IMPORTANCE Of GOOD
ROADS BEING URGED
Educational Campaign to be Launch
ed by Boosters OF Roll up Vote
For Bond Issue
BOARD HAS CONSISTENT PLAN
intends to Expend 100000 In the
Building of Bridges and Roads
That Need Little Repair

An educational campaign Is urged
by the good roads boosters to the
end that the bond issue of 100000
may cary without opposition. Ev-
cryone realizes the Importance of
buildin z good roads, constructing
bridges, and keeping the roads that
now exist in the best possible condi-
ton. 1t is being pointed out that No
community can be prosperous and
growing without good highways. over
which farmers and others can reach
the centers of trade to buy and sell.
The bonds. it is proposed. will b.
issued at rate of S25 200 annually,
ar such part of this sum ~ may be
needed. This same means that II
consistent plan may be carried oui
over period of years. The work
heretofore has been intermittent and
resulted frequently in tearing up more
than building up. Often times half
done work of the haphazard sort is
worse than no work at all.
OF course the tax payer Is inter
rsted in just what proportion of ihle
large sum he will have to pay. How
light the burden is when equilably
distributed is illustrated by the fol-
lowing figures ocst to tax payer now
having $500 taxes. ~ additional n
year; to tax payer now paying 500
taxes. 81 60 additional n year: to tax
payer now paying $40 taxes. l6c ad-
litional. II is worth the money.
The present road board is pledged
,o see that whatever work is done.
will be permanent. Substantial
bridges will be built over streams
that are now impnaable for a sea
son and the highways will be crown
ed and surfaced. Such roads require
little attention and expense for NJ
keep: they are the chapest in ih,
long run and the hest investemcnt u
community can make.
The bond issue is up to the voters
II is certain that they will cnd"r>"
the project in the good old I.un"
county way. The bonds must he Is.
sued if the county is to have good
roads. At the present time there is
no other way in whish the funds can
h" had.

THE OIL EXCITEMENT At COLUMBUS
STILL RACES WITHOUT ABATEMENT
Anderson Well 0ozes Oil Through a
Plug Within Five Feet Of the
Surface; Well Is Down Only a
Little More Than $50 Feet

The oil excitement at Columbus rn
ses unabated. The burlap plug plac
ed in the j. II. Anderson well when
oil was first struck there about II
year ago has failed To keep the fluid
from soaking through and it now is
standing within five feet of the sur
face. A test of the oil shows that it
is unusually pure,and has paraffine
hasc. The Anderson well Is only II
lrifle more than five hundred feet
deep.
Rumors that the owners of the well
we're negotiating with the Standard
Dil Company,have been floating a
houl. These people ownl.IOO acres
. placer claims. The big oil com
pany.so it is reported, will soon sink
II test well. The Andersons are To
receive 10 per cent of the oil found.
The Southern Pacific railroad COM
pany is also on the ground making
Investigations, it is asserted. This
would mean another branch line for
Deming in ease the company decided
to enter the field Several other oil
companies also have representatives
in Columbus.
The excitement began about two
months ago, when william Farrah of
Albuquerque got wind of the strike
and filed on 1900 acres by Jumping
the homestead and desert entries al
ready filed on the land. His stakes
we're at first pulled up by the angry
homesteaders but he kept at II and
finally won out. Now every foot OF
land for miles around the strike Is
protected by II mineral filing.

DREAM MAY VET COME TRUE


Albert Wallis the old-iimc railroad
builder Of the southwest, is in the city
greeting his many friends. Mr.. Wal
was the contractor who made the
Grade of the "Manann" railroad from
Drming Ia the Jnnos river in Mexico.
and assisted in driving the silver
spike, july 1880. which was expected
Ia unite Dcming with all creation by
way of Mexico and the Pacific ocean
The expectation was all il amounted
To, but Dcming enjoyed building mir
castles those days. and such dreams
added to the many pleasure of those
old times. However. that dream may
get to come true, for as projected
the road would pass through the hes,
agricultural. grazing aud mining dis
ilicts of Mexico, and is good bust
ness proposition.
A. To the Mannna Railroad the fol.
lowing from the Deming Headlight of
Jul, ). 1889. is worth reproducing:
Work began in earnest On the grade
of the Dcming. Sierra Madrr 4 Paci
iic railroad last Monday morning and
by Tuesday evening about one mile of
road bed had been thrown M. EveL
with the small force now NJ work,
Chief Engineer Weber estimates that
the road will be complied to Las l'o-
Tomas by the 23rd of August, and as
1t is settled the during the coming
week the grading outfit will be more
than doubled. the probabilities are
that Mr.. Weber's time will be beaten.
All the laborers on the road are green
hands at railroad work, but are
breaking in rapidly and with "A few
days experience vii lbc nble to make
standard lime over the road.

the wet prophets who year ago predicted financial
ruin if the city should vote out the saloon Despite
the loss OF $4,000 license money Freeport is holding
her very we'll Although still controlled by
administration the citys financial condition is no
worse than in previous years. Every knows that
for years there has been extravaganza and misman-
agement in the conduct of the ctys affairs. During
the last wet year, the expenses $o8o8oI over and
above the appropriations.
One item alone will show the recklessness with
which the city's money spent. A little over a
year ago, S24,7OO paid out for a new equipment
for the fire department. Although the city had at the
time as good fire equipment as other cities, it pur
chased complete set of motor trucks ladders etc.
and boasts the best fire equipment in the state
In addition to this large item of expense, the council
decided to rebuild bridge the Peccatonica
This was done at the very time that the wet members
of the council in speeches before that body were
procaimng to the voters of Freeport that it would be
impossible to finance the citys affairs without the
liquor money.
Notwithstanding all this, however, the city is
meeting its obligations without any more than
the usual embarrassment. With competent officers in
charge, business of Freeport doubts that the
ctys financial affairs will soon be in excellent con-
dition.
Business conditions and conditions generally in
Freeport very good,' writes leading business
man, considering the general business depression
throughout the country they especially good.
Our banks have more deposit this year than for
several previous years, and in my opinion the
larger than it has BEEN base this statement
upon the report of one of prominent bankers
Several weeks after local option went into effect,
of the largest general merchandise stores in the
city reported that it had done the largest Saturdays
business in its history. A meat merchant, who has
been in the business continuously for over twenty
years in the city, stated that Saturday night he
had been asked to cash three $40 bills, the first
perience of the kind he had ever had. Other mer-
chants give similar testimony.
Notwithstanding the fact that wet adminisra-
ton has done all it could block enforcement of the
liquor laws, there is less drunkenness under dry rule
than under wet. The city clerks report gives
figures but the fact is generally conceded
