are under construction, and it is
expected that work on third, over
the hill val Kull, between Bayonne,
N. j., and Port Richmond, will start
in the spring. The latter will have
an arch span of 1,640 feet long and
will cost $16,OO0,OOO.
Further up, at 178th Street in
New York, work has been started
on the Fort Lee bridge over the
Hudson. 1t will have suspension
span $500 feet long. Authority has
been granted for issuance of $780,
100000 bonds to complete the
bridge. Traffic over the bridge is
estimated at S,0OO,OO0 vehicles in
1882 and twice that many in 1850.
1t is not the total cost, but rela-
ton between the costs and the bene-
fits, which determines whether a
highway, a tunnel or a bridge is a
good investment. The cost can be
determined accurately in advance.
The number of vehicles using the
road or bridge, multiplied by the
saving to each vehicle, will deter
mine the benefits.
On the basis of the cost per We
hicle mile, Minnesota's trunk high
ways have not only proven a good
investment, but the cost, instead of
being "a lot of money" is small COM
pared to the saving to vehicle own
ers.
Figured on the basis of the cost
per vehicle mile, the paved high
ways carrying heavy traffic, are the
cheapest roads in the state, and the
graveled trunk highways, although
they cost more than pavements. are
cheaper than our dirt roads. And
| the sooner some of the more heavily
travelled trunk routes are paved, the
cheaper it will be in the long rum

IRON ORE AND TAXATION.

"This year the iron mines OF
Northeastern Minnesota mined and
shipped, according to State Auditor
Chase, 35,763,2S3 tons. A large
part of this ore was mined in st.
Louis county. The Minnesota mines
according to the same authority,
supplied seventy per cent of all the
ore used in the United States.
1.-THE state is not only a harsh
and unjust tax-master over this
great business, it is proprietor as
we'll. The state-owned mines were
discovered on the swamp and school
lands owned by the state which re-
ceived these properties from the
United States, although at the time
the existence of ore on the lands
was not known.
at is not clear whether these
totals include ore converted into
merchandise at Minnesota steel mills
but in any case the home consump-
ton is small compared to the ship
ments.
''The time is ripe for Minnesota
to consider whether it should not
foster and protect its mining indus
try, rather than hamper it by ruth
less exactions. Here as every
where the power to tax is a power
to destroy. There are vast deposits
of ore elsewhere. Minnesota does
not nave it all.
"In this country there is iron ore
in Michigan and in the south.
Abroad there are great deposits In
Sweden, Cuba Brazil and China. In
all other jurisdictions the taxing
authorities favor the development of
the iron ore industry. But hereto
fore Minnesota ore, because of its
accessibility and quality, has been
favored in the markets.
"These outside interests are
awake, and if the present burden of
this business is not lightened there
is danger ahead.
This plea is for the homss of
Northeastern Minnesota, for its
farms, cities and villages, for its
schools and it's churches. Mime
sofa must watch its step in this
business. Let in not forget thai the
power to- tax is a power to Destroy"

HOW MUCH is
"A LOT OF MONEY!"

Sometimes we hear people say
that this or that highway improve
ment is costing lot of money. Yet
there are single projects in other
parts of the country that cost as
much as is spent on the whole Min
nesota trunk highway system this
year. And there are some projects
that are costing two or three times
as much.
Recently two vehicular tunnels
under the Hudson river, connecting
New York and New Jersey, were
opened. Their cost was over $48,-
100000. The daily cost for ventila-
ton, lighting, policing, etc., will run
into thousands. Yet the first weeks
tolls indicate that after paying in
ter"st and fixed charges, there will
be enough income to retire the bonds
in less than twenty years.
Near where Washington crossed
the Delaware, a suspension bridge
was opened last year, connecting
Philadelphia, Pa, and Camden, N.
j., which cost $37,000,000. The
center span, 1,750 feet, is now the
longest in the world. Motorists seem
to be willing to pay enough toll to
cover the cost.
Out in California they have tent
ative plans for suspension bridge
over the Golden Gate, With a span
of 4,01O feet. 1t is estimated that
the bridge, if built, will cost $27,-
100000.

EXTREMIST DRIVING
FOUND IN 3 TYPES
Brakejammer, Speeder and Excess
sively Slow Motorist Are De.
clared Most Annoying.

There are three types OF motor car
operators who are source of fear
and annoyance to other drivers and
to pedestrians as well, according to
Spencer B. Curry, vice president of
the Great National Insurance Co. of
this city, who has given considerable
attention to traffic matters.
Zone type" says Mr.. Curry In de-
scribing the groups, approaches a
through traffic street or stop signal
at full speed and then suddenly jams
on the brakes. Pedestrians and other
motorists know that they have the
right of-way and that the law Is with
them, but they do not know that
this particular motorist Is familiar
with the law, or that he will obey it
even if he is. So they wait until he
has come to a full and complete stop.
Consequently, all traffic is retarded.
ESPECIALLY dangerous and ex-
tremely annoying is the driver who is
content only when he is passing at
top speed everything he encounters
on the street or highway. Regardless
of width of the highway, density of
traffic, the number Of hills or curves,
he simply must overhaul whatever
and whoever is ahead of him. This
type is responsible for many serious
and fatal accidents
Mr.. Curry states that the third
type of driver he has in mind, the
overcautious motorist, deserves par,
ticular notice because he carries to
dangerous extremes certain virtues
which, If properly and wisely exer-
cised, would result in smoother and
a more accident-free movement OF
attic over the streets and highways.
THE Overcautious driver" Mr..
Curry says. lis almost as great a
traffic hazard as the man who speeds.
He himself is relatively safe. but he
encourages speeding on the part OF
other drivers. He encourages pass
ing in heavy traffic. He is at his
worst outside the city. but he causes
plenty of trouble in the city as well.
IT only he would remember that
safety does not necessarily mean
Unfortunately slow driving. it would
help matters very considerably"
