UiŒGON TO-HAVE
(¡ODD ROADS
LOCAI. NOTES !
As a result of the recent election
voting Josephine county dry Grants
Pass is unable to pave the streets.
1 he Courier has this to say: •*** “Again
it is lamentable because the streets
outlined in the improvement ordinance
needed paving, and twice the amount
of money spent in any other city im
provement cpuld not have resulted in
a more lasting improvement for the
city of Grants Pass, no investment
could have more thoroughly’ impressed
the stranger or casual visitor, nor have
been a greater inducement to the
prospective investor to locate in this
city.” **** From this it would appear
that the people of Gran’s Pass want
pavement, but the council did not feel
that the city could afford to issue bond
for the purpose.
Grants Pass formerly received about
$6,000 annually in liquor licenses, this
sum would probably defray the city’s
running expenses, and a bond issue fur
public improvements would have been
a matter of minor consideration. How
ever, if there is any chance to reason
ably meet the bond issue the council
should pave. It would help Jackson
ville to a certain extent, as well as
other Southern Oregon towns.

“Good Roads” seems tohave become
in recent months the subject of almost
every conversation when a group of
citizens get together. During the last
two weeks there has been more dis
cussion of good roads among members
of the Portland Commercial Club than
there has about the great political cam
paign that is before us. When dairy
men get together they discuss good
roads; it is the same v ith fruit grow
ers, while automobile owners have be
come veritable cranks on the subject.
An insistent demand, coming from
every section of the state, has been
made upon the Portland Commercial
Club to call some character of repres
entative meeting to discuss a practical
plan whereby all Oregon may have
better highways. President W. K. Ne
well, of the State Board of Horticul
ture, has written to the Club asking
that action be taken without delay;
A similar request also comes from Hon.
J. W. Bailey State Dairy and Food
Commissoner, on behalf of the dairy
interests, and the bankers of Portland
and other cities and towns of the state
are of one mind on the subject. Many
