HIGHWAY ENGINEER ELLIOTT IS UPHELD BY THE COMMISSION (Continued From Page One.) quired to use Italian laborers in the construction of walls; that the engi neer failed to classify the work and told subcontractors how much New port was making thus creating dissen sion; that Elliott tore down with a crowbar work that had been passed by his inspector, and, .made the con tractor do it over again, and that El liott had expressed his determination to keep the amount of the cost of the improvement under $75,000, the amount voted for bonds. It was -asserted that Elliott had forced the discharge of Brown, a competent foreman, and had refused to discharge an Incompetent inspector. , Elliott flatly denied that he had ever stated that he would keep the cost down to $75,000. He pointed out that he had held the contractor to the plans and specifications and had sought to see that the work was prop erly performed. Italians Were Useful. The use of Italian workmen had been recommended in building walls, he eaid, because they had shown that they were the. most efficient in this phase of road building and that it was to the best interests of the state to em ploy them. He went over the charges of the company and contradicted them. It was brought out that the Oregon Washington Railway & Navigation company, along whose track the high way runs, had been dissatisfied at various times with the kind of work done by the Newport company. Bowlby told of a trip made over the road some time ago with Newport and stated that at that time Newport was satief led with the treatment given hira by the engineer in charge. If was brought out that although Newport had been In the contracting business 36 years, and had built 1000 miles of railroad, among other work, this was the first highway contract he had ever had. "The whole case is merely one of contractors taking the work too cheap," said Bowlby. "They are doing the usual kicking, as they always do, until the final estimate is made." John B. Yeon told the commission that if they permitted contractors to come before the commission and do their kicking, the commission would have no end of trouble. He declared there was no. call whatever for the A MESSAGE For Those Troubled in Mind, Body or.

Service one hour, from 11 till 12 o'clock.. m I l i 1 hearing- being held and told of the kicks and attempts made by contract ors in Multnomah county to get out of following specifications. He declared that the only system is to have the engineer look after such work and -see that -the specifications are compiled with. Teon Defends Benson. Mr. Yeori reSented any thought that S. Benson, who had devoted so many thousands to the upbuilding Of Oregon, would ask Engineer Elliott to hold the cost down to $75,000 in order that he might save a few thousand dollars on the guarantee. ' Treasurer Kay stated that he be lieved that no member of the board had any idea that anything Of the sort was asked of the engineer. He ex pressed the highest appreciation for the good work of A. S. Benson, S., Ben son "and Mr. Yeon. A. S., Benson said he had been over the work to some extent and that he had been Impressed with the fact thafr the road had all been left open. He thought it should have been possible to complete sections of it. Judge Stanton, of Hood River coun ty, added a few words, but stated that he was more of a spectator than any thing else. He merely wanted to know how the county would come out. PATRIOTIC BELGIAN MONK KEEPS LONELY VIGIL IN OLD TOWER (Continued From Page One.) A horrible odor rose from the water, an odor resembling that of rotting cabbages and decaying flesh. Dead Lie Unburled. "What's that?" the officer was asked. "Dead Germans, probably," he an swered. "There are hundreds of dead bodies around here which we cannot get to and bury. They fell in trying to cross under fire. At night we can't locate the bodies." Presently we left the road at right angles and took to a causeway three or four feet wide, made of small branches tied in bundles, resembling logs. The path was just above the of the wind, now and then. lapped over. We found the monk standing at the base of his steeple, looking with eyes, gray and tender as a woman's, in the direction of the Germans, now only 200 yards away. He was a small slim man, perhaps 30 years Of age, with manners as gentle as a girl's. He smiled almost constantly and was not the morose, brooding person one might imagine him to be, not the world-weary individual looking for a way to commit tuicide honorably. Ho loved life apparently as much an anyone, in his own fashion, and his martyr-like and self-imposed task Of hourly risking his life .was purely an act of patriotism, a way of serving mankind by serving his country. Dons Uniform for the War. Prior to Joining: the order the heroic monk was in 'the artillery branch of the army. When war was declared be got permission to leave his cell and get in his uniform again. His object was to serve God " by fighting for King' 'Albert. When the war is over and Belgium restored to her king, he says, he shall return to his cell, his usefulness in the army finished. While he had been talking the rain stopped, it was now about S o'clock in the morning. Th clouds thinned and the moon came out as brilliant almost . dav.
