WHY The @bIME" NOVEL?

WI ! E16 O4I4G NV Ell!
The other day, when a man was
murdered, some suspicion arose
that youthful bandits committed
the crime. The instant presump-
ton followed, as a matter of
course, that the deed was done
after reading dime novels"
That, in itself, is sufficient proof
that the stereotyped theory was
voiced, parrot-like, by someone
who never saw a boys blood-and-
thunder novel, for they cost a
nickel. 1t was ages since they
were "dime" products.
1t seems far-fetched, too, to
connect nickel novels with crime.-
For if there be one thing more
than another that Nick Carriers,
Old SIeuths and Deadwood Dicks
bludgeon into the readers mind it
is that the wrongdoer is INVAR-
IABLY made to pay the penalty.
No criminal ever escapes.
That is more than one can say
of the majority of crime stories
classed as real literature" Doyle,
Poe, Horung and other topnotch
writers of detective yarns may do
artistic work, but the morals of it
are generally worse than those of
the scorned and soiled yellow
back"-which, by the way, is
about the only article whose price
hasn't gone up with the increased
cost of living.

What a splendid opportunity was lost
to our county by the Governor falling 10
sign the Engineer Road bill, which was
passed by the Senate and House. The
citizens Of this county should especially
thank Mr.. Wordsworth and Mr.. Rams
burg, the champions of this bill for the
stand they took and to have the bill pass
ed, in face of opposition in their party.
This in my opinion. was one OF the best
road laws ever passed in our State, it
was modelled after the Caroline county
road law, and was suggested by Mr..
Jesse p King, prominent Republican
in this county, and a gentleman who has
always interested himself i'll good roads,
and is now president of the Good Roads
League OF Frederick, Montgomery, Car
roll aud Howard counties.
The failure of this bill to become law
is a step backward and means that this is
stIll a back woods county, as all progress
sive counties have road engineers. The
present Legislature passed A law bv
which this county is to vote whether they
will borrow eighty thousand dollars to
spend on our county roads. | hardly
think the voters and taxpayers would be
so foolish to vote for such vast sum TO
be spent under our present system OF
working the roads.
