BE Held November 80.

The visit OF James W. Abbott. the
United States good roads commissioner
to Walla Walla is TO be made the occa-
sion OF convention OF eastern Wash
lngton people at that place on Novem-
ber 30.
Charles l.. Whitney, who is always
Interested IN any movement for good
roads, Ex-Governor Moore, John II.
Mcdonald, secretary OF the commercial
cluO AMI other business men met with
the county commissioners in the audi
tors Office at Walla Walla Hast Satur-
day TO arrange for a lecture from Com
missioner Abbott, but before the meet
ing was lar advanced it was turned TO a
rally fOr good roads convention.
Z. IL. Whitney was chosen chairman
and John ii. Mcdonald secretary.
Governor Moore and MIR. Whitney
spoke favoring invitations to the county
commissioners and Others of all eastern
washington to come to Walla Walla to
meet and hear Commissioner Abbott
and other good road experts to view the
specimen road that the government ex-
perts are building near the city, and to
discuss matters of interest 10 this move
ment.
1t was decided TO invite the county
commissioners of all eastern Washing.
ton counties as we'll as those OF UmatilIa
county, Ore, the commercial bodies of
those counties, the Agricultural college
at Pullman, and J. b. Meekle and III. l..
Kline, president and secretary lof the
state association, who are interested in
the movement and nave done much
good wook for this cause. Members of
the Legislature and press will be invited.
County Commissioner McCaw said
there were many amendments to the
good roads law that no doubt would be
discussed as it was desirable that the
road improvements be made in the early
summer so that they can settle and
become more firm by winter. The pres
ent Law does not provide for enough
gangs OF laborers to do the work when
it should be done.
A bill will be before congress to ap-
prOpriate several million dollars to build
national roads in the states and Wash
ington will, no doubt, come in for a
good share OF this fund.
Commissioner Abbott has been ac-
lively engaged during the last two years
in the mountain and Pacific states and
his lecture is not only beautifully illus
trated by stereoptican views but is brim
full OF timely information of what is
being done in all parts OF the country.
