conviction in The post-ofice graft cases.
was paid yesterday by August Machen.
former superintendent OF rural free de-
livery Of the POst-office Department. He
becomes a free man at midnight tonight
Machen VIII probably take midnight

his release. arriving tomorrow morning.
His plans for the future are not definite

Prison VIII Miss Him.
He Will leave the prison the most re-
GREETED man ever incarcersted in this in
stitution. His executive ability and ex-
perience in organization have worked
wonders toward Improvement Of prison
methods.
Machen has made himself almost in
.dispensabIe TO the prison authorities.
Their regret at his departure viii be as
keen as the JOY Of those whose interest
in the former post-ofice official lies along
other lines.
Machen has been the most literally
treated "trusty'' in the prison He has
enjoyed the liberty OF walking about the
streets Of Moundsville during the morning
hours.
The prison authorities. however. declare
absolutely false all stories 10 the effect
that Machen has ever been allowed to
leave Moundsvlle. That he had attended
the theater in Wheeling. they say, is
ridiculous
Machen also denies this rumor.
Punishment Is Promised.
officials Of the Department OF Justice
have become greatly annoyed over per-
sistent reports from Moundsvine that
great favoritism is being extended promi-
nent Federal prisoners.
Reports Of the extension Of similar priv
ileges 10 George Beavers. former superin-
tendent OF allowances and supplies Of the
Post-OfiCe Department. during his term
Of service, met with emphatic denials
from the prison warden.
II is announced at the Department Of
Justice that a confirmation Of the reports
of favoritism viii mean the instant dis
missal Of the warden AT Moundsville.
Four Years I'm Prison.
For nearly four years Machen has paid
the penalty Of his conviction of compile
ity in the post-office graft case. There is
little about the lines Of his portly figure
or the color Of his face to suggest that
he has found his Imprisonment a severe
hardship.
Machen yesterday turned over 10 the
prison officials $100oo. the amount Of the
fine imposed by the court in addition 20
the Imprisonment sentence. when he. with
Samuel Croft. Diller B. Croft. and George
A. Lorenz. was convicted Of conspiracy
10 defraud the government in connection
with the purchase Of government sup
plies.
Machen has had nearly a year taken OF
his sentence for good behavior.

NEED OF GOOD ROADS.

ITO appreciate the necessity for good
roads in America one should consider
the road as part of q transporting ma.
chine. The machine is composed by a
horse, wagon and road If any one
of the three is poor. the machine is
poor and ineffective. Only small load
can be drawn, and that slowly. We
have been spending thousands of dol

and improving wagons and have nj.
lowed the roads TO run down and offset
our costly upbreeding. Is it not time
we stopped and considered the common
