four years, after the act takes effect
The proposed bill contemplates the con-
struction of about 5000 miles Of roads
L estimate the cost will not exceed
$4,000 mile or $4,000 at the maxi
mum.
II propose to raise the fund by re-
storing the internal revenue tax OF
1879 on tobacco, and set aside the ad-
ditional income from this source as
national road fund. The additional tax
so provided would amount to about
so million dollars a year. 1t would
be a little more than double the pres
ent internal revenue tax on tobacco
If the proposed roads should cost
$4,000 mile the roads will be paid
for in about four years, and if $4,000 a
mile in about five years.
Il propose that liz per cent of this
additional income shall be used III con-
structfng like roads in our national
parks, five or six in number. This
contemplates about $200, 000, 900 a year
for each park for a period of five
years.
"A year ago I had occasion to re-
quest the internal revenue department
at Washington to figure out for me the
income that would have been derived
on tobacco the preceding year If the
law of 1879 had been in force, and
statement of the actual amount receiv-
ed under the present law. Their report
showed that the receipts for the pre-
ceding year were $5S,OOO,O 900, as oppos-
ed to $13S, 100000 if the law of 1879 had
been in force. There is no doubt
about the amount of money that would
be received under my proposed bill. 1t
is a welI-settled rule that increase of
tax on a luxury does not decrease the
amount consumed, though no great
harm would occur if it did decrease
it's consumption. Such would not be
the result. This has been shown by
many changes in the tax on tobacco,
whisky, etc. am certain that We
will never be able to construct national
highways, unless some such special
fund is created, and 1 know of no
better way to raise the fund.

think is a most important one from
every point of view. 1t is not necessary

tenn of roads; they will readily APP

gressional district OF Washington. And
i is the only city of importance in
Kansas that is so distinguished.
AS soon as congress convenes in
December, Congressman Warburton
proposes to introduce a bill for the
construction of trunk lines of paved
roadways connecting the capitals of
every state with the national capital,
and with each other, and also with
the principal national parks, as is sug-
tsested in the map which is reproduced
herewith. 1t is proposed that the gov
eminent shall locate the lines between
the capitals on the most feasible
routes, the states granting o the gov
eminent the selected roddways for
that purpose, togetatr with the i'm
lrovements on them. The bill will
provide for the construction of a 16-
foot roadway, with heavy concrete
base, hard surface, such as asphalt or
vitr;f1ed brick, in order to make the
roads dustless as near as possible. The
very best construction will be de-
manded, and on easy grades.
Topeka figures as the western ter
minus of the trunk line that will run
directly west from Washington,
through ST. Louis ana Jefferson City.
the trunk line that will run south
through Guthrie, Okla, and down to
Austin, Texas; and north through Lin
coin and Omaha and on to Bismarck,
n D. The roadway north from Toreka
joins at Lincoln with the main trans
continental trunk line which comes
on from Chicago ard runs west
through Cheyenne. Salt Lake City,
Carson City, Sacramento and into San
Francisco. There is a branch line
from Cheyenne down to Denver.
Explaining his plan and how the
money to pay for the construction of
these highways will be raised, Con-
gresham Warburto1 has 1his to say:
Under my scheme the necessary
money for the payment of this work
will be collected by the government
within five years, and probably within

the Capper explosion which was a rec

To repair the damage fifty men were
at work at 5 o'clock Monday morning
and by $3.50 that afternoon the line was
clear and working Considering the
damage telephone men believe that this
repair job was a record in the short
time required. A cut elsewhere shows
three gangs of men making as many
spices in the damaged cables.
In repairing the damage resulting
from The Merchants Transfer fire it
was necessary to splice 1,2G0 wires
And each of these 100 wires must be
connected with the proper wire at each
end of the splice. Otherwise the work
must be half undone in order to find
the mistake. 1t is worthy of mention
that on the Merchants Transfer splice
not one mistake was made. Every one
of those 1,200 wires was properly con-
nected at both ends of the splice the
first time.

it does show how some causes over
