SENATOR PLATT IS 75.
NEW YORK, July 15. Thomas
Collier Piatt, United Stales senator
from New York, Is today 75 years of
age. Little attention wan paid to the
aged noloii by the present-day lead
ers of the party to which I'latt was
one of the national leaderH. Al
thoiiiih stripped of much of his poli
tical power and harassed by domes
tic entanglements, the senator is far
from being the broken old man thai
he Is sometimes described to be.
While tho welch t of years restB
somewhat heavily on his physical
frame, his mind is still clear and ac
tive. HLIVKIt CAUSES UM.'KJAW.

Change Needed In Road Laws.
A buck number tho bud country
road Is a back number. It Is as much
out of pi nee and date ns the grain cra
dle or hull thrasher. They bad bad
muds nway back In grandfather's time
-ever since people legan to travel, to
haul stuff in modern narrow tired
wagons. They had good roads awuy
back In CaeHar's time In the old world.
Whut progress have we made in road
building? Very little. Over three
fourths or all the miles of country
roads In the midwest are still unim
proved, says the Agricultural South
west. In most states DO per cent would
lie more ueurly correct. Of course
overy bit of road gets Its annual tear
ing up by the road uIHoIih, who draw
1 salary for culling It road "Improve
uent." Why Is It thus? There's a uunoii
vvhy country roads are had. Can't lay
t to the weulher or the road material
her. As one farmer says, "I have
teen In twenty-three years hundreds of
.huusauds of dollars of taxpayers'
money expended 011 the roads In town
md country; but, after all, our roads
.tro still us bad as ever." As bid as
ever! What u comment to make upon
tho appearance of country boine.4 had
it been said that the farms bn 1 not
beeu Improved In twenty-three years!
But, uo; the farms have Improved, tho
towns have grown, and business places
uro better than they weie tventy
tbroe years ago, but tho country roads
are "ns bad as ever" after sjiendlug
fortunes upon them.
The reason Is this road building I"
not done In tho same businesslike
manner as other things are managed.
We have seen the creamery come Into
existence. We have seen the Fkllled
buttermnkcr turning out cnrlonJs of
butter finer than that made by the
farmers before the creameries took
the job off their bunds. Belency and
business methods have . made the
change In buttermnklug. Itut the
roads are "as bad as ever" becaiiso It
la a fanner's Job, to be doue when It
suits his convenience. It Is done by
men who have never studied tli;' sci
ence of road building. It is done In a
bit and miss method devoid of busluesB
principles. This Is why hundreds of
thousands of the taxpayers' money have
failed to mnke the roads nny better.
And again we say it is not because of
bad weather or poor road building
'material. The btltternuiker takes bad
'rcani and makes pretty good butter
from It because be knows how. Of
course he could do better with good
ream. Likewise the skilled road
oullder can make good roads out of
lust plain country dirt because he
knows how. Of course he could do
better with crushed rock and all of
that. It Is not a scarcity of niun.'y or
of material, but a lack of the rL-h: sys
tem, that Is responsible for bnd rmds,
Dollar for dollar what we want to
see Is n dollar's worth of good roads
for a dollar spent In road tax. And
why not have It? Isn't It about time
o quit pouring money Into a mini
hole? , Most roads could have been
nicely paved with the dollars they
Inive cost since llrst In hi out. Where
ma that money gone? Don't cry
'graft." Of course there has been too
nmh polltlcN ah, politics; there's the
nib but there hits been no political
raft to speak of lu connection with
ountry roads. The trouble Is the sys
em Is and has been wrong. Uoad
jutldlug U for the public good. Just as
mail carrying Is. The mall carriers
ire under elvll service, out of polities
imtlrely. They are paid for knowing
'heir business. They muni give a dol
lar's worth of service for a dollar lu
pay. Why not handle the road prob
"em that way? Itetnove the road boss
from politics and make him pass nn
xaiuluntlou showing his eltlcieucy.
Keep hlui Just an long ns be does his
work well. Then you will see good
dirt roads wherever there Is nothing
better. Kuouglt money will soon le
saved In road tax to macadamise every
mile of the main traveled country
ronds,
A farmer would le foolish to go
ahead with a large Job of tiling with
mt having the whole thing mapped
iut nml levels established by some one
capable of doing It. Then he would be
equally foolish should be not study the
capacity of tile nevdod to drain the
area Intended. It Is good business
sense for him to hire a competent sur
veyor or ditcher. Just one tile put tn
wrong will nilu (lie whole plan of
dmlnnge. Hut that same farmer will
pay money every year In road tax and
let men vt ho know nothing alxmt road
building squnuii.-r the money. It 1
time this ftHtllshuesK was stopHd.
It will 1 etopiH-d when the farmers
who pay the money nml who use the
romls
get together ami demand n
(mute of system, demand that It Is?
eliminated from polities, demand that
the road laws he changed from anti
quated forms to suit the aee4 of a
pretrvsslTe at ef bsli-ss sttt.
