La Grande, Feb. 27 (Special) (To the Editor) I note with much Inter net and satisfaction the report of the meeting of auto men In the valued pa per of a few days ago relative to good loads and desire to agree with them generally. As to do away with our present system of supervisors and substituting a one-man system, I am not ready to agree hut will agree to a system of appointing road supervis ors for their qualifications alone, then have a county man who is skilled In the science of roadmaklng to direct, g00(j drainage the work. We now have a man at u. A. C. who Is a scientific road builder, who is directing the work of road building at the collegtT where" our young men or older ones either may get the necessary knowledge and preparation for Biich work, both In hard surface and dirt roads. A road man so equipped and work- crew of road supervisor will suvely I bring the desired results. The subject of road building is one to be discussed from all of its various standpoint., The auto has. come, to stay and I wish everyone who has to travel our roads could be able to use one, but the road that is used by the auto owners must also be used by the lady who. drives to marKet wuu. iw produce and for her pleasure and U as much or more entitled to consider- j ation as the one who drives the car. So let us keep all Interests in view In this discussion. I am pleased with Mr. Kiddle's proposition but do not oxactly agree with his wa yof raising funds. The piece of road between La Grande and Island City is as neces sary for the man who lives at Sum- mervllle or anywhere else and wantd to haul to La Grande as the man from Island In proportion to the amount of hauling he does I think where a. road Is to be Improved that the ones using the road should do half the work, and the county the other half, but make It under the supervision of competent road engineer. ' Grades should be made snTclent for and no more there WEST should be room enough on each side of the bard surfaced road for use In good weather. As to using convict labor on the roads, I agree with the governor, but am not In favor of working them. In! competition with common labor, r Each state, county or city should work their prisoners oh their - own ktcaae ing under the Instruction of Prof. Ay- roads, rather than keep them in con rri of the 0. A. C, with a competent flnement at the expense of the tax ' ' --'- payers and their own health. But rather pay a little more and use our own working men on the roads than bring convlctB from the penitentiary The dirt road Is surely entitled to much consideration make a good grade, well drained, let contracts to lowest bidder to keep It smooth and drained, then reguiule the loads haul ed over it in wet weather and you have done much toward solving the problem. , As to dividing the auto license with the counties, I am a member of the state grange legislative commute, ful ly ngreo with the Idea, and will do what I can to promote , It. . v C.
