ohio Republicans and Beet Sugar In-
duStry Men Unanimous for
Good Roads

The progress that Is being made by
the good roads movement is indicated
by the action of state legislatures and
conventions in favor of road improve
ment. The action of the recent repub-
lican state convention in Ohio in unani-
mously adopting strong good roads
plank indicates the force and popular
ity which this movement has acquired
in the north. This is the first time
such stand has been taken by Ohio
republicans since the birth of the party.
Mr.. Charles F. Saylor, special agent
of the government for the investiga-
tion of the sugar industry, who has
Travelled through nearly all the north
ern and western states in the prosecu-
tion of his work, recently expressed the
results of his observations as follows:
Probably no other subject of inter
est to the rural population is receiving
more attention throughout the nation
than that Of road improvement. One
of the fundamental needs of society is a
ready means OF communication. The
experiment stations of the country are
now engaged in experimental work and
actual demonstration with a view to
stimulating the public mind and pro-
~oting the best and cheapest systems
OF good road building with local mate
rial, state legislatures are enacting bet
ter laws, and in some cases the princi-
pie OF state aid has been adopted. The
federal government has established an
/ nffiRn nf nIIhlir fyn ri in -
department of agriculture Literature
has been prepared and distributed for
the education of the people on this sub
ject.
There is nothing that will work so
effectually for good roads as necessity,
the mother of invention. When a beet
sugar factory is established farmers at
once discover the necessity of good
roads. Agitation begins, public meet
ings are held, and every public high
way becomes the object of solicitous at
tention. 1t is found that the farmer
requires at least four horses, and must
deliver from two and a half to four tons
of beets per load If he is to accomplish
the best results in the saving of time
and expense. Neighbors talk over road
improvement and the idea becomes in
fectious. A public meeting is called,
public roads are discussed, and an or
ganization is effected which goes to
work for the improvement of the roads
Among the interesting features OF my
work of promoting the progress OF beet
sugar industry, is attendance at these
local meetings, at which roads and
other subjects pertinent to the needs Of
these beet-growing districts are consid-
cred. Permanent road building is one
of the most important matters com
monty discussed"
Reports from all sections indicate
that the question of road improvement
is one of the most popular subjects of
discussion in farmers meetings of all
kinds, and state and national aid are
being generally indorsed. The farm
ers are beginning to see that they have
not received their share of attention
from the national government, and to
demand substantial recognition in the
way of federal aid and cooperation in
the improvement of the rural highways.

OId-Time Railroad wreck

The next morning burly farmer hmpcd

"Mr. Superintendent, | came in to see

to have for his injuries. well, ! think it
is worth 80 cents, and / will settle for that. "
The superintendent replied that 1t was quite
a sum, but as the man seemed honest ne
would pay him, and DE did so, taking his
receipt in full. The superintendent said:

NOW ARE FOR arbitration.
Have Enough Of Negotiating With
Minister Bowen.
PREFER ROOSEVELT TO HAGUE.

Washington, Feb. 7.-Irritated by
the note of Minister Bowen, Venezue-
las representative, addressed to the
British ambassador refusing to accept
the allies proposal for a scheme of
preferential payments by which Great
Britain, Germany and Italy were to
receive 20 per cent and the remaining
eight creditor nations 10 per cent of
the customs of La Guayra and Porto
Cabello, the allied powers have in
structed their represen tatives here to
submit the question of preferential
treatment for settlement to President
Roosevelt, and in the event that he
declines to act as arbiter, to take this
and possibly the entire Venezuelan
question to The Hague for settlement,
thereby breaking off negotiations With
Minister Bowen.
The British ambassador expects to
have an interview with the secretary
of state, whom he will sound as to the
proba bility of the presidents acceptance
of the allies request If it is found
that President Roosevelt is not dis
posed to allow himself to be dragged
into the negotiations, the instructions
of the allies are such as to permit
them to forego the embarrassment of
rejection at the hands of Mr.. ROOse-
Welt, and instead of making known
their wishes to him, steps will be
taken to draw up protocol with Mr..
Bowen for reference of the case to
The Hague, as suggested by him in his
note of last Monday.
The British ambassador was the first
of the representatives to receive in
structions to this effect and the matter
was discussed at the monday confer
ence between the three representatives
of the allies.
1.-The Hague tribunal" said one Off
cial of the administration, ''has all
along been kept in sight as a port of
safety in case the negotiations here
were not productive of a final settle
ment, and as for the suggestion that
the president act as arbiter, that has
been favorite idea of the allies since
the beginning of the trouble"
Whether President Roosevelt will
accept this invitation of the allies is
not known.
