Up north people have ' ~ motored thousands of miies over maca- - dam roads surfaced with asphalt and saving In Good Roads. Tests recently conducted by A. B.

Tires that have gore 3,000 miles are almost like new. Therefore from experience we can endorse this ar- ticle, St. Croix made a big mistake in sav- ing dollars when they turned down that cement rcad that Govarnor Oman want- ed to construct from Christiansted to Frederiksted. It is fizurad motor ecar owners in all would have saived $i2,000 per year in tire, 2as and d2preci tiop expense. KED. ST. CROIX AVIs. TELEGRAMS. . 81 CRUIXS ATION. Paris, Nov. Hllth.—®rance celebrated its fifth aoniversary of the Arnistie: to- dav with more pomp an i sole naity, but less exubareye2 and greater intensi'y of feeling, tha displayed on any Novem- bar 11th, siace the last shot of the war was heard. The momoantous eventsin Europe, the unrest along tne Rhine, the menace among the common people against the security of Fraaice, in the reactionary mationalists open activities in Germany, and the return to the Reich of one of tie man whom they Rhald re- sponsible for their losses, all tended to make this day, not ope of rejoicing for the people of rane2, bat ona intend-d to show unaltecabie determination tha! the calamities, the end of waica it com- mamorates, shail not agzain be visited upon hem. London, Nov. 10:th.—Mr. David Llyyd George flat pudiation of proteciion has undoubtedly disappointed many Cornser- vatives who, forgetting or ignoring the ex-Premier’s previous declarations in favour of free trade, notabiy the speech he made at Manchester last April, and nursed the hope that his visit to Canala would influeuce him, at any rate, in fa- vour of imp-rial preference. The Hop2s of those who desire a veuaion of the two factions of the Liberal Party have been raised to a h:gh point by the ex Premier’s utterances and tone efforts they havae late- ly been-: making to induce the Labour- ites to eff 2ct a d=al with the Liberals, so as to defeat protectionism at the poils will be intensitied forthwith, Poiitieal cynies will prebably doarive amusement at the suzgestion brought for vard by the Corservative press today, that in view of the troun 2s n and concerning Ger- many, Mr. Dbaldwin may decide that this is not the tirne to plunge Great Britain into the turmoul of a general election. The Mornicg Post, strongly conserva- tive and pro-tariff. features this idea, asserting that th2 ‘‘condition of Ger- many bas in roduced a complication, for if the foreizy outiobk does not becoale' less ominous, the Pramiec perhaps may feel oblized (o defer dissoulition.”’ The Upposition vill surely seize upon this and similar statements a3 hints that in
