THE QUESTION OF HIGHWAY Yw.
PROVEMENT.

Amid the numerous subjects press
Ing for attention on the part OF our
law makers, the need Of the extern
hion OF our system OF permanent high
ways has been overlooked to a certain
extent but this omission will prob.
ably not continue throughout the ses.
Sion. Various measures have already
been introduced looking toward road
Improvement, and It IS safe to say
that this Legislature will not adjourn
without adopting some measure that
will mean a distinct step in advance
Tor vermonts greatly improved high
way system.
A bill which Is receiving consider
able attention in certain directions is
that introduced by Mr.. Rice of Milton
In the House entitled ITO Build state
Roads." IT provides that the Governor
and State Highway commissioner shall
cause TO be surveyed two main trunk
highways, one commencing on the
West side Of the state at the Canada
fine in the town q IIighgate and cx-
Tending south through the main
towns and cities to tho Massachusetts
line, and the other commencing on the
East side OF the State on the Massa-
rhusetts line in the town Of Vernon
and extending north 10 the Canada
line. Tho road IS TO be built in sec
fions by contract and the bill provides
for bonding not 10 exceed $500. 900
each year, the bonds to be retirable
1t the rate of 100000 a pear.
1t can be seen that the issue OF this
whole bill is whether the State Is
ready to bond 10 build improved roads
or whether we shall keep tinkering
with our highways and scraping the
mud back into tho roadway. as is too
frequently done. This Is the only bill
that provides for bonding and unless
some step of this kind is instituted, II
will take years to build these roads
and nv that time we shall each have
our Sky buggy" Connecticut with a
less mileage appropriates million q
year for permanent highways, and the
present generation in Vermont ough

splendid highway system Vernon
