right of way to get the company
to build. Ii the right of way is
taken from the south side of the
road, the owners on the north side
who do not give foot Of land and
who will enjoy equal benefits
should put up for any damages
claimed by the south side owners
in the way of trees or property
damaged.
In fact the company should not
be asked to pay these damages, as
they are not foolish enough to
pay for right Of way when SO
many are falling over themselves
to give the company land if they
will build or another route.
The plans for road building and
improvements by the Boise Valley
railroad company mean much to
every town and community

where will the benefit be more

aud a half into Meridian. Even
the stub was paid for by a big
bonus secured from Meridian
citizens, who thought that even a

than nothing. The proposed new
line will go through the town, and
will save the expense of the stub
line and will make route much
shorter to Nampa. A trip will
then be made from Boise to
Nampa in about 80 minutes, and
it will take 15 minutes or more

Iidian to Boise. A freight house

Build the Roads Now!

There has been a great deal of
talk about good roads in Ada
county for many years and out
side of the new concrete highway
now building between Boise and
Meridian, nothing has crystalized
and the roads are in no better
condition than when the agitation
was started years ago.
This week at Boise, however, a
plan was suggested which the
Times believes is a good one and
which means, if carried out, that
during the lifetime of those now
residing near and using the roads,
a system of highways will be pro-
vided and the dreams. of the most
enthusiastic good.roads advocate
will come true.
The proposition is to vote bonds
of the county to the amount OF
81, 100000 to build a system cover.
ing all the main roads of the
county, or about 130 miles, these
to be constructed of concrete sim.
liar to the road now building, OIL
some other good material. The
campaign is one of education. and
has just been started and the
amount to be voted or the kind, oi
construction are matters that car
be settled after the people signify
their willingness to bond the
count y for the work.
The plan suggested by DIR
l.. p. McCalla, in an address be-
fore the farmers and business mer
at the Boise Commercial clut
rooms last Saturday, was compre
hensive, and opened the matter
for discussion. G, III. Packenham

reduce the interest one-tentn each
year. aud the burden will tighten
up fast. However, the usual way
Of doing is To refund The bond,
renew them and not pay any of
the principal. but continue to pay
only the small interest of4 to Al
per cent This is cheaper money
than We can hope to get for use in
any private affairs, and is good
business Investment.
Now let lis look at il from this
point Of view for minute. If
you own farm Of 40 acres and it
was assessed at 800 per acre last
year, you paid Sl6 into the road
fund. IL you own a home valued
at $4,000. you paid the same
amount. Now suppose we bond
for sum sufficient to build these
roads. we get the use of the roads
and instead Of paying the SIG as
you did last year you viii pay IS
Which is the better business plan,
to have bad roads and pay big
tax in money and struggle through
the mud and dust. or have a per-
feet system of roads and pay rel
atively road tax of one-half the
amount you are now paying. and
must expect to pay if we ever get
any roads built in this county by
the present system?"

shot said, "but ybur roads are
damnable. Good roads is one Of
the necessities of the day; we must
have them, and with this bond
issue we would have them at once
and our coming generations would
pay for them when they will be
far better able than we are to-day F"
DR.. McCalla stated that hun
dreds of counties throughout the
country were now bonding for
roads, including jackson county,
Oregon, for S1,5OO,0O0 This is
not as good or rich a county as
Ada. and Medford, the biggesr
town, has about 1000 people,
Continuing he said;
Nov on the present plan Of
operation, the direct tax system,
we paid last year $I24,OO0 taxes
into the ROAD fund, or a 81 mills
levy IF we were to bond for
ISL 100000 in Ada county and
build complete system of roads
at once, we could sell these bonds
for A to Al per cent interest, which
would be $4,000 to $4,000. The
upkeep of the system of roads,
after it is built, will not exceed
5000 per mile year, SO our best
road engineers tell us. Now
with system of say 130 miles of
hard surfaced road which will give
a system that will completely cover
the county and will give every

built.
NOV which is the better plan,
go on paying $4,000 as we did
last year. and s124.000 as we did

roads now. aud while we are usinl
