STATE AID FOR ROADS.
TWENTY-FIVE States now Aiding Local
Districts in Building Roads.

One-half of the states of the
Union have recognized the fact that
good roads are a matter of state
wide Importance, not of local signi-
flcance entirely, and are aiding the
counties and country districts to
construct good permanent high
ways. The states pay various per-
centages of the cost of building the
roads, ranging from one-quarter in
Ohio to three-quarters in Massachu-
Setts' Connecticut and Pennsylvania,
and all roads built in this way are
built under the supervision of the
states five million dollars of states
money in aiding in road building
in 1905.
This principle of state aid has
been recognized in Europe for many
years, and the effect is seen in the
almost perfect systems OF roads
which exist in many countries. 1t
remained for New Jersey to start
the ball rolling on this side of the
Atlantic in 1892, and since that time
there are twenty-five states that
have adopted the same policy. These
are New Jersey, Massachusetts,
Vermont, Connecticut, New York,
Delaware, Maryland, North Caro-
lima, Maine, Rhode Island, New
Hampshire, Pennsylvania, Ohio,
Michigan, Illinois, iowa, Minnesota,
Colorado, Waship gton, Idaho, Utah
and California.
Although Wisconsin is entirely
surrounded by states that are Civ
ing money to aid in building per-
manent country roads, it is doing
nothing IN this line itself. and ap-
pears to be considerably behind it's
neighbors. This state has had
handicap in the shape of a consti-
tutional provision, which was de-
signed to prevent the state from
running itself in debt to help build
railroads, forbidding the appropria-
ton of money for internal improve
ments. This was a wise act at that
time, but has been outgrown. The
last legislature passed an act to
amend the constitution so as to per-
NIT the state to aid in road building.
This must pass the next legislature
and then be favorably voted on by
the people before it can take effect.
In the mean time the State GeolOgi-
cal Survey is collecting information
regarding the roads to find out what
is most needed in the way Of state
aid.
When the constitution is changed
so that the state can appropriate
money to aid road building Wiscon-
SIN will be in an exceptionally fortu-
nate position. On account of the
new railroad tax the state income
will be large enough to pay it's
regular running expenses and what
ever is needed for roads without be.
ing obliged to levy a general state
tax.
