WAsTEFUL ROAD WORK.

Burlington Hawk-Eye: The pres
emit system of highway construction
and maintenance is one of the most
wasteful of public expenditures
This is especially true of Iowa and
Illinois. Careful investigation has
shown that of the 100000 ex-
pended annually in Illinois on pub
lie roads, approximately 371s per
cent is wasted, and in some town
ships much greater per cent is
spent without benefit. What pri-
vate enterprise, what merchant,
manufacturer, banker or railroad
company could stand such loss as
that without bankruptcy?
Why is not the taxpayer entitled
to as fair treatment as the individ-
ual citizen in his own business?
There is another view of this ex.

Some OF the papers are saying
that the order of President Taft
placing fourth class postmasters in
the civil service, is detriment to
the democratic party and that demo-
cratic congressman do not like 1t.
On the contrary, the Freeman-Trib-
une believes democratic congressman
are glad that these postmasters are
taken off their backs and that they
will not be required to choose be-
tween friends for postmaster in
fourth class towns. The postoffice
has caused the downfall of more
congressman than all other causes
combined and for the peace of the
congressman, If for nothing else, all
postmasterships ought to be placed
under civil service rules. President
Wilson will make hit if he extends
the service. The country is tired Of
the spoils System and barring a few
chronic office-seekers who can not be
elected to anything by vote of the
people, no one wants 1t continued.
Congress has refused to interfere
with the recent order of President
Taft extending the civil service.
