The fund has been too small. Jackson county is the southern door to Oregon. On the Sis kiyou ridge travelers pay toll to enter or leave the state. The tourist traffic seeks another route. Tourists passing through the valley have been known to become charmed by its beauties, and to purchase property and remain. Even now the county is re ceiving but a small percentage of the travel to which it is entit led The bond issue will p’ Qvide good roads and abolish the toll, It will brthg the tourist. The paved road will lower thé cost of transportation to mar ket. One team will do the work of two. Expense will be halv ed The bond issue alone makes the paved road possible. ovx — — T ------, ---------------- ‘ The building of the road will c distribute *500’^ mnn_ O«r own Deopie.

Here is certainly no cause fired ning at Carson station, on the United for alarm. The cost of building is equally distributed over a long term of vears. The people who come after will share in the expense. Yet the present will enjoy good roads, and the futurejalso. The future, enhanced in value by this improvement, is taxed for re payment. The present plan is not for the sole benefit of the cities. Good roads must have a beginning. The main line must be built first The entire district will benefit by the.first improve m int, and the system of improvement so commenced will spread P Jackson county has a population of 35,000. It could sustain ten times that number. Public improvements bring increased population. Good roads will bring the outside investor. The bonding system is the only practical system of road con struction It is admittedly the means of securing that which we w ant- road improvement that cannot be procured in any other WaY Two years ago by a two-to-one vote, the county carried a $1 500 000 bond issue for highway construction. The supreme court held the issue invalid, and the day of progress was post- nnned If the $1,500,000 issue was a good thing two years ago, have our needs grown or lessened? The $500,000 issue, we are given assurance, will practically all be left in Jackson county. To this must be added the offer ing of state aid. Industry will be encouraged and investrpent invited Fifty miles of excellent highway will speak volumes for the enterprise of the county. The era of good roads will be re a l-n o t dreamed. If $1,500,000 was alright two years ago, why ballcat^one third the sum now? To School Children. Jaikson County, Ore.
