BONDS FOR ROADS
Saving in Hauling Wheat 10 $4,000 Per
Square Mile,

Saving In Hauling Wheat 10 $4,000 Per
Square Mile.
If the construction of narrow, sin
gle-track roads with improved surface
will reduce the hauling cost five cents
"a ton-mile and the average yield Of
wheat is thirty bushels to the acre,
there results, for an average haul of
five miles, an economic advantage of
225 cents per acre or $50 per quarter
section. This is four per cent on
5000.
1t appears Immediately that such a
community will be safe in borrowing
money to the extent of $4,000 per
square mile of wheat area to effect
such an improvement in the roads as
would reduce the hauling charges five
cents per ton-mile on the wheat crop
alone.
! In determining the economic advan-
tage of good roads to any community
there are three items which must be
included, but for which no specific
figures can be given. '''''--- ''A-~s

McKeIway Brief to Congress.
sionaI Committee a Plea
for Suffrage.

An appeal for self-goverhment in the
District of Columbia makes up the entire
brief submitted to the joint select COM
mittee of Congress to inquire into the
fiscal relations between the District OF
Columbia and the United States. by A.
j. McKelway, chairman Of the Citizens
Committee of Forty in Behalf of Popu-
lar Government in the District of Colum-
bia. The brief declares the present form
of government in the District to be un-
American, and makes an argument for
suffrage and election of officials of the
local government.
The brief says, in part:
THAT in a nation which uttered the
Declarat ton of Independence at its birth,
community of more than average in
teligence, with a population of more
than a third of million souls should be
denied the right of self government, the
privilege of electing its legislative and
executive officials. is an anomaly.
THE Constitution provides that the
Congress shall have power to exercise
exclusive legislation over the District.
But this constitutional provision is no
bar to the granting. by appropriate legis-
ment. The President is empowered to
appoint the officers of the District by act
of Congress. The citizens may be given

feed to the welfare Of the nation, 1t
would be only patriotic for the community
to consent to the denial of the rights Of
American citizenship. beg leave to sub
NIT that the present situation reflects
disastrously upon the national govern
ment:
"(a) The forty thousand government
officials who reside in Washington are
affected by having no voice in the affairs
Of the community which they have made
their home, and thus lose touch with the
common duties and privileges of citizen
ship
"Cb) The attention Of Congress is un-
duly taken up with District matters
"(c) The present system retards the
growth, along national lines Of the Ma
tional Capital With Congress occupied
with general legislation for the District
and with appropriating money for purely
municipal purposes, with the financial in
ability of the District to raise by taxa
tion even half of the sum that would be
necessary for making Washington the
capital of capitals, the city is neither
model municipality nor the object of ma
under other conditions
The ethical consideration, first in i'm
portance, is herewith mentioned last. 1t
is not just that American citizens should
be deprived of a right common to their
fellow-citizens throughout the nation 1t
Is not seemly that the principles Of taxa

Lost Franchise In 1874.


"The citizens of the District were de-
prived Of the suffrage and thus Of self
government in 1874. The demand for
the restoration of this right has been
held in check since 1878 because OF
the so-called organic act, one OF whose
provisions was the stipulation that the
United States should pay from the ma
tional Treasury one-half of the sum
appropriated for the expenses of the
District.
'The proposal to grant the District
a delegate in Congress. with a voice
but with no vote. does not meet the
situation. It may still be considered
inexpedient for this community at the
seat of government to be given by
tional matters. But so much the more
reason that it should be empowered
to control its municipal affairs. The
Congress could easily protect the ma
tional interest in the capital by re-
serving the right of veto for legisla.
governments.
"The denial of the right Of self-gov-
ernment is a bad thing for the COM
munity. The city of Washington has
America. Its dependence upon the
government has been developed to the
point of mendicancy.
The government Of such a COM
munity by the Congress- composed ex-
clusively of citizens of other COM
munities, is essentially unjust and in
efficient government. The people are
taxed without their consent and the
funds collected by taxation are dis
bursed without their approval. Things
which the people desire are denied
them. Those they do not care for are
given them. Appropriations are de-

mittee on appropriations of each house

ONE MAN INJURED
 IN WRECK ON ERIE
Coal and Freight Trains Collide Traffic Held Up for Four Hours
 By Catastrophe.

Ridgewood, N. J.. Jan. 19.-Traf11c on the main line of the Erie railroad was tied up for four hours last night by freight wreck, in which one man was seriously injured. Several cars were thrown over a 40-foot embank- ment. Fire followed the wreck.
 The wreck occurred at a point one mile east of Hohokus. An eastbound train stalled because of the fog, was struck by coal train of sixty cars The engine of the coal train went through the caboose and demolished the next two cars, which were carry ing oil. The caboose was rolled to one side and tumbled down the en- bankment, carrying with it Freder- ick Dillinger, of Matamoras, Penn, a brakeman. Dilinger was taken to the Suffern hospital.
 William Crane, engineer of the coal train, said that it was impossible to see twenty feet ahead and that he dis cerned no signal from the stalled freight. Bremen from this place and Hohokus were summoned but it was several hours before the flames in the wreck were extinguished.
 Shortly before 10 o'clock the wreck ing crew cleared one of the westbound tracks, but the other three tracks were still blocked late last night

CHURCH COURT TRIES
 SPIRITED RECTOR
Fhhade phja Minister Charged Whh
 Breach Of VvWS and Misconduct.

Philadelphia, Pa, Jan. 19.-Rev. George Chalmers Richmond, the spirited rector who has caused sev eral sensations in the Protestant Epis- copal church, was put on trial yes terday before the ecclesiastical court of the diocese He is charged with breach of his ordination VOWS and conduct unbecoming minister of the gospel, as the result of his recent dec laration in which he accused Bishop Rhinelander of sending "ecclesiastical spies into his church to prevent freedom of speech.
 "Because I preach the truth I am persecuted," declared the militant rector. Bishop Rhinelander has tried for long time to make life unpleasant for me. If I were on trial for my life, I would sooner have q jury of burlesque actors than some of the clergy of Philadelphia. It's a good fight, and I welcome the oppor- tunity to stand trial. I admit I wrote the. letters they will produce against me. They have been trying to get me- for some time. It's all a fight for freedom of speech. I stand on my rights and I will fight for them.

 ''The bishop was elected by a con vention controlled by capitalists. The Holy Ghost was not present at that meeting The diocese is the worst managed in the church. The Protes- tant Episcopal church in America has always taken it's cue from J. Pierpont Morgan and Wall street,
 The reference of Dr. Richmond to capitalists strikes boldly at the let ters in the case against him. They have to do with the proposal that Mrs. Sarah Conboy, a labor leader. be allowed to speak from the pulpit of St. Johns church. In one of the letters pr. Richmond committed the breach on which he is today tried.
 Text of Letter
 The letter reads as follows:
 My dear bishop: I am very sorry that my recent action in regard to Mrs. Conboy has plunged you into so much spiritual anxiety. Your extra both in the guarded way by which you sent me your mes sage of warning and by sending your ecclesiastical spies into our church to watch and listen, were all out of place and uncalled for. They savored of the picayune, the small and the m can. Tricky men are not great, large minded, noble fellows. The next time such ecclesiasts appear at St. Johns I shall call them up to the chancel and question them. They should be out preaching the gospel instead of doing our bishops dirty york;

 There is little kerosene left in the town and the stock of candles is eX- hausted.
