The Good Roads Proposition

According to the returns received by
the Review from its straw vote on the
bond issue proposition for the construc-
ton OF two trans-county roads, one from
Granite to Port Hill and the other from
Newport to Cabinet, there is little oppo-
sition to the proposal. In publishing it's
STRAW vote coupon last week the Review
suggested that "the districts have the use
of the monev in proportion to the amount
they pay in taxes" This is favorably
commented upon by some, and by others
it is taken exception to. However. if
the two highways were constructed by
the bond issue it would be impossible to
apportion the money on the road pro-
portionately to the tax paid, as all parts
of the road would havs to be built the
same. However, If there should be
money left for the construction of later
ais this money. the Review believes,
should be spent with some regard for
the districts paying the greatest proper
ton of the tax.
The only unfavorable comment the
Review has heard in regard to the pro-
posed bond isaue is that relating to the
powers OF the expenditure of the money
should the bond Issue be voted. Senator
Page fayors the election of commission
OF five or seven for this purpose. The
suggestion is a good one, and the i'm
provement should be in the hands OF such
commission rather than in the hands
OF the commissioners, since the latter
nave enough business to transact and
enough responsibility as it is. They no
doubt would welcome the election of
commission representative of the various
parts OF the county for the undertaking
OF 80 important work.-Sandpoin Re.

f0rds Sued for DAMAGES

At Standpoint the past week the dis
trict court has been hearing the damage
suit of Anna G. Kolstad against c. L.
Ford, the Adventist prea cher, and his
wife, of Albeni Falls, for $4,000. The
hearing was begun last Friday and was
still in progress Wednesday of this week
Mrs. Kolstad claims that during an
Adventist camp meeting held in Sand
point in the summer Of 1908 the Fords
got an undue influence over her daugh-
ter and prevailed upon her to leave her
home. The Fords claim they had moth
ing to do with the girl Elias leaving
home and will. upon the defense. make
an effort to show that Ella left her
mother because she did not want to
meet middle-aged man who was COM
ing from the east to propose to her with
her mothers consent.
The girl. since leaving her mother, has
spent much of the time at Medford,
Oregon. The plaintiff claims Ella has
been with friends of the Fords. The
girl in the case, red-cheeked and pretty,
is present in the court room and is ex-
pected to be an important witness for
the defense. She has nothing to do with
her mother and still sticks with the
Fords.

Tisha Boy, which translated In He.

month of OBJ, aCcoring to the Jewish
calendar, is to-day being observed the
world over by the Orthodox Jews with
services at the syiagogues. It was
on the ninth day OF '0bthat he second
Temple Of jerusalem was destroyed
during the reign Of Titus. Tie de.
struction of the holy place was at.
tended by an enormous loss Of life
among the Jews, and It Is in common,

that the day is set apart as day Of
mourning. 9i'
Fasting is one Of the attendant fea,

ter to pass his lips from last night
shutdown until this evening sunset
and spends the day reclting the his

we're a ruling power.
