ernment Is not panaca for all munl- cipal ills, neither is it an insurance against bad government It is an i1n- provement, it is a magnificent suc- cess, but it does not relieve the people from the responsibilities Of self-gov- ernment
 The problem of municipal govern ment after all is the problem of good citizenship. If the citizens take no in- terest in their municipal government and have no feeling of patriotism or pride in it's success, the commission plan, or for that matter any other plan, will prove failure. It must be remembered that with a commission or any other plan of gov- ernment the question of men and cit izenship is highly important. No plan ever devised will successfully run it. self. Patient labor, personal sacrifice and self-denial is the price of good government If the people and the public press demand high class of public servants and will pay the price, they will get them, but is civic pride among the people runs low and but little interest is taken in municipal affairs, a poor assortment Of office holders is bound to result GENERAL REFERENCES.

Oil Concrata Road.

The first stretch of oil concrete high
way to be laid IN Pennsylvania has Just
recently been completed on the Harris
burg Linglestown road. 1t is about a
quarter OF mile In length and is be
tween Progress and Paxtonia. The oil
concrete road Is an experiment on the
part Of the state highway department
which in 1907 rebuilt the highway from
the eastern terminus of the city to
Paxtonia..
The section just laid replaces quar-
ter OF mile Of road constructed Of
concrete. The new section of road is
made Of concrete into which are mixed
asphaltic oils. The top surface is not
arched SO much as the rest of the road,
the crown being constructed on basis
of three eighths Of an inch to foot.
The crown is the same az that used in
laying brick pavement.

DUST LAYING.
Oil Used by Canadian Town to Sprinkle
Streets

Consul Augustus G. Seyfert Of
Owen Sound, Ont, says that 1.-THE
sandy lake shore soil upon which
Owen Sound Is located results in very
dusty streets. No matter how much
rain falls or how much water is
sprinkled on the streets In an hour
thereafter the dust becomes a nuisance
and menace to health. To overcome
this the municipal authorities ex-
perimented with oil, which proved
such a success that now all the prin-
eipal streets In the town are oiled.
These thoroughfares are macadamized
and are first swept clean and the oil
put on Immediately after with the
sprinkler.
1.-THE objection at first was that the
odor from the crude oil was offensive,
but in day or two this disappeared,
and the change for the better to dust
less streets WAS recognized by all.
The first application of oil lasted six
weeks. and the second application was
put on the other day. and what

GRADES ON HIGHWAYS.
Three or FOUR Per Cent Slope Advis-
able For Heavy Traffic.

A ! per cent grade on road means
o rise of one foot for each hundred
feet OF distance Travelled up the hill.
10 per cont grade means ten feet
rise in each haadred feet SO Travelled
| per cent grade, then, means that
in travelling upAill one mile an ascent
IS nude Of 52.S feet While 10 per
cent grade means rise In altitude
of 528 feet in IA mile. Accurate tests
have shown that Il horse which can
pull 1000 pounds on level road can
pull only $40 pounds on rise Of one
foot in fifty, and on rise Of one
foot in ten he can pull only $50 pounds
These facts show that the greatest
load that can be hauled over road
is the load Which can be taken up
the steepest hill OIL that road OF
through the deepest mudhole. 1t is
therefore advised that all highways
travelled by heavily loaded vehicles
should be kept within or PEI
cent grade if practicable. To do this
may require a change of location to
get around hills, always keeping II
mind that the lower the grade the
larger the load may be hauled and
the cost Of haulage kept at the lowest
point.

Natural beauties of your town must

we must keep intact any beautiful nat
ural scenes which may seem to get In
the way of towns growth, but which
really have been the means of making
town what it is. Don't rob a town
of its old landmarks-pe perhaps dear to
the memories of many of the inhabit-
ants. Just this inspired the beautiful
lines:

Touch not a single bough.
In youth it sheltered me,
And III protect 1t now.
It may seem foolish for a person TO
think Of tree in this way. 1t is not.
Just these trifles may be the means of
keeping many of your townspeople
who have been born and raised In
your community at home-yes, be-
cause OF fond memories. If land
marks are ugly get to work and make
them presentable, but preserve them.

ORIGINAL SKETCHES
AN EASTER LEGEND

A long time ago there was a fam
inc in a far away country. The
people had to be very careful ofsthe
food that was left from the year be-
fore. The older people looked sad
but the children were as happy as
ever. At Christmas time there
were few presents. But the child
rem did not mind this because Easter
was their great holiday. The peo-
pie were sad when Easter came for
they did not know how to give the
childred a good time. One night
some of the mothers met to see what
could be done. But they could think
of nothing. One mother was very
sad because her little boy and girl
had been talking about the presents
and the good time they would have.
After the mother went to bed that
night she thought and thought. At
last she said right out in the dark.
81 have it. That will will be fine" "
and so began to laugh. But soon
she stopped for she was afraid of
waking the children. AS soon as
morning came she ran and told her
neighbor. One woman told another
till by night every mother knew it.
When Easter came they all went to
the church. The older people said,
LET us go out into the woods" So
they did. When thew got in the
woods shouts were heard. Some
were like this, 80, mamma, look"
''See what | found. mamma. 80,
papa, look. the children had
found all colors of eggs. Then from
behind a bush jumped a rabbit
where there was a large nest Of
eggs. One of the children saw the
rabbit and said. maybe it was a
rabbit that laid the eggs" Then
they all went home very happy.

TAKES ISSUE WITH PARKER.
ooodykeontz Explains Intent Of New
Banking Law.

Special to Times-Republican.
Boone. May 23.-Hon. w W. Cody
koontz, Of Boone, dtsagrees with City
A assessor Parker, Of Des Noines. who
has just issued a staten ert to the eff
feet that the city councils of Iowa must
meet every day during the month Of
June in order to live UP to the intent
of the new banking law. Mr.. Parker,
in an interview. said that the council
men would have to meet in session ev-
cry day and then adjourn until the next
day because the law said the city coun-
Gil shall meet as a board of review in
June OF each year. Parker holds that
the council not designating date left
a bad loophole and that the councils
can get around the situation dn no
manner whatever.
Mr.. Goodykoontz today states that
the law en,introduced and discussed
was made In just this manner so that
the councils could set date which
Euited localities, or conditions.
