TAFT ENDORSES ' 4 ROAD-BUILDING (Continued from page 1) . nect with those of the adjoining c'oum ties and the Important roads ot eac! state shall connect wlthr those' of ad' Joining states." , In conclusion Directors Page laud ed the loyal and spirited support give) the movement by the railroad com' panies. "It Is Immaterial wheth?" they are actuated by wise foresight oi whether they have the welfare of thf people- along their-lines solely at heart," he said,-' the fact remains that they are doing a work which benefit! every man, woman and dh'ild within the zone of their influence, and ful credit should be given to them for it.' '. ' ' KnfWtntv Wllunn Arirlmtaa '. Good roads as related to the cost of living ' was-discussed by . the - United States Secretary of Agriculture Jamet. Wilson, in his address. He declared the cost of living would be reduced when there was established a more in tlmate relation between the producer and the consumer, . With the Increase in the good road mileage, the parcels post, he said, would perfect the facll I ties for getting from the farm to the town. . V-.f, "Relations " between " farmers- ' and town folks can be established," lie ex plained, "for the prompt transfer dally or weekly of much that the farmer produces and town people consume. At present when the town, dweller payr aonar, me larmer gets nair or less With parcels post the farmer would get more, the carrier would get hit freight and the 'consumer would get his supplies promptly, fresh and good- Dairy products, fruits, meats and veg etables are transferred in this way in other countries, with great satisfaction to all concerned -and with less un healthy food, fewer ptomaines an less frequent stomach troubles." Influence alue of Farm Lamia. The value of farm land and the ex tent and character of production thereon are influenced largely, the sec retary pointed out, by the condition of the public roads. Many products. he said, cannot be transported, fot lorig distances over poorly construct ed roadi so that -farmers In such country must raise crops that ar not perishable. This works loss tc both producer and consumer, to the former In that he must deliver hit goods, when toe roads -permit, to tht latter n that he must pay highet prices than if good roads would, per. mit the farmer to deliver his milk, fruit and vegetables with less wear and tear on horses and wagons and. In less time. s "Every farmer should, merely as matter of self-interest," said the secre tary, "be a strong advocate of road Improvement and should give practical support to a movement looking to the betterment of present conditions." Turning to what has been done In this direction by the department agriculture through Its bureau of good roads, the secretary declared that as result ef object-lesson roads construct ed by the bureau In various stater nearly 10,000 miles of food roads had been built "Last' year It was found from a careful Investigation made connection with 28 short object-lesson roads, none of them more than a mile in length, that 730 miles 'of additional road had been completed and that an Increase. of ILKOO.OOO had been ex pended In the work. : Uorcrnnient Give Aid. These object-lesson roads," he con tinued,- "are constructed under the di rection of engineers from the bureau ot good roads, whose services are given absolutely- free of cost to the local communities, although the road itself must be built at the cost of the locality.' Our laboratories for the test ing of road materials are now consld ered the foremost- In the world, and provide for the testing' of. road mate rials to determine their relative valu such tests being made tree of charge for any cltisen Of the United States. In addition, our laboratories are work Ing constantly on the problems of de vising materials and combinations of materials for the construction - and treatment ot roads to meet modern traffic conditions brought about by the Introduction of the automobile." He spoke of a number of eperlments made in various places with different kinds of road material. Enormous expenditures for road 1m provement during the past few years, he asserted, make It necessary for the work to be done right and the money wisely expended. The resources the department of agriculture to help local authorities in getting the money's worth whenever they had any roads to build, were, he declared, open to the command of the various com munltles. ; " ' To Operate Special Trains.

The police court docket was rather full this morning but the cases were .lot of sufficient Importance to take up very much of the court's time. In (act it was a very short session for a Monday mornihg. There were quite a number of "drunks" and all of them received lines. There were also a few .-ontinued cases. . W. H. Bush and Peter Brlggs, who were convicted last summer of re ailing and who were required to re port to the court In six months and ihow that they had not engaged in .he liquor .traffic after, that time, ap peared before Judge Adams i this morning and proved good behavior and were allowed to go. The case against J. B. Shockett, which was continued from Saturday, was taken up and disposed of - this morning. He was charged with ob Uructlng the sidewalk on North Main itreet by , placing goods on display there. He was found guilty and was fined $10, which Is the penalty for luch an offense. He had been con victed before the cnurt once before on the same charge and it was for this reason that he was given the limit of punishment. He appealed the ease and bond was fixed at $50. Judge Jones appeared for Mr. Shockett and attempted to show that the goods were only samples' and fur ther that they really did not obstruct the sidewalk. Having failed in both these contentions, he made the plea to the court that his client was being persecuted for the offense, as every merchant, almost on that street, on Pack square and on South Main street are doing the same thing but had not been called up about It Judge Adams refused to consider such a plea, as he said It was not his place to ferret out the offenders but to try those who were brought before him. He advised that the matter be taken before the board of aldermen if the defendant felt that he was being wronged.

The doctor's medl cine did me- no good, , I was very weak and nervous, and, some days, I could not be Up. I asked my husband to get me a bottle' of Cardul to try, and before I had taken one- bottle I was up and doing my work. t Before I commenced to take Cardul, I had such spells I was not able to do anything.

He took an appeal and liond was fixed at $50, Swepson was before the court for fighting Saturday morning and drew a like penalty. He had tried then to collect a debt from an old negro by beating him up, it is alleged, and part of the evidence against him was given by xr. - Torrence. The case this, morning grew out of that testi mony, as it seems! that the defendant had an idea .that -his last victim had sworn an Aintruth against him; and when he met him in the Y. M. I, drug store a few minutes afterward, he called him a liar and struck him Swepson argued that he was of a good character and had lived here for 40 years as a law abiding citizen. Judge Adams advised him that It was on this account that1 he did not send him to the roads Saturday, and if he came up again' ne- would send him there anyway. ",,,u ' Walter Maxwell and Will Nlchols were arraigned fof trespassing at the Auditorium Saturday night by "beat ing" their way into- the "peanut" gal lery.
