government now accepts what he de
nominated 'sthe blue water principle
namely, that the navy at it's present
strength is capable Of defending Eng
land from Invasion. In accordance with
this principle many Notifications along

THE KIND OF ROAD TO WHICH CONGRESS
| MAN BRoWNLOW OBJECTS
laboring people and the operatives of
industrial concerns would largely de-
crease, if it did not entirely disappear.
| Why and how?
Present road conditions compel farm
ers to rush their products to market as
soon as harvested, when the roads are
at their best, since by waiting a con-
venient time they may not get there at
all because of bad roads. This natu-
rally congests the market, forcing low
prices, to the great detriment Of the
producer and without appreciate ben
etit to the consumer, because the aver
age family in town or city buys only
IN small quantities at one time, saw a
days or a weeks supply. What is the
result?
Inc Spectator, finding prices low
and knowing that in little while the
bad roads season will be on, when COM
peting products will be kept from the
trade centers, buys up the surplus and
stores it away for the day of necessity
when he can demand and receive his
own price for his holdings-the stuff
Tor which men toll, which they are COM
PEELED to have at whatever cost,
And when the citizen In town-the
mechanic and operative of the shops
and factories-is forced in winter and
spring to pay exorbitant prices for
those articles Of household necessity
which went begging for buyers at low
prices the preceding fall he figures the
increased cost of living in comparison
and grows restless and disconnected
and Is easily led into strikes and other
labor disturbances that are SO disas-
trous to the business of the country
and so prolific of other hurtful conse-
Quences. This of course is not all that
enters into strike causes, but 1t con-
tributes full share.
The prices of foodstuffs from the
farm would be always at decent lIy-
ing level to all concerned If the coun-
try had Systematically improved high
ways over which farmers could travel
to market any day in the year. These
farmers would then realize better
prices for their products than they now
do, at less cost for marketing and still
be able to sell to all classes Of consum-
ers at lower prices than are forced by
spectators in the bad roads season.
While 1t is undeniable that the lnfu-
ence of public schools, the press, the
pulpit and other institutions marks the
progress of civilization, yet all these
are more or less dependent upon the
facilities of intercourse between the
people. Good roads through the coun-
try would do much to relieve the con-
gestion of population In great citiess
and thus the social fabric would be
because rural life Is con-
ducive to the highest moral standards,
in crowded city tenements
vice runs riot with it's malign influence.
Bad roads in the United States cost |
the producing people $1,50O000 every
hours. This drain is fear
tul. It is deadening the national life
and is national disgrace. Good roads
develop good people. The wagon roads |
Ire the highways along which civiliza-
ion and development move.
