BUILDING ROADS Major Henry L.
FOR PfcRjMAN ENCE. Bowlby, exe
cutive officer of the Pacific Highway
. Commission
Association, has just issued a bulle
tin that is replete with interesting
information about the roads of Ore
gon. In prefacing his tabulation, Ma
jor Bowlby refers to the work of the
legislature. "Three months ago," he
observed, "we lived in anticipation of
the beneficient laws we considered to
be the most essential for good roads.
Now, we can set ourselves to accom
plishing the most possible under our
laws as they are." The executive
head of the Highway Association
says:
"A great step upward has been tak
en in the creation of the State High
way Department in Oregon. Thi3
places Oregon in the list of those
progressive states of the Union which
have taken up the development of
their roads in a scientific manner.
The State Highway Engineer will be
at the service of all of the County
Courts that may desire to ask for
his advice and assistance. The ser
vices of such an officer will be found
of great value to counties in obtain
ing unbiased and efficient engineer
ing advice on all of their local road
matters. The passage of the County
Road-Bond Enabling Act is the hope
of all good road enthusiasts for the
completion of a large amount of road
construction along permanent lines'
during the next two years. All money
; raised by bonds for road purposes
must be spent along permanent lines.
If this is not done trouble will follow
when the results of the expenditure
are gone and the people are forced
to continue to pay for the bonds. The
realization of our dream for a pas
sable road to California by 1915
5 turns upon the efforts put forth by
the counties through which the high
way passes during the years of 1913
and 1914."
The tables prepared by Major
Bowlby show that Clackamas County
spent on roads and bridges in" 1912
$219,065.25. In 1911 this county
spent $227,830.95. In 1910 the expen
diture was $160,450.59, and in 1909
$106,702.02, a total of $714,048.81 in
the last four years, which is 6.89 per
cent of the total sum expended in the
state. With the exception of Klamath
" County, there was expended on roads
and bridges in Oregon in the last
four years $10,358,793.63.

Whole American Public Is
Wild With Spending .
By JAMES J. HILL. Railroad Builder of the Northwest
HE invention of money
but the invention of credit was a greater one. The world
deals ever more largely with credit It is the MOTIVE
POWER OF CURRENT ENTERPRISE.
Contract or expand credit unduly or improperly and the effects
may be incomparably WORSE THAN THOSE OF THE WILD
EST EXPERIMENTS IN CURRENCY TINKERING that the
world has ever seen. No cause has been more prolific of misfortune.
THE WHOLE AMERICAN PUBLIC IS WILD WITH SPENDING.
PUBLIC ECONOMY IS A LOST ART. A BILL THAT CARRIES OR
REQUIRES AN APPROPRIATION NEEDS LITTLE ELSE TO COMMEND
IT TO ANY LEGISLATIVE BODY.

Opposite Court House
Under the new bonding act, Clack
amas County may raise $568,113 for
road purposes, or .two per cent of the
assessed valuation of $28,405,640.
The interest at six pef cent on a
maximum bond issue would amount
to $34,086.78, and a levy of 1.20 mills'
would be required to pay the inter-1
est. The estimated amount for roads !
and bridges in 1913 is $220,000, and
the approximate amount left for or
dinary roads, after subtracting the
interest on bonds is $186,000.
Oregon is entering upon a new era
in road construction. While millions
of dollars have been squandered in
constructing temporary roads, the i
authorities in the various counties
are waking up to the fact that it is
economy to build less mileage and to
do it well.
INFORMATION IS In the Morning
NOT FORTHCOMING. . Enterprise of
today appears a communication from
R. A. Troosman, who seconds the re
quest of this newspaper, made March
27, that the directors of the Oregon
City Library Association issue to the
patrons of the library a statement
covering the reasons for the resigna
tion of Miss Frances Louise Holmes,
whose connection with the library
association was so suddenly and un
expectedly severed. The Enterprise
joins with Mr. Troosman in his re
quest. The explanation is due to the
interested public who support the in
stitution, and although a meeting of
the association was held last night,
no attention has been paid to the
courteous request of The Enterprise
for a statement. The people of Ore
gon City want to know why Miss
Holmes resigned.
IS
"CARTED" TO BASTILE
So drunk that he did not know his
name and unable to stand up, a Mex
ican was arrested Thursday by
Chief of Police Shaw on Fourteenth
and Washington Streets. When found,
the man was lying on a heap on the
sidewalk. The chief found that the
man could not walk to the jail, so
called a dray. In this manner the
man was taken through Main Street.
His feet were hanging out of the back
of the dray and considerable excite
ment was caused. The man had been
reported to the Chief about 1:30 in
the afternoon as being in an intoxicat
ed condition. Mr. Shaw sought the
man at that time, but was unable to
find him. It is not likely that he be
came so drunk in a saloon as he had
a large flask of whisky with him.

March Fines Briugs to the City$275.25
The report of the Chief of Police
shows that .during the past month
the city has collected a total of $275.25
from his department. Of this amount
$255 was collected from prosecutions
which were paid by fines. There
were 18 such prosecutions. Thirty
eight arrests were made, all of which '
were prosecuted. Fourteen of the
prisoners served time upon the
streets, and six were given jail sen
fences. i
One .hundred and fifty-five hoboes
were cared for over night and 226
meals were served which cost the
city $53.29 One man who was ar- j
rested ran away and left $2.25 behind.
One sick man was cared for.
I
WOOL
ACM OF CONGRESS
With the news from Washington
indicating that there it at' least a
prospect for the removal of the duty j
on raw wool, interest in the market
on that commodity in the Northwest!
is growing steadily stronger. . i
That the wool tariff would be ma
terially lowered at the coming ses
sion of Congress has for some time
been a matter of comment and con
jecture, and in View of the general
uncertainty as to what might devel
op in the wool market in the course
of the next few months buyers 'have
been very much inclined to hold back
on business. As a result, at a time
when usually buyers are taking over
a good deal of the state's product on
contracts, there is very little busi
ness passing in the wool market and
practically nothing doing in the way
of contracts.
Now, with the removal of the duty
on wool at least among the possibil
ities, buyers representing local and
Eastern houses.
who have been in
the range country for some weeks
making investigations regarding the
1913 clip, are more at sea than ever
before.
