Improvement Of Highways

Knoxville, Tenn, Oct. 8, 1910
Pres't. w. W. Finley. of the South
ern Railway Company, delivered an
address here to-day before the South
ern Appalachian Good Roads Con
efess in which he made an earnest
plea for the construction of an i'm
proved system Of highways through
out the Southeastern States, stress
ing importance Of wagon roads as
feature of transportation He
declared that it is the farmer who
is most vitally interested in the i'm
provement of the county roads but
that all are interested in the welfare
of the farmer and in making condi-
lions in the country SO attractive as
to turn the drift Of population back
from the cities to the farms.
Road conservation was advocated
by Mr.. Finley in the line of having
improvements made on those roads
radiating from market and shipping
points, which are naturally of the
greatest service to the farming pop
ulation. The employment of com
petent road engineers by each coun-
ty was recommended, as was the
issuance of bonds to pay the first
cost of expensive road improvement.
AS illustrating the Importance Of
good roads to the farmer Mr., Finley
gave facts showing the relative cost
of transportation over good and bad
wagon roads and over highways, as
follows:
Wagon road transportation is now
the least economically efficient form
of transportation that we have.
Figures compiled by the Office of
Public Roads show that the cost of
carrying one ton one mile on the
country roads of the United States,
good and bad averages from IL
cents to 27 cents, while for the bad
roads along the average is probably
something over 80 cents per ton per
mile. AS Hon L. w. Page, director
of the United States office Of public
roads, has said: 1T is costing us
about thirty-five times as much to
haul our products over the wagon
roads as it is to haul the same ton
age on the railroads" How it at
fects the marketing of specific crops
may be illustrated by stating some
figures compiled by the office Of
public roads based on the crop year
1905 and 1905. These figures show
that the average length of haul Of
the wheat crop of that year ovel
the wagon roads was 94 miles, and
that the average cost per ton pei
mile was 10 cents. The average
length of haul of the corn crop OF
that year was IA miles, and the
average cost per ton per mile was
| 19 cents. The average length Of
of haul of the cotton crop of that
year was 11.S miles and the aver
age cost per ton per mile was II
cents. 1t is estimated that the
average cost per ton per mile oil
hauling each of these three crops to
market town or shipping station
over good hard roads would have
been 10 cents, and that good roads
would have meant a sa wing of So,
| 256058 in the cost of marketing
the wheat crop of that year; $12
709,278 in the cost of marketing the
corn crop of that year, and SIS, 076,-
1888 in the cost of marking the cot
ton crop of that year.

months of 1909 and now furnishes q
permanent income sufficient to
maintain this branch of office work:
chapter 430 authorizing the compi-
lation of miscellaneous laws by the
department; chapter 452 authorizing
the state printing commission to
make emergency purchases. Other
laws and amendments affecting du-
ties of varying degrees of impor-
lance, were also drafted, ADVOCATED
before committees and passed by
the Legislature.
Among proposed laws urged at
the last session and which should
have been passed, were measures
authorizing a proper investigation
of bounty claims and county fair
audits before the same are present
ed for payment; also a law to pre-
vent wastefulness in the allowance
and distribution of state printing;
also bill to limit individual cleo
ton expenses and to make more eff
tectlve the corrupt practice act un-
der which such expense statements
are now required to be filed in the
department.
The audit measures proposed, to-
gether with laws secured at the last
session would have enabled the
state TO annually save more than
the entire expense of this depart
ment. However, their Importance
cannot be determined alone by dol
lars and cents for passage is de-
manded as business proposition
in order to give additional protec-
ton to the state. These briefly are
a few of the laws prepared by this
Office and passed by the Legislature,
together with measures that were
drafted, actively urged for passage
before committees and should have
been enacted into law.
If such effort to improve the aud
lting and administrative branch of
the states service with which have
been connected, merits approval, l
submit my candidacy for reelection
for the purpose of securing further
improvements in departmental work,
which experience has demonstrated
to be necessary. Also to urge upon
the next legislature, measures that
will enable the office to better safe
guard the states interests.

LOCAL II. S. SPEAKERS WIN

livery of a defamation entitled,
PRO Patria," and Miss Nora Linger
of River Falls was awarded second
place. Both will represent this
league in the district contest. Miss
Linger's selection, "Hagar," was a
most difficult one and she deserves
great credit for her success in CIV
ing it such a masterful interpreted
ton. The declarations, "The Last
Word" by Miss Birdie Zwickey of
Ellsworth and Fort Wagner" by
Miss Bessie Martin of New Rich
mond were also we'll rendered.

Richmond, with the Grafton "Tous-
saint L'Ouverture, was awarded
seconded place. The other orations,
1.-THE Union Soldier" by Frank
Woodwork of Ellsworth, and La
Dor and Capitol" by Maurice Mosher
of Hudson were very creditably
rendered.
The musical numbers given dur
ing the program were delightfully."-
entertaining. Miss Charlene Flower
opened the program with a pleasing
piano solo. "Ashes Of Roses" and
"Darkies' Cradle Song" and an en-
core were beautifully rendered by
high school girls quartet composed
of the Misses Marie Smith, Mae
Coulter, May Smith and Minnie
Smith. A cello solo by B. w. Seigert

have actively supported the laws
that returned to the people more
direct responsibility for official acts
and that have given to Wisconsin
its present effective control of pub

great or limited may be the field of

must be continued in state and ma

reason | urge legislation affecting
the department that is essential to
sound business methods and to the
conduct of state affairs on business

Candidate For Reelection
MADISON, WIS, May 2, 1910

MADISON, WIS.,, May 2, 1910.
! To THE VOTERS OF WISCONSIN,
When announcing my candidacy
for Secretary of State at the close Of
legislative service in both Houses,
believed systematic rearrange-
ment of departmental work could
be undertaken with profit to the
state, AS future pledges may be
considered in the light of the past
performance, l briefly enumerate
some changes in methods and in
laws, affecting the department,
which have been recently secured.
Over sixty thousand accounts
covering approximately eight mil
lion dollars are now audited annu-
ally. The state elective machinery,
compilation of laws, collection of
tax statistics, licensing of corpora
tions, motor vehicles and other du-
ties fixed by law, are also handled
by the state department.
During the past -four years the
amount of Office work increased
nearly fifty per cent, and during the
past twelve years, the increase
shown by the records, approximated
three hundred per cent. Cash re-
ceipts by the office have also grown
proportionately during the last
named period. Since 1897 not one
additional employee has been fur
nished the office, while the increase
of department expenses during the
past twelve years is less than seven
per cent.
Prompt performance of duties and
greater economy has resulted from
systematic methods, improved cler-
ical efficiency, additional hours of
labor and disallowance of office ex-
penditures not clearly authorized by
law. Strict compliance with laws
affecting state printing, aid to fairs,
bounty payments and other matters
of audit has been secured.
Among laws drafted by this Office
and enacted at the last session were
Chapter 464 providing for rotating
names on primary ballots; chapters
SOC, 372 and other curative laws af-
fecting primaries and general cleo
tons; chapter 523 providing addi-
tional safeguards for state audit
ing; chapter 500 which has increas-
ed receipts from motor vehicles six

An Interesting Book.

BENAREs- STRONGHOLD OF HINDUISM.
By G. Phillips Cape. 12mo.; PIP. 2O2.
50 net. Richard G. Badger, publisher,
Boston.
Benares is one of the oldest cities in the
world. 1t was famous before Rome was
known, and for many centuries has had
the homage of every devout Hindu. It's
rivers and it's temples are known and re-
vered throughout India. Indeed, such is
the reputed sanctity of Benares, says the
author, that its pandits are prepared to
admit that should Moslem or Christian
die within the limits of the city he might
reasonably hope to be saved.
This ancient city of the Gauges, with it's
200, 600 inhabitants and its 1900 temples, is
described by Mr.. Cape as without ques-
ton the most picturesque in India The
description of the many objects of interest
in the city and of the life and customs OF
the people is one of strong interest. The
writer has spent many years in Benares,
and is able 10 speak from familiar knowl-
edge of many things that are characteristic
of the place and its people. Mnny excel
lent photographs illustrate this interesting
work.-New Orleans Picayuue.
