DR.. Georges Dumas is the author II

instances of saints and mystics Of the
Catholic church whose bodies after

Extravagaut Road Building Proposal.

From The Philadelphia Record.
The Pennsylvania State Grange
at Altoona was entertained by
Mr.. Weeks, of Philadelphia, chair
man of com mlttee CT motorists,
with proposition to amend the
State Constitution so as to pro.
vide for an issue of $50.000,000 in
bonds for good roads. 1t is not
probable that the people of Penn
sylvanla would ratlfy so extrava.
CANT a scheme, even If two sue
cessive Legislatures should be
reckless enough to submit it to
them. With surplus OF nearly
$4,000, 200 in the State Treasury
and revenues constantly pouring
into it, wherein hes the necessity
of borrowing a vast sum of mon
ey for good roads or any other
desirable object? After all that
may be reasonably expended for
State highwaysor township roads
under wise management, the mar
gin of Treasury surplus, with It's
steady accretlons, would remain
much the same.
ltwould be unjust to attribute
to the promoters of this extrava-
CANT scheme design to induce
the people of the Commonwealth
to contract an enormous debt and
pay interest upon 1t IN order thai
the banks may continue to farm
the Treasury surplus at its exist
ing volume without interruption
But such would be the precise Fl
nancial result of the operation
Instead of loan of $50, 1000, ,000
or an expenditure of $1,000, 900
experienced engineers estimate
that Governor Stuarts plan o
rehabDitatlig the historic OLE
turnpike, the shortest route from
Philadelphia to Pittsburg, and al
most entirely free from toll gates
would cost less than $3,000,00O
For the rest, the people OF Penn
syIvanla IN a former gene. atlol
had enough experience Of sucl
State expenditure as is involves
IN this scheme Of an immense loal
for good roads. 1t is not hkei,
that the experience Of the pres
eut generation would differ i
this respect.

He is more intelligent than a

He is never sick but once, and
then he dies. But who ever saw
a dead mule since the war?
He never stops TO fight flies as

From the Philadelphia Press
The Commonwealth never un-

the policy Of road improvement
1t has been engaged In this work
for five years and has construct
ed 525 miles of improved roads,
paving from two thirds to three
fourths of the cost and investing
more than S5,000,000 of State
money, yet there IS a general
dlscontent with the result. This
has been shown strongly at the
convention of the State Grange,
at Altoona, and the dlssatisfac.
ton If the farmers is only an
echo of the general sense of dis.
appointment with the working
out of the States beuefcent poll
cy of mprovins the public roads.
The trouble is that the State
bas not proceeded on any system.
Its road improvement has been
determined by local requests
from here and there and it's work
has been patchwork, widely sep.
arated, giving the State good
roads in spots and these not the
most important spots. If the
State money is to go into roads
it ought tC go into the main roads
and not be sunk altogether IN OBJ
scure secondary township roads.
One of the State Grange resolu
tlons advocates State roads be-
tween county seats. This pro
poses a rational policy which il
> perslstently pursued will give us
in the end a system of State roads
connecting all county seats ant
making continuous highways
