WIDE TIRE LAWS.

why They Are Needed For the Tm-
proyement of Roads.
In the st:,te of New York, as well as
in other states. many of the practical
road users are asking why there are
no state laws making the general adop-
ton Of wide tires on all wagons built
to carry load Of 4 ton or more COM
pulsory. 1t is well known fact that
narrow tires carrying heavy load cut
the road surface, making ruts. thereby
letting in the water, which when frozen
results in ruin to the road. says the
Good Roads Magazine. The use Of
wide tires, on the other hand, through
the constant process of rolling. is
benefit to the road. In foreign couu-
tries, especially France, which enjoys
the proud distinction of having the
best roads in the world, the use Of
wide tires is required by law.
The reason assigned for the fact
that wide tire bills have not been more
generally adopted in the United States
Is that 1t would mean the expenditure
of money on the part of all owners OF
wagons, and as these wagon owners
are voters the question would become
political, and a legislator would not
dare vote for law which would conf
pei his constituents to spend money id
buying wide tires, for it might mean
that he would not again be elected to
Office. Such situation is Of course
absurd. Nevertheless no extensive i'm
without the adoption of wide tire
act. Cutting up and destroying the
highways constructed with the peoples
money at great expense Is a wanton
waste, and wide tire laws as a pre-.
ventive measure are absolutely neces-
sary.

most needed. of course, where the roads
are most used, especially in the vicinity
Of cities. 1t Is there that the highways
are most frequented by strangers o.
the localities where the roads are Often
permitted to go unmarked. In these
days Of many automobiles and much
use Of interurban and suburban trolley
cars an ever increasing number Of city
dwellers are apt to take outings withM
fifty or sixty miles Of home. They find
unknown and unmarked roads a draH

points as road names and road guide

Marking Country Roads.

The talk of general naming and
marking of country roads ought not to
be permitted to end in talk, says Motor
News. 1t is too important that high
ways in the country should be carefully
designated and suitable guideboards
erected and maintained by the proper
authorities. Such aids to travellers are

does not find his pathway strewn with
flowers, and his diplomatic ability is
put to the test. This Is due in part to
the desire of the politicians for office
and the rivalry for the fat places be-

When the Americans took charge in
Cuba for the second time the Moder-
ates held practically all the offices. 1t

on the suburbs located so as to afford adequate railroad facilities, and I think you will find that nearly every other dealer in Montgomery is decided on something like this in case they do not get the union yards.
 "As to the question of union yards. it is a difficult thing to establish and it has never been operated successfully in any city except St. Louis. don't know what other dealers of Montgom cry are going to do. They may join ir erecting union yards. but 1t is req sonably certain that we are out Of such a project"
 w M Francis, large stock dealer on Lee Street. favors union yards. hut he believes that the project will fall through unless every dealer In Mont gomery can be induced to join.
 "Yes" said MT. Francis. .1 am heartily in favor of union yards 1T we can get everybody to come in, but or course 1t would be no good otherwise. In case such proposition cannot be put through. we will have to find some quarters for the unloading and stor. ing of our stock on the outskirts Of the city.
 Tn reference to the mule ordinance, i. has most certainly not worked a hardship on us. If the ordinance had rot been adopted we would have been compelled to hunt quarters on the edge of the city. I want to say that such a warehouse will not interfere with our business down town"
 It will be remembered that John w. Chastain, a well known mule and horse dealer, recently sold his stables on Washington Aveune. and announced that A movement was on foot for union wards. He is heartily in favor of such \ project and believes 1t can be accomplished.

LIVE STOCK YARDS
DEALERS APPEAR TO BE DIVIDED
 ON PROJECT.
They May Acquire Independent Ware houses on Edge of City for Hand-
 ling Mules and Horses.

It is doubtful if the mule and horse dealers of Montgomery will join in the construction of union stock yards on the outskirts of the city, but, in case such yards are not built 1t is practi- cally certain that the different stock dealers will individually build stock houses on the suburbs. so that mules and horses may be easily unloaded In large lots and stored away until need ed by the dealers for retail trade in the city.
 According to the, statement made yesterday by Henry Abraham. of Abra- ham Brothers, among the largest stock dealers in Montgomery. it seems that this firm is determined not to join in union stock yards and 1t appears that there will be no union yards unless Abraham Brothers go into the arrange ment.
 we have no intention of going into a union stock yard" said Henry Abra- ham. We have thought the matter over thoroughly and have come tO the conclusion that such an arrangement would be disadvantageous to our busi- ness. Nevertheless. we are figuring on security our own yards or warehouses

TO MAN THE FORTS
THREE HUNDRED ARTILLERYMEN
 ARRIVE IN PENSACOLA.
Little Additional Information in Regard to the Death of the Ackermens-- Believed That Murder
 Was Done.

Pensacola. Fla. May 17.-(Special) Over three hundred artillerymen ar rived here this morning from New York and other points and went to Fort Barrancas from this city, where they will in future be stationed. The men arrived on a special train and were worn out after their long ride in the cars.N
 The arrival of these men makes the total at the post larger than ever be- fore known, fully eight hundred men now being stationed at Barrancas, Pickens. and McRae. A number of ar tillerymen, however. have recently been discharged. their enlistments hav- ing expired, while others will be dis charged during the next few weeks.
 The Eighth Artillery Band. which Is stationed at the post. has been tenn porarily transferred to Fort Morgan The men were taken to that place on the steamer Poe. where they will re- main for about one month.
