MAS NO ILLUSION.

ROME, July 7.-Dr. Mazzoni this
morning at the vatican consulted
with Lapponi and then both went to
the sick room. The pope smiled
benevolently at Mazzoni. but did not
have strength enough to talk. In his
responsive greeting to Mazzoni the
pope said: II have no Illusion and
am resigned" and then raised his
eyes, evidently In prayer.
The pope expressed a desire to read
the two leading papers to see what
they were saying about his Illness.
Special editions were sent him. Car
dinal Oreglia begins to be the center
OF all vatican affairs, as it Is believed
that the time is short before he will

ROME, July Tit IL officially
stated this morning that the pope's
condition has become somewhat
worse. inasmuch as cyanosis OF the

pressed heart action and affecting the
kidneys. One point slightly in his
holiness favor Is the change in the
right side of his thorax. the middle

air to pass. The operation Of pune

iJNIMPROVED ROADS.
WHAT THEY COST THE FARMERS IN
THIS COUNTRY.

Some Facts by n Road EnGineer--A
Solution of the Problem - Hard
Times Traced Directly to Imprac-
ticabIe Highways.
The subject of good roads Is one In
which every inhabitant of the country
is personally interested, writes road
engineer in Good Roads Magazine.
Unless he produces on his farm every
article he uses, unless he receives no
mail, pays 10 taxes and never ventures
beyond the bounds of his own proper
ty. he is affected in the spot tenderest
to us all-his pocketbOok-Dy the con-
dition of the country roads. He pays
more taxes to keep up bad roads than
he would to maintain good roads. II
he receives mail it costs the govern
ment-and this means the people-more
TO carry it over bad roads than good
roads. If be travels beyond his own
property it takes more of his time,
which is money, and more out of his
team over bad roads than good ones.
1t costs him more on account of bad
roads to market produce. This extra
cost must be added to the cost OF pro-
duction, and the man who buys the
article must pay the difference. 1t
costs Just as much to grow a hushel
of wheat or corn near a good road as
beside q bad one, but if on the bad
road the producer can only haul two
thirds of the load with the same team
that he can on the good one his cost or
marketing his wheat or corn is % per
cent more than it otherwise would be,
and the man who buys the wheat or
corn must pay that much more. Ana
wheat or corn, oats or cotton, beef or
wool. the same thing applies. If all
the roads are bad all the producers la
Dor under the same disadvantage, and
the manufacturer pays the farmer the
extra price and then charges the farm
or higher sum in his turn for the
manufactured articles to make up for
It,
The problem seems capable of but
single solution. To the average farm
er the word bond is terrifying, but
It need not be. We all ask credit Of
our neighborS daily in some form or
other either as to our statements, rep
utations or financial affairs. Judge

There are many times when the de
mOraliZed condition of the business Of
this country can be traced directly to
bad roads Hard times, dull times, la
Dor unemployed, tluctuating prices, re-
duccd railroad earnings, spasmodic
speculation in stocks, corners in food
stuffs, are often the immediate results
Of bad roads. R. G. Dun & Co. Of New
York not long ago In review Of the
condition of trade said that 'the Strin-
gcncy in the money markets here and
at some other points is more largely
due to slow collections, which appear
to result from severe weather and i'm
practicable roads" than to anything
else. SO ii is the mud that rules the
land. SO great Il foe requires the unit
ed efforts of the people to dethronp it.
In this struggle every line Of business
in the land should he united. and there
is certainly no interest which has more
at stake in the success of this move
ment and which should be more deter
mined and active in urging the work
.~-ward than the farmers.
