To do this we have encouraged trans
continental railways, and during the
Civil War the chief argument for lib
eral grants Of public lands in aid Of
railway construction, was the necessity
Of the nation to facilitate transporta-
tion. and to open up the unexplored
region Of our extended domain, and
to induce the settlement of the vacant
lands The states themselves could not
do this. Their resources were insult
feient. All in all the nation voted
away a free gift Of 97,OOO,OOO of pub
lie lands. Whole empires, towns and
cities have grown up, the waste places
have been settled, the mineral wealth
has been explored, and population has
reached the most inaccessible places.
The cost on government freight was re-
dueed from $3.50 per ton to $35.
Aid to Arid Lands.
To further develope the more in
traetable regions still remaining of the
public domain, and for which the rev.
enues of the states in which they are
situated, are utterly insufficient, the
nation has entered upon the policy of
the arid lands, and to this
md has provided that all the net sales
II the public lands shall constitute a
reserve fund to be expended for stor.
age of the waste waters, and their util-
ization in irrigating the arid lands
where practicable. During the present
year this fund, it is estimated, will
reach the enormous sum of $23,000,000

Of the republic In national eo-opeRation
with states and counties in good roads
construction. One hundred years of
experience has demonstrated that the
expense Of such construction and main
tenanee exceeds the revenues Of many
Of the state governments. Many of
them are too poor, and do not possess
the taxable resources and population.
In the state Of New York, it is true,
that tax Of one mill would produce
sufficient fund to construct all its
roads, but in Oregon, South Carolina
and most Of the other states, il cannot
be done.
Government Interest in Good Roads.
Then, again, the general government
should cooperate because of the inter
est it has in all the highways. Many
of the roads are interstate, over which
the commercial traffic of the whole
country passes, and where a single
state cannot regulate continuous
roadway, while still others are mail
routes, over which the United States
mails pass, and in many rural districts
this conveyance, especially in the in
'lement season, does more TO wear and
tear the wagon track than all other
raffie. More than all, the nation, in
lime Of war, must use the roadways in
he movement of troops and munitions

oads win depend the celebrity, certain

TRAFFIC PARALYZED
IN NEW YORK


NEW YORK, Sept. f5.-The storm
or wind and rain, Of almost unpreced'
cnted violence which ragged over this
vicinity last night and today caused
much damage to property both on sea
and land. SO far as known no lives
are lost. Two fishing schooners are
ashore at Coney Island point and
many small crafts are lying on the
beach along the shore. In this city
and suburbs hundreds OF windows
were broken and torrents of rain
fell filling cellars and turning streets
into rivers. At four O'Clock this morn
ing the wind was blowing eighty
miles an hour and the rain was com
ing down in sheets. All street cars
and elevated service are paralyzed,
In the market section of the city wa
CONS were overturned and horses
hurled from their feet Soon after
daybreak the rain ceased and the
clouds cleared away.
