plant. who was found in the place, was
arrested with Moses Dawson inc Mar
shall Canon. the latter a negro. who
were caught operating the ~5o-gallon still.
The prisoners when arraigned before
United States Commissioner Shields were
placed under bail for examination on
Tuesday on the charge of violating the
Internal Revenue law BY running a dis
tillery without a Federal license. The
bonds In the sases OF Cohen and Davi-
son were placed at $500 and Canon's
bail was fixed at $500.
The sim and about six hundred gal

on the lower east side. The s,ill had
been running about a month.

Corporal punishment is forbidden In

view OF these developments.
The matter is again revived through
Admiral Luce's article, as mentioned
above, and by the editorial comment
thereon by the New Orleans Picayune,
The Picayune says:
PICAYUNE'S EDITORIAL.
The United States has very con-
siderable modern navy. 1t has the
beginnings OF a great navy, aud 1t Is
able to build as many chips as 1t may
need for defense, and IL is for defense
that It's navy, however great, should
be intended
But II should be remembered that
the defense Of this great republic
means not only the protection Of Its
six thousand miles OF seacoast, but
the maintenance OF that grand conti-
mental or hemisphere policy, the
Monroe Doctrine.
Therefore, 1t Is impossible at this
date to set limits to what shall be the

NATIONAL GOOD ROADS BUILDING

This Necessity On Plane Of Country. Importance
And interest - The Cost OF Unlmpoved Rural
Roads Reaches Staggering Total OF Money

Advocates OF good roads have made
remarkable progress In their light 10
all parts ~ the country, but there has
been the absence Of u nation wide In
terest 10 the subject that has acted
as an impeachment TO the fuller and
more rapid realization OF country
devoid OF poor roads. IL has often
been claimed that good roads cost
money, but In the fnal analysis the
cost OF poor roads is far In excess.
Senator Bankhcad OF Alabama has
long been an advocate OF good roads,
lie has done good work 10 bringing
Into realization much OF the mileage

state. On Thursday OF last week the
senator placed the good roads move.

bill for the improvement OF the hivh'
ways OF the nation. That day was
the first on which bills could be intro

Senator Bankhead's bill was one o.
the first TO be submitted. Its fate II

GOOD ROADS BILL.
The terms Of the bill introduced b.
Senator Bankhead are, OF course, a
this writing unknown. IL is probabl
that he seeks TO have the nation wor
In conjunction aud harmony with tn
several state governments. Be tina
as IL may, opponents Of the bill wi
likely raise the cry OF cost and tn
bugaboo OF cost has often proven
potent weapon 10 the hands OF skille
lighters for or against any propos
tion. In considering the plea Of cos
OF constructing good roads, II is moi
logical to reverse the argument an
consider the actual cost OF unin
proved highways--the expense TO eac
individual by reason OF poor roat
through the community.

OF various kinds. Among other thin
that have been ascertalned, II hi
been shown that there are 2,l5l,5
miles OF wagon roads In the Unite
States. or this immense total onl
176,429 miles are improved. This in
proved roadway is but So per cent

has been further shown by statistics
that the cost per mile of the unlm-
proved roads Is greater 10 the indi-
vidunl, or per ton OF matter, farm or
forests products, carted over these
unimproyed roads Ia on an average OF
% cents per ton. The cost for the
same baulage over good roads Ia about
ten cents per mile.
COST OF BAD ROADS.
The New Orleans Weekly Item In
recent issue thoroughly discussed the
subject Of the cost Of unimproved
roads, the array OF facts and figures
being a revelation. That paper said:
or all the 2l5l, $40 miles OF wagon
roads 10 the United States, there are
but 81 per cent, or l76, 400 miles, Of II
unprecedented with crushed stone
or something better.
Each year 265, 000,0 900 tons OF farm
aud forest products are hauled Il
markets, or To railway stations, owe
American wagon roads. This haulinI
costs on an average OF $432, 600, 900, o
% cents per ton per mile.
According to the latest government
figures IL costs about ten cents a toI
per mile to haul the same product
over an improved highway Thus !
all our roads were improved IL woulI
mean a saving OF 1900, 900, 600 a year 4
hauling alone to the farmer, an
