Good Roads and Good Money.

No, that is not the FIRST problem"
The first is to provide the money

etc. Where is that to come from;
Nowhere clse-of course-but from
he pockets of the people, in the shape
IF taxes. But it is going to be easier
to do this than IT ever was before.
The Legislature-if not at the ad.
journed session, then at the next ses-
sion-will pass a law taxing railroad
franchises, and that probably will en-
able it to reduce State taxes from
forty TO thirty cents on the 500.
We are assured by Mr.. Glass and Mr.

IONS work which they published, that
his can be done, and, as is well known,

when the Legislature reconvenes Gov

his views along that line. In his in.

DO We Want Good Roads?

OF good roads oratory Virginia has
had much; of real, practical work in
road building very little. 1t is money
that makes the mare go, and it is
money that converts bad roads into
good ones.
The State of Virginia now has in her
treasury a surplus Of 100000 or $780,.
600. Some of that might be used 10
encourage road building.
1t is expected that State taxes will
be reduced from forty to thirty cents
on the 500. Some Of this saving
could be applied to the country road
funds, In several counties it is pro.
posed that that shall be done
SO it would seem the times are an
spicious for raising the money to inau
gurate new road system in Virginia
And the way to encourage counties tC
spend more money on their roads is
for the state to contribute something
to every dollar raised ON county ac
count This system is in practice ir
some other States, ana is said 10 work
well; has proved, indeed great in
centiye to taxpayers to agree 70 have
their road taxes increased.
With a surplus in the State treasury
with the promise OF lower State taxes
now Is the time TO make a start in roac
building. And the money eIrd of the
problem is the end at which to begin

Hints About Spring Hats.

Hats this spring promise to be more
rolling in shape than they were in the
winter-the flare of the brim being more
pronounced. The trimming still remains
flat and wide. and much of it is placed
under the brim and well toward the back.
The trimming being so placed naturally
throws the hat more over the face. which
is a good point for summer time. To-
ques and smaller hats have sharply far
