The El Dorado
The state engineer of New York In a
recent report says that In 11107 New
York built 311 miles of good roads
and In HMM 8’20 miles. The taxpayers
hnve authorized the expenditure of
$50.000,000 for mads, and the legisla
ture has added $11.000,000. It is stat
ed that the contention for good roads
had to be waged for years to get the
work started. The farmers were the
strongest In opposition. New Jersey
and Massachusetts took up th«« work
before New York, but now the Em
pire State is getting in line. By tbe
time the $'¡1,000,000 shall have been
spent the three states, which all join
at points, will have a great system of
roads. Ono may leave Philadelphia
and reach Boston on highways smooth
and solid. A good automobile may
easily l>ont the trains on this trip, and
surely the pleasure la much greater.
