ATTELL AND MORAN
 FIGHT T0A DRAW

hearty support in every part of the
state. All friends of the movement

every voter is called thereto on or be-
fore election day, and the Importance
of its adoption impressed upon him.
The men especially interested in this
movement are guarantee that it will
be put into effect, if carried, in the
best possible manner. Ex-Governor
Hoard and Senator Stout are two of
the most influential supporters of the
State Good Roads Association. Cover
nor Davidson and Speaker Ekern, both
known for their honesty Of purpose and
interest in true reforms, strongly IA
vored this amendment in the last legis-
lature. Another strong friend of the
movement is Hon. Irwin l.. Lenroot of
Superior. In a recent communication
regarding the good roads movement he
said II do not believe substantial
progress will be made in this movement
until the state extends financial aid
for the improvement of roads, and
offers to the local committees scientific
plans of construction and proper super
vision.
