The report of the good roads COM
mittee of the Automobile club which
last Friday made the trip over the

teen Staples business men gives a very
good idea of the condition of the road

shows in what manner it would prove
best to fix it up.
The worst stretch of the road is five.
miles between Cushing and Lincoln.

county commissioners has appropriated.

work has been done on it, the stretch
of road between thie city and Darling

being sandy and billy; between RAN
dali and Gushing the road was ir fair
condition. Fixing up the road as
routed by the good roads committee
the distance between Little Falls and
Lincoln would be twenty three miles,
while ty rail it is twenty.one and q
half miles.
The committee was advised by the
Staples committee that the road from
that place to Lincoln would be at

ROYALTON SHUT OUT
Home Team Defeats VIII
layers BY Score Of
~; : - - t.*

In one of the most amicable games
played between the two teams for
years past, Little Falls shut out the
Royaiton baseball team at Athletic park
last Sunday afternoon by the score of
6 %. It was clearly matter of too
much Dominick. the big fellow hold
ing the villagers to DO hits up to the
seventh inning, when Boyd connected
for safe single. But one other hit,
that of Newman in the ninth inning,
was obtained off his delivery. The in
field showed considerable improve
ment; while the outfeld went after the
very few that came their way like
hungry wolves. Both catchers did ex-
cellent work.
Except for the sixth inning, when he
was touched up for five hits, Joe Doty
pitched good ball, the four other hits
made being two in the first inning aud
one each in the second and third inn-
iDgs. He was not backed up by his
teammates at critical times however,
although at other times snappy playing
was shown by the visitors.
In the first lnniog,' with one man
down, Lauerman singled to left field,
advances--to second on a missed third
strike, holding the base on McPher-
sons fy-out.to short. and scored on
single to right field. Doty got Kidde1 q
goat for the third out.
The game then settled to a pitcher s
duel until the fatal sixth, when
Howard made three wise sw ings at
the pellet and was gwen the count,
Doc. Hughes muffed Lauerman's fly
midway between center and shortstop
after an excellent run, and four
straight singles by Greiseb, McPher
SOD, Stoll and Kidder, Berg's force-out,
Stoll being caught at the homeplate,
| and another single by Kingen Melted
five more hits :eor the home team. The
mischief Was over when Dominica
was retired Hughes to Hayes.

AS SHE SLIPS SHE SLIDES
By SAvOYARD

I believe it was MT. Henry Watterson who separated the American elecorae into two camps after this fashion: "The democrats are damned fools and the re- publicans are damned knaves." And the country accepted the definition, but pre- ferred the scamp to the dot. But things seem to have Changed since Betsey died" While holding on to their integrity the democrats appear to have acquired some sagacity, while the G. o. P is still g damned rascal and is rapidly becom- ing a damned fool. General Grant used to say that the republican party could commit any enormity, because the demo- cratic party would come along with both hands full of foolishness and force the people to incline to the G. o. F., or words of that import. Hence the donkey was fit emblem.
 There is no doubt that many a republic an victory was due to democratic mis- takes. But the democratic party is be- come safe and sane-everywhere excep in the United States Senate-and the repub- lican party Is become gifted with genius for blunder. After 1896 Gods patience
 
 q thousand suggestions looking to "get- ting together of democrats. It was all worse than foolish, for how can honest men get together unless they think to- gether? It was impossible to herd to- gether democrats who believed with Cleveland and democrats who believed with Bryan on the issues that were para mount from 1896 to 1908; but the tariff is now again paramount. and Cleveland men and Bryan men think together about it, and are got together in support of con stitutional and honest taxation. True, there are Randalites and "near"-protec- tionists in the democratic ranks, but they are feeling mighty lonesome and they are getting mighty sick. There is no room in the democratic party for these gen try. If they demand protection for their pet industries, let them be honest enough to assent to protection for all pet indus tries, north and south, east and west.

This morning Black approached Hosey on the subject making a crop that he would have to vrender the mule for which the debt was made. It Is also said that Black made an effort to reprimand him for his action in making illicit whisky. It Is claimed that Hosey became mad and fired at Black, killing him instantly. Florence Is Killed
