IN Hungary, where the roads are
state owned, you can ride six miles for
one cent, and since the government
bought the roads, wages have doubled.
Yet the roads pay a yearly revenue to
the government OF S4,OOO,OOO. These
are cold facts and not bold statements.
Paste this little item in your hat, and
whenever short sighted ouack tells
you that national roads would bank
rupt the government pull it on him.
Germany and England also own rail-
road lines and find it to be means of
making revenue, at the same time saw
ing millions of dollars to the PEOPLE at
large. So it is in New Zealand and
various other countries, all working
admirably and satisfactorily. Is there
any republican who will say that this
country is unable to manage institu-

who belong to the republican party are
those who refuse to take reform papers
or read reform literature. The mo-

they In turn become populists.
