The editor CT the Constitution, il
making comment upon the meeting
has the following good words to say
Of State Highway Commissioner OF
Oklahoma, Sidney Sugs;
"CCl. Sidney Suggs, the state high
way commissioner of Oklahoma
made most excellent speech on good
roads in general He briefly referred
to the work he had done in this state
and the efforts made to create a
strong and persistent sentiment in
favor of good roads. He considered
good roads essential to the redemp-
tion of the country; that it would
solve the problem of crowded cities;
aid in the back-to-the-sOil movement;
il would enable the people in the ru-
raj districts to educate their children
at home; it would bring about a re-
form for the Improvement OF the So
cial conditions in the country and
city. He advocated the use of the
500 trusty conyicts on the roads, and
of national aid for the constructing of
main thOroughfares in the states to
which the counties would build later
ais The colonel made a strong pre-.
sentation for the cause of good roads.

FACTIONS FIGHT.

Washington, D. c., Dec. lit de
veloped today that Col. Goethals
wants to run the Panama canal for
the first six months of its operation.
That he may be enabled to do so, he
would appreciate appointment as head
Of the permanent government
This is what lies behind the demo
cratic factional fight for dominance
in apportioning patronage on the 18TH

Politicians believe that with Goe-
thals at the head, the minimum jobs
would be created. Goethals, however
may be sent to Alaska to superintend
the building of a railroad that, it is
expected, will be authorized by con-
gress soon.

MERIDIAN ROAD
ASSOCIATION
MEN OF EXPERIENCE SAY FIRST
MONEY SHOULD EMPLOY AN
ENGINEER.

When the Meridian Road Associa
ticn was in session recently in Law
ton there were in attendance several
persons interested in roads from Tex,
as and Kansas, as well as many cit
liens from Oklahoma. The Wichita,
Texas, people were there with a band,
a half dozen counties in Kansas had
delegates there and some were there
from as far south as San Antonio.
Towns and cities work just as hard to
be located on one of the interstate
highways as they do to be located on
another line of railroad and the good
wagon and auto road in many in
stances are worth much more than
another line of railway to a city.
Some of the delegates from Kan
sas who addressed the association
were w. S.Gearhart, state highway
engineer of that state; c, A. Gamble
OF Wellington, and J. NJ. Thralls of
sumner county. Each of these gen
tlemen urged that before any attempt
was made to do road building that
an engineer first be employed. The fig
ures were brought out that it costs
but about Sc a mile for engineers
fees in the building of road; the cosr
is nothing compared with the cost Of
the construction and road building is |
becoming to be a science as other
