IAN urgent appeal IS being |
sent out by the Rocky Mountain
Highway Association. with head
quarters in this city, to all COM
mercial organizations in the state
that they unite in aiding to Sc
cure the passage of the good
roads bills now before the pres
ent legislature. 1t is asked that
the commercial bodies get in
touch with their representatives
and urge upon them the necessi-
ty for the passage of the bill
proposed. Through the medium
of the press an appeal is also is
sued to every person interested
in good roads to use his influence
to secure the passage of these
bills. 1t is suggested that indi-
vidual letters be sent the repre-
sentatives and senators urging
them to act.
The principal bill now before
the legislature provides for the
appointment of state highway
commission, whose duty it shall
be to aid in the construction and
m a in e nance of h Ugh W ays
throughout the state. The bill
also provides for appropriation
of $500 for use as state aid
for those counties that build per-
manent roads. The bill has been
introduced in the senate by Sen
ator Ehrhart of Chaffee and is
known there as Sanate Bill No.
So. In the house the bill was in
troduced by Representative H.
E. Hits of Denver, and in that
body is designated as H. B. No.
271. AS yet the measures are
still in the hands of the finance
committee of the house, and the
committee on appropriations and
expenditures in the house. 1t is
expected, however, that these
bills will be taken up within the
next few days and brought be-
fore the two houses.
Colorado needs some good
roads legislation" declared C..
A. johnson, vice president of the
Rocky Mountain Highway associ-
alton recently. "At the present
time this state, with the grand
est scenery in the world, and
with the finest agricultural soil
to be found anywhere, is losing
/ millions of dollars each year be-
cause of the fact that we have
no good mountain roads for the
tourists who wish to travel leis-
urely through our hills, and fur
ther because the present bad
roads tend to increase rather than
decrease the cost of production
for the farmer. Nowadays bad
road means that the farmer can
haul only about half the load to
market that he could with good
roads. This means just double
expense in getting his products
! to his markets.
There is not a state in the
Union but what far exceeds Colo
rado in good roads. In Utah at
the present session of the legis-
lature there were at least six
good roads bills presented, and
practically every one of them has
been enacted into law. Idaho,
Wyoming and other states have
also passed good roads legisla-
ton. and Colorado should do so
this year. Today there are only
] fourteen states in the entire coun-
try that have no highway COM
! mission, and Colorado, with the
greatest resources of them all,
is one of these.

campaign of publicity and edu-
cation for the last six months.

CONTESTS THE Villas WILL
Widow of Former Senator Claims
Halt of Several Millions

Tacoma, Oct. 30.-Mrs Anna NJ. vi
las, widow of former Senator William
f. Villas of Wisconsin, is asserting a
copartnership community claim to
equal one-half of all Senator Villas
estate. Timber properties and real
estate worth approximately $4,000, 900
are located in this state. The will
has been probated here.
Mr. Villas has filed a petition in the

Mrs. Villas asserts that she and her
husband entered a co-partnership
agreement for general investment and
that she loaned her husband large
sums of money for subsequent invest
ment which is now represented by
property in the state of Washington.

the protest that Mrs. Villas objected
to the provisions of Senator Villas
will by which the major portion of his
estate goes to the University of Wis
consin.

the bulk of his estate said to be worth
50, 100000 to the University of Wis
consin, was admitted to probate yes
terday and j. r. Gregory was appoint
ed administrator. The court ordered
the administrators to hold subject to
the order of the court, one-half of all
moneys coming into his custody until
the interest of Mrs. Anna NJ. Villas
shall be fully determined. Mrs. Villas
claims an undivided half interest IN
the property in this state.
William f. Villas was born in Chel
sea, Vt, July 8, 1910, went to Wadis
on Wis. with his father to live when
eleven years old. his father being q
brother of the aged Harrison NJ. Villas
of this city; graduated from the Uni
versity of Wisconsin was colonel of
Wisconsin regiment at the close Of
the Civil war; for 80 years was CON
spicuous as a trial lawyer in the mid
die West: was postmaster general
and secretary of the interior under
President Cleveland; later was the
only democratic u. S. senator Wiscon-
sin ever had; was always a keen bus
mess man; invested judiciousy the
earnings of a large corporation prac-
tice covering many years in coal and
iron mines. in lumber and in pulp
mills; died August 81, 1908 when his
estate was variously estimated at be-
tween S2,O00,000 and S4,00O,000: left
by will the bulk of his estate in trust
for the University of Wisconsin in
which for many years he was a pro
fessor of law. His immediate family
