SELECTION OF ROADS.

Editor Capital Journal:-In looking
over the list Of roads selected by the
county court to be improved with the
money, raised by the sale of bonds,
and noting tho amount apportiOned to
each road, it will be seen at a glance
that it is very unequal division of
the funds. First, take the road lead
ing from Salem to Aurora, and known
as the Pacific HighwRy, distance
about 25 miles, which gets 100000,
or $4,000 per mile, while the road
leading from Salem to Silverton, dis.
tance IA miles, gets $4,000, or about
So, 700 per mile. The road leading
from Salem to the jefferson road near
Sidney, via Liberty and ROsedale, dis.
tance IL miles, gets $55,000, or $4,5O0
per mile. The Salem Halls Ferry road
via Livesley station, distance six
miles, gets $4,000, or little over
81 900 per mile. On all the other
roads designated by the court to be
improved the amount of money which
it is proposed to expend per mile is
about the same as that for the last
three named here.

OPPOSED TO BONDS

Editor Capital Journal:-Sinee read

to vote for the road bond proposition,
| am quite convinced we resident tax.
payers should vote ono" He tells
the farmers that we residents of Sa-
lem are exempt from the payment of
taxes to build roads and bridges in
the county districts and that this is
not right.
In other words, our local banker
would have Salem taxpayers pave our
streets and build our bridges within
the corporation limits at our own ex-
pense and go out into the country and
help our farmer friends to pave miles
and miles of the public roads at a
final cost of Sl,100,000.
Our rural residents did not help us
to build our paved streets. We must
foot the bills ourselves, and that at
great sacrifice to many an owner of
small income. Yet everybody is at
liberty to use these streets.
Now, My advice 10 the farmers is
Daily capital journal. (Salem, Oregon) 1903-1919, 1914-05-02
OPEN FORUM.

Editor Capital Journal;-We are
told all kinds of nice things by the
paved roads boosters to get us to mort
gage our property to the extent of
$S5O,0OO by voting for the proposed
bonding issue.
Some of the reasons they advance
are ludicrous. Others are absurd. For
example, the Statesman on Wednesday
morning told us III screaming types
that "John D.. Rockefeller favors
roads with concrete foundation and
wearing surface Of brick"
Now, what in the Sam Hill does
John d. know about building roads
anyway. He is a plutocratic, multi
millionaire financier, and shrewd
enough to know that the more hard
surface roads he induces the dear peo-
pie to build at their expense the great.
This will increase the demand for gas
Oline and up goes the price. John
d. is keen enough to hoodwink even
an editor.
Then, we are told that Marion coun-
ty should build these hard surface
roads because Clatsop, Columbia, Multi
nomah and Jackson counties are build
ing them. Now, this is the weakest
kipd of an argument. AS well might
the mayor of Gervais tell his people
Fellow citizens, Salem and Portland
are growing cities. They are getting
ahead of us. We must hurry up and
pave our streets and build tall bust
ness structures and large, attractive
homes.p
The fact is, conditions are quite diff
ferent in the counties named from our
own situation. Portland and Multi
nomah county contains a large portion
of tho states taxable property. The
burden of taxation does not rest SO
heavy on the residents there as else
where, as Portland is the financial
transportation and market center of
the state.
Tho other three counties that have
voted for road bonds are thinly set
tied. Much of the lend is embraced in
large timbered tracts, owned by the
Weyerhaeuser and other wealthy in.
terosts. 1t is easy to see why resi-.
dents in those counties would vote for
the bond issue to build hard surface
roads when their cost would, for the
most part, be collected from wealthy
nonresident timber barons in the form
of taxes on their holdings.
This could not be done to any large
extent in Marion county. Counting
principal and interest, the bonded in
debtedness on which we are to vote
would amount to the staggering sun
of $1,700,000.
This amount would have to be paid
within the next 20 years, mostly by
the small farmers, local business mer
and day laborers. 1t would be stu
pendous burden for our people to at
tempt to carry in addition to what i:
already on their shoulders. 1t will
mean weary years of toll to many.
And what will it ali be fort WhC
knows how much of this hard-earneG
money will be judiciously spent fol
road-building when it becomes avail
able. Think of it. FARMER.

clear to me. You will have the same

There should be more in this life
