Two propositions have been advanced
by State Rord Commissioner Hutchinson
which will not be entirely appreciated by
not feel like approving the road between
Lumberton and Medford because it will
be feeder to a turnpike. This seems
like very light reason. The proposed
road is an important one, and completes a
link that will connect many arteries. The
benefit it will be to the turnpike with
which it will connect is extremely doubt
full. The heavy teams which will come
such an extent as to make it very ex-
pensive piece of property, and if the
State Commissioner desires the abandon
ment of turnpikes he could not get bet
ter method in this instance, as the
road would soon be cut to pieces. The
other decision by the Commissioner is
that all roads hereafter built must be
fourteen feet wide. This may be all right
or desirable in this county We have
several good roads not over ten feet wide
and they seem to answer all practical
purposes. The idea of the Commissioner
appears to be to give ample room for heavy
teams to pass. but the number of times
when such contingency arises is few
and far between, and it is a very unrea-
sonable and impolite driver of light
team who will not give the entire road to
a loaded team. Again, the original road
surface left on either side of stone road
is a great benefit to owners of driving
horses Often the stone roads are in such
shape that it is more desirable to use the
dirt roads, and with the present widths
this is easily done. We see no reason
whatever for the introduction of Mr..
Hutchinson's new order in this county,
and it is sincerely hoped that he will ad-
here to his original idea to grant those
roads already approved by his predeces-
sor, and give them to us without amend
ment. Especially is it desired that he
allow the road from Lumberton to Med
ford to be proceeded with.
