A GREATER WRONG.

There is greater crime than
voting debt on posterity. 1t is be-
queathing to coming generations such
roads as the fathers ard mothers of
Clearwater county are now travelling
And why are we wronging Children if
we leave them good highways, though
but partly paid for? 1t is crime
not to leave our roads better than we
fourd them. and it does not wrong
posterity if posterity helps to pay for
something worth the money. Some
people use this argument to escape
doing their duty to their children.
But how can we impose on future
generations when a one mill tax for
nine years will more than pay off the
proposed bonds? The Idaho law
used to provide, in fact, compelled
the annual levying of enough to retire
bonds at maturity. And the courts
will enforce this law should there be
any inclination to postpone payment
til f.ee lnis generatiln ) assed
away and posterity takes up the bur
den.
Clearwater Republican. [volume] (Orofino, Idaho) 1912-1922, 1915-08-06
THE PEOPLES BUSINESS.

Keep this in mind: The proposed
bond election is only of general inter-
est to the Clearwater Republican.
Personally it makes little difference
how the election goes. This paper
is supporting bonds because it believes
it is the only way out of bad situa-
ton, and because it seems to be the
only way to get needed roads in any
reasonable time. With those who
look at the matter in different light
this paper has no personal quarrel.
We are not going to fall out over it.
Nor are we going to permit the dis
cussion to become personal or bitter.
The columns of the paper are open to
all because of desire to give the
people all the facts, and discussion
is solicited. We especially desire to
have two phases of the matter discus
sed the. proper distribution of any
money raised by bonds, and how to
best raise the needed money. 1t is
claimed by some there is no need of
bonds. AS citizen we would like to
know the basis for this statement, and
the law upon which it is based.
There are those who favor bonds if
their district is not overlooked.
Therefore, it might be we'll, as citi-
zens, to meet with the county board
and come to some definite arrangement
and understanding. That each COM
missioner's district should have an
even break goes without saying.
That is understood, although the con-
struction of the Dent-Elk River road
would necessitate heavier expendi-
ture than any need in either of the
other districts, and this paper knows
of no objection to the Elk River road
AS matter Of justice the Elk
River end of the county should be
given special consideration because it
has so far been neglected, although
contributing large part of the taxes
each year.
Wisdom would dictate spirit of
fairness, and if we are wise citizens,
Interested in the development of the
county, we will make reasonable
effort to reach an understanding and
then vote fo- good roads.
Keep in mind the fact that an en-
Urgency exists, and that the board is
trying to solve the problem for the
best interests Of the people.

: Labor gets the larger part of money

practically all of this money spent on
