,
and does not care for the Office. In
some places it is the rule, when hauling
gravel in payment of road taxes,to load
on as little as possible. If the road
masters would see that every team
hauled at least one cubic yard, consid-
erably more would be accomplished.
In some districts where capitalists live
who do not work their road taxes them
selves the cash is collected by road
masters who promised to have the
taxes worked, but most of it remains
in his pocket, or is used to fumigate
or irrigate the throat. A roadmaster
who really and earnestly sees to it that
every tax paper does his duty is seldom
reelected.
If we want good roads we must elect
men to the legislature who are interest
ed in exacting more suitable laws.

ASNExAr1oN Is ASSURED.
Hawaiian Treaty WIN Be Ratified by
the Senate.

CHICAGO, Nov. PA special to the
Times Herald from Washington says:
Ratification of the Hawaiian annex
alton treaty by the United States SEN
ate is assured. Eleven senators were
doubtful and twenty-one opposed to its
ratification, Since that time the ad-
ministration has taken steps to ascertain
the views of the men who were then in
doubt. AS result President McKin-
ley is depending upon sixty-one sena-
tors who will certainly cast their votes
in favor of the treaty, with prospects of
the addition of several votes to this num-
Der.
The treaty is in excellent shape for
prompt action. 1t was fully considered
by the senate committee on foreign re-
lations, reported to the senate and
placed on the calendar with practically
the unanimous Endorsement of the com
mittee. There were no votes against it.,
though Senators Turpie and Daniels re-
Trained from voting because they had
not fully made up their minds as to
what position they would take in the
matteE. 1t is said to be the purpose of
Chairman Davis at the first executive
session to ask that day be fixed for
taking up the treaty. It's ratification
early in the year is expected.
President Mckinley in his message to
congress will present as strongly as pos
sIble the arguments for annexation. He
will show that the treaty has alreedy
been ratified by the Hawaiian senate, and
only the action OF the United States sen.
ate is required to annex the island tc
our territory. The president does moi
expect annexation will result in compli
cations with any foreign power. While
Japan will not openly interpose any OBJ
lection if the senate acts promptly, ad.
ministraiion officials think it not unlike
ly that she will secretly do all she car
to delay ii not defeat ratification. Any
Lobbying by Japan, however, will tenc
to expedite rather tnan delay action by
the senate. The most of the opposition
win come from the sugar interests. Pa

SAN Francisco, Nov. 12.-William
Henry Theodore Durrant was not hanged
at San Quentin this morning, after all.
the supreme court of this state having
granted him another respite at the 11th
hour.
Up to four o'clock Yesterday afternoon
when the news was flashed over the
wires that the court now IN session there
had granted a writ of habeas corpus,
and had instructed Warden Hale not
to carry out the execution of Durrant
until further orders, there was appar-
emily no further hope for the condemned
murderer of Blanche Lamont, as his at
torneys, Messrs. Boardman and Dick
inson, had made futile attempt to Sc
cure another writ of habeas corpus in
the United States circuit court, and had
not even been granted permission to ap
peal from the decision of the supreme
court of the United States.
Meanwhile, however, Attorney Deu-
prey hastened to Sacramento and ap-
piled to the state supreme court for a
writ of probable cause for the purpose
OF staying Ihe proceedings against MS
client on the grounds that no official
knowledge of the action of the supreme
court of the United States in the matter
of Durrant's appeal from the decision Of
the federal court had yet been received !;
that the superior court had acted tco
hastily in sentencing Durrant to be
hanged today ,as the law required that he
be given at least go days of grace, and
consequently that the tendency of an
other appeal in the supreme coArt af-
fecting the condemned man is of itself
sufficient cause for stay of execution.
After the arguments were concluded,
the court took the matter under advise
ment, and late in the afternoon granted
the stay of execution was grant ed as re-
quired.

An Alleged Conspiracy to
Wipe out Bolivia.
CHILE, PERU AND ARGENTINE UNITE
All Three TO Make War on the Common
Chile the Moving spir-
it in the Plot.

New YORK, Nov. PA dispatch to
the Herald from Valparaiso says;
A plan for a dreibund of Chile, Peru
and Argentine is in existence, which. if
adopted by the three governments, will
wipe Bolivia off the South American
map, Chile, Peru and Argentine divid-
ing her territory. Startling as this
statement lie there are many who are
inclined to give it credence, Without
doubt there is some international move
of Importance under contemplation.
Chile and Peru have become entangled
with Bolivia, and what the results will
be no one can tell.
The demands of the alarmists for an
explanation from the government, 1t is
generally believed, are justified. Senior
Salinas, Chile's minister to Sucre. Boliv-l
ia, has gone to Santiago to confer with
the government on the situation. The
government fatty denies that he will
not return to Sucre, though there are
grave tears that he will be murdered if
he does return, as the feeling there
against Chile is intense.
In the clubs. in cafes, and at public
gatherings, everywhere in Bolivia ev
eryone hears Chile talked of as faith
less nation. Reasons for all the feelings
against Chile are to be found in the re-
beIlion of 1881, and its bearing on the
Ancion treaty. The revolutionists
promised to Bolivia, if she would recog-
nize the belligerency of the rebels, that
if they were victorious they would give
to Bolivia two years after victory the
two Peruvian provinces of Tacna and
Arcls, held temporarily by Chile under
the Ancion treaty.
More than six years have elapsed since
the victory OF the revolutionists, and
Chile has not yet fulfilled her promise,
for the simple reason that by doing so
she would trample on the treaty. Bo-
livia now insists on the fulfllment OF
the promise which Chile holds illegal.
In the meantime Chile has recalled
Senior Lira, the minister of Chile to Pc
ru, who belonged to the revolutionary
party, and has sent Senior Vincente
Santa Cruz, Balmacedist, there with
instructions TO sound Peru on an ALI.
ance against Bolivia, against which the
government of Peru has many griev.
ances. The plan is to bring about wal
with Bolivia, and for Peru's assistance
it promises to return Peru the provinces
Tacna and Arcia without putting the
question to popular vote or demanding
of Peru the 10,0OO,000 soles ransom, al
provided in the Ancion treaty. Chile
has also prepared to furnish Peru with
all necessary arms and munitions to car
ry on a war with Bolivia.
In this connection the dreibunc
against Bolivia is considered. Argen
tina, 1t is said, will be invited into the
alliance in order to give strength to the
movement.
The Heraldo says that it is reported
all international affairs between Chill
and Peru and Bolivia will soon be salts
factorily settled, except the commercial
and police treaty, drawn by Bolivia, anC
leaving the solution of the Tacna-Arica
questions until next year.
