Of Minnesota House, IS
Capital City Visitor

ment Might Cooperate on
Building Good Roads
Economy lld Practically Of
Scheme Make Il Worthy
Of Study

Among the visitors in the Capital
City Tuesday was l.. H. Johnson of
Minneapolis. MI. Johnson is a for
mer speaker of the Minnesota house
Of representatives. He is a bridge
contractor and is spending several
weeks in North Dakota looking after
matters of business interest. Mr..
Johnson has been prominently iden-
titled with committees on good roads
in the Minnesota Legislature and has
given the highway question consider
able thought and study.
One Of the principal features of in
terest for Mr.. Johnson at Bismarck
was the fact that there was no wagon
bridge across the Missouri river. The
bridge question is one in which he Is
deeply interested, and although a pro-
ject Of the magnitude of a wagon
bridge across the Missouri is too
large for his firm to handle he has
given the question much thought, es-
pecially in its relationship to good
roads.
Mr.. johnson advances a new idea
in regard to q wagon bridge across
the Big Muddy which should be Of in
terest to every resident in the state.
At the present time there is pending
before the national congress a bill ap-
propriating some thirty or forty mil
lions of dollars for constructing good
highways in the United States. Mr..

be cooperation between the several
states of the union and the federal
government in constructing good roads
throughout the country. The case at
Bismarck and Mandan is a fair ex-
ample of conditions existing in many
other parts of the country.
Mr.. Johnson's plan for. good roads
construction throughout the country
is as follows: Let the congressman
of this state introduce a bill asking
for an appropriation to construct a
wagon bridge across the Missouri
river at this; point. Let the govern
ment in future years maintain this
bridge. But let the bridge be built
only on the stipulation that the state
of North Dakota pass a law for the
construction and maintenance Of a
trunk highway from Fargo through
Bismarck to the Montana line.
AT Williston there is also need for
a wagon bridge, and a similar appro-
priation should be sought for on con.
diti0n, say, that a trunk highway be
h,,i1f from Croud Eorko IN uyiJ11o&op
and through to the Montana line. At
Pierre in South Dakota there is a like
need. In Oklahoma. Kansas, Nebras-
ka, Arkansas and all Of the western
states assistance such as this from
the federal government would aid ma.
terially in securing good roads, but at
lesser expense to the United States.
The two governments, state and ma
tional, would cooperate, and the

ment of tens of thousands of extra
men in the wheat belt means an in.
creased expenditure for every farmer,
and the business men of the smaller
towns profit by it. The ultimate ef.
feet Is to hold up trade in staples,
and jobbers feel definitely this influ-
ence at a time when normally they
would have q slump m orders. And
this is an influense OF which the East
takes little account, but 1t Is a large
factor in the business of the entire
crop.producing region. 1t goes a long
way toward carrying the country mer-
chant over the dull period, and saves
his years total business from showing
q two months deficit. With crops
coming on as they now indicate, this
is a matter to be considered, and 1t
means a steady progress during the
coming six weeks for all the territory
tributary to this market.
Another thing that Is encouraging

Just now is the Improvement in collec-
lions. It is we'll known that, for the
past year, country merchants have
found their customers inclined to car
ry their accounts longer than usual.
Part Of this was due to the short
crops Of last season, part Of 1t to the
disposition to wait until the coming
crops we're assured; the late spring
and the doubt concerning prices had
also their influence. Now the farmer

available bushel Of grain and hay left

others, by p~rolonging the feeding sea-
son, have, with the stif market, play.

comfortable profit. The rains since

large and small, throughout the West.

BILL WILL PROVIDE
CHANGE IN OFFICERS

Especial Dispatch to The Journal)
GREENSBORO, Ca, July 9.-Senator
E. A. Copelan, of the Nineteenth dis
trict, and Representative George A.
Merritt. of Greene, will introduce a bill
in both branches Of the state legislature
providing for a change in the manage
ment of Greene county affairs. Greene
has now one county commissioner, but
the new bill provides for a board of
five to be selected by popular vote in the
county. The county will be divided
into FIVE districts and one commission
er will come from each district.
1t was widely commented when the
proposed change wSs agitated to let the
new commission take charge of affairs
as soon as the bill was passed, which
would not permit the present commits
sioner to serve out his term of office.
But it has been decided to permit the
present commissioner to serve his term,
which is about two more years.

Escapes Many Sentences

ordinary's court Tuesday afternoon and
Will soon be conveyed to Milledgeville.
Relatives appeared i'm the court to testify
about Talley's peculiar fondness for gun
play. showing his unusual delight when
shooting into a crowd regardless of whom
his bullets happened to hit.
One of his relatives estimated that Tai
ley has been arrested fully Is times for
discharging firearms within the city. He
has shot numerous people. Once he was
arrested for shooting three men In the
same week. Another time he entered
house where he knew no one and shot
the pictures out of the frames. His espe-
cial delight was shooting up a saloon,
regardless of whether or not an enemy
was in the crowd towards which he
aimed his revolver.
Talley once gained fame in a battle
with Dan Shaw for the title of King of
Blind Tigers. Little was said at the
trial about this phase of his career.
Despite his numerous arrests, Talley
has served only a few days in the stock
ade, his lawyers always managing to get

ployed and the insanity writ which had

SOUTH AMERICAN TRADE
DISCUSSED BY FINLEY
President of Southern Railway
Thinks Conditions Are Fa-
VOrabIe for Development
Especial Dispatch to The Journal)

~ WASHINGTON. July 1O.-"An condi-
tions seem TO be peculiarly favorable
just at this time for the development
of direct trade between the south At
lantic and gulf ports and the Latin
American countries" said President Fin
lev, of the Southern Railway company,
referring to the recent establishment OF
direct steamship service from New Or
leans to the east coast Of South America
and the arrangements which have been
made to inaugurate direct steamship
service from Mobile to the east coast
Of South America on September H.
The monthly summary of commerce
and finance of the United States for
the month OF April just issued by the
bureau of statistics in the department
of commerce and labor, shows that dur
ing the ten months ended April 80, 1912,
the total value OF exports from the
United States 20 Central and South
America and the West Indies amounted
to s2i6.2i6.S16. an increase of S26,5Of'Z1S or
IA per cent as compared with the cores
ponding ten months last year.
The new steamship lines from the
gulf are TO operate directly to ports of
Brazil, Argentina and Uruguay and the
trade of the United States with these
countries is increasing even faster than
with the Latln-AmeFlcdn countries dS d
whole.
The figures for the ten months ended
April 30, 1912, show that the total value
of exports from the United States to
these countries for the period amounted
to 81, 993. go. an increase Of Sl5,Gl1,77S, or
. per cent over the corresponding period
last year During the ten months pc
riod this year the total value of inn
ports into the United States from these
countries was Sl3S. 549.1S7, an increase Of
SIS. sol, $40, or more than 16 per cent over
last year. With trade in both directions
growing rapidly and with the South
American markets taking increasing
quantities OF commodities that can be
produced advantageously In the southern
states. the inauguration of this direct
steamship service should be followed by
a substantial increase in the export bust
ness OF our southeastern merchants and
manufacturers"
