A good concrete-and-asphalt highway costs $36,000 a mile—just a bare road, not counting the cost of culverts, bridges, etc. Our railroads couldn’t be duplicated tpflay for $150,000 a mile. They are capitalized for only $71,000 a mile- much less than their actual value. Seventy-one thousand dollars today will buy one locomotive. English railways are capitalized at $2 74,(XX) a mile; the French at $155,000; German $132,000; even in Canada (still in pioneer development) they are capitalized at $67,OCX) a mile. The average for all foreign countries is $100,000. <S»wîrs CHICHESTER SPILLS 1 Wesley Holland. Harvard's "iimn of mystery,” baa all Cambridge puzzled.
