MR.. BOYKIN'S ADDRESS

The address delivered last FRIDAY
night by Mr.. Boykins, the Good
Roads expert, sent out by the De-
partment at Washington, was inter
esting and instructive. While there
was little in the lecture that was
new the usual arguments were pre-
sented clearly and with force. He
stated positively and with empha-
sis, that experience everywhere has
proven that the only way To get
good highways is to build them and
pay for them ont OF our own pockets,
and this means bond issue. He
deprecated the hop, skip and iump
system of building roads here and
there over the county, but the Sc
curing OF sum of money sufficient
to build main pike, first though the
center of the county, available to
the greatest number of people, and
then connect this by cross roads as
fast as possible. The arguments in
favor of bond issue were forcefuI
and unanswerable. Raise a large
sum OF money, To be paid within n
long period by those who will come
after us-use your roads while Won
are paying for them" keep your
cake and eat ii, too. " Good roads in
crease value of lands. AS the Yeas

lion comes in and the payment Of
the debt falls lightly on the should
ers of large and increasing number
OF people. Direct tax means heavy
burden, said the speaker, to the peo-
pie of one generation, bond issue
distributes the load over generations.
