tUTUBDAY NOVEMBEB 81, HS'Jl
The Eugene public schools main-
lain a high standard oi ewx-uwiuc.
ttrnzil'a revolution seems to be
flourishing. It will probably cm
in ilia recall of the kind old cm
peror, Uom Pedro. A republic
cannot be founded on ignorance.
The New York mugwump wil
be in sorry fix at the next prctti
dential election. All parlies are
inn eorrunt for him. It matters
little what he docs, as his numlx
is small.
Eugene has excellent summer
streets. Hereafter our energies
should be directed to securing
winter Hrwt. The nrescnt is
good time to mako observations
and see what is needed. It is evi
dent that nothing but cleun gravel
should bo UHcd for the top dressing.
Where half the material is loam
and rutii 1 cwxl winter roads may
not be expected. Almost any street
will answer in summer.
There is nothing so unprofitable
as tho old-fuHhioned dirt roau. ii r.
Tonon TV Pnttar. Secretary of the
New York State Roads Improve
Association, has written
an admirable articlo on this phase
of the topic which opjiearB in the
November numlcr of the Forum.
IIo makes an assertion which will
hardly bo denied by any ono whose
experience enables him to contrast
good roads with bad, that "the
American common road may right
fully assert itself as tho most ex
pensive and by all odds tho most
extravagantly maintained of all
tho publio institutions." He says
further, and it is equally true, that
"an amazing share of this cost (of
hauling farm products to tho near
est market town) is made up by
tho difficulties of wagon road trans
portation, necessitating scant loads,
long delays, mud blockades, break
downs and extra trips."
The profit of good roads is at
onco realized. England and Wales
maintain their system of roads for
4,000,000 a year. Franco main
tains 190,000 miles of road at 118,
000,000. At tho rate of expendi
tures for highway purjroses, in a
isnglo town of Westchester county
where tho roads are very bad the
annual cost of maintaining 130,000
miles 'of common dirt road would
be more than 70,000,000 This
indicates sufficiently tho public
profit from good roads, whilo the
pofit of individual property-owners
is almost incalculable.

' Ono year and a half works wonders
even In the Improved appearance of a
elty. After a lapse of the alvo men
tioned period, we return to Eugene atiej
ore OHtonlMlied to be unable to set any
bounds to the eueroaclinients made on
familiar BtreeU by rojrnHlve men.
There were new brick blocks on main
thoroughfares, wooden structure for
bUNlniDM purposes 011 otnor streets, ele
gant residences in all parts of the elty,
uro lights, street railway and boys ery

the whole situation of little over a year
ago became changed. Perhaps the
greater change of all Is the.largu num
ber of strange faces to lie met with on
all streets and engaged In all avoca
tions, while artlstlcully fitted store
rooms and mammoth stocks of goods
where Improved nietropolltlon methods
are adopted for their sale cause the
alwentee of so short a time to wonder if
this Is the Eugene of only a few days
ag I Then we bear new railroad and
telegraph lines talked of as a necessary
adjunct to present and future develo
ments, and when these plans are con
summated, It will render Eugene wim
ble of being a commercial center and
distributing point for a much larger
territory, and the proposed railway to
tho sea at Florence, when completed,
will place Eugene In a position to la
come powerfully aggresHlve when she
