Highway Expert Tells Why the Government Should Help. HAS THE RIGHT AND ABILITY. Secretary of Farmers' Qood Rosda Laagua Pointa Out How Stataa Can Ba Halpad by Bond laaue Oafinlta Conoluaiona on Construction Methods. II. a. Gross, secretary of the Farm era' Good Bonds league, has written as follows from Chicago to the editor of the New York Tribune oo the sub ject of bulldlug Improved highways: Should the federal government by a bond Issue assist the states to build public roads? If so, to what extent? The answers to the above questions Involve the consideration of several things first, the right of the govern ment to do so, the need of It, Its ability uud, last, whether It Is a wise policy to adopt. In the brief space available we must assume the necessity for good roads; that their condition affects mar ket conditions and thus concerns nil the people; that bad roads are pro ductive of a great and preventable waste that amounts to several dollars a person a year; that one of the great est needs for the social and ecouomlc development aud welfure of all the people Is good roads. As to the right or power of the fed eral government to build or assist to bulid highways, section 8 of article 1 of the constitution says among other things: Consresa shall have power "to establish postomces and post roada." More than 40 per cent of all the high ways aud moot of the main roads are used for rural mall delivery aud so are postroads In the meaning of the consti tution. President Monroe In a mes sage to congress May 4, 1802, says: In whatever aense the term "establish" la applied to postomcea It must be ap plied In the aanie aense to post roads. Cooley In his book on constitutional law says: Every road within a state, Including railroads, canals, turnpikes and naviga ble streams, existing or created within a atate, becamo a post road whenever by action of the poetofllce department pro- vision is made lor the transportation of the malic upon or over It. The above la deemed sufllclent to show the government bus tho unques tionable right to luiprovo highways used for rural mall delivery. Article 1, section S,- olauso 1, provides In part: "The congress shull have power to lay and collect tuxes, duties. ImtHirts ' and excises to pay the debts mid provide for the common defenso and general wel fare of the United States." Is not highway improvement for the general welfare? On March 14, 1H1H, tho house of rep resentatives passed the following reao lutlon: Resolved, That congress has power un der the constitution to appropriate money for the construction of post roads, mili tary and other roada and of cunals and for the Improvement of waterwuya. Among the early statesmen who bold that the federal government had ample powor to build roads were Jefferson, Madison, Clay, Webster, Calhoun and othors. Tho government bus expended mil lions on the old Cumberland road and a number of military roads, establish ing a precedent. The public roads of Doarly every civilised country In the world bavo .been built In whole or In part by Its general government. It Is the only plan that has over succeeded. It Is thu world precedent. As to the need for better highways no argument la necessary. The gen eral government Is expending Kld.uUO, 000 a year on rural delivery. Accord ing to Senator llnnkhead of Alabama, the postottlce department estimates that uniformly good roads would mean longer routes, more regular service aud a saving of 20 per cent In tho coat. Thus the loss to tho KwtolHre depart ment due to bud roads Is now $7,XX),. 000 a year and Is Increasing an the service Is extended. It will soon reach 110,000.0(10 a year. While bad roads en tail a loss to the ntall service of $7, 000,000 to 110,000,000 a year, tho loss to tile farmura and consumers of farm produce cannot be less than twenty times as much. As to the ability of the federal gov ernment to assist In building good roada, how liettnr can we Judge this than by cominrlug the dobt er capita of our country with tho lending nations of tho world that have built good roads aud found It paid to do so? The per capita debt of Germany, ac cording to tho Chicago Dolly News Al manac aud Year Hook for UHiH, Is $4W; England, f.SH.l3; Italy, S2; Hpaln, $W; France, $144, and the United Htatrs, $11.11. The amount of ammni Inter est charge to be met by a clthteu of Germany Is $2; France, $rt.(W; Kngland, i 47; I'nlted States, cents. The panic of 1IV7 was occasioned largely by the enormous demand fur currency "to move the crops." Why need the crow lie moved with such baste and at such great Inconvenleure fo the railways and so completely drain the cities of money as to cause a panic and the loss of many tulllloua? The farmer knew the winter and lad road season was approaching and tuist If he didn't gst'hls crops or lefose the roods broke up be didn't ksaw bow lung the emlwrgu of bad rvni would prevent hhn from doing so. Another factor was the InsnfflcletC f oount of government bonds to scire as the basis or national bank circula tion. As no bonds were available the banks could Dot Increase their circula tion, as they would have been glad sTi do and which woold have Immedi ately rellevajt the financial strata. The country needs good roads, and It seeds larger debt (strange as tost nay louudi. Out ot this dilemma the way Is easy. If the federal government was to Issue as needed $400,000,000 of 2 per cent thirty to Bfty year bondB to aid In road building It would carry tbe na tional debt up from $11.11 to $15.55 and the Interest charge from 20 to 89 cents per capita. The debt per capita then would be almost exactly where It was ten years ago. It would require $8,000,000 a year to pay the Interest on the bonds, but ev ery dollar of it would be saved upon the one Item of rural delivery. Of the 2,100,000 miles o' highways about 000,000 miles are post roads, and about 800,000 of these are unimproved. The $-100,000,000 for nntioual aid would give about $500 a mile, or about 25 per cent or the average cost or building bard roads upon tbese high ways. After ten years of study of road building at borne and abroad thu writer has reached the following definite con clusions: First. That If wa are to have good roads within a generation tho federal government must assist In building thorn Second. That the government contribu tion tie pro rated among the states as the work Is done on the busls of one-hair the gross sum upon the full road mlli-ugi-of the state and one-hulf upon the basis of population. The plan works out fairly to all tne stutcs. Tins plan would mniu avallable out of $100,000.(100 approximately 12,000.000 for New York. I2il.ooo.ou) foi Pennsylvania. B2.O00.O00 for Illinois. 118,- 000.000 for Ohio, flS.Ooo.000 for Michigan. etc. Third. That the actual construction of the roads should bo done under state su pervision upon specification approved by (ho United Btates government engineers. Fourth. That the Initiative should hi left with the respective townships road Jlstrlcts or parishes, these to furnish ai least one-third of the total cost, with tin 4tate clothed with power to veto any Im iirovcment If of Insulllclent Importance. This powor would prohahly be seldom If ever used. It may be assumed If the road vas not a main highway and needed thv ,oople of a township would not vote to hulhl It when they had to raise at loam one-third ot the money required to do so. Fifth. That If this country Is to fulfill Its high destiny uud meet the require ments placed upon It by Its wealth, posi tion snd Its opportunity good roads are a paramount necessity, and to get them speedily requires both federal and stnte old to hearten the people to undertake this great work. Qood roiuts will do more for the educational, social and economlo development of the whole country thar. any other alngle agency. Marked for Death. "Three years ago 1 was marked for death. A grave-yard cough was tear ing my lungs to pieces. Doctors fail ed to help me, and hope had fled, when my husband got Dr. King's New Discovery," says Mrs. A. G. Williums, of Uac, Ky. "The flrBt dose helped ine and Improvement kopt on until I had gained 08 pounds In weight and my health was fully restored."

Af ter an Interval of 32 years, Turkey tndny entered upon a second attempt at constitutional government with the Inauguration at Constantinople of tho new Parliament elected under the constitution promulgated by the SuMnn In July of this year. The Sultan opened parliament In liersun with elaborate ceremony, fnsliUined after tho customs of similar assemblies, Tho scene was, perhaps, ono of tho most reinnrkitblo In tho political history of tho world. All tho creeds and races of tho Turkish Empire sent their duly elected rep resentatives. Tho many varied cob I times of the delegates, sumo In Mowing silk robes and others In tho fashionable frock coat, formed a gorgeoita aud multi colored picture never before witnes sed In a legislative gathering In Ett roiw. As fnr as can be judged from sttr foce Indications, tho new parliament hits entered upon Its duties with a united (leterml)intion to carry out successfully the alms of tho bloodless -revolution which tnnilo possible the Inauguration of a constitutional re gime In Turkey.
