Economy Of Good Roads.

The prairie states of the central
west are taking up in earnest as never
before the question Of good country
roads, The problem is less. easy to-
solve than further, east, owing to COM
parative lack of broken stone, yet in

not require technical engineering
knowledge to cut down hills, fill up hol-
lows and grade rough turnpikes, al
though farming are very
wise in appropriating all the expert
information attainable. A most i'm

ANOTHER RUSSIAN SUGAR DECISION.

United States General Appraisers. sitting as a
board Of classification yesterday announced de-
cison in another Russian sugar case, that or
Gustav A. jain & Co, in which briefs had been
submitted. The board passed upon the essential
questions involved in the case when the case or
Robert z. Downs was decided several weeks ago.
At that time II was held that the Russian Govern
ment did pay a bounty or grant upon the eXporta-
ton of sugar, and consequently the action or the
Secretary OF the Treasury in imposing a counter
vailing duty was sustained. The only new point
brought up in the Jahn case was that the sugar
was purchased and shipped from Russia prior to
the PRONUNCIATION of the order of the Secretary Of
the Treasury, February IA last.
Judge Somerville who writes the opinion of the
board says that the contention that the counter
vailing duty should not be imposed that ground
is quickly disposed OF: The Treasury circular has
been held to be applicable to all Russian sugars
arriving after February a. and the shipment in
question reached here February 26. For the rest,
the decision is based upon the stated in the
Downs The protests are overrued on all
grounds, and the decision of the Collector is af-
frrned Colonel Tichenor dissented from the con-
clusion of the majority OF the board. The Downs
is now before the Federal courts.
