Borrowing, or trying, to borrow 10

PliNN A. STATE GRANGE REPORT
Legislative Committee Wants Good
Roads, Increased School Ap
propriation, fie, &.
From the report of tho legislative
committoo of tho Pennsylvania StiUo
iirango or, its annual session at Erie
l'a Dee. 13-10. J901. wo clin tho fol
lowing concerning good roads, school
appropriation, trolley legislation and
freight discrimination :
"All tho people have equal rights to
the public roads nnd wo cap not under
stand why ,tho farmers should alono
liavo been compelled to build and main
tain them. Good roads are nlso of ennui
Importance to all Interests, therefore
no class of property should refuse to
assist in paying Tor them. When iti
support of this position your legislntivo
oonmiitteo asked the legislature to tnx
persona! and corporate proporty. in
cluding manufacturing corporat.onM,
the small sum of one mill for road
purposes, tho legislature failed to pass
it. Such a tax would yield at least two
ami ono-nait millions or dollars annually.
Under our present, system of taxation
wo still contend that this is the right
way to niiso morey from theso interests
for road purposes, . It must bo kept
in mind that good roads cost money
and lots of it."
Wo helievo that tho money so raised
or money appropriated should be divid
ed among the different, townships tie
cording to t heir respective road mileage
for permanent road improvements. All
our past, riMid legislation has added
additional taxation. The road law of
lOO.'S Is a failure in nearly all the
counties of tho state. Several of tho
most wealthy sections seem to be tho
only exemptions, if this law is to bo of
any use it must bavo somo radical
amendments. There are possibly twolvo
thou--n:d miles of main traveled roads.
"There is no just reason why poor
townships should he taxed to improve
and repair these main roads when they
are used for inter-county and state
com nieree."
While the net of 1003 makes an appro
priation of live hundred thousand
dollars annually for 1003 and 1004 it
Increases local taxation on real estnto
and the loss of local control. It cannot,
ho claimed that tho 'appropriation of
$."1)11,000 annually represents money
collected from corporations for the
reason that the state collects taxesfrom
the counties whlcli by right belongs to
the counties and should never bo paid
into the stato treasury. v
We are opposed to tho repeal of the
law known as tho Bridge Act of 1805
whereby the state rebuilds bridges
over public streams which have been
swept, away by Hoods. This law is very
henelieinl, especially to poorer counties
of the state. Wo favor national aid for
public re-id Improvement provided It is
not, coupled with additional taxation
on the farms. Wo believo that money
so spent m or more use to the people of
this i.ation than to waste it on far i tf
possession or in building a big navy.
We are in favor of peace and believo
that disputes between nations should be
settled by arbitration.
We favor an increased public school
appropriation, at, least tho $1 1 .000.0' iO
should be kept for tho public schools
wnn no iioiiiictlons thererrom except
for township high schools. The amount
appropriated at tho last session of the
legislature to these schools was $100.00(1.
Wo are in favor of Increasing this w
(200.000 If that amount is necessary to
carry out tho provisions of tho act
creating township high schools.
we demand that trolley roads shall
have tho right to carry freight. This
privilege is grunted to them in all
states except Pennsylvania and New
Jorsey.
o demand that our eeislaturo ennet.
a law prohibiting freight discrimina
tions whether done directly or by in
direct means. Excessive freight rates
and discrimination in rates has robbed
the Pennsylvania farmer of millions of
dollars. Wo favor the granting of in
creased powers to tho intor-state com
merce commission.
