EDIroRs OF THE MIDLAND JOURNAL
Gentlemen In the issue of January oath of your
valuable paper, there occurs in the published re.
port of the minutes of meeting Of The Farmers
Club. hsld at the home Of Robert T. Cameron,
Esq on January 18th last. in which grave mis-
representation of the purport Of an interview be
tween the good roads committee and myself The
statement of the committee is that they had inter
viewed delegate Wilson Squier with view of
obtaining his interest in the matter. but had re
ceived no encouragement from that source " This
statement is entirely erroneous. two members OF
the committee.--Messrs. Wilson and BalderstoI,
accompanied by the Rev Samuel Polk by appoint.
mont, met at my house on the 9th inst where the
question of the provisioas of Bill to authorize
The County Commissioners to raise mouey by
means of Bond issue for the purpose of building
good roads. was generally discussed. The gentle
men Of the committee requested me to prepare .
Bill embodyiDg their Jews. asneitherof the mem
bers of the committe had any definite plan nor
had reduced their views to writing. I suggested
10 them that they reduce the plan to writing
which would carefully examine and prepare a
Bill to be introduced at the present session Of the
Legislature. There was some difference of view
between myself and Mr.. Wilson as to the arbitrary
compulsion to be imposed on the County Com
missioners he contendiug hat the Bill should be
absolute and take away from them all discretion
In the interview informed the committee that
there was being formulated Bill TO bs saced be-
fore the Legislature providing for Bond issue by
the State for the pnrp OF raising ey to build
the main roads throughout the COUNTIES OF the
State aud suggested that the local Bill should be
he'd until the effects of the State Bill should he
apparent, as otherwise. the county might lose the
beueht OF the provisions of the general Bill. This
seemed to appeal to the judgement of Mr.. Bladder
stnn. as he remarked that the county would then
derive benefit from the taxation of City prop
rty. also pointed out to the gentlemen Of the
committee that Bond issue imposing debt OF
two hundred thousand dollars on the county was
q matter OF grave public import and should be
gwen publicity IN order that tho opportunity be
gwen to all the tax payers to make known their
views. So far from discouraging the movement,

drove to the house. The door was op-
ened; he went up thes tairs-to his
death. There are certain truths which
no Journalist or publcist is quite will
ing to tell. The facts are too mon
strous in their truths to be believed.
Trouth, as the French say, is not al
ways probable. Only when the blunt
facts are seen in historical prospective
do they take on an air of likelihood.
TO scores of men in Paris the mys-
terry, of Felix Faures death is no nys-
terry at all. One of the most accomplish
ed of European publicists, Henry Du-
may, lifted the curtain for moment; !;
then, remembering how improbable the
truth may appear, he let it fall. 1t
was a problem every journalist has
faced.
was keyed up to an extrmity of excite
ment, when there were nightly riots in
the streets and when the troops rode
abroad and you knew not what man at
your elbow was a spy-at that time to
have told the truth about the death
of the president would have been a
crime against public order, and as well,
swift way of committing suicide
changed litt lie. What was darkly done in
the caves of the doge's palace in Venice
was done in a Partisan home-above the
noise and glitter of an evening street-a
moments walk from the Place de FOpera,
which is the shining heart of noctura1
Paris. The poison that snapped the life
cord of Felix Faure of France was sud
den and violent. He was dead fifteen
minutes after he went upstairs. 1t was 10
o'clock.
For one hour the body lay on the sofa
in the little parlor-gaudy with art mod
erne. A brigadier and three agents of the
Brigare des Recherches carried it down to
the door; two men took it across the side
walk and placed it in the carriage. What
had been the sixth president of the third
republic rode back to Elysee huddled in
the corner of his coupe. When the body
was decently laid out in bed chamber it
was officially announced that Felix Faure
had died of apoplexy-stricken in his bed.
while the lying dispatches flew abroad
to every newspaper office and to every
financial center, courtiers raced to every
European court bearing the true story of
his death. The truth was heard in VieIt1a,
I happen to know, within twenty-four
hours, and was confirmed within forty
eight hours. 1t was known at the Vatican
within forty hours. But these things are
not printed"

PAY TO BE LET ALONE.
President Wilson Accuses Tarin Bene-
ficiaries of Buying Immunity.

Toledo, Ohio, Nov. 2S.-Declaring a
high protective tariff is no longer a
necessity but works to the advantage
of privileged few President woodrow
Wilson of Princeton university. before
large audience at the Valentine thea
ter last night, said:
THE large corporations of the nation
have gotten into the habit of paying to
be let alone, claiming they have not the
time to devote to legislation and say
ing:
We are too busy to bother with
these things, here is your money, now
don't legislate at ALL
From that habit they have grown
into the more serious one of paying to
be helped and every campaign pour into
the Golfers of that party which Is likely
to foster high protective tariff. their
money, expecting the first money to
come back from the tariff will be
theirs. There was a time when a high
protective tariff was justified and when
it was worth while to try the expert
ment, but we have passed that stage.
There is never any legitimate argu-
ment for protective tariff except for
the benefit of the nation and not for
the benefit of a special few.
1T is impossible to protect without
creating a sense of privilege and this
interest has at last reached the stage
where they say we like the allowance
he government is giving us and We do
ton to change their minds"
