That hurt 4rda of thousands of exposition vlsl tors will rtrofit tersonaIly by the great lesson to be taught by the exhibits of this country's system' of highways Is elear to those who have the opportun-j Hy of talking with Blythe Henderson, hhlef pt transportation exhibits, P. F. I. K., : and his assistant, W. IS. Ben- ion. V"ei xienuersun is an expert on au transportation questions mat s why He occupies this Important offi cial position with the exposition. He is enthusiastic, but his enthusiasm i la- underlaid with sound reasoning and J Ms conclusions are drawn from ac tual experiences and knowledge of transportation conditions. In this and other countries. t "The importance of good roads," he said to The Journal representative yesterday, "cannot be Overestimated. and these wonderful exhibits of the country's highways will educate all of th farmers, all of the city people and ail of the railroads to what a few of them already grasped. Transporta tion is the life blood of any country- arid transportation does not mean rail roads alone. Win Aid Tanner. It means good roads to enable the tanner to market his crops profitably and to make bis heavy hauls at nomi nal expense. It means travel and freight privileges for. people to live in sections a vwiy from steel- rails; it means develonment of thousand ett sections of our country through invest- I merits and business brought in by tourist travel; it means capitalization of the magnificent scenery of the west And all of this is dependent on food roads "The only logical way to develoD a ection is to bring people; into It; and the only, way to get them there Is to arrord a' means of travel. The auto mobile industry has long passed the luxury stage it is now an Important Industrrlal factor in every line of bus iness and development, and it has rather forced the good roads move ment for which we should all be thankful. The Oregon people are going at the proposition right and the whole state Is t be congratulated on the fine class of construction used on ''your great Columbia highway. ' Columbia Koad Praised. "The state will find It the best In vestment It ever made not only this particular road, but every well con structed road within its borders. Of course I am delighted that the Col umbia highway will be represented with the other important highways II find that practically efery exposition official, as well a the .transportation , reri throughout the -country, are equal ly, pleased and enthusiastic over it. Those Portland Rosarlans are the or-1 final yve wires in promoting this I nu we an iae our nata oil to-' them. Engineer Lancaster is a wonderfully capable man, and. J. c. Ainsworth and Frank C.

Hi ' pleasing smile and well told humorous -stories were always welcomed in every ' circle. He was honest and public spirited. He was devoted to the best interests of the state and nation, from ' his point of view. The hardships of his early life had taught him to con tinue to . do what his hand found -to j do. until the end -was accomplished.' He will be greatly missed. I Therefore, be it resolved, that In the death of Seneca Smith, the city rat Portland has lost a friend, sealous for its welfare; the state of Oregon j valued citizen, and the bench and bar one who always strovn tn uniwiM ,th 1 honor and dignity of the profession, j . rse i xurmer resolved, that our sympathies are hereby extended to hi boreitved widow, that a copy of these ; resolutions be forwarded to her, and 1 .sirwi upun inn journal or tnis court.
