The Plevna Road

Under date of July 18th The
Baker Sentinel makes the accusa-
ton:
Some roads are being built
ostensibly for the benefit Of one
or two portions of the county to
the detriment of others. We re-
fer specifically to new road that
has just been ordered to run d.
rectly south from Plevna."
In this statement The Sentinel
reflects the selfish fight that
Baker is making to protect her
own interests regardless Of the
legitimate claims Of other COM
munities in the county. The "one
or two portions Of the county,
referred to in the quoted para
graph above is the vast farming
and ranching district tributary to
Ekalaka that for the past seven
years has been making Baker it's
shipping point and that has been
the backbone of Bakers growth
and prosperity. TO the detri-
ment Of others'- the others in
this case being Baker.
The long and short Of it is that
Baker business men are very
much afraid they have killed the
goose that laid the golden eggs,
and that with a good, serviceable
road from Ekalaka to P|evna the
increasing south trade will be d.
verified to Plevna and they are
combating the construction of
such a road with all means with
in their command. Before the
county seat contest was decided
there was considerable sub rosa
pressure brought to bear against
the proposition but now that Bak-
er has the county seat Of govern
ment cinched they are more open
in their attack.
But let us consider the actual
practicabilitv of such a road.
The highway is laid out about
nine-tenths of the way along Sec
ton lines and such a road, once
constructed, would admit of little
change as the country becomes
settled up along the right-of-way.
Once established it would be per-
manent. There are fewer grades
than on the Ekalaka-B Baker road.
The Plevna road will be five
miles shorter than the present
road to the railroad from Eka
laka. All these things considered
would mean a considerable saving
of time and horse power to the
many freighters and farmers who
haul loads from the railroad.
From Plevna south as far as
Spring creek (about Is miles
north of Ekalaka) the road has
already been graded and is being
travelled. Residents along the
right-of-Way, regardless of any
Baker or Ekalaka allegiance, will
tell the Sentinel man that the
road thus far constructed was not
"a violent expenditure of county
road money for a purpose equiv
alent to throwing it away" as the
B. S. would have them believe,
but that they now have a straight
north and south road giving them
an outlet to their nearest mark
cts, d condition that did not ex-
list before.
In the closing paragraph The
Sentinel's editorial says:
But the throwing away of a
thousand dollars a mile upon a
useless road is little less than a
crime upon the finances OF the
county,"
Where do we get that thousand
dollars a mile stuff?
We will gamble a new hat a.
gainst a nonpareil quad that the
road as far as constructed has
not cost the county a tenth of

government tax ON spirits was increased
from 20 cents to s1.iO Collections on
that day were $4,000.
Total collections OF this office for the
fiscal year. which ended Wednesday.

Although the number OF persons pay

tically the same as last year. the amount
paid in is almost double that Of the
preceding year. This due partly, says
Acting Collector North. to the fact that
in the first year Of the income tax's

to be figured in estimating a persons in

Approximately 3,2Oo persons pay income
tax through this office.

Receipts Of the office for the year have

All records of the local internal

This big collection was due to the
fact that there are more varieties of
