THE COUNTY ROAD QUESTION.

THE COUNTY ROAD QUESTION.
The magistrates of the county are
to have before them at the term of ifs.
cal court this week, question Of par
amount Importance. They are to de.
>-cide whether or. no the veters in Nc
Craoken county may vote on issuing
bonds for the permanent improvement
of county roads. This question is
non-partisan, and every good citizen,
including the magistrates should at
least be in favor of allowing the peo-
pie to vote their sentiments. The
members Of fiscal court are not to be
asked to vote bonds, which they could
not do if they desired, nor should they
be asked to pass on the advisability of
issu ing them. but merely on the ques-
tion whether or not to allow the peo-
pie to vote on the bond question. If q
majority at the election oppose it,that
will end il. II majority favor it, il
! is pretty fair indication that the
county would make no mistake in is
suing the bonds.
The county road question is one
that hes long hsrrsssed the county au-
thorities. There is but one solution
to it. and that is TO get the best pos
sible roads for the least possible mon
ey. Every merchant, and every other
good citizen as well and every resident
of the county, should be interested
in the county road question. The
better roads there are. the more fire.
quent the visit OF farmers to the city,
and the more frequent the visits. the
more business will be transacted.
Good roads would not only enable
merchants in the city to transact
more business and increase their pro-
fits, but enable the farmers and pro-
ducers to bring more to the city to
sell, and by increasing the market
supply of what they raise, sell more
and enable the good people to buy at
CHEAPER prices.
The effect of bad roads is often dis
cernable. The farmer cannot get 10
town, or does not want to take the
trouble on account of the almost i'm
passible roads, and often the only pro-
duce procurable is that bought up by
the enterprising huckster and sold at
almost prohibitiv prices, or shipped
in from other cities. The supply is
thus oorralled and sold at whatever
prices the dealers choose. They have
no competition, and the 10000 people
who have to eat every day thus directly
feel the effects.
Better roads would benefit the
farmer just as much as they would
benefit the citizen. If he needs roads
at all, he needs good ones. Good roads
cost more money than bad roads and
the question that now arises is how to
get good roads.
For several years the amount Of
money spent on the roads has been

JURY SAY DEATH
 DUE TO ACCIDENT

A coroner's jury in Judge Rogers court this afternoac found that William H, Joy came 10 his death from the ef- fleets of wounds caused by the acciden- tai discharge of a rifle and from fall of 500 feet down the side of mountain in the vicinity of Denver glacier,
 Dr. Brawand and Dr. Runnalls made an autopsic examination and testi- fled that death was caused by the con gestion of the brain, and that the blow from the bullet or fall would have caused the congestion.
 Several witnesses were examined by the court and jury, including among them Louis Joy, who was with hls father, Williams, one of the woodchop- pers, who went to the body the night of the accident and two or three of the men who recovered the body yester- day. Little that has not been pub lished was brought out, except the fact that from the place of the dis charge of the rifle to the place where the body was found was about 800 feet, and that the body was 50 feet below the place when Louis left his father; and it was established that Mr. Joy had recov- cred sufficiently after his son had left him to get up only to fall again.
 It was conceded by all who heard the testimony that Louis had acted the part of hero, and that in leaving his father after being with him for three-quarters of an hour, he had done the best possi- ble thing under the circumstances from his point of view.
 The funeral will be he'd Sunday af- terncon at l o'clock fir n the Meiho- dist church. The Rev. Dr John Par sons will conduct the services and he will be assisted by Rev. N. B. Harrison.
