If thereis a law or system that was ever inaugurated by the pioneer set- tlers of any country, which I believe has done great work, it is the labor tax or the statute. labor law. That system was adopted. at the time when the people had no money; when it. was really the only system they could possibly adopt for the purposi- of building their roads ; but it was in those days when the statute labor system or the labor tax was proper- ly expended, and thesystem was pro- perly" operated ~and the proper enâ€" thusiasm was put in the work ; Tele- , country had to cut dmvn the trees. to grub the stump, to corduroy the swamps and _, to bridge the streams - by their own labor and their own toil, without the assisstance of a dollar of money, that the statute labor system was adopted, and in which it did its excellent work; but changed conditions demand changed requirements and changed treatment and for that reason at the present time, we do not believe that it is_in the interest of this country that We should adopt some system which would be less cumbersome and which would tend to finish the splendid work which Was so nobly comlllcnced by the pioneer settlers of this part ofhthis country. Statute labor or labor-could be properly utilized by people in doing this pioneer work- ; but now, with the road allowances clearâ€"these roads to’ some extent graded. and to some extent drained, requiring only that they should be properly formed and finished â€"â€" we must get more system that will do this at a less expense and in a less cumbersome wuy : and in order to do that, I believe that the first stop of your local organization should be to rid yourself of what is commonly known as the labor tax ; and ill or- der to do this it is very necessary to approach the subject in a very care- ful and in a Very common place way. These farmers and to a very large extent, the. agricultural organizations feel largely that it is an interference on the part. of the business and comâ€"V mercial men of the country to '~z.kc any interest in that which affects particularly the farmers themselves, and if you attempt to discuss adâ€" versely their present methods, you reap the antagonism and the oppo- siticnvofz these people, and for that reason "it will be. almost impossible, for you to ever carry out the good work of organizationin those distâ€" ricts, but let us give therold system credit for 7what it has dong and we would only be dealing fairly with it then, and-let us go into.tho‘far- mers’ meeting; let us go into the agâ€"- ricultural 'meetings, the dairy meet-1 ings,«the farmers’ institute meetings, angall such gatherings, talk to the. pépple along those lines, tell them- tlie. excellent. week .they have done ‘in the past; ‘poirltflout to them,’ how- ever, that better results could now be produced by changing those meth- ods and changing them possibly slowly by evolutionary measures, rather'than byrevolutionary measâ€" ures, and‘-in’ja_'veryrsh'ort time, it has b on my experience,‘ you - will find that this antagonism wwill be chp‘ng‘e‘d into'Sympathy. Now,» then, understand me in this, that I believe at the present timep as I have stated, that the statute labor system, asa system, is as good a system as was ever'designed and adopted by any, country for pioneer work, and I think that the ,2‘ -¢',‘-‘-‘ , 53: .;opponent of that system to-’ the filling up of some on of a few loads of gravel here and thire involves a considerable penditure, made up of small items, but in the aggregate is a very large amount. and for that reason I do think that the statute labor system should be set aside and a better system should lre designed to take its place, and this will be one of your great works. Now, sir, this is a simple question, as I say. the matter of rmr-lwitkmg. it does not require or involve nec- essarily scientific kn owlcdge or enâ€" gineering skill, but it does icequirc that we should haw our systems so 8'”? 1.ng so that the wink “'2” be done in every section of the dzstrict along well-defined lines. Now, see here ; simple as the problem :s what does it mean 2" They say to me -â€" many farmers sayto me : ‘The idea of you coming around here to tell us how to build roads. I know bet- ter how to fix a piece of road in front of my farm than you could possibly know, and what is the cc- casion or the necessity for any such an agitation as this ?" Now that. may be, but isn't it a funny thing, that particular farmer will tell you just how he would fix that road, and possibly his neighbor will tell you Jones don't know anything about roadmaking, and if he was going to fix it he would fix it an entirely different way ; and many of our pathmasters this years lay down plans for the-improvement of their roads and it appears almost ;as if next year the pathnlasters who are appointed find it almost absolut- .ely necessary in order that they lshould show their superior knowâ€" ledge of roadmakillg that they should go to work and undo largely tllc work that. Was done the year before. .Take in the average municipality where you have one hundred path- mastcrs, all working along their own iideas, and in that municipalin you ijust have about one hundred differ- ent methods of road limildilig. and this is the curse of road building in .tllis country . this is why money 5 and labor are wasted and lilisapplicd. iOne pathlllaster or road overseer contends that a road should be nar- row, and make it fifteen feet, the next man twenty, the next main thirty, the next man fifty : and I have had men say the trouble. was the roadllcds were. not graded enough, and he" would grade the road from fence to fence. And those different grades are to be seen or. the same road requring the same treatment under the same. conditions. ! I believe we should organize these forces : that the local or state or- ganizations should dircct the immiâ€" pal organizations Sl‘.()lll(l lily down a proper plan : that proper plan should beyfirst, that the council pro- pare a rough plan of the county, showing all the rough roads in that county ; then the council should specify the widths of these roads. If onethird of the roads are leading roads then they should be made we will say twenty-six feet in width. The next class of roads are simply laterals leading into these main roads. They don’t require to be made so wide in grade and they should be made possibly twenty feet. and the next class be made eightéen feet. If these widths are the opin- ion of this council and their expert, or the man in charge of the roads,- :or commissioner. then I say these ,widths should be laid, down upon that plan, should be embodied in ' that specification, and fromthis time .forward these widths should be ad- (bored to. We should get rid of specâ€" tulation on the part of difierent over- ..‘scers. Then, sir, I believe that mun: iicipality should employ one man to act as road commissioner for the ,municipality. He should be a man isucll as I have specified, who has "sonle knowledge of roadmaking. and ,‘it should be his business in the .spring of the year to go out and reâ€" lport upon the condition of all the roads, and make his report on what :ruads should be graded, what drain ;age shaulh be done, what culvert \SllOllld 1.0 rebuilt, what bridges ‘shodld be fixed and rebuilt, and [bring that report and lay it before ithe council, the executive body of the _municipality, That council should 'then look it over and approve of lthat report ‘ and then they‘ should 'send the commissioner out. that the work is carried out. tusec Men working on Fri: . 35 Montreal, will bring hope and Joy, . 0 if. points the way to reneWed pnces ‘ ruin. my Office, as aé d8" that health and certain release from aids." 1139 and ‘ land sufl'ered far more than my share 0 many beats that it is scatter- agony from the ailments that afflict 33 33 0 the g l 8'9» and my sex.
