the city banks on his own motion. The

phase he passed to the poll tax system
and argued in fOrcible language for its

reason for the poor roads in this state at
present is owing to the inadeeuacy of

Senator Wood SAYS, in communica-

to show how the present system has
proven wasteful and inefficient in util-
izing labor and money provided, and
advocated more competent and ener-
getic supervision.
He approved of adopting a cash basis
and doing away with this miserable
pretense Of working out the road taxi
In referring to the utility of good
roads from a financial standpoint, he
said: "Nothing will tend more strongly
to enhance the value of all kinds Of
properties in the state than good roads.
Every mans farm will be worth far
more to him when he has fine, hard,
even highway to his market town over
which he can haul full load In wet
weather as we'll as dry, In the spring as
we'll as the fall. And life under these
circumstances will be worth far more to
himself and family than where he Is cut
off from the rest of the world by bOg-
holes, sloughs and impossible stretches
of road. Nothing speaks more loudly
as to the thrift, intelligence and pro-
gressiveness of community than the
kind of roads they have"
In conclusion the speaker urged pru'
dence and deliberation i'll attempting to
prosecute this work. He said that eli.
matte conditions, density of population,
ETC., must be taken into consideration.

He then read the cOst-of making mac
adamized roads at Victoria. showing the
process, which he said could be built
there from $1,000 to $1,000 per mile.
Minnesota had, he said. a permanent
school fund of $10,000,00O, aud would
soon have one of $50, 100000. 1--WE have
borrowed nearly all we have of laws
and nearly everything else" he eX
claimed. 1--WE have been to Australia,
originally penal colony, for our cleo
ton law. 1t is high time we originated
something for other states to copy"
This brought out II. S. Fairchild in
spirited speech in opposition. He in
sisted that in New Jersey it costs $4,000
a mill for macadam, and argued that
this being true. it would cost $4,000
here.
Mr.. Hagen, of Mcleod. suggested
that convict labor be employed in re-
pairing highways, as in other states.
This, he felt sure, would materially les
sen the expense. Thus the discussion
was continued at great length.
DR.. Jackson. of Rice aeOunty: Mr..
Hits, of Carver; Mr.. Tallman, of Chi
sage. and others participated.
This was followed by E. j. HodgSon,
of st. Paul, in a paper upon "The lime
pOrtance Of Wagon Roads and Statd
Association" in which he compares
the relative Importance of wagon road
and railroads, there being 100000 miles
of the former in the state and only 5000
miles of the latter.
Mr.. Hodgson referred to the wonder
full progress that has been made in lat
ter years in transportation. etc. I'm

cecesSity to use the very best tools and
instruments for the accomplishment of
human purposes that can be obtained.
The farmer who would use the
old Mccormick or Nanny reaper,
built thirty years ago, simply
because he could get it for one-half or
one-quarter the price of the elegant and
almost perfect self-binder that is built
today, wouldS be utterly unable to COM

used on the farm, from pitchfork to

wonderfully improved by the present
generation, and farmers seem to be
alive to the advantages thus offered
them, and they look for the best. But
the wagon roads. which he uses prob
ably more than any other piece of ma
chinery in his business, and which are
really more essential to his comfort and
convenience and facility for prosecuting
his business than anyt hing else, have
been left wholly to his care, control and
