Charity Board Has Passed Upon 15 Applications (Continued from Page 1.) 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 h asked fo,' advice and assistance in making the location, , AU of this has Ueft clone. Th1 tounty commifcslOners together with division and department representa tives had made several surveys of the 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 promised it would be and, though re gretting the fact, if such exists, that there are those in Alliance who are not pleased, the people of Morrill ".'I county together with the members of the county board are well satisfied. This much they know. No delegation. no individuals, were given reason to 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.- 000 to $40,000; that the commissioners had ever fully Jcculed upon any partic ular route and tl?at County Commis sioner Carroll of Box Butte county was in any mrnner, directly or in directly, responsible for the present route- Chester Beck Is Injured at the Lakeside Well Chester Beck, nephew of Willis Beck and at one time an employe of the Alliance Creamery company, suf- - .'.,-' ': ... , "ii fered some severe cuts about the face and head at the Lakeside oil project Monday morning. His injuries will necessitate an enforced vacation of several days. Mr. Beck was handling cne of the huge wrenches at the struc ture which broke, throwing him against the wall of the building with sufficient force to cause his injuries. The recently organized charity board for Alliance, including representatives' of various organizations 'in the eitv has entered upon its new duties ener-j , The News-Blade invites no quarrel getically, and within the firVt week of its existence has investigated and ap proved fifteen applications for aid.

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 was working, was recovered Saturday when Mr. Fenner went to Broken Bow in response to a telegram from a friend, saying that the saddle had been seen there.

How can Obregon expect us to rec ognize Mexico? It doesn't look like the same old place since he's been president of it. New York World. Some of the best ro adrocords of the season are being made by Ameri can aviators walking back. with the Alliance newspaper; it has but the kindliest feeling for Alliance and her townspeople and her neigh bors, the farmer folk of Box Butte 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 liance is fully abi'e to meet any myth ical competition i insofar as the routing of the tourists may be concerned and of which the Alliance Herald seems to be afraid. Let's go!
