In one respect, this is an ideal season of
the year tr hold a good roads convention.
The roads always being at their worst.
the necessity for good roads is apparent.
and those most interested should turn out.
It is a question, however, who in the com
munity is most interested. When viewed
from its broadest side, good roads effect
the entire commonwealth.
Every road supervisor in the county
should make an effort to attend the Good
Roads Convention, which meets in this
city on the 19th and 20th of this month.
These are the men who expend the county
money on the roads and if any new ideas
on road building are brought forward at
this meeting, and there undoubtddly will
be, these are the men who must adopt
them and sea that they are put into
practice.

Fresident Roosevelt to never caueh
napping. No sooner had he been apprized
of the fact that he had been awarded
S40.000 for his efforts in concluding
poice between Rnssia and Japan, than he
saw a chance of bettering the industrial
condition of our country and he immed
iately put the machinery in motion to
bring about the desired end. The people
irrespective of party, will make a mis
t.ike if thfly do net make him president
fur another term. He is certainly the man
needed at this time. He is fearless and
does what he considers to be his duty.
There is no "Mark Hanna" behind this ad

general public, than any of his predecc
