THE MmtXTXtt OREGOyiAy, THURSDAY, 1 MARCH 18. 1915. : . . - i ACTION ON TUNNEL BIDS IS DEFERRED J. N. Day Urges That $50,000 for Hood River County Be , .spent in Improvement. COMMISSION IS IMPRESSED Aluluionutli Senator Advises Against rutting All Money Available in Work on Single 31ile of Uoad war at Mitchells Point. SALEM. Or.. March 17. (.SpeciAl.) Declaring that continuous roads should be provided in those counties which had bonded themselves and had re ceived state aid. 1. X. Day. State Sena tor from .Multnomah County, at a meet ing of the itate Highway Commission today, urged that $50,000 pledged by the state to Hood River County not be expended as contemplated in build Inp a tunnel and making grade at llitclull s Point. He said the money ould be employed to better advan tage in comici-tins. links and making other improvements on the Columbia Hichway in that county. Governor AVithyconibe announced that the sugpestit-ii of the Multnomah Senator was an important one and said thnl consideration of the bids which were opened today for making the pro posed .Mitchell's Point improvement would be deferred until next Monday, when the Commission would announce Its decision regarding the expenditure cf the money in Hood Kiver County. Criticism Are Heeded. I senator Day strongly urged that the Commission expend tne money at its JiFpoi-al In those countteg which had bonded themselves and where comple tion of road work was a necessity. He declared that although J32S.0U0 state money was expended last year no gen eral road system had been adopted. Critirifms of the policy in force from various sections of the state, the Sena tor insisted, should be heeded. do not believe the taxpayers will Justify the expenditure of $50,000 for a mile of road at Mitchell's Point," continued Senator Pay. "That place is already supplied with a road that has served the people for half a century. True. It has not a five per cent grade as it is proposed to make the new one, but at no point is the grade more than 17 per cent. There arc streets in Port land having grades of US per cent, and five ton auto-trucks with five and rlx-tn loads easily traverse them. The K'53,00" available this year 1 think had better be expended where there are no roads. The money is about all gone in Clatsop. Columb'a and Hood River, and 1 urge upon this Commission the Heredity of aiding- those counties, which wore assured of state aid when they bonded themselves. Tf this is not done it seems to me there will be cerious criticism of this Commission, and it may give the cause of good roads such a setback aa will take years for recovery. Valley rtoarto Criticised. 'We hear that tourists have been advised not to take tho road down the Willamette Valley. It is a positive disappointment that something has not been done on the roads in this valley. This is a highway that imperatively demands your attention. It is true some funds have been expended in a manner that would make the proverb ial drunken sailor look like a tight wad, and now the people are going to have such roads as their means will permit." Senator Pay admitted that the pro posed road and tunnel at Mitchell's Point would provide rare scenery, but questioned whether it was good policy to spend S30.000 in the interest of a scenic highway when there was al ready a passable road at that point. H.Lv Bowlhy. State Highway Kngl neer. said after the meeting that the grade on the present road at Mitchell's Point was 27 per cent. In some places. He also declared that the proposed Improvement there was necessary and further that the Highway Commission had pledged the state to make the specific improvement. The board at a meeting last July adopted a resolu tion providing that "J50.000 be allot ted to building the thoroughfare around Mitchell s Foint, according to the survey." Protest Kxnected. Major Bowlby thinks this binds the board to make the improvement, al though it is declared there should be no protest from Hood River County If the J30.000 is spent to tho best ad vantage in that county. Bids were submitted by the follow ing on the Mitchell's Point work: Standit'er-Clarkson Company. Port land; C.iebisch & Joplin. Portland; Porter & Conley. Inc.. and Edward Wren, Portland: A.

Charges of extravagance and ineffi ciency were made against State High way Engineer Bowlby to the State Highway Commission today' by W. C Lever and Frank Madden. County Com missioners of Jackson County. Thev said that, although the county had bonded itself for $500,000 to build its 62 miles of the State Highway, only 14 "4 miles of paving and 14 miles of grading have been completed. with f 82.000 of the original sum unexpended. They said when the bonds were issued it was believed that svith J200.000 from the state the entire stretch of road could be graded and paved. Commissioner Madden said ex-Governor West, who represented a con tractor, recently appeared "before the County Court and demanded that $35, 000 additional be allowed, but said he would settle for 25.000 if the money was paid without the necessity of filing suit. State Treasurer Kay announced to day that he lavored retaining Major Bowlby only on the Hood River County work and would oppose his doing any further work in Columbia and Clatsop counties. f FERRY IS TO BE INSPECTED City of Vancouver to Be Idle Prom 9 : 1 0- A.

"At Guy's Hospital Sir William Arbntn not Lane decided on the heroic plan of re moving the diseased organ. A child whe appeared in the final stage of what was believed to be an incurable form of tuber cular joint disease was operated on. The Lower .Intestine, with the enception of nine inches, was removed, and the portion left was joined to the Smaller Intestine. "The result was astonishing. In week s time the internal organs resumed all ther normal functions, and in a few weeks the patient was apparently in perfect health. The Lower Intestine can never get into this condition if Internal Baths are used. The "J. B. L. Cascade" cleanses the Lower Intestine its entire length thoroughly with pure warm water and removes all this poi sonous waste which is such a menace to health. , . .. It is Nature a own core for Constipation, and is now being used by over 300,000 Americana with great success. . The "J B. L.

Positive Relief For Constipation The progress of modern med ical science is, perhaps, no mora forcefully evident than in the eimplifyin? of many of the old- time remedies of past genera tions. For instance, the harsh cathartics and violent purgatives used by our forefathers to re lieve constipation are now known to be not only unnecessary, but really harmful. Constipation can be more effectively relieved with out the discomfort and pain these old-time remedies occasion. A combination of simple laxa tive herbs with pepsin, sold in drug stores under the name of Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is most effective, yet mild and pleasant. It Is absolutely free from opiates and narcotics and equally as desirable a remedy for the tiniest babe as for ruggCd manhood. A free trial bottle can be obtained by writing to Dr. W. B.
