The Sanyo road is said to be
open again ta travel, after a
closed period of near a, year?
This Makes, the second year of
work upon the read and still they
are not in sight of the finish yet
The road-is in a deplorable con
dition, where there- is m paving,.
and large trucks have much
fjtrouble t pull through the gravel
jandinuck. '
i This condition of afEaira in our
jjsister county shows mighty poor
management on somebody's part,
tor else-politics ace- the promoters
of public enterprise. Two years
is long enough, to make a good
start on wse t;oiutnbia river
highway; but a similar period
finds the short canyon road in
almost an impassable condition.
The effect upon this country
west of the hills is readily felt,
tor it cuts us om from the city
and leaves -v stranded without
proper access to-the1 metropolis.
A little pressure brought to bear
on the right spot might serve to
remedy the matter,
Do- you notice how the little
voices of the state press are
chorusing against the official tax
publication t It might be differ

the self satisfied look upon the
faces of our Washington county
legislative members as they

HiUsbore friends.. Eaeh wears
the smile that speaks of work
well done and a purpose accom
plished, and each has certainly
put his face on the map in this
part of the county; They re
mind one a good deaf of that old
story or the trapper who was
'driven into the embrace of the
first handy tree by a large bear,
After straddling the highest
limb for half a day his wife ap
peared1 and' put a dum dum
through the bear's head. When
he told1 the boys about it he is
