Everything is going in tip-top FASH

ing the right Of way. Mr.. Petersen
is working around Williamstown.
about twenty miles south of Kahoka.
The right of way options are being
secured now, and as soon as the right

ton can commence.
Mr.. Knight is going to leave this
evening for other points along the
proposed line, where he will hold ad-
ditional mass meetings with the farm
ers.
Keokuk will have an opportunity,
before long, Mr.. Knight plans, to hear
about the road. He expects to have a
meeting here when the time is right.
This will be a meeting to acquaint the
people here with his plans.

JIM DAVIS AND GOOD ROADS
From the darlington Hawk-Eye.l

There are two penal institutions
in Iowa-the penitentiary at FIT. Mad
ison and the reformatory at Anamosa.
AS shown by reports from these insti-
tutions their average daily population
combined is about 1925. Making a
fair allowance for women and inca.
FACILITATED members, there is at least
available to the state every working
day OF the year the labor Of 1000
men. Both of these institutions are
adjacent to an inexhaustible supply
Of stone, entirely suitable for perma-
nent road building.
with ample authority on the part
of the board of control, why can it
not establish at each of the institu-
tions complete Quarrying and rock
crushing plants, and manufacture in
unlimited quantities standard mater
ial for permanent road construction?
Then let the state provide some
equitable way in which there shall be
created a competition among the sew
eraI counties in permanent road build
ing, Offering in the way Of prizes or
premiums, this mauufa ctured road ma
terial. the material to be furnished BY
the state at specially low rates to the
counties which shall do the most road
building within their limits. 1t is
more than probable that the railroads
would assist by granting special priv
ieges In the way Of transportation
rates.
This would solve to marked de-
gree the criticism by free labor OF
the employment of convicts. The
work being of public nature and
stimulating rather than diminishing
the demand for the material they
produce, it would seem that no just
criticism could be made from any
source.
IF each county for period OF ten
years would build fifteen miles OF
road the entire county system would
be completed.
"A system Of this kind would do
more than anything else to add to the
pleasure OF agricultural life. The
public school system could be lmprov-
ed by concentration From a mater
iaI standpoint it would add many
times to the value of our farm lands.
If the plan is feasible it would seem
that it would readily bring about the
following results:
TT would stimulate among counties
the building of permanent roads. cap
able Of being travelled every day IN
the year.
"It would be a work OF humanitari-
; anism, for 1t would not only enable
the inmates of our reformatoryS insti-
buttons to engage in healthful out
door occupation, but would make them
self-supporting and increase their
happiness and self-respect-
mo criticism should be offered by
free or union labor to this plan, for
this work would be absolutely of
public nature, and by reason OF the
competitive feature would stimulate
road building throughout the state.
''Why cannot one OF our many can
didates for governor incorporate this
plan in his PLATFORM ..-. 10.

When a man of the wide common
sense and intellectual gifts such as
are possessed by James c. Davis, now
general counsel for the Northwestern
railroad in Iowa, and formerly q
leader OF the keokuk bar and power
in first district politics, has anything
to say on matters pertaining to pub
lie welfare, it Is well for the public
to sit and take notice.
Mr.. Davis, like all sensible citizens,
has always been a staunch advocate
of good roads and has given the mat
ter much serious thought. In Frtoay
Des Moines Register and Leader he
submits a plan that will insure Iowa
thousands of miles of improved high
way within short period of time and
at a minimum expense to the state
and people. Mr.. Davis plan contains
SO much that is pertinent and practi-
cal that The Hawk-Eye herewith sub
mits it in full for the consideration OF
its readers:
THE people of Iowa recently have
had striking object lesson on the
great loss in money and energy
which periodically comes to this state
because of impossible highways" he
said. During the main part OF May
excessive rains prevented work IN the
fields, and the impossible condition OF
the roads prevented grain that is still
stored in the state and ready for the
market from being hauled from the
farm. One substantial farmer told
me he had lost cents bushel on
5000 bushels of corn, which he had
sold at 20 cents. to be delivered with
in thirty days, but, by reason Of the
bad roads was unable to deliver same.
and, therefore could realize but IS
cents. This loss Of $3.50 must have
been multiplied many, many times
throughout the entire state.
The question Of good roads seems
so essential to the material growth
and prosperity OF Iowa that 1t is a
curious reflection on the intelligence
OF the people that more interest is
not taken in the subject. With all OF
her boasting wealth and progress,
Iowa Is far behind many of her sister
states in the matter Of permanent
road improvement. and it would seem
that there is an opportunity knocking
at your door whereby plan to per-
manently improve the roads OF Iowa
could readily be put in force.
THE state highway commission, in
its recent annual report, states that
Iowa has 104OS2 miles of road out.
side of municipal corporations and s.
422 miles OF streets and highways in
side municipal corporations, making
total of 112,504 miles of public high
ways. From this network OF roads
the commission has selected what II
describes as a county road system
comprising total of about 15,767
miles Of road, an average of 159
miles to each county. This system
connects all county seats and also
connects the principal trading points
in each county with the county seat
so improvement Of the present sys
tenn practically would connect every
| part of the state.
