DR.. 6. w. Coleman Speaks
Before Large Crowd at
Baptist Church.

The fact that every man Of the
country has the right Of public
speech and of giving his opinion on
every subject. whether political. re-
Hgious or otherwise. was the thought
brought out last night by DIT George
". Coleman director of the Ford
Hall Forum OF Boston. I'm his adj

Getting Together Essential to De-
mocracy.
He spoke Of the open forum held
i'm Boston at the Ford hall where
every denomination has a represen-
tatiVe at least once a month 10 give
his views on the modern and an
cient subjects that are before the

and hear views on questions per-
tanning TO themselves, declared the
speaker The feeling of prejudice

I
right 10 speak on whatever topic
he may wish 70 bring before the

The Jew who thinks he is not

I During the past few years the
I forum proposition has grown Won
derfully and at present there are
more than $50 throughout the coun-

places where ecclesiastical and po-
I litcal troubles are at their height -
DR.. Coleman said the success OF

GOOD
ROADS
LOWER EXPENSE TO FARMERS
Good Roads Reduce Greatly Trouble
Of Transporting Crops to Market
Cause of Distress.

Before the war in Europe affected
farmer more to haul bushel OF wheat
nine and half miles to the railroad
station for shipment than it cost the
buyer to ship the same bushel of
wheat from New York to Liverpool. q
distance OF 5000 miles," according to
q bulletin issued by the American
Highway association. The average
cost Of hauling ton Of farm produce,
or ton OF anything else, over the av-
erage country road is about twentv-
three cents mile: 20 years ago the
cost Of the same service was IL cents.
The cost of hauling over the railroads
is less than one-ninth as much as it
was 60 years ago. The cost of hauling
by railroad has almost reached the
vanishing point; the cost OF hauling
on the country roads has gone up as
the roads have gone down.
by careful calculation, Logan Wal
Ter Page. director OF the United States
Office of public roads, has reached the
conclusion that with wise and equita.
bic road laws and good business man
agement 1t would be entirely practica-
BILE for the people to save themselves
on the two items of hauling and ad.
ministration the enormous sum of
| $3.50. 100000 yearly. The railroads in
the United States carry about 900 ,000,-
600 tons OF freight annually. and OF
this vast tonnage at least 200, 900, 600
tons are hauled over the country roads
to the railroad station or to the canals
for shipment. The immense volume
OF mining products aggregating mil.
lions of tons Is not included in this
estimate, but only the agricultural,
forest and miscellaneous products
hauled by wagon over the public roads,
nor is the cost of hauling back and
forth between the farms and the mills.
THE main cause Of agricultural dis
tress," says the bulletin, "a subject of
perennial alarm to popular favorites,'
Is not so much the wages of the work
ers or the infertility of the soil or the
prices OF the products, but the enor-
nous drain of getting the stuff to
market, the waste of the roads in the
wear and tear Of machinery, the sacri-
flee of teams, the inefiiciency OF serv-
ice compelled by impossible highways.
Tributary to every market town or
railroad station there are what Mr..
Page calls zones Of production
From the first of these zones all prod
ucts can be delivered to market at a
