There Is no question that the feeling for good roads la Increasing, and with it a will ingness to pay for them whenever a com munity is assured that by paying for theni they will get tliem. What they fear is that they will pay for them and not get them. In our opinion there is dsnger of going too fast in this direction, although w do not know that any of our counties have yet reached the danger point In soma coun ties there Is a strong sentiment in favor of issuing bonds for road purposes, partly, no doubt, on the part of the farmers, be cause thereby incorporated towns and cities can be made to help pay for them. The residents of towns are themselves often not verse to doing this for the sake of increase- trade and lower prices for local produce In muddy weather. There is no answer to the claim that there is justice and economy in road-building by bonds, if it is assumed that the money will be properly expended. It distributes the burden of original cost over many years; the saving in each year will be far greater than the interest; there is a possibility of economy in promptly carrying work onca begun to completion, and improvements can be made which would be hardly possi ble U paid for in full from the taxes of a year or two. There are two dangers in connection with building roads from the proceeds of bonds, and bonds should never be voted until these dangers are considered and carefully weighed. The first is that the possession of ready money, to be repaid in the distant future, may lead to building more expensive roads than the traffic upon them justifies. If the traffic over a mile of road amounts to 500 tons day, npon which saving of 10 cents a ton could be made by improving the road a condition which is quite possi ble in many places it would pay to create n interest charge of $50 per day forever, rather than not to have the improvement. It would, of course, not be just to a road district to create any snch charge, as the majority of the benefit would almost cer tainly be derived by non-residents oT the districts, whs would iot pay anything toward the cost. In levying road taxes tbe pecuniary benefit directly accruing to those who pay them should have first considera tion. Of course, that is by no means tbe sole consideration, for we must pay on the roads for which we are taxed our share of the cost of all roads which wa travel, and, to a certain extent, the rich, so far as we can find their property, must bear a part of tha burden of those less fortunate; and there is a certain pride in good roads aside from their utility which communities which can afford it will Often be willing to pay for. But poor folks cannot afford to buy luxu ries, much leas to run in debt for them. There is a possibility of building even better roads than a community can afford, very likely to the neglect of other roads, which should be improved, but are not, and no bonds should ever be voted for road pur pases without settling in advance just wher and how the money is to be expended, so that those who vote npon the tax may judge whether tbe improvement can be afforded. At tbe meeting to consider the creamery proposition held in this city last Saturday no definite action was taken. The facts in the case are that the allotted time to tbe committee to ascertain data was too short to allow of a thorough canvas being made in regard to tbe matter. An enterprise of the importance of a creamery is sufficiently vital to merit long and earnest considera tion. Such a proposition cannot be satis factorily consummatated in a day or two, and if it required half a year's time it would only show that the work were ail tbe belter ' done. It was not anticipated that a cream ery could be secured in a week's time, bnt that if we SBcceeded in securing one daring the present year we would nave been doing very well. Cooperative creamery proposi tions are not as satisfactory as those oper ated by private individuals, and in the ad vocacy of the matter by Thx Mist it was hoped to lay the matter before the people in a sense that they might see the benefits of it in the way of creating a market for their product and thus build up and stimo. late the dairying business. Ail reasonable thinking people agree that to offer induce ments, of course, is the first requisite, and a creamery is the objective and all import ant of inducements. The Hist also hoped that some practical creamery man could be Induced to come forward and engage inde pendently in the creamery business in this city, because we believe the proposition is all that is claimed for it, and with the moral support of the community behind the en terprise the promoter could succeed ad ably. The figures of Mr. MxsAdam dem onstrated clearly to ns that a creamery would be a paying industry here. W be lieve no business could be embarked in in this vicinity, where the same amount of capital is invested, that would yield such a profit to the operator as a creamery, and if someone wilj come to this city and start the business in a fair, business-like manner it can be made to win. The same resources remain, and our effort shall be to inspire confidence and interest in the creamery business m our community. Tuesday's election in Seattle tells which way the tide is turning. That city elected a republican mayor by 700 majority on that day. In November, 1896, King county gave Bryan 1100 majority. Seattle is in that county, and bears about tbe same relation ship to county politics as does Portland to Multnomah county. The result of the elec tion shows a gain of about 1800. Whii-i preparations for war are being vigorously prosecuted by onr government, we believe the worst is over and war will not be resorted to. Spain evidently was out on a little bluff, and since it'is clearly evident that sentiment in other coun tries is strongly in favor of the United (lutes, lier war spirit is growing beautifully less. Certainly our government would be justified in resorting to extrena measures, but President McKinley and bis cabinet are coolly and deliberately considering tha cir cumstances, and when necessary our na tion can be depended upon to do its full duty in the premises.
