The White Bird Highway Commits
sioners held three meeting during the
past several days considering the ques-
tion of voting bonds. Saturdays meet
ing was open to farmers OF the district
70 determine their wishes regarding the
extra $4,000 for bridges and laterals.
The major portion Of this Is expected
to be used In assisting In building the
bridge across Salmon river The farm
ers complained that there was need for
money In repairing the lateral roads
and local bridges within the district,
especially since the recent flood which
left White Bird creek with but one
bridge and that badly crippled. After
very free expression OF opinion every
body felt better and the farmers were
assured that their needs would be con-
sidered to the extent that repairs
would be made so that 1t wouldn't be
long till they could be bringing their
eggs and Strawberries to town by other
means that jack mule. Sometimes 1t
pays to kick, then people begin TO real
ize that you are alive and your inter-
ests win be considered; the dead ones
don't get much, but boquets. Roads
are what we want. While the commits
sioners decided to separate the bond
issue into two selarate elections on the
same day, June Goth, still they are con-
fident that both will carry. The first
for $4,000 to be applied on the state
highway. and the second. for $4,000 to
be used ON bridges and laterals. There
was a strong feeling that the $4,000
should be increased to $4,000 In order
to have more money for laterals. Fig
ures, however, showed that this would

II you have ever visited the Globe
Printing Co.'S establishment and had
q talk with Manager Smith you Will
cease TO wonder at the excellency Of
the paper. 1t could not be otherwise
You will begin to wonder how 1t II
possible to sell the paper at $50 pei
year land wonder 1t is---but Ii you
desire 10 maintain the wonder pay uT
all back dues OF any kind--the CORE
spondent at White bird Is authorized
to receive money due the Globe. See
him at your earliest convenience.
1t was very telling cartoon we saw
In q paper the other day. A conscript
ed soldier pointing to a dollar witt
arms and legs, asked the pertinent
question: why don't you try con
scription on himy' We asked ourselves
the question: ssWhy does not Uncle
Sam use transcription on the clergy and
on the nurses for the religious and the
hospital work Of the army? Why leave
even part Of that important work Il
depend on volunteer help? We arr
asking for information as well az look
ing for consistency. We are in for win
ming this war, and are OF the unpopular
opinion that there ought to be certain
ty about 1t, from start TO finish. Con
script the whole thing--men, money
commodities that would be democracy
and when the war Is 0yer--may It b,
soon--the idea viii prevail among ricl
and poor alike that each did his duty
No more can be done. No less ought b
be done
