The next morning. while settling

Cannot Make Roads PAY.

IN Switzerland, governmental rail.
road exploitation regularly works an
annual deficit. With less than 5000
miles OF lines the budget for 1906
showed a deficit OF about 1926, 700, and
in 1908 OF about ii.200,O00. without
taking account Of the interest on the
bonded debt amounting to $4,000.
900. Government operation in that
compact little country. with only about
S,O00.000 Of inhabitants and an area
only about twice that OF the State OF
Massachusetts, has given such unfa-
vorable results that the public are
crying out against It. and It promises
to be a leading issue in the coming
electoral campaign.
