brushed them angrily away. Then we
both laughed little Historically.

she do piece work."

Special Correspondence.

Washington, April %. -Congressman
Smith is endeavoring to have the fed
eral buildings which have been author
lied in Idaho at Twin Falls, Pocatello,
Idaho Falls and Occur d'Alene, and
those which will hereafter be authoriz-
ed constructed of Idaho stone. He has
explained to the treasury department
officials that there is located near Boise
Idaho, and inexhaustable supply of the
finest building stone and that near
Oakley and in Bear Lake county there
is great quantity of the finest marble
and granite.
The assistant secretary of the treas
ury. Mr.. Allen, has advised Mr.. Smith
that the department is always glad to
use local materials whenever possible,
but that the specifications call for pro-
posals of sandstone and limestone and
that no particular quarry or section of
the country can be designated.
Mr.. Smith was assured however that
he would be supplied with lists of the
general contractors on public buildings
throughout the western country to
whom plans and specifications are be-
ing sent and to whom the local stone
dealers in the state can supply their
samples and prices. Mr.. Smith has ar
ranged to have placed on exhibition at
the treasury department any samples
Of building stone which may be supplied
by Idaho dealers.
A careful investigation made by the
correspondents of the Philadelphia
Press, an independent paper, through
out Pennsylvania and published in {
series of six articles, shows conclusively
according to their words, "that pro
gressiveism as an independent organi
cation is waning, that Roosevelt's pop
ularity is steadily diminishing and tina
the gepszsi tendency of the politica
trend is tsvard the republican fence.
...The light of Mr.. Roosevelt's per
sonality has dimmed simultaneous,

IrNportance of Good Roads.

In the up. building of country towns,
making farming more profitable and
rural life more pleasant, there is moth
ing of greater Importance than good
reads.
Every farmer is vitality interested in
good roads and should give the move
ment his active support in his commu-
nifty. The farmers are the ones who
suffer most from bad roads for the
simple reason that the most expensive
transportation of farm products is from
the farm to the railroad station. The
haulage to the nearest best market or
shipping point must be counted as part
of the cost of production; it comes out
of the price received by the farmer for
his produce Better roads will save
hundreds of millions of dollars annually
to the farmers of the United States.
Good roads facilitate and increase
communication between the country
and the town and therefore stimulate
business and increase the trading
radius of any town or city which has
good roads leading into it from the
country. Every merchant should be a
loyal supporter of the good roacs
movements which means a more pros
porous country community and that the
home town will get more of the trade.
By diminishing the expense of car
riage and facilitating highway travel,
good roads put the remoter parts of the
country more nearly upon level with
those in the close neighborhood of tie
town or city; they give the country
dweiler every advantage of the city
while retaining the greater room ard
healthfulness of country life.
The sooner we realize that bad roads
are in reality more costly than gooc
roads, the better. Good hard roads are
the only sure foundation upon which
cheaper transportion and greater
country prosperity can stand. And il
should not be forgotten that the proper
maintenance of roads is as important as
their construction. If properly built
their maintenance will cost much les!
than the necessity of periodical re
construction where they are neglected

ton will find progressiveism in the coal
mining regions but memory.
''The life of the new party is ebblng
while it's leaders are assuming an air
of Indifference. The general opinion is
that the cause has now burned too low
to be revived. Former converts from
the republican forces, realizing this,
are steadily retreating to their original
camps, and the hope of the progressive
