HOW'S THIS FOR A KN0CKER {?

When 4 man comes into a COM
munity, takes up his residence there
in. sets up in business, and, in de-
gree, at least, depends upon the pco-
pie of that community for his bread
and butter. we hold that he owes Ia
these people and their home city n
measure of loyalty. At any rate we
feel that he certainly should refrain
from deliberately attempting to dam
age tho section and people from
whom he is receiving daily iayors.
We are led to these reflections by
letter which has been shown us,
and which WAS written by Il person,
who has recently engaged in the real
estate business in Lakeland, to 4
resident OF another State. This north
ern man had written an inquiry to
the Lakeland Board of Trade lie
was contemplating coming to Flor
IDA and wanted to know something
about the prices of lands and con-
d;tions generally in this section. The
Lakeland real estate man applied to
the Lakeland Board of Trade for Just
such inquiries, which might help him
in his business.
Then the Lakeland real estate man
sat down and wrote to the man who
wanted information about Lakeland.
The communication struck the reci-
pient as SO peculiar that he enclosed
j: to the Board of Trade. with the
comment: is this the kind of bOos-
tiers you have down thcre?"
The letter was a boost all right :
for another part of Florida, remote
from this section 1t rccOunted the
merits of this far-away part of Flor
ida, to which the writer said he was
going to remove in a few months. Ii
made the statement that in this por-
tion of the State there is 4 freeze ev-
cry few seasons, which kills every
thing. and ruins the groves. There
are other statements of like tenor, all
rejecting unfavorably upon the
Lakeland section. and comparing it
disadvantageously to the other part
of Florida referred to.
We do not deny that there are 9TH
er good sections of this State beside
ours. We have no knocks for any
part of the State. We do know that
the lake region of Polk county. OF
which Lakeland is the queen city
is unsurpassed in Florida or the
South. climate. healthfulness. fertil-
ity of soil. diversity of products all
desirable things considered W,
consider that a man has a perfee,
right to his opinion if he prefer.
some other part of Florida to this
But We do not think it is right oil
proper for him to set up in this com
munity, get his living out of it, us,
the machinery of its Board of Trade
10 further his business. and then de-
liberately misrepresent it and spread
harmful stories about it that have
no foundation in fact.
What do you think about it?

served the visiting Hood River.men.
But as the meal progressed not another
topic other than good roads was dis
eussed. II think of good roads and
nothing else when I'm up here" said
Mr.. Hill, land I'm up here every
week end. Indeed. IN miss nv sleep
TO add to my knowledge to improve
highways"
You can make lasting and beautiful
highways here in the northwest for an
average cost of 81, 600 per mile with
convict labor and for $40. 600 per mile
with free labor, according to the fig
ures compiled by the road enthusiast.
One Of the stretches Of highway at
Mary Hill is constructed of heavy
hasalt taken from a near by cliff and
an asphaltum Of a certain grade. both
heated to q temperature of 200 degrees
and poured together in a mixer. The
hot oil penetrates TO the center Of the
fragments of stone, while IL the stone
were cold II would only form an outer
coating. With the exception that the
English road is made of iron furnace
Stag the Hill highway is an exact dupi-
cate of the Great North Road of
England, which has stood the tests Of
heavy traffic for the past Is years. Mr..
Hill has taken photographs of the
highway every year for the past five
years and declares that scarcely a
change can be detected in its surface.
The building of roads, or the value
of them is impossible of estimation. {"
says Mr.. Hill. "Until after the Co.
lumbia river road is completed the
people of the communities through
which it will pass will not begin to
realize its worth. ! wish that could
secure an option on the wealth of the
states of Oregon and Washington and
after having adequately supplied them
with the best Of roads realize the diff.
ference in the value of the land and
other property.
The return trip was made by way of
Goldendale, Glenwood, Husum and White
Salmon. Tire trouble was had with
one Of the three machines making the
journey and the party was delayed for
over an hour at Goldendale. From
Maryhill to Glenwood the roads are
good, The party drew up at Glenwood
at about seven O'Clock and after a con
ference decided to motor toward Hood
River instead of spending the night
there. 1t was eleven o'clock when the
bluff of the White Salmon was reache d
and.the brilliant lights of Hood River
were seen across the river. The ma.
chimes had covered distance of l50
miles.
Every man who made the trip re-
turned more enthusiastic in his desire
for good roads, So we'll were they i'm
pressed with the highways seen at
Maryhill that 1t is planned to send a
special committee there in the near flu
ture to make study of the details of
Mr.. Hills construction of highways.
Those who made the trip were: c..
