State Roads.

Chokio Review AS we anticipated
some time ago considerable opposition
to the location of both the North and
South, and East and West State
roads which have been proposed is be-
ing developed. The latter road as laid
out a year ago, crosses the Browns
Valley branch track just this side
Of Morris and then follows the section
line due west to the county line. To
this the people of Pepperton and Al
berta are opposed. They contend that
the old road running one mile north
of the one selected, to Alberta where
it would cross the track. should be
selected and Messrs. Schlattman and
Peterson were circulating petition
asking the commissioners to designate
the latter road as part of the State
highway. Wednesday. The north and
SOUTH or Madison to Herman. road as
originals described by Messrs. Brown
and Carlson. its orginators, passes
thru the county on bee line with
the exception of jog west of about a
half mile where it passes thru this
village. To this the people on the
west side in Stevens object. Their
route would be one mile west of the
one originally selected which they
claim would accommodate more farm
ers. There is of course two sides to
every question but our good neigbhors
should get together on this road mat
tire and not allow personal feelings OF
greed to bar US from the great bene.
fits to be derived from good roads.

commission.
MANY ROADS PLANNED

The plan of continuous roads is gain
ing in favor. and at the present time
six fine state highways are under con-
temptation. One, the Scenic high
way, will run between st. Paul and
Fort Smelling to Mankato; another,
the Capitol road, will connect ST.
Paul and Albert Lea; still another
will traverse the territory between
the Twin Cities and Duluth: fourth.
known as the Yellowstone Park and
Black Hills road, will pass through
Winona, Rochester. Owatonna, New
Ulm and Lake Benton in Minnesota;
a firth will follow the st. Paul rail
road from the Twin Cities to Orton-
vile; and the sixth will follow the
Great Northern from the Tiwl Cities
to Browns Valley.
HIGHWAYS IMPROVED.
Work on the state roads during
1912 was extensive. State roads
with $40 mileage were graded. 174
miles were graveled, 35 miles were
treated with clay and SAND. and seven
miles were macadamized. Wooden
bridgess are being replaced with steel
and concrete structures as rapidly as
possible. During 1912, 9 steel
bridges with total length of $500
feet. were built, while six concrete
bridges were erected, with total
length of $50 feet. The total cost of
these bridges was $658. 900. of which
the state paid about $500, 600. st.

It might be well for the kingmak-

son of Goodhue county, who caused
quite a few to sit up and take no
tice in a demand on the grand jury
of his county that it investigate vio-
lations of the 2-cent fare passenger
law in the district and bring indict-
ments. The jury failed to take heed
and he gave the members a scoring.
Then followed the findings of the SUI

official in the state did have the
nerve to start something brought him
considerable attention and Judge
Johnson was flooded with letters of

Judge Johnson has his eye on is not

SHOULD REDUCE ACCIDENTS
Properly Installed Brakes Stop
Cars Quickly.

Brake tests made on number OF Pack
ard trucks in actual use demonstrate that
with properly proportioned brahng area
and an automatic governor 70 control the
speed OF the motor street accidents in
which motor trucks figure can be reduced
70 a minimum.
A loaded three-ton truck going AZ the
maximum governed speed Of twelve miles
ar hour was stopped in less than its own
length An unloaded two-ton truck, going
as fast as the governor would allow, was
stopped IN p space OF nine feet. These
tests show the control which can be cx-
erted By drivers Of Packard trucks IN
avoiding accidents.
With the Parkard's automatic governor
the maximum speed OF the vehicle is
definitely fixed by its owner. With such
control II is impossible for venturesome
drivers 70 risk the lives OF pedestrians
and endanger other traffic by assuming a
speed sufficient 10 prevent immediate con-
troll OF the truck when conditions call Cor
quick use OF the brakes.
The tests furnish conclusive proof that
with the brakes in good condition the
combination Of the governor with the
large braking area OF the Packard trucks
makes the chance Of accident even In the
most crowded thoroughfares practically
negligible so far as the truck Is con-
cerued
