Senator Tillman has at last conde soondod. Ho did not oxplain to tho peo ple, who oleotod him, whoso representa tive ho is and whoso money ho was Charged With helping to squander. When cnllod on directly by authority., which ho could not ignore, ho explains in a contemptuous, slighting way his con nection with tho penitentiary scandals. "This is for your information," ho saya, "but you can make what uso of it you liko." Tho Senator evidently is at paint; to give tho impression that he docs not caro whether tho public is informed of his alleged defence or not. "Tho public bo d-d," what has, tho public todo with such uso of its proporty as a Senator and a statesman chooses to make. Is not tho State his and tho fullness and tho fat ness thereof? Who dares question him? Any man in tho State could alford to take this position hotter (han Senator Tillman. Th080 of us who remember him from 1888 to 1811-1 remember that nothing was to small for him to take hold of in assailing the State Government, nothing was to vilo for bim to insinuate. "Hut that was politics," was it? That ls what his subservient followers and defenders have tho nervo to say, their idea apparently being that a man is justi fied in slandering good men, dofiling justly honored names and deceiving and misleading tho pc ?plo so ho docs it to got a job and some dollars for himself. Wo can easily imagine thc .moors and the leors tho insinuations of rottenness in Denmark with which bon Tillman would have recited this penitentiary story if some of his political opponents or some man .dioso place ho wanted had done what he has done. What are tho facts ? Ile accepted pres ents and favors from a man on whose oflicial conduct he might al any time hayo been required to pass, who was under his supervision and in a measure at least under his control. Did Colonel Neal give things to Tillman as presents and then charge them to him on tho penitentiary books? We can hardly believe that. Or is this another reform wrinkle-give a mail Slate property and then charge it to him to be produced on tho investigation later ? If Senator Tillman had beim the man ho protended to bo and pretended to think others should ho ho would havo cut off his right hand rather than take a dollar of State proporty or accept tho value of a cent from any subordinate, lt was most particularly and imperatively incumbent on him lo bo chaste as tho iciclo that hangs on Diana's temple because ho had been so free and boree with calumnies against others. Tho dif ference between taking a dollar belong ing to another and ton thousand dollars is only thc dilVerci ce between petit and grand larceny. The man who receives a salary from tho Slate-and especially a liberal salary not reduced by reform, has no right to accept the. slightest per quisite in addition. lint tho Senator was careless, perhaps. These things escaped his attention. While ho was chief censor and critic for the stale he did not forgive careless ness ill Others. Me did not roeogni/.e carelessness except, as crime. Ho charged corruption continually. Has anybody forgotten how oagorly he took up and used tho charges of tho unspeakable. Bigham that Hugh Thompson had taken away and used some of the furniture, bolonging to tho Slate. With what judgment ho has judged let him ho judged. Try him by his own rules, mea sure him by tho standards ho set up, weigh bim according to his own words. Ho know ho WM t using Slate property, no matter whether it was a dollar or ten thousand dollars. Ho know, for instance, that if Neal was giving him Stato brick ho had no right to it. If with his salary ho was willing to allow Neal to buy brick, furniture, labor and ot tor things and givo thom to him for tribute, ho is meaner even than ho was thought to be. Tho time will como when lion Tillman will not havo a Jaggery Kvans or a bill Neal to meekly shoulder his sins for him, when ho will have to answer beforo an enlightened public judgment in his own proper poison for his own doings. May it como soon.-A. ll. Williams, in Oroon villo News. O ASTORIA. Beara the /} T? ^ou "av0 ^?*' ??uP.M Nolico to Tcacliors and Trustees. State Superintendent. John J.

If ovor thoro wore two olassoB of pcoplo that had a good oau?b in oom uion they aro tho bioyolists and tho farmers. Tho question on whioh their intorests agree is that of tho need for good roads; tor whilo a hard, smooth surfaoo i? an absolute necessity to the wheolman, it is of even moro vital importance to tho farmer, sooing that tho condition of tho roads makes a sorious difference ono way or tho other in his yearly profits. As tho rosult of an inquiry mado in 1895 by tho United States Department of Agtioulturc, replies wcro received from over 1,200 coun ties giving tho cost of hauling crops in various parts of tho United Stotoa. Tho average load hauled was found to bo 2,002 pounds ; tho nvorago length of haul, 12 1-10 milos ; tho average cost of hauling a ton of crops to markot was $8.02 ; while tho average cost of hauling a ton for a distanco of ono milo was 25 cents. Tn order to compare thc roads of thc United States with thoso of Europe tho bureau, through, its con suls, mado careful inquiry on tho subject of cost of hauling in Eng land, France, Germany, Belgium, Italy and Switzerland. Tho average cost of hauling ono ton ono mile was found to bc in England 10 couts, in Franco 10 cents, in Germany 8?J cents, in Belgium 0.? cents, in Italy 7 A cents, and in Switzerland from 0 to 8 cents, tho avcrago for all thoso European States being 8 0-10 cents per ton per mile. Moro than ono cause may enter into this determina tion of cost, but that the great cost in America is due to our poorly inndo dirt roads is proved by tho fact that while over tho superb roads of Europo a farmer will haul three or four tons at a load, our farmers aro able to haul only a ton or less than a ton over tho "plow and scraper" ridgo of soil which, even at ibis late day, is dignified by tho name of road in many parts of the country. NEW RBOKUIT8 FOB GOOD HOADS. ?'Yes, sir, it is entirely appropriate for a Memorial Day orator to speak an appropriate word in behalf of good roads." Such was thc answer of a farmer when consulted on the subject by a gentleman who was to deliver thc Memorial Day address in a Western village. Continuing, he said : "Why not? The people for miles around here are deeply interested in Memorial Day ceremonies. Some years only a few of us could attend because of the horrible condition of tho roads. Ob such occasions our Memorial Day ceremonies havo been pretty nearly a failure. I was not a soldier, but I bad two brothers who were soldiers, and, like myself, they are farmers, hut I do not believe that they aro more earnest in their hope that Memoral day will bo perpetua ted long after the last soldior has passed away, than myself. I have thought for many years that it was very important that tbeso ceremo nies be continued. They certainly have resulted in good thc past thirty yi?ars ; they certainly can do thc same kind of work for many years to come. I know they will be more largely attended and consequently will do more good if hundreds of thousands of people in the aggregate aro not prevented from attending tbetn because of deep mud that wo sometimes have at that time of year. 1 wish I bad my way about >t. You could depend upon it that every Me morial Day orator, until we get good roads, would put in a plea in their behalf, an earnest one, to the mill ions who assemble on that day and listen to addresses. "I do not understand why it would be out of place for all of the 7,000 or 8,000 posts in tho country to pass resolutions in favor of them. I do not understand why at all of their State gatherings and at tho national gatherings they should not take similar action. They say tho war cost nine or ten billions of dollars.

Among tho famous Indian trad ers of tho past was Qeorgo Galphin, whoso trading station at Silver Bluff, S. C., was frequented by Indians from far and near. In bonoh and bar of South Carolina a oharaoteristio anecdote is related of Mr. Galphin and an Indian obiof. Chief Mogo loeh, from beyond tho Savannah rivor spont tho night at Mr. Galphin's. lu tho morning tho Indian said : "Mo droam last night." "Ab," said Gal phin, "what did my rod bro thor droam?" "Mo dream you gave mo fino big rifle"-in Galphin's possession at tho timo. Tho trader instantly passed tho riflo to tho ohief, saying, "if you dreamed it, you must havo it." Next morning Galphin said to tho ohiof, "I dreamed last night." "What you dream ?" asked Mogo looh. "I droamod you gavo mo tho Chickasaw horse," whioh tho ohiof was thon riding. "If you droam um you must havo um," said tho chief, and tho horse was straightway trans ferred to the trader. Tho noxt morn ing tho Indian remarked, "I droamod last night." "What did my red brother dream ?" was tho inquiry. "I dreamed," answered Mogolooh, "you gavo mo red coat you wear and much calico." "If you dreamed it you muse havo it," said Galphin, and thc Indian received tho red coat and calico. Next morning it was Gal phin's turn. Ile said to thc chief, "I dreamed hint night." "What you dream ?" was Mogoloch's inquiry "I dreamed," replied Galphin, "you gavo mo ten miles of land around thc Ogcechco old town."

One day ho talked in Iiis most earnest manner for several minutes to a young woman who had como to bo married. "And now," he said, in closing, "I hope you fully realize tho extreme importance of thc step you arc tak ing, and that you arc prepared for it." "Prepared ?" she said innocently ; "well, if 1 ain't prepared, I don't know who is.
