The result is the unique alight of dozens of men oc cupted at points where their efforts count for naught A recent trip through the North district was an eye-opener Alows the old military road which crosses the mountains at Snoqualmie pase the road workers are massed at various potmts, throwing gravel where there is not the slightest ox cuse for graveling, and ying their hardest to look exceedingly busy Everyone knows about the drop of water process, and this graveling work resembles it In many respects. particularly with reference to the actual amount of gravel which one man places on the road in any siven length of time.

There is a knoll to one aide and the men and two teams at work for road around the knoll. The regular new road, under the most tageous circumstances, would leave & grade to pull up, direction The distance covered by plece of road work does not exceed 40 yards, This loaves a little tn excess of two yards for each man On the entire job this would leave each man 72 inches of road to puild. ‘The work has now contin ued for three weeks, and {a not fin ished. This means that each work man has not finished three Inches a day, eliminating the two teams from consideration. Continuing the deduction, it would mean that at proportionately the same rate of progress and same amount of pay It would cost the county seventeen billion dollars to do the work which is actually re qui on our county roads Luckily for the people, campaigns do not come every day. It is high ly possible that the road workers make their “Jobs last” for this very reason Work Gangs Everywher Between Issaquah and Falls City the reporter encountered four gangs of men at work om the road.
