A Very Important Amendme nt.

There are two things being consid-
cred by the state legislature which
concerns every citizen OF the state
and particularly every farmer, and
concerning which every one should
let his local representative know his
feelings,
One of these is Joint resolution No
% S which aims to amend the consti-
tuition to permite the state to aid in
building country roads. At present
the farmers pay the entire cost OF
constructing these roads, and strange
IA it may seem there is opposition IN
some parts to any change in this un-
Just system. The situation recalls
Macauleys statement of conditions
in England in 1855 when Parliment
passed the first turnpike acts and
reused the opposition of the people.
He said, ''---unjust and absurd taxa
ton to which men are accustomed is
often borne more willingly than the
most reasonable impost which is
n,w.n
1t il unbelievable that the people Of
Wisconsin will be so shortsighted as
to fail to appreciate the Justice Of
sta,e aid for highway construction.
At one end OF every road il the farm
or with his crops for sale. At the
other end is the city with its people
waiting to be fed, with its merchants
waiting for trade and it's railways
waiting for goods to transport. To
whose advantage is it to have road
for the farmer 10 come to town II IL
our strong impression that the farm
er could get along bcttar without a
! road than the city people and the
railways They would starve, while
the farmers could get along fairly
I comfortably.
Heretofore the farmer alone has
been obliged to pay for the cost OF
/ the road TO town. The Injustice OF
this system IS very apparent, now
ever, and the intelligent people OF
twenty tour states OF the Union have
adopted a system Of state aid for
highway building whereby all prop
erty in the state is compelled to bear
a fair proportion OF the cost OF
country roads

big SALES OF WAGONS

WORK AHEAD FOR ALL WINTER
Bright Outlook For Next Year Fer
Msrtino1ur9 Industry ard Other
Vehicle Factories.

Mr. D. w. shaffer. general manager
Of the Vehicle Co. and Mr.. Stephen r.
Snodgrass, ASS ant manager of the
Auburn Wagon Co, returned home on
Saturday from New York where they
attended for few days the annual ex-
hibition Of the National Carriage Asso-
citation
The Auburn Wagon Co. came off
with flying colors Their display of
wagons was finer than any hitherto
made by them, and the result was
that they took orders for between $685.
600 and $4,000 worth of wagons and,
! besides. sold all Their samples, some
twenty in number, of different styles
and at good prices. too.
A dealer in Utica, n. T., ordered $50
wagons for delivery early next year
and at an advance Of Z - per cent.
over This years prices.
This Is good news for this important
Martinsburg industry and assures the
hands steady work all winter.
The Big sales were made largely
through the efforts of Mr.. Max Rob
inson, this city, president and general
manager of the Auburn Wagon Co.,
ana is high testimonial to his ability
as a salesman as well as a proof of
the superior excellence Of the made
in Martinsburg" wagons.
Mr. Shaffer told World representa-
tive that every vehicle manufacturer
he talked with at the exhibition said
he was overloaded with orders and all
are asking an advance OF from 10 to
Is per cent. on present prices for fu-
ture delivery
He said, furthermore, that he had
an offer from western man for car
load of buggies, while he was at the
exhibition, but that he, Mr.. Shaffer,
declined the offer at 1907 prices for
January delivery.
SO it would seem that manufacturers
in Vehicle lines all over the country
are not only al busy but that next
year they are going to get a good deal
more money for their products, while
many vehicle manufacturers claimed
that they have enough orders now on
/ hand to keep their factories running

NEGRO PoRTERs SCARED.
Carrying Rough Box, Man Kicks and
Groans and Porters Run.

The night baggage agent at the B.

on a couple Of colored porters about II
O'Clock Sunday night that they will
not soon forget.
An empty rough box used for over
a coffin was standing along the tracks
and the baggage man got young fell
low to get into it and lie down and
then closed the lid. Later he asked
the two colored porters to help him
carry the box under the porch at the
station. While they were n the act of
doing so, the man inside the box began
to kick and groan This was too much
for the porters and, dropping the front
end of the box, they took to their
heels, frightened out of their boots.
One of them ran over to the round
house, but the other one ran up street
, at top speed and never stopped till he
reached Hotel Berkeley. where he

America takes delight in converting
