I The etliUir of the Oregonian lia-.de- dared himself in favor of Secretary Root's theory of centralization, that the ' States have no rignts the federal gov f erniuent is Iwuud to icpei't anil that I the general governuient, meaning there- by the President, should control iu all ;.' matters. The Suites of tin; Union aie "- described as oligarchies, and all tlie ills Dinler which we are suffering are laid nt tln4r door. The Constitution of the United States is liberally denounced, therefore it may lie n-a iim-.l that this centralization nioveinenl is in opios. tion to tlie ilia: cut the 1'rcsideiit has sworn to defend. "Uv whom," says the -editor, "are the antiquated, denational i.ing; sections of the Constitution in voked? Is that instrument ever ipioled ' : for the H-ople. Jl. es it permit the pro- ' leelion of children from killing toil? Of women from the horrors of night work, ' etc?" Well, we don't know. It takes a pretty (rotal eoiiHtilutional 1 iwyer to give orT-hand opinions 011 so many quest ioim. ' But when it is asserted that the Slates are responsible for the special privileges tliat prevail iu this country Mr. Kt-ott mast be aware that he is talking nun- sense. The protective tariff, which he I has denounced as the greatest of all ! grafts, is national, and the States have tire, worn share of road griitl.-r or unv piece of flat steel will .lo if you have it. If you have none of these the wood will What a Kiiiiil Drag lines.

Almost imperceptibly thii center if tlie road is leveled until you ilisrover you have made a smooth grade which is not easily affected by bad weather, dragging docs away with the. bumps in each side of bridges ami culverts; as the wheel tracks are witet out, the water dis s not run to the bridge after every shower as it 11-ed to do, so ywi can drive 11 h swiflly over thawed 011 top during the winter and spring. A siihk th surface for travel is 1 liiis produced, but a more valuable re suit is that the road will shed the next ruin instead of ab.--.rl. ing it. This is the iea-011 why the mad should be dragged every time so that it w ill alwavs be readv nr the next rain.
