TRUCKS AND VOTES.

TT HE MOTOR TRUCK is heavy. So is its load
| 1t is hard on the road. Continued use by
/ trucks and buses makes necessary continu-
Gus maintenance work on the roads, else the roads
go to pieces, and heavy repair and maintenance
expense is levied on the vehicle that jots over the
roads. This is true Of any road in whatever COM
munity, city or country, where motor traffic is
/ heavy. Nor is the use of motor truck limited to
suburban truck gardeners, or to service between
city and country. More and more is the motor
truck becoming a convenience, necessity of the
farm, due to labor conditions and to the progress
of farming toward greater labor and time saving
machinery.
| Continued and extended use of the motor truck
as factor in better living conditions depends on
proper construction and maintenance of the roads
which the trucks Such construction and
maintenance, in Minnesota, any considerable
mileage of highway or any considerable range of
territory, is an impossibility under present meth
DDS of financing road work in this state Because
of this insufficiency of road money, Amendment
Number One to the State Constitution has been
presented for adoption at the polls November g.
Under it, money for constructing and maintain
ing great system of trunk highways may be
obtained, through taxation of motor vehicles &C
cording to their weight, horsepower and value
By means of the money thus to be obtained
from such motor vehicle taxation-and from no
other source-it is estimated Minnesota's 1000
miles of trunk highway may be properly con-
structed and maintained to stand up under what
ever loads shall be put upon the highways And
they will be highways properly engineered and
adapted to the traffic of the given locality-of
gravel of hard surface paving, as the traffic
may require. Suited to the traffic, these trunk
highways will make remote localities nearer
neghbors, with all that this cutting down of dis
lance through ease of transport implies. It's bene-
fits, therefore, extend to the passenger car user
as well as to the motor truck user or beneficiary
Can any man, knowing these benefits of motor
transport doubt that it is to the interest of the
non-owner of an automobile to vote for Amend
ment Number One on the pink ballot, the same as
it is to the interest of the motor owner to vote
for it?
The benefits of the amendment are for the
whole people of the state. 1t should command the
vote OF every voter, in city or country, in village
or on farm. 1t levies the cost of the trunk road
directly on the users of the road 1t promises to
pay back to such more in saving than the
tax has cost. In addition, it insures dividends as
we'll to the non-owner of motor car, by applying
all that he now pays in the way Of road taxes to
the building and maintaining of lateral or feeder
roads.
Amendment Number One-the Good Roads or
Babcock amendment the vote of every
man and woman at the polls November 2.-Minne-
apolis Tribune.

FRIENDS OF THE POOR.

II OPTICIANS always claim to be friends OF
the poor man. The majority Of are poor
men, We are not poor because of the &C
tivity or Incidence of politicians, but because of
fixed economic laws. The politician, in or out of
office, is powerless to bring US wealth. He may
pass wise and just laws that will benefit both rich
and poor, but we cannot be benefited as a class
save by our own efforts and our own industry
The poor man, meaning most of US, has a vague
and uncomfortable feeling that fate has stacked
the cards against him. He attributes much to
luck, good and bad. He feels that something is
wrong with the scheme of things, but he doesn't
know what it is that is wrong, and being unable
to solve the mystery is eager to believe each pau-
slble talker who promises to set up Utopia. His
faith is inspired by desire, not by his common
sense.
These plausible prophets of Utopia have a COM
mon fault: They believe profess to- believe
that an effect be produced without cause
and that theory of government can make oak
trees grow more rapidly than gourd vine Their
promises sweeter than honey, and we are con-
strained by avarice and laziness to put our trust
in them. But deep in our hearts we know that
the race is to the swift, and justly so. We know
that one must earn what he gets, and that pretty
theories and fine phrases cannot replace toll in the
manufacture of bread
There is but method by which we poor can
get wealth quickly. 1t has been tried on an ex-
tensive scale in Russia. 1t is very unsatisfac-
tory method. It's effect is disappointing and
transitory. When all the great blocks of wealth
have been stolen and equally divided each of the
thieves receives but pittance, and when his lit
tie store is consumed he must sweat again to pro-
duce new wealth or perish
Our sef-appointed saviors may adorn their
place and power for themselves at the expense of
theories with fine words, but their hope is to get
our degradation. A great many people may band
together and seize what they will. Even few
may succeed on a smaller scale. Jesse James and
a few kindred spirits had considerable success by
this method for time. But theft, whether indivi-
dual or collective, fails to repeal economic laws,
and no theory OF government or industry can re-
place work. Wealth is not created by the touch
OF wand. It must be produced, and in the pro-
duction of wealth there is no substitute for sweat
