When you pull down the town in
which is your home, you are pulling
down yourself and when you build up
you are building up yourself and
your neighbor. Try and Danish from
your mind the mistaken idea that all
good things are away off in some
other locality. Give your town all the
preise it can legitimately bear. 1t
certainly will do you no harm and
will cost you nothing; and above
all patronize your home institutions
including the printing office.

circuit court by the Wisconsin Uni

DELTON GOOD ROADS PLAN
Judge Marshall Explains
How Object Lesson
Will Be Made.

Judge r. d. Marshall of Madison,
who addressed the county board on
good roads question in Deton, explains
how the object lesson will be made as
follows:
The town of Delton is to furnish an
object lesson in good roads building.
The county has appropriated two
thousand dollars per year, heretofore
and the town the same for road build
ing in the latter. The yearly sum has
been divided betw cen several roads so
construction has been by the piece
meal method, at loss over the larger
way of at least fifteen per cent in the
judgment of Mr.. Post, highway COM
missioner. A change seemed to be inn
portant
Now the county board has voted
sixteen thousand dollars OF bonds for
us on four through roads of the town
of Delton on condition that the town
DOES the same AMI money IS contrib
uted in advance TO pay the interest.
Thus So, 900 or $36, 900 with money
heretofol voted, is within reach of the
town OF DeltOn for use on its main
roads, thus enabling it soon to obtain a
pretty good improved system of high
ways at a great saving i'll construction
cost and without any special burden
upon town or county, that burden be-
ing born by contributors. IT good roads
can be so obtained why should they
not be speedily constructed. The ex-
pertinent in belt, n will be watched
with interest.

The Roosevelt Tide.

A certain brand of high brow, allied
with a familiar type of low brow, led
the forces which defeated Stimson in
1910. and then Justify proclaimed their
victory as the end of Roosevelt. 1t is
seldom. however, that a popular Amer
lean leader loses power by doing right.
The high brows and the low-brows
saw Dix and Murphy and Barnes go
thru the antics of their species, to the
disgust Of the observant and silent
voter, who every year has to be more
reckoned with. The observant and si-
lent voter quickly noticed that the
overthrow of Roosevelt had meant
Barnes running one party and Murphy
the other, to the benefit of nobody ex-
cept those who dwell in the neighbor- :
hood Of the trough and have a pre-
scriptive right to keep their feet there
in. The colonel acted as a good Amer
lean citizen, and no punishment in the
long run could come to him for force,
wisdom and virtue. II a campaign for
the presidency should begin tomorrow,
and he were the republican nominee,
there is not democrat in the country
who could give him run for his
money - except Woodrow Wilson
said-"that would be a boss race"
AS experienced observers look over
the situation, the only equally close
race that is talked about is one be-
tween Governor Wilson and Mr.. Justice
Hughes, who, however, Is likely to re-
fuse to be a possibility.

DAVE BRAN1's CONCLUSION.

While there has been a lot of good
legislation, there have been vicious
laws passer but they have been the
exception. After reading or hearing
Mr. Clarkes address, Iowa people will
feel that little has been omitted in the
past ten years in the way of contribu-
ton to the good of the state.-loWa
City Republican.
This is a noteworthy, and moreover
a manly admission coming from the
Iowa City Republican. 1t must be read
backward as we'll as forward. If little
has been omitted in the way of con-
tribution to the good of the state. il
Lieutenant Governor Clarke has been a
highly useful man as legislator for
Iowa. then the progressive legislation
of the past decade in which Clarke has
borne his part as one of the leaders
must be approved. The inference is
that Mr.. Brant's newspaper approves
1t; and that approval may naturally
extend TO the policies if not the per-
sonalities of those with whom Mr..
Clarke has led and followed
II it may be SO read it is a conclus-
ion both wise and manly. II is a step
toward harmony. The republican par
~ long ago approved and fathered the
legislation which has marked progress
sive power in Iowa II is the only
basis of harmony. There can be no
unification between the old order and
the new except as the old accepts the
new. II is a law OF progress, inevita-
BILE as evolution.
There is no desire TO say y told you

cesses of chang
