CORRESPONDENTS of a Diplomat.

When Andrew d. White was am
bassador to Germany he received some
queer letters from Americans.
Perhaps the funniest of all was
mandatory epistle from an old lady
living in the West, who inclosed in her
letter four pieces Of white linen, each
some six inches square.
'Wc are going to have a fair in our
church," she wrote, "and / am max
ing all autograph quilt. l want you
to get me the autograph of the en-
peror, the empress, and the crown
prince, and tell them to be careful not
to write too near the edge Of the
squares, as a seam has to be al
lowed for putting them together."-

The cause of good roads has spread
across the country from the East even
to the Pacific slope and now Cali
fornia has plan for state road to
run through the beautiful valley
region and along the coast from ono
end of the great state to the other.
Governor Gillett is the author of the
plan and expects that the legislature
and the people of the state will en-
dorse it. In addition to the roads
connecting the ends of the state, it is
proposed to have series of branches
along the main lines running into the
mountain regions and connecting the
county seats of all counties not trav-
ersed by the state road. Gov. Gillctt
would have the state issue bonds to
the extent of $4,000, 900 for these i'm
provements. This would give about
$4,000 for the average mile of road.
The bonds would be issued payable in
&C years, the counties to pay the inter-
est. 1t is argued that at the present
rate the state is accommodating wealth
100000 worth of the bonds can be
bought back each year with no extra
taxation rate. Thus the state would
be able to pay for the work in its own
time at the present low rate of taxa
ton and without placing any addi-
tional burden on the people.

At meeting of the liquor dealers in
Chicago this week it was declared that
the prohibition wave now sweeping
over the country impcris the life of
the republic. The liquor people may
well he pardoned for viewing tie situ-
alton seriously. for from their point Of
view the prohbitivc movement is far
from being anything to be treated
lightly. But there is every reason to
believe that the country will survive.
If every American who INDUCES occa-
sionally in strong drink should swear
off today and keep his pledge, the coun-
try would survive the shock and be-
come bigger. better and buster than
ever before. The liquor trade. of
course. represents a big financial in
vestmcnt. but that is the least of the
things to be considered when the sup
preston of the liquid traffic is dis
cusSed.

Although John Alexander Dowie, the
far-famed Elijah II of Zion City. is
safely IN his grave, he is survived by
asbrother who noW announces to Chi
cago that he is Moses II and that he is
the real thing, while the late John AL
exander was only a tawdry imitation.
No doubt this reincarnated Moses will
find a fresh crop of suckers awaiting
him upon whose gullability he will
prosper until some new high priest of
religious quackery comes along to sup
plant him.
