I should jodga.from what they aay that the road that is now being bail* wfll neter stand our «inters and the frost in this country, especially in that locality. People who have not summered and wintered here and Jnven over that road do not know aad appreciate the nature; of the soil and the effect of frost npoo % ». ; - Many hundred dollars have been spent by the two towns drawing stone and \ gravel on that road to make it paaeable in the spring when the frost is coming out. Also many hundred dollars hare been spent in ditching in the endeavcr to dram the water off the road in the spring when the SEOW melts. There is* a large territory o n which the waters in the oprin^ from melting snow drain towards tbe north and the road naturally stops tbe ti w of the water and neoeseitates ditches along the sides and slmoee. In many places the wateris» foot deep or more at times in the middle of the road and stays so for sereral days. Weeks after the other roads ate settled and dry this road to Bingor is like a bowl of jelly and will shake when driven over. There is not only asoot here aad there of this character, but there am hundreds' 3 of them. Tbe soil ia of such a character 4 S3 t» retai- the moisture for a long while and the freezmgei^s^ ¥ a.«»- heave,and the people are cf the opiaioJi that the present road is not baUtUt such a way as to withstand the conditions that are pres- ent here every spring. I doubt very much if the road as now built would not all break upin the spring when the frost comes oat. The people are anxious in regard to this riece of road for th^ reason that should the road prove a failure and the frost heave it and break it up lathe spring, oar board of supervisors would never consent to another piece -of State road. The traffic between: Malone and Bacgor is very great. There are several large towns and * iitrge, forralng country and lumber and shingle mills which draw all their traffic over that road to Malone. Therefore, i t should be built in 9u<-h a way as to static! the heavy traffic as well as the frosts in tbe clay sab soil. The peoole are only of one opinion, and that u that the road from Malone to Ban- gor most be built in such a way that it ^ w.i stand, and stand a good many years, or else the road improvement i n franklin county will be stopped. Every one that has been in to see me says that it would be better to pay more and get a road that UOUM last and stand, than to let it go as it now is being boiltand baveit breakup when the frost comes cut next spring* The supervisors have suggested the calling of a tprcial meeting- of the board to take action in the matter, Many of the eiti- zens have suggested the same thing and have urged the calling of a public meet- ing to discuss tbejoatter and take some action in regard to it. I have not personally given my atten- tion to the matter further than to talk with these people and do not know and v * - .. : investigated what coarse could be pursued, bat you can rest assured that public sentiment is being aroused and t tut -tometbing will be done very quickly, as the people are of one opinion and that is that tbe road work better atop at once an J save the money that is now going into it than to allow it to be wasted by building a pie crust on top of clay BOH that will all g\ to pieces inside of a year or two, and have their money wasted and tbe road probably worse than at the present\ time. if you will take op the matter yon will tin! that tbe people here will do whit- \•r «s best. They will have a meeting of t '•- board of supervisors or a meeting of ti.\ people and the^board of superySora, or • be citizens of Malone and Bangor, or v>u -an send somebody here to talk with th- people, bat whatever thing is done ' r whatever course is pursned*, yds can r~t assured that the tax payers in •-' - ounty will do aoroethlng »ery soon. I am also informed that, there, are ^tivtches of day *cM m tbe Fort Cov- ;Q^ton road that is practically to the --aiue condition as the\ Bangor road. -If yon cannot come here or send %, rep- r—»• ntative to personally investigate the condition, a committee of citii^n* and • •jf-rviaors will be glad to go to Albany and meet yon in the office and discosa the tbe matter.

The season i>as been a good one for the ooetraotors. When they bid on roads last year they -^ured the cost of matemlhigh and^tke w iges of laborers was estimated at from * rs to |3 00 a day. Owing to the falling ff in bqilding and public work the con- • rarturs have bses able to set all the ma- '-nals cecesaary and ttoy can pick their ^jreraat $1.5«aday. • Under each cir- u instances it would seem that an effort •- mid. be made to give sorae considera- -<m to the permaaeace of the roads being -j.it .

Dr. Daisy Van Dyke narrowly escaped serious injury on Tuesday morning through the carelessness of a colored ser- vant girl who waa driving a rig belong- ing to Francis F. Powers. The Van Dyke carriage -had. been stopped in front of StcwkweU * Flanagan's clothing store, wh n the colore4 gM .jSrtftti along and locked wheels with the rig, tipping it over and throwing: Mrs. Van Dyke out. Pr. Van Dyke's horse waa also thrown to the ground during the mixup. Very [fortunately no one was injured, and aside from a few scratches the doctor's horse received, he was nose the worse from the encounter. The colored lady kat no time in getting away. Laat Friday afternoon, Marion.the two- years old' daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Eugere McGivney, wbo reside in the settlement known as Number Nine, about four mites.out of this village, found a bottle of carbolic acid in the cellar and: drank of its contents. The chad's cries [attracted the attention of her mother, wbo started tar Malone with the little one as soon as possible, Dr. Grant having been previously telephoned. The child died fiKte. the effects of the poison at tbe borne of Mrs. Jesse W. Holbrook in this village on Saturday afternoon. The baby was playing in tbe cellar when she found the poison, which had probably been [knocked from a shelf overhead. Drs.

Farmers report [the crop to be far below tbe average, though on some farms, where soil oondi- tk»s were faTorahls, an average crop Is reported.
