it is time for us to turn our attention
to acquiring cheaper transportation
over our common highways. We are
in great commercial contest. Not
with one nation alone. but with all of
the progressive nations of the world.
The prize is the worlds market, and
the country, state or nation that shall
win will be the one that can reach the
market the cheapest. Many of the
states in this country and many of
the foreign countries that are our
warmest competitors are much more
active in highway Improvement than
we are in this state. France, India
and Russia, three Of our close oompe-
titors in the production of fruit and
wheat have and are building some of
the best roads in the world
Oregon is great state for the pro-
duction of potatoes, If we were to
have roads SO that our crops could be
moved during the rainy season Of the
year, the time that they are usually
the best price, our farmers could
become wealthy. From the in
crease in the price that they would
often receive by being able to market
them when the price was best, they
could soon build good roads.
Our rainy season frequently sets in
SO early that the roads are muddy be.
fore we can get our prunes to market
in the fall, causing us to haul very small
loads while our French competitors
haul over their good roads several times
AS much per load as we can with the
same horse power.
If we are going to develop the state
Of Oregon, why not begin to do the
most essential thing arst that will
cause such develoment; that is build
good public highways
Suppose every farmer throughout the
country you'd put in on an average
one months time every year in road
imroyement, would he not be amply
repaid for his services? dare say the
majority of you farmers would reap a
benefit from Il high road tax IL yon
we're to receive but small benef from
the bettered condition Of your roads,
for the reason you would get to work
out the taxes that would be assessed up
on the property In your towns and upon
tho property of nonresident property
owners. | don't believe, however,
that the farmers should defray all
the expense Of lroad construction it
is just as important for the business
men who live in town to have good
roads leading to it as it Is for the
farmer to have them. If il were not
for the farmer coming to town occa-
sionally most Of our towns would
soon cease to exist SO contend
that there should be mutual interest
betoween the farmers and the mer
who live In town, in making better
public roads; we should, therefore,
cooperate in support OF some genera
plan Of road management and con
struotion and 60 TO work construct
ing them as rapidly rs wo can II
the people Of the city aud tn,
country would unite in an effort tC

est distance the farmers can afford to
haul wheat over existing wagon roads
TO the railroad is about 30 miles. If
the wagon road can be so improved
that with the same number of horses
and with the same wagon two tons can
be hauled where one is the present
limit, it will also be found that the
extreme boundary of the profitable
wheat area would be 40 miles, or
double what 1t is now. That is,a far
mer under the improved conditions of
wagon roads 40 miles distant from the
market could produce wheat with as
much profit for himself as the farmer,
who today is but one.half that dis
tance from the buyers at the railroad
stations. "
"If an additional strip of only five
miles could be brought within reach
of the market by good roads, contigu-
GUS to the entire line Of the Oregon
Railroad and Navigation Company,
and only every other section could be
made productive, over three and one
half millions of acres would be added
to the productive area of the Pacific
Northwest, which on the generous
basis of 1850 acres to each family would
support nearly 29O. 90 families.
Yet five miles is not great dis
tance to extend the profitable produc-
tive belt if you go at the good road
proposition in the right way"
Have you, who live from 10 to 20
miles from the railroad, ever consid-
cred that in addition to great re-
duction in the wear and tear of horses
and wagons, as well as yourselves,
good roads would increase the value
Of land itself by, as it were picking
IL up bodily and placing 1t nearer the
town." The increase in the price of
hauling actually done is by no means
the cost only on account Of bad roads.
The loss Of perishable products from
want of access to market, the failure
to reach markets when prices are good
and the failure to raise products that
would be marketed if markets were
always accessible adds many
millions of dollars to the tax Of bad
roads.
We have in the past laid great stress
upon the Importance of building moro
railroads and improving our water
ways, bat we ha ve done very little to
improve our common highways. The
general government, feeling the need
of having cheaper modes of trans
portation gave to the railroad com,
panies of this country $40, 900, 600 OF
acres of public land as an inducement
for them TO bull railroads through
some Of the sparoely settled parts OF
this country so that it might be more
rapidly developed. 1t has also ex
pended about $500, 600, 600 in the i'm
pToyement of our common waterways
In one session of Congress in recent
years. it appropriated 600, 600, 600 ol
dollars for river and harfor improve
ments; and not very long ago it apprC
priated S32. 600, 600 for tha
purpose. When we consider that th,
cost Of transportation by water anC
rail is now about to the minimum
and that 1t costs more to transpor
our farm products from the farm t,
our shipping points by water or raj
than it costs to carry them from saiC
points to the markets Of the world

Hurrah for Newport News.

When we wrote yesterday OF the ex-
penses of the Democratic primaries and
called attention to Chairman Ellyson's
recommendation that committees in the
counties and cities undertake as far as
possible to relieve the State Committee
Of any part of the expense Of conducting
primaries In their respective sections,
we did not know that the Democratic
Committee OF Newport News had already
taken action. 1t was stated, however, in
the local columns of yesterdays Issue
by Mr.. Allen D. Jones. chairman Of the
Newport News committee, that his com
mittee had adopted resolution pledging
the party in that city to conduct the
primary without cost to the candidates.
This is worthy example, and. II all
cities and counties in the State will
follow It, there will be but little need
for money from the State Committee,
and there will be larger surplus to be
returned to the candidates after the pri-
mary shall have been held.
That is the simple solution of the
E pIODleIil. ~ IlldllelS INV lNht ttle CdHul-
dates have been assessed, AS Chairman
Ellyson has emphasized the assessment
In no way prevents any county or city
from assuming the cost Of It's own pri-
mary; In no way prevents volunteers
from rendering their services free.
1t is well enough to remember that
this year there will be no Ctate Conven-
ton to nominate candidates and no
local meetings to select delegates 10 the
State Convention. This will relieve the
party OF considerable expense and Is
another reason why the members of the
party In the various localities should
bear the expense OF holding the primary.
The Newport News Democracy has set
the pace, and we feel sure that In other
cities and sections Democrats will keep
step,
