THE COST OF POOR HOA VS.
An interesting contribution to the dis
cussion of Americau country roads cornea
from Prof. Richard T. Ely, who affirms
that "poor roads cost this country on the
average over $20 a horee." He is sus
tained by Prof. Jenks of Knox college,
who thinks "$15 a horse is a low esti
mate for this loss." The board of trade
of KKOxville, Tenn., has laso mado the
suggestive computation that bad dirt
roads cost the people of that one com
monwealth more than $7 ,000,000 a year.
From tables made from other etatistics
it is also declared that on a gravel road a
horse will draw nearly one and a half
times the load, and ou McAdam over
three times the load lie can draw ou the
common dirt road.
The . losses from time cousuuied,
from . wear on beast and vehicle
and from repairs in indirect ways, fall
principally, of course, upon those engag
ed in agricultural pursuits. The average
cost which produce -carriers bear in haul
ing fo the ICnoxville market from the
surrounding farming region is estimated
at $7.50 a load. This average it is authori
tatively stated, could be reduced one
half upon good dirt roads and five-sixths
ever good McAdam roads. That is to
say, one of the chief expenses borne by
farmers is doubled through the extravi
gant economy which perpetuates poor
roads. 'It is, comparatively speaking, a
saving of cents anda spending of dollars.
Tho amount of money annually lost in
this country from coast to coast through
badly kept highways can only be guessed
at, but it is something enormous.
After detailing many public nuisances
in Chicago, the News closes its list as
follows: "Hilt ihp worst jannt .vp
Here conies the' great prizo howler of
the west side. He can be heard as soon
as he turns the corner of the second
block. There is no music in his voice,
tar from it. It is impudent and exas
perating. It makes one mad to hear it.
It is pitched in the key in which he can
make the most noise and produce the
most discordant yell. With mouth dis
tended from car to ear he. frantically
shouts: "Wa-hoo wa-hoo wa-hoo wa
oop wo-oop wo-op wow!" Hisinfernal
lingo has no more reference to the gar
bage he peddles than the wail of a west
side street-car conductor has to the
names of tho streets. He has the gift
'. of continuance and keeps it up until it
. dies away in tho distance, and ,
- Sllenee the p- ultice comes
To heal the woes of sound."
In securing a $10 fine against the
Cicero policeman who clubbed a peace
ful cyclist the other day, tho League of
American wheelmen did more than pun
ish a brutal officer. It advertised the
fact that men on two wheels have as
much right on the public highway as
- men on four wheels. These rights, how--ever,
do not give wheelmen the special
privilege of racing at full speed through
the down-town streets.
The intelligence that President Har
rison had issued a proclamation against
Canada created no little excitement in
Ottawa. The members of tho Canadian
-government are not disposed to express
tiny decided opinion as to what action
-Canada will take, but it is the general
"Impression that the Ottawa government
MvlH call an emergency meeting of the
cabinet and abolish -the rebate system
altogether. - .
The British Commons have voted no
confidence in Lord Salisbury. The day
is not far distant when, upon a "fair
-trade" or a protectionist jlatform, like
that of our own republican party, Lord
Salisbury will have the confidence of the
British Empire; Free trade is in the-i
throes of dissolution in the land of its
birth.
