The sincerity Of a mans promises

be measured by the record Of hts past.
His past record as an able lawyer, a
fair jurist, an honest servant Of the

IS the one cnyiable asset Of Samuel
W, Hayes in his candidacy for United

Members of the 1900" Block asso-

will take dinner tomorrow evening at
$50 at the Rock Island house with
the city commissioners as their guests
The meeting will be devoted to fur
thering matters of civic interest con-
corning the 1900 block.
One week ago several ideas were adj
vanced for the betterment of the
block. Tomorrow night several of
these, it is expected, will have mater
ialized and be ready for presentation
One move at the last meeting was to
paint the block white. Considerable
progress has been made in that direc-
ton already.
The ideas of the city commissioners
will probably be heard in the matter
of building up the block. Business men
are especially anxious that they have
something definite to say about the in
stallation of waiting station for inter
urban passengers in Market square.

along these roads has increased il
value in three years from $3.50 an
acre to more than $500, and it is. a
much better investment at the pres
ent price than formerly. Pittsburg is
building a S20,000,000 system of roads
in Allegheny county, Pa. Los An
geles county, Cal, has spent 100000
on system of roads, and the cost of
transportation of this system is less
than cents per ton miles, while the
average cost of the dirt roads of the
great black dirt is estimated at %
cents per ton mile. This freight eX-
pense or transportation charge is in
evitably distributed among the people
who consume the products of the soil,
and that means everyone of us, so
that any great saving in cost must
necessarily benefit all.
Worth the Cost.
True. some will argue that the in
vestment and maintenance charges
resulting from a high class system of
roads will make the entire cost ap-
proximately the same as at present.
While in no way admitting the truth
of any such claim, | should like to ask
if it would not be a much more desir-
able condition. Even if true at least
we would have the satisfaction of
knowing that some one was getting
the money while at present this add
ed cost is buried deep in the mud,
from which it can never be rescued.
and is a total loss to society. At first
glance a million dollars seems to us
a most tremendous sum, and we are
inclined to think that it should be
sufficient to accomplish everything
desired
He said that the people were per-
fectly willing to pay for roads if they
could feel assured they would get val
ue received from their taxes. but that
they were very suspicious, and with
good reason. of the tinhorn reformers
who had so many schemes for good
roads without money or price.
Valuable as Luxury.
He also discussed the relation of
roads of the social life of the resi- |
dents of the rural districts, and de- !
clared that the people of Rock Island |
county afford good roads as a luxury 1
and still feel that they were getting a /
good value outside of their industrial |
value which would make them good |
investment. The consolidated school |
problem. the keeping of the boy and /
girl on the farm, both during school |
days and afterward, and the relief /
from the loneliness of farm life. can
be solved only by the building of 2S5-
roads.
