Useless ROAD LAWS.

No less than two hundred and three
sections of the Kansas statutes are
devoted to the matter of roads and
bridges. And there isn't a single one
of them that savors in any way of
being a law that might provide Kansas
with an adequate system of good
roads. Some of them permit counties,
as individuals, to build almost any
kind of a road that they desire, even
the very best. But Kansas will never
have anything that approaches sys-
tenn of good roads until the state takes
a. hand in their making. This has
been the experience of many other
states, and not few of them have
been long since acting accordingly.
Ard the result is that these states are
getting roads which are worth while
