JOE AZEVEDO TONIGHT
ON December '.11 tho people of .losephiuo county will
vole on it road b&nd issue of $225,000 bonds bearing
five nor cent interest. It is stipulated that the funds
"shall be expended in building permanent roads, alter
redeeming outstanding road indent eilncss ot approxi
mately $125.000.' '
The roads to be improved specified are thirty-three in
number, and total $8 1,000. This would total, with the war
rants to be redeemed. $20fl,000. leaving U,000 which
could not be used, under the law.
It is extremely doubtful whether such a bond issue
would be valid, as the county bonding act does not author
ize the issuance of bonds for the redemption of outstand
ing warrants. It provides merely the issuance "for the
purpose of raising money to be used for the co'nst ruction
and maiutainance of permanent roads" not of those
already constructed.
To'seatter $81,000 on thirty-three roads produces no
permanent roads, m the general acceptance oi tile term.
This is an average expenditure of 2500 per road, and only
earth roads can be constructed for this amount even
assuming that each road will average but two miles in
length not enough money to even properly grade the
roads. Moreover, such an expenditure can be made with
an ordinary road levy and not necessitate a bond issue. I f
the bond program carries. Josephine county will be little
better off than at present it will merelv have completed
its system of summer roads with its credit exhausted.
The call for the bond issue indicates the refusal of
.Josephine county to co-operate with Jackson county in the
building of the Pacific highway, as a paved thoroughfare
through Oregon. But $2000 is appropriated for improve
ment of the seven miles between Grants Pass and .lack
son county. Small sums are to be expended in improve
ments of other sections, but only enough for repair and
maiutainance. There is no permanence in the program.
Sections of the Crescent Citv road tare but little better,
some $13,000 being expended on the several sections. The
bulk of the money is to be dribbled away on crossroads.
When the money is all spent, Josephine county will still be
without a good winter road, and all the annual road levy
will be required for niaintainance.
The entire program is eharactreistic of the pettiness of
the "good road boosters" of Josephine county who
graded a hundred yards of road at the Josephine-.Iackson
boundary and put up a large sign, "This is Josephine
county," and who spend their energies in trying to direct
travel from the Pacific highway over the coast route .to
eliminate Jackson county from the map. Vhat else could
be cxneeted but that they would go at the good roads pro
gram backsides forward and fritter away their time on an
illegal bond issue to improve, country crossroads ?
It is a keen disappointment but it was expected.

p UBLrC-SPIIUTED cjtizens are needed in Mudford to
take hold of the city government and place it on a
business Lasisj. They ought to come forward at this crisis
and consent to sacrifice a little of their time and energy
in stopping the leaks and systematizing the eitv's finances.
Tile first step on the program is the reorganization of
present conditions. This out of the way, the new council
could then appoint a charter revision committee to submit
a commission form of government. This should consist of
an unpaid commission of not over five, who would employ
a feiimricu Miisuicre manager xo manage me ctiy, uimer
supervision of the commissioners.
To bring about this program, the best class of citizens
should volunteer to serve on the council for the short time
requisite fo eomolete the program. It is a matter that
vitally concerns every property owner and resident and
there ought to be enough patriotism to insure the election
olc.onipctennuen.
