Rfe MoNRY FOR ROADS.

There is pending in Congress bill
called the Brownlow Bill, introduced by
Hon. Walter P. Brownlow, of Tennessee.
which appropriates $24 600, GOO as ma
tional aid for the building of wagon
roads. This sum is to be available at
the rate Of $4,000, 900 year; is to be di-
vided according to the population of
the different states, bat no state is to
receive less than $3.50, 0OO Every state
receiving National aid must appropriate
ana spend q like amount
The asserted growth or sentiment in
favor of the measure has been chiefly
due TO the institution and extension OF
the rural free mail delivery system,
which has brought the disadvantages OF
moor roads home to the farmers and
other country jewellers, Applications
for the extension of the free rural de-
livery system are being refused by the
postoffice authorities on account of the
roads, and the disappointed conmuni-
ties demand their improvement. These
demands are so in excess Of the ability
of the local boards to respond 10 that for
year past highway commissioners all
over the country have been putting
themselves on record in favor of Ma
tioual aid.
In Is claimed on behalf Of the bill that
the plan of distribution is more eqnlt-
able than the distribution OF some sS2,
500. 900 year under the rivers and hsr'
bors bill. which goes principally to the
seabosrd states and TO the Mississippi
delta.
In support Of the Brownlow Bin IS q
general measure, attention il called 70
Inc fact that France has 23.603 miles OF
wagon road which are hni and main
famed by the nation, and Italy sbout
4 OOO miles. while many of the states OF
the Union spend hundreds Of thousands
of dollars annually in aid Of highway
improvements.

MILWAUKEE, OFFICIAL BooDLERs.

The Milwaukee grand jury, which has
been in session for the past month, was
discharged by law limitation on Satur-
day last. Such a mess Of official cor
ruption. mostly petty grating, has not
been unearthed since the days Of Boss
Tweed in New York The jury indict-
cd thirty-two different individuals on
fifty true bills. All Of the indicted have
ing been arrested and bound over to
court. The list of men charged with
official boodling, includes one state SEN
ator, five aldermen, FIVE ex-aidermen,
SIX supervisors. one ex-supervisor, three
other officials.
The state senator under indictment is
Barney A. Eaton, who represents one of
the Milwaukee districts in the upper
branch Of the legislature. He is one Of
those popular good fellows, elected on
a written declaration 80 stand by Gov
ernor La Toilette primary election,
equal taxation for corporations and in
dividuals and other policies declared for
by the last republican state convention.
1t is no injustice to him to say that he
probably entertained no idea of standing
by his declarations in favor of the people,
but like his class of politicians, sought
support of an honest constituency only
to betraY their trust. And he is Stall
wart of the $talwartS Eaton was in
dicted on three charges, two for accept
ing and one for soliciting brides at the
last session of the Legislature.
To the Milwaukee Free Press. that
most fearless and courageous Of Wiscon-
sin papers, is due largely the credit for
unearthing this official crookedness and
boodling. In an article it states that
this record of wholesale arrests does not
begin to give a comprehensive idea of
the actual work of the jury which has
Just closed its labors. These men who
have been indicted and arrest cd are for
the most part the small fry. The net is
believed to have been successfully laid
for bigger game, the smooth and oily
hoodlers who have fattened greatly OF
the legitimate interests of ths public,

RABcOcK Is SCARED.

Madison State: The republican con-
gressional committee of the Third dis
trict met in this city yesterday and at
the request Of Congressman Babcock fix
ed the date for the next convention
which will be held at Baraboo on March
3D. This early date is without preee-
Dent in the political history of Wiscon-
sin, and in calling the convention thus
early, Mr.. Babcock confesses that every
day it might be postponed lessons his
chances for another nomination. The
people are tired of j. w. Babcock but
he hopes through the aid of the railway
corporations, purchased newspapers,
federal Office holders and the use of mon.
ey to overcome the wishes Of the people
and hold place in congress that his son
declared to be worth SIS 600 a year
Caucuses will be held within the next
three weeks, and the willy congressman
counts on the inclemency of the weather
to keep the bulk of the voters at home,
while his army of paid retsiners viii see
that their friends are on hand rain or
shine" to save their chief from the in
1ignation OF the people whose trust he
has bssely betrayed and turned 10 his
own profit. Calling congressional
convention on the Sd Of March is trick.
and the author of it should be dealt with
in way to deter others from following
his example.

Senator Hanna, the big political boss
Of Ohio. and the special friend of the
trusts and corporations, is directing ev-
cry effort to the sending of an unin.
,structed delegation to the National con-
wention from Ohio. This will be done
IA all the states possible. with the hope
that tts brave and honest Roosevelt may

big fellows" get together at the con-
vention. This is just exactly what will
be attempted il the Staiwsrt crowd con-

is little possibility of their doing if
the people have their say. And we may
expect 7 w. Babcock to have hand in

brated his 89th birthday on last
Thursday. He gave a very
elaborate dinner to a party of
friends at his home at the corner
Of Lafayette and Catfish Al
ley" South. This is the way
Mr.. Johnston designates his To-
cation since the naming and
numbering of the streets. The
dinner consisted of several
courses, a wine suitable for each
course being served. T e
sparkling champagne" was the
climax and the little assembly of
friends, consisting of choir sing
ers, stewards and deacons, in
dulged in a spirited" political
discussion after dinner. AS is
usual, the character of refresh
ments made them unanimous in
their vote that it was the Best"
dinner they ever ate.
At night the local lodge of
Elks rendered Mr.. Johnston an
informal reception at their Home
on Main street Cards and mu-
sic were the amusements during
the evening. A very beautiful
meat course was served consist
ing of roast turkey, roast beef,
lettuce and tomato salad, celery
and broiled quail, olives and
pickles. AS a drink, the party
was literally supplied with
''Elk's Milk. !" Mr.. Johnston
spent a happy day, receiving
congratulations from his many
friends at home and abroad.

many returns.

Owing to the vast amount of wet
weather, farmers are very much
behind with their work. A few
have planted corn, while others are
not through breaking the ground
preparatory to planting. But while
it is somewhat later than farmers
usually plant corn, the season is
just now right for planting.
The transition during the past
ten days has been very marked,
indeed. To-day the forest pre-
sents a pleasing panorama to a
lover of nature, this lovely vale
being a carpet of living green, not
perhaps eXcelled for beauty and
grandeur anywhere, with the pos
sible exception of Southern Cali
fornia, where the writer, years ago,
spent several months. 1t may be
truly said that the sanitary con-
ditions of this locality are hard to
excel. Occasionally some re-
markable cures have been recorded
solely from a change of scenery,
and not from general climatic con-
dltlons, as some people appear to
think.
A. G. Meyer and daughter, Miss
Letha, made a trip to Ironton
Saturday.
Rev. Mr.. Davis visited Mr.. and
Mrs. j. A. Ramsey last week.
Mrs. Price Ringo, of Arcadia,
visited her parents, Mr.. and Mrs.
Van Mort, last week.
Misses Leota and Ethel Hawkins
are attending the training school
in Ironton.
The Second Baptist people gave
a literary entertainment in their
church house last Saturday night,
and while the announcement was
not published, the attendance was
very large, the house being
crowded. The programme was
lengthy and, in the main, was
fairly well rendered, rejecting
credit on Mrs. Sallie Edmonds,
who, l am informed, had charge
of the whole affair. One does not
fear contradiction when he says
that Belleview proper has some
good literary talent, which, if
properly cultivated, would lead
the possessors thereof to fame
the line of literature.
Died-Not long ago, the infant
of DR.. and Mrs. Farrar. The
remains of the little one were taken
to the cemetery at Russellyille for
interment. p.
