0o0d ROAD. .t.ss ~
Brandywlne Hundred, Del, Feb. l
Mr. Editor:-I noticsd IN q recent
issue Of your paper an article on bad
roads. ! think for my self we SHOULD
hear something from good roads.
Bad roads constitute the greatest
drawback to rural life and for the
lack Of good roads. tho farmers suffer
more than any other class. 1t is oh.
viously unnecessary therefore to dis.
cuss here the benefits to be derived
by them from improved roads. SUI
flee 1t 10 say that these localities
where good roads have been buitare
becoming richer, more prosperous and
more thickly settled while those which
do not possess these advantages In
transportation are then at stand.
still. or are becoming poorer and
more sparsely.
If these conditions continue fruit
full farms may be abandoned and
rich land 60 to waste. Life on farm
often becomes as result of bottom.
less roads, isolated and barren OF So
cial enjoyment and pleasures and
country people in some communities
suffer such great disadvan :ages that
ambition is checked, energy weaken.
ed and industry para Aed. Good roads
like good streets make habitation
along them most desirable. They
economize tine and force in transport
lat'On of product. reduce wear and
tear on horses, harness and wagons,
and enhance the market value OF
real estate, raise the value OF farm
land and farm product, and tend to
beautlly the country through
which they pass. They facilitate ru-
raj mail delivery, and are patent
aid to education, religion aud social
ibiity.
The difference between good and
bad roads is often equivalent to the
difference between profit and loss.
Good roads have a money value to
the farmer as well as political and
soclaI value and leaving out cOnyen-
fence, comfort. social and refined in.
fluenccs, Mbich good roads always
enhance, aud looking al them only
from the almighty doIar SIDE they
are found to pay handsome dividends
each year.
People generally are beginning to
realize thai road building is a public
matter and that the hest interests OF
American agriculture and the Amcri-
can people as Il whole, demand the
construction of good roads, and that
money wisely spent for this purpose
is sure to return. Sullicc il to say
that all money spent on repairing
dirt roads becomes each year il total
loss without materially improving
there condition. They are as Il rule
the most expensive roads that can he

roads il properly constructed of good
material. and kept in perfect condi-
tlon are the most satisfactory, the
cheapest and mort economical road,

BRADFORD is DEAD.
Statehood Loses Her Most Eloquent
and Ardent Champion.

Judge s. B. Bradford of Ardmort
who suffered paralytic stroke
several days ago is dead. He
never rallied from the deadly
stroke and his demise has been
expected for the past few days.
In the death OF Judge Bradford,
the territory loses one of her most
gifted citizens and the statehood
cause its most eloquent champion
He was a man of brilliant attain
ments and had served the state OF
Kansas as attorney general.
He had but recently returned
from Washin gton where be was
sent by the Muskogee single state
hood convention, when stricken
with the illness which ended in
his death. His death will be
mourned throughout the territory
by the legions of friends who have
been won by his kindly and
gracious nature.

INTEREST CENTERED
On Passage of the Only Measure
Which Now Promises Relief
To the Territory From the
Existing Unsatisfac-
tory Conditions.

The interest Of the territory in
congressional legislation is now
centered on the Moon bill, which
will sotn be brought up in the
house. II is the only measure be-.
fore congress, which promises re-
lief from the present unsatisfactory
conditions existing In the territory.
The bill has strong chance of
finding passage, if the territory
uses some concerted action in the
matter. In discussing the bill Mr..
8. B. Springs, a heavy realty
holder in the Choctaw nation
voiced the sentiments of the resi-
dents of the territory in the fol.
lowing endorsement of its pro-
visions.
81 can conceive no explanation
for the people Of Indian Territory
not standing as one man for the
proposed Territory of Jefferson
bill. 1t is the star on which your
people can fix their hopes for pro-
gress and commercial advance
ment OF all kinds. As far as can
find there are no Objectionable
features to the measure. The
Indian cannot oppose it because he
gets ten fold benefits that are un-
known to him now. The white
man surely wants local self.govern-
m ent; schools for his children and
the benefits Of county government.
1 have studied the bill carefully
and can not see why every liberty
loving man in the Territory can
not come out boldly and declare
that his prosperity and the well
fare Of bis family can bepromoted
only through the acceptance OF the
proffered legislation. / stand for
the Moon bill without amendment.
II there are any flaws in the
measure we can have them ad-
justed through our delegate to
congress. Let ne get together and
get our self government first and
then amend or add any change
that We may desire. through our
representative on the floor of con-
grese. To defeat the Moon bill by
apathy now, means a continuation
Of The present status of affairs.
Indian Territory pending the ter
minalion Of tribal affairs in the
future must either stand still un-
der presen, conditions or progress
