AN IMPORTANT AMENDMENT.
State Aid for Roads.

One of the most important
questions that the voters of this
state will have to consider this fall
is an amendment to the state con-
stitution. This amendment is a
very brief one which gives the
state power to spend state money
in building roads.
Wisconsin is about the last pro
gressive state in the Union to con-
slider this plan of State Aid. All
the states about us are working
under this system knd/are build
ing many miles o1fwproved roads
Many persons <who are unfa-
miliar with the plan seem to fear
that this is a scheme to compel
farmers to build good roads wheth-
Ell they want to or not, but it is no
such thing. 1t is plan under
which any town can get aid from
the STATE after it has, OF ITS
OWN FREE WILL, voted to
improve its roads. Under this
plan the farmers pay part of the
cost and everyone who pays state
taxes farmers, city people and
railroads, help to pay the rest.
Most of the state revenues are
from corporations that pay no To-
cal taxes, which, altho they are
benefited by the prosperity that
good roads bring, cannot in any
other way be called on to pay for
a part of the cost.
Dean Russell of the Agriculture
al College of the State University
makes the following statment re-
garding this amendment:
There is no tax laid upon the
farmers of our state whichis heav-
Ter than that imposed by poor
roads, and inasmnch as it is with
in their power to relieve them
selves from this discrimination it
would seem that all and especially
the agricultural classes. would re-
cognlze the advantages in passing
a constitutional amendment which
will permit of state aid for the
good roads movement in Wiscon-
sin"

The ROunder Saws

III You have just lighted a good Is
cent cigar and happen to drop it on
the sidewalk. put your foot on 1t and
look around to see If there is cop"
in sight, for 1t has become an offense
against the city ordinances to pick up
'snipes" from the street.
The city fathers have watched the
little newsboys along the curb and
suddenly scramble for a cigar or cigar
cite butt; they have seen men with
baskets going along the street pick
ing up this refuse tobacco to be sold
to INSCRIPTIONS dealers for manufac-
ture into chewing tobacco and pipe to-
bacco, and they have decided that, so
far as Hammond is concerned the
practice will have to stop.
1t doesn't make a bit of difference
if times are hard. It don't matter If
you are Just dying for a smoke. you
are likely to be pinched If you so far
forget yourself as to stoop and pick
up the half burned ten-cent cigar that
DR.. Howat has thrown away. or one
| of those long. slim stogies that Mr..
Turner smokes.
| You may even know the fellows who
| make it a practice to throw away half
or three-quarterS OF cigar, whom
you have followed in order to get free
smokes they throw away, but you have
got to cut it out after this and buy
your own tobacco.
If your wife has been saving your
cigar stubs for use in keeping the
moths out of her furs or to put on the
geraniums SO that the bugs won't
bothem them, you had better tell her
/ to hide them. A policeman is likely
to come around with a search war
| rant and find box of snipes in the
house, and off to the police station
she would have to go.
The ordinance reads that the gath
pieces if cigars and cigarettes is for
pieces of cigars and cigarettes is for
| hidden, and that any one caught traf-
ticking in them will be subject to ar
rest
1t may be that Ed. Simon objects t.
the people of Hammond smoking
snipes when he has good cigars fol
sale, and that he used a little pull tc
ge the ordinance passed, but, never
theless, it is fact that it is unlawful
to pick up snipes, and we had all bet
ter look out in the future.
