MILLION DOLLAR BOND
 ISSUE IS DESIRED

DOUGLAS, May After spending all their time since last Friday in- specting roads Of the county. 1t is the unanimous opinion Of the county supervisors that a road bond Issue of sl.co0,0OO. the major portion of which should be used in paving the highway between Douglas and Bis bee. should be voted at once. This was announced by Supervisor J. N. Sparks on his return here this morn. ing.
 With MT. Sparks on the inspection trip were Supervisors John Rock and V. M Johnson. County Engineer J. c. Ryan and J. N. Gaines, secre- tary of the Cochise County Taxpay- CTS association. Gaines was Of the same opinion as the supervisors.
 With the exception of a few spots, we found the roads in very good shape. considering the dry weather" said Mir. Sparks this morp- ing Tt was the opinion of all os us. however. that paving of the road
Tombstone epitaph., 1917-05-06

between this city and Bisbes h tho only wise thing to do. The traffic over 1t is so heavy that trying 10 maintain a dirt road Is almost a waste of money. Last year We spent Sl4.o00 in scarifying the road In five months time II =ss in the same condition as 1t Ia today. the coarser rocks coming to the top The top surface is ground into dust and blow away. This leaves the rocks underneath protrud;ns and he road rough.
 One of the objections that has been made against a road bond issIe is that the money would no; be wisely spent This objection hae been overcome by an act of the leg ment by the supervisors Of a com mission to have charge of the work. These commissioners serve without pay; only their actual expense, be ing provided for. Under such con ditions. the five ablest m-,n in the county could he appointed to look after the spending os the money ,o see that It Is used properly.
 "The new law goes into effect abou, 20 days from now. and then the super. visors can appoint . commission
 We figure that s1.eo0.ooo will be sufficient to pave the Bisbee read and to put the Borderland route in good shape as far as the New Mex ico line; also to build a road to the Pima county line through Bisbee and Tombstone as weu as . north and south line through wHlcox and the Sulphur Spring valley to connec, with the Borderland road in Douglas The regular road tax would be sum- cient to maintain all these roads once they were built.
 This means that the average tax payer paying taxes on property as sessed for S2.00o would have to pay only q year toward the road bonds. the required assessment telng only 50 cents on each s1.ooo.

This, of course. is the weak spot,
the heel of Achilles, in the Presi-
dents program. Can you make an
Englishman or a German believe
there must be a peace without vic
tory?" The thought seems prepos-
ferrous, with the belligercnts in their
present mood. But after another
year of carnage, with bloodshed and
suffering risen to point beyond the
capacity of flesh and blood to bear,
another mood may come-a mood

THE PENALTY OF DELAY.

Speaking at a dinner some time since.
former Congressman Bourke Cochran, of
New York, referred to, the evil of pro-
crastination and told an amusing little
anecdote along that line.
Recently a civil case came up for trail
in an Eastern court In which one of the
prominent witnesses was woman OF un-
certain years. The fair one had given
her name and address, and then .came
that fearful question.
Mrs. Smith" said the examining at
torney in a cold, merciless voice, How
old are your"
There was no answer. The witness was
hesitating. All kind of ages in clusters
and punches were doubtless rushing
through her mind, and she was trying to
think of one TO suit the occasion.
Madame" said the mean. unfeelng
lawyer once more, will you please be
kind enough TO tell the court how old
you are?"
Still no answer. 1t was too serious a
question for only a minutes deliberation.
Besides, what business was it of the
courts?
why don't you answer the question.
madame?" finally interposed the equally
unfeeling Judge The longer you hesi-
tate the older you will be."-Philadelphia
Evening Telegraph.
