Child Deserter's Excuse

o. P. Bell, now in Jail for de-
serting a baby at Whitman about
2 weeks ago writes to the Courier
and complains that the account
given of the case in this paper
does him injustice and further
offers a very plansable explana.
tion of his conduct. He admits
leaving the baby there and that
it is not his child. It appears
from the letter written to US on
the subject that except the
statement that they left in a
buggy after placing the baby
on Mrs. Millikens porch, our ac-
count was correct. He says he
and his wife walked from Whit
ham to Bosworth that night, and
also that the baby was but about
a month old.
We will refrain from further
comment until after the case is
settled. The letter is too long to
publish and in addition to that
objection to publishing it, there
are some reflections therein
which we do not care to repeat
in print at this time. They are
not on the Courier, however nor
on its Editors.

Practical Oil Roads

While at home last week the
junior editor Of the Courier made
an automobile tour Of the county
covering every town and hamlet
in Logan county, Illinois over
between 200 and $50 miles of
roads. While on the rounds he
found that the use of oil for bet
tering the roads is common in
practically every town in the
county. Not only was the oil used
in the towns but at many of
them the main roads for a mile
and as far as three or more miles
in some cases away from the
town limits were oiled. A man
with his eyes shut could easily
tell the moment his car wheels
struck the oil roads. They were
universally smooth and if there
were depressions and Jumps,
they were always gentle and
rounded and appeared rather
gentle swells in the ground than
the abrupt ruts and knots that
appear in the ordinary roads
Travelled elsewhere. Near one
town where there is a strip of
about four miles of the oiled
road, the automobiles, after a
hard rain, are taken out there
for a country spin and when the
rest of the road was soaked with
mud, this road was fully used
for automobiles.
No complaint was made OF
the cost and it seems that the
oil in these cases was just pour
ed on the road surface without
any preparation of the surface
whatever. With preparation Of
the road surface, the hardening
process probably would have
been more effective. In a place
where there are many miles Of
oiled roads the people have
nothing but words Of commenda
3tion for them.

cemetery Tuesday afternoon. 1t

Until last fall she did laundering

married name was Ewing. She
was a devout colored woman.

Hon. W. w. Rucker went to
Kansas City Tuesday to the
meeting of government engi-

provement of the Missouri river.
Congress made large appropri-
alton for putting the river in safe
condition for boats, and the en-
.gineer sent to inspect and make
recommendations, reported to
his department that there was
not business enough to justify
the expenditure. Engineers in
chief were induced to give those
interested in our big water way
a hearing and hence the meeting

Salisbury Fair

In the face of threatening
weather two days, Thursday and
Saturday morning of last week,
the promoters of the Salisbury
innovation are to be highly con-
graduated on one or the most
successful events of the kind in
the county since the cid Keytes-
vile fair went out of business.
The stock rings and displays in
every department surprised
every one who attended, es-
pecially that in the womans de-
partment. Had there been a
good half mile track on which to
show harness rings, the occasion
would have been practically COM
Iplete in every respect, for the
attendance exceeded expecta-
tions. In this particular, while
each one of the three days show
ed a big crowd, Saturday the
paid attendance was nearly two
thousand.
We would like very much to
give the names of winners of
premiums in this issue, but even
had they been available at this
time, we would not be able to do
so on account Of space. However,
| in a future issue about November
/, we expect to publish the list.
