ROAD ACTION

IL Is more than probable that there
viii be important road legislation
enacted by the next Legislature. and
II is therefore incumbent on the peo-
pie OF the various counties so get to-
gether and determine along what
lines. both local and State. they de
sire this legislation. If they fail to
do this they shouldn't blame their
representatives for anything done or
remaining undone. because naturally
IN the absence of instructions from
home these men must act as their
Judgment dictates. We believe that
the Legislature at the coming ses-
sion will extend further aid to the
making of county roads. but this
aid. if in the shape of money, will in
all probability go only to those
counties in proportion as they do
their part and this is as it should he.
No county can expect the State to
do it all. but let each one show its
willingness to take mp its share of
the expense. We have urged before.
and we do so again. the necessity OF
holding road meetings i'm the conn
ties adjacent to Fredericksburg. As
Spotsylvania is seriously consider
ing the permanent improvement OF
the roads, we suggest that the super
visors call a road meeting for Octo-
her court, have a general discussion.
and later. ii necessary. take some
difinite step towards informing our
senator and delegate Of what the
county wants done.

Lutherans Agree to Cooperate.

The English Lutheran services at the
Dircksen hall on New Years day were
well attended. Rev. Herman BOIL of
the German church preached the New
Years sermon and Rev. o. G. Hellek-
son Of the Norwegian church preached
on: 'The Right Unity Between All
True Christians " After the services
a meeting was held to discuss co-opera-
ton or consolidation of the German
and Norwegian branches of the Luth
eran church. All present seemed
heartily in favor of cooperation. with
preaching mainly in the English Ian
guage. AS there seemed to be more
of the Germans than of the Norwegians
who could not readily understand the
English language it was thought best
to call minister from the German
church who could also preach in the
German tongue at times. A commit
tee consisting of ii. G. Tweedt, 1 Smith
Christ kruse and Henry Otte was cleo
ted to see how mnch could he obtained
in annual subscriptions toward the sup
port of such minister It is the inten-
ton that this minister shall live here

plans into effect We can hope to see a
flOurishing Lutheran congregation here

number Of Lutherans here now and

the franchise for a second trans

granted. Some months ago we
published an article in which we
set forth the idea that Kennewick
on account of its raiiro ads and still
more on account of the Columbia

transportation center and distrib
uting point for this region. A
large part OF the distance to that
ideal has now been traversed.
