Straw Roads.

If all of our readers could take a
trip from here to Bertrand over the
strawed road, and then drive a few
miles in an auto over the same kind
of roads without straw they would
all want strawed roads, We know
because we tried 1t. The road to
Bertrand IL almost all covered, and
it converts IL heavy, slow road into
fast, smooth one. You really can I
imagine the difference unless you
try an unstrawed sand road along
with 1t. Tomorrow and next day
will add many miles of straw roads
to our county, and there is no way
In which sand road can bettered
for SO little money than by good
coating OF straw. Some places
where the straw was so thinly put
on ought to be given another coat
but this is all the criticism we have
to offer.
Every mile of sand road In Mis-
isssippi county ought to be straweC
every year for several years at least
After several years there is fibre
enough in the road to prevent 1t get
ting very heavy, but strawing every
year is cheap method of makinI

A gentleman who lives at Aden says
he pays so month for water,
which is delivered at his door in

the numerous shops in Alden sell
nothing but condensed and bottled
water, and the price in quantity is

If our memory erves US correctly
we believe that President Wilson not
so many moons ago was conniving
some means of placing Mr.. Bryan
forever IN a cooked hat. He missed
the mark and placed him in the
White House. In this one instance
we find a return of the old adage,
TO err is human, to forgive is d.
vine" Today we find these two
distinguished men working shoulder
to shoulder for a betterment of con-
ditions now existing. Time can
only tell whether or not they sue
coed. The people have by their
votes placed in control a thoroughly
democratic administration and if
there is a chance for improving on
what we have at present now is the
time for the followers of Thomas
Jefferson to get busy. The past re-
cord of the democratic party has
been such as to cause considerable
inte in the outcome of the Will
sonian regime.
