1T should be necessary for the various

Why is 1t necessary? 1t is because
the Office holders know that reason

the shrewd manipulation OF those whose

THE SPIRIT OF VANDALISM.

1 The Charlottesville Progress informs
us that unless some check can be put
on the ruthless relic hunters" who
I,yisit Monticello that historic estate
VIII have to be closed to the public.
Souvenir collectors have lately taken
LOO many liberties with the property
OF the owner of the place Statuary
mas oeen mutilated shrubs and plants
destroyed, and other objects defaced
and made less attractive The Prog
ress says:
."lf there is one class of people, more
than another, that would be supposed
to appreciate the beauty of Monticello
from an aesthetic and historical point
of view. it would be those engaged n
teaching. And yet 1t was the careless
disregard of property rights by chose
attending the University Summer
School, this year, that has almost de-
cided the owner of Monticello to close
1t to the public. Among other acts Of
expensive thoughtlessness was that
committed by three young ladies' who
carved their names and addresses on a
.tifty-year-old century plant, from the
effects of which it died. They should
have known that they were not only
/
guilty of trespass upon the hospi-
tally of the owner Of Monticello. but
of an actual violation of the law for
which they could be subjected to
severe penalty"
1t is inexplicable that people who
ought to know better thus desecrate a
spot which is sacred to all lovers OF
liberty and democracy. Why is there
lacking a spirit of reverence in these
vandal visitors to a shrine hal!owed
with a thousand memories of the
mighty master of men and measures
who once dwelt there? Yet what has
been done at Monticello has been done
in hundreds of other places equally as
worthy Of the most rigid respect. The
torch of the vandal is closely akin to
the hammer of the relic-hunter.

In Appomattox, the county Is agree
Ing to pay for the making of the split

will make one and use 1t on the roads

paying this out Of It's general road

Investment we'll worth while. Other
benefit to themselves.
Another good suggestion Is taken
from the latest number OF tho NUM-
cipil Journal and Engineer, which,
tells us that in Ransom County, North
Dnkota, the county good roads asso.
citation recently offered three prizes for
the best stretch OF road to all the
road overseers Of the county The
purpose Of the contest was to arouse
interest in the making of better roads
The contest was a hot one, and those
who won the prizes showed most ex-
celent results In good road-making.
There were great many entries, and
next year the same plan will be FOL
lowed. There was a first prize OF one
hundred dollars; second of sixty dol
lars. and third Of forty dollars
Why cannot the counties when are
interested in the extension or good
ronds in their boundaries follow tho
example OF this North Dakota county?
We believe that II they did so the re-
suits would be of incalculable beneht
to the counties concerned. There is no
reason why there should not be good
roads organization In every county,
and such associations could raise non
ey for annual competitions without
much difficulty. Or, If they did not
wish to adopt the prize plan, they
could at least pay for the split log
drags to be used by farmers along the
roads.
Individuals working near their
homes can do much to promote the
cause of good roads. If they organize
to further such work. they can do a
great deal more. They may begin |
modestly, but they will soon find that
they are doing great work when
they promote the construction Of bet
ter highways.
