TO PAY FOR GOOD ROADS.

Members of Congress are familiar
izing themselves with the provisions
of the bill introduced by Representa-
tive Shackleford of the Eighth Mis-
souri, district appropriating 100000
to aid the states in establishing and
maintaining good roads. The bill pro.
vides that the government shall pay
an annual rental for roads for roads
used for rural free delivery mail car
riers. The better the roads the great
er the rental, and it is the presump-
ton that the states win devote
the rental money to the improvement
of the roads. If these roads fail to
measure up to a certain standard, mo
rental will be paid for their use.
The bill divides the roads into four
classes as A, B, C, and D. Class A
roads would embrace all well graded
roads outside of incorporated cities
towns and villages, of not less than
five miles in length. The steepest in,
cline upon this road must not exceed
9 per cent and the sharpest curve
degrees. The road must not be less
than eighteen feet wide between the
bitches, well drained, with wagon
way not less than twelve feet wide
composed of macadam, we'll maintain
ed and so crowned as to shed water
quickly to the side bitches. It is pr
vided that the government should pay
at the rate of $50 year for eact
mile of such road used.
Glass B roads should have the sam
qualifications as class A roads excep
that the roadbed in the former shal
be of well cOmpacted gravel. A renta
OF $40 per year for each mile is pro
vided. Glass c roads are to be o
clay and sand or clay and gravel, tht
rent for roads of this class would bt
$40 a mile. Class D roads woulC
have the same qualifications as tn,
others except that the class D road!
should be dirt, and kept in good con
dition by dragging or other menas
The rental of these roads is fixet
at $40 a year.

The roads between here and Ellin'
wood are In a bad condition since
the rains, especially in Great Bend

VITAL WASHINGTON NEWS.
By CLYDE H. Tayyener.

By Clyde H. Tavvener.
Special Washington Correspondent
Of this Newspaper.
Washington, Aug. 14.-Are the Ame1
ican people competent to rule? And
if they are competent, have they the
right under the constitution to do so?
Here are two vital questions direct
ly involved in a veto by President
Taft of the Flood Resolution granting
statehood to Arizona and New Mexico
years been eligible to admission as
territories which have these many
years been eligible to admission as
states but have been barred out,
first, because certain big interests in
the territories desired it, and second,
because the Republicans feared Ari-
zona would send Democratic senator's
to Congress.
The impression that the White
House press bureau (Secretary Hilles
manager) is trying to put out to the
country is that the veto was madenec
essary by a provision in the Arizona
constitution which established no re-
call. This resolution simply gives
to the people of Arizona the right
of local self government; the right to
vote on the question of recall, and to
themselves determine whether they
desire the, recall
So the president is not vetoing the
recall of judges when he vetoS state
hood. What he really is vetoing is
the right of the people of Arizona tt
decide for themselves the form Of re
publican government under which the
wish to live.
you folks in Arizona are not in
telligent enough to select the form
of government under which you ar,
to live,' is the ultimatum the presi
,dent lays down by vetoing the state
hood resolution. Mr.. Taft would hav
his will prevail instead of the will o
twO-thirds OF the people of Arizona.
