"DIRT ROADS" AND RAINFALL
Easy to Be Seen That Good Roads
Proposition Gets Down to Cues
tion of Dollars and Cents.

Back in the boom days of railroad
building many county in full many
a middle West and western state
voted hundreds of thousands of dol
lars worth of bonds to get railroad
to cross its boundaries. This was in
the old days of pioneer poverty when
lands were selling anywhere from
$125 to SIS an acre. Some counties
are still paying off railroad bonds,
some repudiated the debt and others
have had half century of litigation
over them. However, for the most
part the roads were built and agricul-
tural development followed their com.
ing.
Something like three-fourths of all
the freight hauled by railway lines
must. first or last, pass over public
highways. II has been shown over
and over again that every ton 80
moved costs 23 cents a mile. 1t is
easy to see that the good roads prop
osition gets down to a matter of dol,
lars and cents.
Next March, or maybe April, when
we have to walk to town across the
fields; when 1t takes a six-horse team
to move load of hay a mile; when
the mail carrier cannot get around for
a week and the children miss school
on account of the mud-then we
are all for good roads. AS the mud
dries and the chuck-holes fill, we get
lukewarm. When the road-bond prop
osition comes up we begin TO talk
high taxes and either stay away from
the polls or vote against 1t.
Good roads will never come till we
change our views and keep them
changed. Left to themselves a dirt
road and rain will always mean mud.

ESTIMATING COST OF ROADS
Much Depends on Type Of construc.
ton and Amount Of Grading to
Be lonesome Figures.

The cost of a road is dependent
upon not only the type of construction
but the amount and character OF
grading to be done, the cost of labor
and materials, the width and thick
ness of surfacing, the character and
amount of drainage required, and
other factors of equal variability
Based upon general averages, it has
been ascertained by highway special
lists of the department that under
average conditions macadam roads can
be built in southern states at from
$4,000 to $4,000 per mile gravel roads
at from $500 to $4,000 per mile, and
sand-clay and topsoil roads at from
$500 to $1,000 per mile.
In New England and the other east
ern states macadam roads are report
ed at from $4,000 to $4,000 per mile,
gravel roads at from $4,000 to $4,000,
and bituminous macadam from $4,000

to $4,000. according to the character
Of construction, whether surface treat
ed, penetration or mixing method. The
bituminous type is quite general in the
eastern states.
AS indicating costs in other sections
OF country, the state highway commits.
sioner Of Michigan reported that in
1913 the average cost for macadam
roads was $4,000 per mile, clay-gravel
roads $1,000 per mile, and concrete
roads about $4,000 per mile. The
average cost of state highways con.
structed In Ohio two years ago was
$S,3S3. According to types, in 1912
the brick-paved highways averaged
Sii,G5G per mile and the macaiam
highways $3.50.
In California the first 356 miles OF
the state system Of highways cost an
average Of $S,143 per mile and con.
sisted principally Of thin concrete with
a thin coat of bitumen. The maximum
and minimum figures given are not alb
solute. but are intended to present the
usual range Of costs. The rates given
include grading. drainage, surfacing
and engineering costs.

LIQUOR MEN AND LABOR.

LIQUOR MEN AND LABOR.
Before the convention of the Amerl
can Federation of Labor there was a
demand by the liquor interests or or
CARNATIONS identified with them, that
the American Federation of Labor
line up with the liquor men in their
fight against prohibition. Mr.. Charles
Sickle, writing in the Continent, says
that the atmosphere OF the convention
was so decidedly unfriendly to such
action that the liquor men were
easily persuaded to drop the entire
question. Throughout the conven-
tion," continues Mr.. Steele, "the liquor
men were strangely quiet. refraining
from taking any part in any OF the
discussions, for fear of arousing the
enmity of anybody whose opinions
might be controverted.
"A mass meeting for the purpose OF
discussing the relation of labor to the
saloon was held on the first Sunday
afternoon OF the convention, and was
attended by about one thousand per-
sons. With the use OF government
statistics and logic which appealed to
the workers, facts were presented
which battered down the arguments OF
the liquor men that the abolition OF
the saloon would create labor panic.
The statement that the labor men
in England had not only organized
labor officials temperance fellowship
with which the best leaders were iden-
titled, but that bartenders. brewery
workers and others in the liquor In
dustry were not considered worth or
ganizing by the British Trades con.
gress. had marked effect an the au-
dience."

Remarkable Echo.

Among the most noted echoes is
that heard from the suspension bridge
across the Menai strait The sound Of
a blow from hammer on one of the
main piers OF the structure is re-
turned in succession from each OF the
crossbeams that support the roadway
and from the opposite pier at the dis
lance OF SIC feet. in addition to which
the sound is many times repeated be.
tween the water and the roadway at
the rate of 2S times In five seconds.

WAY DOWN IN ARIZONA.

A travelling salesman who goes into
every nook and corner of Arizona, Wis
iting the w. C. T. u. booth ut the PAN
ama-Pacific exposition, asked what we
knew OF the results of prohibition in
Arizona. Miss Brown, the director, re-
peated some of the statements which
had come to her from residents and
travellers, not at all knowing his atti.
tude In the matter. Then he told her
that he had been in all parts of the
state, haying gone over the territory
for fourteen years. He said: you
cannot exaggerate changed conditions.
In the mines the accidents have de-
creased 80 per cent, the efficiency has
more than doubled. and the physical
appearance OF the communities has
greatly improved. The faces OF men
look far fresher, healthier and happi,
err. business has improved greatly,
Merchants and other business men
who formerly opposed prohibition on
the ground of injury to business are
now Its greatest boosters and would
not allow return to old conditions.
Prohibition has come to stay In Ari-.
zona." The visitor admitted that he
had always been accustomed to take
his glass OF beer and liked a glass of
wine with his meals. but declared
there is MT one argument for the con-
tinuance OF the liquor traffic.

THERE'S A MORAL.

From the Sacramento Union comes
the following: A well-known resident
OF Sacramento the other day met on
train two men and their wives who
had come from Kansas seeking farms
in California. He asked them why
they did not investigate the country
around Sacramento, as it offered many
opportunities for the home-seeker.
They replied that they had spent
three days in this city and had been
much impressed with what they saw.
But" said one Of them, Sacramento
has entirely too many saloons for
u.s. and the farmers roads are lined
with roadhouses, so we decided to go
elsewhere to locate"
