The most expensive fay la often Uls cheapest in the end. Good roads will Increase the trad ing radius of any town or city. The government should, improY goat roads as veil as post offices. Surfacing of roads has been re celTlng too much attention In some places at the expense of drainage. Socourage first yourself and then your neighbor to buy and use wide tired wagons. 1 ' I H The present condition of roads ought to be sufficient argument for better roada In some states 4,000 road super intendents are working along 4,000 different lines. Maintenance of rbads is as im portant as building for no roads will be good if not properly cared for. Good intentions are said to pays reads only In a region where no body wants to use them Good roads are the only sure foundation upon - which cheaper transportation can stand. Ton may complain about bad road) but It takes Totea to Issue bonds and money to build roads. The spring mud holes hare made It impossible for any old automobile tr. knock anybody's houn' around. It Is not uncommon In the coun try to see children wading through deep mud on their way to school. A construction of one good road somewhere will breed a desire for more good roads In that locality.

The Cancer The use of money In elections and primaries Is the cancer on Ameri can politics. The New York World's Respondent, writing from Colum bus, Ohio, says that Taft spent $100,000 in the primary of that stats and Roosevelt spent $300,000. ft says: "The most diligent inquiry tailed tu discover that any of the leaders or followers contributed a cent to 1 ho Roosevelt campaign fund. While Hanna and Garford were known to have put up some of It, the greater part of the $300,000 which the Roosevelt people are estimated! to . have spent came from outside of te state." ' - Mr- Roosevelt roasts the trusts and Perkins and the rest give him tlie money to run on." It was Per kins who sent word to Roosevelt when there was talk of prosecuting the steel trust, that if ha treated . taat ' trust (which had befriended him) like he had treated the oil trust, it would "fight". When Roosevelt received that message he sV ordrs not to prawatcl the steel trust. , i ' ' Children Ory res ri:Tc::::'3 A Surprise Blthday Dinner. y On Wednesday morning.

Scuttled I Frank Leslie's, always Republican, and seldom willing to concede the weakness of tbe party, has the fol lowing editorial in a more recent issue: Four years ago if any one had said that the Republican party in 1912 would be like a scuttled and drifting Bbip, he would hare been laughed at. The Republican party has changed places with the Jetemocrafcic party in less than four yeare. The former is committing itself to all the blunders of radicalism, while the latter is tending toward old fashioned conservative ideas. If the Republican party were united it would be difficult for it to elect its candidate for the presidency this year. Torn with dissension, with a small body of insurgents waving the red flag, the hope of the party in the coming contest is rapid ly disappearing. We axe not turpriaed that : Presi dent Taft exclaimed at Camden re cently, ''I feel humiliated that, as President, I am the first one that has bad to depart from the tra ditions which have kept the Presi dent at home during political con troversies." The party, too, is hu miliated. Every patriotic citizen is humiliated at the ' thought of a President and an ex-President, form, erly intimate friends and associate?, bandying epithets on the stump. The Republican ship is scuttled. It is sinking while the mutiny proceed?. What hope is there for a sLip witl ont oompass or oaptain, and muti neers on deck? Wbat hope is there for a party with a platform torn to splinters? When Colonel Roosevelt denounces Taft he denounces a Republican President, a Republican Cabinet, and a Republican administration elected on a Republican platform. If all these are failures, then the Republi can party has failed. Its opponents will be quick to make the most of this by claiming that if Taft has foiled that failure justifies the de mand of Colonel Roosevelt fof an other kind of administration. Isn't it lamentable that if the party suffers defeat this year it will come not threugh open warfare of its enemies, but because of the in surrection of its former friends, in cluding one of its greatest benefi ciaries? The nomination of a "dark horse" is the last and only hope of the Re publican party in this gravest of all the perils it has had to meet since the time of Abraham Lincoln. A poor man who la enthusiastic ton his town or county Is worth some thing, for some day if he gets any money ha will use it to build up anrf not to tear down. Eo Eo IB tbe Csst CIssd Pcrifisr.
