upon the question ofGOOD ROADS.
That is which plan do we favor. We
will state in the outset that the
Herald favors GOOD ROADS by
any route, the quicker the better, so
after mature deliberation we have
decided to cast in our opinion and
influence on the side of the immedi-
ate building of the whole of the pub
lie Highways needed in Greene Coun-
ty, and that such policy be financeer-
ed by Bond Issuance. In fact we
hadn't until the Board sprang that
miserable makeshift of plan now in
operation, thought much of Good
Roads being gotten any other way
than by issueing bonds. The in
creased values and conveniences that
will accrue to the citizens of Greene
County, altogether Offset the large
sum of money which twenty years Of
bonds will roll up in interest. Lets
have the Good Roads and have them
by the rapid but enduring plan.

The action of Charles Frank in sus- pending Al I<lawitter for one week for using unseemly language in the hearing Of ladies is to be commended. It took nerve and backbone to do it, but Frank has demonstrated 10 these many years agone that he is fully possessed of both qualities-especially the former.
 Franks action tends toward better and cleaner sport. It is safe to say that neither Klawitter nor any other member of the Pel flock will again offend.
 IL was a needed lesson.
 The offense was not Klawitter's first
 It is hoped that he is cured.
 The suspension of Klawitter came at critical moment for the Pels and Frank was playing pitch and toss with his pen nant when he put the big Dutchman out for week.
 Hyder Barr was out of the game with split finger, Angemier was i'll in bed, and with Klawitter out it left his team badly Handicapped.
 Klawitter was again in harness Wednes- day against the Turtles. Whether he will be allowed to pitch again until his week of suspension is up is a matter of specu- lation. He was taught 8 needed lesson Let it suffice. There were extenuating circumstances.
 Franks action attracted the attention of every scribe in the circuit and brought forth their commendation. Even the New Orleans tribe. who usually knock the etuffin' out of the willy Dutchman on tho slightest excuse, admitted that Klawit- ter's offense justified his punishment
 Frank has seldom found 1t necessary to suspend a player for misconduct and his instant action in the Klawitter case shows that the players offense was aggravated Frank, if he expects the patronage of the New Orleans fans, must protect the spec
