twenty years ago that q mixture OF

suggested that interesting experiments

Ir is true that better roads must
cost money. and cause town debts and
higher rates OF taxation. So did the
building OF railroads So years ago
did the old turnpike roads. but both
have shown their value. The improv-
eI facilitie, for travel and fc- the
transportation OF freight proved their
benefit TO those who used them. and
have made them profitable TO the
builders while even those who feel
that rates might be made stii' lower
do not feel willing to abandon .aeir
use. The fact that the turnpikes
pass /. rom the control of private COR
polat. ons into the hands OF the state
or county may not be precedent for
the railroads doing the same but they
arc a good precedent for the state ex-
tending its power so as to take control
OF and improve some OF the most
public thoroughfare which benefit
not only the towns through which
they pass but all the people at either
terminus as well as all along their
line.
