GOOD ROADS PROCLAMATION
ISSUED BY GOVERNOR WEST
Goernor Weal ling Issued tho fol-
lowlng proclamation designating tho
week beginning not Sunday ns Oood
Itoads Week:
SAhtiM, Ore., Jan. 2. Oregon Is
on the evo of a groat awakening. Tho
morrow will bring tho Panama Canal,
nnd with It will come unbounded op
portunities with their attendant In
flux of population nnd consequent
commercial and Industrial growth,
ndvancement and prosperity,
Our Creator In tho beginning
moulded our slate with kindly hands.
Whott we think of her delightful cli
mate her hundreds of miles of
golden beach, her lofty mountains
nnd streams, crystal lakes nnd beauti
ful harbors, lior magnificent forests
and rolling prairies, fertile vnllcjs
nnd roaming herds, of her waving
strain and luscious fruits n land
dotted with prosperous cities and pro
ductive farms we must admit that
nature has fully performed her part.
The federal government too has
treated us fairly In tho way of ap
propriations for the development of
our waterways nnd even the rail
roads have awakened to tho reali
zation of our needs and their oppor
tunities nnd are checkerboarding tho
stnto with bands of steel.
In view of these things we nro
prompted to ask ourselves what
should wo do In the way of co-oper-ntlon
with these sovoral agencies for
the development of the state? It Is
true that wo have given good taws,
pood government and good schools
nnd many other desirable things to
those who have come within our
orders, but much of this good has
been nullified by some of the things
we have failed to do and chlof among
these Is our neglect lap the matter of
tho construction of good roads.
Without good roads there can be
no great development and no great
progress. What wo need most Is
more people mora people In tho
rural districts. And In order to at
tract people to the rural districts wo
must make rural life pleasant and
attractive. You cannot maroon a
new settler and his family on a farm
in an ocean of mud, no matter how
beautiful the spot, and expect to And
him happy and content. Ho domands
good roads leading to the church and
the schools and good roads leading to
the markets and ho Is going to locate
In that section where these advan
tages are to be found.
It Is not only our duty but It Is In
keeping with good business to build
good roads. Money spent for good
roads Is money well spent. When wo

JIM HILL, INVENTOR,

ST. PAUL. Minn When tho next
Iwme of Who's Who In. America
comes out, James J. Hill, besides be
ing called a railroad builder, rt eol
lector and a few other things, Is
likely to mo tacked to his name the
word "Inventor " Notleo was sent
out ftoin tho Washington patent of
fice to Mr. Hill that ho has been
granted a patent on a track level
niaohlne, tho first of the kind to be
used anywhere.
The Invention Is a four wheeled af
fair. It runs along the track and by
moans of a spirit level section men
nro able to tell where tho "bumps"
aro. This takes the placo of the old
hand level generally lu use, and
turves for economy and quicker re
IwrtB on the condition of the rails.
The machine has been In use on
the Great Northern for some time. It
has been declared uniformly success
ful by operating officials, ,-ud It was
decided that Mr. Hill get out a patent
on tho Invention
Mr, Hill has suggested many things
on which devices have been Invented
making for tho improvement of tho
road. .There is tho triangular tie In
Koneral use on tho Great Northern,
Northern Pacific and the Hurllngton,
which Is more economical and easier
to maintain than the rectangular
burt.

tpenk of spending scleral millions of
dollars In tho next few years In rond
construction tunny are staggered by
tho proposal and tho figures. They
apparently are not aware that tho
several counties In this stnto spent
oior ten million of dollars during tho
past six years for road work, much of
which was lost through lack of j li
tem nnd knowledge ns to scientific
road building.
Tho question of good roads has
boon fairly well discussed of late and
we have learned mora about road
building during the past few years
than wo ever know before, but wo
still have much to learn and still
hnie much to do before wo under
take on n largo scale the construc
tion of n Bystcm of hlghwnjs In this
sta .
We need first: the passage of
model good road laws. Second: a
competent man at the head of the
highway department. Third: funds
BUltlclont to carry on tho work.
These things will come only
through united effort, nnd united
effort will como only through a clear
understanding of the whole question
by tho whole people of this state.
Thla understanding will come only
through tho study by, nnd education
of, tho wholo people
Numerous btllls are about to bo
Initiated or presenter to tho legis
lature by the friends of good roads In
different parts of tho st.ne; ami,
Whereas. It Is most Ini.nrtnnt that
tho peoplo of Orego-i jIiouM give
deep and thoughtful attention to tho
consideration, study and discussion
pf these measures.
Now, therefore, I, OsVvnld West,
Governor of the State of Oregon, by
vlrtuo of tho power of authority In
mo vested, do hereby proclaim the
week beginning tho fourth day of
February, and ending tho tenth day
of February, ns OOOD UOADS

recommend to tho peoplo of this
state that during this period Hie
question or good roads legislation bo
given careful thought and study
through public and private discuss
ion and through tho columns of tho
press, In order that knowledge per
taining thereto may be 'increased,
public sentiment crystallzed and of
fvctlvo legislation secured.
In testimony hereof, I have here
unto set my hand and cnused the
Great Seal of tho state to bo affixed,
