The end of the ttr Is seven miles from shore and as there are two tracks for Its entire length, the rails In the yard, switches and spurs Included, bring the entire length of the railway system to 2t miles. It Is estimated that the cars In use represent a value of $200,000 and with other equipment the appraisement Is Increased to $300,000. On the outer end of the Jetty more rock will be dumped next season, as three layers of the material must be placed before a permanent foundation la reached, but the principal work will end this year. liesldes all preliminary operations will be completed for the north Jetty, docks hullt. quarters and shops arranged and tracks laid.

Albert, of Salem, Compares, In Communication, Work of Har mony Committee and of State-Wide Body. SALEM, Or, April 1. (T the Edi tor.) In response to the. request of the so-called Harmony Highway Commit tee "to the citizens of Oregon to criti cise, comment upon and suggest Im provements In the four road bills pro duced by the majority of Its members." permit me first to explain the present status of Oregon good roads legislation. The Legislature at Its last session passed good road laws creating a High way Commission, providing an annual appropriation of 1310,000. to be divided pro rata among the 34 counties of the state, each county being required to provide a like amount In order to make the state appropriation available. After the Legislature had adjourned these laws were vetoed by the Governor, after the urgent demand of the so-called Ore gon Good Roads Association. Acta Are Independent. These bills are now pending and will come before the next session of the Legislature upon the question. "Shall the bills become laws notwithstanding the veto of the Governor?" Last Sum mer the Governor, upon his own Ini tiative, called a state-wide convention to prepare proposed good-road laws, which body was composed of one dele gate from each county, with four addi tional delegates from Multnomah Coun ty. This convention framed six pro posed acts to be submitted at the gen eral election In November of this year, by Initiative petition, known as the highway department, state highway fund, state aid. state bonding act, amendatory to the state constitution and the county enabling act. None of these acta is interdependent, but each one stands on its own footing. While the Initiative petitions were be ing circulated to place these acts upon the ballot, two other acts were pre pared by representatives of tho State Grange. The one was for a state high way engineer, and the other a county bonding act. The Governor, fearing that a contest between these two bills snd the two corresponding bills of the State-Wide Committee might so divide the vote that neither one would get on the ballot, appointed a committee of five to reconcile. If possible, these con flicting measures, the master of the State Grange representing that body on this committee. Notwithstanding Important conces sions were made tentatively by other members of the committee, the Grsnge representative refused to concde any thing and withdrew from the committee. It waa not Intended that the appoint ment of this committee should suspend a circulation of the state-wide Initia tive petitions, upon which about 2000 names had already been secured, and the Governor so Informed me at the time, as It was by no means certain that the committee would succeed In reconciling the two Grange bills and corresponding state-wide bills. How ever, the work practically ceased on the state-wide bills In expectation of reconciliation of the conflicting bills In question. Artioa Is nrprlae. To my surprise, the remnant of this committee. Instead of reporting their failure to accomplish the work for which they were appointed, and leaving the matter In statu quo, vis., with the six state-wide bills and the two con flicting Grsnge bills In the field, pro ceeded to prepare a complete set of new bills in opposition to the state-wide bills, still further subdividing the good road vote and reducing the probabil ity of placing any good road measure on the ballot. A careful analysis of these last bills and a comparison with those of the state-wide committee shows the deter mination on the part of their framers to oppose or Ignore every material pro vision of the state-wide bills. First, the Stato-Wldo Commission, after due deliberation, decided upon 12.000,000 bonds annually for ten years, which would average about 160.000 to each county, and would build the half of 20 miles of good roads In each coun ty on the basis of J6000 a mile as the average cost. The opposing bills of this committee fix the amount at $1,000,000 annually, continued Indefi nitely, without limiting the number of Issues. Multaotnak Declared Benefited. The State-Wide Committee made the distribution of the highway fund state wide, without regard to the assessed valuation of the different counties, upon the avowed principle that good roads benefited the whole state, and the greater the congestion of wealth and property the greater the benefit, A comparison of the distribution of the state highway fund under these different acts will show that the change made by the remnant of the so-called harmony committee has been made In the direct Interest of Multnomah Coun ty and will also show why other coun ties should support the state-wide bills as well as emphasize the recent state ment of Governor West, that the coun try has paid and now pays more than Its share for the building of roads.

It will he observed that Multnomah County alone received more under the harmony bills than under the state wide bills. Notwithstanding the fact that under the stste-wldn hills the bond issue Is U.non.nnn and under the liar mny bill but $1. 000.000. Multnomah re ceives more tliau ln,000 under the Milady's Toilet Table By Mme. D'MILLE. Of all the varloua means advised for removal of superfluous hairs from face or forearms I have found delatone paste the most effective and satisfactory. Mix a little delatone witk enough water to cover the balra; apply, and after two or three minutes wipe off, and tne nairs will be gone. Home cosmetics tend to darken and discolor the skin. Never use these. If you want a true complexion beautlfier, Instantaneous in effect, yet harmless and lasting, dissolve an original pack age of mayatone in a half-pint of witch hazel and rub a little on the face, neck and arms each morning. Mayatone will not come off or show like powder and keeps the skin soft, fair and youthful looking. There always is danger of catching cold after wsshlng the head. Dry shampooing makes hair beautifully lus trous and full of life. To make sham poo powder, put a cupful of cornmeal (or four ounces of powdered orris root! In a fruit jar and mix with It an orig Inal narckage of therox. Sprinkle on head and brush out. This brushes out easily and takes with it all dirt, dan druff and ejtcess oil. As a result of backward Spring and unseasonable weather thousands suffer from colds. An old-fashioned remedy is Mother's Salve. In fifty years mil lions of jars have been used for the treatment of colds in head or chest, ca tarrh and ordinary cases of sore throat, bronchitis, tonsilitis, croup, stiff neck and asthma. Adv. latter than under the former. All of the other counties receive less, a ma jority not one-third, and several not one-fourth as much as under the har mony bills as under the state-wide bills. The bonding amendment to the state constitution proposed by the harmony committee differs from that of the state-wide committee by a limitation in the former bill in the amount of in debtedness for building permanent roads to 2 per cent of the assessed valuation of all property in tne state, But for th's difference the 300 names on the Initiative penltion of the state wide bill could be added to those that might he obtained on the harmony committee bill, and thus Insure a place upon the ballot for this bill, which Is the cornerstone of the good-roads sys tem In the event all the other bills fail to get on the ballot. This limitation is absolutely unneces sary and valueless. Under the state wide bill providing for the Issue of 12.000,000 bonds, the percentage on the assessed valuation would be a little more than 11-100 of a mill, and at the end of ten years. If the 220,000,000 bonds provided for In the state-wide bills should be issued, and If the in crease In the valuation should equal that of the past ten years. It would ag gregate less than one-third of 1 per cent of the assessed valuation, or one sixth of the limit of 2 per cent pro posed In this amendment Elimination la Suggested. Agnln, under our system, our consti tutton can be amended as quickly as t law can be enacted under it. Now, why not strike out thin provision, if these laws are sought to be Initiated, and make It Identical with' the state-wide proposed law? The constitutional amendment limiting county bond issues to 2 per cent of the assessed valuation is simply a further restriction placed upon the constitutional amendment passed at the last general ele-'tlon by more than 18.000 majority, authorizing counties to incur an Indebtedness upon a majority vote at that election, letting the people decide upon the amount. This bill should have no place In good roads legislation and should be en titled: An act to prevent the building of good roads In Jackson County, as this would limit a present bond issue there to 2600.000. One of the most unnecessary and un wise of the provisions of the state bonding bill is that of section 5. provid Ing for a sinking fund to be collected In 20 annual Installments during the last 20 years of each Issue of bonds. This is unprecedented for the retire ment of serial bonds. If this 220.000, 000 or 210,000,000 bonds all matured at one time, there might be reasons for establishing a sinking fund to provide for their payment at maturity. But such Is not the case with these bonds; they mature In series of 21.OOS.000 or 22.000,000 a year as the case trfay be, extending over a term of ten years. With an increase of an assessed valua tion in the next 30 years, based upon that In the last ten years, an annual levy of 1-20 of 1 mill each year for ten years will pay off the 21,000,000 of bonds as they mature each year, or less than 1-10 of 1 mill will pay off the 22.000.000 a year thus maturing. Quoting Rftbert W. Babson. a financial writer of note: Serial Bonds" Urged. Often in bond advertisements the bonds are referred to as "alnklns-fund bonds." This means that each year, after a certain date, a certain sum of money is supposed to be set a side for the purpose of having a par tial fund on hand to redeem said bonds when they mature, or else for the purpose of redeeming a certain portion of them each year. In the latter case the bonds must also be known as "eallahle" or "re deemable." as melt as "alnkina-f und bonds." rersonally. I do not care for the slnkino ffund feature, but much prefer "serial bonds," as In the latter case each holder knows definitely whan his bonds ar to bs paid. This not only eliminates the uncer tainty of having one's bonds called in for payment at an Inopportune time, but in addition, prevents the company from los ing the sinking fund before the bonds ma ture. However, up to a few years ago there, were practically no serial bonds ou the market, and either no provision waa made for the redemption of. bonds or else a sink ing fund waa accumulated and Invested from time to time until the bonds matured. In the latter ease either a few bonds were called by lot every year or else the fund was allowed to accumulate until the bonds matured. In the case of towns, municipal ities and counties, the latter method was generally pursued; and thaae sinking funds have often been the source of great graft and dishonesty among public offlclala. Now. however, this temptation haa been largely eliminated through the issuance of serial bonds, whereby certain definite bonds must be paid or canceled each year. Advantage Not Great. Except in the casea of mining companies and corporations, whose property naturally deteriorates, sinking-fund bonda have no greet sdvantase to the purchaser: and, other circumstances belnc the aimi, sinking fund bonda are no better secured tjian bonds without a sinking fund. In other words, if a bond is not well secured without a sink ing fund it Is generally true that no sink ing fund will make It safe except, how ever. In the case of mining companies, where the actual security for the bonds la being sold. As to the advantages and disadvan tages of a sinking fund, the following con cretely expresses the case: Advantages: (1) A sinking fund enables a company to reduce Its bonded indebted ness by buying and canceling its own bonds. 2 Bonds secured by a sinking fund are usually secured by closed mortgages, and. therefore, have a greater prospect of becom ing underlying liens. Disadvantages: (1) If a corporation is able to provide a sinking fund Its bonds are perfectly good without such a fund. (I) When sinking funds are arbitrarily re quired there la a temptation to reduce main tenance charges to a minimum, and this retards a healthful growth and develop ment. I believe the condition of proposed road legislation In Oregon Is most critical snd I tremble for the result. I believe that unless the differences be tween the state-wide bills and these harmony bills so-called lie reconciled, that the result will be no legislation by the people this year. As has been said before, about 3000 signatures have been obtained on the Initiative petitions for the state-wide laws. Hundreds of those petitions are out and again will be cir culated. I know of more than 200 which I sent out each with a personal I BOTTLE ; vsP As civilization (Ppfful RPk advances-'so do tne ' sales of "Sclilitz m fl$ ' Brown Bottles." ii Over a millionjk barrels sold annually. . iL Tne fmklic demands L ' ! ill If P ' a fmre Leer that will ite not cause biliousness.
