selling serial bonds.
These are the principal objections
so far presented to the bond issue
itself. There seems to be pretty gen.
eral satisfaction with the roads Sc
lected for improvement, but, as with
everything else, there is objection even
to that. However, it is probably as
good as could be made.
of course, there are objections from
some quarters as to the manner in
which the funds shall be used, and
who shall have charge of the work,
but that is not material to the main
issue, that of the bonds themselves.
l have presented the above as about
all the objections that are made to
the bond issue. 1t presents them, not
for the purpose of creating sentiment
either for or against the bond issue,
but as plain statement of the objec-
tions that are made to the bond issue,
in order that the voters may consider
intelligently from all angles When
that is done, and the people have de-
cided, there will be no examinations
nor recriminations. The people have
the bills to pay, they are building their
own roads, spending their own money,
and whether it is for good or i'll, is
no ones business but theirs.

ROAD BONDS AND INTEREST.

To the Editor: "No one can argue
against good roads," says the COM
mittee in charge of the campaign for
bonding the county for $S50,00 for
the purpose of building hard surfaced
ty Judge Bushey. This statement is
true, if taken in the sense that no
no one can object to having good
roads. There is no difference of opin-
ion on that question. There are many
things, however, to consider in connec-
tion with the proposed road bonds, and
there are many and widely varying
opinions as to the best method of Sc
curing these good roads that we all
want
Your correspondent believes, as does
everybody else, in good roads, reaiz-
ing that they are necessary to the
growth, development and welfare of
the county. However, it believes that
whatever plan is adopted for securing
such system of roads should be given
the fullest publicity, and all its bad
points, as well as its good ones, pointed
out, so that every voter can pass upon
the measure intelligently.
For the roads, ii can be said that we
need them, and must have them
OF the proposed plan for getting the
money for the work there is consid-
erable criticism, which is natural and
expected Let us present some of the
objections made, not for the purpose
of opposing the bond issue, but for the
sole purpose of throwing full light
upon it, so that all may understand.
The county Judge has complied with
the requirements of the law. He has
selected the roads upon which the mon
ey is to be expended, and stated the
amount which shall be expended on
each. He has stated the length Of time
which the bonds shall run, and the rate
Of interest they are to bear, and has
set the election for voting upon the
matter for May 15, the date Of the
primary election.
The bonds are to run 20 years and
bear 5 per cent interest. 1t is provid-
ed that for the first three years only
the interest, which amounts to $42,500
year, shall be paid. The fourth year
a sinking fund must be started, and
each year thereafter such sum shall be
collected for this fund as will be suf-
ficient at the end Of the s0-year term
Daily capital journal. (Salem, Oregon) 1903-1919, 1914-04-25

to meet the bonds. In the meanwhile,
the interest for the 20 years will ex-
aetly equal the principal, and amount
to the sum of $850,000.
The sum. to be raised annually for
the II years in which the sinking fund
would be provided for would be $780,
900 yearly, but this would be reduced
by the amount the interest on the sink
ing fund at the rate of per cent,
would raise.
Without making close calculation,
this would cause the payments to be
about $42,50O year for IL years; the
interest on the sinking fund at per
cent making up the difference of $l27,-
500. This would make the actual sum
paid out about 81 ,572, 500
The objection raised by some is that
the taxpayers put in this sinking fund
some $42,50O yearly which draws only
2 per cent, while at the same time the
rate of interest is 6 to 8 per cent that
he must pay on all money he individ-
ually b0rrows.
The objection further is that this
HlOHeJy IL bno UUhuo eho DOiu IL ~ lump
will lay in the banks, drawing but 2
per cent for the people, while they are
paying per cent on it. 1t would be
two years, at least, before this money
would be expended, and it is safe to
that sum equal to fully year s
interest on the whole sum would be
paid before the money could be used.
A still further objection is made by
some that saving of $250,000 could
be made by having the bonds made in
serial form, and payable As they fall
due ,one each year. These objectors
point out that the sinking fund loaned
out at 2 per cent would permit those
to whom it was loaned, the banks with
which it was deposited, to use this
sinking fund of about $42,5O0 year,
loaning it at 6 to s per cent, and thus
getting the use of what would he on
the whole fund, with $42,500 on de-
posit 16 years, the same sum for Is
years, and SO on, equal to $42,500 for
1876 years at 2 per cent year. The
repositories would draw a net inter
est of from to 6 per cent on this
sum, and at tho 4 per cent rate the

BOND SENTIMENT GROWING.
+ = = = = = r + + r = !

To the editor; The campaign for
the Marion county good roads bond is
sue is making headway rapidly. Let
ters coming in from various parts of
the county indicate that sentiment is
changing rapidly. Volunteer workers
are offering their services to the gen.
eral committee. 1t is remarkable
fact that the first volunteer over the
telephone was a woman whose heart is
in the right place for good roads. Vol
untary contributions of money are
coming in to defray the expenses of
the campaign. Letters were received
at headquarters yesterday from
prominent stock raiser at Champoeg,
from a business man at Aurora and
from a farmer near Silverton. The
latter donated to the purse $3.50, made
up at Silverton by the friends of good
roads. Contrary to all expectations,
,hhe whole Sdlverton country is be-
coming aroused on the subject. OF
course, there are old-timers among the
land owners who are doubtful ON the
