HEPPNER PENDLETON . ROAD
Le'Jnglon, April 23, 1907
Editor vWhea(freld; -
Having noticed the comments in
some of the county papers regarding
the H-eppneir-Pendleton road would
like to express my views on this sub
ject, i would like 'to state that the
writer Is now and always has teen an
advocate of .good roads, but J do not
see the advantages to the entire coun
ty of this proposed road to Pendleton.
It would be a great advantage to Pen
dleton and quite a benefit to Heppner,
yet to the county at large I cannot see
ette valley to build Eastern Oregon
roads, neither''do I believe It right and
just to ta th people of Lexington and
lone districts to build Heppner roads.
It Is claimed that' motors would be
'placed on this road by a company who
would agree to keepthe road In repair
for the privilege of operating their mo
tors over it. I belive that If the coun
ty would secure a ricihl nf wav cnH

blld roads that is of no benefit to the
county at large. I would 1e pleased
to have others who are interested in
this matter to express their views, &
there may be some points in connec
tion with this road question that i do
not understand.
