it would be sensible to bond the State OF
New York for $40, 900, 900 for such roads,
when in less than twenty-five years at
the furthest they will have become ira
dition, and the bonds alone would re-
main as memento. A $4,000 mile mac
adamized road would be no better foun-
dation for an electric railway than dirt
road. 1t would not be so good.
1t is possible that against these claims
the advocates Of improved roads may
suggest the storage battery system, and
urge that we may have both improved
roads and electricity. But it has been
observed that wherever the obstruction
of cost-the present obstruction for the
storage battery-throws itself in the
way of electricity it proves to be very
obstinate obstruction. 1t does not look
now as if the storage battery could ever
be more than subsidiary source of
power. Then, again, electric vehicles
could never be driven at the high rate of
speed that would be demanded in the
country except over iron rails.
