P. 00 fbrt A (Mtlnnrtt of 1o OIVc A I.Ik* Amount. There Is pftndlnfr Hi Mil Called the BrowUlovf hilt introduced by Hon. Walter P. Brownlow, of Tennessee appropriate $34,000,000 as national aid for tho building of wagon roads.

This sum is fo bo available at th rate of 18,000,000 a yrnr is to 1m di- virlod according to the population of tho different states, but no state is to receive less than $250,000. Kvery state national aid must appropriate aud spend a liko amount. The assottod growth of seatiuicnt in favor of the uioasnre has been chiefly duo to the institution and extension of the rural free mail delivery system, which has brought the disadvantages of poor roads home to tho farmers and other inuntry Applications for the extension of ttie rural delivery system aro being refused by the Post Oflioe authorities on account of the roads and the disappointed communities maud thoir improvement. Theso demands are so in excess of ability of thn looal boards to respond that for a yoar past Highway Commissions all over tho conn- try have been putting themselves on record in favor of national aid. It is claimed on behalf of tho bill that the plan of distribution is more equitable than tho distribution of some 132,600,000 a year under the liivers and 1 larbars Bill, whioh goes principally to tho seaboard states and to tho Mississippi delta.

In support of tho Brownlow Bill, as a general measure, attention is called to the fact that Franco has 28,003 miles of wngou road, which are built and maintained by tho nation, and Italy abont 5,000 miles, while many of the States of the Union spend hundreds of thousands of dollars annually iu tho aid of highway improvement.
