AN OPEN LETTER.

Hot Springs, Ark, Marcn l2, 1914 We, the undersigned, ministers Of the gospel i1 Hot springs, made determined fight for several months against the issuing of licenses to sa. looms and legalizing the sale of li- quor in this city. We expect that as soon as the circuit court can hear the case all license granted by the county court will be revoked. When this happens the necessity for the strict enofrcement of the law to pre- vent the illegal sale of liquor will be Of much .imnartance to Us. While the saloons were closed in January title or no effort was made to sup press the illegal sale of liquor and as a result lawlessness ran rampant in the city. The ministers in the city of Hot Springs believe the necessity for law enforcement one of the most important questions now before the people. One of our greatest needs is for men in office who will see that the laws are enforced without fear or favor. Great care should be taken by the voters of this county in the electio nto see that none but men pledged to the enforcement of law are nominated for office.

Clarence Shercliffe and w. A. Cur tls' the two insane asylum attendants who liberated Herbert Coons. alias The Brass Kid" who had been con Yicted in this county for swindle. have been indicted by the grand jury of Pulaski county for unawfully aiding Brass to make his escape.
 The interesting feature of the es- cape at the time was contained in the confession made by two young at tendants when they revealed that they had served "The Brass Kid' on a credit basis, or that they received nothing at the time, but were to nave sent to them sum of money they were to receive ill the general de- livery.
 The slip ill the escape was that the key of one of the attendants had been given Brass" and he was to have left it outside the door. In some manner this plan miscarried, and when the attendant was questioned just after the escape was discovered, he told conflicting stories as to tho whereabouts of his key. The officers of the institution had found it in the door-lock
 Brass made his getaway com plete Not a trace was ever found of him after he was last seen in the asy- lum. Whether he hurried across the state border, or whether he found a place of concealment and remained there until the search had waned, was left only to conjecture,
 An interesting phase of the situa- tion is that the same circumstances apply in the Brass case as in the Harry Thaw case, in the event he is ever captured. He had been sen fenced to five-year term in the state penitentiary for grand larceny, and sent to a convict farm. ater his san ity was questioned, and he was pro- nounced insane by board, one mem- Der of which was Dr. Greene, of the State Hospital for Nervous Diseases, and one of the most famed experts in the south. Brass" was placed in the insane asylum, where later he pur chased his release from attendants on a credit basis. After having been thus adjudged insane, if he is cap tured the question will be raised as to whether he can be brought back to Arkansas under a requisition.

DEVELOPMENT OF
 COUNTRY ROADS
THE COUNTRY IS SHOWN IN OFFICIAL BOOK
 LET OF ASSOCIATION.
Counties Bonding Themselves for Road Improvement Have Shown Surprising Gains Over the Nation.

Enormous development of the finan- cial side of the road movement shown in the fact that 1,230 counties in the United States now have outstanding highway bonds aggregating quar- ter of a billion dollars, according to the Official Good Roads Year Book for 1914, which is to be issued by the Highway Association in Washington this month.
 The fact that the counties men, tiCned nave bonded themselves to the extent of quarter of a billion dol lars il order to improve and main tain their roads is only one of the surprising developments of the road movement. as shown by the latest Year Book A stupendous new busi- ness is shown to have grown up in the United States as a result of the road boom, business employing more than 1000 persons in actual su- pervision of the roads, in addition to the increase in banking business, due to handling bonds, increases in the road machinery and materials, and
The Sentinel=record., 1914-03-15

the other byproducts of the boom. Not merely has there been a tremen- dous saving in the wear and tear on horses and in the prevention of waste on the farm, due to the inability to get to the shipping points over poor roads, but there has been an actual increase in prosperity as a result Of the need for work and materials on the construction of new roads and the improvement of old ones
 Progress reports from every state highway department comprise a chap ter in the new Year Book, which shows that only eight states have fail. ed to establish highway departments, while in several of the states, notab- ly New York, Illinois, iowa and New Mexico, the tendency towards central ization has progressed so far that practically all the work of road im- proveme1t is being done under state supervision. The Year Book, which is complete inventory of raod statis- tics and other necessary data, sets forth that approximately 10000 miles of roads have been costrlcted under state supervision in the past year.
 Highway officials in the various states have already applied for the latest edition of the Year Book, which gives a digest of state road laws shows the use of convicts on the pub lie roads; bond issues; mileage, appro. priations, directories of officials, man ufacturers and contractors; descrip- ton of foreign road systems; highway engineering in colleges; construction of bridges and culverts, and reviews of all the addresses and technical ar tices which apepared in 1913.

scheme for a bond issue you fail TO
60 to the polls. He and his CO
members can get enough votes out to
carry it. When you get your tax
statements you yell about it but new
er stop to consider that you are to
blame.
Then there is the city council. 1t
is also spending lot of money. Could
you off-hand name the members OF
your council? Check them up and
then check off the names of those
you would not care to trust with your
personal funds. Still you put them in
to spend the public money, which be-
longs as much to you as to anyone
else. Your county commissioners are
spending a lot of money each year.
Did you take the trouble to pick out
good man and vote for him last
election? I'll bet you did not.
The average professional politician,
of the type that is filling 80 or IS
per cent of our public Offices, is not
the man that you would trust to run
your business. Not because he is dis
honest but because he is either lazy
or slovenly or because he is vision
ary.
A loud mouthed imbecile can get
into public office if he blows loud
enough. After the few who do vote
see his name on the ballot four or
five times they begin to think he is
a big man and vote for him. He
levies the tax and spends the money.
The business man and the profess
sional man sit back and declare that
this is a great little country. "Yes,
sir. It's free country and run BY
the people" But they are talking
theories, not facts. This country il
far from being run by the people.
1t is run by self-appointed leaders.
Offices do not seek the man the man
has to run after the Office and if he
runs long enough and yells hard
enough he can have it.
The tax experts and university pro-
fessors can get together for years and
talk over taxes; they can advance all
kinds of theories; newspapers can
discuss very seriously the reasons and
the necessity for high taxes in a new
state; but until the people Of this
country begin to sit up and take no
tice. discover who is in public Office
and how he got there, the taxes are
going to be high and the government
is going to be run on q basis that
would bankrupt John D. Rockefeller

bear the consequential high taxes, and
should do so more gracefully.-Nat U.
