Interesting: Facts and Figures About One of The Great Movements of The Century. FfF 3 \ -*i u 'It I*4j- 7. -V —jjon-g, _£.; W-iUiams-iead-the following^ paper on Good Eoads before Newark Grange on Saturday last; State road built of macadam, 14 feet wide, macadam to te 6 inches thick, with the necessary ditches, cul- verts, etc. Fifteen per cent, of this is a town charge, 35 per cent... is a county charge, 50 per cent, is a state charge. Fifty dollars per mile or fraction of a mile is paid by the. town each year for maintenance. The state- maintains the road, using • the •$50.00 of the town and supplying all over that \amount. The increase in value of adjacent farms as a rule more than caiicetr-any increase of taxation. The -state and county, ea^h pay half the cost in the first instance, and the 15 per cent. is. afterwards taxed hack on the rown.- The Board of Supervisors may re- quest tjiat the county's half, of the cost shall'be paid by..the state in the first instance, and the county shall then be charged annually with the proper amount to be paid to meet the one-half of the cost payable by ihe county and town. And the supervis- ors sball apportion, such amount (in the proportion above stated) and levy the same against the county and town annually,' and levy 1 the $50 per year for maintenance of each mile, state to advance the $50 per mile each year for maintenance. . The repairing, of the bridges on the highway of over five feet span shall also be paid by the ' t.own. In fown-3-ha.ving state roads paying, highway taxes in money, -connecting pieces of ro'ad, not- exceeding -in length one mile. may. also be con- structed in the same, manner. A state, road, under the Higbie- Armstrong law. built of macadam, 14 feet wide and 6 inches thick, with the necessary ditches and culverts, can be built for about $8,000 per mile. Ten miles will cost about $80,000 ~\ Of that sum $40,000-. will be' paia^fjy the state, being one-half of the total cost. Of the other half of that sum the '-county will pay 35 per cent., be- ing $28,000. And the town will pay 15 per cent., being $12,000, town, one-half of the. cost, bearing three and one-half per cent, interest, payable in-tiot more than Sty equal annual installments, the first of which shall be in one year from the date of the bonds, and- such bonds shall not be spld for less than par. The times when such bonds shall be payable shall be settled between the super- visors and the comptroller. So you can pay your taxes 'for-such road in any number 'of installments that <s agreed upon. In that way you can make your payments of tax str-small that you would not notice them. For the Board of Supervisors may request that the county's half of the cost of the road shall be paid in the first instance by the state,, and.the county shall be charged annually by the comptroller with the proper | amount to be paid into the Redemp- ' tion Fund to meet the one-half of the J total cost payable by the county and ' town.. j The roads which our supervisor hasi ', recommended to be built jjnder the state system in this town are as fed- I lows: ' , __ 1. East and west road to meet a j road from Lyons near Hooper's race course, then go past Allerton's bridge I to west town line. | 2-T.TO Whiting's' Corners—start foutside of the village—then go west i through Hydesville to town line, j 3. From Whiting's tQ_Fairyi!re by [the. Sodus roadj. thence to the town hue oi Sodu\. ' - . ! 4. Rqgd from Hydesville to Min- steed or Hogeboom's Corners. \ S. Road soulh from Main street in Newark, past Price's farm to county line. 6. Road from East Newark to Marbletown, from there souths by GrffordVto county line. • 7. Road from end of West avenue CNewark) to county line, by way of Pardee Smith's farm. . 8. Road from Vienna street, Eas,. Newark, south to county line., MONEY\ SYSTEM.- The Town of. Arcadia assessed in fhe year 1905, 2,865 days of labor for the repair of the ^highways, wfiich, at $1.50 a day for the labor, would J amount td\$4 The numbet of I miles of ro'ad in the town is 127 and ! the cost of repairing each mile of road ' was $33.84—two-thirds as much as the 1 town would have to pay for-the re- pair of each mile of st,ate road, the .difference in expense of repairing be- ing~only $14.Ib per.mile. So that the\ j co»t to the town of repairing each mile ot state road, when it is built, is only $14.16 more than the town HOW I pays each for repairing the same road, 1 as a common dirt road.

And thfs 50 per cent, shall be made | immediately available (that is, col- ( lected by tax) before the highway can be placed upon the list of high- - ways' to be constructed. . j Or a request may be made that the | whale cost of- the, construction of the j 'highway shall be paid-in the first in- stance by the state,* and if that is- .done, the county shall be charged an-! nually by the comptroller with the' proper amount to be paid into the Redemption Fund to me^t the one- J half of the total cost payable by the county and town. And thereafter the supervisors ap portion the amount and provide the assessment, levy and collect annually, said apportioned amounts respectively as a town and county Charge and di- rect the payment of the •sa'rrie tO' the .comptroller by the county treasurer, • • Th€- town is to pay ~$50 per mile each year for the - maintenance and • repair of the road. The state main-j tains and repairs the road» using the, $50 of the town, and the state will , sitpply and pay any sum necessary to •repair and maintain the road, over the amount paid by the town. By the provisions of a law passed llist winter, the state will, if desired, issue; state bonds for the one-half, ,;ofi»the cost of such rqa'dj bearing \tlife'e andi one-half pet cent, interest for the amount of the county and Terr—a—tmrn—adopts me system, the state pays to that town every year a portion of the money for repairs on it. Where the a'ssessed valuation of its property is less' than one million of dollars, it pays one- half. Thus, if the town pays out $4,000 for repairs on its roads in a year the state will pay back to the town $2,000 of it. WhereThe \assessed valuation xrf a town- is more than a million of dol- lars, the state pays for repairs of highways each year one-tenth of one per cent, of its assessed valuation.- The assessed valuation of Our town (outside of villages) is a million and a half dollars, and if our town should, go under the money system and should pay fo\r the repairs of its roads $4,000 in a year, the state would pay back to the town $1,500 of that sum each year. . Q-f—course^ in order. to • have good roads the.town will have to adopt the money system for repairs of the com- mon roads. But the farmer should remember that in building and in re- pairing good roads his own teams would undoubtedly be employed, so far as he could spare them from farm work, and at a good price in cash per day. and in that way he could, if de- sired, receive back as much cash as his taxes for the roads would amount to. And the state would - pay back to the town the proportion I have stated of the amount annually ex- pended by it for repairs of the roads in the Town, which would go to lessen -the taxes for repairs to the farmer—or the amount paid by the state for such repairs would go to make the roads in still better condition. Where' the money system is adopt- ed for the repair of the highways the town raises at least one-half the valu- ation of the commutation rates of the highway'labor, which would be raised under the labor system, and also $1 on each person liahle to a poll tax, outside of villages. The amount of such tax is to be'-determined by the Town Board and Commissioner^ of Highways. The state pays to the county a surrt-of money equal to one- half i of the amount raised by tire- town. „ Villages shall be included in as- sessments for damages and charges for laying out or altering any road, repairing . or construction of any bridge, for the salary of the Highway Commissioner, for\ the purchase of machinery and tools and implements to be used for'«such purposes, for the removal or preventing obstructions by snow, for shade trees, for watering troughs. • , Upon the written request of twenty- five taxpayers, filed with the town clerk, the electors of the town may vote, at any special or regular town meeting to change the system of tax* ation for working, the highways. The state has made the most ad- vanced step in securing good roads in New York and the question of better roads is now fast gaining favor in all rural districts. ~ The state aid highway law provides that the state engineer may use his discretion in deciding upon the method of improvement of any Tugh- way, using a Telford, xnacadairi or gravel roadway or other .suitaTjte scori- tion for building those roads? : n~ *y A NATIONAL GRANGE PAPER.

Appropriations have been thus-mad-e for-'the--counties -for- 1,374 miles \5f—road located\ in fo_rtyXcounties, and of these ' there have been put under contract and are now in progress of construction in eighteen counties- or- are atitttaTIy com- pleted and in use -in twenty-eight counties 704 miles, leaving 907 miles of road construction of which the state has not provided its half of the cost. ,. Since the enactment of the law of 1898 petitions have been received from fifty counties for the improve- mertt-of-5-,466—mileiS of road. Four towns in our county, Huron, Palmyra, Sodus and Williamson, have adopted th,e money system. In Palmyra this year the highway tax, including poll tax was $2,916.14. The state paid the town one-half that amount in addition, being $1,458.07. So that town had $4,404.21 to lay out on its roads. Sodus in 1906 raised for highway tax $4,886.52. It received from the state $2,443.26, giving that town for highway repairs $7,329.78. In Arcadia in 1906 the number of days' labor assessed was 3,509. The value of that labor at $1.50 per day was $5,263.50. I am told by a friend, of mine, a prominent farmer of Monroe county, where 192 miles of state roads' have been- built, or the moneys appropri- ated therefor, that the state roads built in that county have raised the price of farms situated next the roads from $10 to '$25 per acre. I see by the Xewark Gazette this week that the- state engineer has re- ported to our Board of Supervisors the plans and specifications for the following state roads in this county, Advance rf c|v|| which will be taken up-at the session slxtjr years ag , 0 there were M of the Board this month: < children at sehool In India.

The road from the east line of Mon roe county to the west line of tl e Town of .Williamson, a- distance of 6.41 mi|es, estimated cost $60,500, of which the state will pay $30,250 Wayne county $21,175 and the town $9,075. The road from the east line of Mon roe county to West Walworth, ads tance of 1.99' miles, estimated cost $16,800, of which the state will pay $8,400, Wayne county $5,880' and the.

WORK WEAKENS THE KIDNEYS. - Doau'8 Kidney Pills Have Done Great Service for people who work In Newark. Most Newark people work every day in some strained, nhatural position ^-bending constantly aver a desk—rid- -rng on jolting wagons or cars—doing laborious housework; lifting, reaching or pulling, or trying the back in a hundred and one other ways. ' All these trains tend to weaE, weaken and injure the kidneys until they fall be- hind in their work of filtering the poisons from the blood. Doah's Kid- ney Pills cure sick kidneys, put . new strength in bad backs, Newark cures prove it. W. 0. Piero, formerly stationary engineer at the Custodian Asylum, says: \I first learned the value of Doan's Kidney Pills some seven yeas ago when wokirig as engineer on the West Shore E.R. I was then suffering from a case of kidney complaint brought on by an injury I suffered when a youug man. A brother en- gineer who had been similarly afflicted and had been cured by Doan's Kidney Pills told me about the remedy, and I began using them. In a couple of days the backache abated and in a short time passed away entirely. Ift. my present employment when we are often short of a j,firemaii I have been compelled to keep .up the fires, and the unusual strain on my hack from shoveling coal brought on backache a short time ago. ' I got a box of Doan's Kidney Pills at- Hanks' drug store, and by the time I had finished its eontents J was as completely and effectally relieved as before. The pills fcQjie_ ip the kidneys and rid the secretions of thedeposits which had- been visible, and also banished an in- flammation which made itself apparent by a sensation of scalding passages.''

Cooper is a man about thirty years of age' and lias acquired a fortune within the past two years' by the sale of 'some preparations of which he is the -owner. Reports from eastern cites that pre- ceeded the young man here were of mqst startling nature. Many of the leading dailies going so far as t o state that he~Bad nightly cured in 'public places deafness of years' standing with one of his preparations. The physicians df the East iojftradcted this^statement claifcsing the thing to be impqssble,- bu¥ {lie factsi seemed to bear, out this statement that Oooper actually did so. In consequence people flocked to him by thousands and liisjpieparations-sold like wildfire, _..._'_ Many of these stories were rgarded as fictitious in Cincinnati and until Cooper actually reached this city little attention was paid to them. Hardly had the young rnaji arrived, however. g ma» 1 and affeotions of the kidneys* and liver, in about two_ weeks time. This statement seems to have been borne out by the remarkable 'results-- obtained through the use of his _ prep- araton, and now all Cincinnati is ap- parently mad over the young man. His headquarte rsresemhle a veritable stampede. Thousands of people are • Visiting him each day, and the drug- gists are selling his medicines in enor- mous quantites. . , \What seems to make Cooper still more popular Is the fact that heprae-- tices extensive charitable work, and has already dispensed-- a^small fortune^ among the poor of the oity. — - How long the tremendous interest in Oooper will last IB hard to esti- mate. At present these seems to be no sign of a let-up. -Reputable physoians cla,iin it to be a fad that will die out as soon as Cooper leaves.
