A LESSON FFOM NEW JERSET.
One of the most encouraging state
ments In the report Just published of
the New Jersey road commissioner re
lates to the educational effect which
the good roads constructed In that state
have had on "the community In general
ays the New York Tribune.
versilly known that New Jersey
been one of the pioneers in road Im
provement. Six years ago an Intelli
gent system was adopted, and It has
since been carried on with remarkable j
success. Some 300 miles of fine roals
have ben built, at a cost jt nearly
$1,500,000, the state paying one third.
And now Commissioner Budd reports
that the fear of increased taxation hith
erto entertained by the farmers Is rap
idly giving way to an Inter desire
that they dhall obtain good roads soon
er than the appropriation now made
will permit. The commissioner favors
Increasing ithe appropriation t. 3ti!,,000,
which, would mean an annual expendi
ture of $1,000,009 for improved roads.
As a matter of fact the petitions of
some communities anxious to gel the
benefit of a snare of th tMe money
have been on file for yearn, and the
people interested are naturally grow
ing Impatient.
Thr-e ar3 healthy symptoms. The ex
perience l.i New Jersey Is a duplicate
of that In Massachusetts, where la?t
year not more than 15 per ccTit of the
petitions received could be acted on for
lack of money. Who can doubt that
the same thing will be seen In this
state as soon as a plan of state aid In
the construction of roads Is alopted
and put In practice? It may take a
little time fir the leaven to work, but
the ultimate results are cot In doubt.
People In Bhe rural communities must
soon have their eyes opened, and see
plainly that good roads are one of the
things they cannot afford not to have.
The state can wisely adopt a liberal
policy, and should use all the means
In Its power to start and stimulate here
a movement like those which have been
eo productive of good elsewhere. A
beginning cannot be made too prompt
ly. When Oregon commence the system
atic building of roads and .makes it
possible for her rural districts to secure
easy and quick communication with
.he principal towns .md county seats,
then, and not until then, will her waste
lands be developed to their .capacity
and population brought in. content to
remain with their surroundings.
THE NICARAGUA CANAL AM THE
'CLAYTON-ttCLWEK TMCATT.
Chicago Times-Herald
With the appearance of the llodrlnrjei
letter the Nicaragua canal scheme as
at present prupuev.l undoubtedly re
ceived Its duletut And tt was a goon
thing for the United State that th
matter has thus turned out. This gov.
trnmmt wants no alliance with a com
pany thmt after ten year has not been
able to perform any of tt pledges to
the country from which It obtained
the cairn I conoeesnwn. In fact. It Is very
apparent that the chlci object In view
of the promoters of the company was
to build up private fortunes t the ex
pense of the United Stntes, after the
fa.M(n of the Union FucMe and CiedU
MoblUer time.
One or two experiences of that kind
ought t be enough, but Inaaiuucii as
the o.nol scheme Is now likely to t.vke
the direction f s govei anient project
ttltotrrthw. perhaps It might he well to
Inquire where tmu would Und us.
There is a document on our statute
hooks known as the Clayton-Bulwsr
treaty, which date back to the year
1S49. when Zachary Taylor was presl
dent and John JI. Clayton secretary of
stat. The Nicaragua canal project was
a new thing In those days, but It was
a thing proposed. J1 " suffldont
Importance to be mentioned in a treaty.
It was accordingly pro-Vled that Great
Britain and the United States should
have Joint o.iprviion and control over
any future Nicaragua canal.
The truth la that in those days It was
supposed that if the canal was ever
built Englls money would have to
build rt. and our government was Quite
willing In such supposed circumstances
to agree to a Joint control with Ureat
Britain.
Since than on several occasions, our
secretaries have contended that this
treaty 'has been abrogated, but no Brit
ish government ha ever yielded tne
point To them It is will In force, and
by it term they can demand Joint
control with the United States, no mat
tor by wthoee money H is built.
Ought iwe not to find out where we
stand In respect to the Clayton-Bulwer
treaty before undertaking this canal?
If there as to le Joint control there
should also be Joint expenditure In
building the canal.
THE CLAYTON-BULWER TREATY.
New York Tribune.
Now that the marplot Clayton-Bulwer
treaty is up again for official considera
tion, how would this disposition of it
suit patriotic Americans?
"Every part of the treaty which for
"blds the United State fortifying the
fNk-aragua) canal and holding the po
"Uttcal control of it ta conjunction with
"the country in which It Is located to
"be cancelled.
"Every part of the treaty in which
"Great Britain and the United State
"agree to make no acquisition of ter
'rUory in Central America to remain
"to full force."
That proposition we made by James
G. Blame, secretary of etate of the
United State, on November 19, 18S1.
But. it is objected. Mr. Blaine was
wicked Jingo? Very well. Here is an
alternative proposition:
"The Clayton-Bulwer treaty was
'voidable at the option of the United1
'State. This has been demonstrated
"fully on two grounds: First, that the
"consideration of the treaty having
"failed, its object never having been
"accomplished, the United States did
not receive that for which they cove
nanted; and, second, that Great Brlt-
"ain has persistently violated her
"argeement not to colon! le the Central
"American coast."
That was what John T. Frelinghuy-
sen, secretary of state of the I nlted
States, said on July 19, 184, whom down
to the present moment no one has
dreamed of calling a Jingo.

And this is
what he wrote.
"Tint editor of the Post
took a spin over the llur
llngton road last week,
leaving Hillings Monday
at 11:30 a m. and arriv
ing In Chicago at 8:20 on
AVednewlav morning.
That Is the kind of time
tho liurllngton makes. It
Is a lightning express
time over a track the
best In the world, and
with an equipment un
riurpassod by any railway
on the continent. The re
clining chairs are superd
and the soenery all
through Wyoming, Ne
braska, Iowa, and Illi
nois, Is beautiful. The
Burlington system la
perfect. No other word
fittingly describes It."
Livingstone Post, Oct. 7,
1896.
