Good roads bring us more rural routes?will in time bring us better ones and more efficient ones. They make better homes, happier firesides, more patriotic people. They distribute the products of the mine, the forest and the factory. They are the avenues of progress and the highest and best proof of the intelligence we enjoy. Highways I tell you, sir, are not I the property of one class of men. but $tre the property and interest of ev Ary one, whether he be biuck OV s%hite, educated or low. savage or civilized. They are 1 tell you, the property of us all, and we should all iiid in their upbuilding. The beneflcient effects of good roads How to the city and the hamlet as well as to the farmer. They walk band in hand in community of interest, and surely is it a picture beautiful to look upon and sound of the core. Good roads are indispensable to our growth and progress and we must not falter or wait to provide for them. Those l'ies of Hoy head. How delicious were the pies of boy hood.
