After the war General Noble located
in st. Louis and resumed the practice
of law where he continued, except a
few years when he was in President
Harrison's cabinet as secretary OF
the interior
He often came to Keokuk to attend
special events and his visits here
We're in the nature of ovations so
welcome was he and so proud were
his former comrades and the citizens
generally who had known him, to see
the friend of lang syne.
General Noble was a great man and
a good man, with the courage of a
Sparton, the courteous dignity of a
gentleman and the plainness of a real
American citizen. he was at home in
any environment. In life he had the
respect of his fellow citizens, in
death his memory will be cherished.
If the chilly wings overspread him
and another fallen hero is counted
with the honored majority it may be
sung:
"On fame's eternal camping ground
Their silent tents are spread,
And glory guards with solemn round
The bivouac of the dead
Wherever he is known tears will be
Ished when the hour comes to bear him
/ to that home whence no traveller re
turns. Noble in name. his memory
will continue to be noble for the
deeds of valor and kindness he enact.
Ell during useful and eventful life.

which it could be employed here.

his remarks Mr.. Doherty adjourned

Altruistic Tendencies.

The speaker then referred to the
altruistic tendencies of the time as
shown by the forming of good roads
clubs, corr clubs and the sending
out Of good roads trains. He spoke
of the building of good highways as
important duties. In regard to what
a local club might do, Mr.. Fairbanks
said that u roads were too wide,
that the club might find that the en-
ployment of statuatory labor was
not satisfactory as the men who took
advantage of the clause to work out
their taxes on the roads were not
generally oyer anxious to give a full
days work. He further stated that
the club might consider the elimina-
ton of the ridges, in the center of

which isolated the wife, mother and
career which renders knowledge es-
sential and that the man who had
no knowledge was a mere slave.
This was what the man who lives
nine miles from the railroad with
out good roads subjects his chill
dren to.
The Colonel said that while Texas
had the best law in the United
States for the voting of bonds for
the building of good roads, there
were very few counties in the state
which had them. The Colonel said
that there had been $4,000 600
worth of bonds voted for good roads
in Texas during the past year. The
speaker remarked upon the awak-
ening of the people of Texas and of
the necessity of good roads to put
the people in contact with one an
other.

The Man With the Mule.

The speaker next touched upon
the fact that as a general rule the
rich man was not in favor of the
bond issue on the account of the
amount of taxes he would be forced
TO pay, but that the mar with a
team of mules, who rented 40 acres
Of land and was required to deliver
his bale of cotton on the platform
at the railroad station, confronted
the other man.
The Colonel then said that of
course the rich mar was not respon-
sible for the killing of the mule, of
the wear and tear on the wagon and
harness in bringing his cotton to the
station.
He further called attention to the
fact that there were more Of the men
who owned a team of mules and
rented 40 acres than the rich man
and that the poor mar could make
the rich man pay the additional
tax. The speaker further claimed
that the railroad would extend the
poor man the right hand Of fellow
as good roads were conducive
to getting an adequate amount of
tonnage.
The speaker then remarked on
the efforts of the Frisco to spread the

merchants of good roads, Colonel

said that he was willing at any time

with a committee. In conclusion
Colonel Hawley said that good roads
would make the country a perfect
PARADISE.

FOREST SERVICE y
IMPROVES COAST ROAD

Until the past summer, it was nee
essary for one who wished to 90
from Grants Pass to the coast. at the
mouth of the Rogue, to go either to
West Fork on the railroad, thence
by mail route trail from West Fork
to the mouth of Mule creek, and
thence down the Rogue river or BY
stage from Grants Pass to Crescen!
City, thence by stage up to Gold
Beach, either one of which was a
roundabout way of reaching the
coast.
During the past summer, the
United States forest service finally
completed the last link on a trail
upon which it has been working for
the past five years, which allows one
to leave Grants Pass, go to Galice,
and thence by trail following the
Rogue river to the ocean. The con-
struction of this trail has involved
some extremely heavy work, perhaps
the heaviest work, as far as trail
construction is concerned, in the
state. The first five miles immed-
diately above the suspension bridge
cost the service approximately ST.
200 per mile. When it is realized
that this stretch of trail is chiseled
out of solid rock cliffs, its cost cad
perhaps, better be appreciated. 1t
hangs along the side of the rock
( cliffs here, being from Is to $50 feet
above the water and the work in
VOlved in it's construction was very
difficult. In addition, the service has
constructed a suspenion bridge
across the river, having a clear span
Of 1856 feet, which cost approximate
F $4,000. This bridge is for pack
animals and foot passengers only
but was needed on account OF the in
ability to ford the stream at any
point during any portion OF the year
The bridge is approximately 60 feet
above low water mark. After cross
ing the river, the construction work
Involved was not so heavy, but as the
Ade slopes are nearly all loose or
Nlid rock, the cost per mile OF tho
rail has been exceedingly heavy
Owing to the lack OF funds, it has
een necessary to construct the traI
Is money was available and this has
aused the work to be spread over
eriod of FIVE summers, the last
ength Just having been completed
This last length connects with the
nail route at the mouth OF Mule
Eeek. All together, approximately
p" miles OF trail have been construct
d by the forest service, the mini
bum cost, perhaps, on any OF th''
York being $500 per mile, with
I Sa1imum Of $1,000 per mile ID
