County Clerk Miller is working a large forte of deputies Just now in getting ready for the special election on November 24 on which date the people of Clackamas county will vote on the question of issuing $1,700,000 for hard surfaced roads in this county. There are 81 preencts in the coun ty, each precinct requires two poll books,, tally sheets and much other material in the way of supplies. In the general elections the state fur nishes all these supplies but in the special elections the county must sup ply them and it is the duty of the county clerk to see that they are pro cured and ready to be sent by the sheriff to each precinct. On Thursday night Clerk Miller had seven deputies at work on the prep aration of the poll books and on Fri day night be increased his crew to ten. HiaHuiinmtaMflumiraim About the Bridge Next Monday Gackamas county will demonstrate 1 to the people of Oregon whether the farmers are going to continue to travel in the mud or whether they are go- I ing to indorse a proposal to issue bonds to the amount of $1,700,000 for the construction of 145 miles of pave- ment in nearly every section of the county. The plan before the voters for their approval or re- 1 jection was inspired by the progressive farmers them- selves, who have become tired of plodding over inferior I roads and of following a program that at best will - not give the county to exceed four or five miles of pavement each year. Oregon City and West Linn are not so directly inter- i ested in the construction of hard-surfaced roads into the I interior of the county, but they should not forget that I the bond issue sets aside $105,000 for the building of a modern bridge across the Willamette and connecting 1 these two cities. While the taxpayers of the twin towns 1 pay about one-sixth of the cost of the roads to be im- proved under the bond issue and receive on the bridge only one-seventeenth of the money appropriated, they p should look upon the proposal in a broad way and recog- nize the necessity of a new bridge and vote for the bonds solidly. 1 If the bonds ,fail to pass, Oregon City, West Linn Gladstone and surrounding towns will be compelled to establish a bridge district and issue bonds, as the bridge will have to be built. "r . The state highway commission I has agreed to pay $ 1 50,000 of the cost of a $300,000 bridge, which is not a local structure in any sense. If the voters of the cities primarily interested have . not awakened to the importance of good roads for the farm- Iers, they certainly must know that their votes are needed next Monday for he bridge. !imiumimmtaituiiiiniammimit JTT.
