Had thia measure twen introduced in the earlier days of the aeaaion. thus giving the members full time for thought and discussion it is doubtful if it would have pass ed At Irani it would have given the opfsiaition time to develop their reasons for opposition. But it is a Portland practice when she has a bill which she thinks might meet with op|H>sition. to introduce the measure just In the last days of the «enmon then with the big booster lobby which can always lie muster ed. carry the measure through with a whoop. This l»»ster bunch want just as little legislative discussion as poasibic on any scheme they may wish to propose for legislative action. Another feature of the proposed bonding measure and which many people may overlook, indicates that our Portland friends are pastmaster» in adroitness Notice that all of the roads proposed for hard surfac ing are tributary to that city and are selected to pass through the most populous sections of the stale. The w-cret purpose no doubt is to favorably interest these sections in support of the measure and will probably result in its adoption. Another feature ia that these selected roads nearly all parallel railroads and are not necessary for the business interests of the state. Furthermore such improved roads are counter to the interests of the railroads, our mnin businrM artertea. Now, many sections of Oregon arc yet undevelo|a>d. except in a oro- tunctory measure. If we make the earning power of the railroads we now have of but «mall profit, it is not encouraging to th«* budding of the much vet needed trunk and branch lines Thus the territory not now being served with conven ient railroad facilities, are asked to support a scheme which will prob ably prevent the development of their particular localities. l*cause of the prevention or delay of rail road development. The Tribune ia not opposed to the development of our public highw ays. Indeed it has always be» n an advo cate of good roads providing such development can lie made g»*neral and of service in marketing our products. But to concentrate all of our rnergie« in building hard surface road« where they will be of the least service in marketing our products, which are now being well served by the railroads, we regard as not the wisest plan.
