ROADS MADE OF STEEL

Since 1888 New Jersey has led all the
States of the Union in road Improvement.
1t has not only expended large sums of
money 10 building highways, but the best
methods have been employed, and the an
nual reports of the Commissioner of Public
Roads, setting forth what has been accom-
plished and offering suggestions for future
work, are among the most interesting docu.
ments TO be found on the subject.
The report for 1895 is particularly engag.
ing, and even those who have followed the
study of improved road methods closely will
be surprised to find recommendations ad.
vanced which promise nothing short Of a
revolution In highway improvement 1t is
proposed 10 50 many words To construct
country roads Of steel, not TO accommodate
cars. but to facilitate the use OF wagons, car
'sisges, and the bicycle,

NO MORE TRIPLE ALLLANUE-NO
MORE COLONIAL GLORY.

Crispi is an old man now, but not in spirit
The flame of ambition burns as brightly
within the half-ruined temple of his mind
as when, young Socialist and Republican,
he laughed at prison and exile. 1t gals him
to quit the field under the shadow of de-
feat under Italian arms so terrible as that OF
Adowa. That gallant young army, on which
his royal master has been led by him to Law.
ish the millions wrung from the patient
peasantry, In disgrace because of crushing
blow by the Abyssinian nation, which boasts
that no living men can subdue 1t. Italy
obliged to begin all over again with the ex
penditure of immense sums, and the rally
ing OF the reserves, and agigantic effort I'm
der which she staggers blindly, like one OF
her own peasant women freighted down
with burdens. II Is perilous hour for the
Southern Bismarck" who has sacrificed
everything-even his own liberal ideas-to
the work of making unified Italy great
figure in modern history
No wonder the people of Rome protest in
the streets that the farce Of military glory
has gone far enough. No wonder the Vene
tians proclaim in the Piazza San Marco
that the unfortunate General Baratieri has
betrayed his country. "Wss it for this" cry
the mothers In the olive orchards "that we
gave our sons 10 Crispi and the King, and
stayed at home to eat straw and fruit par.
ings?" The defeat is ten times more terri
BILE in peasants eyes because OF the awful
sacrifices made to put this army in the field,
No more Triple Alliance, they say. No
more colonial glory. We want food and
the money which we earn by the sweat of
our brows And the swarming Socialists
stand by hooking at the tragedy in which
the imitation of Germany and the German
military craze have involved the country,
and limiting at revolution.
!. Crispi is a son of the hot South, of that
Sciian isle which his ambition has plunged
into misery. 1t is in that land of lava and
OF passion as fierce as molten lava that the
revolution, the mutterings of which can be
already heard, will perchance begin.
Crispi must shrink In alright from the mad
dened criticisms of his countrymen He has
taken their hard earned money and given
them nothing in return but formidable
national disgrace. When they have cried
out he has had them imprisoned. When
they could not pay so per cent taxes they
were driven beyond the sea. Far better
would it have been for him TO have devoted
the revenues furnished him by the industri.
Gus Italian people to their own improve.

Q, 1895, respectively, as by reference to said
petition will more fully appear
The said land is described as follows:

ceived hint from the custom of drivers in
cities, who seek the rails OF the car tracks
for an easy and smooth passage for the
wheels Of their vehicles Applying this
idea and adapting it to country highways,
the problem has been worked out, and may
be briefly described as follows The rails of
the proposed roads are 10 be made OF STEEL
three fourths Of an inch thick, with the
edges turned upward, making a square, per.
pendicular shoulder one.haf inch high. BY
this means "gutter" five inches wide is TO
be formed, and the tracks laid on ties the
proper distance apart TO receive the wheels
of wagons and carriages. Between the ties
and the tracks stone is 10 be filed in, and a
regular Macadam road surface constructed.
Double tracks being provided, traffic in
one direction will run on one side of the
street and vice versa. Horses will be able
to pull much heavier load over the smooth
steel CUTTERS" and carriages will run with
ease. In case one driver wishes 10 pass an.
other he can "turn out" and do so. The

only TO the hoofs of the horses, without the
wearing of the wheels, would be much more
durable, as well us more useful.
Estimates are also provided as to the cost
Of construction. Macamdam and Telford
pike, such as has been built in Union and
Passaic counties, costs $1,000 mile. The
proposed steel roads, with double tracks, six
teen feet wide, with Macadam surface, could
be built for $4,000 mile and rural turn.
pike, with single track, would cost only
$4,000 a mile.
So far as can be seen the recommendation
contained in the official report is quite as
available for city streets as for suburban or
county roads, and the suggestion is vastly
interesting in Baltimore and in the counties
Of Maryland, where street paving and high.
