SEVENTHLY-FUTURE INDEBTEDNESS AMI
INTERNAL IMPROVEMENTS,
The cost of necessary permanent pub
lie improvements should be distributed
over period OF years, and not assessed
entirely upon present taxpayers.
It is the desire and intention of the
Cabinet to make the development of the
internal resources of the country the dis
tinctive feature of the Government
policy.
The Cabinet believe in the proposition
that the condition of the roads of coun
, try is one of the surest induces of it's civi
lization and advancement, and will ust
every endeavor to secure such appropria
tons as will, with econom ical, systemat
ic and continued effort, place the coun
try, in few years, in the front ranks o
those possessing good roads.
Detail plans and estimates of cost o
, numerous public works, including add
tional roads and harbor facilities, ART
now in course of preparation for presen
