"OUT OF THE MUD"

WI pul iAOuC INT IT'S
significant events transpired in Ohio
County last week. The first was
another OF the Fiscal Courts inane
sessions at which as usual claims for
inefficient road work under the
archaic hand SYSTEM" at fancy
prices, were allowed, the only
chance of paying which was to bor-
row more money, thus increasing
the cOunty's already burdensome
and Illegal amount of Indebtedness.
The other event was a meeting of a
number OF representative citizens
from various parts of the county for
the purpose OF devising ways and
meaIs Of getting a real and pcrma-
mont system OF good roads.
Under the provisions Of the act OF
the General Assembly Of 1920 es.
tablighing a system of inter-county-
seat roads, Ohio County is entitled
10 four projects, totaling over one
hundred miles and reaching every
section Of the county. But so far
only q few miles of one project have
been undertaken and none COM
ple,Ci. Other sections OF the state
are receiving State and Federal
aid, bu, Ohio County is passed by
Why? Simply because other coun-
ties have insured local aid in the
way Of bond issues, special road
taxes, &c. while OHIO has done
practically nothing. Ohio County
is in debt in the neighborhood OF
100000. This Is many thousands
OF dollars above the limit allowed
by law and things are getting no
better. Lei that matter, its cause
and its remedy, lie. The all import
ant question is how is Ohio County
toy pull itself out of the mud"
keep up with the other counties in
the matter of good roads? The
money now spent on woodworking is
in a great measure wasted and the
time is fast approaching when even
that haphazaId work will be i'm
possible for lack of funds, When
that comes it means business chaos
and industrial stagnation, for high
way communication of some passa-
bic kind is the backbone OF a COM
munity's prosperity.
There is a remedy for this dis
couraging condition, however, If we
will only adopt it. Ii this county
will furnish road improvement
funds in respectable amounts, the
STAGE and Federal governments will
expond within our borders two dol
lars for each dollar spent by us. In
addition, the roads so lontructed will
ton, the roads so constructed will
be maintaised without cost to the
county. Isn't thetstatement true,
which was made by prominent
physician at the meeting mentioned
above: "a man would be fool
not to take advantage of a PROPOSE
tion like that?"
Therefore only the method OF
raising the local funds remains.
Either an annual levy of 20 cents
on the hundred dollars OF our as
sessment to be expended within the
year levied in a haphazard manner
or the same levy used as a sinking
fund to cover the interest and pay
off bond issue is permitted. II is
proposed to issue 100000 of bonds
payable in one to thirty years. bear
ing percent interest, the proceeds
TO be expended in cooperation with
,he State and Nation in building
good roads here at home, underline
direction ard control Of bipartisan
commission. To do this the question
of such an issue must be submitted

MOST MISSISSIPPI
CROPS FOUND GOOD
Cotton at Critical Stage and Hot
Weather is Desired for
Good Yield.

Gulfport, Miss, Aug. Sd. A. Nc
Candliss, agricultural statistician in
Mississippi for the U. s. Department
Of Agriculture, makes the following
semi-monthly report on crop con-
ditions in Mississippi.
Cotton Is at a very critical stage
in its development, and the weather
during the next two or three weeks
will materially affect the yield.
Weevils are abundant nearly all over
the state, and If weather continues
rainy during the first part of Aug
ust the yield will be seriously fe-
duced. Hot. dry weather for the
next two or three weeks, will hold
the weevils in check enough to al
low good yields in most sections Of
the state.
Corn is generally in good condition
although the acreage is reduced from
that of last year. There is larger
proportion of the crop planted late
than is usual In the southern part
of the state some of the corn is near
ly ready to harvest. In few places
in North Mississippi, there is still
some of last years corn for sale; this
is quite unusual at this time of the
year.
Hay promises well, all indications
point to good yield. There are
few reports of losses in the field due
to heavy rains. Pastures are general
ly in better conditions than usual at
this date.
Sweet potatoes are beginning to be
dug in many sections. and some ship
ments have gone out. Low prices are
discouraging shipments in many
places. Yields and quality are gem
orally good, and the bulk of the crop
is in good shape.
Sugar cane is showing UP well
nearly everywhere, though the acre.
age Is somewhat reduced from that
of last year.
Live stock is in good condition gem
orally. A considerable number of
young chickens have been shipped
from North Mississippi lately, many
Of them going to New Orleans. In
terest in poultry raising is increas-
ing in nearly all parts of the state.

such a great demand made from pa

with diseased tonsils and adenoids to
have these corrections made before
the child enters school this fall.
Children must be registered with
Miss Davis at least 3 days before
regular clinic day in order that Miss
Davis will know how many beds to

in a political campaign against
his opponent because everybody
knows that a man in a cam
paign cannot resent such an in
suit in the manner it deserves.
Mr.. Wall ignored this silly lit
tie charge and only answered it
by saying that his whole life,
both as private citizen and as
a public officer stamped it as
false. Notwithstanding the fact
that Mr.. Wall ignored it, Mr..
Quin proceeded to place it in the
hands of every voter in the Dis
trict by printing it in circular
form. This was a false issue,
and had nothing to do with the
campaign and was dragged into
the campaign solely by Mr.. Quin
and his shrewd lawyer for the
specific purpose of beclouding
the issue and misleading the
people so that the election would
be settled not on the issues in
volved in the campaign but upon
Mrs. GUMS religion. We believe
that an intelligent people can
see through a small piece of po-
litics like this. Instead of Mr..
Wallis taking issue with Mr..
Quin on such an immaterial
matter, to-wit, his wife's relig-
ion, he continued to discuss big
problems such as taxing ques-
tions and many other issues of
interest to the people, while Mr..
Quin continued to talk about the
church to which his wife be-
longs!

Stamps Makes Conflicting Statements.

In the beginning of this cam
paign, Mr.. Wall wrote and mail
ed to every voter in the Seventh
Congressional District plat
form outlining his position upon
many big problems that are now
facing, this nation. He went on
the stump and discussed these
problems while Mr.. Quin was in
Washington, and while Mr.. Quin
was absent from the district Mr..
Wall did not refer to him direct
ly or indirectly but confined his
speeches and writings solely to
big measures. AS soon as Mr..
Quin returned to the district,
instead of entering into a dis
cussion of what he had done and
what he would do if he were re-
elected, he went into conference
with an astute lawyer and a
sleek politician and issued a
statement which he had publish
ed in every paper in the district
accusing Mr.. Wall and his cam
paign manager with originating
and circulating a LIE on him
in reference to the church to
which his wife belonged. We
call the peoples attention, and
especially the attention, of the
refined womanhood of this coun-
try to the language used. Mr..
Quin does not use a decent ex-
preston, but uses that ugly word
that no gentleman should use to-
ward another, and we do not be-
lieve any right-thinking person
viii endorse its use. A brave
man would not use such a word

OLD TRAILS HIGHWAY
 IS BEING IMPROVED

FLAGSTAFF, Ariz., Aug. 5.-The summer is being utilized in pushing through important improvement plans on the Old Trails highway across Ari- zona. Contracts have been awarded for 32 miles between Winslow and Holbrook, section that has been muddy and troublesome in the past. Another section of improvement is between Crookston and Seligman, 10 miles, wherein a 20-foot roadway will be built. At present this section is extremely bad, possibly the worst of the road through Arizona.
 To the eastward, Apache county has sold $175,00O worth of 6 per cent road bonds to the Bankers Trust company of Denver. Most of this sum will be used in improvement of the main highway from the Navajo county line, through St. Johns to Springerville, An independent movement with its main support in Gallup, N. M., is try ing to divert travel by a road paral- leling: the Santa Fe from Holbrook to Gallup. This route, while materially shorter, also is rougher and is not much used.
