MAT" Adams Dead.

Madison Adams, aged 60 years and
8 months, died at his home at Nyhart,
NO., late Monday evening, after a
prolonged illness. He had been in
failing health for long time and
some weeks ago was taken to Kansas
City, where he underwent an opera
ton in the hopes of improving his
condition.
Mat Adams, who was native born
Missourian, located in Bates county
in the early fifties and is identified
with the county's early history. In
the early days, when game was plen-
tiful and the rivers and creeks were
teeming with fish, Mat Adams was a
mighty hunter and a good fisher
man. He knew the run of the
deer, the roosts of the wild turkey,
the haunts of the quail, and where
mallard and wood duck used. He
lived close to nature and drinking at
her fountains of wisdom, acquired a
broad and comprehensive knowledge
of life. He was always active in pub.
lie affairs and figured prominently in
the development of the country. One
of natures noblemen, he was true to
a friend, generous to a fault, honora-
BILE, conscientious and possessed of
high ideals.
He was twice married, first to Miss
Laura Berryhill, and to this union
were born three children, two of
whom survive. Some years after the
death of his first wife he was united
in marriage to Miss Kate Lamb, who
survives him.
Funeral services were held at the
residence Wednesday morning and
was made in Ashley ceme-
tery.

MASS MEETING FAVORS
ROCK ROAD PROJECT
State Highway Engineer Curtis Hill
Addressed Meeting Vt Road
Enthusiasts Tuesday Night

The mass meeting held in the court
room Tuesday evening to discuss
with the Commercial Club the propo-
sition to issue bonds for the construc-
ton of rock roads in the township
was attended by a good crowd of
road enthusiasts, although many of
the farmers of the township were un-
able to be present.
State Highway Engineer Curtis
Hill addressed the meeting on the
subject of building permanent roads
in the township, and having made a
trip of inspection during the after
noon was able to make conserva-
tive estimate upon the probable cost
to build and maintain the roads in
question.
Mr.. Hill estimates that a road run
ming from the north to the south
boundary of the township, and a
similar road running east and west,
fifteen feet in width, macadamized in
in the center to depth Of eleven
inches tapering to nine inches at the
sides, may be built at a cost of 81, 900
per mile, or a total cost of SAC, 900.
1t is estimated that fifteen year bonds
issued for this amount could be re-
tired at maturity by the levy of the
additional twenty-five cent tax al
lowed under the law for road pur-
poses, and in addition thereto, fur
nish ample revenue for the proper
maintainence of the townships roads.
Mr.. Hill discussed the road ques-
ton at length, pointed out the many
benefits to be derived from the con-
struction of permanent roads, and
gave actual figures showing the enor-
nous difference in cost of transporta-
ton over bad roads and good roads.
Mr.. Hill is thoroughly familiar with
his subject and his talk was highly
interesting and instructive. At the
close of his remarks he devoted sew
eral minutes to answering questions
and discussing details.
At the suggestion Of Chairman
Cannon vote was taken to decide
whether or not to proceed in an at
tempt to carry out the proposition,
only one vote being cast in the mega
tive.
The matter of proceeding further
was referred to the good roads COM
mittee and the campaign was left in
their hands.
