INQUIRIES ABOUT OUR ROADS
GOVERNMENT WANTS TO KNOW
THEIR CONDITION.
Sends Postmaster Printed Questions
to Answer Relative to TerrelfS
Rural Routes.

That the government, through the
postoffice department, is manifesting
unusual interest in the condition of
the roads in this section is shown
by the number of inquiries Post
master Lewis is called upon to an
swer.
These queries are printed on reg
ular blank form, which is to be
filled out and returned to the de-
partment at Washington. Whether
the information is to be used merely
as data or for the Inauguration of
good roads crusade is not known.
Some of the questions the post
master will answer are as follows:
"Route number, length of public
roads, miles of private roads, miles
of macadam roads, gravel roads,
earth roads, sandy roads.
Are road building materials avail
able? Are roads properly drained
and graded? Number of unbridged
streams. Indicate from official de-
scription of route the roads urgently
needing repairs. What repairs are
needed? Indicate bridges and Gull
yerts needing repairs. Is the road
drag used on earth roads? Are
weeds and underbrush cut from the
roadside? How are funds provided
for building and repairing roads, byl
property or by labor tax?
"Amount of money expended on
roads covered by route since route
was established? Is there any gen
eral movement to secure better
roads? Have farm values increased
since the establishment of the route?
What per cent?
''Do road officials give prompt at
tention to needed repairs? How many
days during the last twelve months
has service on the route been wholly |
or partially suspended owing to bad
roads?"
1t is inferred from some of the
above questions that the government
does not favor the maintenance of
rural mail routes where the county

NO CITY PRIMARY JUST NOW
Committee Decided That 1t Is Too
Early for an Election to NOmi-
nate Mayor and Aldermen.

There was some agitation of haV-
ing a primary on March 18th, the
date on which an election will be
held to fill the vacancy in the may
orally, for the nomination of mayor
and aldermen to be elected next De-
Cember.
The city executive committee met
and considered the matter, their
unanimous decision being that a pri-
mary now for the nomination of
municipal officers whose terms of
service would not begin until nearly
year hence would be premature,
and contrary to all custom and pre-
cedent.
The earliest a municipal primary
has ever been held in Dawson was
in August.
The committee, however, will like
ly call the election for some date in
June of July this year in order that
we may get through with all of our
politics before the business season
opens.
