STATE AID FOR
RIVER ROAD FAVORED



The Oregouian has received the fol-
lowing letter from Governor West and
knowing that the rUad subject Is Of I'M
portance and interest throughout the
state, chgerfully subjoins the desired
replies: ...,
Salem. March 20. ITO the Editor.
In order that We may have the bene-
fit Of your views upon the good roads
problem. will you kindly answer 10 The
Oregouian the following questions, to-
wit:
l-Do you favor the construction Of
permanent roads in the state!
2-lf so, by what means would you
raise the funds 10 carry on the work
direct taxation OF sale Of bonds!
3-if by direct taxation, whether
through a state or local tax and to
what eXtentt
4-lf by the issuance Of bonds,
whether state or county, and what
should be the limit Of the issue2
Oswald West
I-Yes.
2 Either IN respect to raising county
funds
3-The Oreg0uan at this time op-
poses state bonds for road work, but
approves incidental state aid by direct
appropriation; such aid should consist
Of payment Of part Of the cost Of con-
structing trunk lines that would be Of
general benefit, but should be applied
only in the event that the general in
terost in the road exceed the local in
terest.
For example, the state should aid in
the construction of the Columbia High
way through Hood River county. It is
an expensive section Of the work and
too great a burden to be fairly borne
by Hood River alone; the highway will
be a main trunk line between Eastern
and Western Oregon.
4-lhe issuance Of bonds or the levy
ing Of a tax by the county should be
based on the peculiar needs of the To-
cality and what the people desire. The
Oregonian does not see the necessity of
an infeXble limitation II the people
are given voice in the matter they will
not, at least for some years to come,
tax themselves eXtravagantly, even for
the laudable purpose Of getting good
roads.

A biological survey of Oregon tina
will result in a well stocked museum
at the State University Of animals,
birds and fishes. has been begun by the
university, in conjunction with the
State Fish and Game Commission and
the Federal Biological Survey. The
undertaking will extend over years. :.
Certain ANIMALS are nearing extinc-
tion in this state. The otter is one
species. One or two kinds Of deer are
now few in number, notably the desert
antelope. Timber wolves will soon be
extinct. There are few specimens of
mountain sheep or mountain goats,
those that exist being in STEMS range,
Harney county. and in the WalIowa.
Some varieties of game birds are get
ting scarce.
Animals and birds, great and small,
common and rare, will find place in
the museum that is proposed. The
specimens will be used constantly in
educational work they will, in add-
ti0n, constitute a biological record for
the state, and will be a source of di-
version for visitors to the State Uni
versity.
A local citizen, who formerly resided
in Minnesota, where the small catfish,
the angling for which caused great
sport for boys, were called "bull-
heads, tells of interesting expert
ments he had in his young days. I'VE
used to catch the fish, " he says, "and
cut their heads off. have taken a
dozen or more Of these heads and
placed them in tin pail, covering the
pail with board and placing large
rock on the board.
Cats, you know, are fond of fish,
and | have seen all the cats in the
neighborhood come to that pail. The
neighbors used TO be disturbed, and we
boys would cudde down in our beds
and laugh for hours. while the heads of
families on the street wondered what
the feline row was about. | have seen
my father disturbed by the cat pow
WOW, and you may be sure never told
him of the pail of fish heads.

On former years such has been the
dearth of angle worms that fishermen
were unable to find a sufficient uuan-
tity for their needs. The lawns, how
ever, are now filled with them. The rain
last week drove them from their bur
rows on the courthouse lawn, and gal
Ions of the worms fell over the con.
crete retaining walls at the side of the
steps there.
