Tuber of llurnetmlJe, Oiuo, master of the N:ittuial (irange, in uu dresaing the opening sesHion of tiie .National (ri)ngo annual meeting on Wednesduy, urged the 800,000 mem ber. of the orgunlifatioD to aeek a cure for their troubles through ad Jierencc to a on mi buHinesa priuciples, rattier than by leg.n'.4tion, , As Mr. Tabor ih being groomed by (he National (jrange as iu eundidate for secretary of agr.culture, his ad dress was taken to be an enunciation oph.a views regard. ng tiie farm prob lem. , "U'e have cold contempt for the army of politicians," he continued, "who beliiUe the intelligence of the farmer by insisting that his prosper ity ia dependent upon their support. True, the furmer need a legislation the same as ihor, finance and industry, but legislation at best is but an en abling act. Self help and not govern mental help will secure Teal prosper ity. Orators have expuonded, com missions havo investigated, writers have given us a deluge of book and literature on the farmer's conditions and its cure, with little benefit." Jie pointed out that uiring the mat three years farm values had shrunk twenty billions dollars and that, during that over 1,100,000 tillers of the soil had left the farm and there prob ably were more during last year. 'Ihe Cooperative system of mar keting and production," was also touched upon. Air. Tuber declaring that both required careful study. Mr. Taber suggested that the. fed' eral tax on nutomobded Jie used ex clusively for the construction and maintenance of highways and that the farm to market roads should not be neglected iu the development of a national highway system. ' He urged rigid enforcement of law, particularly piuhihition, and the elim ination of officials who have betray ed the trust of the pco;ile. r rom every1 cross road, in Amer ica," he .said, "there is coining an insistent demand for a new deal in politics and public affuirs. The cring ing cowardly politician of the old school, who puts party clfaro and party expediency above the people's good, and who ia willing to tralfick in the spoils of office, has no place in the civilization nhead." MM HOMES HERE TO BE BEAUTIFIED over the records of 103 be said about all be could tell me was, tb.it there was about 14,000 of the bom money used on the iouuun road iu J01&, later he gaveuie Urn following information: Ihat there were .-JOSU'j yards of rock used at a coat of per yard, ife also showed me the cost of soint maintenance material that had been placed of. the same piece of road this year. The price of this was TJfyc per yard. I asked if this meant delivered on the road and he said, "No, that waa what it cunt to put it to the crusher." To the best of my knowledge this nas the only time the crustier waa mentioned while 1 was in his office. . c It seem that Air, Morse. Mr Crowe and Air. iiede have tuken some Finterest in wauling the public to un derstaud that tJu rock cost $-.ti- per cubic yard in the bunkers and thut it cost about fl more -to incorporate it in the roud. Hy request X have received a state ment from J. A. Klledge that mjy be of interest in connection With this subject. Air. KlU'dge was patrolman of rotid district No. 1.1, in 11 1M, and bad full charge of both the gradiug and rocking of the Loudon road. He stutes' that his records siiv.v that the crusher was operated in Oi. toer, 102.1, i days with an average of (M yards per day at "a cost of $1.05 per yard in the bin. In No vember 24 days with an average of 57 yards per d.iya at a cost of $1.10i. per yard in the bin. This included wages, wood and oil, but nothing for we.ir or breakage of machinery. This rock was put on the road with two trucks at an actual cost of $8.50 per day including wages, gas mid oil but Air. Kllcdge states he tbinks the court figured the .trucks at Slo per day. It seem the figures given by Mr. Klledge, adding sprinkling, rolling and a reasonable allowance for wear on and maintenance of the mechinery and tjQls, would run very close to for rock on the finished read, lnat is, one cubic yard of.cniHhed rock meas ured loose in bius or trucks cost about 2..'i4 for .Harrying, crushing hauling, spreading, sprinkling and roii- intr. . - . . No doubt one reason for placing no much stress on the iri the bunk ers is to pacify the members of the Coast fork local and make tuein tniDK thev got a bargain in the gravel nt 2.o but they are still wonderi.i why some one does not ten iisein wny the contractors were paid about 000 for a piece of work that the coun ty could hove done fr half of the mount allowed. , Mr rmwa in bin flriifle in the Res istor of October M states) that thv Coast fork local made & mis-statement when it aaid the court rejected all bida for crushed rock. He stated I fart they only switched the bid for crust ed rock to gravel. let that be as It may we surely lost the rock and gut the gravel. ' " t As to the charges made against in;- committee by A, S. Newton iff tiie Guard of October 25. will say that I am willing to leave this matter with the local. Whether the local circa t make a reply or not I sha:i ctieenuiiy abide by its decision.
