The good roads movement which
is receiving so much attention all
over the state at the present time
is a good one. With a little work
on the part of each farm land owner
it will not be many years until bad
roads in the average settled coun-
try will be unknown. Road build
ing, like other kinds of work, is
getting to be a fine art. easily I'M
derstood if given a little study.
Road building in each different vi
entity must receive different atten-
ton, according to the soil and con-
ditions. That which will be good
for one district will not always be
good for some other. The auto
must receive its share of credit for
having started the good roads move
ment. as without good roads the
auto is practically useless. The
auto owner is in favor of good
roads, or else he cannot enjoy the
use of the machine, consequently
owners were the first to introduce a
well planned campaign in road
building. 1t is to be hoped the
work all over the state will be
J pushed. The man in town driving

One thing about the recent ad-
vance in the price of coal is the
tact that we don't have to buy a
great deal of hat article at this
time-perhaps by fall, when it is
again a necessary commodity, con-
gress will have thrown a scare into
the naughty, wicked coal barons
that will make them be good.

The war is over and all can now
settle down to business and forget
the strenuous campaign which we

easier for some to forget than for
others, but we will all manage to
live through it.

In these words John f. Mcintyre,
chief counsel for Police Lieutenant

der of Herman Rosenthal, the gambler,
sounded the keynote Of an appeal to
the jurors to acquit his client of the
murder.
He told the jurors that in the first

Ing Becker, that the four gunner
were guilty of the killing, otherwise
the case will fall" Rose could not
be believed, he charged, because he
was testifying to save his own life.

Harry Vallon he denounced as muir
derers with the same object In view.
He attacked the credibility Of the
states corroborating witnesses-Lu-

framed up by crooks
