SOME OF THE NEW ROAD
BILLS INTRODUCED IN
THE STATE LEGISLATURE

Editor Times: AS many of our
citizens will not see the list of bills
introduced in the State Legislature,
| would like to have space in your
paper to make brief statement In
regard to some OF the road bills that
are being introduced.
One calls for State Highway
Commissioner, appointed by the
Governor, ut salary of $4,000 a
year, with an assistant at r salary
OF 81 900 a year, then ruffles and frills
Sl7 900 more, or IA total OF 81, 600 a
year to come out of the State road
fund. The business of the State
Highway Commissioner is to advise
and approve of all permanent road
improve OF the State.
The next bills covers this i'm
provement, and as this is the one
that | want to call attention to in
particular, ] will give the substance
OF the same, as printed in the Daily
Republic:
1.-THE plan for permanent improve
ment of roads throughout the State
gives county courts and the City
Council ~ St. Louis the right to di-
rect such Improvement with certain
restrictions. The court or council
may order and approve plans and
specifications. They are next sent
to the State Highway Commissioner.
II he approves the plans Of improve
ment, bids nay be advertised for
and the court, in conjunction with
the Commissioner, shall accept the
best bid. Half the cost of improve
ment shall be paid from the State
fund, provided, however, such cost
Is not in excess Of the yearly appor-
tionment for the particular county.
The other half shall be borne by the
owners OF abutting or adjacent prop
erty. The courts are authorized to
contract for macadamiZed, telford
or gravel roads"
In st. Francois county we have
had some experience with the cost
of macadamized roads, and while we
approve Of them rs they are built by
the county and to the general well
fare of all the people, cannot see
where there would be any justice in
this proposed law that would make
the abutting land owners pay half
the cost of new roads and the State
the other half, must think some of

RESOLUTIONS OF RESPECT

The following resolutions were
adopted unanimously by the Mis-
souri, House of Representatives:
Whereas Hon. William II. Young,
who represented St Francois cOun.
ty in this body in the Thirty. eighth
General Assembly, has departed this
life since the adjournment of the
Forty-sixth General Assembly; and
Whereas, the said William fl.
Young, while member of this
House, exerted himself faithfully in
behalf of his constituents and of the
people of the whole State, and dis
charged every duty incumbent upon
him with fidelity, ability and un-
swerving honesty, therefore be it
Resolved, That we, as members OF
the House, extend to his family our
heartfelt regret and profound SYM
pathy In their loss, and express our
hope that the memory of his faith
full labors In this body will be an in
SEPARATION to us to work and incite
us to like honorable endeavor in be-
half OF good government, and
Resolved, That a copy of this
resolution be sent by the Chief
Clerk of this House to his widow,
at Pennington, Mo.

MS little farmers have pretty long
pocketbooks when we can buck up
against the whole State OF Missouri!
Take for instance our present rock
road that extends through the coun-
~, built at a cost of more than
s20O,0OO; ii the adjoining land hold
ers would have had to put up half
the cost, several of them would not
be owning land today. The same
would be true on the St. Mary's,
Jackson or any Of the macadamized
roads.
Then again, ] am opposed to plac-
ing so much power in the hands Of
one man, when that man is appoint
ed to Office and does not have to
look to the people for his support.
And would this commissioner have
the interest In our county that men
would who are citizens and have
their home? Our county court would
be practically tied, as all plans and
specifications would have to be sent
to the State Commissioner for his
approval; then he must pass on and
approve Of the bids before the con-
tracts could be let.
II the State has any road money
to appropriate to the counties, we
will gladly accept our share, and !
for one would be in favor OF spend
Ing 1t on the various State roads in
the county-not put it all on any
special road.

in the United States, or at least the
oldest man in the State of Missouri.
Henry Dorman, born in Steuben
County, New York, whose well-au-
thenticated age is ia years, has liy-
ed during three centuries.
He was born January 10, 1889,
near a year previous to the death of
George Washington.
DOrman lived in the East until the
outbreak OF the Mexican War, and
though a man OF middle age, he en-
listed as IA private.
He served with Gen. Taylor
throughout the whole of the cam
paign, aud was with Gen. Scott
when the victorious army marched
into Mexico City.
He stayed in Mexico for few
months after the war, and then re.
turned to his home in New York
Here he stayed for several months
when he went to Ohio.
When the first mutterings Of war
occurred in 1861, Dorman was one Of
the first men to enlist. Though past
the military age, which is limited at
go years. he enlisted under false
affidavit as to his age and served as
IA private.
He went through the war, and
even his advanced years did not him
der him.
After the war he moved to Mis-
souri,, in which State he has spent
more than half century. He has
lived over thirty years in the vicin-

tinue his residence there until his
death.

boys in better and more
scientific methods of farming than
their fathers know and follow, has
come another innovation in the
person of the County Farm Ad-
wiser. 1t is being adopted in
many places and agricultural col
lege teachers are recommending it..
The adviser is supposed to know
all about agriculture, the care of
stock and the most approved means
of getting the best results in all
kinds of farming. His province is
to study the needs of the farmers,
their lands, their stock, etc., and
advice them what is the proper
thing in any number of given con-
ditions.
OF course the adviser is paid a
salary, and we are told that the
State stands ready to bear one
fourth of the expense of County
Adviser, that the national govern.
ment will aid in a limited number
of counties, and the county court
may grant aid. But there are 9TH
er expenses beside the adviser s
salary, such as procuring serum in
case of hog cholera epidemic, fertil-
ity plots for experiments, fertile.
ers, etc. Farmers are advised to
organize and through this organi-
cation raise money by assessment

State Treasurer Deal has pre-
pared bill to amend the State de-
pository law so that the money of
the State may be let to banks IN
smaller sums than under the pres.
ent law. 1t is thought that this
will benefit the country banks and
give them an opportunity to bid
for deposits of State money. Mr..
Deals idea is that if the allotment
be made smaller, country banks
would bid a higher rate for the
money. In the present allotments
the amount Of bonds required to
secure the deposits is so large that
it is beyond the reach of many
country banks to handle.
