TO WAR ON TOLLGATEs
Improvement or Reisterstown Pike Is
Also Sought.

Tn an effort to obtain the abolition
OF toll gates and the improvement Of
the Reisterstown road, one of the
most important thoroughfares out OF
Baltimore to Gettysburg and points
northwest, the Reisterstown Road I'm
provement Association, recently form
\ ed, will make "a direct appeal to the
Legislature.
The Reisterstown road is the only
one Of the main arteries leading from
Baltimore that has not been taken
over and improved by the State Roads
Commission. The-portion of the road
within the city limits, the members
declare, has been taken over by the
State authorities and is being improv-
ed at great cost, but nothing has been
done to eliminate the toll gates be-
yond the city line
The toll gates, called a disgrace by
those interested i'm getting improve
ments, are the only ones in Baltimore
county and are numerous along the
highway It Is declared that although
$50 ,000,0000 has been expended BY the
State Roads Commission within the
last few years, not any of this amount
has been used on the Reisterstown
road.
The association understands chat
none Of the $6,000,0OO appropriation
asked for this year il to be spent on
this road.
Among the signers of the petition
referred to are Mai. Randolph Barton;
the Rev. M. j. Riordan, rector OF st.
Charles Catholic Church, Pikesville;
Paul Seeger, Lawrence nj. Miller,
Albert IT. Myer, Thomas @. Campbell,
IC. Lyon Rogers, e. Lynn Painter, the
Rev. John McC. Mowbray and William
II. Coghlan, chairman OF the Board OF
County Commissioners Of Baltimore
County.
There j. quite an agitation among
the travellers on the ReisterstoWn
road from the Pennsylvania line to
Baltimore and petitions are being got
ten up to present to the legislature
shortly, by these travellers who nave
to pay their toll and extra road tax
and are dissatisfied on account
OF the free roads being built
in other communities. 1t is felt
by these people that if the $6,0OO,0O0
appropriation i to be made BY this
Legislature for good roads, that the
Baltimore and Reisterstown turnpike
should be taken over and the toll
gates removed. This could only be
done legally and properly by paying
proper price for the road. This, we
are sure, can be accomplished by
making proper overtures to the man
agement of the road. Carroll county
has had the experience of improving
old turnpikes that have the grading
and culverts intact for $4,000 per
mile, and we don't believe that the
turnpike company will expect over
$4,000 per mile for their road, thus
making 66-foot thoroughfare fairly
well graded for $4,000 per mile-uuite
a saving on the present method Of
making roads.
