Road Building Suggestions.

average life Of horses aud automobiles
may be increased and the cost Of haul
ing reduced, according to the Office Of
Roads Of the Department Of ofAgriculture,
by relocating many old roads and the
more scientific laying out Of rev ones
The natural tendency in road building
is to build a straight road, whether it
goes over steep grades or hills, or not,
and pulling ever these grades naturally
adds to the wear and tear on horses
and vehicles.
The doctrine OF the Office Of Roads
is that the longest way around may
often be shortest and most economical
way home, and that frequently by build
ing highway around hill or grade,
but little appreciable distance is added
and this is more than Offset by the re.
duced strain Of hauling.
The chief drawback from the farm
owners point OF view is that the laying
out Of roads on this principle Of avoiding
grades necessitates, in some cases
running the road through good farm
land or orchards or pastures, instead o
going around the farm line and build

A Sort of Tired Feeling.

The Wilson administration, having
accepted the delusioI that to cripple
the sheep and sugar industries would
reduce the cost Of living" found it
self compelled TO resort at once to the
income tax TO make good the loss OF
revenue thus thrown away.
So we have, in time OF peace, with
no war even really threatened, in place
Of a simple levy at ports OF a tax so
minute in its incidence upon individ-
uqls that it is not felt at all save by
academic theorists, this complicated,
ipquisitorial and confusing income tax
law, with its un-American assumption
that success should be penalized.
The Wilson administration took Office
with great stock Of credit to its head
for sincerity and good intentions.
Those sentiments are still entertained
by all good citizens. Nevertheless
they are also beginning to have toward
it sort Of tired feeling" II that
feeling continues to grow, aid results
in democratic party disaster, it is evil
d nj that the income tax law will be
no small factor in its growth and in
that result. Chicago IntrrOcean.

Old Matt's View Of Il.

Now why get excited over that piece
Of road from the dam to town. Why,
it is just the thing 10 shake the liver
into action after a quiet boat ride and
then to make it otherwise would spoil
the antiquity Of the whole business;
and then to fix it might make walking

road or that stretch of three miles be
good "ad," If nothing else? Many
people will pass over il to Forsyth in

SUFFERING ADRIANOPLE.

If the latest kilograms from Sofia
to the Bulgarian delegates in London
are to be trusted the horrors of many
historical sieges are being repeated
today in the luckless city of Adrian
ople. Its inhabitants, old and young,
soldiers and civilians, are the scape-
goats of the war, says the Oregon
Journal
Hoping against hope the Turkish
Pasha in commands announces that he
prefers starvation to surrender. He
is repeating the Turkish traditions,
displayed at Plevna, Kars, and Ere
room in past wars, where the direst
suffering fell on the unarmed citizens.
Meanwhile the resolute Pasha ap-
portions the slender stores of food in
one-half ration a day to the besieged,
so postponing to the very last the evil
day for him and his soldiers, which is
yet the day of a coming deliverance
for the inhabitants.
What, then, is the plight of the
city? For many weeks there has been
no train on the one trunk railroad.
Roads are all blocked by which the
country people have been used to bring
food into the city. There have been
no letters or newspapers, and the teIe-
graph wires were cut weeks ago. All
trade has stopped-stocks of all neces-
saries have been seized by the Pasha's
command. The few doctors that re-
main are all in the hospital service.

people on the beach found it impossi-

Man after man was washed out of the

And so the story goes. Chapters
will be added as wind and wave claim

coast line is the Graveyard of the
