THE BABCoCK AMENDMENT.

The Babcock amendment is the only
comprehensive plan at present before
the people to hard surface roads con-
Meeting one county seat with every
other county seat. True, it taxes
the automobile owner, but the latter
is willing to pay and get the, era OF
good roads established in this state
within a few years.
A dirt road and log drag are both
good for keeping roadway IN TAR
condition where traffic is moderate.
But the immense tourist business is
making Minnesota it's goal and cars
from about every state OF the union
are thronging TO the lake country.
The dirt roads, even when reinforced
with clay and gravel, are giving way
and chuck holes galore are sprlnglng
up.
During the McGarry Walker tour
one car broke its frame negotiating
the Jefferson highway. If a hardsur-
faced road is desired now, if Mime
sofa is to hold its ever increasing
volume of tourist trade benetittlng
alike farmer, merchant, hotelman, lake
resort man, ETC., then put through
the Babcock law.
Have those who object to the Bah
cock amendment anything to offer II
It's place
If any further argument is needed
for hard surface road, then drive
to Minneapolis, compare your chuck
hole dirt road with the 0sseo Mime
apolis cement paving Shortly ths
road will be all cement from St. CiouC
10 Minneapolis. Every automobile drlv
er in Minnesota has heard of Osseo
aOsseo where the cement paving be
gins is the standing phrase. Tha'
paying saves your tires, your car
your gas, your temper, your money:
The Babcock supporters could d.
no better thing than erect a larg'
sipn at the head Of the Osseo cemen
paving so that each user of the roa'
this week will read:
nVote for the Babcock amend
nent and you will travel from
your county seat TO the falr on
the same kind of cement paving.
