This is another of those inexplica-
bic and inexcusable filings at the
South, and coming as it does from a
neighbor who lives just beyond the
river which should be bond rather
than boundary it simply amazes us.

chief apostle OF the negro race, often
said that the door of opportunity stood
wide open to his people in Southern
States of this Union while in the States

OF A ROAD.
front OF his own farm. There Is no
surer method than TO take pride In the
road that goes past your door. ID.
Ward King began his successful road
drag campaign In this way. 1t has
spread from a little Missouri town to
all parts of the world.
There is one line of road improve
ment that is more easily carried on
than any other and consequently is
more frequently overlooked Every
roadway can be kept free from nox-
ious weeds with comparatively little
labor If the matter is taken up prompt
ly. Each weed that natures bares
more prolific crop Of seed than its
predecessor II the fence corners and
the roadside are kept free ii will be
an easy matter to exterminate the
undesirable weed pests which are com
ing to be a decided problem. If you
cannot drag your road you can at
least have regard for your adjacent
field to keep the weeds from growing
along the roadside.
When time, labor and money have
been expended upon the beds Of coun-
try roads and highways there is the
hope of compensation in the way Of
improvement.
If the farmer west Of the Mississip-
pi is blessed with a good road leading
to and from his farm, why shouldn't
he pay some attention to the roadsidef
There are instances where he has
an excuse. A rank growth Of weeds
and briers may be more pleasing TO
look at than the fence they hide, but
where land is worth $50 or more per
acre he forfeits that excuse. A good,
we'll constructed fence along the high
way will arouse a certain amount of
pride which acts as an incentive to
get busy with the scythe and Ak and
clean up.
Many county supervisors and mem
bers Of the Iowa Good Roads associa-
ton are advocating the building Of
good highway fence. one which VIII

Of the present system Of road man

been some Improvement Of late years,
but not much. Let the farmers help
by dragging and narrowing newly
made or repaired roads until cold
weather.
A good way 10 improve a sand road

THE OLD VETS AT MEMPHIS

The battle scared heroes gathered
in imposing numbers at Memphis and
yelled and marched, and gave expires
sion to their old time loyalty to liv-
ing cause, with an intensity Of devo-
ton which has grown in fervor with
the coming and going years. Nor Op-
pressive heat, nor the weight of age
kept them from the ranks whether
formed to move in solid column or
to voice their reverence for the
things that were and will ever be, a
record which was not born to die "
Rather than falter, some of them gave
their lives, and all Of them touched
elbows again in a common cause.
Nor Lee, nor Jackson, nor Stuart,
nor Gordon, nor Forest were there in
living form, but their spirits moved
with them and inspired as of yore
when with matchless mien, and splen-
did courage and soldierly grandeur
they led the way. The Grant episode
may have been somewhat overdOne, a
halt might have been called before
the kissing-point was reached, and
yet when the tear Of soldier responds
TO soldiers tear then comes the hug
which appears more glorious than the
TUG of war.
Let us have peace. We have it
and thanks be to God of Nations and
of individuals

The COMMERCIAL SPIRIT.

1t has been our privilege to listen
70 most excellent speeches Of late, and
amono the best was one from a col
lege professor He startled, as how
ever. when he took occasion to say
that when Mr.. Root gave up his law
practice in New York to become Sc
cretary of State, at a salary Of Sc, 600,
a year, he made a sacrifice like that
of a soldier who leaves home for the
battlefield. Unless the commercial
spirit of the age has sliced upon Mr..
Root and taken entire possession OF
him. we can not understand that he
would say that he made any sacrifice,
even if he had to abandon the dollar
making business for a season, to ac-
cept one Of the highest earthly honors
known to men.
II will be sad day in the history OF
the aforesaid professor who delivered
that fine address, if he reaches the
point Of impressing those who come
under his influence as teacher with
the thought that the chief object OF
human life is to make money.
In refreshing contrast to this are
the words of another eminent teacher
who said. we teachers must get our
reward in something better than
money; in the dignity and prestige be-
longing to the position, in research,
in the pursuit of high ideals, in the
discovery of God-given talent, and in
stimulating helping holding this in
the homage that comes, after awhile,
from ones disciples. ~
And what shall we say of the i'm
mortal Commander, and afterwards
the immortal teacher, Gen'l Lee,
who accepted the presidency OF Wash
ington College at a salary of 81, 500 a
year, and when Gen'l. Ewell gave
$500 to the College on condition
that il be added to Gen !. Lees salary
tee latter declined to accept it, and in
a letter to Gen'l. Ewell said, ! al
ready receive from the College
larger amount than my poor services
are worth. " He was offered $50, 600
salary to become the head Of a New
York firm, but declined that too, and
wrote, Il am grateful, but have a
self-imposed task which | must accom-
plsh. have led the young men Of
the South in battle, have seen many
of them die on the field, | shall de-
vote my remaining energies to train
ing young men to do their duty in
life.
And then he was offered the presi-
dency of the Southern Insurance Com
pany, with an annual salary Of $40, 600
coupled with the suggestion that he
need not resign from the College as
all the company wanted was the use
of his name. To this, the grand man
replied, l am sorry, sir, that you are
so little acquainted with me as to sup
pose that my name is for sale at any
price
And then when the Board Of Trus-
tees Of the College, during the alb
sence Of Gen'l. Lee, decided the
presidents home to him with an an
nuity of 50, 800, he again declined,
saying I am unwilling that my fami-
ly should become tax TO the Col
lege, but desire that all its funds be
devoted to the purpose of education. 80
Let the professor in our institutions
study the life of this immortal man,
and they will learn that duty, and
not dollar. is the sublimest word in
the English language
Mr. Root made no sacrifice in ac-
ceptng the next highest honor in the
gift Of the American people.

no such dolefulness is given out from
