CtulalM Am. rMtt
-I am In favor of tho creation of a

county officials would avail themselves
, of th. opportunity to obtain assistance

' I am la favor of th. passage of th. en

ronatltutlonal amendment permitting
counties to Issue bonds tor ro.d pur
pose, and faTor alao th. proposed law
. providing for convict labor on th.
, roada" . . . .
CommUaloa.r Hart agreed with inf
Cleeton'. Tie we. but Mr. Ughtner d.
i clared himself against th. creation of
.Late bureau of Information on road
subject, expressing th. fear that It
mlxht fall Into th. hands of politician,
and thus become a hoary aspen, and
of no practical use to tb. people.
Neither doea Mr. Ughtner faTor th.
county bonding act. expressing- himself
-a tn favor of "living within tha rim
of our shilling:.'
All thre. were agreed that Multno
mah County ahould not be bonded for
road purposes, tb. road, already being;
In good condition and th. annual ap
propriation of sight-tenth, of a mill,
wblch this year wlir reeult In th. rais
ins; of approximately $260,000. being
aurflclent to keep them In repair and
but Id such new ones a. are necessary.
Speaking; forbtmself and associates.
In tb. presence of hi. associate, and
with their full approval. Mr. Lightn.r
discussed th. proposed state bond Issue
question aa a dtlxen and official of
Multnomah Connty. He aald:
"Let us consider section of th act.
which. If passed, would create th. state
highway fund. This section pro-rides
that 2 per cant of th. money, or 15.
000.000. la to be divided among; th.
counties In proportion to their areas.
Bear In mind that the people of Mult
nomah County pay a third of th atat.
taxea Then tak. Into consideration
th. area of this county as compared
with th. area, of such counties as Har
ney. Lake, Klamath. Crook and Mal
heur, and how much of thl. money
would Multnomah rtr I do not know
ust how th. area, compare, but tak.
a look at th map. Our county is. I
believe, th smallest - In th atat.
I.ook as if w. would be foolish, docs
It not? Of course the argument 1. that
I'ortlaad and Multnomah County would
bo benefited Indirectly. Tb. matter
resolve. Itself into a question of
whether or not th people of Mult
nomah County consider It a good In
vestment. Other ceuttfe A lose Pre fit.
"Now let u. look at this question,
from another standpoint. Multnomah
iimtr ha. already spent millions on
lis roads and baa a aystem of wblch
lis people are proud, or at least should
be proud. Having- built our own roada
at. area, expanse are we willing; to pay
j for building thou of other counties?
r must remember that th. people of
I-ortland hav to pay for street Im-
prov.menta on a frontage basta and
! that they hav to keep up th bridge.
across th. Willamette and big county.
rtty and school organisation, and th.
: Tort of Portland. Tb. proposed road
, measure, would give each county $1
of ..at. money for .very dollar ex
pended by th. county. The people of
Multnomah County would b entitled to
'.-their share of th road money In pro
portion to th assessed valuation of
thl county as compared to th as
sessed valuation of other counties or
th state, and to get It th County
Court ' would bar to appropriate ex
travagant .urns directly. In other
words, w. would hav to spend a great
deal more money than necessary on
' our roads to get our share from th
tat. In Multnomah County we are
spending- already all th. money really
necessary on th 'roada Of course th
peopl might wish to giv. this money,
like our share of th 25 per cent al
ready referred to. to th. other coun
ties of tb state, but I do not think
so. We can afford to be liberal, but
- not ao liberal.
Th act coolers altogether too much
arbitrary power -on tb Highway Com
missioner. Suppose th office should
fall Into the hands of an Incompetent
politician. Look at this subject aa I
will. I can se only possible Indirect
benefit to the peopl of Multnomah
('ounty In return for th expenditure
by them of nearly $17,000,000. Our
road superintendent. Mr. Chapman. Is
an expert, and Multnomah County ha.
rro need of tb services of a atat high
way commissioner. Our county iur
veyorr hav always been competent
' also." Just think what we could d by
) spending- our $17,000,000 directly on
our own roada

from condemning a right of way
across th granted landa of the Oregon
at California Railroad Company, be
tween Enfant and Florence on th 81

cision was mad today was argued
January 29.
Suit to which this demurrr was a

sections of rlrht of way on th rail
road, now building- between Eugene
and Sluslaw Bay. The Wl!lmette-Fa-

was to be a friendly suit, and that th.
defendant, would confess Judgment,
asked leav to Intervene. Th case waa
dismissed from th Multnomah County
Circuit Court and sent to Lane County
for trial, where the application of the
Pacific Great Western waa granted.
Subsequently, on December 14. the
Pacific Great Western filed a suit In

th Willamette Pacific Railway from

Th Wlllamette-Psciflo demurred that

BILLS DEFECTIVE
Attorney-General Reveals Plot
to Give One Man All Pos
sible Authority.
MOVE IS UNWISE IS. ADVICE
State Official Point Ont Six Differ
ent Errors Made by Commission
Jfaroed by West $40, 000.000
to Be Spent by Executive.
BALEM. Or.. Feb. 7. (Special.) Attorney-General
Crawford today pointed
out six definite defects In the proposed
grood roads bills of the commission ap
pointed by Governor West and when
asked to express his views aa to the
bills and their effect gave out an In
terview in which he declares that th
proposed laws in a number of respects
are unwise.
One of his objections Is that therr
are four separate acta, each covering
a portion of the plan for road build
ing, when one act would be ample and
Ita provisions could b made to har
monise, "One act provides a state highway
commissioner to be appointed by the
Governor, with a salary of $6000 per
annum, and he to appoint on assist
ant." said th Attorney-General, "with
th approval of the Governor at a sal
ary of $2500 per annum, and as many
engineers, clerks, stenographers and
other assistants as the Governor and
th commissioners may desire, and
their salaries can be fixed by the Gov
ernor and commissioner and paid from
th fund, thus placing th whol mat
tec entirely In the hand, of one man,
towlt: th. Governor.
Oae-Maa Power faaa.Ufactory.
"One-man power ba. never proved
satisfactory. Another act create, a
fund of $20,000,000 to be raised on
bonds. $2,000,000 a year for 10 years,
and In addition two-thirds of all li
cense taxes on motor vehiolea This
will reduce th state's regular Income
to that extent and it must be made
up by direct taxation.
"Also th several counties of the
Mat are supposed to raise the same
amount as the state at large, which
will be . $20,000,000 and one-half th
amount of license taxes on motor ve
hicles, making- a sum total to be ex
panded under th sole supervision of
th Governor In 10 years over $40.
aaa aaa i . a m thl la unwise.
-considering the frailty of human na-
tur and tn great lempiauou n
afford to profit at th state'a ex
peps. "Another defeot appears In the pro
visions allowing a county to expend
a certain amount of money and then
draw on the state for a similar amount
and not providing- for the expenditure
of th money ao drawn. A county
oould expend Its own road money and
then reimburse Itfelf out of th money
raised from the sale of state bonds.
Word Required by Bidding-.
"Th commissioner Is -required . to
advertise for bids for road work and
then authorized to reject all bids and
do the work by day labor If he wishes
ao to do.
"The lntereat on $40,000,000 per an
num at 6 per cent la $2,000,000, to be
raised from th taxpayera annually in
excesa of which they are now paying,
which is more than Is now raised for
all purposes. The effect of the several
acts, briefly stated, la:
First To create a fund of over
$40,000,000 In 10 years, to be expended
entirely aa the Governor and hla ap
polnteea may direct, with unlimited
power to appoint commissioners, as

NORMAL SCHOOL IS ACTIVE
Tboroughnesa Keynote In Training
Teacher at Monmouth Institution.
MONMOUTH. Or., Feb. 7. (Special.)
The midyear graduating- exercises of
th Normal School closed Wednesday
with the commencement programme of
th class, and it Is a matter of favor
abl comment that the Normal School
baa resumed the work of training
teachers on a sound basis, with thor
oughness as the keynote. Justifying the
announcement of President- Ackerman,
at the opening- of this school last Sep
tember, after Its being- closed two
years, that the faculty would first look
to thorough work and the standard
for teacher, and let th number, come
a. the result of the work accomplished.
The baccalaureate sermon on Sunday
by Dr. H. Charles Dunsmore ha. been
commented upon most favorably a. a
finished .cholarly presentation of his
subject, "Man the Object of Dlvln Re
gard," th speaker choosing as hi. text
Job 7-17. making the special applica
tion to th work of those preparing- for
teaching.
The commencement address on behalf
of the olass was made by Miss Morri
son. Superintendent . Alderman pre
sented the diplomas and Governor West
addressed the class, with a practical
presentation of the need of an edu
cated citizenship to support the new
responslbllltlea of every voter under
the Oreg-on system which he advocated,
showing th need In this work for
preparation by every teacheT.
The board of regents were In aesalon
here today, looking- for a alt on which
to erect the new dormitory, for which
purpose the $50,000 appropriation Is
now available. A number of options on

In a study of these results It must
b remembered that from experiment,
of this kind, only on year In duration.
It is absolutely Impossible to draw any
final conclusions that can be relied
upon as a safe guide for future prac
tice. The results obtained give indica
tions to aome extent of what may be
accomplished, but until corroborated by
repeated trial, no safe conclusions aa
to the possibilities or best practices
can be drawn.
The rather poor preparations of th
ground, late planting- and the dry. sea
son makes all of th check plots un
questionably lower in yield than might
or would be obtained under normal con
ditions and treatment, without Irriga
tion. Hence, th yields obtained on, the
irrigated plots show an exaggerated
gain. On the other hand, with better
leveling and distribution of water, bet
ter planting and closer adaptation of
crop, used, irrigation probably would
give larger yields than those obtained.
The report Is authorized by H. D.
Scudder, professor of agronomy at Cor
vallls, while his assistant, W. L.
Powers, had. Immediate charge of the
experiments and compiled th table of
results.
The work In th field was dona under
direction of Hartman & Thompson,
managers of the Willamette Valley Ir
rigated Land Company. Tne canal was
commenced In the early Spring-, and
water became available tn July and
August. Had It been available earlier,
the results probably would have been
still better, as Irrigation waa badly
needed last year In June.
MINER RACES WITH TIME

SEATTLE. Wash-. Feb. 7. (Special.)
On a 1000-mile race against time,

who Is dangerously 111 at Vancouver,
B. C, R. J. Thompson, a Yukon mining
man. this morning arrived from the

the Alaska Steamship Company.
On January SS Thompson received a
telegram saying hla mother was not
expected to. live. A few hours later
he was Journeying by fast dog team
to White Horse, about 800 miles away.
From White Horse he telegraphed the
master of the Jefferson of his coming

Thompson was five daya in reaching
Skagway from Sixty Mil River, which
Is -th fastest time ever made from

by steamer or by Winter stages.
EMPLOYES' LAW x URGED
Labor Organizations Ask Strict En
forcement of Statute.
SALEM. Or, Feb. 1. (Special.) Rep
resentatives of labor organizations
have called upon Governor West, urg
ing what they deem a strict construc
tion of section 6060 of Lord's Oregon
laws, wblch provides that all employes
of the stat be allowed to work no
longer than eight hours a day. Th
statute seems to be somewhat ambig
uous and whether this applies to me
chanics and laborers who are employed
by contractors holding contract, under
the stat is a moot question.
However, Governor West probably
will recommemnd to th State Board
that this interpretation b placed In
effect. When questioned tonight as to
his attitude he said that personally ha
is In favor of such a plan and Secre
tary Olcott, when questioned, also said
he is in favor of it. While th matter
has never been put up to the Board,
It la probable that It will be adopted.
