ROAD TAX
TIME farmers of the State have
j been complaining vociferously

TIME farmers of the State have
4 been complaining vociferously
for the past year or more con-
!cerning road conditions. Governor
fBrumbaugh and State Highway Com
imissioner Cunningham have joined ef-
lforts to remedy the evils existing.
Pennsylvania ought to have as good
roads as any State in the country, If
not better. But the farmers should
not lay too much blame on the State
Highway Department. Neither should
they complain if their road taxes are
increased, for more thanany other peo-
pie in Pennsylvania they are RESPONSE
BILE for present conditions.
At their request the Legislature
some years ago added enormously to
the State road system, taking over
Thousands of miles of roads that had
Sbeen maintained previously by the
lcounties. This was done largely be-
lcause farmers desired to shoulder the
expense of maintenance upon the State
at large and, secondly, because the leg
1slators expected the farmers would
pass the S50,000,O 900 road loan.
This road loan would have taken
care of the new construction work for
years to come and would have per-
united the State Highway Department
ito concentrate all the revenue appro-
priated by the Legislature on repairs.
But the farmers saw fit to turn down
the loan proposition and the State was
left with an enormous mileage upon
its hands which it found impossible.
first-class order Repairs were neg
lected not because those in charge had
no regard for the roads, but because
they had not money enough with
which to meet the necessary expense.
Furthermore, the farmerswho turned
down this road loan would not have
been asked to pay one penny of the
money necessary for sinking fund and
interest. All of It would have been
raised by State tax on corporations.
The farmers of Pennsylvania were Of
fered something for nothing. The
State proposed to build their roads and.
turn them over for their use at alb
solutely no cost to theme They de-
clined the offer and they now must
share whatever of blame has arisen
from unsatisfactory highway condi-
tions in Pennsylvania, and they will
have no just complaint II the Legisla-
ture finds 1t necessary to tax them for
highway maintenance expenses that
must be met in some manner.

MIR. N1ANNING's SUGGESTIONS

WTARREN H. MANN1NG's ten
Wv tative suggestion for the
landscape treatment of the
Capitol Park extension area is ad-
mirable There has been much favor
able comment upon that feature of his
plan which proposes natural am
phitheater at the eastern front of the
Capitol. Such a place long has been
needed for the great inaugural cere-
monies and other demonstrations of
the kind.
Mr.. Manning's high standing as a
landscape architect and the splendid
work he has done throughout the
lcountry admirably fits him for a study
of the Capitol Park district.
Governor Brumbaugh's constructive
mind and his great ambition to give
Pennsylvania her proper place in the
lsisterhood of States. afford assurance
of broad and comprehensive treatment
when the subject shall be taken up
this year. Now that most of the prop
erty east of the Capitol has been ac-
Iquired and will be entirely in the
hands of the Commonwealth before
the next session of the Legislature,
immediate steps should be taken to
design plan of park treatment which
can be carried out within the next few
years.

CUTTING DOWN EXPENSES

TUCH interest attaches to the an
Nl nouncement of the postofice Of
ficials that they are expert
menting with the so-called Telapost
system with the idea of quickening
the postal service and at the same time
saving considerable money on long dis
tance hauls of letter mail. The idea
appears to have distinct business value.
THE possibilities of dropping a stamped
letter into box one evening with the
knowledge that it would be delivered
in San Francisco, for instance. the
morning following are immensely at
tractive. The sender would receive
service that is at present prohibitive
and the government would be saved
the long letter haul between the coasts.
Harrisburg telegraph. [volume] (Harrisburg, Pa.) 1879-1948, 1915-05-03

Multiply one letter by millions and the
time and money saved would be al
most beyond computation. Few peo-
pie would begrudge the extra postage
required.
Most of the changes urged by Post
master gurleson and some of those
that have been put into effect are de-
signed to cut down expenses, but they
are cutting into the efficiency OF the
department as well. 1t is pleasing,
therefore, to note that the postmaster
general has something under conside-
ration that promises to work both
ways.

is BILLY" SUNDAY SINCERE


We gathered up Mr.. AckIey and
went into a front room, where, robed
in white pajamas, in the midst of an
enormous bed, BILLY Sunday lay read
ing a book by the light of an electric
lamp over his shoulder.
Here's couple of fellows from a
New York magazine" said Ackley.
They wanted to shake hands with
you"
BILLY" lifted his head with the swift
movement of an animal and looked at
us with eyes in which cordiality, ap-
prisal, doubt and fear of ridicuIe chas-
ed themselves like wild wind on water
The upper part of f-his face was extra
ordinarily alive and expressive; his
mouth was strong, mobile, enthusiastic
trembling in a kind of embarrassed
grin. He looked at us as If he thought
that perhaps we had come to perse-
cute him. He looked at Cardiff, and
then at Ackley, for an explanation
The gray thin hair on top of his head
was almost invisible, making his face
seem incredibly boyish-for BILLY"
mon a gray stubble of beard had
sprouted on his cheeks and chin, and
there were sagging pouches of flesh
and tired lines at the corners of his
mouth.
I'm glad to see you. boys" he said,
smiling little doubtfully. What can
l do for you?"
nacle to-day, Mr. Sunday" we told
him, "and heard you speak. But we
Just thought we would come in and
shake hands with you. We wanted to
see what kind of a guy you really
were"
With a delighted smile he dropped
the book and thrust out both hands

like that. I'm really glad you came.
Sit right down."
His eyes and face were full of easy,
childlike enthusiasm. He discovered
that I had just come back from Eu-
rope.
Say" he said, in wide-eyed admira-
ton. there's too many bullets flying
around over. there for me. A fellows
got to have a good deal of courage to
go over there now, hasn't he?"
We asked him what he thought of
the war, and his eyes filed suddenly
with tears.
'I think it's the most horrible, aw-
full thing in the whole world" he said
earnestly. He was proceeding, but
there was a swift rustic of skirts be-
hind us, and the nervous voice of Ma
Sunday snapped:
You villains! Didn't I tell you
you couldn't see 'Billy?' What have
they been doing, 'Billy'-pumping
you?"
She went over to him, pulled up the
covers, lifted his head, and turned over
the pillow for him.
Not a pump" laughed Billy;
they're just good-natured human be-
ings come to shake hands with me-"
Is BILLY" Sunday sincere? I think
he is. l have seen him absolutely
dominate two audiences of twenty
thousand people in one day, and I do
not believe he could put the fire and
passion and enthusiasm into his words
and actions If he were not sincere. He
is generous. even reckless, with his
