Boosting" the
Lincoln Highway.
T. C. Patterson, county consul for
the Lincoln Memorial Highwny, has ap
pointed the following town consuls for
Lincoln county: North Platte, M. J.
B'orbes; Brady, J. W. Pulliam; Max
well, J. W. Nugent; Hershcy, D. M.
Leypeldt: Sutherland, A. W. Hoatson.
The object of theso consuls is to boost
the highway in all possible ways and
especially the sale of tho highway cer
tificates. Certainly the men selected
by Mr. Patterson aro full of energy
and they are very enthusiastic for the
highway. Good work may bo expected
of them.
The sale of certificates in Lincoln
county has not been pushed, only about
eighty having been sold up to last Sat
urday, but now that tho town consuls
have been appointed the sales will be
pushed with energy.
A meeting of the county hnd town
consuls will, bo held at Grand ' Island
November 19th and it is expocted that
all the Lincoln county consuls, as well
as the three county commissioners will
attend. There will be present at this
meeting the highway engineer, repre
sentatives of the Union Pacific and
State Consul Frcdrickson. It is prob
able that a general outline of the work
to be performed in Nebraska will be
formulated, and the exact route of the
highway laid out. The route is protty
certain to bo on the Union Pacific
right-of-way clear across the state, but
its exact location as to where it will
traverse the south side and where the
north Bide of tho track will be deter
mined. Certain it is that the railroad
crossings will be as few as possible.
The general opinion is that the ma
terial to be used on the highway through
Nebraska will be Sherman gravel, which
the Union Pacific has offered to furnish
at about the cost of loading and trans
porting. This is undoubtedly the best
material that can be obtained, and it
certainly makes a fine roadway.
The first move the people of North
Platte and the Lincoln county people
living along the highway line should
make is to boost tho sale of certificates,
as our interest in tho highwny will be
largely guaged by the numbor sold.
Down in the east part of the state some
individuals are buying as high as one
hundred each, and in the little town of
Waterloo, with only 410 inhabits, $2,900
worth of the certificates haye been sold.
At least 1,000 should be sold in Lincoln
county. The next move after the sale
of certificates will be the construction
df a bridge across the river east of town.
To acquire this bridge it will be neces
sary for North Platte to voto its share
of the bonds for the construction. With
out this bridge tho highwny cannot well
come into North Platte, for it is known
that the highway officers' would not for
a minute consider tho south of the river
routo with its meandering rood.
The national highway will be a big
thing for North Platte; it will bring
thousands of visitors to the city each
season, and each visitor will leave more
or less money with our business men.
Probably nine-tenths of those who pass
through will spend tho night in town.
But the highway cannot be built with
out the hearty co-operation of the peo
ple along the route, and North Platte
and the people of the valley must do
their share.
