In harmony In the effort to sescure suit able legislation at the next sefi of the legislature. The conference will be called to order tomorrow morning In the convention room of the Commercial club on the sixth floor of the new club building. President C. W. Hodson will call the conference to order and welcome the delegates to the city. Ho will then In troduce Judge L. R. Webster, who has had charge of the road Improvement which haa placed Multnomah county in the front rank of good rotid counties, who will preside at the conference. It la expected that jnore than J00 delegates will be in attendance at the open meeting. There is no program for j this meeting, and it Is expected that after a UTorough discussion of the good iwtua Bxi.ua.uun me conierence wui gei down to business and outline some plan by which the good roads campaign can be carried on pending the convention of the Jeglslature and the consideration of good roads laws there. Praming- Highway Lit. 'According to the general scheme tinder which the conference has been called, strong men will be elected, rep resenting all sections of the Btate, and Into their hands will be given the fram ing of a highway law for Oregon which will furnish the machinery and the au thority for the construction of per manent and scientifically constructed highways throughout the state. As important, however, as the legis lative end of the work is the missionary work that It Is hoped the conference will undertake. It is desired to effect a permanent organization of the confer ence, the object of which will be to preach good roads and work for their construction at all times and through out Oregon. It will be the purpose of this organization to creato public senti ment and to educate the people of Ore gon to the necessity of constructing good roads in every county. It is expected that this permanent organisation will select some man to take active charge of this work of edu cation, whose sole duty It will be to carry the campaign for good roads ac tively into every county in Oregon. For this position Judee Webster has been prominently mentioned. Ho has made the work one of his specialties and as 1 result has established the good road movement In Multnomah county on 1 dolid basis. John H. Scott of Marlon county, who Is the president of the ore gon Good Roads association, is also spoken of for the position. Funds Will Be Baised. ,If the permanent oiganlzution does appoint such a man it is expected that funds will be raised by subscription or other means for the payment of his sal ary, pending such time as the state legislature by enacting a law providing for the construction of state roads under state authority shall have cre ated a position to take the place of the man selected by the conference. The conference will meet at !i o'clock tomorrow morning. A second session will be heW in the afternoon and third In the evening There Is an old women In Portland who has been causing the postal au thorities no end of trouble of late by repeatedly using canceled stamps on let ters and papers which she wished to send away. The woman in question is 82 years of age and lives all alone in Alblna. When the woman Is called to time she always says that she has merely made a mistake and that she will not do it again, l'ostal inspector O. (' Riches has interviewed the old lady twice and each time she lias begged off from punish ment. If she keeps up the practice the gov ernment authorities will be compelled to take action There is a fine of 10 for such an offense. The Inspectors, how ever, are hoping that the old woman will reform thev say it would be em- United States postal Inspectors are looking for a man who Is going about thn country pausing forged money orders on mer chants.

A look out for theso fellows haa to be kept up all the time. When a man cashes a money order that haa been forged or raised the person paying put the money Is the only one who foses. I'ncle Sam protects himself In this way. The Inspectors soy that few persons cash bank checks without proper Identifica tion, but that they don't always think that Identification Is neces sary In cashing money orders on the postoftlce department. barrasslng to take an aged person like ! the offender into court on a charge of 101a1mg m postal regulations. i The woman seems to bo a mlsor and j uses tha stamps simply to avoid spend- J !ng her money.

Kronenberg, Germany, Aug. 19. All In reudlnuBS for the meeting tomor row of King Edward and Kaiser Wll helm here, to which Is attached tho ut most diplomatic Importance on account f tho delicate situation In European af tans at present. The king will stop over on his way toMarlenlmd. where ho goes for the batha. The kaiser arrived promptly at noon today. Tho kaiser haa only resented Ed ward's attempts to form a powerful de fensive alliance with Russia and France and the success of the king's plans, so far, is said to have piqued the German monarch. Tho nggreBBlvo tactics of the kalsor on the? other liiuuL have been one of chief disturbing el. merits in England's affairs. The German papers have gone so far as to counsel against Germany consid ering the visit of the king a great cause for 1oy They have pointed out that tho king's visits to Russia and other countries were much more formal and they speak of his meeting with the kaiser as "a passing greeting" They say that In view of the visits of the kaiser to I,ondon, the king should go to Berlin. GROTS PASS Thousands of Acres Will Be Converted Into Fruit Ranches This Fall. I D OM FOUR CHILDREN WATSOR SUED HI OIL LAUD DEAL Suit for 33,975 damages against D. M. Watson because of his connection with a Polk county oil deal has been begun in the circuit court In the name of the Polk County Oil company, a con cern that came into existence In March of the present year, and of which Wat son himself is the president. According to tho complaint, WatFon took a lease on 320 acres of oil and mineral bearing land in Polk county, and the company was formed to exploit this land, which was leased from H. F. Whiteaker and sub leased by the com pany. Approximately half of the capi tal stock of $100,000 was unissued, be ing held as treasury stock. The Wat son lease was accepted by the company in payment of the other haJf of tho shares, subscribed by Watsnn. It is now alleged mat u arson nas made the lease valueless by fraudu lently stopping the work of develop ment of the oil w.-lls. one provision of the sub-lease being that the lease should bo forfeited unless one well were com pleted in four months and others at in tervals of 10 days until 20 wells were finished. It is charged that June 19 Watson fraudulently unit work and de stroyed the eorisid. ration for tho leiuse and destroyed HJso the prospective profits, which are estimated at $1,500 a year for 10 years. The company also sues for $12,475, the vV.tie of the unissued treasury stock. The total of the damages claimed reaches $3.1.975. The oflcors of the company, besides Watson, are K. Mall. try, the vice-president, and F. M. t'olwel), secretary and treasurer. EAST SIDE DAS EVE ON KEY The east side thinks that It is entitled to considerably more than half the $1,000,000 which is to be raised by the bond Issue provided for recently by referendum vote, and the business men of that part of the city are uolng after what they want vigorously. A committee from the East Side Busi ness Men's club, consisting of 1 'an Kel laher, H. H. Newhall. II. A. Calef. O. S. Fulton and A. F. McFaul. has been sent to appear before the nark commission at 4 o clock this afternoon and state the' warns or tne east side. A committee from the West Alblna club will also be present and add the voices of Its members to the argument. "We feel." said Charles A. lileglow of the firm of Markell & Co.. today, "that we ought to have considerably more than half of that $ 1.000. 000. The west side is already well provided with parks while over here we have hardly any thing in that line. Rut we have the ma jorltv of the people. "We have heard that tha west side Is going to try to get the bigger share of trying (t'ulted PreM Leased Wire.) New York, Aug. 10.

The attitude of the public toward tho visit of King Edward to Germany tomorrow Is the subject of general discussion today and It is re marked that there is an absence of the usual enthusiasm over such events. In the order for the expenditure of nearly a million dollars on tho forth coming army maneuvers, military lend ers today see a design on the part of tho kaiser to Impress the world with the fighting ability of this country. It Is expected that the demonstration will be the greatest ever aeon in time of peace. The display, It is understood, was sug gested partially bv the great fleet man euvers of tho United States and England. (Btttclil Dlipatrh to Tha Journal.) Orante Pass, Or., Aug. 10.
