Only one service, and that is the

during the Sabbaths of the Taber-
nacle Meetings.
Let us all try to be prompt-at
9:45, so as to be ready for the tab
ernacle Meeting at IL O'Clock.
Remember. too, that the regular
expenses of the church must be met,
and all who attend the Sunday
School can bring their envelopes
with them; or leave them during
the week either at Mr.. Cowle's store
or at the Office of Mr.. Louis Bagley.
The Union services at the Taber-
nacle are announced elsewhere, and
may each of US take upon ourselves
a personal responsibility, and make
ii our choice privilege to cooperate
to make the meetings a great source
OF blessing to our community.
Altogether-in the fellowship of
prayer; attendance at the meetings !;
personal invitations to others, and a
readiness to cooperate in every good
work. All at it, and all doing our
best--the results with God.

THE TRUTH ABOUT
SURFACED ROADS

There is much discussion and win
be more of so-called hard-surfaeed
roads, and the issue relating to them
is being confused, especially by dem
agogues who are looking for plat
form on which to ride into Office.
Honest, earnest, well meaning men
differ in their opinions as to road
surfacing, but much of their differ
ence Is caused by their misunder-
standing each other Two things
should be made clear
First, there are many types of So
called surfaced roads, some of which
are entirely too expensive and little
adapted to our conditions. The dem
agogue assumes that the friends of
better things stand for building paw
ed roads costing $4,000 per mile or
nothing. The facts are that these
so-called paved roads are nowhere
built except in limited way, usually
near great cities, or where by reason
of heavy traffic, they are demanded
and found to be economical.
In Ohio, which is noted for sur
faced roads, most of the so-called
Audubon Republican. [volume] (Audubon, Iowa) 1894-1925, 1915-09-23

surfaced roads are built of gravel and
cost not to exceed $500 to $1,000 per
mile The same is true of Michigan,
Wisconsin, Minnesota and to con-
siderable extent of Illinois.
II may. as well, therefore, be set
tied in advance that a surfaced road
is not necessarily paved and ex-
tremely expensive road.
At the state fair the State High
way Commission had an exhibit OF
short sections of many varities OF
roads.
First, there was well graded and
drained dirt road.
Second, an oiled dirt road.
Third, grayeled road
Fourth. an oiled gravel road.
Fifth, gravel road mixed with an
asphalt product.
Sixth, a light and comparatively
inexpensive concrete road
Seventh, a substantial brick road
on a heavy concrete base, designed
for heavy traffic in or near the cities.
Eighth, concrete road with a
heavy base suitable for heavy traffic
in the vicinity of cities.
Only the seventh and eighth kinds
of roads here enumerated are expen-
sive, and it is not the thought of the
State Highway Commission nor of
others who advocate surfaced roads,
that such pavements can be intro
duced and built generally throughout
the state of Iowa. Only the dema-
gogue is figuring on their wholesale
introduction, and they do it simply
to brighten the farmers and get up
stampede, hoping to ride INTO Office
in the confusion.
In the second place, it is assumed
that somebody somewhere is trying
to ram bond issue down the throats
of the farmers. There may be differ
Audubon Republican. [volume] (Audubon, Iowa) 1894-1925, 1915-09-23

ences of opinion as to the ACCESSIBILITY
of surfacing roads but so far as we
know none of the road enthusiasts
advocate bond issue unless the same
/, be voted by the electors of the com.
munity that will have the bonds to
pay. Governor Clark stands for re.
| ferring the matter to the people
General Cosson, who is gubernator,
ial aspirant, has announced that he
likewise stands for the referendum
and no bond issue except upon the
express vote of the people, and Sena.
tor Joe Allen, who is candidate foi
governor voted in the last session OF
the legislature for law empowering
the people to vote bonds IL they
choose so to do, for highway and
bride Improvement w. w. Marsh
who is an enthusiast for surfaced
roads and most likely to be the Dem
ocratic nominee for governor, like.
wise stands for the referendum on
issuing road and bridge bonds.
We know of no one road enthus-
last or otherwise that desires a law
requiring the surfacing of any road
in any community until the people OF
that community vote for the improve
ment. The only law that has been ad-
vocated is one permitting people to
spend their own money as they
please. At the present time we have
"a law authorizing the people upon
vote to bond for school houses. They
may vote bonds to build court houses
they may vote to establish or discs
tablish county high school; they
may vote TO remove county seat,
and otherwise directly legislate for
themselves on many questions. Are
these privileges abused? Can not
the people be trusted?
Here in Guthrie county we have a
lot of gravel The county engineer
says we have plenty of good gravel
10 surface our roads. To be sure,
there is not much gravel in the
western part of the county, but the
engineer suggests that by using a
steam shovel to load large dump
wagons and then pull them to their
destination with tractor that will
haul fifteen to twenty of them at a
trip. that gravel can be put almost
anywhere in Guthrie county quite
cheaply Moreover, the State High
way Commission has a tentative ar
rangement, we are informed, where
by gravel for read purposes will be
delivered by the railroad companies
to almost any railroad station in Iowa
for Fifty cents yard On this basis,
il will not cost to exceed $500 TO
$500 per mile to gravel Guthrie
county roads, and is easily within
our reach.
Dirt roads are cursed by the I'M
certainty of the weather Put gravel
or grit upon them, or other mex
pensive surfacing. and you can go
any time. Up in Green county they
have already grayeled many miles of
highway, and so far as we can learn.
their taxes are no higher than ours.
Farmers generally are disposing of
their driving horses and more and
more depend upon the auto as a
means to get to and from their mar
ket places. They want to go to town
when its wet and unfit to work in
the field. They need roads they can
travel three hundred and sixty-five
days in the year, and they are going
to have the right TO at least vote ON
the question, regardless of the de-
magogues who are so anxious to
misrepresent them.-The Guthrian.
