was much interested in the article headed
"The Road Commission" which appeared
in THE TINES of January 81.
Mr.. Kinnane is very frank to admit that
the success of the proposed scheme to revo-
lutionize the present method of managing
the highways of the country depends upon
something that does not now exist, yet
hardly think it fair for him to assume that
the intelligent agrlculturalists of the coun-
try are incapable of comprehenjing the
things which are for their own best inter-
ests, individually and collectively. l beg
leave to suggest that the experience of the
past has led this people to be suspicious of
all great reform p,ovements. His statement
that the question itself involves the interests
of the farmers especially, to greater ex-
tent than anyone can realize who has only
given the matter casual consideration, l
concede to be correct, and L predict that ii
this question comes before the people, Mr..
Kinnane will discover that the farmers OF
Michigan ale not so completely blind to
their own interests as he has imagined.
His next intimation that the decline of
farm values, the decadence of country life
among the American people and the result
Ing influx of the young people of both sexes
into the cities is due to the condition of our
highways, l think Is with out foundation
either in fact or in theory. When we re-
member that for fifty years we have been
instilling into the minds of our youth the
idea that there is no outlet from agriculture
that leads up to eminence, we shall not be
surprised at what we see.
His next statement, that under the present
system there is no way by which we can
enter upon scheme to improve the main
highways leading to the county seat, sug-
gests to my mind a question-which are
the main highways leading to the county
seat? Let every farmer in Michigan answer
this question for himself, and then If he is
willing to submit his conclusion to county
board of commissioners having arbitrary
power in the matter, he will be prepared to
go to the polls next spring and vote for the
proposed amendment.
Mr.. Kinnane admits, as | had expected,
that some of us are to be left with the man
agement of our little local neighbOrhOod
