To Always Be Sureof
Good Cigars
Look for this "Triangle A"

You simply choose your f~avorite
among the brands backed by the ''Tri-
angle A" guarantee of honest cigar
values.
Then you have banished uncertainty
from your cigar purchases. And wher-
ever you go you have a reliable guide.
Simply look for this .'T1ianqle A."
The Triangle A" on a box of cigars
means that every sprig of leaf in every
cigar in that box was graded by experts
for that one cigar. two years before it
was made.
During these two years this leaf has
mellowed and ripened in great, clean
"stemmeries' in an ideal temperature
till all it's finest smoking qualities have
been developed to a degree of perfec-
ton.
The New CREMO
will put these claims to the test and will
furnish you a most convincing proof.
Every box is extra-vrapped in glassine paper,
sealed to maintain perfect smoking condition
and cleanliness until the box is opened.

HIGH CLASS
ROADWAYS
Have Now Become an Actual Necessity
Massachusetts,, New York and Cali
fornia Leading Other States.

The question of good roads is one that
is occupying the attention of the public
| to greater extent now than ever be-
fore, and the newspapers of all sections
of the country are filed with elaborate
and exhaustive articles relating to the
subject rs well as to treat on metods to
render the roads dust proof after being
| built. In Florida particularly the good
roads movement has secured firmfoot-
hold and nearly every county In the
state is agitating the movement to build
hard roads with vim and vigor that is
bound to accomplish good results
The automobile has brought to pass
new era in roads. Smiled at in the be-
ginning as the craze of enthusiasts, high
class automobile roads have now become
an actual public necessity.
One curious fact has been brought to
light by some of the press in discussing
the subject, and that is that the finest
roads in Massachusetts are being rapidly
worn out long before their time by auto
! mobiles and there is therefore serious
intention of levying Il special tax on au-
i tomobiles to maintain state roads.
Another problem confronting the road
| builders is the amount of dust these ma
chimes ralse-very much greater in pro-
portion than carriages or wagons.
! The Long Island motor parkway will
probably be treated with crude petro-
leum in order to harden it and render it
dust proof Experiments have already
been made in differents parts CT New
ork state with oil and tar az surface
| dreSsing-something after the California
plan-and much is hoped for
California has done more than any
other section along this line where nun
dredS Of miles Of oiled roads are in con-
slant use.
The oil used for these roads should be
+! of very low grade, containing 40 per-
cent OF asphaltum and no more than 3
| percent Of foreign matter and water
The cost in California is about $50
per mile Every sort Of road is treated
from common dirt roads to the hardest
macadam
The experiments TO be tried in Dural
county, this State Will soon demon
strate whether this low grade of oil or
the product obtained from it will be
effective on our ordinary sand roads
The gentleman who is introducing it
there is confident it will prove to be the
thing.
If he puts up a fair proposition, our
County Commissioners and City Council
would do well to have him make test
road somewhere here that its value and
cost may be demonstrated

TO PROVIDE FOR
STATE HIGHWAYS
By Legislative Enactment, by Which
Good Roads Con Be Obtained With
out Additional Taxation.

That the subject al good roads Will be
Il prominent factor in occupying the
attention of Florida's statesmen at the
coming session Of the legislature is be-
yond doubt. and the general public con-
fidently look forward to the adoption by
our legislative SoIonS Of wise measures
t" attain such L happy result
Hon. " 4 MacWllliam<, representa-
TIVE from st. Johns county. WAS recently
asked by Il st. Augustine Record re-
porter if he thought the next legislature
would take up the matter of good roads
That gentleman state ii was his inten-
ton to introduce Il bill providing for
state roads.
Tins bill Will create q board IF road
commissioners consisting of the present
board Of commissioners Of state mstitu-
tons
Second-Thc board Of road commits
sloncrs Is required to survey and lay out
three roadS-cnc from jacksonville to
Pensacola, one from jacksonville to
Miami, and one from jacksonville to
Tampa.
Thlrd-The board OF commissioners of
state Institutions shall, at the expiration
of the present lease of conviets. lease
one-half Of the number of state convicts,
the remaining one-haIf to be employed
upon the three roads above mentioned.
F"urth-The money derived from the
hire Of one-half of the number of con-
Ylcts shall be used by the road commits
sioners in the maintenance and support
OF the convictS working on the roads.
The above are some of the salient feat
ures OF the proposed bill. Mr.. Mac
Williams said there were about 200
convicts- This would give 600 convicts
for road building, and the state would
receive from the hire of the 600 about
SlS0,0O0 per annum. This would. in
that gentleman's Judgment, amply
maintain the eonv!cts working on the
road. He further stated that the 600
road convicts could be ~ubdivided, so
that 200 could work on each of the
above mentioned roads, and each Of
these 200 could again be >ubdivided into
four squads Of 50 each, and these squads
could commence work At four different

TEN NILES MORE
OF SHELL ROAD
To Be Added to the Many Beautiful
Driveways of Daytona and
the Peninsula Towns.
y y y

Through the efforts of Commissioner
Potter, backed by those of other citizens
of this section Of the county, the Nolu-
STA county commissioners at their last
meeting ordered the convicts to be put
to work grubbing the river road from
Daytona Beach to Ponce Park, with in
structionS to continue the work until it
the same WAS completed.
Through the efforts of DR.. j. a. Van
Nalzah and Colonel G. c. Post the dona-
ton of sufficient shell has been secured
to complete the work of making this, IN
connection with our magnificent beach,
ore Of the finest, if not the finest, drives
i'll this or any other state.
The sum of 81 100 has been subscribed
10 be nscd in employing men and teams
to do the Smelling, the intention of those
having supervision of the work being to
begin shelling as soon rs q section of q
mile or )" has been fitted to receive it,
siIi'A ~ ''l4tI w I'IIOh Will lIII NiiCII
as each section is cleared and graded, So
that the road will be complete and open
to vehicles Of all descriptions within i
very short time after the county con-
victs have finished their part Of the
work
The road Is already shelled for some
thing like l mile south of the South
bridge, and some work has been done in
the way of gruhbing for short distance
beyond this There remains to be
cleared and >helled between seven and
eight miles. OF this Mr.. Hasty, of
Ponce Park, has very generously agreed
to shell one mile at that end at his own
eXpenSe-a most liberal donation, for
which he Is entitled to the hearty thanks
OF All our citizens rs are all others who
I have, OF may, contributed to the enter
prise.
DavtOna will be as much a beneficiary
by the adding of this driveway to the
attractions which we have to offer to
or tourist guests as will the citizens of
the peninsula towns, and will, We feel
sure, encourage it in every way possible.
Citizens Of Seabreeze and Daytona
Beach gave not only encouraging words
hut good money toward the Davtona
and New Smyrna road; and now that
these towns are leading off in 4 most
desirable public Improvement il is up to
the people of Daytona to reciprocate
and show their appreciation of the spirit
of enterprise which our neighboring
cities are exhibiting.
The Gazette-News learns that the con-
vict5 are quartered Oh the premises
known as the Spencer place" near she
property OF Dr. Van Ealzah, and that
work will begin there for the conyen-
fence and saving Of time in going and
coming from work for the present.
Later their quarters may be changed to
some point lower down for the same
reason. Those most active in forward
ing the work expect the road to be COM
pleted within three months at least.

sonal tax imposed viii be done away with
and that income tax will be proposed

mission, provided for the levying of an annual
tax all incomes above $500 On incomes be-
tween $500 and 81 900 tax OF l per cent was

probably be decided on, the best of the four
offered.
This proposed measure also provides for one
third Of the income going to the state and two
thirds to the locality in which the tax is COL
iected Every person domicied in New York
State, or having residence therein equal to a
period of three months during year, or who

furnish returns to the assessors when called for
within ten days will make the delinquent liable
TO pay double tax. and II he wilfully fails to
return at all the assessor may compel him to
pay ten times the amount of the tax The tax
payer can also be summoned before court OF
record in the county. where the question OF his
failure TO make return will be considered.
The sessions of yesterday entirely con-
fined to discussions of the various drafts pro-
posed Tomorrow morning the vote will be
taken, and then a statement will be given out
which will explain all the changes that will be
recommended TO the Legislature
