They ate the ones who pay, and they pay under the guarantee that their money shall be used to propagate Ash and game. This law has worked admirably during the past doacn or more years and there b no valid reason why it should be changed. While this money b expended by the Stxte Fish and Game Commission, they have expended it for the good of the men who paid it, and they have expended it under the same safeguards that surround any other State moneys. The money doesn't even pass through the commission'* iunds. but goes direct from the County Clerks to the State Treasurer. It b in the latter's custody and not a cent of it ctn be spent until it has hem appropriated by the Legislature in the annual apiriations law. All buls are paid it. the usual way, that b. on her approved by the State | Comptroller.

At thb time, declares Senator Pierson, there are eighty interstate bus routes, employing four hundred cars, which travel je the roads of New Jerse* and pay no taxes.

Senator Pierson would reach theese road user* by a two cent per mile tax lor the maintenance of way. Such a naintenance of way x b not v strange thing. Connecticut ha* such a law. which ha* been upheld and there b no ream why such a law should not be enacted and put into force this State. New Jersey will mm start on new $1*0,000,0~! road p gram, and it b none too soon enact laves to make the heavy users of these road* for revenue pay in proportion for their upkeep, as well a* lor the roads already in service.
