Good Roads. There is no one
subject that interests the farmers
and miners more than good roads
During the past ten days SO
many object lessons have been
given that it would seem super
fuous to even imagine that any
one could be dense enough to
object to any plan that would
give the people a read available
for travel in the fall and spring.
If one noticed the half dozen
mules attached to a load Of
tobacco that one mule would haul
on a hard clean road this one
argument would be sufficient to
make him an ardent advocate of
any plan of improvement.

deems it proper to present 6
somewhat detailed account OF
what is being done today and OF
the men who are doing it.
In this connection it is most
gratifying to note the names OF
several of the oldest and fnan-
cially strongest American firms
who are today interested in
the mining and sale of fiuor spar.
Such houses as Matthew, AGdy
& Co, Rogers, Brown & Co.
Hickman Williams & Co, all
having branches in our larger
cities and who handle practically
all of the pig iron and much OF
the coke produced in the United
States.
The demand for fuor spar is a
constantly growing one, many
new uses are being found for
this wonderful mineral and from
a few hundred tons per annum
thirty years ago the consumption
in 1912 will be in excess of 49,
600 tons.

particulars will probably never
be known. The owners of the
property were away for the night
and the whole building was en-
veloped in flames when neigh

actually came to Mr.. Gregory's

Henry S. Barker head of the
Kentucky State University says,
Higher public education is
necessary for the better protec'
ton Of property rights against
agrarianism: when the country
was young and sparcely settled
when there was plenty Of elbow
room, for all plenty of public
lands to be had for the asking,
property was secure and all were
contented: but with the filing up
of the continent by our marvel
GUS immigration, men are begin
ming to jostle each other in an
uncomfortable manner and the
call for patriotic craftsmanship
resulting from this conflict of in-
terests were never insistent or
necessary as now.
The necessity for higher educa-
ton was never so pressing as now.
He is bat a superficial observer
who fails to see the sentiment of
the people is rapidly changing in
regard to many public questions.
But a few years ago the corpora
lions though they were owners of
their property in fee simple and 4;
could do with it as they pleased.
Now they are being taught that
in many cases they are trustees
for the benefit Of the people and
have only a limited interest in
the property: instead of being
masters, they are trustees sub
ject to the control of the law for
the benefit of the public. The
people are coming more and
more to the front in the matter
Of legislative control, in the con-
.rol of their representatives and
he enforcement Of the laws.
We are hearing new terms and
phrases, which we hardly yet
'ully understand, the iniative the
referendum aud the recall These
words are far reaching toward
lbsolute democracy. II
If the people are really intend I
ng to take their Government into {
heir own hands, it behooves |
hem to be deeply learned in the c

science of law and profoundly
skilled in the practicalities of ad-
ministration. If they are educa-
ted and wise they will not lie
afraid to change a law or a prin-
ciple of government because the
proposed change is new. nor. on
the other hand, will they be over
anxious TO change a principle lof
law simply because it is old ;they
will not have the fear of the ig-
norant reactionary on the one
hand nor the reckless haste of
the inexperienced on the other.
The educated man knows the
past and is able to profit by the
experience of those who have
gone before; he does not believe
that every proposed change is
necessarily good but on the other
hand is not like Burke overmuch
impressed with the awful "hoar
of the ages" Education gives
wisdom and confidence. 1t places
the citizen above the wiles;of the
demagogue and enables him to
take charge of his own affairs
and administer them for his own
benefit"

Mr.. May had been suffering from the
disease for long time and for severa,
months had been patient at GEORGETOWN

improved about month ago that he was
allowed to leave the hospital and return

that he would entirely recover from the
disease. and it was only week ago that
he was allowed to take a short walk.
Recently his condition received a setback
and during the past few days he sank
rapidly. Arrangements have not been
completed for the funeral.
Mr.. May was a native of Georgetown
and was born about fifty-five years ago.
He came of an old Georgetown family
which has lived in that part of the CITY
for two generations.
His store in Wisconsin avenue is one
of the old land marks of Georgetown.
and for thirty years Mr.. May has been
engaged in the tobacco business in the
same block
He was unmarried and is survived by
a brother. John May. and a sister, Mrs.
John G. Reckert, with whom he lived.
