Bad Roads Expensive.
Possibly, when the people of any
community, county or state awaken
to a realization of the facta as given
'below by the Saturday Evening Post,
they will arouse themselves to action
which will overcome the enormous
expense of having bad roads Instead
of good ones:
Director Page, of the United State's
Public Roads Office, In analyzing the
findings of the Bureau of Statistic^,
shows that the cost of hauling the
three principal crops?wheat, corn
and cotton?from the farm to the
railway is approximately flfty-six
.million dollars per year. This Is
tfie actual value of the work per
formed under existing conditions,
viz., with ninety-two per cent, of the
roads unimproved.
From the data at hand. Bhowlng
the larger loads and the quicker
time made l>y delivery over good
roads, the calculation shows that
with good roads general throughout
the country the saving In this one
Item of delivery would be ove:*
twenty-flve million dollars per year,
equal to thirty cents per person last
year. The erratic market conditions
and unnecessary expense or ware
housing the grain will add twice as|
much more to the Item of waBte.
There are nnmerpus other directions
in which the burden of Ixid roads ap
plies. It Is conservative to say that
the money loss through bad roads
alone, to say nothing of the ethical,
educational and social burden, Is not
less than one hundred million dol
lars per year, and is probably twice
that sum.
The testimony as to the effect of
good roads on the value of farm
property Is unanimous and over
whelming. It shows conclusively
that every dollar expended upon the
construction of hard roads adds at
lease five dollars to the cash value of
the farms served by them. Good
roads are a permanent asset to the
nation, the State and the farm. As
an economic and sociological question
good roads should be regarded as
paramount. Their influence and
beneflcence will In years to come
permeate the entire social fabric of
our country. Good roads mean edu
cation, civilization.
Why Men Foil.
Eight important and prominent
business men were recently inter
viewed" by a writer for "Success," a
splendid monthly magazine, on the
question "Why Men Fail In Busi
ness?" The magazine printed its
queries as follows:
."Why do nlnety-flve per cent, of
American business men fall Bhort of
success?
"Do the causes lie in outside con
ditions, or In themselves?
"Are the markets available to
United States merchants capable of
supporting only five per cent, of
these merchants?
"Is competition too strong to he
overcome?"
The men who were interviewed
are Mr. Edward B. Hatch, president
of Lord & Taylor; Mr. Henry A.
Haveweyer, president of the Ameri
can Sugar Refining Company; Mr.
?Alexander J. Hemphill, vice-president
of the Guarantee Trust Company and
others, and Mr. Charles H. Steinway,
of the Steinway piano house. Mr.
Stein way's ro.ply was as follows:
"The main cause of failure Is lack
of knowledge. Another common
cause is lack of capital. Many men
do not know their business, and.j
singularly enough, they do not seem
to know their ignorance. A man;
may know one side of a business, and
yet be unfamiliar with another side.
He may be a good manufacturer,
and a poor financier. He may know
his stock, but not know how to sel!
It. lie may know 'how to sell, but
be ignorant of credits. I believe in
partnership in business."
Mr. Stein way's reply reverses the
old adage that n little learning Is a
dangerous thing and In the applica
tion lie makes It Is seen that a lack
of It Is a dangerous thing Tor the
success and prospenty of the busi
ness man. Whl1 ? his application
may not always prove to l>e the rule
It Is nevertheless pertinent In' the
case of a large number of the busi
ness men who do not make a success
of their businesses. Mr. Stelnway's
words ought to help some of these
men out or their difficulties. It
should set a lot of the mediocrities
and plodders and happy-go-luckies to
, thinking about themselves when look
ing over the conditions of their busi
nesses. A little introspection would
doubtless prove to be of great bene
fit not only to their businesses hut
to themselves. The sorry part of It
Is that, as Mr. Stelnway says, a lot
of them do not even realize their
lack of requisite knowledge.
The successful business man Is the
one who goes In to win, not only the
4oM?rs and pennies of the hour or
the day, but for success In the broad
and significant meanings or tbe
term. He goes in to win with ? the
whole of his spirit, and all o( bis en
thusiasm and energy as well as with
his muscular effort. He goes In (or
Workmanship instead of mere work.
To attain workmanship In this sense
he must know 'his business In every
detail and It he does not know it he
sets about with efforts to acquire tbe
necessary knowledge.
A whole lot could be written about
success and the way to attain it
Many business men think they are
successful when theV are not. Many
believe they have acquired all of the
knowledge necessary for tbe attain
ment of wealth and prosperity when
they are very mucn mtstaicen. Some
attach supreme Importance to rudi
mentary Information and a smatter
ing of cant or technioal phrases. The
man who attains success is the man
who knows how; tbe ones who want
to attain success should set about
learning the how of it. All of which
brings us back to the meat of Mr.
S'.elnway's question: What Do You
Know About Your Own Business?"
Think It over.
Timber Owners Organize.
One of the most Important econom
ic movements of the day about which
the general public has yet learned
little is the concerted action of own
ers of timber in different parts of
the country In organizing associa
tions to protect their holdings from
flre. In the Pacific Northwest, the
Washington Forest Fire Association
has jnst elected officers at Seattle and
begun work for the year with 3,000,
000 acres under its care. The
plans include a system of patrol by
rangers resembling the work done
by the United States Forest Service
In guarding against and extngulshing
fires.
Organizations of similar kind and
for a like purpose are at work In
Oregon and Idaho. In the latter
State, a portion of the expense is
borne by taxation and paid from the
State treasury. A western railroad
company which holds large tracts of
timber has taken steps to guard Its
property from fire, and during the
short 'time that Its plans have been
In operation, It has met with most
encouraging success.
Similar work Is being done on the
other side of the continent. Forest
owners in Maine have gone to work
in the same systematic way to control
th forests' great enemy, fire. Like
organizations are found in other
parts of the country, showing how
fully It Is now realized that protec
tion against fire is of the greatest
importance.
It is safe to say that fires in this
country have destroyed more timber
than lumbermen have- cut. When
timber was abundant, the waste pass
ed almost unnoticed, but now that a
scarcity is at hand and an actual
wood famine threatens In the near
future, the owners of forest lands are
waking up and taking action to save
What Is left.
Taft and Presidency.
Tho present campaign for the Re
publican nomination for president is
in large measure a duplication of the
McKinley campaign of twelve years
ago. Then despite the clamor for
favorite sons, the irresistable wave
of personal popularity for McKinley
swept all else aside, and the conven
tion merely ratified a nomination the
people had declard for months prev
ious.
So, too, Scretary Taft need have
lltle fear of political intrigues. The
man behind the gun?the elector?in
city, town and country?has decided
in his own mind that the big war sec
retary must succeed to the presi
dency. That the man who has prov
en himself superior to any and every
task assigned him, isrright material
for tho highest executive office.
The world's history of every day is
read by all, and sO a man who Is a
national figure, his name soon be
comes a household word. Secretary
Taft has been a big contributor In
the world's events the past few years.
The prestige he enjoys over-shadows
all other candidates.
With this, combine and unsullied
character and unfaltering courage. No
nation need fear such leadership.
No reasonable man can see how
tho city couitcll showed the slightest
degree of animus toward the street
superintendent, when it refused to
act at present on the report of the
street committee authorizing the
street superintendent to purchase
several car loads of materials at
once. The ground was taken that
the material in car load lots should
not be bought until after the com
mittees made up the estimates as to
whut work should be done this year
as has been the custom. If such ac
tion was In aiilmus to the street
superintendent the council Is to be
congratulated for It by every citizen
who belleveB In doing business in a
business-like manner Instead of driv
ing the cart before the horse.
All will agree that a generous de
gree of liberality should be given the
street superintendent of the city hut
not to the extent of permitting him
to purchase many car loads of ma
terials before it Is determined toy
council what work shall be done.
This rule has been strictly observed
several years and there is no good
reason to break it now.
Perhaps, tho Democratic papers
and leaders are against the present
tax system because Harrison county
has about four And a half times as
much taxes from the public service
corporations this year as the county
did In 190G. The fifty-nine thousand
dollars nearly this year Is the 1907
tax and the thirteen thousand dol
lars tax received in 1906 was the
' V
?? : : ??: fr
tax of 1905, before tbe law went Itato
effect. What a change In behalf of
the people in only two years!
What Redmanshlp la.
Tbe wonderful progress and popu
larity of the' Improved OrdeAf Red
Men have earned tor it the prominent
positidn it occupies among social and
beneficial fraternities of the United
States, says tbe Tomahawk, official
organ of the order, in Its current Is
sue. There are many causes for its
phenomenal increase in numbers and
I Influence. Tbe order has Intrinsic
| merit as a Boclety which teaches and
exemplifies its principles of friend
ship and brotherly helpfulness. Its
precepts inspire all with_the spirit of
fraternal love and goodfellowshlp
and the 'Divine idea of the Brother
hood of Man. Its teachings tend to
refine the natures of Its members, to
ennoble' their characters, and awaken
their minds to the highest aspira
tions. It especially appeals to the
patriotic sentiments of true American
citisens because of its origin, Its tra
ditions and Its ceremonies. Its es
tablishment In its present form dates
from' 1765-1771. Its Inception was
In the time when It tried men's souls
?the time when our -nation was In
the throes of Its birth, and it was one
of the main factors that gave Im
pulse, form and purpose In that try
ing epoch to tbe determination of the
colonists, and tbe acts growing out
of the determination Insured ultimate
success to those patriots, resulting In
a* flag?"Old Olory," and a Nation?
the United States of America.
Tne Improved Order of Red Men,
as shown In the above. Is a benevo
lent organization, paying sick and
death benefits.
Its object Is to benefit Its members
socially, morally and Intellectually.
In benevolence, this order is un
surpassed in taking oare of its mem
bers.
Founded upon the simple customs
of a private race, the utmost simplic
ity marks Its ceremonies,* and free
dom and equality are exemplified
among all of its members.
The order Is secret, In the sense
that secrecy Is right and proper In
those things which concern the pri
vate Interests of a common family,
and to better and more worthily
carry out the ends set forth.
It is named as It la because, being
purely American, the name of the
aboriginal Inhabitants of the conti
nent who were tawny skinned, was
the first to suggest Itself to the
founder of the order. Its name was
chosen as abovo Indicated, as ex
pressive In the highest degree of the
order's origin, and as peculiarly ap
propriate tc a society which has a
history co-equal with the hlstcry of
the aboriginals of the American con
tinent and the establishment of the
United States.
Its emblems are drawn from na
ture alone, and are symbolized In
every sense by those things upon
which the eye rests when contem
plating the wondrous works of the
Great Spirit whose power end all per
vading presence must be acknowl
edged by all who seek to penetrate
the sacred mysteries of the order.
One who has taken our pledges
and promised to strive to live by our
principles must be industrious and
diligent. A lazy man violates sac
red pledges or tie order, as well an
natural obligations. He must deal
Justly, not with members only, but
with all, for It would be a poor hon
esty which was a policy only. He
must speak plainly to a brother Red
Man, and advise him of anything
touching his fair name. A word In
season is often a man's salvation. His
money must be paid regularly, per
rule, to keep up legitimate expenses,
sick and death benefits. A sincere
desire to advance the interests of the
order must animate all, and a firm
resolve must be evidenced to succor
the distressed, comfort and watch
over the sick and afflicted, bury the
dead, protect the widow and the
orphans, and generally live up to
the cardinal principles of the order.
The amount of benefit paid in case
of sickness or death Is fixed by each
Tribe.
The exipense Incurred In becoming
a member is so small that the man
of moderate means can enjoy the
fruits of the order as well as the rich.
New Tribes can be Instituted In
tills state with a list of twenty pale
faces. The charter fee is $40, which
must accompany the application for
a charter. The Great Sachem, or
the Great Chief of Records will glad
ly furnish any information desired
to persons who will write either or
them for such information. If there
is no Tribe of the order in the town
or city In which you reside get a
list of twenty or more citizens to
join with you and have one instituted.
In the Improved Order of Red
Men Is a wide Held for thought and
work in behalf of humanity. It
teaches upright living, cultivates a
broad manhood, brings men Into
friendly contact, develops the moral
and Intellectual faculties, and hi a
thousand ways educates Jts members
for their world's work and to do
their share for th^ progress of civil
ization. ' ,
There is not a worif in our ritual
istic work that does not belong there.!
I There Is not a thought conveyed that1
ottght not be there. We should
place a valuation on every one of
th'ese and Instill them into the minds
of the candidates In such a manner
that they will know what they have
earned and learned something of
value. This wilt do much toward
putting Redmanshlp on the highest
plane of fratemallsm, a place where
of right It belongs.
Stuart Reed's many friends
throughout the state join the Tele
gram In congratulating him on car
rylng Monongalia county as he did
Saturday. Hit contestants made a
hard flght for themselves and one
newspaper down there waged war
against tym in ' an ? underhand man
ner but he came out victor. It is a
feather ill his cap his supporters are
proud of.
But a very few "male members of
the graduating class of the city
schools used to be the fact, but|
there \re several this year and the
number appears to be increasing as
the years come and go. The Tele
gram is pleased with this. Every
one knows that young men ought to
have brain training before entering
business.
'The Tomahawk, official organ' of
the Great Councils of the Improved
Order of Bed Men and the Degree
of Pocahontas of the Reservation of
West Virginia, is published as a
special souvenir number this month
on the occasion of1 the annual meet
ings of the Qreat Councils of the or
der now being held In -Clarksburg.
The paper is edited and published by
C. K. Chambers, of Martlnsburg, and
the issue' mentioned Is a Bplendld
flfty-two page edition, nicely printed
and contains sketches of leading Red
Men and Daughters of Pocahontas of
West Virginia besides other special
and interesting articles. The edition
Is a credit to the organization and es
pecially so to Mr. Chambers, its en
terprising editor-publisher, who is
numbered among the leading mem

The yeggman's plana to gala his
liberty, it he had any, were foiled,
when the United States marshal
brought him to a Jail that Is safe.
Some time ago a desperate criminal
and a jail breaker was brought here
from Fairmont for safe keeping. Now
one comes from Wood county. Har
rison county is known to have the
best jail in the Btate and is not an
noyed by jail deliveries. In fact, it
never 'has any occasion to be uneasy
about such things.
As yet the Telegram has not heard
of any mass meeting being called, or
any other kind of a meeting, to or
ganize for the purpose of four miles
of good roads leading out of Clarks
burg. The negligence and procrasti
nation Indicate that the Interests con
cerned really do not care Whether
they have good roads or else have
little hope of accomplishing any
thing along that line.
The duty of the public to Itself was
clearly elucidated In Judge Lynch's
charge as to what constitutes good
citizenship and aid to the courts. The
Telegram has but Uttle patience with
men who criticise public officers and
are unwilling themselves to aid the
officers in maintaining law and or
der.
For a band of rfeal Indians, the
Red Men and the Daughters of Poca
hontas behave exceedingly well.
Clarksburg has endeavored to give
the visitors the best of its hospital
ity and judging from the many ex
pressions of appreciation they are
highly pleased with their reception
and entertainment.
The factional fight in the Demo
cratic party in Ohlb gives the Demo
cratic party a chance to be even
more concerned about Itself than it
was anxious to see the Republican
party disrupted by the Foraker fiasco.
The Fairmont West Virginian was
not so very well posted, when It pre
dicted that Cabell county would not
Instruct Its delegates to the state
convenlon. But, then, Fairmont Is
far away from Huntington.
The allies may have all the conso
lation they can get out of the report
they are circulating that they have
Taft beaten, but the returns show
Taft gaining every day. They also
show he is far in the lead.
Judge Lynch's charge did not stir
up the city administration very much,
however much it may have taken
former ones to task. The present
one is quiet, indeed.
Judge Lynch's charge to the grand
Jury set the violators to talking a
good deal as well as thinking of an
exodus to ot'her parts at the earliest
possible date.
The order directing railroad gates
to be erected and maintained here
scarcely created a ripple of excit
ment. Every one acts as if it was
expected.
Rev. aul L. Flanlgan Is here from
Oassaway visiting his family, who

Work Up Interest in
Agriculture.
At a recent meeting of the State
Board of Agriculture, Mr. Charles
Mclntyre, of iChandiersville, O., an
intelligent, progressive agriculturist,
was employed to travel In this state
for a year In behalf of the state's
agricultural Interests. He will visit
lurmers institutes, tne normal
schools and teachers' Institutes. He
will also hold special meetings at
different places wlh reference to hor
ticultural Instruction, and In general,
emphasize In this state the work to
which he has devoted his life.
In view of the fact that elementary
agriculture Is now a part of the
coure of study In our common schools
It was thought well to have Mr. Me
Intyre meet as many teachers as pos
sible and with this end In view Su
perintendent Thomas C. Miller has
outlined a schedule for him at the
normal schools of the state. Within
the month of May he will visit the
normal schools, spending from three
to live days with each, addressing the
student body and calling attention or
the young men and women to the
great opportunities that present them
selves In agriculture pursuits.
Mr. Mclntyre's work will begin at
the Concord nornVl school at Athens
today and from there he will go to
Shepherdstown, Fairmont, West Lib
erty, Glenvllle and Marshall college
In regular order. In the Ohio man
the state has secured a competent,
leader In this work and Superintend
ent Miller Is delighted with the pros
pects of having the West Virginia
teachers meet him this season.

LETTER TO CHAS. W. VAN HOR.V,
Clarksburg, W. Va.
Dear Sir: .. It you sell Devo? to
paint your town, your road won't
have so much freight to handle.
It takes 10 gallons to paint a fair
sized house, and that house - won't
want painting again for 6 or 10 years.
That's true In a way; but people, you
know, rather like fresh paint, and
theypay for nothing but looks some
times.
That house would take 12 or 13
gallons of all moust any other kind of
paint than Devoe, and would have to
be painted again in half that time.
Ten years Is a very long time for a
paint to wear; -and Ave Isn't short
Which makes the most freight, a
10 or 20 gallon paint? C or 10
year paint? But the 10 gallon paint
