COST oF ROAD BONDS.

Editor Capital Journals The law al.
lows county to issue bonds for road
building not to exceed two (2) per
cent Of the assessed valuation of all
the property in the county. The as
sessment Of Marion county is a little
over $42,O0O,OOO. The petitions being
circulated call for $S500OO in bonds so
they have gone to the limit. The peti.
tion calls for twenty year bonds at five
(5) per cent interest. The county will
issue the bonds whenever they want the
money to do the building but whenever
they issue bonds they are for twenty
years, The court may be several years
in doing the work so it may be several
years before the bonds are all issued,
After any set Of the bonds have been
issued and four years passes then the
court lcvies tax yearly for a. redemp'
tion fund, the yearly levy must be suf-

Editor Journal In the early days of
the middle-west there was great Min
nesota emigration. An immigrant family
stopped at wayside travern for the
night when within days journey of
his destination. He expressed himself
as being very desirous of knowing
what kind of a neighborhood he was
going to find in his new home, saying
he left his former home because of the
meanness and guarrelsomeness of his
neighbors, and the difficulty he was
continually having with them.
His host told him that he was well
acquainted with the neighborhood to
which he was going and that he would
find just such neighbors there as he
had left behind.
In the mean time another immigrant
family had arrived and applied for ac-
comodation for the night, who was
bound for the same neighborhood as
the former family. He told the land
lord that he was going to the new
neighborhood for the purpose of get
ting more land than he could get at
his old home; that he regretted very
much to leave his old neighborhood as
they were all kind and accommodating
and that he had lived among them for
many years and never had word of
difficulty with one of them, and he
wondered what kind of neighborhood
he should find in his new home. "I
am well acquainted with the neighbor-
hood to which you are going" replied
his host, "and assure you that you
will find just such a neighborhood as
you left behind you.

on January 10, as a result of his de-
cision last night over Charley White

White was on hand with the punch,
but he wasn't able to use 1t often
enough. He divided honors with
shugrue In the first and second rounds
after which the Jersey City fighter
rained blows on his opponent for a
lead Of FIVE rounds. White took the
eighth ana tenth and was on his toes
and strong at the finish.
At close fighting the Chicago lad
showed at his best, landing pile-driv-
ing rights and lefts to the stomach
and face which, however. the hardy
Jerseyman seemed able to absorb, al
though they would have been some
shock for any other lightweight.
Neither fighter showed great damage,
outside OF few puffs and cut or
two at the close OF the mill.

literary manager gets the following
on his mind:
Jess Willard to fight Jack John
SON. It sounds like joke after Gun
boat Smith outpointing him in twenty
rounds and Bearcat Mcmahon whip
ping him at Youngstown, Ohio. a
short time ago. Battling Leyinsky has
been trying to get Willard into ring
with him for the past year, but up to
date Big Jess refuses to box the bat
tier. Levinsky has whipped every
heavyweight including Gunboat Smith
and Bearcat Mcmahon, and stands
ready to box Jess Willard under any
conditions. Levinsky thinks Willard
is like a wooden Indian that cannot
box and Is so slow that he is In his
own way. Now. If the promoters OF
Jess willard will sign up for Le-
whisky, the public will not be bothered
with any more press stun regarding
Willard to box Johnson. since Lee
whisky will whip him without any
trouble and convince the sporting
world that Big Jess is huge joke.
Help! OF course. Morgan is very
much peeved because he has been
ignored frequently by the white hope
managers but it is an open question
whether Levinsky has the punch. II
he does manage to get powerful wal
Iop developed It is to be hoped that he
win get the whole crew into one ring
at one time and put them away fol
