The New Road Tax Law.

Some of the most important con
ditions of the bill which was en-
acted into law by the last legisla-
ture are as follows:
The town board of each town
shall have full supervision, manage
ment and control of the making and
repairing of all roads of the town,
and may make the repairs by hire or
contract, and for that purpose may
annually appoint competent per.
son or persons to sUperintend the
making and repairing Of all roads,
who shall hold his position for Il
term of three years, and he shall
have the same powers aud perform
the same duties over the highways
of town as the overseers now do
over the districts.
1t shall be lawful for the town
board, at any Tins after the road
taxes in any year shall be ordered to
be assessed and before the same is
collected, to pledge the credit Of the
town for a loan or loans Of any sum
of money, not exceeding in all four.
tifths on so much of such tax as
shall be assessed, to be by them ex.
pended in paying the expense OF
such making and repairing of the
roads of said town for the current
year; and the road tax for that year,
when collected, shall be first applied
to repay such loans, and 30 much
thereof as shall not be needed for
such payment shall be used by said
town board in paying the expenses
Of making and repairing the roads.
All road taxes must be paid in
money. The town may vote to pay
the taxes in labor, but before such a
vote can be taken certain conditions
must be complied with, and even il
the town does so vote, the labor
must be performed under the super
vision Of a competent road superin.
tendent for the whole town, who
holds his office for three years, and
at such time in the year and at
such a place in the town az the road
superintendent, or the town board
may direct. There will, tits thought,
be little inducement under this act
for men to vote to pay their road
taxes in labor, and in case they do,
the town will get an honest days
work done under competent super
vision
The road district and road over,
seer system is abolished.

SENATOR PERKINS ANTI-SILVER
SPEECH.

Senator Perkins succeeded in getting on
both sides of the present question upon
which he has spoken in the Senate. He
says that he is sincere believer in the
use and coinage of both gold and silver,
and in the same 0reat! demands the repeal
OF the silver purchasing clause of the Sher-
man act. Ii is true that he proposes to
accompany repeal with eelaration that
il is the purpose of the United States to
maintain its currency system on the double
standard. but he proposes 10 vote Tor re-
peal without any assurance that such a
declaration will be made. Admitting that
the Sherman act has not accomplished
what was expected of 1t, and that it is not
the ultimate Of legislation in favor of silver.
the fact remains that it is all that stands
between the country and the complete
establishment of the gold standard. This
is both the theory and condition which
confronts a Senator when lie votes on the
repeal bill. No one can for moment
suppose that Mr.. Cleveland will sign a bill
more favorable TO silver than that which il
is proposed TO repeal. Why then should a
professed friend of silver help the admin
isiration TO remove the Last obstacle IN the
way of the complete establishment OF the
gold standard?
