A Few Facts Concerning Roads Fol
The Taxpayer To Ponder Over.

The gross extravaganza of the
County Commissioners since the
organization of this county is
simply appalling. The enormous
sum of 100000 has been ex-
pended on roads alone in this
county in the last eighteen months,
or since its organization, and the
one great question before the res
ident taxpayers is to know where
this money has gone.
Where are the good permanent
improvements to show for the ex-
penditure of this vast sum?
Tis true, something like $1,000
has been expended on the road
leading up the North fork of the
Clearwater River, when four times
that amount should have been
expended. The paltry sum of
100000 has been expended on
the Whiskey Creek grade, where
three times that amount should
have been expended, but not one
dollar has been expended on The
much proposed Ford's creek road
and the question naturally arises,
and we ask in all candor that for
all that is good and great, to tell
us if you can, where the other
1886, 10000 has gone to.
TAXPAYERS, have you ever
stopped to consider that if this
100000 had have been judi
ciously expended, it would not
only have completed the con-
struction of the three main AFTER
les i'll the way of roads in this
county, viz:
The North Fork road between
Ahsahka and Steiner's place lead
ing to Elk River; the Whiskey
Creek road, leading 10 the Wis
key creek Meadows and tie
Ford's creek road leading to tha,
rich and fertile prairie around
Fraser and Weippe, but after esn-
structing these three main tier
oughfares, there would still be
left the handsome sum of $4,000.
to maintain and construct other
roads in the county.
We would rather charge this
GROSS EXTRAVAGANZA of the
peoples money to lack a judg-
ment, or to carelessness, than
GRAFT, but it is little wonder
that with such a record not one
OF the present board is a candi-
date to succeed himself.
They may be good fellows and
all that, but they surely have
made a DISMAL FAILURE of

NOTHING LIKE NORTHWEsT.
The Best Section in all tie Greatra
World to Build a Home.

IL a section of our country which
contains but 20 per cent of tn area
or The United States and but 6 per
cent OF its population, produces So
per cent of the wheat; 3S per cent
OF the barley; 2S per cent of the
wool n 80 per cent OF the flax
seed each year., it ought to be as
good a section as there Is in the
world for a home.
That is just what the American
Northwest has been doing each
year and figures just compiled by
the North west Development League
snow that there are still S2,000,00O
acres of free government land in
the section while there are more
than 100000 acres of state and
privately owned land in the seven
states for sale at $40 per acre and
under.
Last year one of these states pro-
duced the best bushel of wheat in
the world and attracted widespread
attention.; another gave the world
the best twenty-five boxes OF apples
n still another grew the best bu-
shell of potatoese. tAll these prizes
coming into the American Northwes
are attracting the attention of hui
man millions.
This year it has been left for an
organization of the seven northwest
states to offer the worlds greatest
prize for wheat, $1,000. Tn North
west Development league will award
a prize for the best five bu-
of wheat produced in the seven
states at its Northwestern Products
exposition to be held in Minneapolis
November IL to %. The prize con-
sists of aa Big Four $50" farm trac-
tor. set of breaking plows. ETC., de-
free to the winner.
