GOOD ROAD ADVOCATE

/ have been travelling the county
roads considerably during the past
three years and think that now is the
time for the property owners to take
some definite action in the way of
improving the condition of the roads.
The funds that the county now
has available for the building and
improving of roads are not sufficient
to meet the demands, and it is my
opinion that a good-sized bond is
sue for this purpose would be good
thing for the county if the funds so
obtained were expended in the prop
er manner. 1t is my opinion that in
order to get the best returns from
the money that definite plan for
the building Of the roads should be
agreed upon, and that in order to
get the matter into proper condition
to submit to the voters that an ex-
pert on road building should be- en-
ployed to work with the county en-
gineer in the preparation of plans
and specifications, and that such
plans and specifications would indi-
cate just what was necessary and
best to be done, and where, so that
the voters would have clear and def
mite information as to the matter
submitted for their votes.
1t is my idea that the money now
used for the building and improve
ment of the roads could be used to
pay the interest on the bonds and
also the principal, so that the taxes
would not be increased by the bond
issue. The people of the county
would simply get at once what would
otherwise take 20 years to acquire,
and at no extra cost. And each dis
trict in the county would, by such
procedure, get it's proper share OF
the general improvement, otherwise
the bond issue would not carry.
In order to get the services of an
expert for the purpose of preparing
the proper specifications for the
building and improving of such roads
and putting the details in such form
that the work could all be let by
contract to the lowest bidder, | am
willing to subscribe literally to a
fund to pay the expense, so that the
county would not be obliged to pay
any of the preliminary expense. And
| am also willing, If the bond issue
his not sufficient to meet the expense
necessary to do the work that ought
to be done, to subscribe literally to
a fund to be expended on the build
ing of the roads / would consider
the subscriptions in the nature OF
very good investment for the reason
that good roads would enhance the
value of real estate throughout the
county and every land owner would
reap a great benefit.
I believe that the improvement OF
the road conditions would make
travel so much more pleasant that it
would be a great factor in inducing
the land buyers to make their per-
manent homes among us and there
by greatly increase the population
OF the county.

Spokane, Sept. 3.-Killilay put his
sixth straight crimp into the ambl-
lions of Gardner, the Santa Clara
college star, and the Indians had lit
tie difficulty making it four out OF
five from Vancouver. Score, Spo-
kane 8, Vancouver 3. For four in
nings the battle between Killilay and
Gardner, the leagues premier right
handlers, between whom a pretty riv-
airy has sprung up, was intensely ex-
citing. Frisk's muff permitted Van
couver to put run over in the fifth,
the first against either of the crack
twirlers. Then Gardeners wildness,
poor judgment on hunts and an error
by James gave opportunity for the
succeeding hits of Cooney. Nordyke

EXTEND IT'S TRACKS
Great Northern Laying Track in Al
ley Between Kittitas and OrOndO.

The Great Northern is now extend
ing it's traffic track in the alley be-
tween Columbia and Wenatchee from
kittitas north to Orondo. Rails are
being laid today. This is made neces-
sary on account of the need of more
side track. During the day there Is
an average of five freight trains pass
ing through Wenatchee each way
four passenger trains and one mail
train, making an average of 20 trains
which arrive at the local depot each
day.
The local business is also very
heavy and during the last two weeks
there has been an average of 20
freight cars sent out of here each day.
This in addition to the local freight
business makes this a very important
shipping point. On account of the
amount of freight business original
ing in this point almost every night
this week it has been necessary to
send an engine from Leavenworth to
haul out of here train for delivery
to the Cascade division. The Spokane
Leavenworth division has always been
more crowded that the coast division.
and the Leavenworth engine has been
obliged to take up this Wenatchee
freight for delivery west of the tun-
mel.

ment has been writing similar letters
to Judge Lawlor, but some months ago

Sum of $4,000

THINGS,

The new monorail street car, like
the airship, is proving costly in
vention by the number OF human
victims it has already claimed in
its experimental process. In New
York recently number of persons
were injured, some seriously, on
the initial trip over recently COM
pleted monorail line. Such ac-
cidents emphasize the tremendous
risk which must be taken before
these modern inventions become
adapted to general use. But as in
the case of the automobile, mans
skill and perseverance, will conquer
in the end.
Every normal human being pos
sesses natural craving for amuse-
ment Of some kind at ell ages of
existence. The love for pleasure is
pot peculiar to the young alone.
It shapes, influences and directs
the lives of the young men and
women Of all nations whose hearts
have become unresponsive to the
gentle innocent pastime with which
loving parents endeavor to enliven
the home and whose minds have
become infamed with the mislead-
ing accounts of pleasures to be
found elsewhere. To those who
have exchanged the enchanting
dreams of youth for the sterner re-
!. atty of mature life and the neces-
sity of meeting and supplying the
demands Of their respective posi-
tons the desire for pleasure often
brings discontentment and sorrow,
if ungratifed, or opens the door OF
the home to poverty and want, it
INDUCED in unwisely and without
regard for cost or result. To those
who have reached the sunset trail,
whose hearts no longer glow with
the fervor of youth and whose time
dimmed eyes have turned from the
glittering, intoxicating joys of life,
it is but to find pleasure in solitude
and meditation; to live in joyful
contemplation of the past and find
innocent and satisfying amuse-
ment as BELTS their age and sta
ton. 1t is all amusement and the
world never tires Of the continuous
rounds of gaiety provided for it's
Entertainment. In fact amusement
is absolutely necessary in order to
preserve healthy mind and body.
There is more truth than beauty in
the saying, call work and no play
makes Jack dull boy" Shut a
81 man up for time and deprive him
= Of all amusement and the result is
startling. He becomes premature
t. ly aged, many of the bodily senses
Z grow inert, the whole aspect of
4 life takes on different hue, he
. loses his sense OF humor, becomes
y morbid and often views the world
9 and it's doings with scornful dis
Y trust. Amusement is the spice OF
j life, the one thing which brightens
the darkest existence and causes all
q who seek and enjoy it to forget,
- for the time at least their cares
20 and sorrows.
