Albany, OrV March 17. Unanimous
ly, vhe Albany Commercial club is be-
nmai tne movement to nave tne govern
ment advance money to counties for
road! ! construction in forest reserves,
in anticipation of future revenues,
through which the borrowed sums
would be refunded, and is in the hope
Jof getting other commercial clubs of
the valley to bring pressure to bear on
congress to get United States Forester
Graves' system adopted. E. M. Reagan,
iGeorjge Taylor and C. H. Stewart have
been appointed a committee to formu-
kli.. - . I. - AAA.A.tA - -III
t&ie yiaum lur mo uwccuun ui tin
clubs in this matter for urging con
grew, to take action
The matter came up in the local
club four weeks ago, when a resolu
tion favoring Mr. Graves' plan, where-
by the .roads and trails needed are to
ibe constructed, the cost to be deducted
' f ronj l sums due the , county affected
whel they become available, was
ipaased. .Copies of the resolution were
forwarded to the Oregon delegation in
congress, with the request that every
thing! be done to .secure the adoption of .
ithe. system.
! F.j il. Brundage, head of the Santiarn
quarters in this 'city, explained the
proposed system and the system in
effect at present, at the last meeting
of the club. ' Under the present sys
tem, according to Mr.- Brundage, the
state last year received $61,000, repre
senting. 2B. per cent of the gross re-i
ceipis from the- forests. Of this i
amoUnt, $21,000 went to Linn county.''
The revenue is realised from the sale!
'Jof timber and' from grazing and water-power
fees.
Income Will Increase.
Ai more transportation facilities
; are installed and as the lumber market
Increases, more timber will be cut
and the Income will be much greater,
accordinc to Mr. Brundasre. He esti
mates that for Linn county alone, the f
revenue will in the near future reach
,1100.1000 yearly, because the forest re
- serve in this county is capable of
' standing & cut of 100,000,000 board feet
each year. He estimates that this
revenue twould be from timber alone,
-hot to say anything of grazing and
, Watcrpower revenues:
-I The revenues are apportioned to each
county according to the proportionate ;
area of "the reserve lying within its ,:
Ooundary. rne reason the counties get
revenue from the government on in--fomes
from its forest reserves is be
cause the property in these tritoris
cah"t! be taxed. As a result, forest
thin nlan
Commercial j clui has two particular
projects in view; One is the, old San-
tiam " road from Tjihtnnn I tr
Linn county's cross-mountain highway.
From Lebanon east. 70 miles of it lies
In this county. This road is at present
a very poor wagon road, as most of it
runs directly through the Santiam na
tional reserve. Each year Its condition
Eta worse, as .there ,1a no raean of
keeping it up except through tolls.
From Cascadia to the summit,; it is
maintained -4s a toll road by the Ore
gon! & Western Colonisation CoJ ? The
amount this company receives' from
tolls is less by far than is spent for
maintenance. Aecording to Mr. ) Brun
dage, the company is willing to turn
it over to the public, without strings.
That it would ibe a drawing card for
considerable ; trade between the jvalley
andl eastern Oregon, and that It would
be traveled by thousands of tourists,
if it were improved and kept in proper
condition, is the contention of the local
Commercial club. In th .nt th.
proposed system; goes into effect, it
has been, hinted that the first money
secured would be used to place this
road In the desired conditio ni

Absorption of Ground Seats! by Soci

Aicn, says u'Ken. .
W. S. yRen addressed the revenue
and taxation department . of the Civic
league at the Haselwood luncheon yes
terday ori "The AbollUon of War by
Single Tax." ! .
Mr. U'Hen set forth that the ab-
sorption bf all ground rents by so
ciety would eliminate the nobility and
tne king in the old countries;, and the
idle rich tin this country, leaving ev
ery man (free to employ himself on
land he wanted to use himself. This,
he said, would make wars of conquest
impossible, since - there ' would be
plenty of land for all. ' I
"With, 11 ground rents in the pub
lio treasury," ' he said, "gJeat for
tunes could not remain intact and be
handed down from one generation to
another." I ! '
He predicted the disappearance of
servility and flunkeyism when any
man couljd employ himself j without
having td pay anything ? but .the an
nukl rental value of land for whatever
land he wished to use. - .
The draft of a proposed mjeaMre to
tax the Annual rental value of land
was read, which would amount to from
4 to I per; cent on the selling! value. .

KEYSTClNE COMEDY
COMING SUNDAY'
first of the Mutual Master Pictures you've read about in 'the Saturday Evening Poit
'"The Lost House' by Richard Harding Davis, world! famous author and war correspondent.
1
(np HE BATTLE OF THE SEXES" is a strong title for the
I motion) drama being enacted now daily at tn Star
Theatre, i At. every ptrformance you can see it. j a som
bre slice of life between two gay bits of laughter-guaranteeing
comedy; as the dark layer of cake between two light tiers. The
story it tells, mighty as truth 1 itself, might hare other titles.
"When Men's Double Lives Meet" or "If a Daughter Followed
in Father's Footsteps" would fit the silent bat moving drama.
The man who is beginning to cast his eyes upon a fascinat
ing neighbor, or the man who has already sent his glances that
way too long, should see "Th Battle of the Sexes."
The little gray woman rocking in' agony in her husband
forsaken home is a picture that roots itself deep in your
memory.':. j ' .j p -, " .-
There are little gray worruen in many homes.
But even more gripping is the picture of the daughter in
her dawning comprehension of her father's Weakness.
The girl, seeing her father in a dance hall with the shallow
enchantress who has made him forget his vows, tries to shield
her mother from the sight. ; p .
But the mother does see, and though she sfips quietly home
and bids her son and daughter say nothing to their fatheif of the
adventure, she sinks into profound melancholy, such melancholy
as presages madness. P- '' - I '
When 4he wife reproaches her husband he grows
angry, - as every marital douhle dealer does when
fnimi rmt II rrsrnti hairier aniA imnn 11 A-
ciares nis masculine independence, lie moven to nis
club. : - ' : " -. i ".- '
On the shoulders of the tender, innocent daugh
ter falls the. task of righting the wrong that has
thrown its shadow upon the home;
Drama tense as sver Sardou wrote ensuef. The
child woman, steals into the home ' of their evil
genius, waits for heij return, and from- behind! a cur
tain we see z revolver levelled by the steady; young
hand at the Lorelei who has lured their home ship
upon the rocks. . j
What happens next, by what means the sundered
home is made whole and shattered happiness mended
is a secret the pictures must tell you.
Therein is the sermon, the text of which is.
"There is iut one standard of. morals, a single erne
for men and women.
