The > lNo Man's" mnu light has been trans ferred from the Held to the courts , and there nil of tie ! battles nrc to bo fought over again. The trouble In this case is of long standing nnd originally grow out of the ownership of torao lands in the vicinity of Florence lake , near this city. The land In question was formed by accretion and joined a school sec tion. The state claimed the land for the benefit of the public schools , while John Htm- snii and a number of other parties claimed possession on account of settlement. There were some men on the inside who EOt the lion's shnro of tlio real estate , while the others hung around the edgoi and cursed their luck. John Hanson , being more fortunate than the others , managed to selzo upon a coodly portion of the washed out soil utul at once converted it into a truck patch , to the great displeasure of his less fortunate neichbors. As tlrao rolled on , Edward Callnhan. William Bennett , Charles 12. Waddell , and Ed ward Uullivan , concluded they would dis- posess Hanson. The case wound its cir cuitous way through the justice courts to the satisfaction of some anil the dissatis faction of others. That was too slow a way to settle matters of the kind anil a sbotzun policy was inaug urated. Ju this Hanson got the worst of tno deal and come out of the frny with his legs filled with bird and cluck shot For several days , under the care ol the doctor , ho re mained in bed , but today ho hied himself to this city and at once brought suit against Callaban , Bennett , Waddell nnd Culliau to recover 510,000 damages. For a founda tion on which to base bis claim , ho allosoa that on March 10 , 1VJ.J , while pur suing the even tenor of his ways , the four moo assaulted , bruised ) nnd boat him.

Lixcoi.y.Nob. , April lO.-To the Editor of Tun Hun : The couvculencics and bonotlcinl consequences which result from n frco ntul o.isy communication between iilfferont parts of n country or district are so various nnd tha aarantnrroa of the same nrc so ceiier.ill.v nnd extensively loll by every description of individuals from tl.o highest to the lowest , that no labor or expense should bo spared in providing them : us without such ready moans of Intercourse , nil sorts of Internal commerce nnd Improvement are olghcr much embarrassed or wholly atn standstill. I'no- llo roads and highways , in their rela tions to the internal commerce nnd agricultural Industries of n country hnvo been Ingeniously compared to the veins nnd nrtorlca of n human body. Through these the blood circulate : ! in every direction und thus keeps nlivo the annual system , but If the circulation 13 by any means checked or obstructed , oven In the remotest part , that part soon becomes useless nnd sinks Into uccay , nnd in some itoprco Is telt throughout the entire body , .lust so , our public roads uro the channels through which How the vital principals ot our commercial and agricultural systems , but , without a fruo nnd uninterrupted communication , It is 1111- possible that these systems can exist , or nt least produce to the community ut largo so inaoy benefits ns they otherwise might have done. ItA \ obvious , therefore , that n proper nnd healthy development of the higher and moro advanced stnte of clvllintion of n country depends in no snuill measure tipnn the condi tion of Its public roads. How many , for ex ample , are the places in almost every coun try that might bo rendered doubly valunblu if the access were practicable nnd ensv. How immense the quantities of the llnust'tlmkcr , perhaps growing in inaccessible woods.whlch on that account nlono uro lost to society. How many the vnlunblo strata of the richest metals and minerals which from the sumo cause llo buried nnd undlslnrbod in the bowels of the earth. How many hundreds of acres of fertile soil that might ho improved and cultivated to the highest degree of per fection. and thus very largely contribute to Increase the food and the comlorts of man , were the ingress nnd egress rendered prac ticable and frco ; nnd last hut not least , thu value of the farms , consequently the richer , perhaps the strength of n country , greatly depends upon an easy nnd uninterrupted com munication by good roads. Good roads , by diminishing tbo cost of carriage , put the rornoto parts of the country mqro nearly upon a level with these in the neighborhood "of a town. They nn , upon that account , the greatest of nil Improve ments. They oncourngo the cultivation of the remote , which inus > t alwavs bo the most extensive citcln of the country. Though tuoy introduce some rival commodities Into the old market , they open many new mar kets to its produce. The Romans were so sensible of this that wo are told they did not think it beneath thu dignity of tbo common wealth to nttoi'd to the convctiicncios from these roads. That great nnd wise people carried on , nt an immcnso expense , ronas from tlio center of the empire to many of the remoter provinces. The readier march of their armies was perhaps their first motive. but the easier intercourse of the several parts of their great empire was another which they had too much prudence and wis dom to overlook. Bcforo the establishment of turnpike roads in England many parts of that kingdom , Ilka tbo highland of Scotland , were scarcely acccssablo. The imperative necessity of bultor highways soon hccamo apparent to ' the English pc'oplc. Today the British Isles are threaded from ono and to the othsr nnd from side to sldo by the well known Macadam and Tclford hard stone roads , and today .ho British Isles stand nt the head of the com mercial world. Upon emerging from the dense darkness of the rniddlo nge ° France immediately tooit steps to repair licr old roads nnd to construct new ones. Today the road system of Franco stands unrivalled. By experiment , nnd by the better light of experience , the English people , the French pcoplo nnd their neighbors nil over the European continent , have learned that true economy in the construction nnd repair of the common roads , ns in the construction and repair of the grout railroads , consist" in the scicntilio making and systematic nialn- tenancoof Ihcso roads according to lixcd ruin * nnd under the direction of on intelli gent head. Where England nnd Franco stood n ccn- turv ago , in icgard to the rend question , the United States stands today. Much us it grates upon American prldo yet we are com pelled to admit thtttour antiquated American road statutes are as much as 100 years nc- hind the times. Measured by every rule of economy , public or private , these common roads of the United Statin uro nut only the vorv worst in the clvlli/ed world , but In labor and money wo nro spending moro to " " of and shiit- carry on a "system" inadequate - loss maintenance than would bostifllcicnt to kcop in proper repair double the length of first class stoua roads under the methods pursued by France , England and other Euro pean states. To the obstacles which may bo Interposed and the objections which may from tiino to time bo urged against the American road re- tormor wn have another answer to make and thnt Is to point you to the place where the high class roads are in use and their man ifold blossing.s self-evident. The road .sys tem of Franco has bcon of far greater value to the country ns n mentis of railing tlio value of lands , nnd of putting thu btnall peas ant proprietors in easy communication witli their markets than have the railways. It Is the opinion of well Informed Frenchman , who have made a practical study of oco- nninlu problom.s that the superb roads of Franco hnvo been ono of the most steady und potent contributions to the material develop ment nnd marvelous financial elasticity of tlio country. The far-reaching nnd splen didly maintained rnad svHtoiu li s distinctly favored the B.ICCOSS of tiio small landed pro prietors , and in their prosperity and the ensuing - suing distribution of wealth lies the key to the secret of tha wonderful financial vitality and solid prosperity of the French nation , The United States needs bettor public roadn. Truly It Is astonishing to note the fact thnt whlto nearly nil the leading coun tries of tlio civilized world stand forth in the full bluzn of mid-day sun , as regards the rend syntems , this enterprising young American republic is still groping in the dark. Our common road system seems to bo the ono thing which has as yet fulled to rcccivo proper attention. But the tlmo hns now como for im awakonlng from this stupid lethargv. Thu shocking condition of our rend system must bo placed before the people and the hand of government di rooted to the reconstruction nnd caring of our main roads. 'I lion will follow an effort nt emulation on the pirt of the local authorities ; branch roadu will bo Improvrdi that abomlnublo system of "forming out" roml taxes will dUuppeur : road bulldinc will recelvo an Impulse anil stimulation thnt will finally tend to the welding together of all tl.o .systems for mu tual bonolll ; und the United States , Instead of bringing up the rear of the procession , will tnko her stand proudly In thu van , with a road system similar to thai of her Euro pean listers. Then , and not until them , cnn she propnrly taku her nlnco nmong ttio na tions. W. Cin : Tuiiruui : M.VIIIS. : DoWitt'sSarsapariilti is roiuhlo.
