BLUE POLE ROAD MEETING. Brown County Democrat: The Blue Pole Road meeting at Long Pine last Friday evening, was the most enthu siastic affair of like nature ever held in Northwest Nebraska, and every town between Norfolk and Chadron was represented, with one single ex ception—Battle Creek. A total of 140 boosters, representing 29 towns were present. The road will follow the Northwestern railway quite closely. Formal organization was perfected by the election of the following officers: President, W. H. Blakeman, Nor folk; first vice president, W. T. White, Chadron; second vice president, Geo. F. Wolz, Fremont; secretary-treas urer, burton brown, JNorioiK. The directors selected are: W. S. Crook, Meadow Grove; W. F. Parker, Wood Lake; R. E. Jones, Springview; E. L. Davies, Ewing; H. A. Code, Nen zel; Will Hollstein, Rushville; A. H. Jensen, Neligh; A. W. Honnen, Johns town; Arthur Bowring, Merriman; C. T. Bowen, Ainsworth; E. C. Cole, Cody; A. B. Green, Valentine; F? C. Duerfeldt, Gordon; F. S. Gatenby, Clearwater; Walter P. P. Phite, Chac'l ron; C. A. Wickman, Eli; Joseph Gilg, Newport; George F. Wolz, Fremont; W. E. Preble, Bassett; W. J. Douglas, Atkinson; T. V. Golden, O’Neill; Chas. II. Frady, Oakdale; William Krotter, Stuart; R. H. Hamilton, Long Pine; Theo. II. Strenger, Norden; George W. Davies, Inman; A. W. Breyer, Nor folk; E. II. Sutherland, Tilden; Carl S. Horn, Hay Springs. Directors for the towns east of Nor folk are to be added to the board later. The first official action of the new or ganization was instruction to directors in each to/wn to secure logging of the route through each county. This will be filed immediately with the state in order to secure a complete marking and official approval of the route selected. The biggest feature in the debate was the fight which Springview dele gates inaugurated for this deviation from Stuart. These delegates declar ed that they had marked the Blue Pole route about nine years ago and after the smoke of battle had cleared away, they indicated willingness for the designation of a straight Blue Pole highway west from Stuart, but pre ferred a secondary system highway via Carnes. The directors passed on these questions in executive session, the straight Blue Pole road motion carrying by a vote of twenty-five to three and the proposal for a secondary system via Crfrnes and Springview failing of passage. While this was the pivotal question in determining the action, it was indicated that the local situations were going to be left to the various communities where such mat ters can be threshed out more intelli gently. Tho blue pole higttmy maridn** will l>e of blue with white letters “B. P. H.” The constitution and by laws which were adopted were similar to those adopted by the Grainland high way association. Membership in the association will be $1. Life member ships cost $10 and were taken out by i score of commercial and community clubs. This money is to be used for the marking of the highway and for other incidental expense. The entire assembly showed ap preciation of the entertainment given by the Long Pine people by rising votes of thanks. Appreciation was ex tended to the Greater Norfolk associa tion for the part it lias played in help ing to bring the Blue Pole road Roost ers together for co-ordinated action which is hoped to result in puliRig many important towns out of al most impregnable sand and bad road conditions. Similar appreciation was extended to the newspapers and all those who are taking such an import ant part in helping1 to build up the system of Nebraska roads. ' The delegates declared that Long Pine did herself proud in the matter of entertainment of the delegates, with a banquet and other features. The “Blue Pole” scheme was followed out closely by Long Pine merchants in window decorations, etc., and some were very attractive. WEEKLY MARKETGRAM. (U. S. Bureau of Markets and Crop Estimates.)
