American Roads Superior.

England, until recently, has boasted of its steam railroads with scarcely a dissenting voice. But Englishmen who have traveled In the United States tell a different story on their return. Although English railroads have the advantage of elevated or depressed tracks, so that they are not troubled with grade crossings, they do not make the speed or run punctually as do American roads. The United States can set an example to the world in the successful operation of railways. The American railroad gives the traveler more comfort, more speed, better connections, and in nearly every particular more value for his money, than he can get at the same rate on any railroad In Europe.—Syracuse Post.
