The Hoston Herald has begun
movement for a world's teroeoenniai
exposition In that olty in IflUO to com
memoiate the three-hundredth annlv
erasry ot the lauding of tbe Pilgrims
and the founding of New Kngland.
It attempts a review of the past ex
positions held throughout tbe United
States, but it is noticeable that no
mention appears therein of the Lewis
and Clark exposition at Portland in
1906. which was about the only one
that ever proved a success financially
Neither is there mention made of the
Alaska - Yukon Pacific exposition,
which will be opened at Seattle next
mouth. Evidently tbe Boston lans are
unable to see beyond tbe (tontines ot
tbeir city. I.emember, the far west -
the Pacific Northwest Is always on
the map, Mr. Herald, and is tbe
coming great section of the United
State,---Statesman.
Tbe announcement that the county
oourt have made definite arrangements
to i 'ii 1 1 I permanent roads, will be
very satisfactory to the majority of
the tax payers. Jt was for this pro
pose that so large a tax was levied tor
road purposes, and the fact that noth
ing had as yet been done in that re
gard was causing some criticism, but
the delay was caused by t.ikiiig time
to make through investigations of the
different road making machinery,
with the result that several hundred
dollars were saved in the purchase,
and the court are satisfied that
they have secured the best machines
to suit the conditions of the valley
Quite a hole has been made in the
road fund lor the pmchase of a plant
but It will be good for many years
and if not a very large stretch of per
ruaitent road is built this year, a start
can be made. The highly developed
farms in the country can afford to
have macadamized roads, and while
the first cost will be high, it will be
tbe cheapest In tbe long run, anil it
will be a good investment. Uood
roads, better grades, and in time tbe
replacing ot the old wooden bridges
over creeks aud ravines with steel
bridgos, must come.
