Illinois After oGod Roads.

Illinois is taking an active interest
in the cause of good roads. The work
of the state highway commission has
been most c~ommendable and through
it's efforts much good has been ac-
complished. 1t has collected a mass
of information concerning the actual
condition of the highways and bridges
of the state and has gathered in a
convenient form and distributed to
the various road districts information
bearing on the construction and the
proper care of earth roads, which from
h larger part of the road mileage
of the state. 1t has undertaken to de-
termine the conditions under which
earth roads may be improved n the
cost of the same. 1t has distributed
the stone prepared at the crushers
in the state p~enitentiaries as far as
possible to do so to the various road
districts which applied for such stone
and to all who have asked for it in
formation has bee given on the mat
ter of bridge building.
The road drag which has been so
much commented or in the press over
the country has been experimental
with and the commission recommends
it in very strong terms as an ~ineXpen-
sive method of improving roads
This work for better roads has
gained such momentum that the state
legislature is taking a hand in it.
The senate has just passed a bill en-
aiding township commissioners to call
a special election for voting On the
proposition of borrowing funds if they
desire to expend for road purposes a
greater sum than is available. They
also authorize the use of the road drag
for the improving of dirt roads n
prohibiting driving owe them before
they are dried. If this bill become a
law and is enforced the era of bad
roads in Illinois will pass, for it has
been proven beyond the shadow of a
doubt that where the drag is used con
t%inuously it is impossible to have bad
roads
Other states where the roa prob
lem is a serious one would do well to
consider means for enforcing the use
of the road drag.-Daily Drovers Jour

CROPS AND PROSPERITY.

Secretary of Agriculture Wilson
in a recent interview said: mo long
er can there be anything like univer-
sal crop failure. There is no reason to
anticipate anything unusual n way
Or the other tbs year. Our people now
understand more about the growing
of crops, how to prepare the soil, how
to SOW seed, and how to cultivate
plants and harvest grain.
1.-THE f1urries occurring in Wall
street are not affecting the farm pop
ulatioa at all. Many of the farmers
do not know anything about them, N
if they do, they think there is simply
a manipulation of stocks with which
they are not concerned. You cannot
get the farmer to touch anything OF
that kiad now, because he does not
know what the consequences may be.
"A sad reflection on u railroad
stocks at h Ii time is the fact that
Northwestern farmers who have made
and are making money know so little
about railroad securities and have so
little confidence il them that they
will not touch them, but are sending
hundreds of millions of dollars across
the border into Canada to buy land,
which they know will not run away"
The Secretary deprecated the fail
ure of railroads to furlisn transpor-
tation for crops, pointing out that
many bins were full of grain a a re-
suit of the lack of transportation. In
money hat would have
been paid for these crops is not in
circulation.

George NJ. Slaughter chairman OF
the executive committee of the conven
ton of the Panhandle Stockmen's
Association, which meets in Roswell
April 16, II and IS, gave a "chuck
feed" at The Gilkeson at six O'Clock
last night to the chairmen of h va
rious committees. 1t was a happy so
cial gathering, but the real purpose
of the affair was to get the final re-
port of every committee before the
data goes in to the printer for pubI1ca-
ton in h official program today.
The table was tastefully appointed
and place cards showed each guest
where he was to sit. Badges of green
and white (signifying alfalfa and ar
tesian water) the official colors of
the convention, were pinned GA the
guests before they entered the dining
room. Around the table were Chair
man Slaughter, of the executive com.

vertising and program committee:

nation, hotels and boarding houses;

tation; j. w. Stockard, amusement;
E. H. Williams, badges and buttons;

from the country; Percy Evans of the
Record. Place cards were there for
James F. Hinkle, w. S. Prayer, Chas.

were unable to be present.
Following is the menu of the
chuck thai was placed before the
guests:

Broiled SQUAD on Toast
Fried Spring Chicken
Grape Punch

The Finance committee reported
that about S2.1OO had been subscribed.
The expenses already known were
summed up to bOu $1,000. Addi-
tional to this came later during the
evening, $3.50 for music for the min
strel show from Kansas City; $3.50
for the barbecue and probably $500
for cots. The entertainment commit
tee reported that it would turn in
about $3.50 or 81 200 as a net fund
above all its expenses. These figures
nut the finances of the convention

l prefer a system in which the fed
eral government will be confined to
the necessary trunk lines and the own
ersnip of the rest of the lines be left
to the states.
LAS an advocate of retaliation of
the strictest sort, | can say to you
that there is no danger whatever that
this regulation will be carried Il the
point of preventing a reasonable re-
turn on money invested in the rail
roads of the country. And also as
sure you that whenever public own
ership is adopted by the states or by
the nation, the stockholders may ex-
pect to receive a price at a equal
to the value of the physical properties
of the roads: bit no such assurance
ought to be necessary. because the
public has shown no disposition to
reduce railroad earnings to a point
which would deny a reasonable re-
turn.
Il have contended that the present
value of the railroads should be as
certained by the Interstate Commerce
Commission and the railroad commits
sions of the various states, in order
that investors may now when they
are buying stock of intrinsic value
and when they are being cheated. AS
long as promoters are permitted to
issue stock that dOes not represent
real value there must be fluctuations
in the stock market, for every diSclo-
sure of bad railroad management nec-
essarily affects the value of railroad
stocks. The stockholders, therefore,
who desire to purchase for legitimate
investment. should have as much int
crest as the patrons in reducing the
railroad business to an honest basis,
but the railroads thus far ave pre-
vented the passage of a law author
izing the Interstate Commerce Com
mission to fix the value of the Dads.

Chicago circuit court or the subject
of THE Juvenile Court" is the fea-
ture of the program arranged for the
annual convention of the Minnesota
Bar association, which opened in the
representative hall of the old capitol
this afternoon. Judge Mack has for
several years been engaged in juve-

authority on hat subject. The meet

association now has a membership
about 700. including practically all

The committee on hotels aad board
ing houses reported that in all, hotels
and public buildings included, homes
for LAO had been secured, but that
the three Hills tNorth and South AID
West Hnls) the territory west of Mis-
souri, avenue and the territory east
of Main street had not been canvassed

have to be pushed further. People
living in the unsolicited districts will
be called upon later to report to the
committee if they can take care of
any people during the convention if
for rooms only. 1t was under these
circumstances that the meeting last
night decided to order 500 cots, mat

come back in rental.
The talk of giving a barbecue bro't
up a storm of discussion. At first al
most every man was opposed to giving
it, considering the fact that it would
be in opposition to many church din
ners and hotels, also because of it's
great cost n of little good that it
would do the visttorsc Chairman
Slaughter heard the opinions of all,
a majority of which were against the
proposition, and then made a strong
speech stating that as Roswell had
advertised a free barbecue, it was up
to the town to give it. And when the
vote was taken it was practically I'M
animous that the towns word should
be made good. 1t is understood that
the barbecue will be given al the

man w. NJ. Atkinson, of the barbecue
committee, was given full power in
the matter.

MISS RICHESON PLANS


Miss Mary Richeson is ready to an
nounce that on April II, she will give
al operetta, with the assistance of
about forty-fve children and young
people. The affair will be given for
the benefit of the Baptist church build
ing fund and is under the auspices of
the ladies' society of that denomina-
ton. 1t will no doubt be a success,
for the young lady in charge has been
planning INT preparing for the enter

engaged in drilling children in their

eta has not been decided upon. 1t
deserves liberal patronage for many
