Friends Of Judge Lindsey of
Denver will be highly pleased to
learn that the Tax Payers League
which appointed a committee to.
investigate the charges against
the Judge have brought in a re-.
port completely vindicating him.
A good work undoubtedly has
been accomplished in the juven-
lie courts Of Denver and the in
fluence Of the work started by
Lindsey has reached most Of the
large cities Of the country. Since
the judge published his famous
book based on the doings of
venal political characters in Colo
RADIO, he has been the object Of
intermittent attacks from sources
in some instances that did not ap-
pear on the surface. Through all
of these secret and open attacks
the Judge has been able to clear
ly demonstrate to the public that
his work as Judge Of the Juvenile
Court has not only been in accord
ance with the law, but has been
Of vast benefit to society as a
whole. The sociological work
that he has and is. performing
has been the means of interesting
a large number of other cities in
adopting the policy Of Judge
Lindsey in dealing with Juvenile
wrong-doers. Record.

the large sums of money which il
now being applied and will in the
future be used in even large amount:
tor road building, it will be both
wise and economical to have the
roads of the counties laid out with
system; to have them made of proper
materials and scientifically con-
structed. There is no avenue for
greater waste of public funds than
in road building. when the work is
carried on in a slip-shod fashion.
without proper skill. comprehen-
siye system and suitable material.
81 believe that the county should
be the unit for road building; but
while the first object should be to
serve the people Of the county which
defrays the expense, each county
should be neighborly and cooperate
with the adjoining counties in max
ing proper and suitable connections
for highways.

cheney in road construction in the
various counties of the State, to as
certain the most advisable methods,
the best materials to be used, and in
general way to have the road
building of the counties placed upon
the most economical and business
like basis. believe it advisable to
have created State road commits
sion, to be composed of three men,
bers. who shall be allowed their ey-
penses when engaged in the public
business, but who shall serve with
out salary.
The commission should be grant
ed ample authority to conduct all
inquiries, to make all necessary in
vestigations. and take all necessary
action for the advancement Of pub
lie road improvements in the State.
The commission should be author
lied to employ a highway engineer.
at salary of not exceeding $4,000
per annum, who should be required
to investigate and report upon the
methods Of road construction best
adapted to the various sections of the
State. and define standards for the
and maintenance OF
highways in the various counties II
the State. suggest routes for State
highways, and perform such other
tirties incident to and properly con-

NAuGHT BUT HARMONY
 AMONG MAGNATES
Governor Tener's Election As National League President Assured-Bia Trades Anticipated.

New York, Dec. 7.-S0 much has been done in advance by way Of smoothing the pathway of the Nation al league magnateS that on the eve of their assembling here for their an nual meeting every expectation pre- vails that harmony will dwell with them during their sessions. The ques- ton of the presidency has annually been something of a. stumbling block for the leaders of the organization, but this year everything seems to have been settled beforehand with the agreement that John K. Tener, gov ernor of Pennsylvania, shall be elected president, succeeding Thomas J. Lynch.
 Demands of Players.
 With the presidency question dis posed of, the magnates have several subjects of interest demanding their attention when they meet Tuesday aT- ternoon. oFr one thing, there is like ly to be 8 careful consideration Of the demands of the players fraternity for important changes in the players con- tracts in rules of the draft and in connection with various other phases of the relations of ball players and club owners.
 Important Deals Expected.
 Baseball circles are looking forward to the meeting as one likely to be pro- 6ucttve of important deals for play CTS The field of Joe Tinl1er's activ- ity for next season may be one of the questions decided. Philadelphia and Pittsburgh both want the erstwhile Cincinnati manager and President Au gust Hermann is not unlikely to get an offer from one or the other of these clubs that he will find it hard to re- fuse. A trade or two affecting the New York club is also looked for,
 The National league board of diFec- tors will meet at noon Tuesday short Ix- nf itself A gathering of considerable inn portance will open the baseball week the meeting of the International league. There will be no election of officers by this big minor organization, as Edward Barrow is now serving only the second year of a five year term as president, secretary and treasurer.
