In view of t li In hodge-podge slate of affairs wo believe It would bi wise and expedient to bond the county for a sum requisite for i'.;e concentration of all plans and the direct and consecutive building of Hiich a net-work of roads as hIimII really servo every end of commerce and tralllc ns tie same Hhall apply to the great and small communities In Hie county nud con tiguous thereto. h the only way In which we will ever get the bene llts sought and wo might us well 0 the work In wholesale fashion n ui Hciiuer ii inrougii tne years nnd over a lot of widely separated territories with Intervening barriers of unimproved trails and no-roads-nt-ull. Coos County has spent enough money In the last live years to navo n much bettor system than now ex ists. The State Engineering De partment should bo consulted In tho more comprehensive pinn now contemplated. They could quickly nnd enslly prescribe tho character of tho work to bo dime and ills tnniH's and directions to bo followed, donning the trunk roads umi laterals ' In such fashion as shall best serve the exact local Interests and at the snine time fully conserve the larger Interests of state nud nation, all of which nro logically Interwoven In any such program of development. We might Just as well spend half n million of money us It shall ho needed for tho perfection of a1 olld, understandable nud compon-' tlng highway establishment, as' to keep on sinking n hundred and' forty thousand dollars annually in1 incomplete, badly spr.eed and In-' effective roads and thus economize! In a department, where to date, economy has beeu tho last and, least consideration. Tho fact that thu bonding proposition has tho weight of state sanction and super- tbe now appraisers will be named.
