When the State is relieved of tho expenditures now made for the Sproul rends it will be in a po sition to extend more liberal aid to the townships in the maintenance of the local roads. The Junes law now in force provides that the State shall pay to townships an amount equal to 50 per cent of their levy fur road taxes up to $25 per mile, but the appropriation by the last Legislature as cut down by the Governor eituilH but $1.75 per mile and mttkes of tills law a farce. With the loan in force the Good Roods ad vocates of tho State will at once turn tlielr attention to securing from each Legislature the full 50 per cent nr $25 per mile for townships. This will not only have the effect of nt onre reduc ing road taxes in every township In tho State, but it will Insure to each township Rood local roads leading to the main State roads nnd In fact everywhere throughout the township. Ileal estate pays no Stato tux, so no cost of the loan and no part of the cost of these appropriations to town ships will fall on the real estate owner; but they will actually reduce his road taxes, Increase tlio value of Ills bind, make It easier to secure anil keep competent help and make life easier and happier for his wife, hi. cliili'.'in and himself. ADMINISTRATION OF HIGHWAY FUND IN PEOPLE'S HANDS The State Grang-o officials who op pee the state loan for Rood roads fer tho present administration fear that a new administration will not properly linntllp. the Highway Depart ment. For years the Grange has been a strong advocate for the initiative, referendum und recall as the great euro for all political evils. In as much us the people next year elect a new Governor who appoints a new Highway Department, also a new I rouse of Itepresentatives and half tlio Senate, tho State Grange oHlcluls must explain why they think the voters of the Stato nro incompetent to do tills. If they are not competent now when does tlio Grango think they will bo competent to exercise the Initiative, referendum and recall? CREASY ADVOCATED STATE ROADS PLAN IN 1903 William T. Creasy In 190.1, In the House of Representatives, favored a system of roads connecting every county sent in the State and said it could be Pmilt for fifty million dol lars. Today lie opposes the loan and Hie very roads he asked for ten years ago. Why? Somebody wants to be GuviTH'ir and Is funning the farmer to d ) it. Modern Science. Tlio late Samuel Wllks, Queen Vic toria's physician, was opposed to di etary fads.
