When Love Comes.

Ab long as you don’t love anybody much, your character is like a gar* den in winter, one virtue is under a glass shade, and another is coveted over with Straw, and all of them are dreadfully pinched and sickly. Then love comes by and it is summer and !rour garden rejoices and blossoms ike the rose, without your bothering about it at all.—Ellen Thorneycroft Fowler.

BEST ROAD LAWS EVER ENACTED

FEDERAL AND STATE AID WILL BUILD LARGE SYSTEM OF HARD ROADS. The Jasper County Democrat takes a fling at the legislature by saying, '“the late lamented legislature certainly muddled up that body who helped to pass the present abortion.” (This last clause is evidently meant as a lick at our Representative W. L. Wood et al.) Having relieved himself of the above, he goes on to give a very clear and definite statement of what is being attempted in this county and his usual advice is to “knock it out.” We (believe that people, who have helped to build the main improved roads of the county, are entitled to some relief, which they will be able to get under the new county unit law passed by the last legislature. However, the legislature wisely provided that two safeguards should be had against unnecessary expenditures for improving roads. As to the State Highway law, it is as clear as dinner bell and its workins should be as efficient as a Democratic administration’s prosecution of a great . war or its ability to demobilize soldiers.

We give below the principal paragraph from this law and any claim of the Democrat that the members of his party cannot understand it would be adding insult to injury. (Section 12 of the 1919 State highway. The state highway commission shall at the earliest possible moment, proceed to lay out a system of state highways which shall reach each and every county seat of the state and each and every city or town over 5,000 inhabitants; and for the connection of county seats, and cities over 5,000 inhabitants with improved trunk highways of adjoining states and connecting with said trunk highways from other states, whereby said trunk highways of other states and the connecting highways of the state shall become continuous highways. All highways heretofore designated as main market highways by the state highway comtfiissioneT, acting under the act entitled, “An act creating a state highway commission providing for the construction, re-construction, maintenance, repair and control of public highways providing for co-op-eration with the federal government in the construction of rural post roads,” approved March 7, 1917, shall be state highways within the meaning under this act the same as is designated as.state highways under this act. When any part or all of said system shall have been laid out by the state highway commission and shall have been approved by the governor and shall have been filed in the office of the state highway commission, highways of said system shall become and be known under this act as state highways and from that time shall be constructed, reconstructed, repaired and maintained by the state highway commission out of the state highway funds. A state highway within the meaning of this act is a public highway, selected and designated under the provisions of this for construction, repair or maintenance Iby the state highway commission out of funds created by this act. The state highway commission shall have laid out a sumcient mileage of state highways by April 1, 1920, to reach each and every county seat in the state. ,

ELEVATOR IN NEW TANGLE

Matters in connection with the reorganization of the Farmers Elevator company at Francesville seem to have gotten into a muddle. Considerable new stock has been subscribed for the purpose of putting the concern on its feet and buying it from the receiver, but it is now said that some alleged forged notes have turned up to complicate affairs. It seems that some of the directors had biven notes to a Chicago fertilit zer company, and it now charged that additional notes of the same kind were forged by some (person or other, involving a sum of $3,000 or more. Receiver Brucker is advertising the elevator and fixtures for sale, bids to be received next Monday, and there is some talk of an injunction to prevent the newly rejuvenated company from buying it.
