Fix The Roads

There are several roads lead
ing to Meade that need attention.
Different farmers have spoken
to us about the matter, saying
that the local officials do not take
action on complaint. 1t would be
well for the road committee of
the Commercial Club to inquire
into the matter and render such
assistance as it can in securing
work on these roads, and the dis
carding of gates across the main
highways of the county. The
time is past when the pastures
are the principal dependence of
the country. Now roads over
which crops may be easily trans
ported to market are the prime
necessity.
While on this subject: There
is one place that is disgrace to
the city and one which is driving
trade to other places, and that
is the hill and low place on the
east end of Carthage avenue.
Work on the city wells, and later
running water needlessly down
the middle of the street has cut
deep ditch down the street
washing dirt on the low ground.
When the water is turned on
from the hydrant to drain the
mains, or when a shower comes
it is nearly impossible to get
through the mud at the corpora
ton line on this street, The
ditch in the middle of the street
is dangerous in the dark as it is
deep. Farmers have said Meade
has made the road east good and
we can haul two ton in until we
get into town, and there we can't
move it. Men in town have said
that if there is not sufficient in
the street and alleys fund to fix
it, that they would cheerfully
contribute to a fund to repair
that bit of road. To the north
west near C. F. Gardeners farm,
is another place where work is
needed badly. This is entirely
under the control of the town.
ship officials there, but some
judiclous work with them would
remedy that, for the farmers
Whereabouts are ready to put it
in good shape. One of them
came in Saturday to ask that we
attempt to stir up interest in
this, the condition of the road
there, and secure the opening of
gates across the highway along
north of there, This man said
that he, last year had hauled his
grain four miles further to
Fowler because the roads were
good across the valley. But said
he I have to send my money here
to deposit after l sell my crops,
for all my trading and business
is done here.

PARIS, March 26.--Scientists are di-
vided over the relationship of Halley's
comet to the devastations Of Mount
Etna, the famous old volcano in Sicily,
but today Professor Camille Flamma
rion, the eminent French astronomer,
who knows more about the coming
comet than perhaps any other living
scientist, declared that while many
memorable events had transpired simul-
taneous with the appearance Of the
comet, he did not think it was more
than n coincidence that the present trip
of the comet should arrive at n time
when earthly matters are somewhat un-
settled.
"Still it is always best to make some
statement conditionally, aud [ shall
make mine in that Manner said the
astronomer. FUpon every one of thirty
trips of the comet there have been
events on earth happening simuIta-
neously. The things seem TO establish
4 connection.
Gas for natural causes from the
present visit or thc comet, J am not
in position now TO make a statement,
but there have been physical upheav-
ais Of a very serious nature. The great
Paris food and the present eruption of
Mount Etna are two so far, and the
comet has not yet maintained its mini
mum distance from earth,
Historic in Science.
HThe comet Will continue advancing
towards this planet until May Is, and
upon that day its tail should sweep
over the earth.
q" An American tourist coming 10
France would be interested in an an
tique-a piece of tapestry embroidered
by the wife OF William the Conqueror,
Duchess Mathilde. 1t was done IN
1865, and one section of it shows this
very comet which is now travelling at
express train speed towards u.s. While
that is the first representation of the
comet, the Chinese studied it as far
back as 4T6 b. C..
"'When we consider that this is the
thlrtieth journey of the comet, / cannot
scientists who predict dire things from
ion that the world might end with the
nearest approach of the star. Others
that it lly from its orbit through the
counter attraction of the earth IS grav-
ity, and smash our comet; others that
noXious gases from the tail will cause
n great plague 10 fall upon us.
lit is true that historical events are

comet, but / reiterate my belief that
physical disaster viii not overtake tho

WASHINGTON, D. c., March 90
Just at the time when the threatening
political clouds seemed ready to part
and allow the sunbeams OF harmony
to shine upon the grand old party again,
new developments have begun to arise
which will necessitate a party confer
ence in this city.
This was pregnant week for the
Republican leaders. II was filed with
so many conflicting influences it has
almost been decided TO allow the ma
tional campaign committee to run the
campaign next fall to give Postmaster
General Hitchcock another opportunity
TO show his deft mechanical ability as
iuggernaut. Mr.. Hitchcock viii again

roller while he sets about 10 furnish
the necessary funds 10 feed the ele-

The four important developments
were:
The announcement that Clifford Pin

Naples. the withdrawal OF james r.
Garfield as n possible Republican can
didate for governor of OHIO and his
attack upon the present administration.
the election of SIX regulars upon the
new rules committee I'm the house and
the attack of Representative Palmer
Of Pennsylvania, Democrat, upon Pres
idcnt Taft.
Situation Critical,
A master hand had materially
smoothed out the differences between
the insurgents and the regulars in the
house when the first of these develop
meuts broke this week. Today the sit
uation is more critical than ever With
the administration under fire and the
split growing, the leaders are genuinely
alarmed with the years outlook.
