ty in Minneapolis is a State institu-
ton. All the people &c the state use
our highways, and why should not all
the people contribute to the cost of
their construction and maintenance?
Nearly half Of the wealth Of the state
is in the counties Of Ramsey, Hennepin
and St. Louis. Why shouldn't those
counties help to build the roads in the
rural, more sparsely settled districts
Ramsey county has "a miles and Mile
Laos SO miles of state roads. The
total valuation of Ramsey county is
$139, 173,514 and that of Mile Laos is
$5,429, 1892 Would it be just for
Ramsey to maintain only her Ga miles
and not give one penny to Mile Laos
which has SO miles to keep in repair,
especially since hundreds of cars day
from Ramsey county pass over our
roads during the motoring season. To
the credit Of the citizens of the coun-
ties of Ramsey, Hennepin and St.
Louis it must be said they want to
help pay for our roads. 1t was the
citizens of the rural counties who most
strongly opposed the one-mill amend
ment.
Now the Babcock amendment,
Amendment No. 1, on which we have
just recently voted, will work to the
advantage of the rural counties just
as the other road amendments have in
the past. AS stated in recent issue
of the Union the cities will pay over
half the money to be raised for the
trunk highway fund and not one dol
lar Of this fund will be spent on the
streets or roads within the boundaries
of Minneapolis, St. Paul or Duluth.
This year $49,OOO was spent on the
SO miles of state roads in Mile Laos
county. AS the total county funds this
year, including the state and federal
aid, amounted to $107, 900, $50 900 was
left for maintenance and Improvement
of the local roads. Under the provi-
sions Of the Babcock amendment the
highway commission estimates $751;
900 will be available for local roads in
this county next year. We give up our
personal property tax on automobiles,
amounting to little less than 5000,
and will have our road fund increased
1913 900. Remember that not one dol
lar of taxes will be levied on any man
who does not own an automobile or
motor truck to raise this trunk high
way fund.
Since the one-mill tax went into ef-
feet Mile Laos county has received
from the state road and bridge fund
S129,624 more than she paid into that
fund. Besides she has received as fed
eral aid $15O,0O0, making a total of
$279,624 that has all been raised out
side this county and turned over to us
to be spent on our highways. Now
under the Babcock amendment the
county gives up $4,000 and receives
500, 900 in return. In addition to this
the automobile owner Will of course
have his taxes increased ON an average
of S11 for each car he runs. It is
difficult to understand how any citizen
of Mile Laos county, with knowledge
of these facts, could vote against the
Babcock amendment Nothing is
gained by lamenting over the past. hut
next time let us line up with the high
way commission and work with those
men who have already done SO much
for our county.

Of ancient tradition and the re-
cords of the Greeks, the Romans
and the Babylonians as to what
the Ethiopian was in the early
ages Of the world.
Many of the books of today are
prepared specifically, the authors
themselves are perfectly innocent
of any knowledge of the afore-men-
toned truths. The man who writes
books in America painting the Ne
gro as a Beast does so from Ignor-
ancc. Most of the scholarship of
today is very superficial. In this
generation the entire fabric Of our
historical hypothesis must be torn
down and rebuilt.

WILSON MAY RUN
 FOR COUNTY CLERK

George w. A. Wilson of the firm Of Newborn Brothers will probable be in the race for county clerk, he informed the Log Cabin Democrat to- day. MT Wilson said he had not definitely decided to become a candi- date, but was seriously considering the matter and would probably enter the race. He is a native of Faulkner county, Pleasant Valley being the place of his birth, and has a wide acquaint- ance throughout the county. MT. Wilson has unusual clerical ability and possesses the qualifications of a good county clerk. So far the only other candidate who has definitely announc- ed for the position is Dr. J. M. Muse

SAYS KILL VARMINTS
 TO REDUCE H. c. L,

Little Rock, March 5.-A cores pendent of the governor down in lief ferson county has discovered means for reducing the high cost of living. He has written the governor and sug- gested that he should offer a reward for the killing of the hen hawks and "wolfs," declaring that if tn s be done and the ''varmints" exterminated the price of chickens, pork and mutton will be reduced at least 50 per cent.
 The governor has replied that this reasoning is sound, but unfortunately the law does not contemplate the Of fering of such hounties, and ho is now- erless to put the reform into opera tion.

saitor Log Cabin Democrat:

Editor Log Cabin Democrat;
 You will find enclosed a check for the Log Cabin Democrat, Arkansas Gazette and Memphis Commercial Ap- neal. These are my favorite papers, as I get the home news. I lived 70 miles northeast of Conway and two and one-half miles from Mt. Vernon and enjoy reading all the items in 1Ae "Cabin.''
 'The "lu" has been raging around here, though not so severe as 1t was hst winter. Some schools have clos cd on account of flu" and pneumonia.
 It is very dry here; has not rained in three months The ground is dry and hard, especially in tight land. We made fairly good crop last year, hut did not raise very good garden, zs the crickets were so bad.
 like Oklahoma fine It is healthy country for me, as it is high and dry. Most every farmer makes more than his own family can gather. Our 1919 crop was as follows: Twenty acres of corn, 400 bushels; 10 acres of kaffir corn, 5000 bundles; 15 acres of inflow maize, F tons; 20 acres of cotton, nine bales; nine acres of sor- sAum, 5000 bundles; 12 acres of bFesm corn.
 Now, do you think old Faulkner can bat that? My husband and two girls cultivated this with four head of horses.
 We'll, l will close. Please print this if you think it worthy of space.
