TO WALK TO SEASIDE Charles A,
Malboeuf, chief clerk In the office of the
general passenger agent of the South
ern Pacific leaves today for Seaside
He will be accompanied by one friend,
and Intends to walk the distance from
Forest Grove. An average of 25 miles
per day Is to be maintained by the
marchers, wtoo. before their return to
Portland, expect to cover 100 miles. The
only serious bit of walking the party ex
pects to encounter will be about Tllla
mock rock, where the trail Is reported
to be In bad condition: Mr. Malbeeuf
will carry a kodak, and expects to-re
turn with bits of scenery new to photo.
graphers. The party will carry Its own
supplies and cooking utensils, and the
entire time spent on the trip will be In
the open..
STIRS UP OPPOSITION The propo
sition to take up the plunking from the
road between Astoria and Wailuskl and
lay rock In Its stead, laying the plank
ing on the road beyond Olney does not
meet with the approval of the Nehalem
farmers. The planking which Is hem
lock Is said to be good for only a couple
of years more, and they say that th
county had better put the crushed rock
cn the new part of the road now, and
macadamise the balance when the bftl
ance wears out. They point to the fact
that rock can be obtained In large quan
titles In the vicinity of the Olney-Neha
lem road, where Contractor Good In Is
now making a fill of 1.300 feet at II per
foot, whlsh It Is proposed to deck with
the old planking. The fill Is made moet
ly of rock. What the farmers want Is
good roads, and he naturally objects to
second hand planking when the dis
trict discarding It gets crushed stone.
