trian naval division has left Trieste
with 10000 troops, with the inten-
tion OF occupying Antiyari Dulcigno
and San Giovanni di Medua and ad-
yancing against Cottinic.
The Strassberger Post asserts that
the German Emperor has received a
telegram saying the Austrians have
already entered Montenegro. This
probably is premature, but litde
doubt Is now felt that Austria is de-
termined to move along unless the

resolves upon European action.

Numbers do not always insure

combined. Thirty new girls have

number of new boys have been

both Clubs are beginning work
earlier and, seemingly, with more
interest than last spring.
We hope no strikers have joined
and also that the work being done
on the land and other preparation
is universal in the clubs. So many
are busy we see no need for any
to be left behind.
The opportunity for joining will
be left open awhile longer. No

"swAMPED."

last week the columns Of The
Chronicle were thrown open for a
discussion OF the road bond CUES
ton. This week we were literally
swamped with contributions, all
favorable to the bond Issue. All
the articles many of them coming
in late-are highly meritorious,
bat inasmuch AS we can not posi-
bly handle all of them, we have
cllosena few having a more direct
bearing on the bond question, and
for this reason many of our regular
communications are nnavoidably
crowded out.
We can handle a few articles on
this subject next week -provided
they are brief and to the point and
add new thought on the subject.
Such contributions must reach us
not latter than next Monday.
Fhe position of The Chronicle,
which has pied for good roads for
over twenty years, is well under
stood. As to the best method and
most economical plan, practical
experience offers conclusive proof
that bonds meets every require
ment,. and we regret that efforts
are being made to" prejudice the
matter.
The farnsers~of Cur county need
good roads. The lack of them is
the one great hindrance to their
advancement and their prosperity.
They see new light. They are
beginning to understand their need
in this respect. They pay the bulk
Of the taxes. If they want good
roads we want them to have them.
It is neither just nor right that
they should be thwarted in getting
what they want and what they so
Justly need.
This is most important prob
lem for the tax payer to solve. 1t
ia better to discuss it calmly and
from a rational standpoint.
If you ere for the bond issue,
YOU have right to be, and it is
your privilege to give your rea-
sous based on fact. If you oppose
a bond issue, it is your right to do
80 and your privilege to give your
reasons based on fact.
Personally, we favor the bond
issue. Observation offers conclu-
sive proof that it's the quickest and
the most economical method yet
devised to- build good roads-or
anything else, as to-that noetter.
Some ont 10 the mass meeting

ausrjrnter to help you in making
