OFFICIAL COUNTY PAPER.
The Uw requiring the election of road
supervisors by the voter of the dUtrict
will nscessiute a radical change either
in voting precinct or in road districts.
The opinion ia freely expressed that too
many road diatricta already exist, and
more than likely the reaaonableiMM of
each an idea will assert itaelf qaite for
cibly apon many persona when the time
arrirea for counting the ballota nnlea
the number of diatricta ia diminished.
For instance, in Aoborn precinct there
are nine road districts, and there will
nndoabtedly be a candidate for super
visor nominated by each political party,
which woo Id add eighteen names to the
regular official ballot for that precinct.
This fact alone would prove cumbersome
and tiresome, and could only be reme
died by dividing the precinct into not
mora than two diatricta. In TTnlou pre
cinct there are a number of road dia
tricta, and the result would be the same
in ease the) number ia not decreased.
There are thirty-two road diatricta in
thia county, and we believe it ia just
bout two time too many. In the first
place the average amount of salary paid
to supervisors ia $50 each, some leas,
soma more, when, if the number of
supervisors were decreased to half as
many, each supervisor would then have
to hi credit about flOO, which would be
some inducement to put forth an effort.
Again, there are some diatricta within
the county which contain but ten or
twelve persona subject to road work. If
men diatricta were joined with some
other, better results would be had.
A revision of the road district matter
ia certain to be had by reason of a law
which passed the last legislature, and
While thia is going on an effort should be
made to adjust the, matter aa correctly
aa possible under the circumstances.
Of course, thia will prove s more or leaf
perplexing problem, and it cannot be
hoped to arrange everything absolutely
satisfactory at first, and to facilitate
matters those interested should have
no hesitation in offering aid in way of
suggestions.
These matter should be settled before
the first of the year. Registering voters
ia to begin at that time, and if in order
to properly arrange the road diatricta it
become necessary to create new polling
precincts, some inconvenience would
certainly arise. Perhaps some polling
precinct can be enlarged, others dimin
ished in territory and the number re
main aa it ia. A road district cannot
stand into two polling precinct, that
is certain, and the whole system, must,
of course, be revised.
carry Oregon nest yesr than there is tor ears too few to avcouituodat the over
him to carry Pennsylvania. Kentucky ' crowding traffic. There is not a single
h may "redeem," and possibly-tha
other border Southern States; but of
the states ha carried in 1890 ha will lose
Washington on this coast, and likely
Nebraska and several other Western
states.
It ia sincerely to be hoped that the
movement now on foot to unite the two
school districts of Houlton and St. He!
ana will meet with public favor and ap
proval. The action ia now in thr eui
bryo, but aa "great oaks from little
acorns grow," so may the effort prove
eminently successful. Tha school su
perintendent, of course, cannot set in
the premises until the proper petition is
presented to him, which ia now in the
course of preparation. The good to
the community to accrue by reason of
such move warranto the statement
that every qualified person -within the
two diatricta should favor the move and
forthwith append his or her signature,
Tha school Iscilitiea of either of the dia
tricta at present, we believe to be wholly
inadequate to demands, and if the pro
posal is accepted and the aim reached,
we will then be in a position to have
conducted school which will be
credit to us and our locality. On the
prominence midway between the two
towns can be selected a most suitable
site for a large and commodious school
structure, in a high, convenient, health
ful and quiet location. Let unity of
sentiment in this matter prevail to the
end that all will be equally benefitted.
Ths expression so common among a
certain class that tha people are becom
ing weary of tha methods of Mark
Hanca in "'pludering the country'
strikes tha absurd and comical rather
than the serious side of life. If Mark's
"plundering" continues to put hundreds
of thousands of people to work at good
wages, tha - country can stand a vast
mount of it. Hay be a slight refer
ence to tha manner in which the coun
try was plundered during the years
1893, 1894, 1896 and 1896. when it be
came necessary for the government to
issue gold-bearing bond to the amount
of 162,000,000 in order to defray the
expenses of government in a time of
profound peace, may serve aa a soothing
application to ths inflamed "brain mat
ter" of the perturbed individuals. With
the available cash balance in ths treas
ury at almost 1300,000,000, and increas
ing daily, and the gold reserve being
over $260,000,000, it certainly looks as
though tha country were being plun
dered. The people will accept the latter
methods of plundering the country with
gracious hearts. Indeed they will.
BRYAN'S CHANCES.
No new states have been admitted
since 1896, the number of electoral votes
nest year unless Arizona and New Mex
ico are let in, which is improbable, will
be ths same 467. McKinley had ninety
five votes more than Bryan, who, to win
nest year, must carry all the states he
did In 1896 and gain forty-eight betides.
Sanguine democrat figure that he will
receivs twelve of these from Kentucky,
three from Delaware, and "perhaps"
fourteen from Maryland and West Vir
ginia, Then they fall back on Indiana
for fifteen votes more, which leaves only
four to be obtained, and these, one
Eastern paper thinks, may be picked up
in Oregon.
These estimate are silly, even with-,
out such preposterous conjectures.
OUR FUTURE WEALTH.
That Columbia county has a magnifi
cent future before it is a statement that
needs no reassuring assurance. The
magnificent showing of her wonderful
natural resources which are almost daily
brought to our attention in one way or
another by the natural chain of circum
stances occasioned by the activity in
farming, dairying and lumbering indus
tries, means that an era of prosperity
has set in scarcely dreamed of by the
county's most enthusiastic friends and
supporters.
Wealth is all about us, and needs only
development. Solid men with capital
are directing their attention our way,
and quietly taking hold of the problems
in practical manner by building mile
after mils of logging railroad and lum
ber flumes, and starting the machinery
that will convert our wealthy forests
into ready cash, our farm lands into
genuine, good farms by the introduction
of modern and lucrative methods. All
this is not talk and bombast, but it is
intelligent work, bringing rich returns.
Very little is beard about all this be
cause prospects for future greatness and
the accumulation of wealth are the
thoughts uppermost in the minds of
those now interested in this great and
good cause.
AH thia mean that many more men
arc being given employment at good,
living wages, homea are consequently
being opened up, and the rate of devel
opment ia naturally rapidly on the in
crease. Business is being extended,
manufacturers will be induced in greater
numbers, and, of course, our agricult
ural resources developed to the highest
degree in order to supply the natural
increase of population with the neces
sary products of the soil. Agriculture
in this county baa undoubtedly made
great strides in the way of development
within the last few years, and is des
tined in the very near future to be
brought to such a scientific and profita
ble stage as will itaelf support and
maintain a large rural population.
. There seems at this time to be noth
ing that can prevent this country's on
ward march, with all the wealth of farm,
factory and timber combined to make
thousands of people independent, happy
and contented. People will naturally
come and settle among us ; those espec
ially, who are looking for profitable
employment and investment. Our peo
ple need only to be united and loyal to
each other, direct and untiring in their
efforts to get the right kind of people
here, and then treat tbem honestly, to
make tha busiest and most prosperous
section in the Northwest.
But let us offer this one brief, honest
admonition: Continual bewailing of bus
iness conditions, unwarranted charges
of commercial stagnation, depicting
poverty and starvation in our midst,
will never accomplish what each good
citizen naturally hopes to bring about.
The conditions exist which now warrant
ui to proclaim to the world that we are
doing business on a good, solid commer
cial basis, and we invite capital and in
dustries to our doors, that the era of pros
perous times now with us may be so
firmly anchored on so permanent a
foundation that reverses cannot dwarf
us. All this is now within the scope of
possibilities, and eminently certain of
promotion if proper business-like meth
ods are pursued. Inviting people to our
threshold and warning them not to
enter under penalty of certain financial
destruction, by crying poverty and de
pressed business conditions, even though
it were so, I unpardonable. First of
all, let us study that we may know our
duties and responsibilities, and let each
one be loyal, at least to his own house
hold. .

(Md.)Era,
ROAD LAWS.
It cornea to light that tha last legisla
ture adopted a measure calculated
affect the administration of road mat
ters in all the counties of the state. Al
though the new law doea not repeal any
of the laws already on the statute books,
that is, in so many word by a specific
repealing clause, it practically repeal
the others or part of them. The statu
tory provisions of this state for road
business appear to be somewhat mixed.
At the present time there are three road
laws upon the statute books. One pro
vides for the old system of road super
vision by road district supervisors ap
pointed by the county court, and each
one absolutely independent of every
other one.
Then the other law was enacted em
powering the county court to appoint
county superintendent over all the pub-
lie roads of the county, and to impose a
cash road tax for the maintenance of the
highways, in place of the toll of labor
with which it has formerly been the
custom under warrant of the statute to
permit the payment of the annual road
assessment.
Then, later still, at the last sesrion of
the legislature, a third law was enacted,
making these provisions:
The county court "must" divide the
county into districts, according to its
discretion, and at the general state) elec
tion of 1900, and anuually thereafter a
supervisor must be elected by tie voters
of each district. One provision of the
law I that no voting precinct may be
partly in one district and partly in an
other. Another provision of the law is
that when a candidate ia elected to the
position of road supervisor, and refuses
to serve in that capacity be ahall be
fined $25 by the justice court in bi dis
trict, the fine money going into the
funds for the maintenance of the roads
of that locality.
All these various laws leave matters
somewhat confused. The provisions for
the election of supervisors next year is
mandatory, but what is to be done be
tween now and the next general election
is question. In the meantime our
public roads are being neglected, and
the traveling public ia entering com
plaints continually of the unsatisfactory
condition of highways.
Dcfutt Sbsbutv Day, of Lane county,
has absconded with over (2000 tax
money, collected during the last two
months. He has probably bought a
phonograph and gone south. After he
ha recovered from the almost certain
attack of jungle fever, be will return to
Washington, buy a farm, go back to
Eugene, be tried and acquitted. That's
history repeating itself, isn't it? Day
undoubtedly kept close track of matters
in other parte of the state. Precedent
of that character is a bad thing to es
tablish, but then the "people in general
are satisfied with such proceedings."
Some "good," "honorable" sheriff will
steal an entire county some of these
days, take it to Africa and establish a
refuge home for the "poor" and "Ignorant."
W are undergoing an absolute re
incarnation of patriotism such aa has
imbued American citizenship in every
time of war. If today the edict should
go forth that American arms should rise
in power to conquer the known world,
there would a Napoleon spring up to
lead our forces in the Herculean struggle.
At this very hour the ties of borne are
not dearer than our patriotism and love
of country, and nothing tends to add
fuel to the flame more than the mouth
ing of carping demagogues, who by
their treasonable utterances, seek to
throttle patriotism and trail the star and
stripe in the mire of national disgrace.
Failures continue to decrease both in
number and in the amount of liabilities
involved in spite of the democratic de
nial that there is prosperity in the land
Last month was a record month in that
respect, beating the record of the past
seventeen years. When it comes to
failures, republican times make no pre
tense of competing with democratic.
In this state ths heat of politics will
be at it height next spring. By having
election in June, it ia made necessary
to go to the expense and annoyance of
two election during the year of a presi
dential campaign. We can learn of no
good reason why all elections should not
be held in the fall. There are only a
few state that deviate from the rule of
holding elections in November, and Ore
gon is unfortunately one of them.
