Candidates who declare themselves
for good roads" in general terms
should be required to be more ex.
plicit. Good county roads. to build
up the county seats, are needed and
some law should be enacted forcing
all counties of the state to improve
their roads by system of taxation
that would make the process so grad
.usl as not to be burdensome. There
is no need for state highways built
at the expense Of other counties than
those benefited. Commerce from
one part Of the state to another is
by more up-to-date methods of trans
portation than overland hauling. 1t
is Ia pet scheme of some good roads"
advocates to have progressive coun.
ties that have built their own roads
taxed to build roads for other coun' /
ties. Vote against candidates who
favor this scheme.

One Vote.

In Rhode Island in 1911 a candidate
for the Legislature was elected by
one vote because one of the sup
porters of his opponent stopped to
get squealing pig out of crack in
the fence and reached the poll two
minutes after it had closed. The
man elected cast the vote that chose
a Senator by one vote and the Sena-
tor elected cast the vote that declar-
ed war by a single vote in 1912.
Reasoning from this, a writer says
the war of 1872 was caused by the
squeal of a pig. A similar case
happened in 1916.
The annexatioe of Texas was &C
complished by a majority of one
vote in the United States Senate,
cast by Senator Hannegan of Ihdi-
ana. Senator Hannegan was elected
to the United States Senate by one
vote in the Indiana house of repre-
sentatives, that vote being cast by
Madison Marsh. member of the
legislature from Madison county,
Indiana. Marsh in turn was elected
to the legislature by one vote.

JUAREZ SAFE FOR PRESENT
lnsurrecto Leader Now on His Way to
Aque Prieta.

Ell Paso, Tex, April 1S.-According
to reports here from a source deemed
reliable, Francisco |. Nadero, Jr., chief
of the insurrecto forces, is now on his
way to Aqua Prieta, where, it is be-
lieved, he will set up his headquar-
tiers.
The last authentic reports regarding
the whereabouts of the insurrecto
leader placed him in the neighbor
hood of MADEIRA, in the northwestern
part of the state of Chihuahua, mid
way between Aqua Prieta and the city
Of Chihuahua. According to some re-
ports Madero was at the head of the
insurrecto force advancing upon Jua-
rez which engaged the federal troops
at Baucho last Saturday and which
has since disappea, ed. These reports.
however, received no confirmation,
and it is considered more than prob.
able that the insurrecto chieftain left
MADEIRA for Aqua Prieta, distance of
about $50 mlles, when the news of the
capture of the latter place reached
him. Members of the insurrecto
iunta here profess ignorance of Made
ro's exact whereabouts.
Whether this move on the part of
Madero is responsible for the abandon
ing of the advance on Juarez is mat
ter of surmise.
