To Build Roads.

One Of the most commendable
projects ever started in Idaho coun-
ty is the one now being organized
by the citizens living west . d
south west Of Grangeviile to build
. good road from this city to White
Bird. They propose to get tOgeth-
err, select the route, and then build
the road themselves with the aid Of
contributions from those benefited.
This is the only way in which good
roads can be had and the sooner
the people realize it the better II
will be for all concerned.
The present state law prohibits
she levying OF more than six mills
for road purposes and with the
number of miles of road in this
county only about So . mile could
come from this source. This is not
enough to make any noticeable i'm
provement and as there does not
seem to be q disposition to bond
the county for road purposes there
is but one thing to do, and that ii
for the people to take hold and
build their own roads. It will re.
quire a great deal OF work but
many will give work who could
not give money and everyone who
is honestly interested in the de
velopment of the country will d.
something.

Editor Is Freed.

Joseph Daniels, editor Of q South
Carolina paper, who has been in
Jail for several days for refusing to
pay q fine of $1,000 assessed against
him for contempt Of court, is a
free man once more. Mr.. Daniels
was fined because he criticised a
U. 8. judge for his action in APP
pointing receivers in q North Caro-
lima railroad. That the criticism
was perfectly justified ID apparent
from the fact that the appointment
of the receivers was overruled by
Chief Justice Fuller Of the United
States supreme court.
But the judge who fined MI.
Daniels could not be persuaded to
e the error of HE way. Then
the cas- was taken before another
judge, who promptly ordered the
release of the editor. We believe
his action will be generally approx
ed. Honest newspaper criticism
OF q judge, even OF . U. 8. judge,
is not properly contempt Of court.
Judges r IS prone to err as other
m~ortals, and to call attention to
their errors is az proper rs to call
atte ntion to the errors of other
people.
The supreme court of the United
States has been frankly, fearlessly,
even brutality criticised by news
papers at various times. Yet the
supreme court does not cite It'd
critics for contempt and imposes
fin es upon them. II it did, il
might have to fine some of its OWE
m embers, for members of the su'
preme court have, in dignified opin'
ions, taken other members sharply
to task. Not an important unani.
nous decision has been handed
down by this, the highest tribunal
in the land, for years. Very often
q single Justice turns the scale.
One side or the other is wrong
every time. If, therefore, the
judges disagree among them selves
why is it not proper for newspap.
ers to take one side or another
After long service on the bench
judges seem to get the notion thai
they r on q plane far above ordi
nary mortals, that the slightest ad'
verse comment on one of their acts
is an attack on the majesty of tn.
law as represented by their august
persons. Then offenders are hauled
into. court, and if they are unable
to employ counsel or to put up u
fight they are fined or sent tc
jail for contempt.
We do not believe our Judges
should be the subject of i'll natured
captious criticism, but press and
public have the right to disagree
with them and to say so.-Salt
Lake Herald.

ply On i'm Philadelphia.
Philadelphia, Sept. 2S.-Before a
crowd that filled the National Athletic
Club tonight, Hughey McGovern and
Tommy Murphy Of New York fought
six of the fastest rounds ever wit
messed in this city. Under the law no
decision can be rendered here, but it
was the opinion of the spectators that
the bout was a good draw.
There was only one knockdown dur
ing the entire contest, and that was
at the beginning Of the first round,
when Murphy went down from a right
swing to the jaw. He was up again
in a moment, however. and returned
the blow with another which opened a
cut over McGovern's eye.
Murphy was the aggressor at the
start, but McGovern did not seek to
avoid him at any time, and the ex-
change of blows was rapid and severe
all the time the men were on their
feet.
At the end OF the bout both showed
signs of WEAKNESS and distress. but
neither had at any time secured. de-
cided advantage.

WAS HUNG ON A
STEELYARD BEAM
11-YEAR-oLD BOY STRANGLED
FOUND ny HIS MOTHER HANGING
LIFELESs AT END OF STEELYARD.

George Carter, SON of n Lowndes
County Farmer, Was Playing with
His Little Brother Around a Cot
ton Scales. and Was Caught in
His shirt Collar On n Hook MT
End of SteeIyard and Choked to
Death.
Valdosta, Ga, Sept. 2S.-The 11-year-
old son of George c. Carter, a farmer,
met death in a peculiar manner yes
terday. The boy, together with a
younger brother, was playing around
an old-fashioned steel yard used for
weighing cotton, and it is supposed
they attempted to weigh themselves on
the beam, with the result that the
older boy was caught on the end of
1t and strangled to death.
The smaller boy was unable to res
cue his brother and ran to his mother
crying. She hurried to the out house.
where the children had been playing
and found her boy hanging by his
shirt collar on the hook at the end of
the steel yard. His feet were several
inches from the floor and life was ex-
tinct when she succeeded in releasing
the body. The smaller child was un-
able to give an intelligent account of
the manner in which the accident &C.
Cured, and it is a mystery how the
boy managed to hook himself on the
beam.
