CALL FOR NATIONAL ROAD.
Appeal to Have Famous Highway
Rebuilt by the Government.

The National Good Roads asso-
citation, with headquarters in St.
Louis, has sent out the following
appeal to motorists, says the New
York American:
The National Good Roads as
ISOLATION is a powerful force for
good, and its work is accomplish
ing results in all parts of the Unit
ed States. 1t is engaged in many
things that will benefit the people.
One of the great schemes it has in
mind and which it has set about
to accomplish is the repair and re-
building of the great national road
across Maryland, Pennsylvania,
West Virginia, Ohio and Indiana.
That memorable road was in
tended to be one Of the highways
between the east and west before
railroads were known, 1t was
built at great expense, costing the
federal government over $1,000
900, and during the early days
was famous highway over which
thousands travelled every week.
When the railroads came into ex-
istence the national road was neg
lected, and today it is only
skeleton of what it once was.
1T is proposed to rebuild it,
and the National Good Roads as
ISOLATION has undertaken to have
it done by the government. The
length of the road is about 700
miles, and itcsn be rebuilt for less
than $1,000, 900. That is about
the cost of one good battleship,
and we are building lots of them.
The appropriation of that sum to
make this old road across five
states would do as much good as
the average battleship, for not one
such ship in ten will ever get in a
fight Then when the old road
has been put in good shape to the
Mississippi river it may be that
the price of about three other bat
tleships will be set aside to build
the road to the Pacific coast.
"One first class continuous high
way across the continent would be
a great thing. Many a traveller
would spend two or three months
going and coming by team, bicycle,
automobile or otherwise. It would
be easy for the nation to do thing
like this.
I'm 1905 $50, 900 Americans Wis

ing founded on the lunar calendar.
The date January I for the begin
ming of the year was purely arbi-
trary, and it was only accepted
after centuries after experimenting
with other dates. AS it was, the
reckoning of the year from Easter
was in use i'll Europe down to as
late as 1900 in some places, in spite
of the inconvenience of this .sys-
tenn; while in other sections the
now year was begun at Christmas.
The Church authorities, who
were nearly ail-powerful in mat
tiers affecting the calendar, would
likewise have made Easter fixed
festival, as it logically should have
been to commemorate the Savior's
rising, but the idea of the day as
being connected with the Jewish
paschal moon could not be eradi-
Gated from the popular mind. 1t
was to remove all uncertainty about
Easter that Pope Gregory XIII.
revised the Julian Calendar. He
tried to devise some plan that
would never allow Easter and the
Jewish Passover to fall on the same
date, but they do coincide once in
a while. Easter day was fixed as
the first Sunday after paschal full
moon, that is in a general way the
Sunday after the full moon occur
ring on or after March 81. The
Church calculations, however are
founded on very old moon tables,
and it is fo1 this reason that Easter
falls sometimes a week earlier or
later than it would if regulated by
the actual moon. 1t can come as
early as March 81 or as late as
April IS, and various other Church
festivals are determined by it.
1t took but little readjustment
to give the pagan Easter a Chris
tian significance, though the fixing
of the festival by the moon had to
be conceded. The association of
Easter with the rising of the sun,
the dawn of day, the rebirth of life
after winter, and JOY at the hope
Of rich garner for the season was
readily engrafted into the Chris
tan symbology. Christ represent
ed the sun, the light and Easter
His resurrection; the thanksgiv-
ing for the past, the JOY of the
present, and the hope for the future
were all beautifully appropriate
to the new Interpretation of the
festival.

/ There has been some disposition to
tcriticise Senator Beveridge because he
tacted in harmony with the Fairbanks
1tmen at the Republican Love Feast at
indianapolis. This criticism, we feel
fis unfounded No other course was
open to Senator Beveridge Fair
thanks, it is true, is in great disfavor
with many republicans throughout the
Estate and yet there is no doubt but
THAT he is powerful enough to control
Ithe state. For Senator Beveridge,
Therefore, to assume an uncompromis-
ling attitude would throw the state into
two hostile camps and party harmony
would be thrown TO the winds. Take
1.-THE Ohio situation for example. Taft
lis undoubtedly the choice of the people
lof that state, and by all rights should
receive its solid delegation. Foraker,
however, who has not the slightest
tany consideration as a presidential
candidate, butts into the political
.arena as a presidential candidate Sim
Iply to weaken Taft. Foraker's move,
however, has divided Ohio into two
hostile political camps in the republi-
can party and, as result, the entire
republican party in that state has been
weakened. There are factional differ
,ences among Indiana republicans but
they try to avoid carrying their differ
ences to the point of destroying the eff
lfectiveness of the party as winning
quantity. And it was consideration of
this fact that caused Beveridge repub-
llicans and Fairbanks republicans to
unite at the Republican Love Feast as
a harmonious whole rather than as ex-
ponents of fractional differences.
