SAMPLE TURNPIKE.
A STRIP 1850 FEET IN LENGTH
AND IS FEET WIDE.

The First Piece OF Macadam Road Built West
Of the Rocky Mountains by Government
Cooperation. ct BeIIinsham-Has Taken Al
Carloads Of Rock Averaging Is Square
Yards to the Car.
The road just completed at Belling.
ham is 1850 feet in length, Is feet
wide, 8 inches deep at the center and
5 inches in depth on each side. 1t has
been built on the Boulevard around
the waterfront, the government repre-
sentatives at Bellingham, Messrs. Alb
bolt and Dodge, taking the initiative,
being assisted by the city of Belling-
Ram and by the county, through it's
board OF Commissioners.
The proposition offered by the
United States Government is that it
procure the machinery, furnish men
equipped with scientific knowledge
OF road building, and that the COM
munity benefited by the improvement
furnish the men and the material.
The aim on the part of the govern.
ment is to teach the several commune
ties where these sample highways are
constructed the value and method OF
modern, rightly built roads.
On the second day of September,
the work OF graduating, the first step
in road building was begun on the
local strip OF macadam. One week
later. on September 9, the first load OF
rock was dumped on the road founda-
ton and the actual work of macadam.
izing was begun.
Messrs. Abbott and Dodge have
Analysed the rock there, which was
used in constructing the road and Mr..
Dodge states that it is tough and dur.
able in quality.
1t has taken forty-one carloads of
rock, averaging sixteen square yards
to the car to make the road, some of
these we're gathered at the street rail-
way company's gravel pit near the
cemetery and the remainder was OBJ
tanned near Sumas where the county
hired seventeen men to dig out the
stone as needed.
The experts were able to crush and
spread four carloads of rock, 81 cubic
yards, making $50 feet of roadway,
each day, had they been kept sup
piled with stone, but delay in getting
the all-essential stone checked the
progress of the work and materially
increased the expense of building the
highway. A macadam road such as
is now built on the Boulevard, under
good management, conditions being
equal to the ones encountered there,
can be constructed for a sum equalling
from 81, 500 to $1,000 per mile.
The work of crushing rock includ-
ing the making of bins for the month
Of September amounted to $25l. 2G. The
cost of earthwork, hauling and spread
ing rock upon the road for September
cost $64l 06. Men and teams en-
ployed in getting out rock from the
city gravel pit for September was
$464.33. The expense Of wood and
coal for September was $50.
The road has cost approximately 81
per lineal foot and is considered by the
experts to be one of the best roads
they have ever built.

\ petition signed 10y several hun
dred names. embracing about every
business man and heavy taxpayer in
town has been prepared for prescnta-
ton to the County Commissioners
asking that the taxes be rebated on
Priests Point-such at least as are
controlled by the county-to enable
the city to convert 1t INTO a public
park and recreation grounds. The
tract embraces several hundred acres,
and is admirably situated to command
the attention Of excursion parties
all over the Sound, and viewed as
even a sordid proposition would be
a source OF revenue from the business
it would incidentally bring to the
community, but a far better result
would result in facilitating the means
of recreation to which the busy world
and home-bodies pay too little heed.
1t is hoped the petition, which has
been authorized by the Chamber OF
Commerce, receive the signatures of
all our people and that it be acted
upon favorably by the county board.
1t is said that Secretary Garrison
finds it difficult to secure workmen to
apply the wash to take the rust from
the capitol walls. 1t may be that,
from experience, they feel very much
like the lahorer who applied to rich
man for job. He was given an AK
and told to pound with hiatt upon
log he would find in the backyard.
Day after day the same task was as
signed him, with ready and ample pay
each night. At the end Of the week
the workman terminated the job.
"Wcll," says the employer, Haven't
| paid you good wages" Yes" was
the reply. "Wasn't it ample pay?"
was the next inquiry. "Ies," was the
reply, "Tve nothing to complain OF
on that score" "Why, then, do you
give up your job?" "Well," was the
reply, hang it! when l chop wood,
I want to see the chips fly" This
may be the innate objection of work
men on the many experiments for
extracting rust from stone. They
may want to see their work result in
some practical benefit, or as expressed
by the woodman, see the chips fly"

THE Republican speakers run up

the factions are known as Ankeny

censured by the former for allowing
Warmer Dryden of the penitentiary to

Mcbride was true Republican. That

Rates Of Fare Have Dropped.

All the railroads in the territory
from Buffalo and Pittsburg westward
to the Rocky mountains and North.
west as far as Texas have just agreed
to run coach excursions at very low
rates to st. Louis during tho remain
der of the Fair.
From all points within 200 miles of
st. Louis excursions will be run daily
at half rates. From places between
200 and 500 miles from st. Louis ex-
cursions will be run five days each
week at the rate OF a cent q mile.
This rate will also be made twice a
week from Colorado, Wyoming and
the Dakotas.
For no previous fair were such fav.
orable rates and arrangements made
by voluntary agreement of the rail.
roads. The Columbian Exposition
taught the railroads two lessons at
once-that very low rates caused n
big increase in the number of visitors
to the fair but big decrease in the
revenue from the regular passenger
traffic. In considering rates for the
st. Louis Fair the first question OF
the railroads was how to make rates
low enough to attract people to the
exposition without permitting others
TO take advantage of those rates.
All other efforts in the past have
failed to prevent persons intending to
travel but one way, from buying
round-trip excursion tickets and SELL
ing the return coupons to "scalpers"
the railroads evolved the idea OF max
ing all brokers enjoined by the courts
from buying or selling any tickets is
sued at reduced rates on account OF
the fair. The railroads promised the
business men of St. Louis they would
make satisfactory rates to the fair if
the iniunctions against the brokers
were secured. The injunctions were
issued and satisfactory rates we're
adopted by the railroads.
Facing a financial failure of the
fair because OF the small attendance,
its members appealed to the railroads
for further concessions in rates and
more favorable arrangements. BY
promptly granting the request the
railroads have shown that cheaper
rates for fairs, conventions and other
big events will be made when ticket
" scalping" is impossible than when
the railroads are forced to guard
against the decentralization of their
regular traffic ty brokers'.

Gent to deter such a manner Of giving
"aid and comfort" to possible enemies

has been found necessary to guard the

a nation of about equal mental and
