It seems that Dan Searfoss resigned as private watchman on June 15th, but of all the people that the Journal man has talked io, only about ten per cent seem to have been aware of the fact. Had there been a night watchman on duty there never would have been three stores broken into Monday night. And this is not the only danger. In case us fire, the blaze could gain very great headway before being discovered. This deficiency should be remedied at once, and if necessary a special session of the town board should be called to arrange for night protection. The foolish quibbling that has been a characteristic of the night watch problem for some time should come to an end. If it is the intention of the town board to economize in the matter of hiring a night watch, a good plan would be to rig up a number of scare crows and stand them in conspicuous places. To further decieve the burglars, the scare crOws could be dressed in police uniforms. Or, the merchants might all take out burglar insurance and then inform the country at large that no night police protection was used in Syra case. The latter ought to be a money-making stunt for the merchants and either plan would be highly profitable to burglars. The majority of the roads entering Syracuse remind one of the roller coasters and figure eights found in amusement places, about the only difference is in the num ber and shortness of the bumps. This article is not intended as censure to anyone individual for we know not whom to blame. The Journal would be glad to receive communications from any one who has a remedy to suggest or a manner by which means could be secured to effect a remedy. Let some advocate of good roads tell Journal readers what can be done. Let us hear from some friend of good roads. Dr. G. O. Smith consented to write an article about the hog cholera the swine’s deadly foe, and any one engaged in the raising of these animals should pay attention to what he says. We have been advised that a number of new cases has broken out south-of Millersburg, and unless great care is taken and the cases reported immediately the cholera will soon spread. Seriously Injured Mrs. Sol Lung, who has been staying with her brother, near Indian Village, since the death of their mother, was very seriously injured last Saturday, while picking cherries. The ladder she was on leaned qgainst the milk house and the rotten shingles giving way precipitated her onto a pile of stones that had been filled into an old weU. She was badly bruised and for a time her injuries were thought' to be fatal, but it is believed now that she will recover. Mr. and Mrs. Merle Harkless of Geehen, visited relatives and friends here, the latter part of last week.
