The road from this place to Ients is one of the most extensively traveled thor oughfares in Clackamas cotintv, yet it ia practically an iiuiiu.trovtel road, and the outlook for its Improvement fet not cheering. It seems that although aimsiilershle work has been done on the Oregon City roads, our county court has never felt ilisp.ised to spiorlioii anything to th improvement ol the road which hen elits us lar more. Pre sumably, the cause of this neglect is the idea that our tanners may be forc.il lo mar ket their produce ill Oregim Cit. This is a, mistake srhich one lumiluir w ith the condi tions which coiilronl u would not make. Enough better prices are id for produce in Portland to amply repay our farmers for ' the three or four miles ilitlerence in dis tance, rlien again the Multnomah county muds are as well improred as money can make them to our cosntv line, giv tig us only four miles of had rood. If our count y court wish to ascertain the cause of the old cry for county division ami do justice to the farmers of this, one of the richest sections of the county, they will apply the money for road improvements where we Mishit applied, and not upon it road weseldoni use.
