VANCOUVER. Wash.. Feb. M.CS pe
dal.) At the Council meeting last night
the Washington-Oregon Corporation
asked for three uniform franchises to
run 60 years for gas. water and an elec
trlc light and railway line. This request
was made of the city that the com
pany may issue bonds to the extent of
1500.000 for Improvement of their plant.
The Mount Hood Railway Company,
too, is seeking entrance to Vancouver
and to this end ex-Senator Fulton, of
Portland, spoke for the road. The City
Attorney replied that the city should
favor a 16-year franchise if any is
granted, as this hi the length of time
which the Portland Railway. Light A
Power Company's franchise still runs.

For the purpose of securing an opinion
as to the legality gnd effect of the four
good roads bills the special committee
p pointed at the meeting of the Oregon
State Good Roads Association on Mon-
ny night decided yesterday at noon to
refer the entire mattor to Attorneys
W. C. Bristol and J. M. Cole. They are
prepare opinions which will be sub

Thursday at 1 P. M. In the Commercial

At the meeting of the committee yes
terday Dr. Andrew C Smith, president
f the association. Judge Webster, C. F.
Prall, J. M. Cole and W. C. Bristol were
in attendance. Opinions were freely ex
pressed as to the effect of the four
measures and the consensus of opinion
was the same ss at the meeting of tho
association on Monday night that the
Governor be requested to veto the state
aid bill providing for the expenditure
of $340,000 of state money for road
building.
"We are not happy by any manner of
means." said Dr. Smith, "concerning tho
passage of the bills. They are warped,
interlined and mixed up so that we do
not know what their effect will be. One
bill provides that the grade of all the
roads etate-aided shall be determined
by the State Engineer. Inasmuch as h
Is a water gauge r I am inclined to think
that it is a little out of his line. But
we will know what to do when we get
the report of the lawyers."

Lewis River Concern Gets Contract.
All Will Be I'scd on Lines in
Eastern Oregon.
Thirty million feet of ties were
bought yesterday by the Oregon-Wash
ington Railroad & Navigation Company
from the Lewis River Tie & Lumber
Mills Association. Deliveries will be
gin next month and will extend over a
period of Ave months. Shipment's will
all be made by rail from Kldgeneld.
Wash. '
The price at which the ties were
bought la not known, both the manu
facturers and the railroad officials re
fusing to give out the information.
Prices have ruled about $9.60, but the
Lewis River Association, which shut
down its mills some- months ago, has
declared repeatedly that none of the
mills would cut ties for less than $11,.
because they could not run at a pront
for less than that figure.
At $11 the order would amount to
330.000. so it is safe to say that at
least $300,000 is involved In the con
tract, even if the manufacturers ac
cepted less than the stipulated rate.
The ties are all to be used on the
lines of the O.-W. R. & N. In Kawtern
Oregon, some of them being destined
for the Deschutes River line.
A tie contains 42 board feet of lum
ber, so the order involves, something
more than 700,000 ties. It has been fig
ured out that the Harrlman sytem will
require abuot 9,000,000 ties for the double-tracking
enterprises recently an
nounced, besides a large quantity for
extensions and replacements, and the
placing of large orders in this terri
tory this year is anticipated.
