THE ROAD PROBLEM.

eOne Of the problems OF major i'm
pprtanee before the present session Of
the North Dakota legislature is the
good road question. II is practically
conc, ded by all citizens Of the state
tht a better system of road building
4eeded. There is little doubt but
that some legislation viii be passed
along this line.
The last session wrestled with this
problem and evolved the county
superintendent of highway system,
winch a proved to be a good thing
in the few counties that took adj
vantage Of 1t. But the trouble is
that very few counties took it up.
The suggestion has been offered TO
The Forum by a farmer that it might
be a wise plan to get down to an even
smaller unit and pass a law authoriz-
ing each township to appoint a town
ship supervisor. The man who made
the suggestion pointed out that il
would be an easier matter to get a
township to adopt this plan thar it

EXPRESS COMPANIES awake.

An immediate result OF the parcel
post and the great popularity which it
has enjoyed from the start has been to
arouse the express companies from the
lsthargy Of years and to force them to
take action to hold some of the BUSH
moss which is fast slipping from them,
bg entering into an active attempt to
furnish a better service at a lower
cost than the parcels post is able to do.
The tranic manager Of Wells Fargo
GO. that plans are maturing
To- this end. and the new programme
VIII soon be in eIect.
The express companies, satisfied with
the enormous profits which they made
IL the past, with substantially no in
vstment in plant, neglected to render
proper service in a field which they
had all to themselves. The parcel
post has come largely because Of the
failure Of the express companies TO
even partially meet the demands of
the service which they have hereto
f0rs nonopoltzed.
The great field for the Improvement
kofethe transportation facilities of the
country. practically untouched until
bthe parcel post entered it with the
commencement of the present year,
has been the field OF local distribution.

any size from M point to another
Within the limits of a city than it has

Of the continent by rail.

alive to their opportunities; had they
established central distributing sta
tons in all parts Of each city, utilized
the street a lines to reach those CEN
trail stations. from which distribution
o. parcels could be made to all parts
kof the city at a reasonable cost, they
kcpnld have built up a system which
would nave rendered the parcel post
Unnecessary and have enormously In
creased their own usefulness. Now they
have to start in opposition to the gov
eminent which has the machinery for
lpeal distribution. and compete for q
business which they could have had to
themselves,
