Thursday, May a, i9©>« BRITISH political economists are busily assuring their hearers that the $940,000,000 war budget simply shows how rich they are. IT will be time for the Arkansas trav­ eler to travel when that bill requiring every liquor drinker to take otit a li­ cense before he can secure a drink in that state becomes a law. IT is not a rash guess that the Swedish inventor who has perfected a device that prevents a third person from hear­ ing a conversation over the telephone, most either be engaged or at least in love; • Miss SUSAN B. ANTHONY insists that victory fa(the cause of female suf­ frage is in sighlt, but she must wear very powerful spectacles. Other people cannot see it even with the aid of teles­ copes. ̂ SSSSSSSSSS " CHICAGO'S tifestnewspappre have suc­ ceeded admirably during recent years in driving capital and capitalists from that city, but they are not yet satisfied and always are on the lookout for new victims. , FASHION authorities declare that the masculine shirt waist will be good form for the coming season, and also that it is impossible. When the auto­ crats of fashion thus disagree, how are the men to know what to do? SOME 38,000,000 acres of land are to be thrown open for settlement when the Kiowa and Comanche reservations are opened. Host of the lands are very rich and fertile, but they are not to be compared to McHenry county farms. HONORABLE POLICY IN CHINA The United States has every reason to be gratified with the Chinese policy of the government While the other powers have shown grasping greed, have permitted their soldiers to loot the Flowery Kingdom and in many in­ stances conduct themselves worse than savages our soldiers have been kept well in hand and the administration has done everything possible to pare down the arbitrary demands of the rapacious powers of Europe. . The Boxer movement was the direct result of the greedy and inexcusable ag­ gressions of Britain, Russia, Germany, and Japan. It did not culminate in an attack on the legations until after that bombardment of the Taku forts in which the United States refused to take part because it was an act of open aggression. Finally the relief forces occupied Pekin. What followed is gradually becoming known. Dr. Seaman, a New Yorker, just returned from China, says: "The Chinese were guilty ef outrages upon the legations and foreigners. Yes, but these have been repaid with cruel­ ties that make one's blood rise, atroci­ ties that are unspeakable. In one of the 'punitive expeditions' 12,000 people were slaughtered in one day, every one innocent, every one unaimed. Hun­ dreds of miles of territory have been devastated , and the people's' homes rained." ^ Mr. Wu may well say that China's losses from the aggressions of the powers since last summer are at least double the swollen bill of expenses which the powers threaten to put in. The United States stand apart. So admirable has been our conduct froip diplomacy down to police work that the Chinese government is begging Gen. Chaffee to leave a force of our solders in Pekin because it fears that chaos and atrocity will succeed peace and friend­ liness if the soldiers of any other power axe substituted for ours. Morally and materially we are gaining a great advantage in China. And that because we have in this instance not - sneered at the practice and principles of our fathers as '"back number." from Springfield to the county would make aa aggregate of about III miles. Itis«til||«||ft ibat the coat fltf the roads w3l he |^0 a mile, but with ;he improved methods and nu of the present day this is an excessive estimate. However, at those figures the 200 miles of road would cost $400,000, with an interest cost, the first year, of $12,000. IF only twenty-five years were taken in which to pay the principal, it would require $16,00^a year, but each succeeding year the interest cost would grow less, the average being $6,349 a year. Here, then, is a total of $22,340 a year to be provided for by taxation. It probably will be a revelation to a good many of the farmers of Sanga­ mon county who oppose the construc­ tion of hard roads on the theory that it will make burdensome taxes, when they learn that /or the past two years the taxes in thS county for road and bridge purposes have averaged $50,000; or, to be exact, $10,688.76 in 1899 and $48,393.98 in 1900. They will not be less this year. Hence it will be seen that by issuing bonds for $400,000, on which the total interest cost for twenty-five years would be $156,000, 200 miles of hard roads could be built in Sangamon county next year without any increase in taxation, the annual installment of the principal, viz: $16,000, and the average annual interest, $6,240, be pro­ vided for and $27,760 reserved for re­ pairs, etc., all from an annual taxation of $50,000 the same amount that was collected last year and the year before. But it does not cost $2,000 a mile to build hard roads; bonds could be is­ sued to extend over fifty years instead of only twenty-five, and with a law in force as provided in one of the bills now pending in the legislature, the state would pay half of the cost So it will be seen that when the subject is gone into and pursued from a basis of figures, permanent hard roads can be built without impoverishing taxation, and the botchwork system now in vogue everlastingly relegated to the oblivion where it belongs. Horace Greely said that the way for the gov­ ernment • to resume specie payments was to resume. ThtT way for the peo­ ple to gc$ good roads in this county and state is to begin building them. This is the twentieth century.--Springfield Journal.' _____________ A Very Remarkable Remedy. It is with a good deal of pleasure and satisfaction that I recommend Chamber­ lain 's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy," says Druggist A. W. Sawtelle, of Hartfort, Conn. "A lady customer, seeing the remedy exposed for sale on my shoe case, said to me; 'I really be­ lieve that medicine saved my life the past summer while at the-shore,' and she became so enthusiastic over its merits that I at once made up my mind to re­ commend it in the future. Recently a gentleman came into my store so over­ come with colic pains that he sank at once to the floor. I gave him a dose of this remedy which helped him. I re­ peated the dose and in fifteen minutes he left my store smilingly informing me that he felt as well as ever." Sold by Julia A. Story.

It is an important subject and it may be well to give it further consideration be- fare final action is taken by the legisla­ ture. Everybody would be glad to see good roads existing throughout the state and remaining good during the entire year, but the opposition to any {roposed legislation providiiig for them Is based on the belief that the cost > , would be impoverishing to the farm- •f i ing communities. Very likely much of . this belief is unfounded, but before it ^jCanbe overcome those who entertain convinced Jthat hard road t , Jfonstruction can be entered upon witK- „ * |»ut materially increasing taxation. It is a reasonable proposition that A '•; ;.. when permanent hard roads are built , i |he cost should be distributed through ' !.'» course of years; surely not less than S twenty-five years and to make it fifty * t 4iFears would not be preposterous. The 7 ' , work, when begun, could de done gen­ erally and speedily throughout the i county where it is undertaken, and bonds issued to cover the cost. Taking 'Sangamon county for an example, such ^pbonds, of long tenure, could be floated f $it 3 per cent, perhaps less.
