We suppose the matter ends

Railroad Commission bill came
up for its second reading in the
Senate and was defeated by a
vote of to A week or two

but it was believed the measure
would be killed when it reached

We believe that one of great-
est drawbacks to prosperity in this
is had roads. If the farm-
were to sit down and calculate
the lost to them from
bad roads over which they have to
to market, or
purchases from the nearest
railroad town, they would find that
they above all men should be the
first to bestir themselves to
good roads. Bad roads mean to
agricultural population loss of
time, decrease in value of mar-
products and no
able loss in wear and tear of
and bones. A complete and
good system of roads would be of in-
estimable value to our farming com-
and increase the value of
