.struction of which the state contrib
utes all or part of the cost and exper-
fence has shown that the best results
can only be obtained by the adoption
of a plan, or system of state high
ways and building to this plan. 1t is
a process of evolution out of local
control toward centralized state con-
troll, and the step from state control to
federal supervision will be as easy as
it is inevitable if the public highways,
particularly the main or trunk lines

MORE BEEFSTEAK.

During the past twenty years the cattle of this coun-
try have decreased In numbers by 1851, 900 head, swine by
ton has increased by some 100000 and grave concern
has been expressed as to the great shortage of meat pro-
ducing animals. In spite of these figures we have increas-
ed our exports of fresh meat since the European war be-
gan to more than fifty times the former amount and other
meat products in proportion.-Rura Spirit.
The day following the murder of eighteen Americans by
Mexican bandits last week, fifty thousand cards for dis
tribution were printed at Ell Paso, Texas, bearing the
phrases:
Remember the Alamo.
Did we watch and wait?
Remember the Cusi.
Shall we watch and waltz"
Those Texans are becoming very impatient at the way
Mexican affairs have been handled. They are not in svm-
pathy with our "watchfull waiting" policy, neither are
any of our citizens who live on the border and who must
know more of conditions than is ever known in the interior
We do not want war, but moral suasion is about as eff
Gent when tried on the average Mexican as it would be
on an Apache Indian. There are some things worse
than war, and few things better than peace that is pur-
chased at the price of innocent American lives.
