A good roads convent, which has
been IN session in Albany, N. "
has endorsed a plan of road i'm
provement for that state which If
carried out will attract National at
tention and will have an important
bearing upon the good roads move
ment everywhere. The plan has
been prepared by the State Engin-
eering department and involves a
system of frst-class highways that
will connect all the important cities
and towns of the State by the best
up to date roads. 1t Is proposed to
carry out this scheme, If 1t can Sc.
cure the proper legal approval, at
an expense of $40, 900 900. The
plan Is that bonds shall be issued
by the State for one half of this
sum, that 81, 900, 900 of the remain
der shall be contributed by the
counties traversed by the roads and
the remaining $4,000, 900 by the
proposed improvement.
1t Is an ambitious project, and of
course, Is Is doubtful whether in
the present state of opinion it can
secure the requisite support, for it
is unfortunate that those who would
be most benefited by good roads
are the slowest to realize their ad.
vantages. But the movement Is
but one of many of greater or less
proportions In all parts of the coun-
try which 60 to show that the good
roads propaganda Is advancing and
that the country Is rapidly being
worked up to the point where op-
position will break down, and where
the same progressive spirit that has
changed the face of the country by
proving means of transportation by
water and rail will be allowed to
devote itself to the ordinary roads.

Selection Of city officials.


Selection of city Officials.
1t will be but a short time until
our citizens are called upon to
nominate and elect city officials for
the ensuing year. This naturally
suggests the question as to what
are the essentials of good govern
ment. One answer might be good,
honest officers. And probably
there would be no dispute that the
above Is one of the essentials. But
many people are too prone to make
good character, honesty of pur,
pose, intent to do right, the only
requirement TO be insisted upon.
It Is assumed, for instance, that any
honest man can make a good may
or. And the strange thing Is that
we do not so act In any other bust
ness except In public Office. If we
want general manager for store,
no matter how small the business
may be, We are not satisfied to en-
ploy man simply because he Is
honest. We want to know as to
his business capacity; and we don't
employ him unless we are satisfied
upon this point.
It may, however, be answered
that In public Office the duties are
epjoined by law. But surely this
Is very superficial view. Most of
our great manufacturing and bust
ness corporations have by laws and
rules and regulations to govern their
officers; but no one thinks this an
excuse for electing board of d.
rectors or general manager, with
out reference to business ability.
One of the prime essentials for
good municipal government Is
fitness" of the officers. And there
cannot be fitness without capacity
adequate to the duties of the Office.
The business interests entrusted to
the mayor and city council In Sis
tersville are much larger than those
entrusted to the officers Of any one
of our other corporations, and we
can have good city government
only when we select our city Of
fcers with the same care, and the
same reference to fitness, with
which we now select Our bank of
fcers and corporation managers
The object should be, regardless
of politics, the election of the very
best men possible to fill the differ
ent municipal Offices, aud to secure
the very best government obtain
able for the city. The government
Of a municipality Is clearly a mat
ter of business, first and last, and
should be conducted as strictly as
any we'll planed and properly Of
fcered business firm or corpora.
ton Is managed. Incapable and
unprogressive individuals have no
proper place In this matter. To a
very great degree, we are pleased
to note, the citizens of this city are
remarkably independent in their
voting, and are already In a frame
Of mind to act upon the best propo
sition that can the offered for the
advancement and welfare of sthe
city's interests. The convention
system may fail to secure such can
didates as should be elected, even
with the largest exercise of indie
pendent suffrage, hence the next
proper place to accomplish the good
work Is at the polls. Meanwhile
every good citizen should be active,
observant and do all in their power
for our rapidly growing city.

Blue and Gray Reunion.

The third annual reunion of the
veterans OF the Union aud Confeder-
ate armies at Bartlesville, will be
held on Wednesday, Thursday and
Friday. September 10, ii and p
three days.
The Bartlesville reunion grows in
magnitude and interest with each
succeeding year, and the indications
are that the approaching gathering
of the old soldiers and their friends
will outrank those OF the two pre-
ceeding years. The Bartlesyille re-
union is no longer purely local in
stitution, but it has broadened its
scope until it includes the Indian ter
ritory, Oklahoma and the adjacent
states.
This year preparations have been
made for the accommodation and en-
tertainment of big crowd of visitors.
An ample supply Of tents will be on
the grounds for the use of those W ho
desire to camp and rati0ns OF barbe-
cued beef will be issued free.
A large contingent OF the Vinita
veterans are expected to be in at
tendance.

Appendicitis Some Facts Regard
ing Its Rapid Increase.

Appendicitis among Americans is
certainly increasing and while this is
probably due to the excitement and
worry OF American business life, it is
more often directly traceable tn con-
stipation. Appendicitis is caused by
extraneous matter entering the ver-
inform appendix and not by the
swallowing OF seeds. If the digestive
organs are kept in perfect condition
so the food is duly assimulated and
the bowels move gently, at least once
day, appendicitis will never develop.
Don't take chances. Regular doses
of DR.. CaIdwell's Syrup Pepsin before
meals will strengthen the organs OF
digestion, your appetite will be good,
constipation disappears and you will
feel better in every way. DIR. Cald-
Wells Syrup Pepsin does not relax
the bowels by irritation, hut by cur
ing Indigestion, the cause of constipa-
tion. Peoples drug store sell it in SOC
and 81 bottles, under positive guar
antee. Write for book Of testimonials
