GIVEN LIFE SENTENCE

Lebanon, Mo-, Oct. l6.-Joseph
Prince was found guilty OF the muir
der Of Charles Jordan in the first
degree and sentenced to imprison.
ment at Jefferson City at hard la
Dor for life. Attorneys for the de-
PENDANT declare they will appealthe
case to the supreme court.
The crime for which Prince was
convicted grew out of a quarrel ov-
err hogs owned by Jordan, which
had broken into field owned by
Prince near Pease's Mill. He had
armed himself with a shotgun when
he went to the scene of the trouble.
In the trial he claimed that he shot
Jordan in self defense when he saw
him advancing towards him with
an open knife in his hand. The
charge from Princes shotgun en-
tered Jordan's left temple, killing
him instantly.
Arthur Prince, his father. and
Bud Prince. his brother, are held as
accessories to the crime and will be
tried at a later date. The former is
held on a bond of $500 and the
latter on a $500 bond. Jordan
was well respected in the county
having taught school for a number
of terms. He is survived by n wife
and four children.
Prince is a member of one of the
pioneer families of Laclede county
and was one Of thirteen children.

it may be said that the most practical,
labor-saving and efficient way to guard
against them is to secure an anti-ty-
typhoid vaccination before you leave

fore you intend to leave; three inocula-
tons, ten days between each, being re-

So shall their lives bring peace
and Joy to us; SO shall we be-
gin to be and to become wise.
What boys and girls play In
earliest childhood will become
by and by a beautiful reality Of
serious life, for they expand into
stronger and lovelier youthful
ness by seeking on every side
appropriate objects to verify the
thoughts Of their inmost souls.
This earliest age Is the most
important one for education, be-
cause the beginning decides the
manner OF progress and the end.
II national order Is to be recog-
nized In later years as a benefit,
childhood must first be accus-
toned to law and order and
therein find the means Of free
dom. Lawlessness and caprice
must rule In no period Of life,
not even In that Of the nursing.
The kindergarten is the free
republic Of childhood.
Man must be able to fail In or
der to be good and virtuious, and
he must be able to become .
slave In order to be truly free.
Ny teachers are the children
themselves, with all their purity,
their inn ocence, their uncon-
seriousness and their, irresistible
claims, and / follow them like
faithful. trustful scholar.
/ wish to cultivate men who
stand rooted in nature, with their
feet In Gods earth; whose heads
reach toward and look into the
heavens; whose hearts unite the
richly formed life OF earth and
nature with the purity and peace
of heaven-God's earth and Gods
heaven.-Froebel.

INTERNATIONAL TIMBER

H e j fl
This papers suggestion that
State Senator Davis, of American
Falls, is governor size" does not
seem to meet with the entire ap-
prevail Of the Caldwell Tribune.
That journals disapproval Of the
the suggestion takes the form Of
defense of Governor John M.
Haines, whom it believes is en-
titled to reelection. In addition
to raising a question, our Caldwell
friend disposes Of one by declar-
ing that it is too early to talk
gubernatorial timber. The word
thus going forth to all state news
papers to "cut out" politics until
the Caldwellian scribe says the
word, its up to all of us to lie
doggo.
The political dopester on the
Spokane Spokesman Review also
views with profound alarm the
suggestion that Senator Davis
may become a gubernatorial cam
didate. That scribe sees in such
. contingency grave danger to
United States Senator Brady's
chances Of return to the senate.
II raises the old question Of sec
tionalism, according to the Spo-
kane writer. who sees something
awful in the fact that Idaho now
has two United States senator's, a
congressman, a governor, and a
scattering Of other state offices
from the southern part Of the
state. The Panhandle is entitled
to the governorship if Senator
Brady is to hold his job. In other
words, north Idaho declares,
through the Spokesman Review
(recognized political dictator in
that part Of the state) that the
situation resolves itself into de-
mand for a governor or a United
States senator.
It is too bad that these things
cannot be adjusted. Sectionalism
is q disturbing thing. Senator
Brady has made good and il
seems disheartening that merely
because he happens to come from
south Of the Salmon river he is
deemed Ineligible by the people
Of the north.
There is this much satisfaction
however, North Idaho is never
in doubt as to the eligibility Of
candidates from the north. Po-
catello Tribune.

the maintenance e The old. The
money for the state highways is
appropriated by the state leglsIa-
ture, which in May, 1911, voted
sufficient funds for the two fiscal
years ending June /, 1913. This
means that a total of 100000
per year during the years Of 1911
1912 and l0l2-l9l3 is available for
highway use.
Ohio has $4,000 miles Of road,
Of this 25,OO0 is improved high
way, The percentage of lmprov-
ed highway the total highway, is
probably higher in Ohio than in
any other state. Of the improved
roads 10000 miles are macadam
and stone, l4,3O0 Of gravel, and
500 Of brick and concrete. There
are 6 1900 miles Of dirt road in
the state, most Of which are I'M
improved, but which are ~pasSabIe

spent in Ohio up to October |
during the year 1912 announced to
$l,l22,060
Missouri is another state which
spent a large amount of money
last year in the construction of
roads, about 100000 being
during 1912. There are 100000
miles of road in this state, of
which ALSO are improved; l0,250.
miles are dirt roads and are in
good condition at favorable per-
iods of the year. OF the improved
roads the larger part are gravel,

miles, while the stone roads make
up the remainder OF 1850 miles.
Wisconsin has approximately
65,O00 miles of highway. Accord
ing TO the United States Officer Of
Public Roads there are 10000.
miles of these highways that have
been improved, but the number is
closer to 10000. Most of the
roods are dirt, but considerable
york is being done along the line
of macad I'm. Along the Fox Riy-
err valley experimental concrete
roads have been constructed for
the first time in Wisconsin.
Not a few states are carrying
on experimental work with a view
of determining the best surface to
withstand wear of both climate
and traffic and at the same time
to be moderately cheap. The
state of Illinois, for example, built
81 miles Of experimental roads of
different types during the year
1912. Results from these are not
yet obtainabIe, but are expected
to be of great value in determin-
ing cost and advantages of roads
of different type.
"The vast stretches of roads
throughout this country are still
of the dirt or earth type. These
make excellent surfaces in good
weather, and after a stretch of
bad weather can be restored by
dragging. Where the percentage
of dirt road is greater compared
to improved roads and macadam,
asphalt, and other artificial sur
faces, it will be noticed that the
cost per mile of the road is ma
terlally less even where the drag
ging is thoroughly carried out
and the dirt road kept in the best
possible condition. The main
disadvantage of this road, is Of
course, its tendency TO rut when
ever traffic is frequent, In the
neighborhood of the larger cities
and towns throughout the coun-
try it is necessary that some such
hard artificial surface be used.
1T has always been stated that
American road construction was
devoted too much to the building
of roads and not enough TO
maintain, Literary Digest.
