BARTON So far as I know, no other nation has, or ever has had, just such a day as this which every spring we celebrate. It is a day sacred to holy memories that recede farther and farther into the mist of our yesterdays, yet live again with the blooming of the flowers. No nation ever did quite what ours did a half century ago. The negro slaves did not rise up in insurrection and free themselves; Wot even Old John Brown was able to incite them to wise for their own freedom. The black men were freed by white men of their own land Nor would it be true to say that the men of the North conquered the men of the South and thus made the nation free. Southern men in great numbers fought for the Union—180,000 of them from the mountains of Kentucky, Tennessee and adjacent states. North and South had sinned together in the establishment of slavery; | and the South had a share far from negligible in its eradication. We are one nation. We were not sure about it in 1861, but we have been sure of it since 1865. It is a blessed thing to be able to put ome sorrows where we can lay flowers upon them. The memories of strife two generations ago should lie deep beneath the sod, and on the sod should bloom pot thorns but flowers. The men who fought in the World War wer grandsons of the men who fought Richmend Let us remember the courage and forget the bitterness, Let us remem- ber the principles for which we fought, and never forget that those prin ciples are established. Two facta the Civil War settled permanently: we are one nation, and that nation is and forever is to be a free nation. Let us remember that not the sons but the at Vicksburg and Gettysburg and Try This on Your Wise Friend If you can pasture 10 cows or 15 horses on your land,. but have only nine horses, how many cows is there room for? Answer in Tuesday's Star ee county not long ago and I am sur prised that the county officials at Port Townsend are aa ignorant of conditions in that part of the coun try as they appear to be, There ar 18 families in Hoh river district uvial soil, Several no abandoned and would be only too glad to come back to them if the country was opened up. | For several years the county com: minsioners and county engineer have | been bufiding trails up the Hob val: | ley. The building and upkeep of) these trails has amounted to over one hundred and fifty thousand dollars. | This question comes to my mind Why couldn't this one hundred and fifty thousand dollars have been apent on a permanent road for the settlers? It is to the interest of the Mil waukee Timber company and also to other timber companies who own} timber In this part of the state, to discourage the building of roads. } to suffer from lack of transportagion for the inst 25 years. Why should industrious pioneers wuffer all these | years for the rake of “moneyed men™ and their interests? ‘Phere are three schools in the Hoh river valley. The cost of maintain ing them amounted to $4,100 this last year. One school is all that is neces: | sary. With roads, these children could be transported to @ single | school | I was talking with some of the set thers and they informed me that the) onty time they heard from Port Townsend was when thelr taxes were due and at election time i Before the recent windstorm the trails were in an excellent condition, I was told, Now they are much worse than they were in 1900, It has cost about three hundred dollars a mile, at the present rate of wages, to open @ temporary horse trail. If trail work is kept up for another 25 years, the expenditure will amount to another hundred and fifty, thou sand dollars, Even to an outsider it looks as tho the money should be spent on permanent work | While looking thru 4 Port Towns end paper some time ago 1 noticed | an article in which the Jefferson | county engineer was complimented | for the splendid roads around Port Townsend. Imagine my surprise, on going into the west end of Jefferson county, to find only puncheon trails. I inquired as to how often the engi neer visited this part of the county | and ray surprise was further in-| creased when 1 was informed that he had never visited this part of the country Comparing the east and weet end of Jefferson county, I find that the west end has the greater posslbili ties, All that fs needed there in a} road for transportation. The people will do the rest. So wake up, Jeffer. son county officials! The west end lof your county has been neglected | | for 20 years. Now is the time tajact. | Muke your county one of the best in the state!
