PROPOSED
Four peiJInerit-rfrtroTTS"why the pro
JifrsedtToad through the Bull Run re
serve should not be built, and why
Oregon's senators and representatives
in congress should do everything in
Iheir power to secure the passage of j
nenaior; iane s out now;penaing are
given by Will II. Daly, commissioner
of public utilities. The Lane bjll will
prohibit the building of any road or
highway through any part of the re
serve." The reasons follow:
First, the proposed road will cut off
the water suppl from the Clear Fork
and Ubst -Creek, Which the city pro
poses: to utilize within the near fu-L
ture.
Second, the close proximity of the
proposed road to Bull Run lake, the
source of Portland's present water
xupply. will endanger the water by
contamination and pollution.
Third, the high elevation of Lolo
Pass will render the proposed road
accessible for only four or five, months
during the year.
Fourth, the distance from Portland
to Hood River by the proposed road
will be 28 miles more than by the Co
lumbia River Highway, now under
construction.
.Rout la Outlined. t
: .The proposed road would go through
a" portlon-Of 'township 2 south, range S
cast of Willamette) meridian, over
fLolo Pass, a point In the uascaae
i mountains 3540 feet above sea level.
It would connect with the Barlow road
Just south of Mount Hood, near the
Junction of the Spndy river and Zlg-r
..sag creek at a point 46 miles east ot
Portland. There Is about four miles
! of road -now constructed within the
j reserve, the work having been done by
I the United States forest service before
' 1912, when the city discovered that the
department was at work on the high
way. The government at that time
was-prevailed upon by the city to dis
continue its construction work.
Those who are Interested in the pro
jected highway wish to have this un
finished road completed and connected
with the road leading to Hood River
through Lolo Pass. They are asking
I that the, city officials do not press the
passage of the Lane bill, and have al
teady started to circulate petitions for
forwarding to Oregon's senators and
.representatives in congress, asking
that the bill be not passed. ' ' ,
- Congress In 1892 created within the
Oregon forest reserve an inner reserve
known as the Bull Run reserve, con
sisting of 222 square miles. In 1904
another act was adopted prohibiting
trespassing within the reserve and the
grazing of stock on any of the lands.
While the actual watershed of Bull'
Run lake and river covers- about 130
square miles, a sufficient margin was
included around ft to guard agairjst
PERSONAL MENTION
County: Clerk Coffey promenades
about the courthouse nowadays "with
his vest showing that he may display
a fine elk tooth charm dangling from
l;ls watch chain. He is as proud of
the charm as a young father over his
baby's first tooth, for the charm ha
more than ordinary significance. On
memorial day of the B, P. O. E. last
December Mr. Coffey delivered, the
memorial address In the temple of the
Heppner lodge number S58, B. P. O. E.
Yesterday hn received a package con
taining the elk tooth handsomely
mounted and appropriately inscribed
witli the best wishes of the lodge In
recognition of appreciation for the ad
dress. After 26 years of intimate connec
tion with the clay products manufac
turing business in the Portland dis
trict, Blaine R. Smith, now manager
of the Denny-Renton Clay & Coal Co.'s
Oregon plants, will retire from active
business for a whole, his resignation
has already been forwarded to the
company's headquarters at Seattle and
will become effective March 1. . Mr.
Smith became an apprentice with the
Western Clay Manufacturing company
of this city 26 years ago. He soon
; acquired 'a small interest in the com
pany, and at the time it was sold out
to the Denny-Renton company, three
years ago, he owned half the capital
j stock. At Jhat time Mr. Smith was
, anxious to Retire from business but he
was prevailed upon to remain as man
ager of the Denny-Renton Co.'s Ore
gon properties. He has now fully de
cided to take a rest. Mr. Smith with
his -family will probably travel for a
year and upon returning to Portland,
he will again take up an active busi

BULL RUN "ROAD VIEWED AS MENACE TO WATER SUPPLY
fines and to tender the 'patrol of Its
boundaries effective. ;
Danger Is Seen.
; Commissioner Daly says that the
road if finished' as' proposed will en
tirely cut off- from .thejBull Run re
serve ttJe water supply of Iost creek
and Clear, Fork of tfhe Sandy rlver.-
"The water of Clear, Fork and Lost
creek are the property; f the city of
Portland," said Commissioner Daly.
"To eliminate the township which
contains these two . valuable streams
from th.e? Bull Run reserve would ren
der this future water .supply of little
or no value to the city." .,
According to Commissioner Daly,
there are four principal reasons why
the -road should not be constructed
through the reserve. First, if the road
is built it will cut off additional water
supply which-tlie city . Is planning to
get from another conduit connecting
with the streams of the Clear Fork
and Lost creek; second, the close prox
imity of the proposed'road to Bull Run
lake on which, at present, Portland Is
entirely dependent for its water, thus
endangering the supply by pollu
tion and he surrounding timber by
tire; third, the road if constructed
would be 94 miles in length from Port
land to Hood River, while the proposed
Columbia highway . will be only 66
miles long; fourth, on account of the
high elevation of Lolo pass, the pro
posed road would" be passable only four
or five months tluring the year.
' City Planning for Conduits.
"The city has already made plans
and surveyed for a conduit to. bring
water from these-two streams and pro
poses to spend Jl,fl00,000 in construct
ing additional headworksi and the pipe
line. This Is necessary to care for the
future . growth of Portland.
"The proposed road will pass within
nn and a half miles, of Bull Run lake.
which forms the head works of the Bull
Run river. This lake is about one and
three-quarters miles long by one half
a' mile wide and, very deep, "' forming
a valuable storage basin. The area
of the present water surface of the
lake is 450 acres ana its capacity a J,
000,000,000 gallons, of which 10,000,-
000,000, would be available for use. -
"I believe It is reasonable to predict
that the building of such a roadway
through this township will attract a
great deal of travel through the Bull
Run reserve. Of 'course Increased
travel means a larger number of trav
elers, both careful and careless, as
regarding their personal habits as well
as what they may do in causing fires.
"Th greater the number of people
passing through the reserve, the
greater tba difficulty In enforcing ob
servance of the laws regulating build-J
ing of camp fires, etc.. In government
reserves. It would expose Bull Run
lake to the almost certain danger of
beiftg converted. Into a popular moun
tain resort, on account of Its accessi
bility over this roadway.
Fir Menace Factor.
"Should the lake become a popular
resort it is not unreasonable to sup
pose that the water supply . of this
city will become contaminated , and pol
luted, and from experiences; in the
past, the prediction I believe, is war
ranted that a greater percentage of
destruction of- forest through fire Is
bound to occur. Observation '; has
taught us that denuding of forests or

Run reserve over this highway, as " Sjv
I 'Wm I - sir
the act of congress of 1304, expressly
forbids and providls a penaH for
trespass whether on roadways, trails
or any other avenue. Therefore, lfeel
sure that the next number on the iiro
gram would be a petition to congress
either to eliminate all of townsnip 2
south, range 8 east from the Bui Run
reserve, or to repeal the act ofl904
'Should the apt be repealed, I feel
that it would be a calamity to the
city, inasmuch as the danger of de
nuding the water-shed, through fires,
and the pollution of its waters by
thousands-of people who would likely
make use of iie privilege of travers
ing its mountain fastnesses are multi
plied many times.
"The waterworks is the most im
portant of the city's public utilities.
The water supply is 'Portland's most
valuable asset. Ujtfess the bill now
pending in congress'to protect the Bull
Run reserve and prohibit all roads
therein is passed, the supply will cer
tainly be diminished and there is no
other source from which it can be in-i
creased."
Denies Road xm Kacessary.
It is contended by Commissioner
Daly that there is no necessity for the
road through the reserve since the
Columbia 'river highway, which is now
under construction, will be &8 miles
shorter than the proposed road to Hood
River. The distance from Portland to
Hood River along the Columbia high
way will be only 66 miles, while the
route of the proposed road through the
reserve will be 94 miles.
The proposed . road , at Lolo pass
would be 3540 feet above, sea level or
enly 340 below the elevation of Government-
camp, which is accessible for
ordinary travel only four or five
months out of theyear and then only
during the suromer, months, hence Lolo
pass,- at an elevation of 340 feet less,
would be Impassable except during the
four or five months.
Advocates of the proposed roadway
have contended that once the highway
is constructed, snow plows could be
used to keep it passable through the
pass all of the year, but Commissioner
Daly believes that such a scheme
would be impracticable.
W. R. Winans, of Hood River, who
is circulating petitions to send to
Henry CV Graves, head of the United
States forestry service, 'is doing every
thing possible to have the road com
pleted. According to Mr. Wjnana the
proposed road passes, j at the -nearest
point to Bull Run lake, more than 1000
feet lower than the watershed so that
no drainage from this road could reach
the lake or Bull Run rfver. i
Mr. Winans contends that there is
little in Commissioner Daly's argu-
