Hut I dou't how a Vahiiiftou county farmer who has to li- the public nuu'.H to any considerable extent like your correKiondent, inn have any such senmtion at far any more, wht-n he has to plunge from one niudhole into the other, in order to tret an where uul-iile his diMiryitrd. Your corresiiident, at leat, Ifettinsr ju rfii'tly oblivious to u h a s-nsation. The other evening w hen I was reading a (rhost story, (and a good one, too, ty the way.) 1 exieri enced that the mil d shudder did not iuws nver nil' hide when 1 read of i the agony that the man and hi wile In the story suffered, who were -ared so Hint the sweat wa running off (heir face, and they didn't dure to look around over their shoulders. 1 should have wanted In their cae to embrace lhat ghost antl get aoinalut ed with It. lMiaw! a true and ai--curate description of the n-al condi tion of our roads would beat the best ghost story in the world in dreadfnl neiss, even hudt-i would s-ein to be a pleasure ground In comparison. This maybe one good side of the si Illa tion. Hut wise men say, that a icr son who fail's danger too often, un neseusarily U going to pcrNh by it ainer or later. I have inner heard it stated that Indians had any fear or drettd of anything cle. I hhould think they would prepare for a rainy day a little better than they do, and some jieople aay they were the lia piest rac of people on earth, but what Is their fate or deMlnallon? Extermination! Shall we fall into the same careless way of looking at things? It uometlmes Mtnw to me we are going to drop Into the same rut'. But fellow-farmers, and thoe who love tho country and farm life, let Ui shake the moss off our licttds liefore it grows over our eyes and make ua perfectly blind. Ict us get up and "trlve and work haniionioo ly to make it plea-int to live In the country, ho that people will not la scheming nil the lime to accumulate a little money to move to some one horse town where the most promin ent feature is wooden sidewalks. I should like to se the reverse, insple trying to get away from the mount lonyof town life Into the country to spen.l the remttintier oi ineir nays, ami the nrst step to nring atsiui sticu ti state of affairs should Ik to secure good roads. That seems to me to !e . .. . . . at I the key to oikmi the doors into a bright and glorious future. Hut w hat inn we do ? That's the puzzle. There are a good many people in the country that desire good roa.1-., and would U- willing to U nr their share of the hunlen to that end, and considerable more, but others are in different and satisfied to let things drift, and shirk all they can. Now, there are some things that an Indi vidual can accomplish to good ad vantage, but for other, it take two, three, four or more men to carry it to an economical and successful end, thus co-oKration works wonders w here it is carried out systematically and Judiciously, but one of the prime nectwities Is organization and labor, saving machinery, and the results are astounding. The same principles applied to the road matter would overcome the whole diftlculty and the whole trouble would vanish like an ugly nightmare In a short while. Organ! ration we have as a county, what we need then is laUir-saving machineryF systematically and Judiciously ap plied. Next question Is what do our roads need? I would answer, first of all, they need a good solid stationary and even Uittom, not one that Is three feet !elow the surface in one rod and two fis-t alove In the next. The emMlishments, such as orna mental shade tn-es, can l put In afterwards, but that Is not to be thought of at present, however nice it would be. Another question Is, have we the material to put a good substantial Udtom into them. I answer emphatically we have, and in superabundance. In that respect I think we are one of the most fav ored communities In tho world. I mention the stuff-It's our ftr trees, that stand In our way In so many place, that we burn and destroy them by the million feet every year. Hut right here I encounter a prejudh-e of a good many that think rock or gravel Is the proper and only road material, Us-ause most of the good roads they ever sw were made out of that stuff. Perhajis in New York or Pennsylvania, or Europe, where they have) plenty of such and no cheap timber standing In their way, is the reason for using rock. Do not Imagine that the English, the Ger mans or the Erench, in tho- coun tries where they have good roads, would use rock if they hail so much limber as we have, comparatively worthless. They have engineer I . , . a. . . . . I .'.(- . ....... . . h i jbl. I.l'll'l 1 llutt can Htftire and cannot nffonl to 1 pxtravajjiuit, ir ftHlili in other wui'iR An.

It may not Is? a luturv. but an extravagance it Is certainly. hy, if all the un necessary wear and tear of wagons aud teams, lose of time and the end less disadvantages accruing from it In one year was computed into dol lars and ivnts and applied on the roads, it would cure that cancer in a short time, then why not tax our-m-1Ci- to that amount and scnd it on Hie road" in addition to our ii-wil road tax. Wouldn't that ho Ut ter than to send the money back East for new wagons, buggies and rubber ImmiIs? It looks like mo-t of the people have not settled the iues tion yet, whether to remain in this country or not. Everything is done I In a hapl.axard and teniiorary way, a habit we Americans get into In roaming over this continent, skim ming the cream off till that cream Is getting somewhat thin, and we are comjielled to utilize some of the skimmed residue too. We have got to the Pacitlc ooat and no other country to go to and take up large tracts of land to renew our skim ming, so we had Iietter resolve to stay here and make our surround ings as comfortable and pleasant as ossible. There isn't a U tter place on earth than Washington county. If the farmers or people of Washing ton county would consider them selves a co-oemtive Unly, each one do his part cheerfully, a titato I should think we could reason our selves into very easy when we con sider that it is for our own licnetlt. Why can not our county government build two or three ortable sawmills? I was told the other day by an old sawmill man that the price of one is only about loo, and can beset up In one day. Mire some of the many traction enuines to furnish running Hivcr, then go and make war on these giant firs and reduce them to nice smoolh planks and compel the district siiM-rvisor to lay them down in good wo.kmanlike slue, acts.r I- tier in siMs-ifloition. Thev ouuht to U-laid jn-t a little U'low the surface about an inch apart, then the dirt will exclude the air, and ki-ep Ihem from (hs-aying. In sme of thes black swale bottoms I think they would almost get s-(rilits and last forever. In some places where rock is handier it might U U'tter to sel una rock-crusher. That matter should . ... ,...,, .itii.hsl by tin r county administration. Ict some body that's in jiositioii to get at facts make computation as to cost to base operation on. r, has not our county government, as I would call it, not the authority to act as out li nisi? If not. then whv not? What are the . 0,,.u k? u.t , ll(i ut thp re- move them. l4-t some of our law yers throw light on the legal side of it. Let us get out of the mud by all means.

The investi gations In many Instances have ex tended to the ortk'id an hives of the department, llelow is a part ol uliat was found of the .pict r"' methods employed ill 1"iT to put wool on the free list. The ritiding is particularly entertainingat this time. I tut here is the scrap : One of the most interesting wit nesses before the committee was J. I, Williamson, an Englishman, w ho d'-'crit.cd biniHcl'' a a "general com mercial agent." Mr. Williamson was coy. The committee had great difficulty in pitching him. When he wns found it apcarcd that it was not Us-auso of the free-wool cam paign he was hiding out, but for other sugg-.tive reason-. "I do not know of any money ol any description U-iug paid to any parlies iius IsH," he said. "Then, I think, there wn some money paid to pass the tariff, but not by parties iu the I'nitisl States, but principally by Kurojiettn parties. I am jerftvtly willing to answer all your ipiest'ions; but, so far a I am concerned, I can not show you anything touching your present examination, and I am astonished that I have Ut n callisl here to the injury of my business and my iiersonal character." Mr. Williamson had shown such reluctance to appear U'fore the com mittee that suspicion was aroused, lie was pressed for ai. explanation of a letter he had written to the speaker protesting against U-ing required to testify. This is what be said : "I have done a great deal of pri vate business in relation to railroads lor all the principal "npitalists of Kurope, and I was told that I would n obliged to reveal it all in this ex amination. Parties sjsike to me, and -aid that itiestions would U a-.kf'd me to make ine reveal thi- business, and I guarded it for fear, as I de)en.led up hi the socrts'y of the reorts made these gentlemen for retaining their confidence and upHiriing my family." 44 ! !d you rets lve any lefter from parlies here cautioning you ami ad ! vi-ing you not to come?" "No. sir; but parties came to me and told me 1 was to be sulipo uasl U'fore I recccivod the summons of the committee.

I do not know anything nlvout t M small sum of'T,oon, whether it was given to modify the tariff or w ipe it out of existence." The committee was only author ized to go into the u-e of money in connection with the free wool of the IS'i" tariff.

The letter marked "confi dential" was from A. It. ( orbin, the clerk of the commitUs- on claims. It was addresstsl to Samuel l.awrcncc, the head of the Huston hoii-e which was laUiriug for free wool. A liU nil extract of the letter is as follows: "We are now forctsl back usn tin plan I prayed to have adopted last NovemUT to retain our ID per cent, dutii-sand have wool and tlyestuffs made duty fnv.

Naylor. an Amerinin prosfs-etor, w ho left the city of Chi liuahua, Mex., May 1st, is'.i.'l, for I trip across the Sierra Madre motin lain, and through the wild and dan serous country inhabited by the Ya qui Indians, arrived at Hermosillo, on the railroad, January ;!d. His trip was made in the search for silvei and gold, and was the most dess'rati uiiili-i taking imaginable. Mr. Nay lor's route from Chihuahua was by way of Tomachic, the town which w as entirely deMipulatsl man attack made ii h hi the inhabitants over a year ago by Mexican trisqis, who inassiii-red the men, women and chil dren. Mr. Naylor states I liat in tin mountains west of the fated town he in i ne upon a band of aUtut iloo Tom-iH-hic bravtsi who had an almost im snetrable rendezvous, tion which all attacks of Mexii-au soldier proved futile. l'xn oteterving that Mr. Naylor was an American U-ut iimhi a oaivahle mission he was well re ceived. He sM'iit two weeks with the Tomocliitst and then entered the Yaqui country. It was there that he met with difficulties. He was captunsl by a band of Yaqtiis and held prisoner several days js'iidiug a decision from the chief as to what disposition should le made of him. After several solemn councils by the chief with the other prominent mem U rs of the tril, Mr. Naylor was placis! uNm ft horse, nnd with two wounded Indians a guards, he start til Hcns the country toward the West. He pa-wed through a numlier of villagtw, and was never s-rmltts to tarry longer than one night at a single place. At the western confines of the Yaqul country his guards left him, and he made bis way with great difficulty across the mountain to Hermosillo. Nr. Naylor tells some marvelous stories of the mineral richnew of the Yaqut country, and states that tin numU-r of memU'rs of the Yaqui ' (rj(, na .n gristly under.-tl ;M)Ht He claim to have seen fully .1(HK) nrm( (i f raves.

The fleiiiiMTttic majority of the ways and minus oniiinilt.s have had another emeus t the treasury build ing, presumably undr the eye of Secretary Carlisle, and by a vole of six to tlve have agreed to recommend an income tax. Hut the plan is n.-t the one which ''resident Cleveland assvrUsl in his annual mes.sHge that the committee has adoptetl. It is jiM one month ago today since Mr. Cleveland's statement was read In congress. In the light of what has since occurnsl, his assertion is quite amusing. After discussing the tariff and after informing congress that the ways and mi nus committee had pre pared, and would pnss-nt for im mediate legi-lative action, a lull em Urdying his views, he said: "Tlie committts', after full consideration, have wisely cmbraesl in their plan a f w additional internal revenue taxes, including a small tax iimh Inounes derivnl fmin ivrtain ii)rsratioiis." As a matter of fact, the coniniiltiv, as a whole, has never i-oiisidcrtsl the subject, had not eon- idensl it up to Tuesday of this ws-k, and we now sec that even the lemoeratic msijority had not agnssl umiii the plan. It was, of course, tho administration program, but in view of its failure the president made him self ridiculous by announcing to con gress and the country that it had lieeii adoptisl by the committee. The propos'nion to enact an income tax lias actually excited more inter st and discussion throughout the utintry, the Noith particularly, than ven the tariff bill. Many of tho leading democratic and in.loenilciit ,miK-rs are lighting the scheme vigor uisly, w diet her in the form stiggesttsl iy Mr. Cleveland or as demamhsl by the southern inemU-rs and their northern allies. The vote in the caucus of the dem.ieratie memU-rs of the committee shows that the jiarty is divlihsl, and there is a good deal of uncertainty as to what the out ome may U The Snith, genenlly -pi'tikiug, would like an income tax laid upon individuals and corjiora lions, and the south dominates con gress. Si ill Cleveland has socurtsl thrs southern votes in the committee for his plan, Chairman Wilson, of West Ylrgina, Montgomery, of Ken tucky, and HrM kinridgo, of Arkan sas. Altogether the matter is very iitii h in a muddle. The ways and means committee is oiilMised of seventeen InemU-rs, eleven dvinocrais and six republicans. All of the democrat- were present at the commitlis caucus. It would U INrssihle, of couih' to defeat the individual-income plan in the full com mittee if the five administration inemU-rs should unite with the six republican, but this is not probable. riiat would defeat both plans, for the republiinns would vote against the other as well. Cleveland would not hesitate, probably, to make such in alliance, for he did it in the silver light. The democratic managers, however, will hardly saerillce their party organization. Hut I'.ourke CiM'kran and his followers may carry I he fight into the general caucus. I'hey nm do this , it flout any breach if courtesy or discipline. Tho right if a minority of the parly members of a committi-o to aps'al to the party caucus is always eottcishsl. This will most likely happen. The fate of the Income tax Is, therefore, still uncertain. The strug gle iu tli" caucus will ls a trial of strength between the administration and the mass of southenors under the leadership of MeMillcn, of Tenn- esss Ami whatever may txvur. the democratic party is not likely to get any satisfaction out of the matter.
