them to think they are on the road to
Dublin; but more annoying still is the
deep ruts made by the various springs

Besides being great annoyance to

many find it source of annoyance when
taking visitors to our city in that direc-

A little expenditure by the city on the

Anxiety About Grain.

INDEPENDENCE, Or, Feb. 18-The
acreage of fall-Rrown grain in this
vicinity is probably the largest for many
years, and there has been great deal of
anxiety as to the effect of the cold snap
on the growing grain. 1t now seems
that on the south eide OF the hills and in
by the heavy snow, it is now in fine
shape, but the same conditions do not
prevail on the north sides of these hills.
There the snow was blown off and the
grain was left without any covering to
protect it from the hard freeze, and was
in some cases badly damaged. Some
fields will probably have to be entirely
re-eown.

SHOULD BE LOOKED AFTER
A City Road Which is sadly In Need of
Improvements.

AS often as some newspaper remarks
that "Spring has come, gentle Annie"
just 80 often does it become necessary to
remind the people that 'the roads are in
a bad condition. and to endeavor to in
duce them to expend come time and
money in improving them.
While there is room for criticizing all
roads leading to the city, our attention
has been directed to one in particular
which is used perhaps as much as any.
and certainly is as much in need of inn
provement as any could possibly be.
We refer to what is termed the lower
Des Chutes road leading to Seufert's, the
Floyd place and others. This highway
for low way) has long been an eye-sore
to the many who are compelled to travel
thereon. OF late the residents of that
road district have put in a great deal Of
time improving that part beyond the
limits of the city, building sluice boxes.
and otherwise preventing the road being
washed out, until it is in fairly good
condition.
It now becomes the duty of the city
to do its part. The worst part of the
thoroughfare is between theWasco ware
house and the city limits. AS teams
