LICENSING CAR DRIVERS.

The sheriff OF King County is after
the automobilists who are running
their machines at high rates of speed
over the new road just north of Seat
tie and are running it's surface. One
man boosted of running at the rate of
60 miles IN hour; he was fined $25.
Fines may not prove a sufficient
remedy for the evil. In Detroit a son
of a former Mayor and Governor was
a frequent offender, and vas often
fined. Finally the judge told him the
next time he appeared before him on
a speeding charge 1t would be a term
in the House of Correction, and the
practice stopped.
Samuel Hill reports that Washing
ton farmers he has met in various
parts of the state favor licensing those
who run automobiles. He. adds:
"They are not joking. They argue that
an ~able-bodied man, manacled, is no
more helpless than a woman or child
in front Of an automobile. So, they
say, the manacled candidate should
be placed at work for a year on a
road traversed by automobiles. At
the end of that time he will have
enough experience in lodging auto
mobiles while handicapped to have at

least a faint conception of the Difficult
ties which the weak and defenseless
are under when trying to get out of
the way of swiftly moving machines.
1t will give them true sympathy for
the oppressed. Then if they pass a
proper physical, mental and moral test
they should be given licenses.
Il have the laws from a number of
states regulating the automobile traf-
ic, and | would be pleased to give my
assistance in framing a suitable bill
for passage at the next session of the
legislature. An automobile is an en-
CINE, the same as a locomotive. Yet
before a man is entrusted to run a To-
connective he is compelled to serve an
apprenticeship as a fireman and must
be examined as to ability to distin-
guish colors. And then he runs his
locomotive on two tracks, while the
automobile driver shoots his machine
through the crowded streets"
Judge Thomas Burke is quoted as
saying:
81 have no faith in the plan of
requiring all automobile drivers to
take out a license; it will prove no
remedy. The greatest danger to the
pub ic today arises from fast driving
by thoroughly competent and even ex-
pert chauffeurs. To protect the pub
lie and correct the existing evils in
the running of automobiles, it Is not
more law hat We want, but the bet
ter enforcement of the laws we now
have. If the authorities would en-
force the existing ordinances against
fast driving, the danger from automo-
biles would be reduced to a minimum.
Every n using the streets, whether
on foot, in carriages or in automobiles,
knows perfectly we'll that the chief
danger comes from reckless driving
by men perfectly competent to get
a license under any license system
that could be advanced. Therefore,
it seems to me that We have law
enough on the subject if we will but
enforce It,"

ROADS
GOVERNMENT AND GOOD ROADS.

GOVERNMENT AND GOOD ROADS.
1t has been estimated that on a gen.
eral average of $1.25 the following re-
suits can be obtained:
On public road, five miles.
On an electric car line, twenty-five
miles.
On a steam railway, $50 miles.
On a steamship, 1000 miles.
There are two forms of agitation
under way at present for ~remedying
this admitted evil. One of them is for
state control of roads, and the other is
for national control of the public high
ways. In regard to the latter conten-
ton, the following arguments are pre-
scented by R. M. Bremerton, M. l. G. E.,
of Woodstock, Ore:
The national government should
fulfill it's constitutional duty to the
nation in doing the construction work
of the main roads of the country.
Each state should maintain the
roads under state supervision and by
a uniform and just state tax.
Public roads must be made and
maintained as permanent ways to sup
port the nature of the transport re-
CURED.
Thirty feet of hard roadway is suf-
ficient for the rural districts.
Good roads agitation and booming
are futile and a waste Of public energy
if the cost thereof is to be borne as
heretofore by the farming community
alone.
"Such agitation and public effort
Chor1I hn ovtnnciuo1u nnnN11raO nH in
the naturalization of the construction
of public roads by the national govern
ment, and in the maintenance of same
by a state tax ON all property in the
state.
at should be an established princi-
pie that all money derived from taxes
on realty and labor for public roads
should be expended only under the di-
rection and control of well-qualified
state engineers. The well-meaning but
wholly unframed and inexperienced
road supervisors and county court Of
ficials cannot prevent the present vast
waste of tax money under the existing
system of constructing and maintain
ing the roads.
"The present system Of burdening
Ou0 udLlOudl luuuoCly dlOhC, anu Ihot
the most important of all, with the
cost of the public roads for the bene-
fit of the general public, is inexcus-
able and unconstitutional. What is a
service to all should be paid for by
ALL"
Everyone knows that the key of
modern business is transportation.
That system which brings the product
of the farm and factory close to the
consumer with the least expense is
the one that advances economic and
industrial society the most. Farmers
are paying too much to market their
farm products and too much on the re-
turn freight on implements and COM
modities used on the farm. AS it costs
as much to move one ton eight miles
on a road as $50 miles upon the rail-
road or 1000 upon a steamship, it
would seem in all probability that the
heavy burden of freight traffic falls to-
day on the road and that there is no
other way in which transportation
can be reduced so easily as in the max
ing of a good road.-Frank Blackmar.

T. M. Elliott, a Brewster horse
dealer, is a booster for good roads, and
let's no opportunity go by to put in a
lick for the betterment of public high
ways, says the Riverside Argus. AS
an effective argument he relates the
following incident: In 1907 he
bought in this county a team of horses
a%ggregating 1,24O pounds in weight. A
year later he saw this same team
trotting away on a macadamized road
in Rochester, N. Y, with $500 pounds
of potatoes. Mr.. Elliott makes the
point that a horse is no stronger in
New York than in Washington, but
that the increased working ability of
the team is due solely to good roads
and his point cannot be disputed.
