voX PopULI
CONCRETE, PROPERLY USED,
MAKES THE BEST HIGHWAY

Editor Pensacola Journal.
The farmers of Escambia county,
before voting on the one million dol
lar bond issue, should know how many
miles of concrete road this money
will build and the kind of road best
adapted to this country.
The Farm and Preside in it's last
issue on concrete roads has this to
say: Concrete roads built in the
United States during 1914 cost on
the average $11,o21.OO per mile.
These roads were sixteen feet wide.
Some roads were built not SO wide
and costing less money per mile, some
as low as $1,000 per mile, where the
sand and gravel used were near and
abundant. Two kinds Of roads are
built, one Of a one-ccurse mixture
the full depth, and one Of q two
course mixture with not 30 much ce-
inent for the base and foundation with
q wearing surface Of richer mixture;
the lower course built on a crowned
grade and the same grade continued
until the road is finished. This pre-
vents water from entering the road
way from below and makes it longer
life structure. A concrete road, If
built right, is the cheapest of all
permanent roads, and costing less for
its upkeep."
We have two concrete pavements in
this city that are not satisfactory
because we took just what the con-
tractor gave rs, knowing very little
about it ourselves. It has been an
expensive experience to us, but we
will not make the same mistake
again.
The best concrete road construction
requires the greatest care in the Sc
lection of material, in uniformity, in
measurements and the actual work in
building, even though the specified
propositions of sand, gravel and ce-
ment are correct if there are any va
riations in the mixture, the road viii
only be as good as its poorest spots
Many think that low quality sand ant
gravel and poor workmanship can b.
cured by the use of good cement. Thi.
is an error. Careful attention t,
every detail will produce a concret,
road that Is permanent. It is falls.
economy to use poor materials.
Cracking in concrete road il
usually caused by q less thickness
OF concrete placed in the center tina,
at the edges.
Wayne county, Michigan, began tn,
construction of concrete roads sever
years ago, has now the best system o
roads in the United States, and is still
building them.
| If Escambia county undertakes thi
work, put q business man in charg
that will give US one hundred per cen
value for the money expended.

Late Senator Morgan's
Predictions Being Fulfilled.

Time and costly experiences are
proving the much-discussed predic-
tions Of the late Senator John T. Nor
gan Of Alabama true concerning the
Panama canal.
Senator Morgan always contended
for the Nicaragaa route and predicted
that the land-slides and earthquake
shocks would always menace the PAN
anna route and cause 50 much trouble
and expense to the United States gov
eminent that it would ultimately have
to be abandoned.
In the advancement Of his ideas
Senator Morgan became such !
stickler for the Nicaragua route as
to Be quite obnoxious to many Of his
colleagues in the senate, especially
70 those with trans-continental rail-
road connections. Those railroads
did ell they possibly could to foster
the Panama route after they became
assured that the government was de-
termined to cut the isthmus in two
and thus shorten by several thousand
miles the water route to the Pacific
coast.
The Panama route was fixed upon
first in the fertile brain of Theodore
Roosevelt, then the president Of the
United States, who, in his charac-
teristic way, refused to listen to either
rhyme or reason on the part of adj
vocates Of any other than his pet
route. So the Panama canal zone
was purchased solely because he
championed it, and almost before bis
ideas were generally known actual
work was commenced on the big ditch
Troubles soon developed after the
work Of digging was commenced
Troubles Of one kind or another still
continue to menace the success Of thu
canal and cAuse the engineers and
the government much concern. Tha
terrible land-slides predicted by Sen
ator Morgan have come in isevera
instances sweeping everything befcrs
them and completely closing up thu
great waterway. In all probabilit,
they will continue to come and upse
all the plans and purposes Of the en-
gineers, be they ever 20 wise.
The Journal Is not "knocker," bu
this very question Of the slides ant
set-backs along the big ditch is nov
interesting the public, especial,
many Of the leading editors, from
Maine to California and from Canad:
70 the Gulf. If The Journal helps /,
can the attention of the general pub
lie to these important matters it doe
not do 20 In the spirit Of 'lnocker.
Time and experience may yet prov,
beyond question that Senator Morga,
was more right than popular in hi
persistent advocacy Of the Nicaragu,
canal route in preference to an,
\ other.

bonds. The opposition is circulating
Woods paper with its sand asphalt
propaganda and its picture of the

road. The ST. Pete Times has a car
toon of the Woods person equipped
with a nose reaching from Lake coun-
ty down into Pinellas-sticking his
nose into other peoples business. 1t
