The Hard Roads and Harsh Winter of 1891 Foretell Trade Woes
An 1891 reflection laments United States roads as the nation’s main barrier to commerce and mobility. It notes three-quarters of the land surface hindered by mud, merchants losing Christmas trade, and farmers unable to reach towns for basic needs. The piece calls for road-building, criticizes antiquated laws, and argues better highways would raise property values and enable growth.
