whether it is because litigants
are becoming more Opulent and SO
able to pay for litigation, or
whether it Is for some other reason
the Supreme Court of the United
States is becoming so clogged with
business that it is difficult to get
decisions within the lifetime of lit
igants. The creation of new courts
to help care for this press of bust
ness does not seem to give any ap-
preciable relief.

The Adamstown town council is
farming out the use OF the streets
of that town under contract. This
Is an unusual way, other towns
and cities requiring franchises. 1T
Is doubtful whether contract right
yin hold in the courts. Those
using the streets of a town ought
20 sbea required to obtain franchises,
unless there be found something in
the law that does not require any
thing of that kind.

~ today are worse than they were
fifteen years ago. True, there has
been and today greater and
harder use of the roads than hfteen
years ago, but the wealth and de-
yelopme4t have grown by leaps and
bounds and the county ought to be
in condition now to have not only
as good roads as fifteen years ago,
but also far better ones even to the
degree of their being strictly mod
aern. That the county must awaken
to the road problem and meet It, II
It would continue its march of prog
ress and maintain its high rank
among the counties of the state, can
not be denied, and unless it does thus
awaken and solve the road problem,
not may years will have passed be-
fore it. will be found out-classed
and falling back into its primitive
condition.
II is suggested that the system of
making and repairing roads in this
county as well as in most parts OF
the state has been and is wrong.
There certainly is considerable
truth in the suggestion. Enormous
amounts of money have been and
are being spent on the roads of
Harrison county, and yet the county
has, no roads IN the winter time, in
deed, It has reached the point where
instead of bad~roads two or 4hree
months in the year, there are good
roads instead only two or three
months in the year. AS already
shown heSein there Is no true econ
oray in that situation. To the contrary
it Ii a permanent expense and bur
den without anything like fair re-
turn. 1T is largely the system, that
is at fault and not those who have
had and now have charge of the
road building and repair in the
county, as an these years and at
present there has. been and is an
earnest desire manifest to have the
best roads possible. The system and
the desire are not harmonious. The
system has failed and in conse-'
quence the desire has not been
gratffed or met
That there must be a new system
is apparent. What it is to be must
be worked out. 1t should be one
that will. insure, good roads. Other
states, other counties, are progress
ing in the good roads movement.
Why should not Harrison be? There
must be a modern solution of this
question, If the county is to stay in
the modern class. Money as spent
on the roads now is virtually
wasted. This waste is and has been
owing to the system in vogue. There"
must be a new. system.
The magisterial districts the com
ing year will pay about $4,000 out
for road work. This does not in
clude the cities- and towns in the.
county as they look after their own
roads. The rate of levy in the dis
tricts for road. purposes is thirteen
cents on the 500. The present rate
of taxation for road purposes is
enough by a bond issue to pave goo
miles Of roads in Harrison county at
$4,000 a mile.
Thus, it seems that a bond issue
would bring quick results and BEN
efits. whether it is what the people
want the Telegram does not know
but 1t Is certainly worthy OF careful
investigation as a proper solution
of the road question.

The Ionia Chautauqua

Reports from other cities where
Chautauqua meetings were held during
the past two weeks, show that the local
promoters made decided success finan-
| cially of the meeting here, comparative
ly. Lansing with larger drawing
radius and nearly ten times as many
people fell behind nearly $500. And no
better or higher grade of talent was
provided there than at the local course.
Hastings with practically the same
number of people TO draw from as here
seems TO have won the honors, if that
term can be used in this connection for
financial failure, the promoters there
losing nearly $1,000 on their venture.
The higest estimate on the excess of ex-
penses over the receipts here will not
exceed $500.
Yet while the venture may not seem

Will See Circus at Ionia

Thousands of people from Bedding
and immediate neighborhood will see
Forepaugh and Sells Brothers big cir
Gus al lonia on Saturday July %
Transportation lires are preparing for
the day and the indications point TO a
great circus event.
The Forepaugh and Sells Brothers
organization this season is remarkably
attractive, more SO then ever before in
its fifty years travel. The performance
is being given by the worlds 400 best
artists, the menagerie has been newly
reorganized and the forenoon parade is
a masterwork of pageantry.
Capt. Webb's two troupes of riding
and Juggling seals, Taylor's wonderful
monkey and dog circus, the Hines
Kimball troupe of acrobats, the Alvo,
the Alpine and the Lafayette families
of aerialists and the fifty funniest
clowns on earth are few of the more
prominent features. There are over 100
big acts, all novelties and the entire
show is newly equipped and costumed.
Over 50, 900, 600 has been spent in build
ing the new outfit and the result is
dazzling.
For many years the Forepaugh and
Sells Brothers circus has been the
pattern of excellence. This year it is
vastly improved and enlarged. Itnow
travels on train more than one mile
in length. Its many tents cover ten
acres of ground and it gives employ
ment to 1,124 men, and women and
children. In the menagerie are 72S
the rarest specimens OF animal life and
in the canvas stables are $50 of the fin
est horses in the world.

Eulogized Christian Science

A defense and eulogy of Christia n
Science were made in the u. 5. Senate
one day last week by Senator Works OF
California in opposing Senator Owens
bill for a department of public health.
He denounced it as an attempt by the
American Medical Association TO con-
troll medical activities. 1t was the
first time any Senator had ever heard
an associate discuss his religious belief.
Indications of establishment and interest
were equally divided.
Senator Works said he had been a
sufferer for years from Il com plication
of diseases and had tried every school
of medicine in vain, the last being oste-
opathy.
"Ten years ago, " he continued, 81 de-
MED and ridiculed the claim of the
Christian Scientists 10 the power to heal
diseases. But the time came when

work, and thought the time approach

from the time commenced To take the

gained, until became fully healed"
''The thing that seemed TO appeal
most to me-" said the Senator, twas
the fact that my son was healed of the
drink habit after he had arrived at the
age of manhood and after he had be-
come so addicted TO the habit that we
nursed him like child. After one of
his experiences and recovery from
long spell he said to his mother:

done for you and father. l have be-
lieved that could cure myself by my
own will. l find | cannot"
"He consented To have Christian
Scientist called and he was cured. He
has not taken drink for seven years. -

saying to themselves. 1t is all delu-
sion. But II it is hope the delusion

Races at Detroit

With the twenty-frst renewal OF the
Merchants and Manufacturers stake
about three weeks away there is greater
difference in opinion as TO the result OF
the classic of the trotting turf than al
this time of other years. The $4,000
fixture of the Detroit Driving Club will
be raced at the state fair grounds on
August 2 and so far there has been no
strong sentiments in favor of any single
entry. In fact good words are said of
more than half dozen of them and as
these trotters seem of about the same
speed the outlook for spectacular con-
test is much better than i'm other re-
newals.

A GREAT TRIO
Michigan Favors Taft, Osborn and
Smith For Reelection

That there is wide spread sentiment
throughout the state of Michigan for
the denomination and reelection of
VIM. III. Taft for President, of the
United States. Hon. Chase >. Osborn
for Governor, OF Michigan and VIM.
Alden Smith for United States Senator,
can not be disputed and in all probable
ity that sentiment will grow in intensi-
ty until accomplished. While Senator
Smiths stand on the canadian recipro-
city measure does not please many OF
his constituents ii is well known that
he is of sufficient calibre to adjust him
self TO any condition and situation
which the pact may occasion should it
become law and will throw his whole
weight into action in favor of the wis
est policy to pursue there after.

w. c. T. u. Notes.

ssThe saloon is no place to bring up a
Young man, That declaration was
made one morning last week by John
X uschewski toJ Judge Phelan of Detroit.
For ten years Kuschewski had been the
keeper of saloon at Buchanan street.
On the occasion of his statement that
that the saloon was no place to bring
up young man he was standing before
Judge Phelan to answer to charge OF
violating the law through keeping his
place open on Sunday. Kuschewski
had boy of his own that he was en-
deavoring to take care of. While ne
and his wife were AWAY from home for
day the boy went into the saloon ac-
companied by some other boys. "That
made me Disguised with the business,
said X uschewski. 81 quit ii and now
am i'm the coal and wood business.
He quit the saloon business for the sake
OF one boy. The boy was his own, and
he knew how how much more he was
worth or should be than all the saloons
in Detroit. And yet the effort to close
saloons for the sake of the boys when
each saloon means the destruction OF
scores of boys is by some regarded as
fanatical and absurd. John Kuschew-
ski found out the real truth as TO the
fanatical charge. He quit the saloon
business for the sake of one boy-his
boy.
