FRIDAY EVENING AUG. 10, zoe.

EIGHT years sgO the Gazette suggested
that the time had come for the construc'
ton of modern highway between Alex
audria and Washington. Attention was
called 10 the fact that the two cities are
but few miles apart and within sight
OF each,other and that the trade of both
mipgles more and more yesrly. The
observatiou was made then that we're
other Virginia cities located 90 near the
capital of the nation they would lose no
time 10 constructing one Of the best ct
highways.
At that time, however, visions OF a
memorial bridge and the proposed Mount
Vernon Avenue seemed TO cast sll minor
movements into an eclipse, ard the qnes-
ton of an improved highway from the
southern end of what was then known as
the Long Bridge 10 the northwestern
confines of Alexandria was regarded by
those whose minds we're carried away BY
more colossal dreams as matter OF uec-
ondsry Importance.
The memorial bridge so far hiss proven
to be q mirage and ntVeruonAvenue,
as pictured in Its entirety, still exists on
paper, and many people have turned
their eyes toward the shortest and most
feasible route between Alexandria and
Washington by considering the sugges'
ton made by the Gazette 10 by-gone
years.
The saying, "All roads lead to Rome, "
comes down to us as hint from the
ancients. The smaller cities Of antiquity
naturally desired to be united to the mis-
tress Of the civilized world. When
Oortez drew near the old City OF Mexico,
situated on islands in lakes and spanDed
by magnificent bridges, he found cities
nestled close to the metropolis and con-
n.cted with 1t by fine highways.
Washington is the capital city ola great
and growing nation. and the expansion Of
the seat of govc'Hnnsnt ia inevitable. A
memorial bridge, L. is reared, has passed
away as q dream since tne opening OF the
new highway bridge across the Potomac.
The approaches have been parked, and
paved and made veritsble beauty spots,
and the construction of modern aud
substsntisl roadway to connect with the
new bridge should be a great desiders-
tum. The energies Of all interested are
now being directed toward this object,
and the full realization Of the plan is the
earnest wish OF the people of Alexandria
aud Washington, as we'll as of those In
Alexandra and Fairfax counties.

these are prohibition measures. Two
bills provide for impeachment OF off,
GERS who fail to enforce the prohibition
Law and give cities more power to drive
out intoxicating liquors aud two aP-
propriate funds to be used 10 enforcing
the prohibitive laws. Reports from
Alabama show that prohibitive legisl a.
ton is being overdone and that q
sharp reaction will soon follow.

You, who are still keeping your

where the temperature is even, the

and no dumping grounds to breed

1t was the expressed wish of Mrs.

that it would still be accessible to
the public. In accordance with
this wish Mr.. Stuart will open the

IMMORAL TRAFFIC
ON A new BASIS
STARTLING DEVELOPMENTS AT
POLICE COURT HEARING IN
FARGo-PETE JOHNSON PLEAD
ED GUILTY TO FURNISHING A
WOMAN FOR STRANGER.

That there are men engaged In se-
curing immoral women 20 fill orders
as they may be received, especially
from strangers in the city, was the
startling development at the police
court hearing yesterday afternoon,
when Frank Miller and Miss McNeiIl
were tried for resorting TO rooms for
immoral purposes.
Pete Johnson, proprietor of local
messenger service, pleaded guilty to
the charge of soliciting for an immoral
business.
1t appears that Miller, who is a
stranger in Fargo, learned that John
son could secure a woman for him,
and the deal was made.
Frank Miller's debauch in Fargo
Sunday night cost him just $50, after
he had planned that $40 would cover
everything. Frank is the man that
"squealed' when he thought that his
affinity had frisked him of $40. 1t
appears that he thought nothing of
his own predicament-that he was just
as guilty as the woman--and he called
the police. ~
Yesterday afternoon he, with Miss
McNeill and Pete Johnson, was fined
a grand total OF $50. Miller and the
woman were caught on the charge of
resorting to rooms, while johnson,
who runs a messenger service, was
arrested and pleaded guilty to the
charge of soliciting for immoral busi-
ness. All the fines were paid.

tackled the man. The seriousness of
the offense was not realized at that
time and not until the near-victim
had recovered, was the matter report
ed to the police.
Wells is said to have arrived In Far

which he was discharged. He register

jamestown, N. D.. June 22.-Reports
of hail losses of light nature have

the Alliance Hail association. One
farmer reports some grain badly dam
aged near Sheyenne, June Is, but be-
lieves that at such an early stage 1t

association has increased its office
rooms by adding another room to it's
offices in the Orlady building, which is

ager of the collection department. The
association has already written $4,000
