connection, which would complete
the chain, would be acceptable. At
that time, as it will be remembered,
there were those wno tavoreu, a voau
leading from Broadwater northward.
There were others who djd not favor
this plan and after considerable inves
tigation and discussion, an agreement
was reached whereby, it is safe to pre
sume, there will be built eventually
two routes to the nortn one xrom
Bridgeport and another from Broad
water. It was also agreed that state
and federal aid was to be sought in
the construction of the road and that
the state highway- officials were to

in making the location, ,
AU of this has Ueft clone. Th1
tounty commifcslOners together with
division and department representa

territory: they have several times
traversed the interlying countryside
lUftd they have finally, after due consid
eration, decided definitely upon a route.
And this, just this, is the thorn in tne
side of the Alliance newspaper the
entire wishes of some of the more am
bitious Alliance boosters could not be
and were not given preference as
against the common interest of. the
taxpayers.
There was good cau?e for the action
of the engineers and the, county board,
too. The road as designated can be
put into fcuch condition as to make its
use practicable at an outlay of about
$5,000; the route as suggested and in
sisted upon by some would, to accom
plish. the same end, entail an expendi
ture of many times this amount. Ad
mitting the latter to be' the shorter
route, could it be deemed an act of
wisdom Ho attempt its .adoption when
it is known at the outset that the cost
is not only prohibitive, but, at this
time, altogether impossible?
'This, however, is beside the question.
The road has been legally designated;
It has been located just as it was

I believe that Bridgeport, the commis
sioners, or the people of the county
favored at any time that which would
make necessary the expending of $35.-

had ever fully Jcculed upon any partic

A $125 saddle and a rifle belonging
to one of the Sidler boys, that was
stolen several weeks ago "from the Ed
Fenner ranch, where the Sidler toy

when Mr. Fenner went to Broken Bow
in response to a telegram from a
friend, saying that the saddle had been
seen there. Mr. Fenner found that the
postmaster at Broken Bow had traded
a pistol for the rifle and one of the
clerks in the postoffice had purchased
the saddle for $45.00.

but the kindliest feeling for Alliance
and her townspeople and her neigh

county.- It does, however, resent the
repeated accusation th.t Bridgeport or
the county board has "changed fronts."
Neither has nor will. Both are fully
familiar with the accruing benefits of
the route in question but there is not
a chance. We arc to have a road; we
should, all of us, be glad of this. Al
