last farewell being answered with bene-

Chimacum Road.

Contractor Williams has begun work
on the Chimacum road improvement.
The principal county thoroughfare will
be widened, graded and also bridged
where necessary from Irving Park race.
course to Chimacum valley, distance OF
nine miles. The road will be placed in
first class condition, after which it Will
afford one of the most delightful drives
leading out from this city. o..
The county commissioners certainly
deserve great credit for the broad, liberal
policy they are pursuing in making coun-
ty road improvement. Already the
money spent upon county roads has had
a most beneficial etfect-an influence
which has determined many to locate in
this county. This policy is certainly the
correct one-and every dollar expended
for such improvements will bring tenfold
returns.
There should be no cessation OF this
CORD work until an excellent system oi
roads will be established throughout ths
county.

that the latter state has made. To-day

while Washington mas 100000. Oregon
was admitted as a S ate iD 1859, and for
thirty years has had the as istapce ei
the national government in the devel-
cpment of her resources. For many
years she has possessed railroad facili-
ties that have brought her in immed diate
connection with all the great business
ceuters of the United States. Her ocean
steamers have been great source tn
aid her in her progress. Washington
on the other hand has had to. struggle
uader a territorial fern of government
By presentation Of her great resources
only has she ihducel recognition, from
the world. She has bad the advantages
of railroad facilities but few wears.
The navigation OF her waterways Is but
in it's infancy, SO that we cannot say
much rrEarding the same. Ali her
great prosperity is owing to the richness
uf her soil ana her immense forests.
