bills now be in Initiated last week
when business men turned out to the
number of more than 100 to Join the
first good roads parade held In this
city. The enthusiasm manifested that
day bespeaks success for the efforts of
those who are trying, by means of
state aid. to set better highways for
Oregon.
A procession of automobiles snd
other vehicles, over a mile and a half
In length? paraded through the business
streets for an hour. The machines were
filled with prominent Oregonlans,
among whom were Governor West.

Good roads. Oregon's Imperative need.
Is the slogan adopted by the good roads
boosters. They are trying to convince
the farmers and other residents of the
country districts that in the develop
ment of a system of permanent high
ways this state will benefit as it can
In no other way. If there Is any op
position to the bills at the November
election It will come from the sparsely
settled districts, as Multnomah County
and the larger towns are as- a unit In
favor of them.
Every means is being used by C. T.
Prall and his co-workers to arouse en
thusiasm for the measures among the
voters outside of Multnomah County.
The parade stunt worked so well here
that the Governor was asked u name
Saturday. May It. as Good Roads day.
to be observed all over the state. it
Is expected that this move will do
much toward securing the much-need
ed country support.
t lua-a Jlm t anpalaa.
All the commercial clubs affiliate
with the Oregon Ievelopment Leagu
have been called upon by Secretary
Chapman to assist in making this da
a big success. Each organization will
be asked to arrange some kind o
demonstration to attract widespread
Interest In the bills. Meetings will be
held, at which speakers will explain
the salient featurea of the measures
and tell why It Is to the Interest of all
to see that they are passed.
When the campaign was first started
C. T. Prall sent sets of petitions to all
County Commissioners and Judges tn
the state. It waa thought that they
would be Interested enouirh to ret slg
natures in their respective districts.
However, this means failed. To date
Mr. Prall has heard from nary a single
County Commissioner or judge. not
even as much as an acknomledgmen
of the receipt of the petitions, much
less the signed blanks.
Active Markers Xeedrrf.
It would be possible, if necessary, to
obtain the 0.000 alsinatures necessary
tn Initiate the six right here In Mult
nnmah County. said Mr. Prall. "But
we don't want to do that. We want the
voters of th whole atate to aign the
petitions. Then, when election time
comes around, we can be able to
that they have the Indorsement of all
counties.
-without the eurport of the vote
outside of Multnomah County we can
never expect to win. We can get that
vupport If a few men will work for the
bills. It may be that those whom I
sent petitions to are of the belief that
there is no question but that the bills
will pass. If they hold any such opin
l"n tr-ey stnt to get rid of It right
awsy and Jump In and do some work.
We have got to let the voters know
what the bills are; explain to them
the necessity of passing them and point
out the many advantagea the whole
state m-lll receive from such measures.
Kretwellw Dream t'esalast Trtse.
One would think that the County
Commissioners and Judges would be
only too willing to aid the passage of
me diiis. ir tne measures are adopted
theae officials will have more money to
apnd in developing the roads of their
respective districts. The new bills
place all authority In the hands of
these officials.
Pome day there m-ll be a broad hard
surfaced boulevard stretching from the
Alaskan border to the City of Mexico.
-i nis is tne belief or Frank M. Fret-
well, secretary of the Pacific Highways
association, wno passed through Port
land last week on his way to Califor
nia. Mr. Fretwell happened in here in
time to Join the vood roads parade.
J-eeretary Fretwell's mission to the
Southern state Is to superintend the
posting of signs along the route of the
I'acinc Highway from the Oregon bor
der to Redding. This will be the first
step In signposting the route through
to the Mexican line. In a short time
the Tarlflc Highway can be followed
from British Columhla to. San Diego
wnnout tear or going astray.
laeat Favere Bridge.
Fretwell Is enthusiastic over the way
tr.e Pacific Highway is being treated
all along the Coast. California's ap
propriation of 1 1 . 000. 000 for road
building will make the Pacific Highway
one of the wonders -of- the southern
state. The state's north and south
road, extendlng'from the Oregon line
to the Mexican border, will follow the
route of the "Road of Three Nations."
Sentiment in Northern Washington,
according to Fretwell. la strongly In
favor of the proposed bridge to span
the Columbia, River at Vancouver. It
was feared that Seattle and Tacoma
business men would fight such a proj
ect, on the ground that It would di
vert Southern Washington business to
Portland.
"As far as I can learn." ssld Fret
well. "sentiment throughout Washing
ton favors the construction of the
bridge. It would be a great tfilng for
both states and would form the last
connecting link In the Pacific Hlghwav.
It will be built. I think, although "it
may not come for a few years. The de
mand for It will force the legislators
to make the appropriation."

N0..0.-W. R.&N. DOCK, LAW
Court Rules "Xo Such Pier," Dis
missing Fish Case.
SALEM. Or., May 4. (Special.)
Master Fish Warden Clanton, here yes
terday, was advised by Attorney-General
Crawford thst no appeal can be
taken from the decision of the lower
court In the test case to determine
whether the description of a new "dead
line" on the Willamette River at Ore
gon City is sufficient.
The "dead line" was placed about
1000 feet further up the river, and the
new line was described as being a line
from the O.-W. R. & N. dock to a con
crete pier across the river. The court
held that there was no O.-W. R. & N.
dock In the court's knowledge, and thus
cleared the arrested fisherman.
Aa this is a criminal case the Attorney-General
decided there could be no
appeal.
Master Fish Warden Clanton states
that the question is one of great Im
portance to his offlce,- as the fish eggs
used tn the hatcheries are largely ob
tained from the Upper Willamette.
Attorney Garrlgng Indicted.
Lewis C. Garrigus, an attorney, was
indicted by the grand Jury yesterday
on a charge of obtaining property by
false pretenses. He Is charged with
having given lone Hartle and Marie
England a worthless note for $3800 in
exchange for Umatilla County farm
property. His ball has been fixed at
11500. He will be allowed to give bond
without submitting to actual arrest.

She Gives Him Credit for Success of
Campaign in His State and He
Promises His Support in
Fight Here.
"Bless you, my boy, I'm proud of
you," was the greeting of Abigail Scott
Duniway. leader of the woman's suf
frage movement in Oregon, to George
V. Piper, State Senator, of Seattle,
when he visited her at her home yes
terday. Senator Piper was the leader In the
fight which put the woman suffrage
bill through the Washington Legisla
ture and made possible equal suffrage
in that state.
Mrs. Duniway. although she has not
fully recovered from her recent Illness,
I sat up eagerly in her chair and lis-
. tened with kindling eyes to the Sena-
: tor's narrative of his fight for woman
. suffrage. She spoke of her hopes for
1 success In the Oregon campaign.
Her Magazine Taught Kim.
I Mr. Piper gave great credit for the
success of the movement in Washing
ton to Mrs. Duniway, declaring that it
was through reading the magazine she
published a number of years ago. when
he was a boy. that he first formed
Interest and sympathy for the suffrage
; movement.
i "Mrs. Abigail Scott Duniway wielded
an enormous Influence In Washington,
he said. "She is a person of National
prominence."
I "I am certain we will win In the
. coming campaign," declared Mrs. Dun-
Iway. "Washington won ahead of us,
but it was an Oregon boy who was re
sponsible for It."
Mr. riper Is, if possible, more strong
ly In favor of woman suffrage since It
has been put Into actual practice in
Washington than ever before.
Women Vote Intelligently.
"AH of the ghosts and bogies in ar
gument against It have disappeared
since it has gone into operation," he
said. "Some had said 'The majority
of the women will not vote if you give
them suffrage," but our experience has
been that they have voted In as large a
per cont as the men, and Just as Intel
ligently. It was a revelation to stand
at the polls during the recent elections
and watch the women vote. As a rule
I observed that they took to it Just as
naturally as the men; and they handled
their ballots with greater dispatch.
"The old pre-election talk about how
unpleasant It would be for a woman to
have to go into the rough atmosphere
of the polling places proved to be un
founded. I believe woman suffrage has
made tiie polling places more decent.
Women Get Out and Vote.
"With women 'voting It has come
about that we do not have to whip
about the office buildings of the city
to get the registration out. And after
they have registered there is not the
need for the old, old struggle to per
suade them to go to the polls and vote
and everybody who has had much to
do with elections knows how hard a
thing it Is to get a large proportion of
the men to take the time and trouble
to exercise their right of voting, even
after they have registered.
"It has been our experience in Wash
ington that the women are just as
frank, just as honest. Just as open to
reasonable argument as the men. and
are not Inclined, as many anti-suffragists
love to argue, to vote according
to Impulse or prejudice. The talk of
women saddling us with an unreason
able set of 'blue laws' has been effectu
ally laid In the elections In nearly every
woman suffrage state In the country.
Candidate Favor Suffrage.
"Woman suffrage In Washington did
not, as many had feared, bring about
any sweeping and dangerous changes
In the affairs of the state, and it is a
notable thing that among the candi
dates for office In the coming elections
practically all of them are heartily in
sympathy with it."
Mr. Piper assured Mrs. Duniway that
lie would be glad to-come to Oregon
when the campaign is actively opened
and lend all the assistance be can.
'If anyone can show me one valid
reason why women should not be
granted the privilege of voting, then
will go back on It, he said, "hut I
have never been able to find anyone
who could do so.
20,160 NAMES ARE SECURED
Good Roads Petitions Have One-
Third Sufficient Signatures.
Reports made yesterday upon the
progress of the work of securing signa
tures to the six good roads petitions
that it Is proposed are to be placed on
the ballot next November, show that
20.160, or more than one-third of the
required number, have already been
secured. Sixty thousand signatures are
required, but the Interest shown in the
measures since the circulation of pe
titions started May 1 has proven so
keen that the prediction is made by
President Prall, of the Good Roads As
sociatlon, that at least 100.000 will be
secured.
The reports posted yesterday do not
Include the work in distant counties, so
that there are really many more names
on the petitions already than the num
ber named. The names reported yester
day were secured through the follow,
lng mediums:
Automobile Club. 8000; Rotary Club,
2280; Realty Board, 800; miscellaneous,

LETTER TELLS OF ROADS
President Kraxberger Pens Opinion
in Contest to Governor West.
AURORA, Or., May 4. (Special.)
Among the letters forwarded to Gov
ernor West by the rural carriers of
Oregon, in response to his offer of a
fine mail wagon for the best letter ex
pressing their views and opinions on
Oresron roads, etc.. is one from Franz
Kraxberger. president of the State Ru
ral Carriers' Association, of this place,
from which extracts are given here
with. Mr. Kraxberger has been 14
years in the service. He submits some
photos of places and conditions along
his route that lead one to believe tnat
the "dimensions" given in his letter are
not exasperations, when he says "30
inches deep." He is a persistent "boost
er" for good roads and never hesitates
to exDress his candid opinion on tne
subject. His efforts have secured what
good road there is along his route. lie
says in his letter, in part:
' Mv route is 25 miles long. 40 to 60 feet
wide and (according to season) one to
30
Inches deeD. It consists or two miles
of
permanent and four miles of good e
road. The remainder Is just "road"
name only.

Were the roads good my expenses would
be reduced $200 to MOO per year, not con
sidering the lost time and hardships to
man and beast.
Each district ahould have its "frood roads"

should be used after each heavy rain, once
ear.h way. In some cases one dragging
everv few werks has been found sufficient.
Drainage of both surface and ground water
is the foundation ot road building.
On a certain day of eaeh year, to be
known as "road day." elections should be
held for the purpose of electing road super
visors, levying road taxes and setting aside
a portion of the road of the district to be
permanently constructed.
