Municipal Franchise Urged.

Another and very important mat
ter should be the granting of franchis-
es TO companies which desire to do o
freight or passenger business over
established routes. These franchises
should pay a reasonable fee for the
use of the public highways, which
should go into fund for the mainten-
ance of the roads covered by the fran
chises
"At present motor cars owned In
Toledo. and paying no taxes in Michi-
gan whatsoever. are doing freight
business between Toledo and Monroe.
and ultimately will reach Detroit.
Passenger buses are now doing
business on regular routes in a great
many places in the state. Four suca
routes were running out Of Lansing
last summer.
"In other words, such companies
furnish the rolling stock and ask the
public 10 maintain the tracks This IS
obviously unfair 10 the public and
should be romedied at the earliest
possible date

Some AdNerse CondItIons.

CAS- whole there has been but little
tendency TO hold up road construction
in Michigan due to war conditions any
more than has been absolutely neces-
sary on account Of shortage Of cars,
the .prohibitory use Of open top ears
under priority order No. 2, and the
shortage and high price of labor
This Is shown by the fact that 654
miles OF road have been completed for
state reward during the last months
of 1917, while during the same period
of 1916, 915 miles were completed.
"The entire mileage constructed
during the previous fiscal year was
1858 miles, and IL the same ratio pre-
walls during the remainder of the fiscal
year, the total mileage will be only
751.
However, the shortage Is nothing
to what II would have been were II
not for the fact that upwards OF 60
per cent OF all the roads built for state
reward in Michigan are gravel roads,
the larger part OF which are built with
materials within n wagon or truck

MS clearly where our duty lies. Never
have there been such fascinatingly
simple modes. Perhaps 1t is the CO.
quette in the woman which makes II
necessary for her to prove she Is as
fascinating in calico as in velvet; per-
haps the motive is deeper one; at
any rate there are new and becoming
styles, styles that improve tile appear
ance on account OF their very simple

Whole Sector Resounds With Guns.

With the American Army in
France, Feb. 2.-The whole Amer1-
can sector is resounding with the
boom of guns. Airmen became ex-
ceedingly active along the American
front on Saturday. Enemy snipers
wounded two Americans slightly ear
ly this morning.
A shift of the wind today cleared
away the mist which has hindered ae-
rial operations and other activities
for several days. A number of bat
ties in the air were fought by patrol
ing planes early this evening. In one
instance the French aviators defeat
ed an attempt of German fliers to
cross behind the American trenches.
The artillery and snipers have be-
come increasingly active. American
75's are harrassing traffic behind the
enemy trenches. The Germans are
confining their fire largely to Amer
ican trenches. Throughout Friday
night machine guns ratified ceaseless-
ly from German positions.
