Lnr prag Testimony.

Approaching the great help that
local Good Roads associations can ren-
der the cause of good roads, the Ill
inois highway commission in their
last report devote considerable space
to their Importance and the work Of
several Illinois associations. One in
particular, the Galva Good Roads I'M
provement association, is singled out
for special mention because of its
splendid work encouraging the general
use Of the split-log drag on the dirt
roads leading into Galva. President
Miller, of this association, speaking
of their work OF grading draining and
dragging, recently states We have
specimens of road where the grade was
completed in this manner and drain
tile laid where the water line was
within one foot of the surface, and
through which for many years people
waded hub deep in mud in the spring,
and sometimes in the fall when it
rained; but these portions of the road
are now as firm and as good as any we
have. " He also stated that the high
way commissions have made con-
tracts with the farmers to keep their
roads dragged for eight dollars mile
and that the cash system Of road tax
he artily approved by both the tax
payers and road users.
Speaking Of the excellence OF these
roads A. N. Johnson, Illinois state
highway engineer, says they could
we'll serve as model earth roads. "

What To Do.
There is comfort i'll the knowledge so
often expressed, that DR.. Kilmer's
Swamp Root, the great kidney remedy,
fulfills every wish in curing rheumatism,
pain in the back, kidneys, liver, bladder
and every part of the urinary passage.
1t corrects inability to hold water
and scalding pain in passing it, or bad
effects following use of liquor, wine or
beer, and overcomes that unpleasant ne
cessity of being compelled to 90 often
during the day, and to get up many
times during the night. The mild and
the extraordinary effect of Swamp-Root
is soon realized. 1t stands the highest
for its wonderful cures of the most dis
tressing cases. If you need a medicine
Won should have the best. Sold by drug

Uncle Joe Cannon is in tight place.
He is discredited by the result of the
Republican National Convention. He
is marked for slaughter by the Roose
velt-Taft machine, and someone else
will be selected to WELD the speakers
gavel, who will be more subservient
to White House influences. 1t is evil
dent that the disintegration of the
republican party of Lincoln has come
at last, which is due to its degenera
ton. What can be expected Of the
Capitalization process that the young

Conauerors Of the Air.

The Wright brothers Of Dayton, o.,
who recently created sensation by
flying in their aeroplane on the coast
of North Carolina, seem to have solved
the problem Of aerial navigation
Aside from the triumph Of apparently
controlled flight. the most important
achievement from the aeronaut's view
point was that the flying machine not
only carried both men, but carried
them in a sitting position. Heretofore
their aeroplane carried but one man,
and he lying prone. According to all
reports, the Wrights have succeeded in
overcoming the real problem of me-
chanical fight. that of equilibrium.
For many years the Wrights have
been at work on their flying machine.
