La Junta tribune., 1908-04-04

The contract for tie shalins of
the county road from the end of the
present shale road, near Swind. to a
point about three miles west, was
let a few days ago by State Engineer
Jaycox to F. c. Bassett, of Rocky
Ford. There were several bidders,
including w. H. King & Co.. and
James King. but the bid of Mr..
Bassett of twenty-nine cents per
running foot was the lowest and he
was awarded the contract. The
shale part of the road is to be fif-
teen feet wide. eight inches in depth
in the center and sloping to two
inches in depth on either side. The
last legislature appropriated $4,000
for the building of this road. 500
of which was reserved by the state
engineers Office for incidental ex-
penses. leaving balance Of S.. 800
available for the extension of the
road from its present terminous.
1t is estimated that this amount will
extend the road about three. miles.

Swink to Rocky Ford. The cost Of

Something to Think About.

Federal expenditures 1875 s135, 900, 900
Federal expenditures 1905 $685., 900, 0 0
These figures are given by Secretary
OF the Treasury Cortelyou, excluding
for purposes of comparison interest
on the public debt. but including pen
sions and many public works. They
are intended TO show the increase in
ordinary expenditure.
In the thirty years from 1873 to 1905
the population of the country increased
about 81 per cent, and the national
wealth, based on government stats
tics, 50 per cent whilst the cost of
government-not counting extraordi-
nary expenses advanced nearly 400
per cent.
How long can the nation keep up
this gait without mourning expense
and inviting disaster? Even as a "bil-
lion-dollar country" have we not
passed the limit Of prudence in cur
rent outlay?

Democratic Officers. What!

Should the fact of having paid
newspapers for advertising their
candidacy at the primary elections
disqualified those elected-and such
is the view OF prominent attorneys
The Aberdeen World figures the pres
ent incumbents would holdover Not
much. Such Democratic candidates
as could qualify would have TO be
reckoned with.
The Herald recalls two candidates
on the Democratic ticket who abso-
lutely refrained from any sort of ad-
vertising, A. s. Hodgdon. candidate
for representative for the Goth dis
trict. and Ed. Hoover. candidate for
county clerk, and perhaps, an investi-
cation would reveal others.
1t would be strange political con-
diton If the competition among Re-
publicans for nominations should re-
suit in a full set of Democratic Off
GERS for Chehalis county. II is
highly probable that some Democrat
ic contests will be filed in few
days

The Use Of Colleges.

The current notion that the four
years young man passes in college
are wasted must soon receive a check
II the broad view Of the object Of col
lege education given In his inaugural
address by President H. A. Garfield Of
Williams is accepted by the country
generally. President Garfield declared
that the chief end of the American
college is to train citizens to citizen
ship and that therein is an object
which should appeal TO every student,
whatever his life work is TO be- He
then brought this generaliza ton into
definite limits by saying, a nation
will be great and strong whose citi-
zens. bound together by common ira.
ditions. inspired by high ideals, march
forward with eager and steady tread
toward a goal which Is ever advanc-
ing" The definite aim Of colleges, he
holds, should be the training Of citi-
zens to this national ideal. and he
would exclude from college all young
men who are not in sympathy with it's
purpose or unwilling to devote them
selves to it.
Much has been said pro and con
upon the subject Of giving to our edu-
cation moral bias. Generally the
demand has been for an education
which Is practical and equips the STU
dent for immediate work that shall be
remunerative and be direct sequence
Of the studies pursued at school Mr.
Garfeld's conception at once lifts the
problem above the ultra practical
plane. To those who are 70 bear the
cost Of education this attitude may
seem reactionary. barking back TO
days when education was fostered for
its own sake and not for a direct prac-
teal end. The tendency is more and
more toward specialization In training
schools for the professions as well as
for trades. the arts and commerce
Perhaps the true college Of the fu-
ture will make training In the national
ideals its speciality.

January Smart Set.

Ralph Henry Barbour has surpassed
even the charm of his own previous
efforts in the rapid-fire movement and
absorbing breeziness of his latest
novel, "a FOOLS Wooing," which is
published complete in the January
Smart Set. To meet the conditions
of an inheritance an impecunious
young New York club man with bach
elor propensities must marry within
thirty days. The frantic search for
an eligible parti, the terrific whirl-
wind wooing that ensues and the
stormy progress Of this made-to-order
romance make story that if one of
the very greatest "thrillers" Of the

Annexing Cosmopolis.

In considering the annexation Of
Cosmopolis there are two leading
questions 10 be considered.
First-Does Cosmopolis desire TO
be annexed?
Second-Would it be profitable or
otherwise for Aberdeen al this time :?
4 reply 10 the first. should be had
from the residents of that town-not
from land spectators who hope 10
sell al advanced prices By calling it
Aberdeen. To the second there are
many things 10 be considered. not
least among them would be an i'm
mediate clamor for a free bridge over
the Chehalis river.
Concerning the willingness OF Cos
mopolis. all We know is that a petit
ton with 20 names was presented to
the city council last night. This
morning. word comes from Cosmo-
polls that remonstrance against the
proposed annexation has received 125
signatures in that town, and that IS
of the signers 10 the petition to the
Aberdeen council have asked that
their names be withdrawn. At the
November election 1S6 votes were
cast in Cosmopolis. so il will be seen
that decided opposition to the
movement exists in that town.
Manager Crazy, of the G. H. Rail-
way & Light Co. was seen this morn
ing about the statement that annex
alton would bring about five cent
fare between the two points. He said
the company could not think Of such
a reduction unless the travel was in
creased from 400 10 500 per cent.
and that the annexation would in no
way alter the terms Of his company's
franchise, or contract with Aberdeen.
The building of the Union Pacific
railroad down the South Side of the
Chehalis river promises to do much
for the development of that section,
as well as for the north side, and. un-
less Cosmopolis is anxious to come
in now, il will be we'll to wait a
few years and make one Job of con-
solidating the city of Grayport, with
10000 people, extending from the
west line Of Hoquiam to the east
line OF Cosmopolis.
