Proposed Road Work In Ohio.

Proposed Road Work In Ohio.
Over S 100000 will be spent during
the coming season in. Cuyahoga and
adjacent counties in the northern por-
ton Of Ohio. according to recent re-
ports.
New road work in Cuyahoga county
will be undertaken to the amount Of
o than 81 Zoo. 200, it Is stated. while
the cost of repair jobs will amount to
over $4,000. Lake county is to build
eighteen miles of concrete road on the
highway between Buffalo and Cleve-
land and eight miles of brick road be-
tween gainesville and Willoughby.
Lorain county is to expend about $12,-
900 for the construction Of something
less than a mile Of concrete roadway
and $4,000 for the repair of two miles
Of the La Grange-E lyria-Akron road.
Medina county will undertake the con-
struction Of thirty miles of concrete
and water bound macadam pixies with
state aid. Geauga county will CON-
mence the work Of grading twenty
miles of the Cleveland Youngstown
road at a cost of $4,000. The present
plan is to pave the road with brick
next year.

IMPROVING MICHIGAN ROADS,

Farmsrs Now Appreciate the Value to
Them Of Better Highways.
1t u . strange fact that the state Of
Michigan. In which more than Is per
cent Of the worlds automobiles are
manufactured. has some Of the poorest
roads In the whole country. The fact
that q large portion Of the state Is low
lying and that another large portion Of
it IL sandy accounts for this to q large
extent.
The country In which Michigan's me-
tropolis. Detroit. is situated had until
recently VIGOROUSLY bad roads. This
was due to the swampy nature of the
section, which, biologists tell US. was
formerly the bed Of a great inland YEA.
Time after time appeals were made
to the automobile manufacturers to aid
in the good roads movements in vari-
GUS sections. but most of them have
been ignored for two r~easons-6rst, a
natural Discrimination to pay out their
own money for the general good even
SAVu6u ~ was SOANCuCU IlA0S LILO 0uSO~
mobile profits very largely by good
roads, and, second, because the auto
mobile manufacturers maintained that
their support for good roads really
served to prejudice the farmers-who
are, in fact. the greatest bene6ciaries-
against the movement.
Your old time farmer was liable to
jump to the conclusion that IL it bene-
f1ts some one else 1t must necessarily
injure him. So in his early hatred of
the automobile he condemned any good
roads movement.
OF late the farmer has been the most
enthusiastic user of the automobile and
also Of the motor truck. Incidentally
he has found that a strip Of good road
from his farm to the city not only IN
abled him to transport his farm prod
c to the market at a great saving Of
time. but means great saving Of equip
ment-horses. wagons, harness, etc.
1t is difficult to realize now that the
farmer didn't appreciate the tremen-
dous expense he incurred by hauling
heavy roads cyer rutty, rocky. muddy
roads. He wore his horses out In half
their normal life. and his wagon and
harness equipment lasted vel less
than that length. of time: also he has
to use a much heavier equipment than
ia necessary on good roads, with the
consequent greater deterioration Of
hOrsehesh.
With the building of a few sections
of good roads around Detroit came an
appreciation of them on the part Of
farmers as well as motorists. and now
there Is IN insistent demand for more
Of them.

sake he hates me. He means to be re
venged o. me for Henry Aliens death.
And what the Master Mind plans he ac-
complishes. That's his record through
years of crime. Now he sends me a
white card to warn me that | I'M to
pay the penalty Of my offense against
him."
Wainwright picked up the square Of
cardboard and regarded it curiously.
1T doesn't e formidable" he went
on, turning it ove to show the blank
surfaces. 1T is to serve merely as a
reminder to me that the Master Mind
has not forgotten his purpose toward
me. There are other blank cards to
come, merely reminders. But by and
by, the Master Mind says here. there
will come q red card to warn me that
the appointed time is near at hand.
And then at last there will be a black
card to tell that the time IL come for
the Master Mind to strike me down.
No. l am not afraid now. R"t when
the black card comes"-

ooNvICTs ON Road WORK IN COLORADO.
to put the honor system into effect
with the convicts under his control,
but evidently has hope Of being able
to do SO with certain classes.
1t is worthy of note that the effect
Of road work is good on the mind Of
the public as we'll as on the morals of
the prisoner. The average citizen ia
"able to see for himself that very few
Of the convicts arc dangerous and that
many Of them. IL given a chance, will
make good citizens" 1t has also
."quickened the demand for better
roads,
Many prisoners are employed by c0n-
tractors or farmers at the expiration
of their term and thus kept away from
their old haunts and associates. In a
word, there is no question about the
moral. mental and physical benefits of
road work ON the convicts and Incl
dentally a better attitude toward them
on the part Of the public.
Absolutely correct analysis of the
economic side Of the movement Is i'm
possible from the data presented. Com
missioner Coleman states that 1t cost
last year 81 cents per ten hour day to
feed. guard and otherwise provide for
the convict labor on roads.
1t would cost something to provide
for these men in idleness, and the to-
tai should not be charged to the roads.
In Colorado experience shows a saving
Of about 25 per cent over free labor,
all things considered. Mr.. Atkinson of
Louisiana estimates the total cost of
prisoners on roads. including supervi-
sion. at II cents per day.
Mr.. Morgan Of Utah made no esti-
mates except a saving Of 1850 to ST.
OOJ a mile on roads built with convict
labor. Such experience given by men
in charge Of the prisoners and the roads
is worth a volume of theories about a
great problem. but it also sustains the
theory that convicts should build roads.

CHAPTER I.
Tho Master Mind.

"HERE was a sudden. tense 81
lence in the courtroom as the
judge on the bench lifted his
4 head and stared steadfastly at
the prisoner In the dock. All had eyes
only for the man who stood motion
less. awaiting under a mask OF pal
lid indifference the words Of doom
that must now be spoken. And as
they looked. thrilled by the awfulness

found you guilty Of murder in the first
degree. This is the capital offense
against the law. and for it the law
demands the capital punishment. The
defense has urged that your action in
Staying Il man within his W house
was justified by the unwritten law,
since the one thus done to death had
by the arts Of seduction alienated the
affections OF a wife. and therefore the
penalty exacted by the written law
should be abrOgated in behalf of one
who has thus punished the violation
Of the sanctity Of the home. Yet,
though the guilt Of the murdered man
in this regard has been fully estab-
lished. this plea as to the potence of
the unwritten law in such instance has
not prevailed. The jury has seen fit

not he difficult to offer objec-

Of a good roads day as a means
of constructing or improving
roads, but such an occasion can
be fully justified provided con-
siderable attention is given to
arousing more interest in the
roads and to an interchange Of
views on highway problems be-
tween the different classes Of
people who use the roads. The
experience in some such at
tempts has been that there was
a surprising readiness to COOP
crate in such public improve
ments. In not a few instances
city chambers Of commerce and
city automobile clubs have made
very substantial contributions
for the improvement Of the
earth roads leading to the cities
In which these organizations
had their headquarters.-Ira o.
