f 4 A. 10 the lack of tbem. The novel crusade of The DlsrATCn should haTe an educating influence in Western Pennsylvania and mark a higher stage in the development of road build inc. 'While realizing the importance of a radi cal change in our poller, public opinion ia much divided ai to the best roeam for ob taining the desired cndi. There are three venues open for reform, -which we will con aider in detail. First, toll roads, conttrncted and maintained by private enterprise; sec ond, roads of a semi-public nature, bnilt by means Of public co-operation with private management; third, free roads, maintained by the public THE TAX QUESTION. The fundamental question in all legisla tion should be bow to distribute the bur dens for the support of the roads most equitably. Absolute justice is of course impossible of attainment The aim should be, however, as in all taxations, to place the tax where it is most equitably borne And where the sacrifice entailed will be in pro portion to ability to pay it. "We will con sider these three plans, with a view to dis covering, if possible, the one which most nearly satisfies these requirements and will be most beneficent In its workings. Toll Iloads It is a singular fact that toll roads have almost entirely disappeared from tho continent of Europe, England being the only country of auy Importance which still maintains this "relic of barbarism," as it has been called. Scotland abolished tliem In, 1883, while Kuclnnd is freeing herself from them as fast ns possible. Ju the United States all but ten of tho States possess toll roads, although in many of them, especially in the North and JCast, they nro rapidly going into disuse. They are usually con structed by private panics, who are per mitted to place gates at specified distances and to levy charges of a certain amount per mile. Added to this, many States provide for the forfeiture nf the charier if the roads are neglected, and for Ilia riplrallon of the charter at the end of a certain number of years. Toll roads liave soma supporter, tipeo tally among tho Houtlirrn Htulrs, mid It li urged in defense of them tlmt they dis tribute tlis tax J tut where It should lie bonis, I. ., on the shoulders ol tlioio who use the roads. AX CJCJllaT nVRTKM, M first Uutli this appears reasonable, but in reality such charges am unjust. (3 nod roads, as must be acknowledged, are a benefit to alt the land contiguous to tliew, and to the town population as well, for they greatly increase the prosperity ol the latter class. It cannot he said to be equita ble, therefore, that the traveling publlo should hear the entire burden, as thrv do not beclu to receive all tho benefit, Thus the taxing of those who use the highways is not only inequitable hut extravagant as well. Mr. Chalmers, writing on the En glish turnpike system, says: "In theory nothing could be fairer than the system ot paying road expenses by tuxing those who nse the roads in exact proportion to the use they make of them. In practice the system is both annoying and costly." Mr. Dobson has likewise described it as "the most ex travagant mode of maintaining roads which the ingenuity of man or fiend could devise." But lay matters of justice aside for the moment, and we find that toll roads are found to be very impracticable. In the first place private companies invariably permit the roads to fall into decay and neglect to keep them in good repair. Selfish interest prompts them to do this so long as forfeiture is not threatened, and the public is always lonth to resort to such euds. An additional objection is that they decrease legitimate truvei, as many persons will remain at home rather tlinn pay the toll. For this reason, toll roads are disadvantageous to a com munity. Doubtless at the time the Pittsburg and Erie turnpike was built, no other species of road was possible in Western Pennsylvania, where travel was heavy and population greatly scattered, and the farmers were too poor to maintain good tree roads. But to day a return to toll roads would be decidedly a retrogressive step, unless arrangements were made for reversion to the State at a very short period, and forfeiture in case of any breach ot contract. JL KENTUCKY EXPEEIMEJfT. Public Cc-Operatiou With Private Man agementThe second plan of private enter prise with public oversight has been tried quife extensively in the State of Kentucky, and has there resulted very satisfactorily,al though still possessing the same objection urged against private toll roads, and in ad dition the chance of jobbery and corruption which always ensues when private parties interfere with public business. The plan as adopted in Warren county, in the heart oi the celebrated blue grass region, is substan tially as follows: By an act of the State Legislature every county is autboiized to sell bonds to a cer tain percenlum of the assessed valuation of county property whenever authorized to do to by a majority of the voters of tho county. The money raised in this vtny, and tho county ling raised t'JO.OOO In three Install ments during the past five rents, Is used in constructing substantial highways under the direction of n competent rnad en gluecr. Only JI.000 of this Is expended per mile, while the renmluder ti raited either from the fanners bordering upon the romler by a private minpuiiy who possess stock to the amount ol capital Invented, and ngirn to lurnlsli mlllolrnt money to complete ami maintain the road. Ann recompense they are permitted to levy a small toll, the county (ruining the right to buy up private stock holders at any time, Tim system thus takes the form of a Joint stock corporation, the county holding somewhat Iran than half tho amount of slock. The rnnila are very well maintained, and pay at least 1'.' per cent on the money Invested, QOOl) JllCNULTH OIlTAlXItl), As tbo county pays but 0 per cent on Its bonds, the remaining 0 per cent goes Into a kinking fund, which will free them from debt in about 16 years, liy this system Warren count has seeured most excellent results, and now boasts the best roads In the State ot Kentucky. The cost ol building the roads varied ac cording to the style of roud, grades and general character of the country. Where the country was level and drainage good tho roads could be conctructed at from $1,000 to 1,600 per mile, but where hills were en countered and washouts to be prevented the road was usually macadamized at a cost of about 3,000 per mile. The experiment appears to give quite uni versal satisfaction, although au agitation is now going on to buy up the private company aud make the roads free, which will proba bly succeed. This method is certainly much preferable to private toll roads, us it insures public supervision and permits tho county to acquire a good system of roads with no expenditure ot capital. i"ree Roads. The last plan, nnd the one most usually recommended by road experts Is that of free roads, constructed aud main tained at public expense. As has been said before this plan necessitates State initiative, as the counties are usually too conservative to make a move of their own accord. A State Board ol Engineers should be ap pointed by tbe Governor to serve lor three years, whoshocld havesupervisinganthority over trie County Engineers. This board should map out the State, make suggestions to county assistants, and if practical call an annual convention of tbe County Engineers in order to co-operate and discuss matters of general advantage. This convention should be empowered to classify highways into county and township roads, State roads be ing almost impracticable under the system. SYSTEMATIC CLASSIFICATION. In classifying roads, those which are through roads, connecting large cities, in tbe same or different counties should, of course, be maintained by tbe county, inas much as the cities, as well as the country is materially benefitted thereby; while town ship roads, as those connecting larger ones or wholly local in character, should be supported and controlled by tbe township authorities. With the assistance of the County En gineer, who is indispensable for carrying out this scheme, the County Road Commis sioners and Board of Supervisors should lay out all new roads, decide upon general mat ters of expenditure and where ana how Much is to be devoted to tbe roads of the various classes. A State statute should) farther provide, First That each township, shall constitute a road district in each of which an overseer is to be ap pointed to hold office for one or more years; who shall give bonds for $500 for the fulfill ment of his duty, which Is forfeitable to the township to be used on road constructing. As a compensation for his labor he shall receive $2 per day for all time actually spent in work. Second The duties ol the overseer shall be to open new roads, keep them in such reoair as the County Engineer may think necessary and make nil improve ments which may be required. Three Each township shall be further required to ereet guide boards at every cross roads nnd keen tbem in good repair. Fourth The overseer shall beside make estimates and re ceive bids for all important improvements to be made and shall grant the work to the lowest bidder. Fifth He shall receive and disburse all money coming Into his posses sion and turn over an account of the same to his successor. TOWKsnir AtrrnontTY. Sixth The Township Board shall pur chase all tools and implements necessary for building and maintaining the road. Sev enthThe Township Board shall bavo power to levy a pcrcentum tax on all prop erty in tho township, which taxes are col lectible by the Treasurer, and are to bo kept separately as highway lunds, to be used for this purpose. It may be alio enacted that tuxes may be worked out when It can be done advantageously, but tho bulk of taxes must be paid In cash. When the board has determined upon ft tax rule to be levied for permanent Improvements, the proceeds of tho tnx may he anticipated and township bonds be issued, bearing 'not more than 0 per cent interest, to tho nmount ol not nioro than one-half what tho tax will yield In five years, Tho amount realized In this way may ho at once expended In Improvements. Ninth The overseer shall have power to compel nil toll companies Which may exist to mnlntaln Iheir toads In specified condi tion or forfeit their olinrler to examine their honks ntid exercise supervision over all their nets. These are the essential feature! of the law proposed by the League of American Wheelmen nt their recent meeting and whloli they derided to havo presented tn the various Slate jilliirtii and make an Ac tive canvass far its eiiACtinent. The Hoelety of Kngliieers of Western Pennsylvania have likewise taken a stand wlileh argues much for their progressive, nou, wlilla thenctlve crusade of Tub Dis patch has done a great deal to expose the wretched condition of our highways nnd arouse the people to the necessity of tome action. Such are the main features which should be Included in the act, although many other details of Administration may perhaps be added. Having determined these matters of ad ministration, it may be well tn consider the best method of road construction as well as how tbe additional expense may be easiest borne by the counties. county fjnanceekino. As this is the field of the engineer it will not he possible to go into the many details of road construction, but rather to stato those systems which have been advantage ously tried in other sections. If free roads are contemplated, and they are for reasons enumerated by far the most desirable, the county should proceed to sell bonds to the amount required to construct the roads. Such bonds can usually bo dis posed of at par and if they be lone time bonds, doubtless no more "than 4 to C per cent interest need be paid. The debt thus incurred must be liquidated by means of taxation. Iu case 5 per cent is the rate of interest paid on the bonds, by creating a sinking fund of 2 per cent at compound interest, the entire principal may be paid off in about 35 years nnd tbe county will have enjoyed the benefit of the reads in the meantime. The county will thus pay but 7 per cent on tbe capital invested, which would incur but slight inerease in taxation. By our present wasteful system we are paying a heavy road tax without receiving in return any improvements in our high ways. Doubtless in 35 years more than enough will be paid in taxes to construct good macadamized roads, and at the end of that time the roads will be in no better con dition than nt the present time. The creation of the debt is the only ob jectionable feature of the plan, as maDy counties are already heavily burdened. The State, however, might here interpose and lend its aid. Iuttead of the State construct ing the roads itself, which for manv reasons is objectionable, it might lend to the differ ent counties the surplus accumulated in the State Treasury, which it now loans to tho favorite banks'at the low interest rate ot 2 per cent. ADVANTAGES OF THE ThAX. The people would thus roup some benefit from the surplus taken from their pockets to enrich the selected few. There could be no constitutional objection to such a disposi tion ot these fundi, and there Is no way In which they could he milked to better ad vantage. 'it would bo very desirable if every county could consliuct innaailamlzed roads and that nf course should he the ultimatum. A short description ol this construction and esti mated cost may not be uninteresting, These roads were first Introduced Into Kngland by Mr. MoAiUm, where they found great favor. They have likewise of lete years been much used In this country In small cities. To niako them It very simple when onee understood, JCvery good road built upon this system requires two component parts. One the loundAtlun consists of large stones nr cobble stones as they ere commonly called, which must be perfectly solid and porous. Tho other, the upper layer Is to be of light atones, easily compso tlble Into solid form by the addition of the top coating ol dirt or annd. The smaller stones are urokon by machine or hand nnd must be small enough to pass through a ring from iyi to 'jyi Indies in diameter. In Germany It has been louud that river gravel may be utilized Instead, forming almost as good a top dressing as broken itonc, which iu Weitern Pennsylvania would entail a great saving. Theso constituent parts are bound together by the addition of sand and afterward rolled with a steam roller. COST OF MACADAM. Roadbeds should never he leu than 12 and seldom less than 10 feet In width. The cost ot such a roud varies, of course, with the character of the road country, grades and difJlcultv of obtaining the necessary ma terial. In Western rennsylvunlu, where stone of the right kind is easily obtainable, the cost need not exceed (3,300 per mile, which Is tbe usual estimate. In Kentucky the roads were only macadamized where the hilly character of the country rendered any other kind of road hard to maintain. In other places gravel roads were constructed, which have been found to be very durable. For these the substratum to the depth of six or cignt inches is of hard-picked river gravel, faced with dirt and lighter material. Such a road when properly maintained makes almost as good a road as macadamizing and may be constructed for about one-third the cost, good gravel roads being built at (1,000 to $1,500 per mile. Such is a brief ontline of a system which should be adopted in Pennsylvania. By our present method every cent of tar ex pended in keeping up our roads is wasted; by the new system every dollar invested in new highways lessens tbe tax necessary to maintain them, further legislation along old lines will do little good; as for the new, time alone will tell how much longer the present waste is to continue.

THE OURDADMES'DOLLAR History of the First Coins Made by the United Stales. Government IN THE OLD PHILADELPHIA MINT. Dimes Coined From General Washington's Private Plate. PEESSING NEED FOB A SEW BUILDING r wmtte.v ros thi sisrATcn. A recent article in The Dispatch upon the bill now before Congress providing a new mint building for Philadelphia has at tracted considerable notice both there and at Washington. If this present cramped con dition of tbe Philadelphia mint, iu which there Is no longer either light or ventila tion for the employes, excepting what ti fur nished artificially, establishes a need for a new condition of things. Meantime the history of the Philadelphia mint has many points of tntercit. Tho tint building or tho purpoio was situated on Seventh street below Arch, a little brick structure, part of which is still standing In the rear of ono of tho massive edifices put up during the pnst few yean. It was foundod in 171)2 under tho peisnnnt supervision of Washington, who was thou President, and Knhcrt Morris, the great llevolutlou nry financier, both of whom resided nt the then icat of Government, Washington was especially Interested In the erection of the building and was n uany visitor to watch It progress, nnd was eager to have tho colni of the hew Itepubllo limed ai speedily ns possible, Tlili cngornoss wni shown by hli furnishing sliver from his own private collection of plate to strike tome times and half dlmei, before the entire ooni. pletlon of the lailldmgl and there are now In our mint cabinet several pieces of this period that were itruok At hU personal re quest from that material to satisfy his laud able ambition to see And possets United Htntes coin i. This wti in the latter part of 1702, Together with a few copper pattern pieces of tbe half dollar And quarter dollar these were the only pieces struck before the general operations of the mint commenoed In 1703, They may be considered as really experimental; for Congress was not able to supply any material for coinage until tbe latter year, BEFORE THE AOE OF GOLD, It seems rather strange to say to this gen eration that only 07 years ago, in the time of their grandfathers, that this great coun try was then so poor and so little developed that its Congress, which now can appropri ate hundreds of millions yearly for its gen eral expenses, could not then furnish the metals to manufacture Its own coins; and in the year 1793 nothing but copper came to hand for this purpose, and that in such lim ited quantity that only a lew cent pieces could be struck, which fact is evidenced to-day by tlie premiums paid for the cent issue ot 1793. The silver coins struck for Washington were the onlv ones made nrevi- ous to 1794, which gives them additional value as relics and make them exceptionally interesting from these associstions. In this little building all the coins were manufactured for the United States until the year 1832, (when the present mint build ing was erected.) The appliances for the work to be done were very meager when compared to those of to-day. The motive power for driving the machinery which con sisted of a pair of upright rolls, was a stout horse attached to a long lever walking round a circle, dragging the lever after him, which by its connections at the other ex tremity set the rolls in motion (Just like the method now used in agricultural regions to grind apples for cider making), and the metal being introduced between the rolls was gradually reduced to the proper thick ness, or thinness would be more proper probably. This was a work of cousideiable magnitude then ns any one may know and annreclnte who has worked nt a cider mill grinding apples and been swearingly pro voked at THE FOUIt-LEOrJEDMOTOIt forgetting stuck when n particularly hard core got last in the mill during the grinding process. It required the expenditure of con siderable time. The metal, of course, had to be first reduced to the approximate size on the anvil and the rolls vgavo it the regu larity and finish necessary tor the next oper ation of cutting out the blanks or plauoheti (a term given to tho discs of metal before stamping), which was done by baud, much Ilka a blacksmith punching iron, ouly that the Instruments tued for cutting out these thin blanki were Iu perleot condition nnd out the piece clean. Tlili done, tho blntiKi were annealed or softened and were ready to receive the Impression of the dies. The press of tlmt day was n screw oper ated by a long lever extending eight to ten feet on either side. There were two diet, the upper and lower, ui now, the lower one being seouraly tetin the bate, and the upper one In ah Iron blook fitting Above, wlileh brought the die In dlreot oontiet with the coin to be made. Then one man would take hold of either end ot the lever And run iwlltly as possible forolng the lever before them, thus bringing thosotew down upon the upper block with ns great an Impsqt as be could, which produced tho Impression of both dies upon the blank, making It n per fect coin, This was a slow process, nnd could not probably produce more than one coin In a minute or more, as the men oper ating the lover had to reverse their run to ralso the screw up to a sufficient height to Insert a new blank, but It seemed to be suffi cient for the timet, and although wo at this distance laugh at tho primitive method, no doubt tho operators of that period were as proud of their work as wo are now of the beautiful artlstlo finish to which we are id accustomed as to scarcely notice it. GItOWTI! OF THE WOU1C, The force of workmen at that period was also quite small. A list of employes then' in the service now hangs In the mint cabinet and consists of 19 able-bodied men and 2 women, with pay ranging Iroiu 50 cents to $180 per day. .They had 5 adjusters. They now have nearly 1!90. Then 1 roller, now 15; 1 pressman, now 25 press women; 1 anuealer, now 12; 1 doorkeeper, now 10 or 12, and 1 hostler to fire up the motive power; oesiue mat a Doy, prcsumnuiy to run the mail, as the allowance ot drink money was not abolished until 1825. As time went ou and the Increase of popu lation and business required, the Inventive genius that has since accomplished such wonders was at work, and improvements were made in tbe appliances, and the output increased until like at the present time the demand outgrew the source of supply, and the remedy was furnished in the present plant This was a tremendous leap for the time, and gives evidence of the large and broad-minded views of the states men of that period, who thought they were supplying resources sufficiently large for an indefinite period. But uo one could foresee such strides as have been made since then. History furnishes no parallel tb the progress of the nineteenth century in our wonderful land. Perhaps our large ideas now may be still more at fault with the condition of things 60 years hence. k If our statesmen of to-day will work as conscientiously in the matter and give us tbe best according to their light as their predecessors of 1830 did In their time it is all we can ask, and we will leave the men of 1950 to shift for themselves, confident that they will allow full justice to tbe men of to-day, as we do those of 00 vears ago.
