even the bondholders should he made 10

that tic Government obligations shall

and silver are coin. the Commercial
thinks the debtor class should have the

ROAD LAWS.

In Chester County, Pa. roads are in
charge of township officers, who are
held responsible for their condition.
Every three years they are divided into
short sections of moi more than half n
mile, and sold At public auction, 10 the
lowest bidder, who is bound by writ
ten contract. the only reservation made
is that the purchaser must be a citizen
of the township, aud must sign the con-
tract. Legal decisions have fixed that
the public have no rights beyond that
of passing over the road ia The ordinary
course of travel, and that the right TO all
grass, fruit, or minerals. remains with
the owner of the farm from which the
land was taken. The owns,ip SUPER
visors have Unlimited control a. TO earth
needed for repairs, and there is no APP
peal from their commands. The benefits
lof this plan are, that the roads are usu-
'aIly bought by some adjacent farmer
