there is still quite an amount of

Mr.. J. L. G. McCaffrey,


: Ed. Mining News, Elk City.
My dear McCaffrey: Having,
as you are aware, had an exper-
ience of the roads in Idaho in a
late trip from Sites, and having
had other similar experiences in
different parts of the state, l am
impressed to indite this letter. u
The necessity for good roads in
many parts of the state where
railroad facilities are to be had is
not, perhaps, matter of vital
Importance; but where a district
having great interests and re-
quiring extended anI very con-
siderable road traffic, is remote
from a railroad center Qike Elk
City,; the needs for the best pos
sible country roads are too appar-
ent to require extended comment.
The road from Sites to Elk
City is simply horrible, and in
many places dangerous; and that
road is a sample of many others.
1t is the poorest economy to keep
such a road in existence. The
enormous wear and tear upon We
hicles of all kinds and horse flesh;
the numerous impediments to
travelling, save for a short time
in the summer; all coupled with
the fact that your city is the CEN
tor of great and growing inter-
ests and that the road traffic is
very considerable, and freight
and passenger hauling over it
hazardous and extremely uncer-
tain, each and all present the rea-
sons why you should have the
best possible road obtainable lead
ing to both the railroad center
and to the camps adjacent to and
dependent upon Elk city.
While the above remarks are in
a measure applicable to other
places in your state, this commu-
nication refers to your locality
only, for the purpose of raising a
general discussion.
1t is undoubtedly true that your
bounty would not feel able to
construct and maintain a perfect
roadway between the points indi-
Gated; and indeed there is no
particular reason why it should
be called on to do so; for the ben
efits resultant from the further
enee of the vast enterprises IN
your region are not entirely local
such benefits go largely to the
state at large. This is necessar-
lily so and the statement needs no
argument to sustain it; and the
state should necessarily be the
sponsor for all the country road
thoroughfare throughout the
state; discourse with certain con-
ditions or exceptions, in which
the counties should take charge,
in whole or in part. Your cit
izens should urge, with all the
vehemence in their power, that
the subject be taken up and q
remedy provided by the legisla-
ture.
If the present route from Sites
or any other railroad center to
Elk City is not the best, local
conditions being considered, the
legislature should provide, for q
Survey and laying out of some
other route. The state, as such,

GOOD ROADS MEETING
To Be Held at Lewiston During Week
of Inter- State FoiF.

Secretary Osmer of the fair as
sociation is planning for rousing
good roads meeting to be held in
the exposition some forenoon
during fair week, and is now Sc
curing prominent workers in the
good roads movement to address
the meeting. The details of the
meeting have not yet been ar
ranged but it has been definately
decided to hold such a meeting
and the best authorities on good
roads will be brought here to dis
cuss the matter with the people.
Mr.. E. H. Libby of Charleston has
taken an active interest in the
good roads movement and has
offered to assist in arousing an
interest in Asotin county. The
object of the meeting is to create
sufficient interest in the Lewiston
and Clearwater country so that a
good roads association. may be
formed and a defnate, united
action taken to improve the road
conditions. 1t is matter that
will appeal very strongly to every
farmer and person who travels
the country roads during the
winter season, and Mr.. Osmer has
taken the matter up in connec-
tion with the fair, believing that
no more opportune time could be
selected than when the represen-
tative people from all parts of the
country would be present to take
part in the meeting.
A feature of the fair will be
choise music furnished by the
Lewiston military band. The
concerts will commence at 10
O'Clock in the morning on Main
street and will be resumed again
at 1 p. m. on Main street. The
band will then go to the grounds
and give a concert during the
afternoon, and returning will
give a two hour concert on Main
street during the evening. Direc-
tor Pollard states that the band
has never before been in as good
condition and that never before
has such a choice lot of music
been prepared for concert work.

SOME GOOD SUGGESTIONS
Idaho County and State Roads as Seen By an
Outsider
He Suggests Several Practical Schemes for the

Appealed to for State Aid.

should make ample appropriation,
not only for that purpose, but for
the purpose of erecting and main
tanning the road A state COM
missioner of roads, in the depart
ment of your state engineer,
should be provided for, and he
should be clothed with ample
power. The legislature should
also provide for county road COM
missioners, under the auspices of
your county surveyor and county
commissioners. The latter spould
cooperate WITH and IN a way, be
subservient to, the former. The
legislature could call on your state
engineer or any other authority
for recommendation as to the
style or manner of building and
maintaining these roads. Indeed,
it would be but small stretch of
power for your state engineer,
through the governor, to presenc
the subject, with his recommen-
dations, to the legislature, in ad-
vance. A bill or bills should be
prepared and printed and pre-
sented to the legislature at the
opening of the session, in order
that they may have ample time
for consideration. Either of the
bills might be passed. The writer
will formulats such bills if desir-
ed to do so, for there is no subject
which has appealed to me more
for the last twenty years and
better, than the subject OF good
roads in general; and my early
private talks are the source from
whence all the discussion concern
ing good roads has since come.
If your legislature felt too poor
to take upon itself so great bur-
don, it could provide for local toll
road companies, to be incorporat-
ed especially, and the lending to
such companies of state aid, in
the way of bonds, for the purpose
of building such roads. The state
could not expect any considerable
return from those bonds; but on
the contrary it might. for time,
| be required to continue its aid for
maintenance. Such a company
could charge ample tolls, and the
travelling public could better af-
ford to pay them than to endure
existing conditions, for the wear
and tear would be much greater
than the cost of a liberal tolk
The tolls received could go hack
into repair and maintenance. For
, the present, while the interme-
, diate country is unsettled, the
tolls would not be sufficient to do
much, but the very fact of a per-
: feet road would in itself cause
= the country to settle thickly, and
in few years such a road would
not only be self-supporting, but
: could return to the state the in
: terest and provide a sinking fund
for the discharge, in part, of the
4 state debt created for the purpose
of establishing and maintaining
the road.
