The Value of Good Roads.
IFrOn Harpsr's Weekly. ]

Colonel Francis VintoD Green has
recently delivered an address on the
subject of good roads in the Butter
field Practical Course at Union Col
lege. In the course of his remarks
he showed that while Massachusetts
annually expends 500 a mile on roads
outside of cities, New Jersey, $43, and
New York, $50, the average expen-
diture in the other states is much
less. If it is only $1S mile, this
means total annual expenditure
throughout the country Of 500, ,000,-
600. and much the larger part of this
vast sum is literally thrown away
on roads that are not only the cause
of vexation and discomfort to those
who drive over them, but that entail
actual loss upon those who are COM
PEELED to carry their goods over them
to the market or to the railway sta
tions.
The enormous drain made by bad
roads on our resources was estimated
by Colone Green, and his figures will
not b doubted by any one who has
paid any attention to the subject. He
said: 1T has been proved, not only
by mechanical experiment but by
actual test, that the sameIforce which
draws one ton on a muddy earth road
will draw four tons on hard Maca-
dam road. On the improved roads
of New Jersey loads of four to five
tons are habitually drawn by two
horse team. This effects saving of
fully three-fourths of the cost of
hauling to the station, and reduces
the cost of road transportation from.
30 cents to y cents per ton per mile.
What this saving amounts to may bea
imagined when it is known that the
New York Central Railroad carries
nearly 20,000,000 tons of way freight
in year. If this is hauled only two
miles by road, to or from the station,
and a saving of 229 cents per ton per
mile could be effected, it would mean
total saving of $4,000, 900"
In other words, the question of
roads in many of our agricultural
communities is question of farming
at a loss or at profit. And there is
not community or town in the
thickly settled parts of the country
that cannot provide itself with
thoroughly good highways by antici-
pating its road taxes for fifteen or
twenty years. Money borrowed on
fifteen or twenty year bonds, to be
paid off from the annual road taxes,
would be sufficient for the work in
each locality, while the expenditure
would involve little, if any, increased
taxation. The plan that is here sug-
gested has, been tried in towns near
New York, and it is noticeable that
every good piece of road that has
been constructed in these communi-
ties increases the sentiment in favor
Of spending money in this way.

THE friends of silver are equally the
friends Of gold and are the only true
bi-metallists. They favor the free
coinage of both metals upon the same
terms, without any discrimination in
favor of one against the othes. 1t is
often falsely stated by the gold papers
that the silver men Favor silver mon
ometallism, but the facts are, there
is not newspaper or legislator advo-
eating anything of the kind. All who
oppose the free coinage of silver are
not bi-metallists in any sense, and the
claim to be such is fraudulent and
false. Bi-metallists are making nc
experiment but simply desire the res
toration of silver to its historic
position as primary money. By de-
stroying silver as money of ultimate
redemption double duty is put upon
gold which doubles its purchasing
power and causes fall of one-half in
the prices of all commodities. Che

THERE has been some complaint
about peddlers travelling through
the country and doing business with
out licenses. The law says that if a
peddler refuses to show his license
when requested to do so, that that
shall be taken as evidence that he
does not possess a license. A person
who peddles without a license is liable
to a fine Of $50. Forty dollars of the
amount shall go to the school fund Of
the township in which the arrest is
made and $40 to the person who furn-
ishes the information whereby the ar
rest is made.

a reopening of that question. This
