An obstacle To Road Improvement.

person rarely takes to proposition
until he is convinced OF its merits. or that
it will have beneficial effect on his in.
teresis. This is true in every line of
business and in every phase, of life. and
it is especially tLue when the proposition
involves the expenditure of money or
labor. II is plain. therefore. that those
from whom the money and labor for inn
proving our roads must come must FIRST
be convinced that it will inure to their
beneficial interests and general welfare.
This has been one Of the greatest OBJ
stacles to road improvement. After more
than ten years Of active campaigning to
emphasize the necessity for the work,
says Logan Waller Page. director of the
United States office of Public Roads, in
the National Grange, its Importance has
not been fully realized by the people
Some of them, in fact, many of them
thoroughly appreciate the vast economic
and social advantages which will result
from good roads. but the majority do not.
reversal of this majority will be the
greatest achievement yet attained by the
agitation for road improvement. and the
only method whereby that may be ac-
complished isthrough systematic educa-
tion Of the people as to the benefits which
will accrue to them.
The advantages of good roads extend to
every citizen, whether be live in city or
country and to every enterprise whether
it be agricultural. manufacturing or
mining All are more or less dependent
on the common highways as an avenue
Of the commercial transportation. and in
proportion as these highways are inn
proved so as to facilitate transportation
are they benefited thereby These bene-
fits have been computed and estimated in
dollars and cents, AMI so enormous have
they been thus demonstrate to be that
thev present convincing argument to
any thinking man of the Importance and
necessity for road Improvement.

The general apathy that seems to pre-
vail IN the present presidential campaign
is attributed by the managers in great
measure to the lack of funds. The time
has arrived for 4he usual 'swhirlwind
finish and while the campaign is by no
means at standstill, there is an absence
of the whooping of things up all along
the line that is as usual thing INDUCED
in during the closing days of presiden-
tial campaign. It is claimed none of the
parties has surplus of funds, and about
all that can be scraped together will be
required TO foot bills for printing, adver
tising and the expenses of speakers
But times have changed and the
day of noise and redfre seems on the
wane. There is more reading matter
than ever. and more newspaper adver
Using. and this method Of reaching the
voter is being resorted 10. The political
managers are beginning to realize that
the voter Of today cannot be influenced
by the .'hurrah'' methods employed In
campaigns of other days. when money
was distributed among the workers to
make . big noise. So il is. that while
there may be an apparent lack Of interest,
the big majority Of voters have long ago
made up their minds how they will mark
their ballot, and are merely sitting
tight" and letting the politicnl managers
worry about their failure TO stir up the
usuul enthusiasm.

CIVIL MARRIAGES
ONLY, SHE URGES

Advocating the abolition of marriages
by clergymen, Mrs. Anna Carlin Spen-
Ger, of New York, in a lecture last
night in Unity Church, Montclair, urged
that laws be passed which forced all
such unions to be civil functions, per-
formed by special magistrates. The
lecture was in the course on Prob
lens of Today Her subject was
Some Problems of Marriage and Df-
vorce."
A marriage license, she c~ontended,
should be conditioned on the charac-
ter of the applicants and should be per-
formed only by special magistrates
authorized by the State. Justices who
by 6 are unable to longer sit on the
bench and who have proved honorable,
she said, should be delegated to per-
form marriages. 1t would be an o
orable position, especially when women
reach the bench, she added.
The unfit should not be allowed to
marry" she said. 1.-THE largest tendency
to breaking up homes is the marriage
of degenerates; which generally leads
to crime. The State could prevent
such marriages.
"Ther is a movement in some
States" she said. ito sterilize crimi-
nails. Out of 100, 900 degenerates in this
country only 1900 are under control,
while the others are out in the world
propagating after their kind"
She advocated legal provision for an
investigation before an impartial court,
- Inn, 41no 1A-R1a.sNn - IA4k
to the divorce, from which newspaper
reporters should be excluded, before a
divorce is granted. The investigators
might recommend separation for a
short time, when a change OF sur
roundjngs would probably bring them
together again. This would tend to
commercial traffic in divorce
by lawyers.
'There is an increase in divorces to
an alarming extent and the people in
foreign countries are apt to think that
we are going fast to perdition," she
said. divorce is more prevalent among
the rich. The desire to live more
luxuriously than one can afford Is one
cause. When the income is cut down
there is bound to be trouble and con
fusion.
Brutality Of some husbands is
another cause that leads to divorce.
Woman in her present social condition
will not longer endure the suffering
and i~ndecencies they nave in the past
They will not tolerate it. They will re-
fuse to live in marriage with polluted
husbands. In some countries no mar
rage is allowed after divorce, but it
has been shown that absolute divorce
with freedom to remarry is much bet
ter for society,""
