ROAD LEGISLATION.
There arc several good roads bill»
now in inculmtion in the Oregon leg«
islature and doubtlcM aome of them
will matérialité into law«. All of
them so far an yet heard from are
haM-'l upon state bond issues.
In the light of the ex|x*nencr the
road bonding act of two year» ago
has given ua and the arbitrary plan»
of the state roada commission in
aelling the bonds and expending the
money, the people outside of Port
land and the Columbia river coua-
lie* are not friandly to bond issues
We have given up the* automobile
license money to thia good roads
proposition; have had our roads des
troyed by autos at home, and others
running up and down the state, but
In order to got any benefit from the
>6,(MM),(MM) tiond issue we must run
down to Portland to take a ride on
the Columbia highway which our
money has h> Ijied to build.
The people generally and in Linn
county in particular are opposed to
becoming obligated for the payment
of bonds unless we have some of the
lienetila. We think our own roads
are of more importance to ua at
least than are the joy riding roada
up and down the Columbia river.
Wo urn* <>ur roads, such as they are.
for business purposes as well as for
joy riding and we insist that our
money at least shall be expended on
roads which are of some benefit tn
ourselves
So we object to any
road plan which involves a bond is
sue which docs not inure to our
lienefit in aome measure.
The people of Linn county are
willing to vote bonds and are willing
to buy bonds providing the bonds
they buy the proceeds of which are
expended on Linn county roada.
Hut they will not vote bonds and
have the money turned over to a
Portland road commission to spend
the proceeds wheresoever such com
mission elects to expend it.
The IS,(MM).(MM) bond iasue will be
practically exhausted this year
As
yet Linn county has not had a cent
of benefit therefrom though we have
given up 110.000 or more of our
automobile license to the scheme.
We simply have the promise of ten
miles of hard surface road leading
from Jefferson to Albany. Let ua
hope we get this favor from the
commission for the 1200,000 to 1300.-
000 we will be Compelled to pay of
the bond issue
We feel that thia
ahort atrip of road is coating ua more
than double what we ourselves could
build it for. Therefore Linn county
will oppose another bond issue, aa
