Added' Interest in the passage of the "four per cent bonding amend ment" at the coming primary elec tion is given the people of Des chutes county by the action of the state highway commission at its meeting last week in providing for surfacing the section of The Dalles California highway between Bend and the Jefferson county line. The reason is the little proviso atta 'hod to the order for the work that it ' shall be done as soon as the fujds are available. If the bonding amendment carries funds will be available; if it fails there will be none. This is the sim ple, selfish reason why we are ail interested in seeing the amendment carry. And not only will lands be available for surfacing this section of The Dalles-Californja line but further cooperation may be expected from the commission on our other main highway work. The thing has been said alreniy so many times that it seems unnec essary to repeat it but there may Etill be some who have not had the fact sink in and so we say again that to vote tbia amendment means no added taxes. Revenues from .auto license fees and other state in come already provided for will more than pay interest on these bonds as well as retire the principal at ma turity. To vote the amendment means that the money can be spent for good roads now including ou own through highways. Let's make the majority a big one Changing Styles. Last year I bought a limousine, the latest thing in boats, and it was painted black and green, and cost me many groats. "It is the very latest word in ears," the agent cried, "all other cars will look absurd; this noble bus beside. The pride of owner ship 'twill gjve, and fill your soul with bliss, and it will last you while you live, I wot and ween and wis." And now my tumbril's out of style, it looks like Noah's ark, and when I'd push her for a mile I go out after dark. . For if I take it out by day, by jokers it's abused ; they ask me if it is the dray the Pilgrim Fathers used. My wife declares she'd rather walk, and proper pride maintain, than ride with me around a block in that ancestral wain. And thus the motor game is played upon the trust ful chump, whose last year's model looks decayed and ready for the dump. My van is just as fine as silk, so far as chugging goes; but people of the critic ilk turn up the scornful nose ; its hood is badly out of date, the windshield slant is vile, the body lines, which should be straight, bulge out in ancient style. And so I'll have to buy a gig that's up to date and new; and in six months, I'll bet a fig, 'twill be a has-been, too. county clerk of llcBi'liulon county on tho i'iiiiilillciiii ticket ut 111 ti pi-1-niai'lcK on May 81, lit JO.

FAVORS GRAVEL O.N ROADS Editor Bend Bulletin:' As we are about to start on our new era of road building, I think a little friendly criticism will not be amiss. A few years ago someone made the discovery that the cinders from Pilot butte was a good material to build roads with, and that there was enough of them to surface all the roads In Oregon, and have quite a lot left. On account of the low cost of handling them, they were used quite extensively, but they proved too soft for a permanent road. Now almost everyone that has anything to say about roads is advocating gravel. Gravel is all right, but right there is where we have got to be careful, or we will make as big a mistake as we did with cinders, only is will cost ug a lot more to find it out. Gravel is a standard material for roads, but it has to be of a uniform size to get good results, and the only up-to-date way to prepare It Is , to run it through a crusher and . screen it to the proper size. If rock or gravel of uneven sizes Is used In surfacing roads the large ones will work to the top In a very short titne and will not give a smooth, even wearing surface. It seems to' be the Intention to use the gravel from the Shevlin-Hixon pit to surface the road from Bend to the fish hatchery. A. close exami nation will show that after the coarse rock is screened out that over half of the balance Is fine Fund and pumice. Sand has no place In road construction, unless it is mixed with cement. There is plenty of the best, kjnd of gravel in almost all parts o f, , the county, Imt I have seen but very little of It In its natural state that is fit for road building. ';. If we are going, to Iniild goad roads, let us use stand ard materials and prepare and use them according to standard specifi cations. A. H. HORN. A three days celebration may be held in Bend extending over the 3rd. 4th. and 5th of July, the occasion for such an observance being a naseDail tournament in which all the leading clubs of Crook county wll take part. Engineers have this week staked out the streets and lots of tho t.wn site of Redmond, and tho two prin cipal streets are being cleared. The new townsite Is located about four miles east of Cline falls. The election to determine whether this school district shall issue bonds for a new school house, will probably be held on the last day ot May. The petition for submis sion of the question asks authority to issue bonds to the amount of $3500. The Bulletin has information in dicating that active construction of the Columbia Southern railroad to ward Bend will probably be com menced within 60 days. Definite official announcement will probably be made within two weeks. Sam S. Reynolds has sold his bar ber shop to Triplett Bros., who will conduct both Bbops hereafter. C. B. Allen and wife, of Lava, were in town Sunday and Monday having dental work done. M. S. Mayfield and family left this morning for their new ranch above Prinevllle, where tbey expect to make their future borne. At the homestead of William P.
