A GOOD ROADS PROPOSITION.

In n communication to the Humboldt
County Republican Mr.. G. l.. Tremaiu
submits the proposition % thirty three
foot highway with a scheme for raising
revenue for road Improvement thru the
disposal OF the extra Two rods. MI.
Tremain has been taking observations
of the northern Iowa roads and has
closely noted what proportion OF the
four rods is used for road
and bitches ON the sides. He finds that
1.-The average of track is less than one
rod, The average of track and bitches IS
less than one and a half rods. the aver
age of waste is two and a half rods, and
the waste or not used portion is the
most unsightly-more than unsighuy-
1t grows up to rank grass and weeds
and retards the needed drying out of
the road Still more. that rank growth
on the unused two and one-half rods
holds back the water close to the road.
and prolongs the wet spell for the road,
a result We are all agreed is undesira-
BILE.
Now suppose" he continues, Eve re-
store to every farm along the highways
one rod on each side of the roads at the
rate of $50 per acre, allowing the owner
so cents an acre for moving his fence.
ii there is one and levying tax of so
cents per year for road purposes for a
term of years. Such tax would
make great improvements on our roads
and 1t would be a comparatively light
burden to the taxpayer. 1t would be
selling land we don't need or use TO
men who owned adjoining land and on
easy terms, and as the landowners saw
how the money was to be used In max
ing permanent good roads, | am OF the
opinion such a proceeding would meet
with little opposition. | am aware OF
the fact that we can not under exist
ing laws do this, but may we not ask
our legislature to give us needed au-
thority? Meantime let every one inter-
ested examine the country roads and
see for himself what a waste of land
we now have in that set out for roads
There is much worthy the considera-
ton OF good roads advocates in Mr.
Tremain's suggestion. It's weak point
appears to lie in the fact that the state
or county has no proprletorship in tbs
land used for highway purposes, bu'
simply a lease for road purposes. The
farmer bought the land and will sell
again when he disposes of his farm

amounts to a confscation of his veste'
rights. and such a confiscation woult
seem to be beyond the authority of tn
legislature.
However, while he holds deed TO
and pays taxes upon the highway con
siguous to his farm the farmer gets n,
