The County Road system.

Governor Roswell P. Flower Of New
York believes that the system of county
road repair and building is superior to
any other. He tells us why in The
North American Review. He thinks it
gives exactly enough local option in road
management, not too much nor too lit
tie. A county board Of road supervisors
In connection with an engineer should
have full charge of all roads in the coun-
ty. They should say which were county
roads and which not. should lay out
new roads and turn others out to be
abandoned, as they saw fit.
The law in New York state already
recognizes the county supervisor system
of road management. Under the boards
jurisdiction fall all roads outside Of in
corporated villages and cities. Road re-
pair is provided for by an appropriation
Of the supervisors out Of the. county
funds. They are the ones who appoint
the expert engineer. In New York the
supervisors term Is three years.
To build new roads or meet extraordi-
nary expenses in repairing old ones the
New York law allows the supervisors tc
borrow monsy and issue county bonds al
rate Of interest not greater than pc,
cent. The main difficulty in the way o.
persuading farmers that this plan is thu
best one will be the apparent greater
cost Of it. The governor has found thai
the money wasted under the present sys
tenn would annually build seven miles O
macadamized roads In every county.

A fourth great tunnel Is to be put I'M
der the Alps, this time at the Simplon
pass. Ever since the time of the first
Napoleon tourists have travelled by dill
gence over the great military road which
he built over the Alps at that point and
have duly admired the engineering ge-
MUS Of the military conqueror. Butnow
the greatest mechanical achievement Of
the greatest general Of the world is to be
brought to naught by the simple, quiet
study and experimenting Of men who
never planned battle and could not do

way tunnel will convey trains direct
" beneath Napoleon's road over the
Simplon pass The old fashioned dill
gence and stage riding has been hunted
down to its last refuge. Travellers will
Cross the Simplon by going under
instead Of over it, less picturesqueTy but
more comfortably and speedily. The
picturesque diligence viii, however, con-
tinue to carry tourists across the noun
tain for five years yet, at the end Of
which time the tunnel will be completed
It will be 12t miles long and will cost
