6 "a 6 question of road improve
q = ment been so widely and
1Ec enthusiastically discussed
as at the present time. In the crystal
ization of public sentiment for the bet
torment Of u highways, the office OF
Public Road Inquiries, at Washington,
has proven a most important factor.
This work is being accomplished By
collating and disseminating informa-
tion, publishing and distributing lit
erature on the subject. testing road
building materials, and in cooperating
with other allied forces Of construc-
ton of object lesson roads in various
sections of the country. The interest
manifested in this question is by no
means confined to those within the
rural districts, who are supposed to be
the greater benefciaries, but all classes
of our citizens are directly or Indirect
ly interested in this great movement,
and therefore should >be"free to ex-
press their opinions and lend their as
sistance wherever opportunities pre-
sent themselves.
In this age Of enlightenment and
progress all agree that it is necessary
to adopt other and more modern meth
DDS Of improving u highways than
the primitive method Of warning out
the hards"-male citizens between the
ages Of eighteen and forty-ive years
in proximity TO the road to be i'm
proved. This has proven entirely too
effective, especially with the rapidly
increasing population Of the country
and the constantly increasing volume
Of traffic on the road. Were every per-
son liable to duty to work with pick
and shovel a few days annually, as re.
quired by law, but little more could
be accomplished than to fill the worst
chuck holes, and by so doing ease their
conscience and relieve the overseers
of the embarrassment of being in
dicted in the county court. No system
of working roads is a just n if la.
Dor is compelled to bear the entire
burden of the cost and at the same
time property enjoy equal benefits by
its enhancement in value.
AS previously stated, money is the
necessary requisite for the improve
ment of our common highways, but the
perplexing problem with our people
is how to get it," Day by day the
public is becoming more enthusiastic
upon the question as they study it in
its various phases, and are Of the opin.
ion that, as the roads are a benefit to
all, the burden Of cost of their cor.
struction and maintenance should be
born by all. There are various ways
by which this may be done, but like
the accomplishment of all great move.
ments, the cooperation Of all allied
forces is essential. Within the past
few years many States have enacted
laws and appropriated money for the
improvement Of the common roads Of
the country, and many counties have
issued bonds for the same purpose,
with equally good results. Funds for
this purpose have also been raised by
direct taxation and by individual sub
scription, but the limited amount col
lected is generally too small to scarce
