GOVERNMENT AID IN RoADBuILDlNG

The State Grange OF Maryland is the
first Of the State Oranges to follow the
National Grange in demanding that the
government aid in improving the highways.
At a meeting in Baltimore recently a
strong resolution on this subject was
adopted, and Master J. B. Ager in his an
nual address said:
There seems to be great interest at this
time all over the state in regard to good
roads Ii is said that the government has
expended 5000 600 in improving the
rivers and harbors and proposes TO spend
5000 100000 in building the isthmian ca
nal Therefore, we believe something
should be appropriated to assist the farm
ers in building permanent highways.
According to Secretary Wilson'S report,
the farmers have aided the government
very materially. Discussing the balance of
trade, the secretary says that the favorable
balance of trade to the credit OF this coun-
try is due entirely TO the farmers. The
balance OF trade in the farm products dur
ing the last "a years, no year excepted,
aggregated $4,So6,ooo,ooo in products.
Other than the farm products during the
same period, the balance Of trade was adj
verse to this country to the extent OF
$S65,ooo,ooo. Our farmers not only can
celed this immense obligation, but placed
5000 100000 to the credit OF the nation,
when the books of the international cx-
changes were balanced. He concludes
that it is the farmers that have paid the
foreign bondholders. Now, why should not
the government aid the farmers in the
construction OF roads, 1t is shown by
careful estimates that it cost 5000, 900 900
to haul the products OF the farm to rail
way stations, rivers and canals which is
vastly more than it costs TO maintain
100000 miles Of railway, and by careful es-
Inmates the cost could be reduced one half.
| have no doubt that on some roads it
could be reduced much more"

Though-mssn' old famyar forms gone

Through its low song thar runs plaintive

coupons will be given only for legitimate
subscriptions. If you want a special
coupon you must turn in, with the money,
a genuine name and address to which the
paper will be sent for the period specified.
Mere contributions OF money are not

or you do not get the coupons BY recol-

bother.
One thing is assufci That the 80
young ladies the Inter Mountain will take
as its guests to the Worlds Fair at St.
Louis next year will be the most thor
oughly representative excursion that will
go from this or any other far Western
state. Every one Of the 20 counties in
the state will be represented by an actual
resident Of that county. The character
Of the nominations is such tnat il is GER
tain she will be thoroughly representative

THE INTER MOUNTAINS CONTEST

Three weeks from tonight the Inter
Mountains Worlds Fair tour contest will
close. To date very nearly 100000 votes
have been cast in it, and indications are
that the total vote, by the time the CON
test closes, win far exceed 900 900.
The Inter Mountain is proud Of this
contest, proud of the character of the
contestants, proud OF the excellent object
for which the young ladies are contesting,
and especially proud of the fair and just
manner in which the race is being con-
Quoted. In this connection, now that the
contest is SO near its close, it would be
well to impress on the friends of the
young ladies one point. You cannot buy
votes for your particular candidate.
Ii is true that in many newspaper con-
tests somewhat resembling this, friends
Of candidate come in at the last mo-
mcnt with large sum of money, purchase
coupons and thus win victory for their
fsyorite, Nothing of this sort will be
permitted in the Inter Mountain contest.
An impression is gaining, ground in GER
tain quarters that the special coupons,
offered for paid in advance subscriptions.
can be procured in this manner. It will
he well for the persons holding this idea
q get it out of their heads. Special

"A Chinese Honeymoon,"

The musical event of the season will be
the first presentation at the Broadway
next Monday, January d. of "a Chinese
Honeymoon Speaking Of it, "a Chinese
Honeymoon" continues to go merrily along
in New York and other principal Eastern
cities. The critics Of each city are salts
fled that the company appearing in that
particular city is the best Of the twin or
ganizatons now on tour. That is the
strongest kind Of compliment for the de-
lightful musical comedy. II is the most
conclusive argument in support of William
Shakespeare's declaration, 'The plays the
thing" and later one anonymous said that
good parts make good actors" Still for
all that. Managers Sam S. Shubert and
Nixon K Zimmerman believe in engaging
only the best artists, and a glance at the
roster Of both Honeymoon companies
show that they have each a strong list of
truly good players, particularly picked for
the roles assigned them.
