C. Becker, special assistant to the at

ciated with United St a tee District
Attorney John McCourt In trying the
case known as the Richard D. Jones,
or Los Angeles land fraud hearing,
arrived from the south UiIb morning.
Mr. Becker was In San Francisco
several days, and conferred with
Franca J. H.-ney .relative to the Btn
ger llei main- .as9, which has been
set down for hearing November 9, In
the ledcral court In Portland. Thic
Is one of the cases Mr. Heney is to
come to Portland to try himself.
Owing to the fact that four weeks
have already been taken up in the
Ruef case In San Francisco and a
jury not yet secured, Mr. Heney was
not certain whether he could be here
by November 9. In the event that
Mr. Heney Is not able to get away
from the graft prosecution In San
Francisco on the date set for the
Hermann trial, the case will be postponed.
Why Colds are Dangerous.
Because you have contracted or
dinary colds and recovered from
them without treatment of any kind,
do not for a moment Imagine that
colds are not dangerous. Everyone
knows that pneumonia and chronic
catarrh have their origin In a com
mon cold. Consumption Is not caus
ed by a cold but the cold prepares
the system for the reception and de
velopment of the germs that would
not otherwise have found lodgment.
It Is the same with all infectious
diseases. Diphtheria, scarlet fever,
meusles and whooping cough arc
much more likely to be contracted
when the child has a cold. You will
see from this that more real danger
urks In a cold than In any other
of the common ailments. The easiest
and quickest way to cure a cold 1b
to take Chamberlain s Cough Remedy

by this preparation have made It a

An Excellent Foundation Is a
Prime Necessity.
MUST BE FREE FROM WATER
Provision 8hould Be Mado For Thor
ough Drainage How to Roll the
Foundation Materials to Use For
Surfacing Rural Highway.
Before a finishing surface of any
material is applied to a road all tbe
preliminary work should be complet
ed. Tbe road should have been grad
ed, drains provided und the road made
safe by proper guard rails. With all
this done, the dirt road Is a founda
tion for the different materials that
may be put upon It
For country roads there need U
considered only pavements that are
put on In small fragments. The ma
terials most commonly used are gravel
and broken Btoue. Oyster shells and
slag from Iron furnaces are oftentimes
employed In localities where these ma
terials are at hand, while under cer
tain conditions, when uo other ma
terials could be obtulned, burnt clay
has proved serviceable. The object of
a pavement Is to furnish a wearing
surface for the road and a protection
for the foundation from water and con
sequent softening. It Is in reullty a
roof.
When dry, all but the very sandy
soils are firm enough to support the
weight of wagons of all ktuds, but
when wet little support la furnished.
It Is well known that sund when con
lined will stand any pressure that can
be put upon It. Thus If a Buudy road
bed Is covered with a surfacing ma
terial wblcb will hold the sand In place
an excellent foundation Is obtained.
While a surfuclng material Is designed
to take the wear. It is the foundation
that must resist the pressure, and any
road which Is constructed without giv
ing due attention to the foundation Is
wrong from the start and never will
be a good road until the defect Is rem
edied. To prepare n natural roadbed
for surfuclng material It Is necessary
to bring It to a proper grade and to
conform its crons Bectiou with that of
the finished surface that Is, no Bur-
facing should be put upon a roadbed
which Is flat or, ns is oftentimes the
case, lower In the middle than at the
sides. Iu such Instances the proper
shape should be given to tbe roadbed
by filling In with such material as Is
necessary and then rolling the whole
until It becomes firm and uuyleldlug.
During the course of construction of
a roadbed, If there are places that
have a wet, springy subsoil, they must
be drained and every precaution taken
to make the foundation of the road
dry. The pavement will keep wuter
from going through from the top, but
it will not keep water from percolating
into the foundation from springs at
the sides or underneath. Therefore
where there Is danger of water get
ting to the foundation from the sides
or from below It must be cut off either
by side d ruins or by drains directly tin'
dement h tbe road Itself. Where the
soli Is too light, gravelly or sandy earth
should be carted In to take Its place.
With the roadbed brought up to
grade and provision made for thor
ough drainage It is then compacted by
rolling either by horse or steam power.
In the rolling of the foundation per
haps quite as good results can be ob
tained with a horse roller as with a
steam roller, and in some loose soils
much less difficulty will be experienced,
although more rolling will be required
to compact the earth as firmly as by
the heavier steam roller. This Is a
part of the work that Is too often
slighted and Is the cause of depres
sions subsequently appearing In the
finished road. Tbe rolling of the foun
dation will bring out the weaker
places, where there will be a settling.
The depressions should be filled and
brought to an even surface with grav
el If It Is at hand. It Is cheaper to
even up depressions by rolling the
foundation than by attempting to
smooth the finished surface with addi
tional broken stone. When tbe founda
tion hns been rolled and all uneven u ess
has disappeared It Is then ready to re
ceive the surfacing.
it oftentimes happens when grading
a particular piece of rood preparatory
to surfacing It with broken stone that
It is necessary to do considerable
heavy filling. In such instances It may
be advisable to delay the laying of
macadam for some time In order to
give tbe embankments time to settle,
for It Is Impossible to construct an em
'jankment of earth more than a few
feet In height without having suhse
lueut settlement, if this settling took
place evenly all along the embankment
no particular harm would be done to
the surfacing laid upon It, but owing
to the difference In the soils composing
tnliankmentn and also the way the
earth Is dumped there Is always a tend
ency for some parts to settte more than
others.
If there arlw circumstances making
It Impracticable to wait for the em
bankment to "season." every precau
tion should be taken In Its formation
to guard Against uneven sett Hue This
can lie done by spreading the earth In
successive layers of about a font In
thickness, which are rolled or tamped
as solid as possible. Another advan
tage In delaying the surfacing of a
newly graded rood Is that a chance Is
given to observe the action under frost
of certain sections and so provide ad
ditional nnderdrnln. which If omitted
might have caused a fa 11 j re in that
portion of tbe macadam.
