THE PUBLIC ROADS IN NATIONAL FORESTS
Department of Agriculture to Co-0perate In an Important
 Work in View.

The office of Public Roads of the Department of Agriculture is to coop crate with the Forest Service in draw ing up plans for comprehensive sys- tems of iroads and trails on National Forests.
 For the last two years Congress has provided funds for permanent improve ments on National Forests, and large part of the money thus made available has been and is being used for roads and trail building. The amount is too small, however, in comparison with the total area of the Forests, to make pos sible more than very small begin ging With thicker settlement and Increasing use of the Forests, good roads will become more and more a crying necessity.
 The object of securing the help of the Office of Good Roads is to make the work take the line that will not merely serve temporary convenience, but also count for most in the end. By building each year with reference to a carefully worked-out plan the dan ger of indirected effort will be escap- ed
 During the present summer an engin- ger of the Office of Roads will go over the ground on several of the Forests. and draw up plans which will be sub mitted to the Forester, and will serve tc guide subsequent work. Where the roads planned for cannot be built trails will, so far as possible, be made to follow the courses laid out, with the expectation that later they will be converted into roads.
 The roads, trails, telephone lines and tire lines already constructed on Ma donal Forests are proving of great value both in the work of fire protec- ti0n and in serving the convenience of the public. The further this work can be carried the greater will be the usefulness of the Forests to the sur rounding regions.

 The law requires that this none! be expended upon public roads anC schools by the counties which cOntalT national forest land. In this way thC counties are compensated for the re auction of taxable area brought abou | by the existence of the forests.

To DENVER
BY BUBBLE

Chicago. June 26.-Four touring
automobiles, loaded with Illinois
delegates to the Denver Democratic
convention, with a baggage car to
bring up the rear. will constitute
the queer caravan which will leave
Chicago tomorrow for the mile
high" city. Roger G. Sullivan, ma
tional Democratic committeeman
from Illinois. is the originator and
promoter of the scheme.
The trip will be made by easy
stages, as on account of the numer-
Gus receptions which will be plan
ned at the different towns through
which the train will pass tbs going
will average about 1875 to $50 miles
a day.
One OF the most important stops
will be made at Lincoln, Neb., the
home of w. ]. Bryan, the heir APP
parent to the Democratic nomina-
ton, who will hold reception for
the visiting delegates. After leav-

quently passing through Cedar
Rapids, Des Moines and Council
BLUFFS, Iowa. thence to Omaha,
Neb., and. after a brief stay in
Lincoln, will proceed to Denver
over a route to be selected later.
Tickets for the trip were issued
on the same plan as those used I'm
railroad travelling, and the fare is
Identical with that charged by the
standard railways to the delegates
who prefer travelling by Iail. These
tickets will be cOuntersigned by
the mayors of the various towns
through which the delegates pass.
This is the first time in the his
tory of American transportation
that automobiles have been utilized
