Section p is also a new one which
provides THAT in the case Of EN-.

the pext term of Quarterly Court,
which shall make an appropria-
tion to pay for the same. Anoth-
er provides for culverts made of til
ing instead of wood.
So there you are! 1t would not
be right to cFiticise this bill, for the
reason that il is doubtless the best
that could be made under the cir
cumstances.
But we are not suffering for the
lack of road laws. WEiARE SUF-
FERING FOR THE LACK OF
ROADS. We have had road laws,
embracing every conceivable idea
upon the subject for half a century
and the amount of money spent on
the roads would reach into hun
dreds of thousands of dollars.
That money has been absolutely
wasted. The roads are no better
to-day, very little if any, than they
were in the early days of the
county.
While we are reading road bills
and discussing roads, the condition
of the roads is simply abominable,
inexcusable.
Business has been practically
paralized for nearly two months.
People can't get their mail.
T ely can't come to town.
They can't come to Court.
They can't go 10 church. They are
absolutely compelled to do without
the necessities of life-groceries,
clothing and fuel because it cannot
be hauled over the public highways. /
Men can't market their products. /
They can't pay their bills. They |
can't trade. Stagnation and all on
account of false idea concerning i
the improvement of the highways.
Our opinion is that we need no
increase of taxation to construct
good roads. Bonds can be issued
and the interest paid with the
same 70 tax. If the roads
are made hard roads, similar
to those in Madison County, there
will be no more work to do on them
after Il ey are completed, and then
the tax used formerly for road pur-
poses can be applied to the pay
ment of bonds.
Who is it that can't see through
this proposition?
But, gentlemen, if you ever get
rood roads built the first and i'm
oortant step will be to get a man
who understands building them
Il would never do under the sun to
out the management of this work :
n the hands of inexperienced men.
The work should be done either
Inder the personal advice or man
cement of .man who has shown
,eyond cavil ordoubt that he has
'uilt permanent, hard road. 9th
rwise the county might as we'll
cater the money to the four winds.
We don't need more road bills. We :
ont need more road tax. We :
eed capable, honest men to con- ;
truct hard roads, the money to be
rovided with bond issue and the
york done as soon as possible.

munication:
ITO the Democratic City Committee OF

THE undersigned executive committee
OF the general committee OF Democrats
In the Third ward. representing a large
proportion OF the Democratic electors OF
the Third ward. respectfully request that
the Democrats electors i'm the Third

regulations prescribed by the Democratic

There was derisive laughter on the part
OF some opponents Of the measure, and
Chairman Donahue said that II III became
any member OF the committee TO laugh
when the name of John w. Hogan was
attached 10 a communication, as bet
ter Democrat than he could not be
Mr. O'Neil concluded by declaring that
the re-enrollment was but a scheme on
the part OF a few TO perpetuate them
selves In control OF that ward.
DIR. CARROLL HITS OUT HARD.
Supporting his resolution and giving his
reason therefor Carroll minced no
words. but hit out straight from the
shoulder. In part he said:
IL am a Democrat and had no interest
In moving for the enrolment OF the three
wards other than TO see the Democratic
party put upon a basis where II will In
deed be a party. The way TO obtain this
condition. is 10 weed out the disreputable
and the floating classes. In my ward. for
instance, tho party has been run by Re
publicans and n lot OF grafters, who are
preparing 10 repeat their operations. 1
know of one house In my ward from
which 10 men have been registered who
never before have been registered In the
ward and who are in sympathy with
Thomas J. Dorney. a man whom the Dem
ocratic state committee has read out OF
the Democratic party and yet who tries TO
dictate the party's nominees.
II am ready 10 submit a list OF names
OF persons who regularly vote I'm the
Democratic caucuses Of the Ninth ward
and invariably on election day, vote the
Republican ticket include the Third
ward in my resolutions. because reputa-
BILE men like John w. Hogan asked me 10
do so. As for the First ward the last eau
Gus showed the necessity for action"
Daniel A. Cotton said: II am prepare
to prove that at least 50 men have been
registered from the Ninth ward this year
who have no residence there. 1 can prove
IL 10 anybody OUTSIDE OF lnls nleeAitls'
There was nothing else ror the meeting
to do after the adoption OF the resolution,
so II adjourned promptly and the mem
bers gathered I'm small groups and dis
cussed the action taken.
