Shall the Last Remaining Toll gate Go;

Stretching for four miles through the
town of Winhall, from the town line Of
Manchester, and extending one mile into
the town of Peru. is the last remaining
toll road in the state II not in all New
England.
1t is the connecting thoroughfare be-
tween the west side and the White Noun
tains, and before the advent of the rail-
roads, was the most important route
across the range between the New York
and the New Hampshire sides. and was
the route taken by Gen. Stark In his
famous march to the battlefield at Ben
nington.
Its summit is over POO feet above sea
level, and the view there Obtained is
classed by many who have traversed both
continents. as unexcelled in beauty and
sublimity. AS one climbs the grade from
the west suddenly. without n note Of
warning, the whole broad valley OF the
headwaters of the West river breaks upon
his view, a wide circular basin, many
miles in extent, entirely surrounded by
mountains. and covered TO n large ex-
tent with heavy forests.
Upon the right looms old Stratton in
its isolated grandeur, rlvallng Equinox as
to its height. To the left is Bromley. one
OF the highest in the Green mountain
range. Far to the east is the Tip of Mon
| adnock, While far away. over the
lesser range, are the SUBMITS of
SOihO VI TIC peaks. II
is the great scenic route between the
Saratoga and Manchester watering places
| and the White Mountains.
The road is in good condition, easily
| kept, and remarkably free from bridges
The bare expense OF collecting the tolls,
| alone, has been nearly sufficient for its
maintenance. Furthermore, 1t is the only
serviceable road between three of the
east side towns and their county seat
and is a main stage route line.
A strong movement is afoot to have the
state free all the remaining toll bridges
and reimburse the towns who have al
ready freed their bridges. If this is done
why should not the same principle apply
to the last remaining toll road in the
state? If not, why not?
