at a special meeting of the association

Approval of the highway board and
commissioner bill, the county bonding
act and the city and county convict la
bor bill, was also withheld until the
special committee shall have reported
unon -the measures. Members of the

did not wish the organization to go
on record as Indorsing the measures
unless they are found to serve the pur

Dr. 'Andrew C Smith was inclined to
beilev-'. that none of the bills in the
form passed should be approved by the
Good, Roads association. The fact that
the commissioner to be appointed at a
salary of 14000 a year is to be given ad
visory supervision of roads .constructed
In the state and not absolute control
of construction, as was first planned,
was, .to Dr. Smith's mind, a nullifying
clause.1' 1 - - r- ' "

LEGISLATURE HITS
. UQUOR TRAFFIC
Eastern Oregon, However, De
feats Bill Affecting Incor
poration of Towns."
Th recent session of th legislature
placed Itself en record as favoring th
curbing; of th liquor traffic Two laws,
placing restrictions-upon IV."' wer
passed. A third, even more severe, went
through the house easily, but eastern
Oregomnen in the senate contrived to
kill It because of th effeot It would
have upon their section of the stat,
The most Important of th new laws
which relate to th liquor question, Is
contained In a bill presented by Senator
Dlmlck.of Oregon City. It prohibits
the consumption of liquor In any raiU
road depot, bans the nse of liquor on
trains, except in th dining cars, ai;d
makes any Intoxicated person entering
a train subject to a penalty.
This bill, unless -vetoed, wilt probably
have a far reaching effect and perhaps
mors so than th author had tn mind. In
Portland, for lnstanc. It compels the
saloon now located In th Oregon Eleo
trlo railway depot at the foot of Jef
ferson street to go out of business.
There are said to b similar situations
in other parts of th stat which would
be affected. v
The second bill passed by both house
was one Introduced Jy JRepresentatlT
QUI of Wasco county, , It reads in part
as follows: : ,
"No person shall b permitted to sell
spirituous, vinous or malt liquors or
fermented older, commonly known as
hard cider, or. pear bear, in this stat,
without having first obtained a license
from th county court of the proper
county for . that purpose . and In no
place where any college or .university
la now or shall hereafter be located, for
a distance or one mil or more from
thereto, where such sales ar now being
made under such licenses. No llcens
shall be granted for such sales within a
distance of on mile from such college
or university." ' :.'
The provisions of this act, however,
do not apply to any ulty or town now
Incorporated. ' - '
The bill defeated by the eastern Ore
gon senators was presented by Judg
Derby of Hood River.--It prevented in
corporation of towns having a popula
tion of less than S00. The fact that un
der the present law any group of per
sons may Incorporate and sen liquor In

CALLS MODERN CITIES
WORSE THAN JERUSALEM
Ths city Is th greatest problem of
Christianity. Christ marveled at th
unbelief, which he found In Jerusalem.
If he should return to earth now he
would marvel more at th sight Of th
great numbers or young1 people who
negleot church and religion for theatres
and frivolity," said Dr. John Balcora
Shaw at th First Presbyterian church
last night
Dr.6hawa eubject was th, "Excla.
matlons of Jesus.". H. recalled the ex
clamation, of sorrow made by Christ
when,: Je Jooked :ver Jerusalem; the
city of first Christian opportunity" and
last in Christian belief. 1 ; '
"It was such -an exclamation as' a
great-hearted man might hav made,"
said Dr. Shaw. "If we remember" the
exclamations of Jesus we will find that
many wer In sorrow, but more were
of y gladness. Christ believed In - God.
He believed In humanity; he believed In
men. Looking down-lc to the-depths of
human nature as he only could, seeing
the . unbelief, and wickedness, he sill!
believes In humanity and still yearns
thatfmen shall turn onto him."
Stewart MoOulre sang last night and
his solos were a distinctive feature of
