A GOOD START TOWARD GOOD ROADS

A GOOD START TOWARD GOOD ROADS'
The passage by the Assembly on Wednesday
Of the IIigbie-Armstrong Good Roads Bill, which,
having previously passed the Senate Is now
in the Governors hands. is n gratifying PROOF
of the spread of knowledge concerning one or
the most important conditions OF prosperity.
And it is especially significant that the opposi-
ton though Zcalously represented in the maj
debate. could command only thirty-nnc votes
II Is not necessary to question the sincerity or
rural members who, believing that they I'M
derstand the feeling OF their constituents eX-
pressed the fear that this would prove to he

ii is not easy 10 see on what grounds thcy
denounced 1t as an act of tyranny.
Under the provisions of the bill the amount
expended for highway Improvement in any year
will be strictly limited by the State appropria-
ton, and that will be annually determined ny
the Legislature. This year. with an appropria-
ton Of $4,000 the State tax VIII amount to L
cen. per 81. 900 Of assessed valuation, or 2la
cents on the average $500 farm. If in some
future year the Appropriation should he 100000,
which is twice as much as the most advanced
advocates Of good roads hope for. the state
tax would no - cents on the average S2,3oO
farm. As for county and town taxes, there can
be no county tax except in counties where I'M
provements made, and no town tax except
in towns in which an improved road lies. More

survey and estimate. and then. with the basis
for safe calculation of cost and benefits in
their possession. vote again upon the PROPOSE

prudence, and AT the worst any community
which is dissatisfied can reverse It's policy ut
the next local election Excepting in respect
to the State tax, Of which the cities bear an
Overwhelming proportion, this is essentially n
homc-I7le measure.
Practical operations can be conducted only
on n small scale this year. and this is entirely
in accordance with the wishes Of those who
have been most active in the cause OF highway
Improvement. They are convinced, however.
that they will succeed in making an effective
demon stration of the truth which heretofore
they have been able only TO proclaim. Their
zeal Is unfaggng, and there Is good reason 10
believe that they are not too sanguine.

THE MAYOR on VIEW.

To pair OF delegates from the Borough OK
The Bronx who asked him on Wednesday 10
use his influence TO compel the Manhattan Com
pnny TO extend It's suburban lines. Mayor Van
WICK made the following reply, which we
quote from his organ. The Morning Tele-
graph:
The entire matter seems to rest In the hands
Of the Rapid Transit Commissioners. Ihey nold

asccrtanng what they do except through read
ing the interviews OF the Commissioners MI
Orr gives out one interview to-day. and some
other Commissioner gives out an interview the
next day. The IDEAS Of no two Comrissi9ncrs
seem 10 agree. Under such conditions don
see what I can do about IT, would like to see
the people OF Fordham ard West Farms secure
the railroad accommodations they are entitled
TO. but my hands are tied, and can do nothing
to assist them.
We know little about the mental calibrc Of
Mcssrs. Hottenroth and Niles, to whom the
Mayor made the foregoing statement, but If
they possess the faintcst rudinentary traces or
intellect they must have been strongly tempted
10 tell him that ii the most fantastic mis-
representation of universally known facts
which they had ever come across In the whole
course of their lives. Mayor Van Wych is a
member Of the Rapid Transit Commission, and
none of its meetings can be closed TO him. In
stead OF having 10 Ult"HS vi dNN'l'ulHlhS W 'i"t
It does except through reading the interviews
Of the Commissioners, he has ample means or
ascertainng al first hand everything that IT
does 1t is his duty. moreover, so 10 acquire
that knowledge by attending the meetings Of
the Commission in his capacity as member
Of it-a duty which he has steadily and Of
fcnslvely refused TO perform. He has done
this because as Controller ColeT has formally
though unnecessarily explained Richard Gro
ker does not want TO have the COMMISSIONS
plans carried out. This is the whole eXpana-
ton of his conduct, rs everybody knows No
body here or at Albany. or anywhere else, has
ever made pretcncc of offering any other OK
panalon
And yet Mayor Van Wyck tells couple Of
presumably rational citizens that his only pos
slblc source Of information as 10 the dOinGs
of the Commission is the printed statements
Of the colleagues whorl he takes pleasure In
decorating with his contempt. The present
administration has now been in Office eleven
weeks. and we don't suppose there are as many
as eleven voters who do not understand just
why Mr. Croker forbade Mr.. Van Wyck TO open
his mouth in public during the campaign.
