What Bad Roads Cost the Country.

The board of trade in Tennessee
town, in u recent memorial 10 the l.egisla-
ture demonstrated that had roads were cost
ing the people of that commonwealth more
than seven million dollars annually. Fro
tessor W. W, Carson of the University of
Tennessee, after careful investigation found
the average cost OF hauling TO the Knox
vile market by wagon to be 81 80 per ton
--aggrcgsting one-and-a-quarter millions n
wear on the total tonnage haulcd. He
maintained that this hauling could have
been done for half the sum over good
dirt roads and for one-sixth of
it over good Macadam roads, saw
ing a million dollars annually. Pro-
fessor Richard T.. Ely, of the Johns Hop
kins University and secretary of the Amer
Jean Economic Association, affirmed that
poor roads cost this country over twenty
dollars horse. and Profcs sor jerks, of
Knox College, Illinois, thinks fifteen dol
lars horse n low estimate for this loss.
Mr. Hord, a former commissioner of agrl-
culture for the state of Tennessee, cstima-
ted the number of horses. mules and asses
in that state, in 1889, at i76 900. The nunI-
Der has increased since his estimate, bat
taking this number and the lowest estima-
ted loss per horse, say fifteen dollars.

A PECULIAR ERROR
Worlds Fair Dedication and Columbus DAY
Come Nine Days Apart.

BusroN, July An Interesting quest
ion has risen regarding the observance of
Columbus Day. There is peculiar de-
crepancy between the two Congressional
acts relating to the celebration. The act
of Congress of April %, 1890 named Octo-
Der 18th AS the date for the dedication of
the Worlds Exposition grounds at Chicago
The movement for the popular celebration
of Columbus Day to be led by the
public schools, received Congressional
recognition, and the President
was authorized TO issue Il proclamation
recommending the suitable observance by
public schools in all localities, of the tooth
anniversary of Americas discovery on Oc-
tober 2lst, which is the correct late of the
Grtgorian calendar now in use. 1t was the
plan of the originators of the popular cele-
hration that the Chicago dedication and
school exercises BE- simultaneously held,
but unless the lhicago date is corrected by
Congress to conform to the date of the pop
ular observance, it viii he a two-headed
celebration.
