A-Congressman zeuoH has been
making a tour Of the counties of the
Sd district, looking after his pros
poets Tor . 10 nomination next year.
Hon. Smith Askren. late Senator,
says the only reason he was not a
candidate Tor the nomination two
years ago, was because the con-
gresham said he would not ask
another nomination, and the Louis
vile Courier-JouTnal, of Friday last
publishes an interview with Askren
in which the latter says he will be q
candidate for the nomination, sure,
in 1904. II is said Fortune, of
Clark county, will also be candi.
date for the nomination, and that
Washington county will present q
favorite son, also, and Dubois
county will ask the Democracy to
nominate that true and able Demo-
crat, Hon. VIM. +. Cox. There is
plenty Of good timber to select from,
some Democrat whose abilities will
make him a leader in congress. so
that the congressman it seems
needs to look after his fences, as
the political pot begins to boil.
There are a number of big ques-
tons to be solved by the next con-
gress-whether the government
shall control the banks or the banks
the government-how the Trusts
are to be prevented from making
slaves ofthe common people-where
the inter-ocean canal shall be dug
whether public officers shall be per-
United to loot the Treasury, and

question is one for every voter to de-
eide for himself, whether be thinks
the nine foot road-just wide enough
for one wagon-will benefit him the
amount of tax he will have to pay,
Il the donation carries. To deter
mine this he must remember the
amount his property is assessed for
taxation. The sum asked for the
nine foot hump in the middle of the
nine highways, lie about four per ct
of his total valuation for taxation.
Counting an additional four per cent.
for repairs the first FIVE years, the
person who is assessed on 500 will
have to pay 50 additional in taxes,
If . majority votes for the nine foot
hump; the one whose little home is
assessed at $500, and who scarcely
ever uses the road, will have to pay
$40; while the small farmer who is
assessed on 81 900 valuation, must
pay $50, and in like proportion as
the valuation increases. Is a nine
foot road worth the money asked to
be voted to il?
The larger part of the money will
have to be paid to the Crawford CO.
quarries for the crushed rock, and
to the Southern railway for trans
porting it. These roads are an ex-
pertinent 1t best, much depending
for their permanence and solidity
