The time seems to be about ripe to secure a railway out Molalla way at this time. Fact Is that unless It Is secured at this time the opportunity to ever secure one may slip by. And i those who have studied the matter to! and considerable extent cannot but un-! ,i . , . . i derstand that to let a competing town or city get a railway line that should ; run Into your own means a disaster I Hint cannot be measured in dollars and cents. As said before, now may the oppor tune time; at least If yon get it now you do not need to have further wor ry, and the thing accomplished It is only a question of a few months till you are enjoying the good that such a road can do the business interests of the place. And now that the ball has been set Tn motion it Is up to the hustlers in the community to see that the proposition does not get cold till the road is running and bringing its j hundreds to the town dally. The people out Molalla way want easy access to Oregon City; and If you give it to them they will at once begin to come here oftener than now. All of which means more nionev spent in the citv and more profit for her busi- , , . , ness men. And these, same people want to ship their produce and fruit this way, and the older the city and county becomes the more anxious will they be once the way is made, to come and to continue to come. And the old er and more influential the new Fruit and Produce Union the more there will be to come this way and the larg er percentage of what is raised will want to come. Now is the time to build the road: now is when people are taking an in terest in matters and right now Is when the matter should be settled. And when it Is settled be sure it is settled as you wish it In the affirm ative. HAS MUCH OF MERIT.

Kdltor Kutet prise; I wish to give my views on the question of Inaugurat ing it more systematic plan for work- lug our public roads. I will state very briefly that 1 urn lu favor of a hotter system nnd grout or effloloiiov In the work upon our roads than lu the past, so that the taxpayer will gel more value for the vast amount of nubile money expended each voar. There Is no other country In the world where the population is more I heavily taxed than lu this State, nnd (the taxpayer Is beginning to wonder n.-ii in uoutg none won uis money. !"' m,w nl,v" '"""' ."r Irully f,0 different methods of ,,linriiv. l'll,'ll,' ""I"- fl"' l'v''''' supervisor ; ,K1S " ,",,"'"' 'f "Is own and proceeds " 'M'orltnent at the expense of the i public, regardless of the amount of i e ui n , I l ' payer should be systematically robbed through Incompetent road supei vlsoi s. Itoad work Is a science, and In order to gi't the best results ,a taxpayer Is entitled to the very best ability that the Court can employ to execute the work. If you should bulldn schoolouso a dwelling house or a bridge, yoib-pro x cure plans and spcclllcatlons for that work from some coui'-teut man skilled lu that lino of work and you see that tin structure Is built by sklll-'d workmen so as lo gel tho best results for the money expended, mid public road Improvements require the same amount of skill, but anybody, re- gaidloss ,f whether ho Is competent , . ... .. . , titu come 11110 uie i oumy umii nun PI-l"ted road supervisor nnd go '" m the public hlgl.ay In his 11 1 ..h I perluiciit In his own way, nnd at tl.e ,,,,,1 ,), t,ere Is nothing lie- eotnpllshed but an Increased tax roil. I am firmly of tho belief that In n large county like Clackamas whore vast sums of money nro expended each year upon our public hbtliw ays, that the taxpayer is entitled to have that work don under the supervision of n good, capable, honest and efficient roud master, so that the taxpayi r can begin to ro.iH.-o that ho Is getting ul least some value for the lax that he Is paying each year.
