forcing a small quantity Of oil

WE NEED GOOD ROADS.
Ths quicker This Idea Is Generally
Accepted the Better for Ma
tional Prosperity.

The work OF the League Of America q
Wheelmen in behalf Of good roads Is re-
ceiVing recognition from some of the
most influential sources in the coun-
try. The Washington Times gives the
following editorial opinion:
Inc question Of road-building In this
country ia receiving, as 1t should, liz
creased attention from the public II
.ate. There Is no topic on which dis
eussion Is more profitable, and none
upon which it is more important that
public interest should be awakened.
The problem has been, In this coun-
try, an exceedingly difficult tie, owing
10 the immense extent of territory over
which highways have 10 extend and
the diversified nature of II. In no other
civilized country has single modern
government had to wrestle with the
problem OF making good, solid roads
over thousands of miles Of country,
some swampy, some mountainous, and
al more or less untamed by the hand
OF man. The Romans laid foundatio
Of good roads all over Europe, and still
remain the champion road-builders Of
the ages. But We had no Romans in
this country to lay foundations for us,
nor had we barbarians whom we could
press into involuntary service to DO the
stone-breaking, even II we had wanted
to emulate the works Of Caesar.
Another thing which has compicat-
ed the matter Of making turnpikes is
the rapid and phenomenally success
ful development Of the railroads. They
have cast their network of steel wires
all over the country and absorbed the
transportation business, so that where
they went II was not so very necessary
TO have roads that would stand heavy
hauling or promote fast driving. In
Kentucky, famous for her good roads.
travel by coach or horseback was com
mon, and it was worth while for the
community to make II easy and swift.
Moreover, the configuration OF the
country favored road-bullding.
or late years the bicycle associations
have urged an improvement in the
highways. A bicycle il a less patient
animal than the horse, In some re-
spects. 1t will work untiringly as long
as IL Is humored, but IL has TO be hu-
mored. A good horse will endure
because he must-struggling out of
boghole which has mired him TO the
depth OF a foot or two, or picking his
way over a siding mountain path Gov
cred with rolling stones, but nobody
can get bicycle to do that. A horse
will stand the spur, whereas II a spur
was used on the tire OF bicycle 1t
would calmly lie down In the road. In
'hort, the wheel is an exacting crea-
ture TO ride, and the bicyehst very soon
discovered that for his own comfort,
Z he intended TO ride that wheel at his
own sweet will, he will have 10 bestir
himself and make the legislatures pro-
'ide good roads for him TO travel.
BY whatever means the roads are
improved, II 10 well that IL should be
lone. The difference between a good
Dad and bad oos may mean much 10
he community. II may make or mar
he civilization OF the whole region to
'e more or less accessible by turnpike.
The quicker this matter OF public high
Ways receives proper atten tion the bet
er of the public will be.

Prepare MATCHING rroueb,.

One Of the things that usually gets
little or no attention is the supply OF
watering troughs at convenient places
about the stockyards; and this neglect
most frequently happens during the
winter feeding period. just when stock

The old-fashioned wood trough and
tanks will do, II nothing better can be
had; but the advantages Of galvanized
troughs for hogs, sheep, calves and
poultry. and the galvanized steel tanks

A GOOD BOND DEAL.
Glynn Gets Big Batch of Question
able Bonds at Al Nominal Price.

Brunswick, Ga, Dec. 22.-Glynn's
County Commissioners, with the assist
ance of County Attorney A. l.. Frank
lin, have finally secured the last batch
of the old fraudulent bond issue that
dated back to 1871, and for the sum of
$2.250 they have obtained bonds which
with the accrued interest, aggregate in
face value Sill, 500. This is by far the
best compromise of the old Glynn
county bonds ever made, and when it
is understood that with their serial
numbers the commissioners have Sc
cured a complete chain of evidence to
establish the fact that these are the
last of the old bonds out the value t.
the taxpayers of Glynn and the various
financiers of the country, who have
been handling these bonds during the
past thirty years can be readily esti
mated. 1t is by far the best work the
commissioners have done in many
days. With these bonds in the posses
sion of Glynn's commissioners, the his
tory of them will probably be closed
from the public view for all time to
come, but for thirty years they
have furnished the courts, both Fed
eral and state of this and other states,
suits of various characters and the leg
islatures of Georgia from time to time,
much to discuss in regard to declaring
them invalid. so that no one would
handle them.
1t has been known for a long time
that old bonds were being redeemed,
and 1t has also been known that in
many instances they were sent in for
redemption with thirty years interest
attached. 1t is common property that
many of the bonds brought their last
owners good returns, and the sums al
legged to have been paid out in past
years for such are placed at high fig
ures. The last batch, however, was
bought at the lowest figure ever heard
of in connection with the bonds, and
the Sill, 500 worth was represented as
follows: $780, 900 principal and thirty
years interest at 7 per cent.
1t is said that these identical bonds
were at one time practically in pos
session of commissioners of Glynn
county. having been awarded to them
by the Superior Court of New York
City, on an action brought to by them
alleging fraud. yet the commissioners
did not send for them, and they were
sold by the Trust Company that held
them to secure payment of storage
charge of $72.
