was read before the Governor
and lawmakers Of South Carolina The
occasion was South Carolina Legis-
lature and Good Roads Day" at the
Charleston Exposition. Mr.. Crosby's
subject, naturally, was the present
condition and possibilities Of the roads
adjacent to this city. He pointed out
the great advantages at the disposal
Of Baltimore Countians to the east and
south in the use of oyster shells, than
which no finer material exists for
smooth, hard roadbed. These advan-
tages, he said, have been lost in a great
measure by their application TO the
roads without the proper foundation.
Speaking of the metal used in the
construction of the roads to the north
and west Of Baltimore, MI Crosby said
the old methods in use from time i'm.
memorial Of putting down a layer of
stone as big as a mans head then
gradually working up to sizes Of a
mans hand the whole to be left to
take care of itself after a slight veneer
Of earth, form the hardest problem
for the engineer of to-day. The settle.
ment has been uneven, drainage prob.
lens have been ignored, and yet it is
expected that the engineer can build
up a rcadbed on scientific principles
with the same amount of funds as was
annually allowed for practically letting
matters shift for themselves.
Upon the earth roads, Mr.. Crosby
said, he has been able TO do the best
work this year. There was nothing to
be undone before modern methods
could be applied. Summing up the
matter, Mr.. Crosby believes that the
difficulties to be encountered in putting
the Baltimore County roads into much
better condition are gradually being
surmounted, and he believes that when
things have advanced sufficiently to
show the practical success Of his theor-
les the movement will develop much
like the snowball-the larger it be.
comes, the faster it grows.
Mr.. Crosby has had, and will have,
a hard and thankless task for some
time. 1t is hard to convince some that
timeworn methods have been super.
seded by others, even when these 9th.
ers are plainly to their advantage. He
is taking the right course, however, in
making the most Of the limited means
at his disposal. The results are sure
to be the best argument for the con.
tinuation of the common sense meth

Destructive Narrow Tics.

We spend millions Of dollars every
year in our municipalities for perma.
nent pavements, and more millions in
the country for better highways, and
then permit the use of the destructive
narrow tire. 1t is impossible 10 esti'
mate the amount Of annual damage to
good pavements and good ROADS result
ing from the use of narrow-tired We.
hicles. In the city trucks with heavy
loads cut up and rut the pavements,
making it necessary to eXpend in the
aggregate throughout the country mil
lions Of dollars for repairs, and the
same is true Of rural conditions. 1t is
high time that city and country united
their influence in advocating the adop-
ton of State, county and municipal
legislation which should provide for
the equipment Of all wagons with wide
tires. The counties Of Monroe and On
tarlo, of New York State, have recently
adopted resolutions favoring such n
measure, with q provision for a $50
penalty for breach of the ordinance.
This is a matter which demands the

Buencamino, who was known as
the Brains OF the Aguin aldo
Government is. in Washing ton,
and has conversed with the Pres
ident on the Philippine situation.
He told the President that the
civil government is doing won
derful work for the good in the
islands, and that it has been ably
seconded by the army. The
stories Of cruelty practiced by
American soldiers, he said, were
either wholly untrue or else
greatly exaggerated. The army
has conducted itself in q way to
elicit praise from all right-think-
ing Filipinos, and this in the face
Of the greatest Of provocations
and temptations. The Taft Com
mission, he told Mr.. Roosevelt,
has the entire confidence Of all
honestly disposed natives, and
Senior Buencaminohim hopes,
he says, that Governor Taft will
remain an indefinite time at the
head Of the civil government.
The Filipinos, he declared, love
Governor Taft, for he has never
deceived them and they know
him to be their friend.

month of May is as follows:
Average number of books taken from the
library daily 16
Average number of books returned 16
Average number of books in circulation 100
Number of boys who have takeh books 1872
Number of girls who have taken books 2S7

The books which have held SUI
premacy in the library are 1.-THE
Crisis" by Churchill, "The Man
from Conner, Fright
of Way" Parker, External City,
and "The Chris tan, Game, sThe
Cavalier" Cable.
Our reading room contained
the May numbers of eight of the
most popular monthly magazines
and seven weekly papers.
The average numbers of our
library and reading room have
fallen but I think We can safely
say this is owing to the pressing
school work the young people
had to do; however, though the
averages have fallen, the interest
shown is decidedly greater.

letter from Dried Meat Lake,
Alberta, dated May IL, says:
No doubt but you have been look
ing for word from me for some time,
but II you had gone over the muddy
roads and done the work that l have
you would know how to sympathize
and excuse me.
Am quite we'll suited here though
the spring has been cold and back
ward, they say, for this country.
Stock has been getting a living on
the new grass for q week or longer.
| am breaking and sewing oats and
barley which I expect to get good re-
turns from, judging from reports of
those who have raised these grains
here in the past. Expect to SOW some
fax, which also does we'll.
It would have been a pleasure to me
to have attended church in Milbank
yesterday and enjoyed the services,
and to have met the familiar faces,
but | attended preaching services
about three miles from here and
found a few who take an interest in
church and Sunday school work.
We have a store and blacksmith
shop about two and one-half miles
from here. There has been a great
immigration here this spring and the
most OF the land has been taken for
more than twenty miles beyond here.
Would speak of the Grant county
folks that came with us had / time,
but will say that they seem to be all
doing we'll.

The following original poem
was read by E. F.. Slifer at the
Memorial exercises in the opera
house last Friday afternoon.
Back in the days of 81,
When North and South in conflict met;
Under 9 scorching sun,
Were days we never shall forget.
s'Our boys in blue, y brave men were they,
In answer to their country's call,
Went forth to meet the s'boys in gray"
To battle on a southern coil.
They left their homes side by side
Into the .sanny South they elid;
They went, they fought. they bled, they died,
They saved the Union-yes, they did.
The news soon flashed to distant lands,
From vale to hilltop, shore to shore
Union Of states, Of hearts, OF hands,
Union Of North and South once more.
Long years have passed since then, since then,
Many have reached the other shore,
Commended by their fellowmen,
Az heroes of . civil war.
And now on Decoration Day,
Throughout this favored land Of ours,
~ greet each outn Jay OF may,
To strew their graves with fragrant flowers.
'Tis right, 'tis well, tits fair, 'tis just,
TO reverence those who wore the blue;
We can. we will, we do, we must,
Honor the brave-the soldier true.
Honor the dead, who won the day,
Whose graves lie scattered east and west;
Honor the ~hying-while yen may,
Till the last veteran sinks to rest.
No nation meath the shining sun,
Need e'er attempt to raise : hand,
By force Of arms, with sword or gun,
To conquer this most mighty land.
Her resources are far too great,
Her patriotism does not sleep;
Her M W o 10 mp to date,
And cuts the pillows Of the deep.
Over al by day and night.
Waves the nag we love 90 well.
Emblem Of honor, union, might,
Whosestars In number ever swell.
Generations yet to be.
Will protect their country's rights;
Defend the banner Of the free,
honor still the stars and stripes.

JAP JOINS
 GREAT BRITAIN
An Alliance Formed for Protect
 ing Each Other in Orient

London, February 11.-An important parliamentary paper was issued tonight giving the terms of practical alliance preservation of Chfra and Corea The paper covers a despatch sent by Lord Lansdowne, the secretary of state for foreign affairs. January 30, to the British minister at Tokio, and comprises a sign ed copy of the agreement.
 We each desire.' says Lord Lansdowne that the integrity and independence of the Chinese empire should be preserved and that there should be no disturbance of the territorial status quo either In China or the adjoining regions
 The agreement declares that if either Great Britain or Japan in defense of their respective interests in China and Corea should become involved in a war with another power, the other contracting party will maintain strict neutrality and use it's efforts to prevent other powers from joining in the hostilties against it's ally. If in this event, any other power or powers should join in hostilties against that ally, the other contracting party will come to it's assistance and will conduct war in common and make peace in mutual agreement with 1t.
 The agreement came into effect im- mediately after it was signed on January 30 and Is to remain in force for five years and be binding for a year after either party denounces 1t. But, if, when the date fixed for the expiration of the agreement arrives either party thereto is actually engaged in war, the alliance shall ipso facto be continued until peace is concluded
 The agreement is signed by Lord Lans- downe and Baron Hayashi. the Japanese minister to Great Britain.

MINISTER'S HOT
 AT TER MORMONS
Alliance Begin Investigation of
 Practice of Po|ygamy

Salt Lake, Utah. February n.-The Ministerial Alliance of Salt Lake has un- animously adopted the committee report of that organization appointed to investi- gate the report on the alleged practice and teaching of polygamy by the Nor mons at the present time. This report is to be used as a petition for the passage of a constitutional amendment prohibit ing polygamy and will be sent to the judiciary committees of Congress The report sets forth that positive evidence can be produced that polygamy IS botIt practiced and taught by the Mormons at the present time in open defiance of the laws of the state.
 The report after quoting a number of Mormon leaders in favor of the practice of polyEamy and givrg the dates of the same, dwells on the colonization schemes of the church which. according to the committees report lave a two-fold pur- rose, viz: to enable the ,Mormons to prac- uce polygamy where they will be free from the scrutiny of their gentle neigh bcrs,'' and to secure the balance of poll tical power in the sparsely settled states of the West thus blocking the way of any proposed hostile national legislation.

F. Andrews Makes Statement Saying He Ruined But Given Chance Will Try to Pull Them All Out of Trouble Thinks it Will Do No Good to Lock Him Up

Treasurer Andrews bond and it will be impossible to collect from the bondsmen. Arrangements were made to transfer the funds to the City National Bank
 F. C. Andrews was interviewed this af- ternoon for the first time since the City Bank closed it's doors. T have not a penny I am ruined,a but I don't worry about myself All that is on my mind now is to save the others involved in this crash.
 T did not take the certified checks all in one day. but suecessively. I went to the bank and exchanged them for the collaterals, but in most instances they had been sold.
 The money I got was used to pay drafts and obligations at other banks. There are memorandas of every transac- tion and the collaterals can be satisfac- torily explained if they will only take the trouble to listen to me. So far as Harry Andrews is concerned, he can take a mans note for $5000 if he supposes the maker to be good. can't he2 And if the maker turns out worthless he has only a piece of paper to show for 1t hasn't he? l had plenty of collateral at the time If they would only give me a chance and let me pull out everybody would get their money. l have got lots of equities ano other things that I have not turned over to them yet but will do so as soon as they will listen to me.
 ''The criminal proceedings are all right but if the fellows think they can get their money by putting me behind the bars for a year where I can get rest, l am sat isfied.
 'The people need not worry about the public funds which was in the bank They will be restored. although it will perhaps break the directors who will perhaps make good the deficiency"

AGAINST ANNExING ISLANDS.
MT. Carmack Introduces a Resolution
 Opposing Philippine Statehood.

Washington, February n.-Senator Car mack today introduced the following joint resolutions:
 That the. United States regard with extreme disfavor any movement having for its object the early or ultimate admis- sion of the Philippine Islands as a state or states of the union; and any action on the part of persons hofding office under the authority of the United States that give sanction or encouragement to such movement is hereby condemned. That to confer the rights and privileges of citi- zens upon the inhabitants of the Philip pine Islands would tend to destroy the integrity of citizenship and to degrade the character of the government of the United States. That to maintain the re- lation of sovereign and subject between the government of the United States and the people under it's dominion would be repugnant to the principles of the con- Stitution."
