NOT SO FAR APART LN POLICY When Once All Interests Are Made to Understand What Each Wants Savarsl Short Ad- ' - dresaea. Declaring that tbe Live Wires of tbe Commercial Club were trying to array tbe members of the county court againat. tbe country in favor of the city by the contemplated appointment of a road mauler or road engineer, J. W. Exon. a Methodist minister and a former Willamette River steamboat pilot, created a mild sensation yes terday afternoon. He was called to account by O. D. Eby, H. E. Cross and others. Mr. Eby declaring that nothing Is further from the purpose of tbe Commercial Club than to stir up strife between the city and coun try and laying stress upon the -fact; that Oregon City is continually trying to get into cloner touch with the peo ple of the rural routes. " "I hope Mr. Exon will come down here and get acquainted," said Mr. Eby, "and Ms mind will be disabused." Mr. Eby. pleaded for a system of general supervision of road and bridge construction and Indorsed the proposal to hold a meeting of the supervisors, along with others interested In the road problem of Clackamas county. The county court patiently listened to pro and con arguments on the ques tion of the appointment of a road en gineer throughout the greater part of Krlduy afternoon, but did not indicate what ita decision would be. Mr. Exon and J. W. Roots, Ibe' Boring supervis or, antagonized the proposal to name a general supervisor, Roots stating It would be unpopular and advancing tbe (dea that an engineer would make mis takes, as well as the supervisors. Mr. Exon presented a petition asking the court not to appoint road engineer. These are some of the petitions that were circulated through the agency of George Oglesby, the Marks Prairie supervisor, with the knowledge of County Commltwioners Blair and Mat toofl. ' - Hi E. Cross, chairman of the Live Wire road committee, read tbe law authorizing tbe appointment of a road engineer and argued in favor of the plan. He Bald he was not in sympa thy with the road bills now In the legislature and insisted that the State has all the law necessary. "Each supervisor haa his own plan," said Mr. Cross, and with 65 supervis ors, we probably have 55 different plans. How many1 good supervisors have you got in Clackamas county? Judge Ryan told me there were five out of the 35 while he was on the bench. In four years we have expend ed $489,000, outside of the money rained by special taxes. Last year we paid 51 supervisors more than $1,000 per month. No work except repairs should be done In tho winter months, but for the five winter months we have spent $130,428 SI in the last four years, Lst month tho road money disbursed amounted to $2742.50. Next year tbe county plans to spend $125, 000 on the roads, and pay off $48,000 road Indebtedness, and the court Is practically at the mercy of 66 men. The lack of definite plans result in a waste of one-third of all the money spent Mr. - Roota explained that the ex pense Incurred in January of this year was mainly by the old supervisors, and not by tbe Incoming men. Mr Exon stated there was no class of men In the State who worked harder than the Clackamas road supervisors. "One engineer cannot possibly over see the work In 65 districts," said Mr. Exon. "Three men might do it, but It would be costly and it is better to put the money on the roads. Each community is Bolving Its own road problem. If a roadmaster la appoint ed, the districts will refuse to vote special taxes. I believe the court should be held responsible. The sup ervisors are generally a competent body of men who work economically. Milt Marshall, at Garfield, makes crushed rock road for $1500 a mile. You people here In Oregon City are giving the country people the wrong Impression, and they have been Ig nored about this meeting. You ought to go about this In an educational way. All we expect from the court la our own proportion of the road taxes. You are putting the country people against the town. When there was a read en gineer, all the work was done around Oregon City." Frank Jaggar, for many years sup ervisor at Beaver Creek, talked on road eonatructlon and went Into detail. He aald he had been a resident of the county 88 years, and had lived on a road where It waa not possible to haul more than 10 Backs of potatoes In a load. "The Molalla road waa then an In dian trail," said Mr. Jacgar. "Road making In Clackamaa county la an ex pensive Job. In seme places a road master would be at Httle use and In other placea he eowld certainly be of ranch uae. Road soaking has become a aeleaea, and tee work of David Klaaiaardt the forxoer rood engineer, will show aa long as the county atanda.

On some roads It costs the far mer 11 rents per mile per ton to get his produce to market." "Anyone who looks at this matter seriously would favor the appointment of a road master," declared Mr. Mof fatt, who said the Oregon City sus pension bridge Is now In a dangerous condition, and remarked that It seemed to be more necessary to get a politician than aa euxlur in order to harmonize tbe conflicting elements.

Also, if a laborer's wife' may be restrained from asking him to milk tbe cow and do other heavy tasks so wearying to the "poor, sallow, sad-eyed, hopeless white slave," as Mr. Dlmlck so flatteringly describes him. " The eight-hour laborer's wife, of course, merely has to get up at five or half past, cook breakfast, put up the luncheons, get the older children off to school, clean up the house. wash,, bake, sew, get supper, wash dishes, put the children to bed, and then crawl out half a dozen times In tile plght to give little Jimmle his cough medicine and cover up the baby. The wife of tbe eight-hour la borer is somewhat sallow and sad and hopeless, herself, and begs that Mr.' Dlmlck will keep her In mind the next time he feels moved to play politics. Respectfully, MRS.
