THE REDWOOD HIGHWAY Governor Pierce in his talk Friday at Riverside park to the grangers declared that in five years the Red wood highway to the coast would be paved. That will be fine—in five years. We all want it and wiil work for it, but the thing that interests the people of Grants Pass and all of southern Oregon, is why doesn’t the state help out a little at the present time in maintaining the, present highway. It has been allowed to get in such condition that tourists are being rerouted other ways. When finally the road became so bad that it was almost impassible, the county- the stage company operating be Redwood highway. A little help tween Kerby and the coast and the from the state would prove it. national forestry department com The stage company which is oper bined to take out some of the worst ating between Kerby and Crescent (pots. City this year is forced to pay $1560 The Redwood highway between to the state for insurance and Grants Pass and Crescent City is not license fees. It uses 26 miles of the a county road, it is not a private Oregon highway. Yet it also is 'road tor the stage company and it is forced to give work and money, uot solely a forest road. It is an amounting to $400 to maintaining interstate road and is classified as the road. It would appear that the a secondary highway in Oregon. Il state could afford to spend some of may soon be raised to a primary the $6,000.000, raised by the gaso highway class. Yet the state has line tax, on this state highway. not signified the least intention oi aiding in itB upkeep. This burden last year fell upon the same thre« agencies which are again cooperat ing on the road. The state should at least match the amounts put up by the people now engaged in keep ing up the highway. The road over Oregon mountain has been in terrible condition. It has been one succession of ruts, rocks and chuckholes. Tourists en taring the stale by this route havt been harsh in their criticism and many have been kept out. Southern Oregon people have refrained from making the trip to the coast as the) desire to do. A few thousand dollari spent on the road early this sum mer would have placed It in th« best possible condition but thii money could not be raised except, by the same method as last year " Matty LET’S HAVE THE EDITORS A golden opportunity for Grants Pass to get into the limelight is of fered by the fact that the state edi tors want to come to this city in 1925 for their annual summer ses sions.. This year they climbed Mt. Hood and that attraction will re- ceive columns of space in the news papers of the state. The next meet ing place will be on the coast but he editors suggested that the fol lowing one might well be held in Southern Oregon—at Grants Pass. Grants Pass is securing a large amount of advertising and publicity . hiough her conventions here. The publicity which would obtain from die editorial meeting here could not be matched by any other single event. A strong effort should be made to bring tne scribes here and to show them a good time.
