Governor Folk wisely hesitates to
call a special session Of the Legislature

sentiment upon this subject chrys-

eral information as to the plans
adopted by other states where ma

is no unanimity Of sentiment as to
general road legislation desired.
Everybody wants good roads and some
are willing to pay for them according
to any reasonable plan. Some want
them and are unwilling to pay Tor
them according to any plan, Some
counties are so heavily in debt that
they are unwilling to vote bonds
or submit to an increased tax levy.
Some counties out Of debt in good
state Of public improvement are will

osition by which the roads can be
permanently improved at once, or as
fast as the work,,can be done. Others
would rather attempt the work by

further fact that mlny of these
counties passed in the same connec-

The Bryan resolutions are by no
means confined to counties which

that Bryan for president and Folk
for governor are two entirely different

Missouri democrats are for Bryan

estimate.

The INTELLIGENCER is in receipt
Of the annual report Of the state
game and fish warden, a pamphlet Of
81 pages generously illustrated.
Mr.. Rodes evidently has a high
opinion Of the Importance Of his

From this it may be seen that 9SS
licenses have been issued in Lafayette
county to resident hunters between
July 1905 and Jan. 1, 1906 Within
that period S4s, $50. 70 was received
through licenses and fines and
81, 99S.3S expended. The balance
on hand at latter date was $50, 932.37.
1t is nearly twice as much now

The democratic convention Of Ran.
dolph county this week adopted a
resolution committing the party to
late primaries 10 the future-prima-
ries not earlier than August. Evi.
IDENTIFY there have been bitter com.
plants in Randolph about "mid-
winter primaries, approximations, T"
''shut outs" etc. The Randolph
county democrats have probably for
gotten the evils Of late primaries
the expense to the candidates, the
inconvenient and Objectionable house
to house canvass In the rural districts
during the farmers busy season, the
grating iof street corner politicians
who have a little influence which they
might exert 'if 1t we're made worth
their WHILE" etc, There are some
things in favor Of the late summe
primary. But when Randolph tries
it again it may appear that these ad.
vantages are not what they are re-
remembered to have been. They may
be a product Of the Homerlc spirit OF
glorifcation Of the past, when cher.
ries were redder and apples juicier and
bird songs sweeter than they are now.

The Kansas City Journals inter
view with Judge Evans on the re-
ported refusal Of the railroads to
furnish passes to political conventions
this year is entirely too heavy a strain
upon the public credulity. Judge
Evans recent interview upon the
subject Of party leaders is calculated
to keep the public from being SurA
prised at anything he might say,
anything within the bounds or near
the bounds Of reason. But now really
it is incredible that any man who has
escaped the lunatic asylum for fifty
years should have committed an
interview like that. The Journal
reporter just had an irresistible desire
to be funny and must have made up
the interview as an exercise in
Invention.
