I It has been conservatively estimated by the county
court that if the road bond limit measure fails Morrow
'. county will lose in cold cash, at least $328,600 of state and
. federal money. If the federal authorities stay by their of
; fer of a year ago to match every dollar put up by both the
, county and state with an equal amount for building post
roads, the loss on the Heppner-HardmanT-Uounment road
will add $70,000 to that amount, making a total loss to the
county of $398,600.
" ' I After wallowing through mud and dust and sand and
THE 4 PER CENT ROAD BOND LIMIT MEASURE! ruts and over rocks and roots and hills and mountains all
these vears can the people of Morrow county afford to
V NK year ago the people of Morrow county voted bv a
I I heavy majority to bond the county to the limit for the
V purpose of building good roads. Under the present road
laws the state is bound to co-operate with any county in
the state matching dollar for dollar, county road funds to
lie used in building permanent highways according to speci
fications of the State Highway Commission. At that time
it was believed the state had sufficient funds to carry out
its share of the partnership agreement in putting through
the elaborate system of permanent highways in Oregon
already planned.
Unprecedented advances in the cost of labor and ma
terials, however, rapidly depleted the state's funds and by
the end of the year it became painfully evident that some
means must be devised to replenish the state road fund or
orop the road-building program.
It was because of this alarming situation that it was
decided to place upon the ballot at the May primaries, a
measure providing for an amendment to the constitution
raising the Road Bond Limit from 2 per cent to 4 per cent
of the assessed valuation of the state.
That measure is now on the ballot and upon its adop
tion or rejection by the voters depends the success or fail
ure of Oregon's good road program.
The State Highway Commission cannot match dollars
with Morrow or any other county if they have no money
to get into the game with.
Morrow county voted road bonds to the amount of
$jt),(XX) and before the election at a conference of represen
tative citizens called from all parts of the county, the money
was apportioned as follows:
Willow creek section of Oregon-Washington highway,
$125,000; Hinton creek section of Oregon-Washington
highway, $40,000; 1 leppner-I Iardman-Mounment road,
$7o,ox; Tone-C.ooseberry road, $25,000; Lexington-Sand
Hollow road, $5,000; Lena-l'ine City road on Butter creek
$io,(kx); Upper Willow creek-Ditch creek, (Hitter road),
$1 5,000.
This monev. it should be remembered, cannot be used
fur repairing or patching up present roads but every dollar
nnlciu'd by tin- state must be expended in building perman
ml roads according to specifications and surveys approved
throw away that amount of money just for the fun of con
tinuing indefinitely the old wallowing process?
Morrow county should cast a unanimous vote tor tne
4 per cent road bond limit measure. It means getting
nearly $400,000 of good, elegant, outside money witn wnicn
to pull ourselves 'out of the mud. And who likes easy out
side money any better than we do .
Vote for the Road Bond Limit Measure ana win a Dig
pot.

An Eastern exchange makes this
good hit:
The United States Senate is inves--

it has been learned that while there
is a shortage of paper the present !
high prices are not justified but' are
owing to the work of profiteers. Then
follows this significant statement:
'But. it is doubtful if the government
can do anything." Wo thin'k that a

This weather brings to Dr. Beau
champ's mind the hot days in the
wheat fields of Morrow and Umatilla
counties. Those scorching days were
in the "long ago" period of the doc
tor's life, although as centuries run,
they were not far back at all. He is
paying a visit to the Imperial hotel
and other prominent Portland places.
Tin? visitor is a physician of Stay-
ton. He is a graduate of Wlllammette
university, having worked his way
through Oregon's pioneer clussic
school. That is why the heat ray3
are, today making Beauchamp think.
It took money to attend college when
H. A. IliaiH-hamp was young, just the
same as it dues now. The only ca: h
he had w;s what he named.

Ben Fleming, who was a pioneer
resident of Heppner but has Seen
away from the old town for many
years, was a caller at this office on
Thursday and talked interestingly of
early days. Pointing to the big pop
lar near the May street bridge, Mr.
Fleming said: "I planted that tree
when it was nothing but a small
switch when this was a mighty new
town." The Palace hotel ruins also
recalled old time memories to Mr.
Fleming. "I carried the first pack
age of meat into that hotel when it
was first opened," he said. "I was
delivering meat for the butcher at
that time, and I remember another
thing that happened, or nearly hap
pened in that basement. I came near
having to kill a man In there one
morning. He was an old French cook
and that morning when I went in
with the meat he was drutfk and
came at me with a big butcher knife
I grubbed the cleaver, and stood him
off until I was able to make a get
awav. but it was a. close call for the
cook."
Mr. Fleming now follows the car
penter business and wants to locate
iiL-Min in Hennner which he still
thinks is a worth while town.
