Snmn ninv bollove that the South
Fork project is nothing more than dig
ging a ditch 26 miles over a route enro
fnliv surveyed, laying a pipe and fill
ing In the ditch. Such is not the case.
Few realize that dnm-bulldlng, tun
nollng and even road-building enter in
to the nroioct. yet thoso are the prob
lems thnt confront Engineer Rands
and Contractor Moffntt at the very
outset of hoir work.
The transportation oi me uig sieei
nlnna. 18 inches in diameter, up the
canyon of the Clackamas river, five
miles from the end of a wagon road
or railroad track and then several
thousand feet up the canyon or the
Smith Fork of the Clackamas in a
country that does not even boast of a
trail, is one of the big problems of the
work. On the west Bide of the Clack
amas, tho Portland Railway, Light &
Power company now owns a partial
ly completed trail but Engineer Rands
has reached the conclusion that this
trail does not solve the transportation
problem and that it will be cheaper
and quicker to build a new road up the
south bank.

MAN TAKES HIS LIFE
PORTLAND, Ore., Mar. f. Ralph
William Feeney, aged B9, engaged in
the insurance business at 306 Com
mercial building, committed suicide
by taking strychnine in the garage at
hla home, 1481 East Burnslde street,
this morning.
Mrs. Feeney found her husband in
convulsions, seated in the automobile
at 7:30 o'clock. He said to her: "I
have ended it all."
The man was removed to his home
and medical aid was summoned. Death
ensued, however, In 30 minutes.
The act is believed to have been
committed while Mr. Feeney was la
boring under a mental strain as a re
sult of the fact that the companies
which he represented had gone into
the hands of a receiver.

for central Oregon.

Road Engineer Martin, of Umatilla
county, made an Interesting talk on
road construction In his county, where
conditions are favorable to the con
struction of water bound macadam
roads, many miles of which have boon
built at a cost of about J2000 a mile.
He explained the method of construc
tion, and answered a volley of ques
tions that were fired at him from
members of the Live Wires who are
Interested in good roads. Umatilla
county has a rain fall of about 14
Inches, and rock and gravel are plenti
ful, which makes road-building less
costly than in the Willamette valley.
J. Dean nutlcr. an Oregon City at

ated considerable Interest by his talk
on the discrimination in favor of Port
land as against Oregon City by the
Portland Railway, Light & Power Co.
Mr Mntler sntd Oak Grove Is farther
nwnv from Portland than from Ore
gon City, and yet the railway company
makes a cash fare from Oak urove
to Portland of ten cents, with n com
mutation rate of 8tt cents, while the
fare from Oak Grove to Oregon City
Is 15 cents, and no commutation rates
are allowed. Mr. Rutler pointed out
that the business Interests of Oregon
City suffered because of this discrimi.
nation, and it is expected that the
matter will be taken up by the Live
Wires at their next meeting.

The Morning Enterprise Shower of
Gold campaign has closed In a blaze
of glory, the winning candidates are
still receiving the congratulations of
their friends, and will for day lo
come, and the toning candidates, while
naturally a bit disappointed are not
disheartened.
The question, "When will there be
another 'shower' so that we can apply
the knowledge we have gained in tho
present one?" is perhapa the best il
lustration of the enthusiasm which
has grown out of the battle of ballots.
Everywhere since the commence
ment of the campaign has the greatest
interest been displayed, and the crowd
around the Enterprise office until a
late hour Saturday night bore wit
ness to the anxiety on the part of
ihe nn e vould be.
Promptly at 9 o'clock the Judges
announced the box closed and voting
all over, immediately after which they
started tha count which was to de
termine the winnters in this great
campaign. As the judges commenced
their count an air of strained expect
ancy hung over the throng in the busy
office.
Gradually it became apparent that
the race was narrowing down to those
who eventually won, but it was not
until the announcement of the win
ners at the close of the count, that
hope left the breasts of the other can
didates and their friends.
When one of the judges announced
the winners' names all restraint was
thrown to the winds and pandemo
nium broke loose. The winners of tha
prizes seemed scarcely able to real
ize their good fortune, and it was some
time after the final announcement
thnt they could make up their minds
that the various golden rewards were
really theirs.
Notwithstanding the lateness of the
hour a large number of the friends of
the various candidates and organiza
tions had waited to hear the returns
and when It was all over there was a
mad scramble to reach various homes
and an entire battery of "jitneys"
would have had more to do than they
could have handled conveniently, but
nearly an hour elapsed before the luct
of the flushed but triumphant victors
left the office.
The candidates, one and all, both
winners and losers, worked hard. Of
course it was out of the question tor
all to win, much as the management
of the Enterprise would have wished
it, and those who did not win have the
satisfaction of having put up one race
in a thousand, and lose out not be
cause they were lacking In hustling
ability, but because others had more
votes. The management of the Enter
prise and the Shower of Gold depart
ment extend their hearty congratula
tions to the winners and trust that
they will enjoy a full measure of pleas
ure from the prizes ttiey have so con
scientiously won. To those who
through the fortunes of war did not
win, this paper extends its heartiest
thanks for the energetic effort they
have put forth and trusts that at some
future time the Enterprise will launch
a campaign where these contestants
will be among the capital prize win
ners. The best of good feeling has pre
vailed during the entire period of the
"shower" and it was not unusual to
see competing candidates out arm in
arm enlisting the support of their mu
tual friends. To the Shower of Gold
