OFFICIAL PAPER
THURSDAY,
The favorable action which the
county court will take in the mat
ter of building the new road
through Hay Creek canyon, thus
avoiding the long and energy
destroying haul over McPherson
hill, is commendable to sav the
least. The road is one which
should have been built a matter
of 25 years ago, but even at thi?
late day the route will service its
purpose, and to greater advantage
because of the material increase
during the past two years in travel
and freight traffic. The estimate
placed upon the total cost of con
structing the road ranges between
13000 and 13500, and beyond
doubt the entire " expenditure
would be counterbalanced each
year in the saving in time and
rates to all parts of the county.
Hay Creek canyon offers a natural
p;us through which a road can be
built on safe ground at a water
level and now that the county
court has viewed with iu own eyes
the proposed route and determined
definitely the saving in time, labor
and cost such a road would afford,
it in to be hoped that little time
will be lost in giving the whole
county the benefit of the advant
ages offered bv the undertaking.
The following card, sent out by
a Detroit commercial club is worth
reading and pasting in your hat.
If there is any chance to boom
business, boom it. Don't pull a
long face and look as though you
had a sour stomach. Hold up
your head, smile and look for bet
ter things. Hide your little ham
mer, and try to speak well of
-Al
uwiers no matter now small you
really know yourself to be. When
a stranger drops in, jolly him, tell
him this is the greatest town on
earth, and it is. Don't discourage
him by speaking ill of your neigh
bors. Lead him to believe that he
lias at last struck a place where
white jteople live. Don't knock.
Help yourself along 1 y becoming
popular, and push your friends
with you. It's dead easy. Be a
good fellow, and soon you will
have a procession of followers. No
man ever helped himself knocking
other people down in character and
business. No man ever got rich
by trying to make others 1-elieve
he was the only man in town who
knew anything. You can't climb
the ladder of success by treading
on other people's conn. Keep off
the corns and don't knock. .
The Portland Journal has chas
ed the rainbow colors in which it
is printed down the street, and
the "old woman in the tower" will
apply some to the faces of her
own family, namely, the Evening
Telegram. In fact one issue of
the latter has already appeared in
all the gergeous array capable 'of
being administered by a four
decker, magazine supplement,
Hoe perfecting press, and
promise is given of more to come.
So far, the prismatic colors of the
Telegram are confined to its
humorous supplement in Saturday
evening's edition, but "colors run"
and no doubt they will gradually
work themselves around to the
frontpages. This, of course, will
be a slow procedure, so the public
will not gain the idea that the
Telegram is aping the progressive
style set by The Journal. But the
change is coming. The garland
ox reu win soon De a prominent
feature of the old woman's twilight
mouthpiece. The signs of the
times all point that way. Even
the old woman herself may suc-
cuuid later on to the same style to
keep from losing ground.
The town of Waycross, Georgia
claims to have 'solved the liquor
problem without resorting to pro
hibition or local option. The city
council has passed an ordinance
fixing the liquor license fee at $30
000 a year, thus making Waycross
undoubtedly the highest licensed
town in the country. Nineteen
years ago the campaign for high
license started and the fee was fixed ;

at $10,000, which w as considered a
prohibitive price, but a merchant
raised the money, took a license
and made a fortune, retiring lat
year, and now the council has fixed
the foe at $30,000, which it is U
lieved no one will be able to pay.
Chicago has just gone through
another of its paradoxical perform
ances by giving Judge Dunne, the
democratic nominee for Mavor, a
plurality of over -4,000 votes in
the city eWt ion of last Tuesday.
If Roosevelt weie to be elected
tomorrow, the same city would
prodably give him as large a
plurality as it has Dunne.
