CASH MUST BE PAID
Under the Kcw Eoad Improvement
Bill by the Taxpayer.
SO WORKING OUT EOAD TAXES.
The Eill Eeadj for the Final Action of the
Commission.
THE COUKTEX MEMBEES AEE FEARED.
IFEOU A STAIT COBEESPOSDENT.3
Habbisbubg, Jan. 4. From members
of the State Road Commission I learn that
some important changes have been made br
the sub-committee in the Road Improve
ment bill, which the j are about submit
ting to the Commission for final action.
The bill, ai now definitely decided npon by
the sub-committee, wholly abolishes the
system of "workmg out road taxes." It
proviaes that every farm owner must pay
his road taxes in cash. It the farmer feels
that that is too great a financial drain on
him, or if he still has idle time on his hands
which he believes he conld jnst as veil put
in on the roads, then a course is left open to
him by this proposed new Jaw which might
be regarded as the equivalent of working
out his taxes.
He may give notice to the County Road
Engineer that he wishes to work on the
roads. The engineer at the proper time
notifies him where to report for work, and
then he works upon the roads just as any
other person who is employed as a laborer
lor that work. He will be paid wages for
each day's work, entirely independent of
the amount of property he owns, or the
amount of his assessment. But his own
road tax he must pay in cash, and he is
simply eiven this opportunity to earp the
money back. In other words, the -authorities
iu employing labor to repair roacls must
give the farmers of the township preference.
County Engineers Provided For.'
The proposed law also provides for the ap
pointment of a civil engineer in each county
to have general charge of the work on roads.
He shall be paid a salary, and he can only
secure the place after passing a thorough
examination as to his fitness. These exami
nations shall be conducted by a board, which
may possibly be formed of members of the
State administration at Harrisburg.
In distributing State aid the township is
made the unit, and the money appropriated
by the State for road building will be dis
tributed like the school funds are. If a
township raises by local taxation, say $3,000
lor roads, then the State will give to that
township in proportion. For a Jong time
the sub-committee considered the idea of
building a mile of permanent roadway for
every mile built by the township, but at
last this has been rejected as falling short of
the mark. A township might never build a
mile of permanent road, and thus the good
work would never be started, though the
State was willing to aid. By the plan now
proposed the State aid will be at once turned
to practical use, because taxes will, of
course, be assessed and collected every year
in townships. The members think the pro
rata plan makes it a fair distribution.
what money the State gives a township
must, however, be expended on building a
permanent road, not in isolated sections, but
continuously adding to it each year.
Jfot Sure of Adoption.
"While the above is nn outline of the bill
(roughly drafted by the sub-committee, it is
'not sure at all that the general commission
,' will adopt it when it is reported to it. The
sub-committee is a minority of the whole
commission, and the majority has full
privilege to amend the work of the minority
in this case. The sub-committee will hardly
call the commission together to receivt the
report until the middle of the month, be
cause they are awaiting the outcome of a
popular road improvement movement in
Philadelphia. In that city there is a re
markable sentiment for a permanent im
provement of rural highways all through
the State. A committee has'been appointed
by the association, which has its head
quarters there, to draw up a bill for pre
sentation to the State Legislature this
winter.
This committee is composed of the ablest
men in Pennsylvania in that particular line.
They are Hon. Wayne McVeigh, ex-Attorney
General; A. J. Cassatt, the railroad
ruacnate; John C. Bullitt, the Quaker City
millionaire: Prof. Lewis Hanpt. the eminent
economist of the TJniversitv of Pennsylvania:
A- TJ Tt . . s -: -
W.
". xkuauu, au expert m civil engineer-
ing matters. When the State Road Com
mission finally sends its bill throngh the
Governor to the Legislature, its interests
will be championed in the Senate by Senator
Amos Jlylin, of Lancaster county, while
Hon. J. H. Griffith, of JIcKean county, and
Dr. V. H. McCullough, of Allegheny
county, will have charge ol it in the House
of Representatives.
Afraid of the Country Members.
The Commission realizes that the pro
verbial economy of the country members in
the Legislature will be one of the principal
obstacles their bill will encounter. Thev
are. therefore, disposed to trust to the press
ot the State to educate the people to the con
viction that although expensive at first,
good roads in the end cut down taxation.
As soon as the bill is approved by the whole
Commission, no matter what form it finally
takes, printed copies or it will be mailed bv
the Secretary to every daily and weekly
newspaper in Pennsylvania, with the re
quest that it be reprinted by them in full.
It is believed that there is a powerful
undercurrent throughout the State for some
better system of improving the pnblic high
ways, and it is the desire to turn this wide
spread sentiment to some account by remov
ing false impressions. The County Road
Exploring Expedition of The Dispatch
last spring brought out in strong light the
hearty favor with which the rural press
everywhere advocate road reform. The time
for action has now arrived, and in no legis
lation to be introduced at Harrisburg this
winter will the power of a united press be
so potent as iu this.; L.E. Stofiel.

Poisoned
by
Scrofula
Is the saa story of many lives made miserable
throngh no fault of their own. Scrofula is
mora especially than any other a hereditary
disease, and for this simple reason: Arising
from imuure and insufficient blood, the disease
locates Itfelf iu the lymphatics, which are com
posed or white tissue; there is a period of foetal
life In u tho whole body consists of white tis
sue, and therefore the unborn child Is espe
cially Miscepuble to this dreadful disease. But
there is a remedy for scrofula, whether hered
itary or acquired. It is Hood's Sarsaparilla,
w liicb by its powerful effect upon the blood, ex
pels every tiace of the disease and gives to the
vital flnid the quality and color of health. If
j ou decide to take Hood's Sarsaparilla do not
