ROAD BUILDERS TO
MKETIME COUNT
Practical Talks, but No Idle
Oratory to Be Rule of
Conference.
WILL CONCLUDE IN DAY
Session Tonight May Be Necessary
to Complete Plan or Organiza
tion, in Which All Counties
i Will Probably Unite.
Oratory will be obliged to make way
for a definite business programme at to
day's conference of the practical road
builders of the state. This was assured
yesterday by the sentiment of the large
number of delegates that had arrived In
the city. It was altogether apparent
from the many expressions heard that
the delegates mean business and do not
propose to tolerate any long-winded
speeches. For the most part the confer
ence will consist of men experienced In
substantial road building; the others have
come to learn something about the sub
ject. For that reason only practical
talks by competent speakers will be ex
pected and even these will be cut short
since the conference will be In session
practically one day and a great deal of
, work is to be transacted.
This conference of good roads advo
cates, called by the Oregon Development
League, will assemble In the rooms of
the Portland Commercial Club at 10
' o'clock this morning. The meeting will
t be called to order by C. W. Hodson.
: president of the Commercial Club, who
1 mill deliver an address of welcome and
Introduce County Judge L. R. Webster,
of this city, as chairman. Judge Webster
! will outline in a brief way the importance
of some organized effort towards accom
plishing the construction of good roads
In every county of the state under the
direction and supervision of competent
authority. The subject will then be sub-
m it ted for general discussion.
Attendance to Reach 200.
Prominent among the delegates will be
the County Judge and ' County Commis
sioners of several of the counties of the
state. Interested representatives from
the commercial organisations of many of
the cities are either here or will arrive
this morning s that the attendance will
probably reach SX. Never before In the
history of the state has the subject of
good roads received greater agitation and
never before has public Interest been
aroused so thoroughly in the need for
devising some centralized organization
for conducting this improvement.
Recognizing In the project a subject of
state-wide interest, practically every In
dustry of the state will be represented In
the conference. State Dairy and Food
Commissioner Bailey, of the dairy Inter
ests, and W. K. Newell, of Dilley, presi
dent of the State Board of Horticulture,
have Interested themselves actively In
assisting Tom Richardson and the other
officers of the Development eLague and
the Commercial Club to complete all nec
essary arrangements for the conference.
Best Work at Least Cost.
As has been intimated the conference by
no means will be a talkfest. It Is gen
erally understood that the meeting will
arrange for the employment of a good
roads commissioner. The principal thing
to be done is to outline some programme
by which the best results can be obtained
In road building throughout the state at
a minimum of cost to taxpayers. When
these derails have been arranged, the
conference will select some representative
to assume charge, consult with the offi
cials of the various counties and have
general supervision of the road building.
For this place there' are two candidates,
John H. Scott, ex-County Judge, of
Marlon County, and president of the Ore
gon Good Roads Association, and Lionel
R. Webster, County Judge of Multno
mah County.
Another important matter to come be
fore the conference will be the drafting of
a state road law to be presented to the
State Legislature next Winter. Many
of the delegates favor some plan by
which an annual appropriation shall be
made by the state to assist and en
courage the different counties in the Im
provement of their highways along the
' lines approved by today's conference.
May Favor Stute Funds.
Some of the delegates would have the
state make an appropriation of 110.000 to
each county for this purpose but they in
sist ttiat any financial aid from the state
should be available only when the county
appropriated an ciual amount to be ex
pended in the same improvement.
An effort will b? made to conclude the
work of the conference today, even If
It becomes necessary to hold a session to
night. Arrangements have been made for
securing a number of automobiles to
morrow morning when the visiting
County Judces and Commissioners will
be taken to the Kelly Butte plant for an
Inspection of this property. They will
afterwards be driven over some of Mult
nomah County's excellent roads which
are a monument to intelligent and scien
tific road construction.
Automobile Club Represented.
Among the many clubs that will be
represented at the good roads confer
ence today Is the Portland Automobile
Club. The Interest of this organiza
tion In any movement that has for Its
object the Improvement . of the roads
of the state is too great to allow the
members to feel slighted from the fact
tiiat It was not formally invited to send
delegates to today's gathering. At a
meeting last night, the members of the
club decided to attend the conference
in a body, and in every possible wajP
assist the movement that has been
started. This club favoie the election
of John H. Scott, of Salem, as the offi
cial head of the good roads campaign,
and will recommend Judge C. J. Tren
chard. of Astoria, for second choice,
should the work require the servlCM of
two men.

n r .v. id iKiia -ih toat nlirht voted to recommend to the proper city authori
ties the revocation of the automobile license held by J. H. (Lucky Jack) Peterson. In taking this action the
trustees charged that the manner In which Peterson drove his car Sunday was a menace to the ' Pbllc
safety." The club also decided to co-operate with the authorities and insist on the rigid enforcement of
the law requiring all vehicles and automobiles to keep on the right side of streets and to discontinue
the abrupt cutting of street corners In making turns from one street into another.
The action of the club trustees in recommending the revocation of Petersons license resulted from
the collision between Peterson's Packard car and Jack Harrington's Thomas Flyer. Sunday, an Investi
gation of the facts satisfying the olub that Peterson was to blame. The accident occurred at Seventcvn 11
and Northrup streets and the driver of the Thomas car was severely Injured. With Peterson were John
Huber and Emil Hedberg. and both Peterson and Hedberg were injured. Peterson and Hedberg were
thrown beneath the car. Peterson declared yesterday that erroneous statements have been published
with reference to the collision. .
"The account of the accident In this morning's paper was false," said Mr. Peterson. It was what the
other people say. but they gave only their side, and It wasn't correct. We were going south on Seventeenth
street and I was driving close to the curb with a low gear. The other fellow skidded 52 feet before we
collided and he never changed his course an inch. His car struck us on the rear wheel, turning our car
over and throwing one of the occupants of my car 40 feet. Myself and another man were beneath the
car when It was turned over. I am not a reckless driver, and those who Call me a reckless driver, reck
less Investor or anything else reckless don't know what they are talking about. I always have a reason
for what I do, and was not driving- recklessly yesterday."

son himself being the president. It is
alleged that he obtained 49.997 shares of
50,000 shares Issued, and that he now has
29.000 shares.
It Is also declared that C. R. Mallory,
vice-president of the company, F. M. Col
well, secretary and treasurer, and George
Curtis, who incorporated with Watson,
took only one share each, paying $1
apiece. After incorporation 60.000 shares
remained, which were held as treasury
stock, for sale at 25 cents a share, the
proceeds to be used In putting down oil
wells. The complaint alleges, however,
that up to the present time only 100
shares of this stock have been sold.
It appears from the allegations that
Watson held a lease to 320 acres of land
in Polk County, obtained from Ben F.
Whlteacre. The lease ran for 10 years.
Watson sublet it to the company in re
turn for 49.997 shares of stock. Fairly
launched, with its $3 in cash, plus $25
from the sale of the "treasury stock" the
corporation proceeded to make a contract
with Watson to put down a well In four
months. It would appear that White
acre's contract, which was sublet to the
corporation called for the completion of
the well In this time, and the putting
down of 20 others at intervals of 90 days
each.
Whether the expectations of oil did not
materialize or the funds gave out. does
not appear, except that it Is stated that
Watson drilled 200 feet. It Is alleged that
he quit work on the well June 19, and
that the corporation could not, before
July 25, have other drilling machinery in
stalled, and finish the well. Watson Is
said to have gone to Whlteacre and sur
rendered the original lease.
The 49.900 shares or unsold stock are
said to be worth $12,475, Watson's 26,000
shares are alleged to be worth $6500 and
the lease which was surrendered is said
to be worth $1500 a year, or $15,000.

It appears that Brennen is serving a term

JACKSOX REID SOT IX COURT
Boy Who Killed DeMars Will Be
Tried in September. .
Contrary to expectations Jackson Reid.
the bov "who murdered George F. De
Mars at the Exposition grounds, did not
appear before Judge Gantenbein for his
preliminary hearing yesterday morning.
As his attorneys have demanded a jury
trial the case will not come up until the
September term of court, when the first
Jury panel will be drawn. The Jury will
consist of six men. and will be the second
which has been called in Juvenile Court
cases.
While awaiting trial young-Reid may
remain at home, as he has been released
on $5000 ball furnished by his relatives
and friends. The six men will not try
him for murder, as this charge cannot at
first be brought against him. They will
simply determine whether or not he is
a delinquent child. Should they decide
that he is such, it will be In the discre-

tion of Judge Gantenbein to send him to
the Reform School or remand him to the
Circuit Court for trial like an ordinary
criminal.
Should he do the latter the boy can be
charged with murder in the first degree,
and in case of conviction may be hanged.
In case of a verdict of murder in the
second degree or manslaughter he would
be sentenced to the Reform School, as the
Juvenile Court act of 1907 forbids the au
thorities to keep a child imprisoned with
adults.
FCXDS ESCHEAT TO STATE
Estate of William Studers, Who Left
Xo Heirs, Sold by Sherirf.
The property of William Studers, who
died leaving no will and no heirs as
far as known, was sold by Deputy
Sheriff Hollingsworth from the Court
house steps yesterday morning for
$15,325. This money will go Into the
state funds, as the property nw es
cheated to the state. The land was
sold to E. H. Kelly. He will oe obliged
to pay $358.18 due for street improve
ments, and $53.60 due for taxes. The
property consists of 53.9 acres near
Gresham. The price paid is $284 an
acre. The first bid on the tract as a
whole fas $11,000.
The property was first put up at auc
tion in three tracts of 40 39-100 acres,
10 "acres and 3 acres. It brought
$10,100 In this form, 50 39-100 acres
going to S. S. Thompson for $9750, and
acres to Rev. A. Thompson for $525.
The latter piece was that portion south
of the Powell Valley road. A Mr. Lam

some time It waa a question whether
he or Kellv would take the property.

to pay the bill. This is a fact which
did not fully impress itself upon the
city officials until yesterday, at which
time Councilman Rushlight, president
of the CouncTf and chairman of the
Ways and Means Committee, visited
Mayor Lane and called the latter's offi
cial attention to it. What will be done
Is unknown, but it is certain that the
debt cannot be paid this year, as the
funds, are not at hand.
After learning of the fact that the
municipality is ordered to pay the Wa
ter Board- $50,000 annually after 1907.
Mayor Lane said he believed that some
way can be arranged whereby the
money can be used in such manner as
to ease the financial burdens of the
Council, in the purchase of various
things that will be required. The item
of lire hydrants, which aggregates an
immense sum, he said, probably can be
lifted from the Council to the Water
Board, after payment of this $50,000
and the inauguration of the new plan
of district assessment for the laying of
water mains, the cost of which is to be
levied against the property-owners.
"The city can use 2000 fire hydrants,"
declared Mayor Lane, "and so far as I
am concerned, I would be willing, under
the new system, for the Water Board
to purchase, these."
That a large amount of money is need
ed for hydrants will be seen when it Is
known that 500 of them cost $30,000. The
City Council ordered this number three
weeks ago. Fire Chief Campbell has
been calling loudly for hydrants for 18
montha and people in the outlying dis
tricts and some of the downtown dis
tricts have been protesting against the
inactivity of the city officials In this re
gard. The embarrassing situation that is de
veloped by the clause in- the water bond
issue Is caused by the depleted condition
of the general fund. It is extremely low
because the O. R. & N. Company re
fuses to pay In $73,000 of taxes assessed
against it. This sum was figured In
with the annual income at the first of
the year, and leaves the city general fund
In poor condition. There are other minor
decreases In the fund, and as the ex
penses have been more instead of less
than figured, the pttuation Is more or
less serious. It is known, however, that,
with great care, everything will be met
except the new debt to the Water Board.
