WHILE we ire all su deeply Interested in te Improvement Oh inc
streets within the city limits of Il eno. and taking the preliminary steps
toward constructing a beautiful boulevard along hi banks o te ir"c-
kee river how about the roads within the county, but outside OF
city?
Here Is II little story that nay go II long ways war answering
hat question: Two gentlemen left Lucky Boy in an ntomobi at i
O'Clock yesterday morning, bound for Reno. The 10 or IN miles
from the starting point o he county line as covered In SIN honrs
easily, because the road that far ws in good condition. From WASH
~ Lake to Reno is about lG miles, and il took tn machine W Iuh
hours to cover the distance! Why? because that portion OF the oad
lying within Washoe county is in an abominable state. Those bridg-
~ and cuNeTs that vel o from six o twelve inches above IN
surface Of the road were that much below it, the machine hau /"
be handled with care, as though II were glass.
Now, is that a good advertisement for ne OF the largest richest
counties In the state-the county wherein Reno, the metropolis Of Ne
vada Is located?
Really. now, should o some thing be done to remedy this cn-
diuon If affairs? If 81, why not? If not, why not?-Journal.
The above item is IA in ever particular. With the exception of
about 10 mics of roads around the city of Reno, Washoe AS thc
roads of n county in the state. There is jus one adequate
highway In the county, that from Reno to Eunakers. Another piece
is between Reno and Sparks, about a mile of county road. The balance
of Washoes roads are mainly we'll worn wagon tracks, and some of
them are so badly worn that they are all but impossible except by the
strongest vehicles and largest teams.
