ENEMIES OF GOOD ROADS.

II
ErahF great and beneficial public
mcrernsnt must expect certain
amount Of annoyance from small
bore persons who drag in their pet
bigosries, regardless of time and
place. Unable to obtain hearing
in any other way, they turn up in a
large convention and spring their
hobby, regardless Of the true objects
Of the gathering. Ex-G0v. HOgg Of
Texas, in this way, imposed his ideas
touching the Philippines upon the
national and international good roads
convention. Not dozen persons in
the United Stakes care what Hogg
thinks about the acquisition and
retention Of the Philippines. That
business was attended to by Amer
casl citizens of different order from
Hogg. He was one of the frothy
opponents of the imperialism that
never existed, and that has dropped
out Of live issues because it was
utterly ridiculous. Good roads
might be obtained to some extent by
selling a part Of the national terri
tory. but the idea has occurred to
nobody but the Texan with vocal
facilities entirety disproportionate to
his wit.
Hogg wants to improve roads by
giving up the Philippines just as
another Southern speaker, affected
with the same intellectual hitter ret,
proposes 70 stop river improvement
and spend the money on roads. The
convention simply ignored these
speakers, chasing them with natural
phenomena akin to mosquitoes, and
proceeded with It's important work
on its proper level. Unless certain
indications fail, a few delegates
attended the convention not to help
good rosds, but TO stir up a Tasty
political muss. They are played
out in political conventions and so
60 to other assembIages to force
their views on surprised and
unwilling audience. To the extent
of his small ability, Hogg did all
that he could to turn the good roads
convention into a caucus of repud-
lated party. But the good roads
movement viii 60 forward ON its
merits without needing such freaks.

wall Street has begun an one

Wall Street has begun an open
campaign against the denomination
of President Roosevelt The oppo-
sition of this powerful. financial cen
ter is based upon the decision in the
railroad Merger case. The law
upon which this decision is based i
not an enactmentof President Roose-
relt's administration nor was he IN
any manner connected with it until
the Merger case came up. There
seems to be desire on the part OF
Wall Street to have any man other
than Roosevelt. Expressions from
that quarter inform US that even
though the president should receive
the delegation he cannot carry the
state at the polls. While Wall
Street exerts great influence in
New York we have as yes not so lost
faith in the people as to believe that
they viii vote against a candidate
for president, or for any other Office,
because he enforces the laws as he
found them. But should New York
do this it would be to her own dis
grace and she would profit nothing
for the other eastern states, the
middle west and werteFn states viii

One Of the pet arguments of those
who are kicking on appropriations
Of the late Legislative session is that
in the appropriation Of $4,000 for
wolf bounty deficiencies, the eastern
part of the state is being taxed to
pay claims on the range counties.
The figures on which this appropri-
ation were based show that Of the
total less than $4,000 Of it goes to
the counties west of the river, and
$1,000 to the counties along the
river on the east side from Charles
Mix north. The res. goes to tho
counties in the eastern part of the:
state, practically every county being
represented in the list.

ence ii is possible to conceive.
Their dwellings are always wet,
owing to the melting of the ice walls
and floor. For full six months of the
year the darkness of the arctic night
~envelops them. The ice is around them,
beneath them, above them. In nine
cases out of ten if they venture abroad
they breathe the frozen particles, and
the sensation is akin to that which
comes from inhaling the blast Of a fur
mace.
Nevertheless they refuse to move far
Their south with the approach of win
ter, as do all the other Eskimo tribes.
They take a sort of perverted pride in
their loneliness as in their misery.
"What matter" they say, "if we are
cold and hungry? We are the last OF
all peoples. We dwell literally at the
end of the world. To the north of US

been an absolute necessity, for the
medieval dinner was a mine of sur
prises. 1t was divided into courses, as
are our owl dainty meals, but whereas
nowadays the diner has a general idea
that fish will follow soup and that en-

conceive generally the sort Of demand
that each course will make upon his
appetite and digestion, there was no
possible arguing as to what was going
