TOO MUCH ROAD BUILDING

We drove over a ten mile stretch
of highway the other day that had
just been rebuilt. Two years ago we
drove over the same piece of road and
it had just been rebuilt. Two years
ago and the other day we had to run
the flivver along one side of the grade
and hold the wheels in the beaten
track by main force and akwardness.
There was only one track, and when
we met another car we had to run
over into the soft dirt that Lad been
brought up from the bitches at the
side of the road by the builders. This
road had not been maintained for two
years that we know of, and so had to
be rebuilt. No thought was given to
those who had to drive over this place
of highway, for if there had been any
thought of their comfort it would
seem reasonable that the county or
townships would have dragged the
road and made the center of it pass
able. We do not have the cost of re-
Emmons County record. [volume] (Williamsport, D.T. [i.e. N.D.]) 1884-current, 1921-10-06

building this road every two years
but it is certain that it costs more to
rebuild highway than to maintain
it by dragging it after each rain, so
that whoever is responsible for this
years work on this particular piece
of highway is spending the peoples
money foolishly, yea, even criminally.
1t is small wonder that the townships
and counties have spent $35 900 900 in
the past ten years for road work when
such methods are pursued. 1t is high
time that the people arose in their
might and changed the system of
building highways in North Dakota.
The Taxpayers have the right to de-
mand that their money shall not be
wasted, and it is surely wasted when
the roads have to be rebuilt every two
years on account of lack of mainten-
ance. The North Dakota Good Roads
Association stands for properly built
highways with adequate maintenance
at all times. We know this will cut
down the cost, and consequently the
taxes to our people. Let us get to-
gether on this proposition and work
for modern methods in the matter of
building and maintaining our high
ways.-N. D. Good Roads Magazine.

will show at least as large a ma
jority for Nestos as it did for O'Con-
nor, majority of LOG votes. 1t
would even be safe bet that the ma
jority will be materially increased.
In talking with people from other
parts of the state, we find that the
greatest gain for the INDEPENDENTS
will come from the northern part of
North Dakota, where good crops are
getting people on their feet again and
where they no longer harbor the same
bitterness of spirit that they did when
they were having trouble to even buy
enough to eat.
Nestos himself has proven strong
vote-getter in the state. In 1916, he
ran single-handed against McCumber
and Hanna for U IS. senator. Nc
Cumber had the backing of the Nc
Kenzie organization, and of the league
bosses. Hanna had the state ma
chine, he being governor at the time,
his appointees being scattered all
over the state. Nestcs had himself,
and, at that time, he beat Hanna in
the state and carried number of
counties against both Hanna and Nc
Cumber.

AGE IN NORTH DAKOTA

Washington, D. C.-According to
the census of 1920, 1873 per cent, al
most two-ffths of the people in the
state of North Dakota, are either in
fants or children under fifteen years
of age; 9.5 per cent are young people
Is to 10 years old; 36.6 per cent,
slightly over one-third, are men and
women in the prime Of life, being from
20 to AZ years old; while 1853 per cent
being As years of age and over, are
well along in middle life if they have
not reached old age.
The urban population as compared
with the rural shows some rather
striking differences in age, the per-
centage 20 to AZ years of age being
42.3 for the urban population as COM
pared with 34.5 for the rural, while
the percentage under Is years of age
is 3O.5 in the urban population as
against 4O.2 in the rural. These diff
erences may indicate larger families
Of children in the country than in the
city but more probably indicate the
fact that country children as they
grow up have a tendency to migrate
to the cities thereby increasing the
active adult population of the cities
at the expense of the rural districts.
Practically one-half of the popu-
lation, 400 per cent, are old, enough
to vote, being Fl or over; and in this
class the men outnumber the women
in the ratio of 1873 to 100. The males
of military age, 10 to a., constitute

with indications of a bitter fight to
come over the more important provi.
sions of the measure reported by the

that sweeping and radical amend.

the manufacturers sales tax would &C.
scept those amendments, serious con.
csideration would be given to such a
sales tax as part of the Democratic
scheme provided such lew should
prove necessary to raise the needed
revenue.
y Objections to specific sections of
the bill came from the Republican, as
we'll as the Democratic side of the
chamber. Senator Lenroot of Wis.

agreement to accept uncontested COM
mittee amendments to the original
House measure. the Senate made con-
siderable progress on proposed
changes to some of the administrative
features. None Of the levy pro 'isions
was passed on, however, objection be.
ing made in each case.
In offering objections to some
phases of the bill, Senator Simmons
