Two years ago the state of Iowa
started to build gravel roads. With
very poor roads to start with and
almost no gravel roads at all she
finished during the first half Of
1918, 406 miles of 365-day roads.
During the next twelve months the
state plans to build 1000 miles
more. 1t is said that there are
enough automobiles in Iowa to move
the entire population Of the state,
each car taking a load of five peo-
pie. The large number of auto
mobiles is no doubt responsible for
the good roads enthusiasm. If this
be SO let US hope that the number
of automobiles in the state of Idaho
will be increased to degree that
will awaken the citizens to the prop

The general understanding is
that until after the war politics had
better be left alone. This however.
does not mean that the coming
county and state elections should be
ignored. There never has been a
time when it is more important to
see tnat good men are elected to
the various state and county offices,
than at the fast approaching cleo
tion. Officials who can give the
best service should be chosen and
that without regard to their politi-
cal affiliations. It is your duty as
good citizen to post yourself as to
the qualifications of a candidate
and vote for the best man, regard
less Of the fact that he may be a
democrat or a republican.
