At Taliesin, the Frank Lloyd Wright
home, at Spring Green Mrs. Mauo
Miriam Noel told of her deep love for
the architect and her sense of the
''persecution" he has suffered on her
account
my real faith in him has never wa
vered, but we have passed through
deep waters together" she said. The
worlds ready to condemn love like
ours, but we do not care. That is why
| am at Taliesin, and that is why l in
tend to remain. l wrote the letters to
Mr. Wright as have already said, and
| do not care to add to my first state
ment. The love | bear for Mr.. Wright
is love which can endure anything
and [ shall remain at Taliesin with
him..

QUESTION TO THE
DISTRICT ATTORNEY
FOR HIS OPINION

Evidently the highway funds of the
county are in something of a tangle
which has come about during the past
few years. When the work was being
done in some of the towns it was decid
ed to go on and spend more money than
was actually on hand. The town Of
6cers and the county commissioners con-
ferred on the matter and the work was
done In some cases the money used
was borrowed by the towns and in
others it was taken from the common
fund in the hands of the county trea-
surer. The town of Spring Green has
overdrawn about $500 and other
towns smaller amounts. Added to the
embarrassment some of the towns
which voted money have not seen the
road built and there is now no money
in the common fund for the purpose.
In still other cases the towns have gone
ahead, as in the case of Greenfield, Dor
rowed money, built road and expect
Tile Guilty W pay 1uOAA O0Ch ACAU Se~A'
When the matter came before the
board, District Attorney James FL. Hill
was asked if the towns owing the coun.
ty county could be made to pay and ne
was Of the opinion the collection could
not be forced Morally the towns
should pay. One supervisor expressed
himself as afraid to present the balance
due from his town to the voters of his
bailiwick, fearing they would not vote
the money. There was some rapid talk
during the discussion and County High
way Commissioner G. F. Post came in for
his share of criticism and in return ne
wanted to know of County Clerk Wood
why about SIS, 900 of interest from the
road funds on deposit had been credited
to the general fund when it should have
gone into the highway account. The
condition is partly due to change
the law.

What to Do

Mr.. Hirst said the roads that have
been built must have the surface re-
constructed and covered with tar or oil
for protection. When floor was laid
a carpet or rug was put down. The
road bed, too, must have protection.
He assured the board it would 5000 q
mile to keep the roads in repair, or
$26, 600 a year for the $50 miles of mac
adam roads in the county. The more
roads built, the more the cost
for maintenance. He said the
oil or tar applied should have at least
60 per cent of asphalt. If the county
continued and built the 431 miles laid
OUT the annual cost. of maintaining would
be $50, 200 year. He had good word

Something Wrong With Work

He repeated there was something
wrong with the work in this county 1t
was not equal to that done in other
counties and the state Office had n
friction with any county except Sank.
He asked for change two years ago
and nothing has been done. He apollo
gized for the negligence of his depart
ment and assured the members it would
not continue if Sank county shared in
state aid. Of the vast sum spent in
Sank county the state has given
SAP, 900 and the state officers were held
responsible. He said if the state high
way commission was not as it should
be, a new board should be selected. He
said it was almost impossible TO drive a
man with gun from the state office
to Sank county and this condition
should not exist, it was not fair to the
tax payers. He said he believed that
Mr.. Post had too much to do. A vast
sum of money had been spent and the
supervision by one man was out of the
question. He had nothing against any
one connected with the road work
in the county. he said, but there
was not the harmony there
should be. This must be changed.

A. K. Hirst Speaks

About this time A. r. Hirst of the
state highway commission was ready
to speak and was given the floor. He
said that IN the past that Sank coun
ty had led in road building in Wis
consin in proportion to property val
uation. He said the results in this
county were not satisfactory to the
state highway commission and
that cooperation was most essential
TO the beat results. The tax payers
should receive full value for their mon
ey. The county has laid out 431 miles
to build and of this amount 100 miles
has been constructed. He was in favor
of continuing the construction of the
road between Plain and Spring Green,
between Baraboo and the western end
of the county through La Vale, between
Baraboo and Prairie du Sac and be-
tween Baraboo and Merrimack. Aside
from these he seriously opposed the
extension of other roads. There is no
such a thing as permanent road, =
he asserted. The science of road build
ing has greatly changed in the past fif-
teen years on account of the coming of
the automobile.

TREE VANDALISM IS.
REPORTED TOBOARD
OF commissioners
PRACTICES OF YOUNGSTERS IN
BROWNSVILLE WILL BE STOP
PED BY SHERIFF AND DEPU-
TIES IN SHORT ORDER.

Commissioner Tracy brought up,
at the regular meeting of the board
of county commissioners last night,
a complaint which had been brought
to his attention of the manner in
which boys in the Brownsville settle
ment were running pecan trees,
throwing rocks into the trees for the
nuts, and caring little where the said
missiles fell, or what damage result
ed to windows in the immediate
neighborhood. The statement was
additionally made that when efforts
are made, on the part of settlers out
there to stop this real ruinous vandal-
ism, that youngsters are ready to
"cuss out" any protesting person,
and this had reached the point where
those who have suffered so long de-
cided to ask for relief, even to the
placing of a deputy sheriff in the
neighborhood.
Brownsville is just beyond the city
limits, but Commissioner Davis in
formed the board that the county had
never yet taken over the roads there.
He located it on what was known as
the old Nunez Ferry road, and in
formed the board that there were a
number of good citizens residing out
there, and that there were also a
large number of nice houses in the
neighborhood.
Chairman Barrineau thought the
best thing to do was to ask the sheriff
to see to it~that the abuses COM
planned of-were stopped, even if some
of the youngsters had to be brought
to the county Jail and punished.
County Attorney Avery was pres
ent, and he said that it was clearly
a violation of the criminal law for
such practices to be allowed, and that
the perpetrators should be brought
to the bar of justice and made to
see the error of their ways in that
manner.
It was decided to leave it to the
sheriff to put an end to the proceed
ings complained Of, and there is like
Nv a whole bunch of trouble for the
offending youngsters, as the sheriff
viii place a deputy in the neighbor-
hood shortly.

shrapnel from the Turk guns tore
down all of our flags.
"The Turks and Kurds have de-
clared a holy war against the Armen-
ians, and vowed to exterminate them.
The population of Van was poorly
armed and were forced to use brass
and copper trinkets to make bullets.
Three small cannon were made of
scrap metal. The supplies of ammu-
milton were running short and the
Russians arrived just in time to save
the Armenians from being wiped out. /"
Mr.. Yarrow said many Armenians
were suffering from typhus and other
diseases and when he left, conditions
almost everywhere in Armenia were
terrible. Half Of the missionaries
were taken i'll during the siege and
six died.
According to Mr.. Yarrow, many Of
the atrocities practice by the Kurds
on the Armenians were indescribable.
He confirmed all Of the reports Of out
RACES which have reached the United
States and said only portion of the
real story had been told.
