HOW TO KEEP 6OOD ROADS

We should have men, living
along our roads, whose duty it
should be to drag the roads as
often as they need it, to fill up
and smooth over depressions .be-
fore they wear into holes and
ruts, and to look after and keep
up the roads generally. Divide
the roads into section of stated
lengths and let out the upkeep of
each section by contract. Have
a road Inspector for each county.
whose duty shall Ibe to give his
whole time to the inspection o.
the roads of the county and to
report any nonperformance of
duty that may occur. Require
that the the Inspector be thor
oughly qualified to fill his posi-
ton. Require both contractors
and inspectors to give bond for
the faithful performance of their
duty.
What is everybody's business
is nobody's, is az old true saying.
Make the upkeep of our roads
somebody's business and we will
have good roads at less than what
bad roads now cost us. We wont
have them until we do-Pro-

TWO VIEWS

81 tell you" said the pessimist
as he laid down his paper, this
world is going to the bad. Every
thing is getting worse all the
time. Living is getting higher;
land is wearing out; rivers and
streams filling up; floods getting
worse every year; wars getting
bloody; more people committing
suicide; more people getting
drowned and more burned up;
churches losing membership and
fewer young men with brains 60
ing into the ministry: people get
ting more selfish land crazier to
get the dollar, no matter how
just so they can get it; more
crime being committed and less
respect for law: young fellows
killing themselves smoking cigar
etts and drinking poison booze;
white slave traffic on the increase;
police force rotten in the big citi-
.es and Doodle everywhere; hard
to find an honest man anywhere:
everything going to hell on fast
trot.
ION the contrary remarked
the cheerful optimist, things are
not getting worse but better.
The floods are bad. but the num-
Der of lives lost isn't a quarter
of what was first reported and
neither will the damage to pro-
perry amount to more than a
quarter of the first estimate.
We have some bad fires, but
none of them that compare with
the fire that practically Destroy
ed London two or three centuries
ago when you compare the whole
property of the city then W h
the property now.
Then there was no way for the
rest of the world to help out ir
case of calamity of that kline
and the people burned out had t.
perish in many cases because
there was no food or shelter
There are no such pestilence nov
The Nevada County picayune. (Prescott, Ark.) 190?-current, 1913-04-11

as there were 300 or 200 or even
100 years ago, when it was not
uncommon for large sections OF
country to be practically depopu-
lated by pestilence and famine.
People live longer now than they
did then and have vastly more
privileges and opportunities.
More attention is being given to
the preservation of natural re-
sources than ever before. More
study of the soil is going on than
ever before and more intelligent
effort is being made to preserve
its fertility.
We think there is more crime
being committed because We hear
of more and read of more, but
there was as much crime in pro-
portion to the population a hun
dred years ago as now. The
morals of the country or of parts
of it shock our sensibilities, but
that is because the public atten-
ton is being called to them more
tbap avar hafora
But we have no such generally
low tone of morals as prevailed
from the highest to the lowest
classes of society in the time of
| Charles III in England. There is
corruption and boodljng in good
many places, but in the time of
the great Pitt nearly every mem
Der of the English parliament
was openly for sale and Pitt made
no bones of buying legislation
with money or office. which were
sold to the highest bidder.
We lack a lot of being perfect.
We also lack a great deal of be
ing as good and honest and virtu-
Gus and generous as We ought to
be, but the world, after all is bet
ter than it ever was before.
These are two views you can
take your choice. probably both
are partly right and partly wrong
but of the two the optimist, at
least gives US a more comfortable
feeling than the pesslmist. Mai

CHILDREN LEARN MUCH
OF FIRE PREVENTION

Today the children in the public
schools of Rock Island learned much
in regard to fires, their origin. and
how by simple precautions big disas-
tiers may be averted.
The Rock Island Riddles" learned
this, as did children in schools all
over the state, where fire prevention
day was observed as per a proclama-
ton of Governor Dunno.
In Rock Island the principals of
several of the schools took the mat
ter up at the assembly period, while
others set aside definite hour in the
day when the teachers explained to
the pupils.
That the children will bear in mind
what was told them is predicted by
school authorities and although not a
great amount of time was given to the
matter, good results will very likely
be forthcoming.

OTTO HERKFRT,

Otto Herkert, former police officer
Of this city, whose illness last spring
forced him to depart for Colorado
Springs in an effort to regain his
health, is dead.
The death of the well known police
man occurred in Colorado Springs
Tuesday morning. Announcement of
the demise of Mr.. Herkert comes as a
great shock to Rock Island people as
he was known to scores OF people here
and well liked by all.
When he retired from the police
force last spring he remained here for
awhile and then went west. At first
reports were to the effect that the Ill
friends were jubilant. Later a change
for the worse occurred, and since that
time his health gradually failed until
death relieved his suffering.
