No one has been blown away or swallowed up in a waterspout and the crop outlook gives promise of plenty. Verily, with an occasional rainy day, we have much to make us feel thankful. Now that tin" Nicaragua canal 1 commission has agreed upon a 1 roti te for the great water way which i will bring New York and Oregon sixty days closer together by sea, it is to be hoped that the government will not longer delay the building of this important connecting link. The Pacific coast, the middle west, and the Gulf states recognize the neces sity of the speedy construction of this important artery of commerce, and while the matter is pending, the sections interested should send no man to congress who does not promise his unqualified suppor t to any measure that will favor the canal. ------- ---------- The Earhnrl Grader. Wliut, when put into skilftd hands, the Rarhart grader can do for a road is beau tifully exemplified oil the Davton lane, district 24. From a morass in some placsa, a swamp in others, and a bog gen erally, this mail has been transformed ill to a handsomely finished drive. Its bow like center, its gently sloping sides and well opened ditches not only give this thoroughiure an attractive ap]>earauce. but prove superior engineering ability in Mr. Earhart when guiding his ponderous but must effective grader. I'liis district is superintended by Mr. J. Reid, who in spite ot the deplorable condition ol the road, notwithstanding much opposition, considerable private egotism ami uujusti liable proceedings, nevertheless achieved quite a success ill his work, and is very deserving of credit. The contributions so generously promised by the citizens ol Me ihiitivilh’ may now lie given w ithout any tear, and still more generously for the graveling of this much used and most important highway. While this road was being improved, much opposition was encountered, as has lieeu stated—op position that gave rise to at least the fol lowing questions 1st. Who has the ] h > w er to prevent the road superintendent from discharging his duty according to his judgment, and command him to de sist from w hat he thinks should be done’ 2d, lias any private individual the right to usurp anv claim upon any portion of the public road and order the upervisor not to touch this or that place, though within the road limits, yd, Should tile common opinion of the community lie ies]>eetvd ill judging of a needed im- provement and ill Its decision as to a source of danger and damage, for the clamoringot any private person?

You are told so often by so many advertisers that they are sell ing shoes “worth so and so,” for “this and that”—ever so much below what it is claimed they are worth, that you come to think it an easy matter to sell shoes for less than they are worth. BUT IT ISN’T. As a rule we must pay the makers of good shoes a good price, and we must make a profit or go out of busi- ness. If you want good shoes you must pay our price.
