Many Plans Made To
Keep Highways Open

Belview was also called upon, and as
sured the meeting that the 1929 leg
islature would, without doubt, respond
to the wishes of the people, in case
they would make them known at that
time.
j. E. Reynolds of Mankato made
the chief address of the evening, and
spoke at length in favor of a bond
issue and paving. He based his argu-
ments on the saving in the mainten-
ance charges on graveled roads and
also in the saving of expenses in the
auto and truck traffic that would d.
rectly accrue to the benefit of the u.s.
ers of the highways. He pointed out
that the bonds would be taken care OF
by sinking fund set aside from the
general revenues out of auto licenses
and gas taxes, into which sinking
fund could go to the savings of main
tenance charges effected as the paw
ing program was being extended.
He deplored the fact that south.
ern, Minnesota had not paved more
through the counties and then have
the state take up these county bonds
as has been done in some parts of the
northern section. In this connection
he urged the pavement of Main Street
in Walnut Grove, with the assurance
of reimbursement from the State
Highway Department, to which he
acribed high degree of efficiency
Mr.. Reynolds talk was well receiv.
ed and a resolution was adopted with.
out a dissenting vote in favor of g
$2O,OOO,OOO bond issue to be authoriz
ed by the next legislature, and urging
the paving of No. Z. 1t was evident
from expressions all around that the
sentiment in favor of bonding ant
paving has been increased by the BAG
roads last spring.
An expression was also taken or
the sentiment of those present in re-
gard to increasing the gas tax 1c pei
gallon, and although not an exact
count of raised hands was made, il
appeared that there was practically
a tie on the question.
The secretary of the Highway No
Association, Mr.. Brown of Waseca
arrived late and addressed the assem-
bly,. He said in effect that the ques
ton of the paving of No. Z was es.
sentially a question of funds, anC
that thus the paving of the road with
in the not far distant can reasonably
be hoped for.-Walnut Grove Trib

Twice today Remus arose in his best
court room manner, which had begun
ito build him reputation for capabil-

conferred with Charles Elston, his as

! Virtually at the outset he read a
long motion in a sonorolis, resounding,
clearly phrased voice which brought
into the murder trial nearly every
