GOOD ROADS
How TLrlfty Illinois Farmers Mako
and Malnliiln Thorn.
In alate number of /'. £me*j ( 'rop Bulle
tin we find an article on good roads
■which contains a )elt«r from Mr. Phil
brick of Yv astern springs, detailing their
mothod ot making good country roads.
From this we take a portion which will
be of interest here.
The letter is of a practical nature and
shows what the farmers are beginning to
ilu:
"In my conversation with you last
Weak in regard to the improvement of
highways 1 made mention of the fuel
that in tho township where 1 live the
Highway Commissioners were making
Borne improvements In the country roa.i.s.
"The Burners, as well as the merchants I
and others residing in the township, are I
in sympathy with the movement and are ■
not only willing to have the improve- '
menu madi . bat vote to pay their uro- !
portion of the tax levy necessary to mako i
some improvements each year. At pros- ;
ent this township has about eight miles
ol good macadamised roads outside of
village and corporation lines,and it is tho
intention of adiiing to this each year
nntil ail ol the roads in the township :
Lave been improved. The usual levy for
t..,->se improvements, and v hich the Com
missioners have power to levy, i- six
mills on the doliar, but last year tho
jeopie voted to iucrea.se the tax to ten
mills. This tax its levied against all prop- I
erf.- in the township; properly in cities |
and villages pays its proportion accord- j
ing to -valuation.
"In addition to the tax levy, the Com
missioners usual.\ succeeded in getting :
the county to bear one-third of the cost of j
each improvement. Tho highways are 1
usually improved sixteen feet wide; but
some of the leading or more traveled
roads are made twenty feet. In making
the improvement the road is lirst graded, I
ditched and roiled; the ditches ai the
■re so made as to carry all wai r
away, leaving no ponds of water along
the sides of the highway to soak into ami j
soften the roadbed. After the roadbed
has been brought to a uniform orowned
service and rolled, the coarse macadam is i
upon the sub-grade: then on this
is placed liner broken stone and rolled,
after which line gravel or screenings of
the broken stone is placed on top and
rolled alter being wet down, i his makes
a compact and smooth mad surface, lhe
usual cost or contract price per rod for the
above improvement is from ?s to Jl°,
ling upon tho amount of grading
and distance required to haul the stone.
"When the lirst roads were being im
proved there was considerable objection
made by some people on account of such
a large expenditure of money being
made. They thought it a waste of money
to expend from $2,500 to #3,000 for a mile
Of highway. liut now the people, '
farmers and all, seem to have changed
their views and are in a hurry to improve
all the highways, and the more they im
prove the more they want to Improve,
and oven it each one cannot have "his ;
highway" first, he is willing to helpim-l
.r.e by one until in a few years all ]
ids in Lyons township will be!
macadamized. If the farmers through
out the Stale only knew mor.- about such
improvements and could see even one
half of the benefits they would actually!
derive, and could be made to understand j
how small a tax it is necessary to levy to
improve two or three miles each year in
each township, I believe it would bo only
S few years until all the roads in the
►State would be macadamized."
DROPPED DEAD.
A >Yell-Known Citizen of Hocklln
Konud in tbe street.
James Dobbas, a well-known citizen of
Rocklin, and who has many aoqnaint
ances in this city, dropped dead last night
while walking iv the stroet there. The
first knowledge of his death was gained
by :i lady who stumbled over his dead
bi dy In the dark. Assistance was sum
1, but to no effect. The cause of
his death iajsuppoaed to be heart] disease.

RAID ON A GAME.
Hay Gambollors Ilavo a Tussle With
*<>me Officers.
There was quitoa llurry of excitement
In and about the Western Hotel on Satur
day afternoon, caused by the descent of
Deputy sheriff Bridley on a game of
some sort conducted in the rear of the
saloon.
It appears that one A. J. Smith, a fre
-1 quenter of the game and a supposed friend
: of the men who conduct it, had been pre
vailed on by Sheriff O'Neil to give Deputy
j Bradley warning when to appear. liy
means of a third person liradlev was
given the signal, but when he reached the
door loading to the club-room he was not
allowed to enter.
While Bradley was waiting for help
to get in. Smith was inside trying to get
j out. finally, w lien Deputy Johnson ar
, rived. William iJell ordered the doors
; thrown o] eu, but the deputies found only
;• couple of persons connected with tho
; premises and Smith.
About tiiis time Hell went for the latter,
and iiad it not been for William Land,
proprietor ol the hotel, and Deputy Brad
ley Smith would have hau cause to wish
he wen- elsewhere. Bradley then gave
, him a pistol, to bo used it ra.se be got
; int.) farther trouble, but none occurred.
Smith afterward claimed that certain
"evidence" oj the game which be had
put in h:s po :ket bad been abstracted
daring the meiee.
i -No arrests were made, but Harry
Ketchum ami Chris. Rasmnason, learn
ii!'.' that warrants had been issued lor
! their arrest, went to the police station and
j gave themselves ui>.
RAILROAD STATION ROBBED.
The iMVtSvtlle Agent Held Up and
ForiM-d to magOTne.
About 2 o'clock Saturday morning the
I railroad ticket office at Davisville was
1 visited by a masked robber, who covered
I the operator, McCurdy, with a revolver
I and compelled him to givo up what
i money lie had on hand, some (33.
The robber also took lour railroad
■ tickets to San Francisco, and then disap
iin the darkness. He threatened
| to kill McCurdy if he made any attempt
i to follow him.
Mrc urdy was compelled to accompany
the nigbwayman several hundred yards
down the railroad, so that the latter had a
good start by the time the operator got
, back to town and gave the alarm.
-MeCurdy at once telegraphed tho facts
■. of the occurrence to Superintendent
I Wright in this city, and officers were at
ones dispatched on tho trail of the robber.
i A posse ot I>avisville citizens also armed
themselves and set out after him.
i McCnrdy describes th«i rob uer as being
| about 25 years of age, bight, 5 fret 8j or 9
: inches, and of about 165 pounds weight.
He had blue eyes and was light com
plexioned.

A SPOILED ITEM.
| Tho Gory Corpse DM Not Materialize
as \\ -.in Expected.
About half-past ten last night a tele
phone message was received at tho police
station nuking Unit an officer be sent im
| mediately to Sixth and V streets, as there
was a troinendous right going on at
Maurice Coreoran's and it was feared
that a man had been murdered. Captain
Simmons and Officer Lowell went to tho
scene, but were informed by tho residents
of tho house that everything was all right
and nobody was hurt, so they returned
without making any arrests.
Some of the neighbors, however, re
ported that there was a great smashing of
dishes and furniture, and that a heavy
body was thrown down a number of
times, a man's voice exclaiming each
time, "I'll teach you how to doit,'" but as
no one ventured into the house, it seem
ing to be a family row-, H was not known
I how affairs really stood.
BOLD ROBBERY.
Three Men Garroto TV. H. MeCarty In
Broad Dayllcht.
W. H. MeCarty went to the Police Sta
tion yesterday afternoon and announced
that ne had been robbed of 815 by three
men who asked him to come into a lum
ber yard at Front and <^ stroets to help

when ho acceded to their proposition,
garroted him and relieved tho stringency
jof their financial allairs by putting his
silver into circulation.
Special Officer Goods went with him
j and found the meu "blowing in" the
money in a saloon not far away from tho
j scene of the robbery. He arrested them
and they gave the names of Tom Wil
liams, James Clark and Tom Campbell.

Borne Opinions Expressed by Califor
nia Newspaper*.
Tulare llegiater: Canneries In tho
northern part of the State are getting
money with whi.-h to carry oo their busi
ness and the outlook for fruit interests
has brightened within tho past Few days.
Sacramento Valley fruit will be banned
instead of being piled upon an already
glutted uiaaket in San Francisco.
Woodland Democrat: People are not!
to be deceived by the vindictive and
malicious assaults of the San Francisco
in upon the State Board of Equali
zation. The purpose is to intimidate the
members so thai they may I-.-derelict in
their duty in equalizing county a
nients. San Francisco has not paid its
just proportion of taxes for years, ami
its inadequate assessment has always
lounda ready defender in the Bulletin,
and for obvious reasons. In attempting
to justify i'.s vicious assault, too liutlctin
assumes that tho board will raise the San
Francisco assessment and alleges that
'since the system of equalization began,
■ this county has been robbed, because of
the imbecility or worse of its representa
tive in the State board, of immense sums
of money. The assessment is, and al
ways has boon, relatively higher than in
tho interior cities and towns, and largely
so." There is not a single class of prop
erty upon which the assessment is not
j relatively higher in the interior of the
state than it is in San Francisco.
Woodland Mail: The "parity" (what
ever that word means; between coyote
and rabbit ears seems as difficult as be
tween gold and silver. In San Bernar
dino County the Supervisors have in
creased the bounty on rabbits to 20 cents.
because the |5 on coyotes increased the
rabbit pest 111 proportion to the decrease
ot coyotes. Verily the relative degree of
nuisance 'twixtcoyotes and rabbits grows
into financial significance.
Los Angeles Express: It has long been
known that the tobacco plant nourishes
well 111 most parts ot California. Speci
mens ol it may bo seen in many locali
ties. Bat up to this time little attention
I has been paid to it as a practical tield
! crop. Its culture and curing call fora
i good deal of labor, and tho relatively
, high cost of labor iii this State has been
S one ol the reasons why tho plant has not
received much attention from our fann
ers. Cotton has been little grown in Cal
ifornia, for the same reason. But the low
price to whieii wheat has fallen is indue
; :n^ many of our farmers to turn their at
tention to other crops, and it is not un
; likely that tobacco will gray in favor.
There seems to be no good reason why
this should not become a tobacco produc
ing Stato.

Warden Anil Treating His Prisoners
to I-onits of Frnlr.
[From Saturday's Telegraph.]
Thousands of pounds of peaches anil
plums arts going u> waste in this vi.inity.
Several camping outfits passed through
tliis place ou Sunday last. All of them
I were mado no of Sacramento people.
: Tho Carson Creak liunters have been
having good luck with doves out there
and say they are plentiful.
On Saturday tho puckers and pickers
finished their work on the Aull pear crop.
About 2<>U,ooO pounds of fruit was sent
i. isl by Captain Aull.
A groat many Folsomites are now in
the mountains, others le.'t this week, and
several more are making preparations to
go tor periods varying from one week to
a month.
The convicts at the prison have been
enjoying prolty good faro of late. Fruit
is one of the things that is not usually on
their bill of fare, and is indeed a luxury
to them. Warden Aull manages to give
them a treat in the fruit line during tho
summer, however. This month he has
been furnishing them with pears, and
j during the weok he has sent out several
■ wagon leads from his orchard. Tho fruit
is stowed or baked, and the convicts all
relish it, and are, eager to got it. It takes
a good many wagon loads to furnish
: enough fruit for 700 convict*, and about
50,000 pounds will have beon .sent out
there by this evening. Tho pears were
furnished gratuitously to luo prisouers
' by Captain Aull.

-Plants- of White Hop Pickers.
I The call of A. Mcnke for white men to
pick hops has brought him more appli

At least so states a man who came in

that about 200 men applied yesterday
ami in all several hundred more. Even
if the other hop-growers employ white
; men, there are, ho says, enough now iv
