A Good or Bad Roads Dispute

Editor Kennebec. Journal:
You published in your issue of July
81 a communication signed by j, L.
Dean. second selectman of Winslow
which is chiefly devoted to a state
ment of why they cannot get their
roads in passable condition. and
abuse Of the writer for an item ap-
pearing in the paper of July IL. The
only part of the item to which, I pre-
sumo. he took exception was as fol-
lows: Automobiles who have occa-
sion to travel between Waterville and
Augusta are being warned by the local
garage men to keep away from the
east side Of the river as it appears
as though the Nassalboro road COM
missioners are holding a contest to
see which can get this road in the
worst condition. Immediately follow
ing and during the rains of last week
the roads were in practically impas-
sable condition"
Mr.. Dean devotes considerable of
your space to saying that the road
in question is clay road and there
fore can only be repaired with road
machine. He says, ut is up to your
correspondent to tell us how to main
tain clay road at a reasonable ex-
pense or shut up
Now, road experts. men who make
study of road conditions and have
been responsible for the splendid
roads that are found in other states.
have been telling the people for sew
eral years that the proper use Of the
road drag is what is necessary to give
good roads on a clay soil. They have
protested against the use of the road
machine and the hauling of all the
slime of the gutter and the sods which
accumulate there into the middle Of
the road. and even got the Maine
Legislature to pass law prohibiting
it. and have demonstrated that clay
road can be maintained at reasonable
cost in first class condition under
traffic 10 times as heavy as the Wins
low road ever had.
The statement that appeared in the
paper was not the opinion of the
writer Newspaper men as rule,
do not express their personal opinions
in the news columns. but was a state
ment of things as they were told him
at the time. The part relating to the
contest as to who should get his road
in the worst condition being an exact
quotation Of justice Of the supreme
court of Maine, made to the writer on
Saturday afternoon. July 10. The
justice added also that the town off,
Gals ought to be indited for having
their roads in such condition. 1t might
interest Mr.. Dean also to know that
number of the citizens of Winslow
have stated to the writer that they
were very much pleased with the item.
He will doubtless be interested to
know. il he does not already. that at
the request of citizens of Winslow,
complaint Of the road conditions
there has been forwarded to the sec
rotary of the Maine Automobile As
ISOLATION to be taken up with the
State Highway Commission. l will
also take this occasion to publicly in
form Mr.. Dean that the river road so
called in Winslow, between Waterville
and the Vassalboro town line, is in a
dangerous condition

A Disappointing "Nots"

We must confess to distinct disap-
continent in the American admins
tration's latest note to the German
Imperial government. Not that we de-
sired gore, nor threats, nor take II
or leave it" proposition; but because
it lacks virility: because, following
messages that we're vital and mean
ingful. it is un-American.
Dressing old ideas in new veroiage
does not avoid repetition and the note
made public from Washington Satur-
day morning, impresses US as the
product of an American hand emascu-
lated by conservatism" or extreme
care" or some other substitute for
lack Of conviction.
At one point President Wilson de-
clares that the United States and
Germany have worked together for
freedom Of the seas and that the
American government is now con-
tending for that end and will continue
to do so without compromise and at
any cost.
We cannot but regard this express
sion as meaningless, although at first
glance it appeared to carry real
American Are and force. On closer
analysis we are let down by real
ization that to contend" for freedom
OF the seas by reiteration Of diplomat
ic papers is not costly. The United
States would not go bankrupt on such
expenditure in a dogs age.
Sorrowfully We feel that negotia-
tons have not been advanced, nor is
the United States any nearer her
rights or Germany to strict account
ability
1t is not an ultimatum that has
been sent to Germany. 1t is not even
a forceful utterance. 1t is friendly in
a degree that flavors of f1attery in the
hope that Germany will come here
and be good
We still commend the President for
avoidance Of unjust haste, unkind ex-
preston or unfriendly bearing toward
q government that has wronged US.
But we are disappointed in this note
and we believe we voice the sentiment
of a great majority Of the American
people. We cannot imagine how such
a communication can be expected to
bring anything but a wholly unsat-
isfactory reply from the German I'm
perial Government.

Tragedies Suggest Precautions.

Madison adds the third case Of
venturesome boys who have recently
lost their lives by climbing the struc-
lures supporting high tension wires.
Each case is pathetic in the extreme
and goes to prove that the price Of
human safety and happiness is eter-
nal watchfulness and precaution. The
sentiment heard everywhere is that
some method of preventing such
tragedies must be adopted.
The first case in mind Is that of the
Portland boy. Clifford Estes, who on
June 10, climbed to the top Of steel
tower and came in contact with a
wire carrying $4,000 volts. The Sec
ond was in our own city this week,
and the third at Madison on Thurs.
day. The similarity is striking and
emphasizes the danger to boys that
are full of spirit and venture and
have not reached an age Of discre-
ton. 1t will be recalled that in the
Madison case the boy was only five
years old.
No one but the immediate relatives
and friends can deplore these sad ac-
cidents more than do the companies
owning the property on which these
boys lost their lives. 1t is. quite
probably, wholly unexpected posi-
bility in their business. but it must
be accepted as real and to be met.
The first necessity Of any service is
public safety.
Suggestions are unnecessary and
We are confident that the public may
expect the early adoption Of some
method to prevent anyone not in the
company service and provided with
means Of unlocking or climbing such
structures. from ascending them. 1t
seems a problem easy Of solution at
comparatively small expense. and we
shall look for such companies to fore
stall any legislation that is likely to
spring from the public feeling.
In the Portland case the Public
Utilities Commission has already
given expression to it's opinion as
follows:
while the accident was due entire
~ to the thoughtless. and more or less
needless act Of the boy. it appears
that the operators Of this power sta
ton had previous knowledge that the
boys were playing inside the enclo-
sure, and, while such operators may
not have expected that onyone would
attempt 10 climb to the top of the
tower. inasmuch as an accident has
now occurred as q result Of such
climbing, 1t may be well for the COM
pany to so bar entrance to this en-
closure that nothing Of a similar ma
ture may in the future happen"
