Oewu.te, Dec, Si. Christmas has romt
nd pone. The day was celebrated in Os
wego according lo the disposition and hah
its of the people. On Christinas eve at the
M. K. church two tine Christinas tires were
loaded with candy, nuts and oranges for
the little ones. An interesting program,
consisting of recitations, songs, etc., was
rendered by the children of the Sunday
school and Prol. Jones's singing class. The
church was crowded to its utmost capacity.
At the Chun of the Sacred Heart a mid
night mass au held. This church was also
crowded. The l'astor. Rev. Donnelly, de
livered a very interesting discourse before
celebrating mass. The ceremony was very
Impressive ami interesting. There was no
aervice at the Congregational church.
I am informed upon prettv good author
ity that one of the saloons here ran an op
position celebration at which there were a
number of boys, averaging m age from four
teen to twenty years, who were all in a state
ol maudlin drunkenness before they left. It
is a burning shame that such violations of
the law are meekly submitted to by the
parents of these boys, or by any good citi
ten for that matter.
Miss Rose Haines met with a serious ai-ci-
dent Sunday last
stairs by some means she tripped and fell
forward striking the steps in a number of
places before reaching the bottom. Fortu
nately no bones were broken, but she was
severely bruised by the fall. Dr. Savior,
who was called to attend her, anticipates no
very serious consequences from her bruises,
but has ordered absolute quiet for some time.
John Westman and Jack Kosberc came

school, Prof. A. J. Voder.'

in macadimizing the road from Kly out

be planked and by the time that wore out

I They show an awakening of deep interest
in a subject which lies nearest the prosper

benefits to be derived from electric lines
and rapid transit of any kind ; but these,
after all, are only luxuries which can be dis

Neither did they seem to take into consider
ation the fact that there was perhaps ten or
twenty times as much truvel on the main

The subject of deepest interest just now
seems to be the question whether the pres
ent road system can be bettered or not, and
there seems to be a general feelingamong
the thinking public that it can. The idea
seems to be growing in the public mind that
the large sums of money which the county
court will spend upon the roads in the near
future should be spent under the advice of
a comrietent engineer.
As to the qualifications of the four so

depend on Tom, Dick and Harry to build
them, or shall depend on men who are wil
ling to devote their time and attention to
the science of roadrnaking?
There Is a great deal of criticism of the
road supervisors, many contending that
they are a useless expense. To such I would
say, go and watch the work carried on un
der private contract, railroad building for
Instance, and you will always find men
whose business it is to oversee such work
men whom their employers can trust In
whom they have confidence. And such
people don't usually spend their money for
nothing.
If the court has not such men in charge
of the road work, then I say, by all means
fire them out and find others in whom they
have confidence.
