The proposition to work iho
county roads with juil prisoner* con-
victed of misdemeanors at cms worthy
of public attention. The city i*
hardly Ich* interested than the coun-
ty in having good county road*,
especially near the city, for not only
do mauy of our citUcus use them,
but upon their condition tlcpcuil* the
cheap anil quick delivery of the lar-
ger part of what we live on. With
better road* we tan have better ami
cheaper moat*, vegetables, fruit*,
milk and butter i cheaper hay ami
corn for our stock, lea* near upon
every city uugnn or carriage that
goes into the country, liesiilcs, the
people of any city have a direct in-
terest in the building up of the
country immediately around it.
t he market gardener* around
Chicago maintain many hundred* of
the busiucsa houses of that city. 1
suspect that llu.iNMl expended au-
utiully by the city of Louisville in
keeping up good road* extending.
*ay. live miles from the city limits
would yield benelils to the city live
liuie* greater in proportion than any
*uui we could expend upon any rail-
road. And yet the lienellts from rail-
road* arc *o great that we have wise-
ly expended mauy millions iu creating
them, ll may be said that the coun-
try *liould build il* own roads.
*' I tut many cities llnd it to their
own iutercst to build railroad* into
counties the people of which do not
contribute u dollar toward building
them. May it not likewise be to the
interest of |.oui*villc lo develop, by-
road*. the country around her, even
if the country people do not see the
importance of il V
"ttui couu.y roads arc now work-
ed by the people who live near them.
If they should tie worked bv the Jail
prisoners there would be no inter-
ference with our city working men.
On the contrary, il would ouly bene-
fit them by giving them more and
belter uud cheaper food. A* it is
lite prisoners are useless, cooped up
and being diseased. To work such
as arc able bodied would be belter
for them and a great gain to both
country and city."
BiSMARK'S EN0HM0US CAPACITY.
Not in the Way of Statesmanihip,
but for Beer and Tobacco.
in the course of a dinner parly at
hio house in Naples recently, Minis-
ter Crispi gave hi* guests a little
Nketch of the lir*t evening of his last
visit iu Kriedrichsruhe. " At the
beginuiug of our conversation," he
said. " llisiuarck had two immense
mugs of beer brought to ua. lie
took ouc of theui aud shoved the
other over to me. 1 remarked that
1 drank only water, lie looked at
me iu silence, curiously aud almost
suspiciously for a minute, anil then
proceeded with the subject under dis-
cussion. The more interested he
became in our conversation the more
frequently and copiously lie drank.
After liui*hiug his own tuug he ap-
propriated mine without a word aud
put down it* contents in three or four
tremendous draughts. Then he had
a servant fetch and lill two enormous
pipes. When lie offered mc one of
theui 1 explained that 1 never smoked.
What!' he cried, 'neither dtiuk nor
smoke? What Kind of a *upcriia
lural man are you, any way Y It. wa*
a mercy to both of ua, however, that
1 did not accept the pipe, for llis-
iuarck smoked so incessantly that
within fifteen minutes the room wa*
dense. After he had linished his
own pipe he helped himself to the
one that 1 hril refused anil smoked
it out wilh/fflUiuuding energy. Wheu
I ro*«' at (4ie end of the evening
from the table at which we were Hit-
ting, the smoke wo* so thick that 1
could" hardly see the Chancellor's
face."
The publication of Cri*pi's story
by the German dailies has caused the
appearance of a new crop of anecdotes
concerning Hismarck's proverbial
abilliy to consume vast quantities of
liquor and tobacco. Ilismarck got
his education in drinking and mok-
ing when a corps student in tinltin-
gen. " Oottingen fashion" lias
always beeu hi* favorite plirtse iu
dcscribiug any particularly artistic
fesi ai the punch bowl or beer keg.
Ill relating how he once dedicated a
new driuking-cup for the cuirassier*
at llrandenburg. he said:
" I was to drink out'of it flr*t and
thcu send it around. It held about
a quart, I held my breath, drank out
to the very last drop aud Ihed set
the cup down empty. They were" -
greatly surprised, for they did not
expect such feats from men of letters.
Hut it was tiottiugeu fashion.
I remember, too," said the
how at auolhcr time at
to travel ou, ll taken care of. Kvery
stranger travelling over the roads
pronounces llietu the best iu the slate.
outside of cities, and if Fayette
county had funds to keep the work
up it would not lie many years until
ail tlie lirst-clsss roads at least were
in a good travelling condition all
the year round.
