RULE OF KING MUD.
The Annual Lnmentntion About His
Cruelty and Tyranny Now
Appears In Print.
Mud! mud!! mud!!!

Mud! mud!! mud!!!
The newspapers from every corner of
the nation bring the same old annual
spring moan. Only the grief appears 10
be growing a little more inconsolable
each year, as the public becomes more
cognizant of the fact that bad roads are
almost US unnecessary as they are un-
pleasant and Improbable. A whole
paper could be filled With complaints
like the following from the Decatur
Qll) Republican:
THE country roads are now in n
worse condition than they have been for
u number of years past II IS simply i'm
possible for those who have not at
tempted 10 drive over the roads to
realize what condition they are in. No
grain at all is moving and the traffic Of
the farmers is practically blockadcd. a
few days ago nn empty wagon was
stuck in the mud on the streets OF Mon
ticello. and the roads outside OF the vii
lage were even worse"
Or like this from the LGtrobe (Pa.)
Daily Clipper:
"Thc bad condition Of the country
roads is known to all who travel them,
but our milkmen. who have to travel
them early every morning. have the
most experience. AS an example we
note the breaking of w. w. Nichols
wagon while coming to town with milk
this morning. 1t is thought by some
that the bottom has fallen out OF some
spots and wagon wheels should be
steen feet high to plow through them
If the object lesson to be derived from
study of the "horrible example real
ly counts for anything. the roads In
every part of the country must soon
show marked improvements. A. w.

Gaad Ta,Yn TO LIVE In.

The citizens of Rolfe, Ia, woke up to
the fact that they were money losers
because of the poor condition of their
streets and highways. They got to
talking, and from talking to working,
and subscription paper good for $3.50
was obtained from the business men.
This was presented to the city council
and a similar amount voted from the
city treasury. This was supplemented
by liberal donations of team work by
the farmers. Gravel pits were bought
and opened, and on four leading roads
out of the city all winter force ofmen
has been hauling gravel. Rolfe will
have good roads hereafter. and people
from afar and near will 60 there to
trade because Of 1t.
