Empty Treasury a Good Preventive
of Revolution.

Havana. Feb. 9.-The announcements
cabied here from Washington of the set
tlement of various long-pending impor-
tant questions created general public sat-
isfaciion. The carrying out Of the va
rious projects which have now been def
nitely settled upon Will involve large
expenditures Of money, and this empha-
sizes the fact that when the Americans
leave the island there viii not be much
money in the treasury, the country's
income for several years following hay
ing been expended in advance.
The United States viii doubtless fnd
way 10 compel the Cuban government
to carry out the public improvements
programme.
There is no better preventive Of revo-
luton than an empty treasury. Had the
government no money in 1905, il is prob
able there would have been no revolu-
ton; at any rate, it would not have
come SO soon.

The world is full OF men on national
holidays that fill the air with shouts
and fairly work themselves into a
frenzy of supposedly patriotic fervor.
Every political campaign finds a num-
Der or men posing before the people
as the saviors of the country from
ruin and disruption. Every little
town and village has it's quota of
blear eyed soaks ever ready to tell
how the country should be run and
with wagging tongues avow their pat
rlotlsm. On the other hand large
majority OF the real patriots are quiet
ly going about their business and by
thrift and industry of building up, not
only their own business, but making
public opinion for the uplift of all
mankind. Little passes their lips of
braggadocio and vain vauntings of
holds too much of work and future
developments for idle words and
dreams. Men of brains and sane
common sense throughout the history
OF this country have been so full OF
gigantic plans that patriotic phases
come haltingly from their tongues.
Yet the Civil war revealed the truth
that they unhesitatingly left those
places OF business for the field of bat
tie, and fought as they had worked,
silently and courageously, while the
corner loafer still settled the war
from the seat beside the stove and the
politician used the war and it's horrors
as a stepping stone to misgotten
wealth at the expense of the govern
ment and the faithful citizen at the
q vIy0r hoc = -.sAi.
1t have passed many of it's defenders
and traducers alike. National condi-
tons have changed, but not the people
VINO make up our cosmopolitan citi-
zenship. Still can be seen the large
majority OF the actual workers and
wealth producers. Still with us are
the idle and still Omnipresent are
the politicians, striving each year to
wrest precarious living from the
spoils made for them by the peoples
ballots. Nor have the opportunities
for display of real patriotism passed
with war. Every day and every year
the fight l S being waged against
the enemies OF the repubic-the graf
tiers and seducers of public morals
Every year an opportunity is given
for the true patriots to make a new
sacrifice for the safe guard of the
country whether 1t be official position
at the expense OF private business
or In the devotion Of little time and
thought to the political affairs of the
state and nation in order that public
sentiment for right be built up. AS
long as politicians are suffered to con-
troll the affairs of the nation, Just so
long will the grating go on. It is
Just as much the duty of every citi-
zen to look after the interests of the
nation in times of peace as 1t is to
shoulder musket in time of war
Patriotism that. lasts the year round
outweighs the misguided energy Of the
Fourth.

Whether the Short Line ever esti-
mates the patience of the people of
this city or don't care is a matter Of
conjecture. But this much is certain
that If the above named railroad con-
tinues to mark up the time for the
passenger train from one to two hours
ahead of time that it gets in, an appeal
will be made to the headquarters to
see il correct information cannot be
had about the running time of the
branch train. Scarcely a day passes
but what business men are compelled
to wait all the way from one to two
hours for the uncertain coming of the
passenger. The Times does not
know or presume to say where the
blame lies, but it does know this that
the running time OF the branch train
after leaving Minidoka does not vary
five minutes from two hours and fiji
teen minute schedule necessary to
make the trip to Twin Falls, and if the
departure OF the train out of Minidoka
was correctly reported to the station,
people would not have to wait more
than five minutes at the outside where
they are now compelled to wait one or
two hours without information being
them outside of a faulty
bulletin, which Is not changed even af-
ter the hour passes beyond the time
marked up on 1t. A report from Min
idoka at the departure Of the train on
the branch would give this city two
hours notice and do away with the
present complaint Twin Falls IL

HOW TO KEEP GOOD ROADS

The good roads recently construc-
ted in many States are being worn
down by automobile. Big racing ma
chimes flash by one like motors, max
ing thick clouds of dust; often, for
some moments, the foot-passenger,
the cyclist, or the traveller by car
riage is unable to proceed. At pres
ent the innocent motorer suffers with
the reckless racer. Meanwhile roads
everywhere are going out of repairs,
to the disgust of all who use them,
and especially the farmers. Long
since the farmers discovered that good
roads added to their prosperity in
many ways. The remedy for the
rapid wearing out of some of the New
Jersey highways will be watched with
interest. Where improved roads are
being laid, a light binder clay and
gravel is added to the second coating
of stone, and to this asphaltum oil is
applied. The oil works in between
the gravel and the stone, and the u.s.
ual top-dressing is then applied and
the road rolled. 1t is then that
the oil attaches itself to the top
dressing firmly Not only is this
kind OF road harder, but the dust has
no such chance to accumulate as on
the old-fashioned highway. The con-
struction of roads under this system
ought to reduce the cost of MAIN
tenance by half. besides adding ma
terially to the comfort of all those
who use the road in any way, and
that of those who live near blythe
Outlook.

In commenting on the call for bond
election for court house the Times
wishes to make but two points which
in themselves are of vital interest to
every tax payer and voter. First that
at present adequate protection cannot
be given the county records and that
if a fire should occur nothing can
be done to replace the records thus
destroyed, the monetary loss being the
least important. The second which
is intended to meet the objection of
the tax payer against further burden
of taxation is that the increase will
be SO slight even this year that the
increase in value to every farm on the
tract will more than offset it.
