S MOIfTESANO MEET URGES G000 ROADS Unselfishness and Desire to Co-operate in Road Build ing Are Noticeable. COLUMBIA BRIDGE TALKED Resolutions .Committee Mentions Highways Deserving of State Aid and Representatives-elect Are Heard From. MOXTESANO. Wash., Nov. 22. (Spe cial.) Good roads and the necessity of harmony in getting needed appropria tions for their construction, as, well as competent assistance In the build ing of hlgnways, were the keynotes of the opening of the tenth quarterly con gress of the Southwest Washington De velopment Association, meeting in Joint session with the Olympic Peninsula Development League here for a two days session. The meeting was well attended, prac tically every commercial organization in the association being represented. The real bit of sensation of the entire meeting came Just before adjournment this evening, when the resolutions com mittee reported and the resolutions were read. It was then that J. E. I'arnes, secretary of the Olympic Pen liiijrla Development League, secured tie floor and vlgirously objected to the naK.e of Sam HU1 appearing In the resolutions. This precipitated a heat ed argument for a few mli.utes, but hs he resolutions had been turned over to he press, the meeting adjourned to se-.ure them. Excitement In Expected. Tomorrow's session gives promise of beiau the warmest ever held by the two leagues. One of the remarkable' features of the Congress, as President Coffman ex pressed It, was the apparent feeling of lim.-mony with the selfish, grasping yDtl-nrnt being weighed by the broad er spirit of a desire to work for the general good of the whole state. "I was surprised to see how much the various county resolutions agreed with each ther." President Coffman aid, "and it indicates that the indi vidual needs are being conceded. If nec essary, for the ultimate development the state The members of the association were received upon the opening of the meet ing by a few words of welcome from Mayor Wheeler. He spoke of the need nf preparing for the opening of the Panama Canal, when hundreds of Im migrants will swarm to the Pacific Coast shores. He said he knew that was the object which the development association sought for and he declared it to be a worthy motive. Territory Bottled. Say Binwi, J. E. Barnes, secretary of the Olym pic Peninsula Development League, was the next speaker. He predicted that the greatest development in the next five years would be in the northern neck of the state, but he said that a road to unbottle this territory was badly needed. "Ail we need Is a road about ten miles long to let us get out of our country without being dependent upon steam boats." he said. "We are doing many things ourselves to develop the Olym pic Peninsula, but we need this road and I am glad to note that our resolu tlons committee has seen fit to put this road state aid road No. 14, on the list for recommendation." President Coffman, In his address In expressing the keynote, as he said, of the nresent session of the congress, said that it was the savage who worked IndeDendentlv of his neighbors and then fousrht whenever anyone ap proached with a plan for the general good which required effort of or the sacrifice of his worldly goods o "Pork Barrel" Wanted. "Civilization did away with all this," President Coffman declared. "We now work In communities and all together for the common good. We will never accomplish anything working separate ly. If this meeting does nothing more than to endow the people of Washing ton 'with a spirit of harmony in the buildinc of their roads it will have been a success, but if it does not do this it will have been a failure. We want to do away with the 'pork barrel"' at the Legislature and have our money raised bv taxation spent along lines that win do the most good for the public as a whole.". In speaking of the present system of distributing money for road con struction President Coffman Baid that enousrh money had been wasted In tho district road fund to build perma nent highways throughout all the state. Co-Operation Declared Necessary, Howard Taylor, Speaker of the last House of Representatives, who is a candidate to succeed himself, told how closer co-operation between members of the Legislature and their constitu ents could be had. Mr. Taylor said: "As soon as a man is elected his chief opponent at once begins to tell the public what a bad man they have elected to office and how much worse he will be." The sneaker advocated more care on the part of civic bodies in recommend ing legislation, ite saia tnat during the last session he received hundreds of recommendations from prominent civic organizations recommending leg islation that he would not nave voted for under any circumstances. People do not seem to investigate those things before they pass resolutions asking that they be made into laws, he said. James P. Stapieton, ot Vancouver, addressed the Congress on the need of a bridge across the Columbia River between Vancouver and Portland. The State of Oregon would be willing to share the expense, he asserted, and It was now up to this state to appro priate Washington's share. The Pacific Highway, if finished today, would be incomplete without this bridge, as means other than by ferry are not to be had to cross the Columbia. He said that two competing trolley lines would be operating between Puget Sound and Vancouver and Portland within a short time if this bridge were constructed. S. C. Lancaster Goldcndale, talked on state road No. 8, along the Colum bia River from Goldendale south to Vancouver. He said Oregon was at work on a road on the other side of the river and now it was up to Wash ington to build a road on the north side. Oregon's road would be made by convict labor, he said. Legislators Are Heard. Several members of the next Legis lature were present and were called upon by President Coffman for short talks. They all promised good-road legislation at the next session. They were: E. A. Simms, of Port Town- send, who put in a word for the state road No. 14, In the Olympic peninsula W. W. Connor, of Skagit County, and J. tu. Leonard, of Lewis County. BRIDGE DISTRICT PROPOSED J. A. Mundaj Would Bond Western Washington to Get Funds. VANCOUVER. Wash- Nov. 22. (Spe ciai.) James A. Munday, of Vancouver, Is in favor of forming a bridge die trlct, to take in all that portion of the -State of Washington west of the Cascade Mountains, and levy assess ments and bond it for an amount suf ficient to pay Washington's share of the proposed Pacific Highway bridge across tho Columbia River. He made an address before the bridge meeting in tne commercial Club yesterday where representatives . from the granges in Clark County met with the Dusiness men of this city. The Grangers adopted resolutions favoring the building of the brids-e. ana requesting tneir Senators and Rep- resenxatives to use means to accom plish this object.

Three Dozen Persons Testify at Hearing in Mysterious Newell Case. was mailed last Monday night, the day following the shooting. Miss Laura Barner, young Newell' fiancee, was one of the witnesses called She testified that the slain man took her to the theater on the night before he was killed, leaving her home at 12:1 on Sunday morning.

CENTRALIA. Wash., Nov. 22. (Spe cial.) After examining three dozen witnesses at a session which consumed practically the entire day, the Jury called by Coroner Sticklin to Inquire Into the fatal shooting of Charles New. ell, the Centralla postofflce clerk, . to day returned a verdict tlyit Newell met his death at the hands of some person unknown to the Jury at this time. Throughout the long inquest facts that would tend to fix the identity of the slayer were unproduced. tne jury was composed of William Hodge. Jack Vaughan. T. P. Miller, J. E. Lease, M. B. Jacaues and David r'nn. ping. Youth's Habits ReUted. A dozen witnesses were sworn to prove the fact of death and to describe the position of the body when found. Another dozen swore to young Newell's habits and his whereabouts on the night before the murder, but ' no one gave evidence tending to point out the slayer. . , The name of Jack Miles, which has been associated with the case, was mentioned many times, but no evidence was submitted to connect him with the case. Mrs. Miles was called to the stand. She denied that she even had a speaking acquaintance with young Newell. She told at length her move ments on the night before the killing, asserting that she went to bed at 12:45 A. M. She told her tale In straightfor ward manner. She said that slie had separated from her husband three weeks ago; that he left Centralla at j that time and had not returned since then. This statement was contradicted bv testimony of Harrison Minton. cook In a Main-street restaurant, where Newell was last seen alive. Minton testified that Miles came into the cafe Friday night, two nights before the shootinar. Other witnesses asserted that they had seen Miles on the street several times last week. Sliaa Barner Testifies. Mrs. Miles was recalled to the stand later and submitted a card which she had received from her husband. The card was postmarked Redmond, Or., and LAFFERTY'S TOTAL $1727 Dewey, of AVashlngton,y Makes Cam paign at Cost of $2.40. OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash lngton, Nov. 22.
