Kd.), Roma, Italy, Sept. 10, 1!U2. Editor Kouelmrg Review: In our last letter we told you that we were out sight seeing In Rome, that St. Peters would be the first place we would visit. Next mnrujiK, immediately tifter breakfast, which by the way consists of two hard bis cuits baked 15 days before, and a cup of coffee, we were again driven to St. Peters. We paHsed up the broad, flight of step" through the bronze doors tuudo in 1445, with the pagan, one of the frequent reminders In Rome that Christianity Is grafted upon an ancient religion which the obelisk in the Piazza has seeu blos som and decay.

We walked about In the space of ' the church, disturbed und disconcerted with none of the calm mid peace that comes to us In many n lesser one And indeed the worshippers here save on high days and holiday's, are few enough. The numerous confessionals with ihtlr Inscriptions In gill letters, Pro lllirlcu Lingua, Pro lllspanlcu Lin gun, Pro Angllca Lluguu, for all na tlons of the earth, add to the Im pression that this Is a kind of Im mense Inlerniitlonal clearing bouse rather than tho quiet sauetuary fur the burdened heart. St. Peters had an humble origin; the Apostle St. Peter was critrilhwl here by Nero's executioners on the way from the Mamertlue prison Some t'lirlKlinns buried the body against the wall of Nero's 1'ircus and marked the spot, which afterwards they often visited In prayers. A priest whom Peter ordained, built a little oratory over- the grave, and from that little beginning In less than two thousand years we see thts most magnificent queen of alt Purity Guaranteed under all State and National Pure Food Laws.

As you wander through the church and 1(4 thbpeU, yoil feel you are j threading throuxh no rue wonderfully nun ilvtd city, filled with innumer 'able objects that dlfitruet the atten- ! lion. Wo did not fall to nee the great bronze Btaluc- of Ht. I'eter, and we con Id not help to reflect on the Ron erationK of devo(ten who have crept hy thlN Htatue. and kitted Hinooth the bronze foot of the .Saint, with uome emotion. 'J' ho clnitfli abounds In good Hftttpture. In the crypt are tombs of the mediaeval popes, and almost every one di -Hires to Bee the cele brated sculpture of the.Madona delta Pieta of Michelangelo. MohI of the KngllHh upeukliiK viultors ask to see the monument of the Stuarts. James III, Charles 111 and Henry IX (Car dinal York), are the three Stuarts commemorated, but the monument Itself la of no particular beauty. Wo also visited the dome. From the little gallery you gaze down upon the vast Interior below and seem to Bee a different St. Peters. The vnBt neus of tho edifice comes home to you anew, but the numerous parts and object h, shrunken by distance, fall Into a kind of harmony you could not wo from below. Hy a stairway we emerged to the outer dome, and wu have Home, before us, spread out like a map the city, the river Tiber, the gurdeiiH, the Capitol and the Palatine, modern and ancient Uome, the eternal city. We have also visited tho five pa triarchal fhurelicH. which dominated ;tt one time the religious world.

II III The Orngon State Legislature la iiii'K4m1 to take fuvorable action rela- tlv to road appropriations In the luti'Ht of the bulletins issued by tho Pacific Highway ABBoclatlon. The bulletin reviews the Kood work being ilone and contemplated for roads In other states, and the advantages which will accrue from suitable legislation In Oregon are set forth In tho bulletin. Henry cxi'ciitive officer of the association, says : "Tho Pacific Highway Association I'Mii well congratulate the people of Oregon and Washington for the lib eral view they take towards the con struction of this most Important of trunk highways, and Us connecting link, tho Pacific Highway bridge acroKs the Columbia River. "It was a happy decision on the part of the joint bridge committees when they decided to cull this bridge the Pacific Highway bridge. Six tnoiit lis ago t here was considerable fcelltig against a Pacific Highway, hut today there Is very Mttle opposl-" tint) to this project. "Ilrltlsh Columbia has made pro lsiim for this road. It will be com pleted In that province with the ooii, otH) to be spent there this year. With u poiml.it Urn of only 400,000, It will expend $0 per capita this year "The state of Washington Is now ruiiKhlcrliig the expenditure of $X. iM.o.uiio during the years r.i;! and I'M I on state roads and permanent highways. This In addition to tho $.'.000,000 that the counties will ex pend each year on purely county county roads, and tho $3,000,000 voted at tho last election hy King County makes a total of $L'1.000,000 to be expended In Washington before I ! I What Will Orvgoii 1o? "Inforniiilion obtained from the County Clerks of Oregon show that during the year 1 IM 2 approximately $J..".mi,000 was spent in Oregon on county roads. If as much is spent d tt ring t lit nex I two years by t he countfeH $;i,lt;o,000 will he expended in l ho whole state on county roads. ' The assessed . valuation of prop erty In the two states of Oregon and Wellington Is almost the same. Ore gon contains 9t,000 square miles Washington contains 69,000 sounre mill's (two-thirds as much). Wash ington nlll try to Bpend $ L' 1 .000,000 before ltUr. "California Is spending $30,000, ""0 on roads. "What w 111 Oregon put into the development of her roads during the next two years? "King County in Washington ha bonded herself for $3,000,000 for roads. lo you not think Oregon can afford to bond herself for $10,000. "imi and build a system of highwayj that will make Oregon roads the pride of the Pacific Coast in 191"? "What town or city lu Oregon Is paving its streets and paying for them by direct taxation? There is none. Street improvements nre paid hy using the community's credit, that Is. hy issuing bonds. Why shouldn't the state pay for Its roads In the same manner? M uclt Work Ahead. "With Mrltish Columbia spending $lt;.iiiio,0Ht before 19 1 A. with Wash ington spending f -' 1 .000.000 and California ' 0,000, 000. cannot the state of Oregon well afford to spend $10,(100,000 besides the $."000,000 that will be spent hy the counties? This week the matter will be de cided by the Legislature at Salem. "Tho Pacific Highway Association much trouble and expense It has been Is entering upon the most Important to get you to join the association, year of Its exlstonce. With all of Just multiply that by the many thou the money that Is to be expended sands of appeals that have been made everywhere, from British Columbia by the vice president during the last to tho Mexican line, the association four months and you will realize that will be kept busy looking after the unless a few are to put up all the Pacific Highway signs and keeping money reuuired. each member must the automobile public informed as take some Interest In the life of the h gents. to me nest routes to get ty those, sections that are being reconstructed.!
