A Kansas editor has hit upon the dis

are more breadwinners thanbreadmakers.
The last surviving widow of a Revo

The Go?d Roads Ci-vention, which
meets in this city on the 1 9th and 20th
should be attended by representative cit
izens from every port.'cn of the county.
Here is an opportunity hr the tax payers
of this county, in a pun! c manner, to give
expression as to tneir des res as to how
the county money siould be expended by
the county court. Not that the court is
not doing its duty, for it is. but neverthe
less if some plan as mght be suggested
at such a meeting as this G:od Roads
Convention, A'ou'd meet witri general ap
proval, the court woj d undoubtedly be
pleased to follow the w s;.es of the people,
and would forestall poss ble criticism
which would possibly oe forthcoming in
the event the covrt w:uld adopt some
similar plan cf is own accord. There is
aiwaysa certain elerent in every com
munity that is agair.st any and every
movement towards progression, that is
they are always on hand i-.h a knock
but never with a suggestion. There is no
question but what tie good road move
ment is of vital impoitance to this county
and this coming convention, if attended.
will result in a unity jf action that will
forth gcod fruit.

It is astonishing how many people are
barely existing in the densely populated
East, while Kansas and other great agri
cultural states of th; west and mho.. f
the south are praying f.-r skilled and un
skilled labor at "cood wu." A
who says his idleness is enforced these
days, is fibbing. It would be well a!s
for every southern and western state to
have an immigration bureau for the dir
ection of home- seekers.
