was a parade OF the veterans. Many Of Is

Washington, and gloried in the long line

forms and marched in column with the
men by whose sides they fought for the
flag. But last week the line Of parade
was shortened to less than a mile. This
was done that the physical endurance of
The veterans might not be taxed.

What Our puhlie Roads Cost.

One of the important problems Of 10
cal government everywhere is the main
tenance Of public roads. How this prob
lem has been dealt with throughout the
United States Is shown statistically in a
recent bulletin issued by the Public Road
Office of the Department Of Agriculture,
from which il appears that Of the 2,l5l $50
miles of public roads in this country but
1862 miles were improved-an improved
mileage considerably less than that OF the
railroads. The expenditure on all public
roads in 1904 was $79,771, Az. Of which
nearly $50, 100000 represented the value of
labor contributed by taxpayers in lieu Of
a road tax. In the fiscal year 1So3-04 the
national government expended for deep
ening the waterways over 100000 more
than was spent by all the States, counties,
and townships in the United States for
the construction and maintenance Of all
the public highways and bridges. The
value OF these highways, estimating them
at the valuation OF farm lands in their
vicinity. is $941. .Ss9. .SO6.
Funds for road improvement are pro-
vided by local taxation, BY State aid. or
by the issue Of bonds So far, in but five
States have bonds been sold to procure
funds for road improvement, and in but
thirteen is aid given road improvement by
the State treasury. The bulk Of the cash
outlay on roads, therefore. comes from
local taxation, which ranges from la
