Our county court should assist
two road projects within the county
this year if there is a possible way.
The road nearly completed from
Alsea via Beaver creek would ac-
ommoiate a large number of peo-
pie who are not able to built the
road alone, and yet, who are no
insignificant potion Of The bone and
sinew of the county. A number of
good settlers have left the Beaver
creek country because there was no
outlet and no good prospect of one.
This will never do. We canuot
afford TO lose one good settler who
IS trying to build a home in our
new county. One hundred dollars
saved in such manner is false
economy-real extravaganza. The
same arguments may be made in
favor OF the trail to the mouth of
