The legitimate function of a high, way is, first the accomodation of private owners.of vehicles. They are not intended, as permanent road beds for transportation business, and can never bp depended upon to fill that function. We have not yet developed a road which will, stand the everlasting pounding of ’tliis traffic for which highways were never intended. Roads that were built honestly for 95 per cent of the traffic have been hammered to pices by 5 per cent of the traffic. The early destruction of many highways has called for rebuilding on a far more expensive scale, and for all new highways to he designed for the heaviest traffic, which is only 5 per cent. Are we to continue this expensive construction to provide a practically free right of way road bed and maintain the same for a traffic which pays nothing for its use except n simple license, the same as any pleasure vehicle? It is generally conceded that a highway capable of standing the le gitimate 95 per cent can be built for $30,000 per mile (50,000 per mile, an extra $20,000 per mile for 5 per cent of the travel. Are we go ing to stand f6r this—to make and maintain such roads for traffic nev er contemplated, which cannot take the place of raiilroads, and only serves to bankrupt them? Electric and steam railroads are absolutely the only safe, sane and permanent means of commercial traffic; and no country can prosper without them. Their rights of way must be bought, tunnels and cuts ■made, bridges' and culverts built, tracks laid, engines and cars built, and all kinds of buildings erected at enormous cost to operate this essen tial means of transportation. The same railroads must pay their share of cost and maintenance of the high, way which are giving practical'y free rights to their competitors. Can we do this without railroads? Ts not, we should see that they have the right to a fair return on their in vestments. The farmers have suffered be cause the public authorities, in em ploying people, set a day rate with short hours, that would bankrupt every farmer in the whole state if he ha dto meet it and he is more or less in competition with it. When a man in the hay field or milking cows receives $3 a day working 10 hours ands bids out that right along the road a fellow' is working at $1 or <a day, 8 hours, the farm employes becomes dissatisfied and trouble arises. Tattos on farms are running ex ccssiv ly high. If we do not take care of *his industry, which furnish es 80 ptr cent of all th: production, we uu not long boast of being the gicat United States. ’.Vhy not regulate n;<C .r common carriers and require them to ply ib'ir equitable proportion, of the highway costs?

The slogans of “buy at home’’; “trade at home” have been used so much until they have become shop worn, but there is much importance in the practice. No community can hope to grow and prosper unless our people trade with the local mer chants and patronize those indus tries which are helping to support the community in every way. A merchant pays taxes; he subscribes to every fund for civic, charitable and religious movements inaugurat ed by our people. He is called upon day in and day out for contributions. If he refuses he is called a tight wad and an “old timer” and ac cused of not being up to date and progressive. All the burdens of the community rest upon the commercial interests and from them is expected the support of all movements. The Schley County News has the following comment on why one should “buy at home” which strikes to the point and should cause our people to realize the importance of trading with local merchants. Because my interests are here. Because the community that is good enough for me to live in is good enough for me to buy in. Because I believe in transacting business with my friends. Because 1 want to see the goods. Because I want to get what I pay for. Because every dollar I spend at home stays at home and helps work for the welfare of the city. Because the man I buy from stands back of the goods. Because the man I buy from pays his part of the city and county tax es. Because the man I buy from helps support my school, my church, myi lodges and my home. Here is where I live and where 1 1 buy. PLEASANT HILL. Lawrenceville, R. 4, June 20.
