Why Enid and Garfield Are For the
Road Bonds

and interest on the bonds sound and practicable and
will function without dsorganra,ion TO the finances Of
the state and withou, becoming burdenscme upon the
people OF the state.
SEVENTIi-That we believe the mileage provided for
in the bill will be constructed and that the average cost
need not exceed Sl5OO per mile-the average in some
parts OF the state, OF course, being higher and in other
parts lower, dependent upon material and local condi-
tonsand OF this, certain that while every mile on
the map should be constructed, the miles never can be
and never will be constructed upon any plan other than
statewide plan as proposed in the bill submitted and we
believe the federal aid together with the principal Of the
bonds Will build every mile the map.
The greatest issue before the American people-af,er
the peace ,reaty-is good roads for did not the good
roads OF France save civilization and against this
bond issue IS vote against good roads
The opposition will say NO A vote asains, the bonds
is vote for our plan OF good roads
But their plan ohristened after the senator from Law
ton, and sponsored by Campbell RusselIs Cat" is Of
tered as superior plan TO that Offered BY the votes Of
every member Of the legislature present voting excepting
four, one OF whom, having voted mo- solely upon ac
count OF the route in his county and no, upon account OF
any provision in the plan
Surely bill which received almost unanimous y,ppor
among the representatives OF the people entitled to the
and never could meet with the approval OF those same
representatives OF the people
ElGHTH-We believe the construction Of ,hi, ,vs,,m
oi roads VIII give employment to vast number OF re-
turned and returning soldiers and thereby assmlae them
back into our economic life and being possessed of YGs
OF the material that will 60 into the construction of the
roads together with 1000 of the labor necessary to build
them We will, IT we vote the bonds, have the roads and
the money expended for their construction in the rockets
OF the people Of Oklahoma and how can we make mis-
take in voting for such consummaton so devouty 10 be
wshedS'
Selfish interests and political ambition, sometimes
lead men into the realm of speculation bu, this is hard
business proposition with u.s. and inasmucb as none of s
are candidates for office either potential or active bu,
have reached the age where we must soon begin IL we
ever expect to ride hard surfaced roads are therefore
for the bonds and hope to ride and paw as we ride and
allow others that are to after TO begin paying where
we leave off.
