WILL VOTE ROAD BONDS
Clearwater Highway District on
River Win Hold Election June 9

F. w. Clark, a member of the
Clearwater highway district of
Harpster was in the city Thurs
day on his way home. He went
to Moscow to meet with J. w.
Hall, commissioner of public
works and Major Olson, director
Of highways, and was advised
that the Clearwater highway
district would be designated
along the east side of the South
Fork of the Clearwater between
the North and South boundary
line.
That before the state would
be able to recognize this project
and ask for federal aid it would
be necessary for that district to
vote the bonds as this is one of
the most essential things in re-
ceiving recognition from the
government. The road program
in the Clearwater section will
prove to be one of the greatest
development movements Of that
section will be an unprecendent
activity in the farming district,
and will also materially stimu-
late, mining activities in the
section. This link of road is
considered by many of that Sec
ton to be the key wedge to the
opening up of the greatest UNI
developed sections of Central
Idaho.
The government according to
Mr.. Clark, has designated the
postal route from Sites to
ELK City, and that district
will undoubtedly receive it's pro-
portion of the cooperative fund
and may mean that the Clear
water district will be able to
receive aid and actual construc-
ton begun before the first OF
the year. Mr.. Hall and Mr..
Olson gave Mr.. Clark every as
surance as soon as the bond was
voted that their departments
would push every detail to as
successful end as soon as pos
sible.

of the vehicle. These may be adjusted
to suit the loads by means of a new
invention of French origin. At each
end of the rear springs is an elongated
slot, in which the eyebolts can be
moved by lever or wheel at the driv-

position Of the bolts is to lengthen or.
shorten the springs, thus decreasing or.
increasing their stiffness and resist

Law Always Governs.

Everything out of doors Is a matter
of law. That is, all actions of all
created things are in conformity to the
laws laid down by nature. Growth
and development are not by chance ;
they are matters Of law. The robin re-
turns to a certain region, not as mat
ter of accident or chance, but because
1t is governed absolutely by law-just
as the drop of water flows down the
steep sides of the roof according to
law.
Every action of every created thing
affects the actions of all other Gre
ated things. All nature is interviewer
until nothing can do anything with
out its having its effect upon every
thing else. That may seem like a
strange statement, but 1t is a fact.
