Calls Attention to Roads.
A resident vitally Interested in tho
welfare of North Plattte yesterday
said: "I would like to call tho atten
tion of tho business men of our city to
tho condition of tho roads In tho valley
leading to tho routes to Gandy, tho
Garfield tablo and to Tryon. There
is much travel over these roads, as a
largo percentage of tho merchants'
country, trado comes from tho north
country. Tho ,road to Gandy cast of
the creek ana a short distance norm
is almost Impassable, and tho road
near tho Macombor bridge on tho
Tryon routo needs fixing badly. It Is
estimated that $150 expended on thoso
two routes would make tho roads fair
ly good."

Liberty Hell Over Highway.
Potltlons were circulated yesterday
asking Mayor Blankcnburg, of Phila
delphia, to permit the Liberty Bell to
bo transported to San Francisco in a
motor car over the Lincoln Highway
instead of by rail. These petitions
will be sent In from every town along
tho highway. It Is argued that If sent
over tho highway millions of people
will seo this historic bell, whllo if
sent by rail a comparatively small
number will havo an opportunity - to
view It. School children In every
town and vlllago along the route
would see It, and undoubtedly It would
tend to arouse patriotism among
them. Tho petitions sent in from here
contained tho names of four or five
hundred pupils of the schools.
