Is There a Reason.
Contributed.

The Louisville Evening Times
of March 26, has an editorial
with the above heading. The
subject matter of the article is
the votes of Oldham and Simp-
son counties on propositions to
levy a twenty cents tax for road
purposes. By his comments the
Editor fails to find any reason
Why the voters by large MAORI
ties or any majority at all should
fail to endorse the proposition.
1t rather by implication charges
their action to want of judgment
and understanding their own
interest, and that they in fact do
not desire good roads. 1t is not
fair to these people to assume
that they do not desire good
roads. The editorial commends
the enterprise and good citizen
ship in matters generally. It
might be if the Times Editor
were among these people that
they could give him some rea-
sons for their actions satisfac-
tory to themselves if not to him.
A very large majority in these
two counties are owners of real
estate or dependant upon agricul-
tnre for a living. Its highly pro-
bable that these people are very
anxious for good roads, and un-
der conditions other than condi-
lions now existing would gladly
vote such tax. Since the people
are now finding out what was

Friends.

Although this world is rent by war
God sends his blessings everywhere;
And if for sins we'll make amends
He'll bless our lives with loving
friends.
And loving friends from Gods own
fold
Are better far than paltry gold.
For piles of gold though mountains
high
True loving friends can never buy.
True friendship is gift from God
To ease the pain Of sorrows rod:
Though poverty or riches be
True friends will always stand by thee
And though your lot be grievous sore
True friends will always help you DER.
A savage beast I'm sure I'd be
But for the friends He's given me;
And if these friends would retain
A worthy friend must remain.
