FOR STATE ROADS.

uDOub btit piSHtS' VI - ibN w
enable the State to build roads.
Attorney General Straus has
prepared a bill looking to this
end which was described in the
Baltimore Sun of Tuesday 1t
includes provisions for the es-
adjustment of a general system
of modern and improved State
highways, with lateral, tribu-
tary and branch State roads, to
be constructed by the commits
sion created by the act, in con-
nection with all the provisions
and features of the Shoemaker
law for the construction, repair
and extension of county roads
upon the application and initi-
alive of the County Commits
sioners or of citizens of the
counties. In this way a uniform
and homogeneous scheme,
which shall be us perfect as
possible i'll its entirety and de-
veloped practically under one
administrative head, namely,
the commission created by the
act, is secured. BY this plan
the improvement of both State
and local highways and the
general harmony of the whole
system are provided for The
Governor was especially i'm
pressed with this feature Of Mr..
Straus' bill and complimented
it very highly.
The billprovides for a special
commission, To be known as
the maryland Roads Commits
sion, which shall consist OF
nine members, two of whom
shall be Prof. William Bullock
Clark, State Geologist and SUI
perintendent of the Maryland
Geological Survey, and Or. Ed
ward B. Mathews. Assistant
State Geologist, and seven
members to be appointed by
the Governor as follows Two
from the Eastern Shore, one
from the Second Congressional
district, exclusive Of Baltimore
City, and one from each of the
Third, Fourth, Fifth and Sixth
Congressional districts
The bill further provides that
the chief engineer of the new
commission shall be the present
chief engineer of the Division
of Highways of the Maryland
Geological Survey, who is Mr..
Walter w. Crosby The con
stitution of the commission up
on this plan includes the scien-
tific experts, Professor Clark,
DIR. Mathews and Engineer
Crosby, who have been the ac-
tive working corps of the Mary
land Geological Survey and
formed the highway division
thereof, and also includes spe-
cific representation for the diff
ferent geographical sections of
the State. By this arrange
ment scientific, sectional and
popular objects are said to be
achieved. The commission isl
to be a permanent one and to-
carry on the work until it is
completed, and its members are
to receive a fixed salary for
their services.
The commission is given
bread and sweeping powers to-
accomplish its work, including
powers of purchase and con
domination of lands, easements
and other property interests.
IL is also authorized to acquire
by purchase or condemnation
turnpikes now operated by turn
pike companies and also to take
over abandoned turnpikes. Full
powers for the protection and
clear and safe maintenance of
State highways are vested in
it, with police jurisdiction re-

would be put back into debt ::
and the bill therefore provides
for the financing of the whole
system of improvements with
out the State borrowing money
or issuing bonds. The bill in
this respect provides that the
commission shall complete the
general system Of State roads
as soon as may be feasible. but
within a period not So exceed
II years from the first day of
July. 1905. during which time
the expenditures of the com
mission for the State system
shall not exceed $500, 900 a year.
except during the first year.
when the expenditure shall not
exceed 100000.
TO provide for these expendi-
lures. the act appropriates out
OF the Treasury of the State
5000. 900 for the first year, be
ginning July /. 1905, and $500,
600 annually for each of the
following II years, commenc-
ing at the expiration of the
first year
To make sure Of these appro-
priations, the act provides thar.
commencing with the year 800.
State tax of cents shall be
laid on each 500 of assessable
property, and annually there
after for II years a State tax of
not more than , cents shall be
laid The proceeds of these
taxes are TO be set apart as the
state Road Fund. =" II is fur
Their provided. however. that if
the revenues and funds of the
State shall in any year. in the
judgment of the Comptroller,
be sufficient, without levying
such State tax. to provide said
appropriations and eXpendi-
lures, the Comptroller shall
notify the Mayor and Board of
Estimates of Baltimore city
and also the County Commits
sioners of each county, and in
such event the State tax for
roads shall not be levied for
the year in question.
1t was estimated by the Gov
ernor and the Attorney-Gener-
al that by a fair increase III the
revenues Of the State along the
lines already indicated in THE
SuN, and also by economy in
State expenditures and dona-
tions, a sum aggregating about
100000 annually can be ac-
cumulated SO as to be available
for the annual appropriation
and expenditures for the road
system under the act. The
Governor is also of the opinion
that thu increasing taxable
basis of the State will furnish
an additional increment of rev.
enue from year to year for the
same purpose In this way it
is believed that with a slight,
If any, additional tax, and
without borrowing money. the
State can build the proposed
system of roads within the
period Of II years limited by
the proposed act. The measure
alse embodies all the sections
and provisions of the Shoe
maker Road law of 1904, merely
for the highway
division of Maryland Geologi-
cal Survey the Maryland Roads
Commission, which, together
with the chief engineer, as
above explained, embraces the
present members Of the high
ways division as we'll as the
representatives from the differ
ent Congressional districts of
the State.
The object of this, as before
stated, is to give unity and
homogeneity to the whole plan

Simply, forsooth. because we find them

When, all things go as thou wouldst have

Heaped thick, denes the cold; but enslous
