GOV. DuNNE FAvoRs CAUSE

c. G. Miller, delegate from the
Cairo Automobile Club to the Good
Roads convention held last week at
Springfield. has returned. Mr..
Miller reports that the gathering
was tho largest and most important
ever convened in the interest of
good roads there being about SOC
active delegates in attendance.
A rough draft of the new road
bill known as the Tice bill was in
troduced for discussion and was ap.
proved generally The bill provides
that the state should pay for at least
50 per, cent of the cost of road and
highway construction. Counties OF
the FIRST class, which includes Alex
ander and counties Of lesser popula-
ton, are entitled to Is per cent on
the tntal road mileage; counties OF
the second class 20 per cent, and
the third class 25 per cent.
The county is made the unit in
state and roads, the county fund
for the so per cent Of the road con-
struction to be either appropriated
out Of the county treasury or BY
financing a bend Issue. A eount ]
superintendent is to be appointed BY
the county commissioners subject &c
4 civil service examination and ap-
proyal by the State Highway Com
mission at Springfield. There is tc
be local district road commissioner
for each road district instead Of
three as. at present.
For township or county roaili
lstriotly. the road district is tC
| finance by road TAX not to exceed
go cents on the dollar valuation ant
lenti:led to county aid to the extent
| of Is per cent Of the road cost
Under he foregoing provisions 1t z
reasonably certain that all road con
lstruction win be along modern ideas
and much waste OF expenditures vii
be avoided. 1t is also believed tha
after the citizens of Illinois have hat
an opportunity for the next year Of
Il 4 4
two to appreciate the effects of mod
ern road building it will be possible
Ito pass more sweeping and compre
thensive road legislation.
The Tice bill should reach the leg
lislature sometime not later than thi
month and with probably a few
changes and should pass the legisla
ture and senate within the next twi
or three months. 1t is scheduled /,
become effective July list.

lcago press that the Good, Roads bill
is one of the bills that must b
lpassed by the general assembly

0usting Of Clements
To Square Political
Debt Raises Storm

The plan to Dust Judge Judson
Clements, of Georgia, from the In
terstate Commerce Commission, to
make way for a patronage candi-
date" is causing a storm Of criticism
among the judges Georgia friends,
and echoes Of the storm are being
heard in Washington.
The fact that Judge Prouty, the
oldest member of the Commission in
point of service, is to retire, makes
it appear that the services Of Judge
Clements, the next oldest member,
are particularly needed at this time.
The Washington Times has this to
say:
THE public has some rights in this
matter that can not safely be ig
nored The use of patronage power
to pay personal or political debts at
the expense of a most important
branch of the public service will be
neither forgotten nor forgiven"
