been erected The bridge is flanked
by four towers.
The architect intended the towers to
be of equal height bat the kaiser went
over the designs and insisted that the
two downstream towers should be
higher than those facing upstream.
This expensive alteration was duly
carried out, but the effect is so unfor-

Of communications agree that the plan

MORAL OF CRIPPEN CASE.


The United States, which is not a
little boastful when it finds evidence
of it's superiority, should hide it's head
In shame when the record of the Grip
pen trial in England is compared with
that of any similar case in this coun-
try. Here was the real cause celebre.
Everybody in two continents read of
the flight of Crippen and his girl COM
panion, of the discovery Of remains,
supposed to be those of his murdered
wife in the cellar, of the apprehension
and return of the fugitives. All that
Is but of yesterday, yet the case is
over.
Crippen was tried almost as soon
as he landed in England. The trial
lasted but four days. The evidence was
purely circumstantial. Witnesses
could not even be sure that the re-
mains In question were those of a
woman. Every circumstance was pres
ent about which the American attor-
ney and the American public loves to
weave a web of possibilities looking
toward the escape of the accused.
This London jury deliberated just
thirty minutes. found Crippen guilty,
the judge sentenced him to hang, and
hanged he will be.
# this case had happened in the
United States it would have occupied
not less than two years, and there
would have been scarcely chance OF
Furnishing the murderer. He would
not have been brought to trial at all for
from six months to a year, during
which his counsel would have been
busy fashioning plausible theories and
fabricating evidence. His trial would
have spun out over another two or
three months, with endless arguments
with the court over technicalities of
procedure and endless evidence of
alienists to prove or disprove the
mans sanity. The jury would have
hung fire for another week or two,
and then almost certainly disagreed.
II, by any miracle, a conviction had
been secured, execution would have
been stayed for year or more by end
less appeals, carried to the supreme
court of the United States in the last

n C.l
miiar with the method of construc-
ton OF the macadam road. but he
must also know when ii is possible to
use thinner layer OF stone, thus re-
ducing the cost Of construction He
also must be so familiar with this type
Of road that he will not make a mis-
take of using too thin a coating OF
macadam. According to the character
Of the subsol and the hardness of the
roadbed. the thickness Of the macadam
will vary from four inches to ten
inches. The cost Of four inch mac
adam is so much less than a ten inch
that an engineer will wish to use it
as often as possible, and there is often
tendency to use the thin coating
where the thicker one would give bet
ter results.
"The character Of rocks suitable for
use in the construction OF macadam
road must also be known to the road
engineer for the reason that many
rocks are not at all adapted for this
purpose on account of their softness
and lack Of minerals that make good
binding surface. The best rocks for
this purpose are trap, diabase and CAB
bro. These rocks are all basic in
character and when used as top
dressing for macadam give the very
best binding qualities. Many other
vocks, az granite, gneiss, quartzite
'mestone. ETC., have to be used on ac-
count Of the inaccessibility of rocks
Of the other type There Is great
variation in GRANTEES and gneisses in
their chemical composition, those
which contain great deal Of horn
blende giving the best results in the
construction Of macadam roads They
are, however. rather soft and wear
down quickly II the traffic is very
heavy. The limestone, although a
soft rock, has exceptionally good bind
ing qualities and makes a good mac
adam road, but one that has to be
watched constantly.
"The sand clay road which is coming
into general use throughout many OF
the southern states Is one that the road
engineer must know how to build. In
some instances this road can be built
to better advantage than macadam and
will give just as good results. All sand
or all clay will not make good sand
clay roads, and In building this type
OF road both the sand and the clay
must be rested as to It's adaptability

LATTA'S POOR RECORD.

Congressman j. =. Latta, who has
misrepresented the Third Nebraska
district for one term. has spent great
deal of money in the campaign just
closing. trying to cover up his utter
mworthiness tor reelection. A rich
man. he believes that he can return
to congress by the check book route,
without being called to account by the
people Of the Third district for the
Fact that he has been a cipher in the
matter OF achievement for his district
and that his votes have been cast for
his own selfish special interest rather
than for his constituents.
But all the money IN Latta's banks
won't erase from the minds of the
citizens of this district the record that
Mr.. Latta has made.
He can not point to one single thing
that he has accomplished during his
two-year term as congressman for the
people of this district.
He has shown himself incapable of
voting for the interests of his consti.
tuents when his own selfish interest
was involved. Despite the fact that
both republican and democratic par
ties had declared for postal savings
bank, Latta voted against the bill be.
cause he said he was looking out for
his own interests, first of all.
Instead of voting to help Nebraska
farmers, when there came up bill
appropriating funds with which to ex-
pertinent in the kinds of trees that
would grow to advantage in this state,
he voted against the bill. That's how
carefully Mr.. Latta has been on the
job in the interest of the state that
sent him to congress.
Mr.. Latta has not dared refer to his
record in congress, in seeking re-elec-
ton. He has not dared mention his
vote against the postal bank bill. He
was the only congressman from this
state who cast his vote against that
bill. Even Hitchcock and Mcclure,
both democrats, voted for the bill, as
pledged to do by their national plat
form.
Mr.. Latta has attempted by under.
| handed methods to win a reelection.
| He has sent out circular letter claim
| ing that Judge Boyd the republican
| candidate, Stands for Cannonism." 1t
is matter of record that Judge Boyd,
| two years ago, announced that he was
| opposed to Cannon for speaker of the
house and that if elected he would
vote against Cannon. Falsehoods of
this sort do not help Mr.. Latta to
erase his own do-nothing record from
| the minds of the people. AS a con
gresham he has been a cipher with
the rim rubbed out. Judge Boyd, dur.
| ing his term in congress, did things
| for the people of this district. He's
| the right kind of timber for the job.

A MODERN MARVEL.

One of the big scientific triumphs
of the twentieth century is the mar
vellously quick collection and an
nouncement of election returns. Well
we recall the impatient sessions of
all night election watchers of twenty
years ago. In what driblets the news
used to come! We would learn that
seventeen precincts out of 10000 in
New York gave Smith 125 and Jones
100, and goodness only knew how that
compared with previous years, and
whether it was an occasion for repub-
lican or democratic cheering.
What a torture 1t was to collect re-
turns over the undeveloped telephone.
How one would bore his ears into the
recesses of the obstinate instrument,
trying to find articulate and intelligi-
BILE sounds in the babel of voices u.s.
ing the single wire at once.
Today it Is an unusually close cleo
tion where a state result is not fore
casted with some certainty, and flash
ed to the smallest telegraph and tele-
phone office by 10 p. m. of election

country is more dollar bills. There
