hanJling of the county roaJ fund, but a ttuJy of record and of roadt will
mn conviniie the most tkeptical that the county could receive gteater retultt
w ith the money spent.
Jud-e Anderson mitinterprett the purpose of the Enterprise in hi letter 'rh' W ha n"fr fr'"''"J tUf hti P"y "f county or found fault
printed F'riday nxirning when he ay ttatemrnn aincerning the waste in the
road fund "w ill prove a futile attempt to burdrn the taxpayert with I bond
issue for road building."
1 ne county jud it mistaken. Those who criticise ths present tyitem
w ant cxhI road and good roadt are not dependent on bond iue.
If the county court would take enough of thit road money, otherwise
niiwpent, to build five mil of PERMANENT trunk highway each year, at
the end of five years, we would have 25 milr of the best road in the valley;
in 10 years 50 mile: in 20 year, 100 mile. At thit stretch of permanent
highw ay increased, the cost of maintenanc; w ould be decreased.
L'ntil the county court ten that the ultimate solution of the road proh-l.-m
is in the construction of permanent roads, this race between wear and
irpair will continue, and the odds always w ith wear.
because 40.0X1 wx tjx-nt in strrl bridge and culvert construction lat year,
It it to be pitied that the county court does not u thit tamr policy of build
ing and buying the best in its grneral road work.
At Judge Anderson tat in hit letter, the F!nterprie due maintain that
bituminous macadam it not one whit better than the old water bound ma
cadam it replaced. Thit ttatrment it backed up by the vad experience of
California, a state with a climate much more favorable to road construction
than this. California, several years ago, laid many miles of bituminous ma
cadam roads but no more. Their failure has been thoroughly demonstrated,
The Enterprise is unchanged. This paper contends with undiminished
vigor that road building in Clackamas county is a tut between wear and
repsir and rhat under present methods there is a mighty tmall chance of repair
catching up.
T
HE t'STACADA PROGRESS in its la-r issue preaches a principle
which could be successfully carried out in many rural Clackamas
countv communities. The Progress savs:
.i t, ........
cnc oi rne teauing rural cnurcnes in this diocese averages from six to
cighr in attendance per service, with th; Sunday school in proportion. The
church property is worth from one to two thousand dollars and the support
or the church amounts to from $100 to $200 a year. Is it not time to con
sidcr a community church, w here it will cost less per capita for religious in
srruction?"
Estacada now is supporting, in a way, churches of several demoninations.
Similar to the situation in many others towns throughout the country, financ
ing these churches is a difficult problem and would be impossible if it were not
for outside aid. They are prevented from taking part in home or foreign
missionary work and their influence in their home community is not what
it should be.
The churches of a town like Estacada if united into one large religious
body, would be a power in the community, equal in work and in influence to
the churches in the larger cities. The problem of financial support would be
wived and ministers of more than average ability could be attracted.
The sight of a church with five or six persons attending a service mu't
be discouraging to the religious worker. The very fact that the services are
poorly attended lessens respect for the church in the small town.
The rest of the county will watch with interest any attempt in Estacada
to unite the churches for there are other communities ready to take the same
step.

The bureau of railway economics reports that 622,284 persons, firms or
institutions own railroad stocks having a par value of more than five billion
dollars. These holders of securities in one of the fundamental enterprises in
American activity will have hard work to convince themselves of the "pros
perity" of the country. Their share in it consists of diminished or vanished
dividends and of reduced values for their stocks. Shares in "war order" con
erns are booming, to be sure. But the real test of good times in this coun
try is to be found in railroad earnings and in railroad values.
State Senator Dimick poetically stated that if the bill passed permitting
counties to reject the school supervisor system "supervisors will have as much
chance as a paper shirt in a bear fight," it is recalled by Estacada Progress.
The bill became a law.
In spite of all the petitions circulated and work done in Clack
nmas coun-
ty by opponents of the supervisor system, it was impossible to secure enough
signatures to reject. Merit of the system is responsible for the change of
?entiment, according to County Superintendent of Schools Calavan. Ore

34 YEARS IN BUSINESS
, , ., f
LACKAMAS COUNTY has been offered a rare opportunity. Hie
Worswick company it willing to lay an aphaltic concrete road, lo
feet wide, for $1 a yard. This offer meant that the company will put
down a four-inch permanent highway w ith a 10-year guarantee from Oregon
City to Gladstone for less than $12,000.
The bid is unusual in eery feature and would not be possible were it
not for the fact that the paving company already has it plant on the ground
and, moreover, is anxious to lay a section of hard surface to demonstrate its
value on country roads. . j I
The money spent this year by the county on maintenance alone would
lay in the neighborhood of 20 miles of thit high class and permanent road.
The county in the past has spent hundreds of thousands of dollars al
most millions on roads and received Kant returns. Tent of thousands have
leen spent on macadam roads and now the county court decides that they are
a failure and of only temporary value.- Tens of thousands are being spent,
now, this summer, on gravel and rock which will be pounded out of sight in
the mud when the winter comes. Next spring the roads will be in the same
condition that they were before this summer's spasm of road work began.
1 he county has spent all these thousands, and seemingly ungruJgingly, ar.
the only return has been the knowledge that macadam it no good and that
poor results have been obtained from other types of ruck road. Why not
make one honest test of hard surface?
An experiment with a permanent improvement will toon convince city
man and farmer alike that other types of roads are wasteful. With a mile
and a third of pavement connecting Oregon City and Gladstone, it will be
only a short time until trunk highways reaching out into other parts of the
county are improved.

HAVI MONOPOLY-ABROGATION
CALLID FOR.

A
1" LAST THE AMERICAN PEOPLE in all the states are facing
realities in the construction of permanent roads, and pushing the
work with courageous common sense, declares the St. Louis Globe
Democrat. Thev recognize the fact that a good road costs a good deal of
money, and that it is useless to wait for plans to shift the outlay upon some
body else. They are also convinced that well-built highways are one of the
best paying investments. Later on they will, with equal courage, look to the
necessity of keeping up good roads after they are obtained. In the past the
care of roads in this country has been a sort of comic opera performance for
which taxpayers scnt plenty of money, and in which they generally partici
pated with a few days of sham labor each year. They took an easy view of
"working the roads" because they knew it to be a fiction. When they figured
on the first cost of a thoroughly made road they gave it up as something hard
y to be hoped for before the millennium.
Nevertheless, in forty-eight states, an unprecedented activity prevails in
road building, and many counties of small population and wealth arc voting
liberal amounts to improve roads that have been waiting for grading crews
and stone crushers for a hundred years and more. 7x)ng continental lines
from east to west and north to south, are received with enthusiasm, and lateral
branches to join them multiply on all sides. As has been frequently re
marked, the Romans knew how to build roads that would last, and were not
afraid of the work and xpensc, though money was scarce and hard to bor
row 2000 years ago. A good road need not be an Appian Way, but in order
to endure it must be constructed on sound principles, and not illustrate a
penny wise and pound foolish policy. The idea must also be dismissed that
somebody outside will relieve a community from paying its full share of the
cost of permanent highways.
Road improvement in this country has ceased to be a travesty, a pinch-
heck system of how not to do it. This change will usher in one of the best
and steadiest dividend payers.
The director of the mint (Democrat, of course) sees prosperity at hand.
He finds proof of it in an unexampled demand for subsidiary silver coins.
This demand, he says, "coming, of course, through the banks, originated with
the manufactures and other employers of labor, who want the coin to uzt in
their payrolls." This is typical of the general run of Democratic argument.
Because manufacturers want ten-cent pieces for their payrolls, the country
is prosperous. Payrolls under Republican times called for bank notes, not
dimes.
Our consul at Yokohama answering inquiries from home respecting the
prospect of additional Japanese steamship service, in view of the abandon
ment of the Pacific by American liners, reports that, while the shipbuilding
industry is booming, the Japanese government will not grant subsidies to the
new ships. There is, indeed, no apparent reason why subsidies should be
granted any longer, considering the unexampled success of Democratic legis
lation in freeing the Japanese shipowner from American competition.
S PREDICTED SEVERAL MONTHS AGO. the fiscal vear
closed with a trade balance in favor of the United State to the
extent, of a billion dollar. While only a small per cent of thit is
due to export of commodities that are strictly designated at "munitions," yet
the records show that war order are entirely responsible for the change from
an adverse to a favorable trade balance, Many articlrt which go into the
manufacture of arms and ammunition are not shown in the records as "inn
nitions." Nor are rillr and powdrr and bullet the only rtsrntial of the
maintenance of an armv and the activity of war operation. Eoo.l, horses
clothing, hospital supplies, drugs, Ixxitj and short, automobiles, harness, sad
dies, and hundreds of other article of minor importance, go to make up the
essentials of war equipment.
It is perfectly clear, therefore, that while the Department of Commero
it technically correct in saying that the immrnse trade balanr? i not due to
orders for "munitions," yet it would lie absolutely incorrect to diaw the in
ferenre from that statement that the trade balance is not due to war order
The fact is that for the fiscal year ending in June, 1913, when Republican
jaws were still in effect, the trade balance was in our favor to the amount
of $652,000,000. That was ut a time of normal business, whrn we bad no
"war orders" to swell our exports and no war embargo to cut off our imports,
But from the date of the enactment of the Underwood tariff law, there
was a steady decline in our monthly trade balance until April, 1914, when
the balance was against us. The balance of trade remained against th
United States until September, 1914, by which time the war orders had be
come sufficient to turn the balance In our favor. A glance at the figures for
four months, beginning with September, 1914, shows conclusively the effect
of the war in building up a favorable trade balance:
September, 1914 $ 16,341,722
October, 1914. 56,630,650
November, 1914 79,411,271
December, 1914 - 130,976,013
Nobody contends that the favorable balance is due to sale of "munitions"
alone. But it is asserted, and the facts conclusively prove that Republican
laws gave us a favorable trade balance which Democratic legislation turned
into an adverse balance until the European war came to the relief of an m
dustrial condition that was little short of paralysis.
If rifles and powder and bullets were the only things necessary to con
duct a war, the trade balance would still be against the United States, but.
as remarked by an eminent military leader, every army marches on its stomach
and food stuffs are the first essentials of an efficient army. The correctness
of that statement is confirmed by the records which show that exports of
food stuffs have been the chief factor in changing the balance of trade to one
in favor of the United States.
While Secretary Rcdficld and the others arc exulting over the high trade
balance growing out of the "war orders" boom, it may be unkind to remind
them that the number of business failures reported in this country during the
past six months was the largest on record for a similar period and the total
liabilities were close to a record figure also. The record of failures for June
was the worst ever made in a single month. There is great prosperity at
Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, and at other points where "war orders" are con
centrated ; and it is a great pity that wt do not all own large blocks Bethlehem
stock. But, while war factories prosper because of European conditions
with which we have nothing to do, other enterprises have slackened or suf
fered disaster because of policies put into operation by a Democratic congress
urged on by a Democratic president.
The postmaster general appears to have assumed the role of promoter of
divorce. At any rate the opponents of divorce so interpret an announcement
of a competitive examination for places in the postal service which states
hat a married woman cannot go upon the eligible list, after passing the ex
amination, unless she first obtains a decree of divorce. For some time mar
ried women have not been permitted on the eligible list, but the rule today
bars out even those who have left their husbands or whose husbands have lef
them. The mere severance of diplomatic and residential relations means
nothing to Mr. Burleson. lie wants an actual divorce. This will prove a
good deal of hardship to women whose religious scruples do not admit them
to the divorce courts, and also to the women of South Carolina, where the
laws dd not sanction divorce.
