TRADE AM. coon ROADS.

In one particular Abilene is not
doing all 1t should to bring here the
trade of the county. A farmer Of
Hayes township said to the Reflec-
tor last week: II can go from my
place to Chapman over dragged roads
all the way. Coming to Abilene,
practically the same distance, l must
come over roads that are rough and
difficult. That is why we have
been to Chapman to trade twice in
the past week and waited until the
roads became worn down a little be-
fore coming to Abilene"
The other towns of the county are
going after trade with good roads,
Chapman sends out men to drag the
roads leading to town and pays the
bill out of the commercial club funds.
1t also fixes the bad places in roads
leading to town and 1t is appreciated
by the farmers. Practically every
road in northeast Dickinson is drag
ged after every rain. Around abb
lene very little work is done.
Even the city itself does little
inside its limits. It is doubtful III
there is in the county anywhere a
piece Of road which is as bad SO
many days in the year as is South
Buckeye from Enterprise street to
the city limits. What encourage
nent is there for Grant township
o keep up the river road when abb
enc will not keep its own streets
n good condition. The township
las offered to join the city in macad-
lmizing the road to the river over
which comes a vast amount OF trade
o this city-but nothing is done at
his end.

Advertiser Complains Circula-

Heated arguments took place before

publication of an advertising booklet,

to go to the benefit of the fire sufferers

High street fire of November 26 last
Henry w. Landow. a manufacturer,
Of 104 New Jersey Railroad avenue, ap-
peared and desired to make a COM
plant against J. r. c.. Clark, who he
claimed was responsible for the publ
cation, and who solicited the ads for
the booklet.
Clark did not deny that he was in
charge of the publication; neither did
he deny that he had told Landow that
he expected the circulation of the pub
LEGATION to run from 60,0 600 to 100000.
Delays In getting it printed kept the
booklet from getting in circulation
until at the present time less tina LOCO
had been circulated.
Landow wanted a warrant for Clark,
and on o charge of obtaining money
by Misrepresentation, but, after listen
ing to lengthy explanations from both
sides, Judge Hahn refused to entertain
a criminal warrant.
At the same time he ordered Clark
to turn over within a week to the
executive committee of the fire fund a
statement showing just what condition
the booklet fund was in at the present
time and to make a full report and
turn over all money to the fund by
March 10. Clark promised to do this.
Judge Hahn, in disposing of the mat
ter, said: IT don't see how a complaint
can be entertained in this case. I an
satisfied that some booklets were print
ed and circulated and the honey made
should be turned over at once to the
Evening STAR fund Dr. to some of the
other funds that were in the hands
