EICOUNTY JUDGE SIMS
WANTS HIGHWAY ENGINEER

Ex-County Judge J. E. Sims, who re-
allies the importance Of the Highway
Engineer, il we are to have better
roads in this county, writes the Led
ger the following letter concerning
this mater:
THOMPSON, No, Sept %. r NJ.
White & Son. Dear Sirs; The county
was never in a greater need Of a High
way Engineer; a man who will save
the county enough money to make it
self-sustaining. ! voted on retaining
the officer when it was voted on be-
fore and know we need such an Off
eial more now than we did then.
The best road overseers told me that
the Hon. John Wakefield, who was
Highway Engineer at that time, saved
districts much money in helping
them buy material and looking after
bridges and ,~ulverts.
! am heading a petition at this time
10 which | am getting signers, ask
ing the County Court to give the peo-
Pile a chance 10 vote on this PROPOSE
lion again. Yours truly,

THE T DIVISION.

WRAPPED in the usual cloak Of
mystery, but bearing more or less the
stamp Of probability, the rumor con-
corning the moving Of the Alton diyi-
sion from Booth TO this city, as a re-
suit Of the eight-hom law. is not only
good news, but most encouraging.
That the rumors concerning the
building of the Burlington north are
again alive and Justify kicking adds
much zest to the reports Of better
things in store for this city as a rail
road center
just how much Of this ramored i'm
provemeut will develop and Just how
much that is yet unpublished will
materalize, Of course, is purely CON
lecture. However, we hope where
there is much smoke some real
sire" will develop,
Half Of the rumors have not been
published regarding the railroad
prospects for Mexico. Conditions
were never brighter than they are to-
day for this city's development along
this line if half the reports become

HOW TO SUCCEED

A WHISKY ad. declared: Total
abstinence is a form Of fear-and fear
is the cause of failure. Cast out

why confine it merely to the matter Of
abstenienee from alcohol? You do
not smoke. Then, Of course, you're a
coward. You abstain from profanity?
Be a hero; indulge in oaths "mOder-
ately.' DO you often beat your
wife. What, never? Some booze
magnate may c you Of showing
the white feather II you don't knock
her down "in moderation" That
