The COST oE SMOOTH ROADS.

Convincing and most striking object
lessons as to the efficiency OF the
road drag can be had in spots all over
Iowa now. As the traveller tops a
hill on a country highway he can
easily distinguish the smooth road
left by the drag even tho st lie full
mile away. When he bumps labori-
ously over the ruts Of the undraged
road to the smooth road he finds that
the road drag once over has left a
smooth, perfect highway at a cost so
trifing that the wonder is we do not
compel every mile of highway to be
dragged regularly at public expense.
In many a small town and village
an admirable substitute for paving has
been discovered In the common road
drag. One man and four horses can
smooth over four miles OF city street
per day at at a cost of IS, or fifty
blocks at twelve cents per block, and
when done 1t is a better roadway for
light driving than a pavement. No
city or town in Iowa should fell to
drag every street once each week from
March 18th to April 18th every year
Evening times-Republican. [volume] (Marshalltown, Iowa) 1890-1923, 1909-04-07

The tax for the whole 'sHmmers" road
work would average about 81 to each
half block of street frontage. The
result would be worth ten times the
investment for advertising purposes
alone and the convenience would be
additional profit. Even on the country
highways the same weekly dragging
could be done at cost of SIS per
half mile of highway for the entire
season, a tax, his proportion of which
any farmer could afford TO stand es-
pecially since he can sell the time of
his teams and men at a fair profit to
do the work. In Marshall county the
towns would pay about half the tax
and If the farmers were allowed ST
per day for two teams and driver
their profit would very nearly equal
their portion of the road working ex-
pense. There is absolutely no ex-
cuse except Indifference in the way
of having every foot of highway,
rural and city. dragged every week
from first to first. Lets get busy.

A SONG OF SPRING.
LMuscatine Iournal.l

What tho there is congealing chill
to these sunny mornings?
What tho the assortment of weather
which one Iowa spring day hands out
to us does include nice little genuine
Alpine snow storm?
Spring is here: summer Is coming
just a little way behind.
There is an infallible sign that you
can hear, that you can see, that you
can feel, that you can sense thru the
organs olfactory.
There are two words which all Gre
alton these days is humming, each or
ganism in its own peculiar way.
Thru the air this melody pulsates, a
lifting joyous melody, a clear, throb-
bling refrain.
You hear 1T in the morning thru the
fresh ozonic air. In the twilight of
evening its inspiring strain is heard.
1t is everywhere about US. How 1t
moves the hearts Of men, who alone of
ali creation fail to voice its rhythm
now.
But the time is swiftly coming when
upon the diamond field his jumps will
utter loudly those we'll omened words
so grand. and around the world of fan
dom go the cry:
"Play ball,"

Shell as 1t traven over fh Trajectory.
It Is not known whether the shell
keeps the same angie to the earth from
the time It leaves the muzzae Of the
gun until 1t hits the target or whether
the shell follows It's trajectory so that
the nose strikes the target direct In
stead Of giancing blow. There has
been much discussion on this subject.
The plan Is to have constructed q
target representing section Of the
side Of battleship and to place be-
fore this plate successive screens Of
canvas or half inch pines. The shell

Inn HILLS WARNlre,

Jim Hill knows pretty well what the
west is SAYING and thinking. Il has
long been his business to know and
the knowledge has been hugely profit
able TO Mr.. Hill and mis- syndicate Of
railroads. 50 he should receive re-
spectful attention when ne said the
other day in Washington TO congress-
men from his own state: "The way
people are feeling about it out in the
state, just want to say that you boys
had better vote for free lumber. or else
you'll have seven populists coming
here to take your places after the next
election
Mr.. Hill is speaking for the west. for
a number of states which are waiting
to see whether the pledge Of tariff re-
vision is 10 be kept or evaded. The
western farmer and business man is
convinced that the necessities Of life
should be relieved from the burden of
revenue He wants free lumber be-
cause he knows that the lumber Of the
northwest has disappeared. that prices
have risen to almost prohibitive limits
and that the present high tariff is not
for the benefit Of the workman but for
the profit Of the lumber baron. The
lumberman who re-ails IS not getting
the rakeof The fact is that the re-
tail lumber business is far from being
an excellent business today. The time
for huge profits by the retailer has
gone and the lumber kings by right
Of control Of the forests and the aid

calculating the profit 10 AL the traf-
fc will bear
Mr.. Hill is a prophet. If the western
congressman assists the specially pro-
tected interests To maintain their
strangle hold we viii see another man
of another party in his place The
voters are convinced that they are
paying tribute 10 special industries
and special interests and propose to
quit. Wise congressman will turn an
attentive ear to Mr. Hill when he
talks. He knows whereof he speaks.

PAYING The LEGI LA1uRE.

The refusal of the house to vote a
raise of pay to legislators by increas-
ing It to 81 900 session will meet
general approval. not because Iowa
Is stingy or unwilling TO pay all that
service is worth hut because the sal
ary is never the principal reason why
men seek legislative office and because
public service Of the highest class is
never given for money. Another rea-
son is that the public looks upon sud-
den salary raises passed or procured
by elected officials who are 10 be d.
rectly benefited TO the extent of $500
a year with suspicion and questions
the motive Of the man or men who are
connected with the salary grab. Per-
haps the legislator is worth the added
sum which has been proposed. How
ever that may be he has strengthened
the confidence of the voters by his re-
fusal as he would have weakened that
confidence by paying himself more.
When We come 70 consider that
there is never a dearth Of candidates
for Office and that in most cases the
question Of the pay Is far less con-
sidered than the distinction and op-
portunity afforded by the office there
is plenty Of good reason for the mod
esty of the lower house. Until the sup
ply runs short the demand does no.
seem 10 justify any further increase
OF legislative wages; and in view Of
the time the sessions continue and the
amount accomplished the argument is
open as TO whether cut instead of a
raise is most indicated.

RELAY MARATHON RACE.
Sixty Men on Side to Run In q Ten
Mile Sprint,

a great relay carnival, including for
the first time in the history Of sports
a relay Marathon race, is to be the
feature of the Olympic games of the
Los Angeles Y. NJ G. A. that are to
soon open the new fiesta stadium liz
Los Angeles. The carnival Of Y. NJ
c. A. sports is to cover period Of six
consecutive days instead Of three days
as originally planned.
The Pasadena, Long Beach and
Orange branches Of the Y. NJ. G. A.
are to be represented by their best ath-
letes, and Redlands, Riverside and San
Bernardino probably will send delega-
tons of picked men to compete against
the Los Angeles and suburban run
ners.
The relay Marathon race will be ten
miles in length. and it is the intention
to have the relays one-sixth of mile
one lap in length. Each competing
team therefore will enter sixty men
for the race. and If Pasadena, Long
Beach and Orange enter full teams
against the Los Angeles association
24o runners will participate in the
great race. In case the out Of town
associa tons are unable to form full
individual teams it will be suggested
that two or more combine to make up
full squad.
The relay Marathon race will fur
nish all the excitement Of the regular
relay events, and it will occupy ten
times as much time as the ordinary
mile races and should prove to be al
unusually interesting contest As eacl
man will run only one-sixth Of mile
the distance Of ten miles should be-
covered In between thirty-fve and for
ty minutes.
The relay carnival will be held OF
the last night Of the week Of Y. NJ. c
A. sports. The games are to begif
Monday, April 10, If the stadium l:
completed by that time. The relay
races will then be held Saturday, Apri
"a. It is the intention to follow tn,
plan Of the annual University Of Penn
sylvania relay carnival. which include,
one, two, three and five mile races TO
junior and senior athletes.
