aftneka. .
The bond hill was not put through
the Icginlattire by the patented pav

legislature by aome members of the
legislature who believed that the
road legislation adopted up to this
point did n"t go far enough. Hcpre

writer of this letter ail united In In

the matter was too Important to pass
without the vote of the people and
the hill was snhmltted to the people

The hill ss submitted to the people
aas the free act of the majority ol
both houses of the legislature It
had the support of a number of peo
ple who had fought the paving trust
from the lime the legislature, started.
The purpose of the bill Is to en
able the slate or Oregon to connect
up the iM.pulou centers with good
roads at an early date The auto
mobile lioenss and the quarter mill
tax whti-h haa been on the statute
books for a nnmher of years, will
pay the Interest, on these bonds snd
retire the1 bonds and maintain the
roads. The best Informed authori

proposition to be true. The bond Is
