Inequality in Distribution of
County Road Fund Is
Brought Up.
At n meeting or the Port of Cons
Ray Commission this morning, tho
question of n fair distribution of
the county rood tax money wns
brought up. Tho question was
raised by citizens of Cooston, rep
resented by C. F. McKnlght, ask
ing for the improvement of Will
nueh Inlet. Mr. McKnlght wanted
to know how the application should
ho made and wns told.
However, Peter I.ogglo and C. R.
Peck, pointed out that tho county
court Bhoiild do ninro towards the
improvement of thu inlets lu this
section. Thoy pointed out thnt the
whole county Is taxed for the road
fund. Tho Coqulllo valley has a
lingo amount of dirt roads, whllo
the Coos Ray section has fow dirt
roads, using the waterways mostly.
In consequence, the county court
spent most of tho road money on
thu dirt roads lu thu Coqulllo val
ley and when petitions for Im
proving tho waterways on thu Coos
Ray sldo camo up, thoy were re
ferred to the Port of Coos Ray
Commission.
Thu opinion was expressed that
If tho Port Commission Is to havo
chargo of tho watorway Improve
ments, the county court should
turn over to Coos Day's sharo of
thu county road fund nud let them
