Nicaragua Needs Good Roads

The many inquines made by Arnerioana regarding Nicaragua have drawn frora Thomas O'Hara, United States1 consul at San Juan del Norte, a report from which an extract is as follows: "Whole disrnctsof rich lands remain unoccupied because of their i ity. Mining and lumbering interests have not been propcrly developed for the same reasou. Without highwaya these lauds, forests and mines will remain practically worthless, and ' out the canal there will be but few railways and wagon roads in Nicaragua in i the near future. The establishment of a fair system of highways in the country would afford many opportunities, not, perhaps, for snddeu fortunes, but for safe and profitable investments. "
