THE MORE GOOD ROADS THE MERRIER.

Yesterday's TIMES carried the news that the Miller town board is

preparing to start a movement which is expected to result m getting a

road linking Miller and Chesterton. This is one of the most important moves that the people of Miller have ever made for the proposed high

way will tap a territory that Is singularly free from roads.

It Is proposed to use the old Detroit-Chicago stage coach trail. En

gineers say that this path, which has been iq, disuse for nearly a half century, will make an excellent road bed.' With a good road bed to start

with half the work is done.

Tonight' the Miller trustees confer with the town boards of Porter and Chesterton and the three bodies expect to ask the assistance of the Porter county commissioners. There ,1s no doubt but that the people of northern Porter county will favor the plan, for they are all eager to have highway communication with Gary. Every dollar Invested In the new road

Is going to bring ten In return.

Montreal, Aug. 10. In all the busy hum of the campalfn throughout the Dominion which Is to determine the makeup of the next Parliament, there Is no busier man than Sir Wilfred Uurler, the Canadian premier. Upon the sentiment of the next Parliament at Ottawa depends the fate of the reciprocity pact with the United States, and Sir Wilfred is the Canadian champion of reciprocity, just as President Taft is its champion In the States. Right now the premier is stumping

through his own province of Queotic,

from which he has promised a full quota of supporters. He had announced that he would retire from politics at

the end of the Parliament Just dis-

responsible for the disgraceful condition of Sheffield avenue. The county

commissioners place the blame upon the viewers, W. P. Bridge, George Fish

er and the third man whose name could not be learned. Others blame

the city officials. ;

Additional facts are that while the city did not approve of the county

-building the road, the injunction proceedings were brought against the

body.

This paper does not pretend to be an authority on the legal phases of road building. ,It does know to a dead certainty that Sheffield avenue is

a disgrace to the city of Hammond and the county of Lake.

WOMAN who twice knocked her

If the city administration has been absolved from all blame; so much loudly cheered by a host of onlookers

the better. It will aid materially in distinctly localizing the responsibility

If the county commssioners are to blame the onus is upon them and

they, not the ofilcials, must account to the 30,000 people in this locality

for a deplorable condition.

The county commissioners appoint viewers and It is the duty of the

viewers to determine the character of the paving and pro-rate the assessments. However the acts of the viewers are subject to the apprpval of

the commisBioners.

CENTRAL MARKET IDEA.

The wonderful progress made by the city arket idea in cities where

it has been tried, and in none of them has it been anything but a success,

should be a great encouragement to those who want to see the central mar

ket plan adopted in Lake county cities. The Milwaukee Press says: "The Des Moines experiment which has excited such widespread interest is a vindication of the policy repeatedly urged by the Free Press of establishing some central market place in each city where venders can be encouraged to display their wares, farmers and truck growers of the vicinity offering their own product for sale. Such an experiment in Milwaukee would demand some central location, though should It prove a success, it would not be long "before each of the divisions of the city would have one established.

The indispensable feature is the encouragement of the grower to dispose ofj

his own produce, by providing him with a permanent and convenient place to do It and leaving the rest to his own energy and address. We have al"ways been of the opinion that at such a market sales would be brisk, and that they would lead to the placing. of regular orders for country produce, and the experience of Des Moines tends to confirm It."

SOME UNITED PRESS DOPE

The following dispatch, printed last night in a Gary newspaper using

the United Press, exhibits a great degree of illumination. It reads: Washington, Aug. 10. Signor Falconio, papal delegate In Washington today gave out the appointment of two new bishops. The Rt. Rev. Joseph Scrambs will be the first bishop of Toledo and Bishop" J. Kean is elevated to Arch Bishop of Cheyene, Wyoming. In the first place Monsignor is probably meant. Falconio is an arch

bishop and to address him as "Signor" would be about as proper if one was to-refer to the Archbishop of Canterbury as "Mister." The Rt. Rev. Scramba name should have been spelled Rt. Rev. Schrembs. There is to be ho "Arch Bistiop" of Cheyenne. But Bishop Keane is to be archbiBhop of Dubuque and

the word archbishop is never split in so atrocious manner as "Arch Bishop,'

nor is his name spelled Kean, but Keane?
