Justice to the people who live in the
country, saying that it was n we'll
known fact that the people in the
country, while paying their full share
of county, State and Federal taxes,
receive as a rule only the general bene-
fits of government, while the people in
the cities have. in addition to the pro-
lection afforded. the advantage arising
from the expenditure Of public money
in their midst. But this does not apply
to the improvement Of highways. The
city streets are constructed at the cost
of the locality. The trouble with the
country districts has often been q d.!
tinct disinclination. as was shown in
the reduction of the local proportion
of payment under the recently enacted
Sproul act in this State, to do any
thing to improve the roads. And 1t
must not be forgotten that the cities
will pay IL large proportion of the &c.
&c., 900 to be expended under that act
in improving highways wholly outside
the city limits.
The good roads movement is to be
encouraged, not upon the theory that
it will benefit n class Of the COM
munity or another. but because it will
be to the advantage Of the whole peo-
ple. whether residents of the rural or
urban misunderstanding Dispatch.

rate, inclosed in a much-soiled but
sound old leather case, which he car
ried in an inside pocket of his waist.

1t amused Fairfax to encourage the
man in his raptures over the beauti-
full stone cross; and. like any other
man with a hobby. Vasseur was de-
lighted to find an appreciative lis
tener, while he e%xpatiated on the
merits of his property; but when
Fairfax demanded the gems history,
its owner suddenly became confused
for q moment and had some trouble to
resume his air OF half-iaunty indifer-
ence.
OF course, this was not surprising;
it only led Fairfax to suspect that
there was a good deal Of truth in the
rumor about Vasseur's ~antecedents.
The man said that he bought the cross
in Seville; but Fairfax thought he saw
that it was not a very clear lie that he
was telling.
That night something happened
which caused Vasseur's jewels, and
especially the amethyst cross, to enter
as an important factor into the body
of our story.

vvSv HEN Colonel Brownlow,
IA Of Tennessee, Introduced
v v a bill in Congress appro-
priating S2O,000,000 us a
fund for National aid to road i'm
provement in the United States, 4
good many people were startled at the
size of the figures. The amount. how
ever, seems very small compared with
the sum that a single State now pro-
poses to raise and spend. The New
York Legislature has adopted Il con-
%stitutional amendment proposing to
raise and spend S5,0OO,000 annually
for ten years. or S50,00O,000 in all.
This amendment must pass the Legis-
lature again in 1905, and then it will
20 before the people for ratification or
rejection. 1t can reasonably be eX-
pected that the measure Will meet with
popular favor. The people Of New
York have given the principle of State
aid a thorough trial and the results
have been highly satisfactory.
One Of the objections most loudly
urged against botL State and National
aid is that it will encourage local COM.
munities to neglect the improvement
Of their roads and depend on the State
and the Federal Government to do the
work for them. But this objection has
proven to be purely imaginary. In no
place where State aid has been applied
has any such result appeared. On the
contrary, aid from the State treasury
only stimulates self help. 1t arouscs
warm competition among the counties
and townships to secure a share OF the
State aid funds. Instead Of sitting
down and folding their hands as pre-
dicted. the local communities are rails
ing 4 great deal more money under the
stimulus Of State aid than they did
before.
4 very important advantage that
comes from State aid is intelligent su.
pervision in laying out roads, select
ing materials, and in methods Of con-
struction. This. may mean all the diff
ference between success and failure.
Every year millions Of the peoples
h%ard-earned dollars are wasted, virtu-
ally thrown away, in fruitless at
tempts to patch up bad roads, to fill
mud holes, and to improve roads with
unnecessary steep grades. all because
there is no one in charge with the
knowledge, judgment and authority to
do the work as 1t ought to be done.
What is said Of the advantages of
State aid applies all the more forciDly
to National aid. Its effect will be far
reaching. 1t will quicken the pulse OF
the whole nation. 1t will arouse uni
versal activity. Good Roads" Will
become the peoples watchword
throughout the length and breadth OF
the land. A quarter of a century OF
work under National and State aid
should give the United States the best
system Of roads in the world, instead
of almost the worst, as at present.
It looks o rs If National aid Is
bound to come in the near future.
Already the State Legislatures of Ala
bama, Tennessee, Wisconsin, New
Mexico, Missouri and Minnesota have
put themselves on record in its favor.
