IT. HE Democratic Advocate, OF
Westminster, quotes Governor
CrothcrS as stating that mo
pick shall be stuck in any road to be
improved by the State except at its
nearest point to the county seat This
statement OF the Governors is evident
ly not intended for home consump-
ton Every pick stuck in the road
by the State Commission in thi.s
county, has been as far away from the,
county seat as it could possibly get.
And nobody seems able to understand
the motive back OF the action OF
Messrs. Crothers and Tucker in locat-
ing these operations in far corner Of
the county. Perhaps the bill of Sena-
tor Andrews, OF Hartford county, to
have the State purchase the Como
wingo Bridge. at the price OF $4,000
will cast some light on the subject.
One oil the Governors reasons, in fact
his most emphasized and reiterated
reason for building in this county up
in the Conowingo section, was that
sthe Conowingo Bridge people would
rebuild the bridge, if they were assured
of the State road coming that way.
Well, the bridge was rebuilt at a cost
in the neighborhood of $4,000 The
bill. introduced by Senator Andrews,
would enable the State to enjoy the
luxury OF purchasing the bridge at just
double that amount Will the Cover
nor sign the bill if passed? Will a
horse eat oats?

WHERE IS THAT REPORT

" HE Governor was surprised .
1t seemed to shock him con-
= siderably last Fall to hear that
there was a doubt, i'll the peoples
mind, as to the competency and eff
cheney of the States Good Road Com
mission. When certain financial me-
thods OF that Commission were pub
lcly criticised in various quarters and
it was suggested that an audit OF its
accounts would not be amss, where a
100000 fund was being administered
by Commission which had resolved
itself virtually into a CrothersTucker,
personslly-conducted, performance, the
Governor at once went up i'll the air
and. IN one OF those elaborate news
paper interviews to which he has
become addicted, wanted it understood
that the Road Commission would
make a report in full to the Legisla
ture. as the law provides it shall do.
Well, where is that report? The Legis
lature is drawing rapidly to the close
OF its rather useless existence. The
few remaining days of that existence
are likely to be crowded with things
which ought to have been attended to
earlier, but were not; and any report
of the Commission which may come in
these crowded closing days Gf any
comes at alb is not likely to be ca
fully considered, and therefore is not
likely to be OF much public benefit II
the matter could be gotten before the
Legislature, and the people could once
see fully and fairly just what sort OF a
record the State Road Commission has
made, we believe the somewhat dis
cusscd plan to repeal the law and abol-
ish the Commission would take prac-
tica and vigorous form. We have
found the people al over the State
with executions OF COurSc) lar from
pleased with this Good Roads per-
Torrance up to date. We quote the
valuable criticism thereof in a recent
financial circular OF I1ambleton & Co:
Several years ago the State adopted
a policy OF building roads through the
issue OF bonds at the expense OF the
taxpayers The result has been prac-
ticaliy the same as the system OF street
paving in Baltimore, fortunately now
abolished. which paving consisted OF
detached patches OF modern pavcmentS
i'll localities controlled by ward poll
ticianS, with the result that we have a
crazy-qullt patchwork system OF paving
all over the CITY without any reference
TO the general beneht OF the city
its people.
The same thing is going on row in
the counties through the building OF
these State roads Not only so. but
these roads are costing at the rate OF
at least $4,000 per mile. cost opt OF
all reason and which. ii persisted in,
together with the extravaganza which
is now SO pronounced n Inc LcgiSla-
ture, will cause the tax rate to be
raised every two years, and finally will
be SO onerous that the pconle will rise
up in their wrath and rclcgate to OBJ
security the party responsible. The
policy Of road building by the State
should be stopped at once
And yet, in the lace OF all this. the
people let this tiaSco go on, ard let
the States funded debt pile ND, with
no adequate return to show therefor
