The Lake Erie, Bowling Green &
Napoleon Railway Company and
Vice President e. H. Mcknight OF
this city have been sued by Fred ].
Hendrick for $3.50 damages on a
most unusual cause of action. Hend-
rick says that Mcknight personally
and in his official capacity represent
ed some time ago that it was the pur-
pose of the electric line to build an
extension to Weston. A contract. he
says was entered into, whereby Hend-
rick was to secure right of way for
the extension and to assist in the sale
of bonds for the enterprise.
The plaintiff says that he went
ahead under the contract. did actual
ly secure good deal of right of way
and aided in every way he could to
make the extension feasible financial
ly for Mcknight ana the company
Then with that peculiar way which
roads have of changing their minds
he says they went off to Tontogany
and skipped Weston, left 1t OF the
map In fact.
Hendrick says he lost about 1900
worth of time and labor and that
more than all, he owned couple OF
farms which would have been high
ly enhanced in value by the passage
of the road along their way to Wes-
ton and that he dropped $1,250 by
reason of the change in the route
He asks for judgment for the COM
bined amount.

The work of the interior department

set forth In Secretary Ballinger's an

Increased appropriation for the field
service OF the general land office, ex-
piring June 80. 1910. enabled that bu-
reau measurably to clean up the vast
number OF cases in arrears pending un-

for field work has been reduced a quar-

the force as now constituted the work

One of the most important matters
which will come up early in the pres
ent legislative session is the matter
of state road construction.
The good roads movement from a
statewide standpoint. and even an
interstate standpoint, is spreading fast
over the country. 1t is comparatively
a new proposition for legislators to
consider, for few states have definitely
settled the question and enacted ade-
Quate laws for public road construc-
tion and the Legislators have little
substantial precedent to fall back
upon. The good road question start
ed in the East In a small way after
bicycles became popular, but has now
become big question Of general pub
lie interest. The extensive use OF au-
tomobiles during recent years and the
strong organizations being formed by
automobilists has been a strong fac
tor in agitating the good road ques-
tion, but the automobilists are only a
very small part of those who will be
benefited by the construction of good
highways.
Road improvements directly or indi'
rectly affect almost every industry and
business. but the farmers and those
who have land interests are more di.
rectly benefited than any other class.
On the 18th and 14th OF this month
. good roads convention will be held

OUTLOOK FOR 1911,

The consensus of opinion, on the
whole, is that the prospects are hope
full and bright for the coming year,
says the Chicago Record-Herald With
sanity and moderation in legislative
halls, with justice in the treatment
of business questions pending before
judicial or quasi judicial bodies, with
conservatism in finance and banking,
a solid stable foundation for years
of national prosperity can be laid in
1911. The great, underlying perma-
nent factors of the situation abund-
antly Justify this conclusion.
True prosperity comes out OF the
soil Our resources are still largely
undeveloped, and our population is
growing at the rate of over 100000
year. There has been veritable
awakening In the country with ref.
erence to conservation, the need of
equality of opportunity. of wide DIFF
fusion of well-being. Agricultural
methods are being improved. thanks
10 lHt " oehoo'S
of agriculture, to the march of inven
ton. Efficiency is the watchword OF
the entire educational system. Manu-
facturers and exporters realize more
than they ever did the importance of
foreign trade, and steps are being TAX
en- to extend it.
With an Incompatible domestic mar
ket, with ample chances to conquer
new fields abroad, with skilled labor
able and alert enterprise, the United
States can command prosperity II 1t
but wills. Reform of the currency,
prevention of frenzied speculation,
healthy progressiye-conservative poll
cies in the phere of government, thrift
and prudence in private expenditures
are among the conditions needed to
insure practically unbroken and un-
paralleled prosperity. The new year
opens with every indication Of a de-
termination to observe and fulfill the
conditions named.

The press of Denver announce that
the Leyden Coal company, which is
virtually the same as the Denver
Tramway company, will take care OF
the families of the miners whose lives
were lost in their mine. Surely they
could do no less. The pity is, that
they didn't take care of the mine,
SO as to prevent those families from
being bereft of loved ones. Dollars
can never atone for the loss, but it is

all they can to smooth the rugged fu-

In Denver when representatives Of all
the counties OF the state and of many
towns and public organizations Will
gather to formulate definite scheme
for public road construction in Colo
rado to be laid before the present
session OF the legislature with a re-
quest for prompt action b ythe law
makers. The legislature will be asked
for an appropriation. The state high
way commission will ask for greater
power and more money, also more
general use of convict labor on state
roads will be requested.
All the counties of the state seem
to be alive to the need OF good roads
and demands will be made on the
present session of the legislature for
laws which will hasten the construc-
tion of the proposed state highway.
The Herald has frequently called at
tention to the great importance Of
having this highway constructed into
this corner of the state. We are glad
to see that our Durango Board OF
Trade and the San Juan congress are
taking an active interest in this ques-
ton and are doing all in their power
to help the good work along. Good
men have been selected to look after
our interests at the good roads con-
vention and we want to give them
all the assistance and encouragement
we can In their efforts TO secure for
us what we demand in the way of good
roads in the San Juan country.

Jersey is attacked as holding COM
nanvp while the American Tobacco
company is alleged to be both hold
ing and an operating company. An
other difference between the two cases
lies in the fact that the Standard
Oil company is charged with ollense
against the Sherman law alone; the
tobacco corporations are charged WIN
offending also the Wilson tariff act
OF 1894, which extended the appli-
cation of the antitrust law to any
conspiracy in restraint of trade one
party to which was an importer.
As a result of the hearing OF the
two cases in the circuit courts, othei
differences were either made or De
came apparent. In the tobacco SUIT
the lower court did not find suihciehi
evidence to hold that there was mo
uopoly in the trade in question, al
though 1t did hold that there was
combination in restraint OF trade In
the Standard Oil case, the court was
unanimous in finding that there was
an illegal monopoly, in addition 10
there being conspiracy.
A number of other important cases
are to be reargued, in addition to the
corporation tax cases and the anti
trust suits. The boycott and contempt
cases arising out of the injunction
proceedings in the District OF Column

OF Labor have been assigned for near
