LABOR QUESTION CLEARED
County Will Wot STeed Spend On Xol
- lar for Jtepairs of Boads In
15 Tears.
The following questions have been
asked ; John B. Teon, county" road
master, daring the $1,250,000 bond
campaign which will be voted on to
morrow. Here are the questions and
his answers:
Q. What will it cost the taxpayers?
' - A. Ah average of 39 cents per year
for every $1000 assessed valuation for
15 years. Including principal and In
terest. -
Q. Xoes the poor. or rich man pay
for this bond Issue?
A. Six per cent of the taxpayers of
Multnomah county who are assessed
$10,000 and over pay three fourths of
the total taxes of Multnomah, county.
Ninety-four per cent of the taxpayers
who are assessed : $2000 -and less pay
25 per cent of the taxes of Multnomah
county. j "
Q. If the bond Issue Is voted -down,
will the taxpayers be, ahead finan-
cially? ' :-
A. No. The taxpayer will have the
maintenance charge of- Maintaining the
70 miles of macadam roads, -which, are
to be paved if this bond issue wins, of
$70,000, for oiling, $18,000, matting a
total of $88,000 for maintenance and
oiling of the 70 miles to be paved.' If
the bands are carried deduct Interest
on bonds $62,500, leaving a balance of
$25,000 to the good by-voting for thof
bonds. If the bonds are turned down,
the county commissioners will be com
pelled to provide in the regular tax
levy every year enough money to pave
these 70 miles of main trunk highways
by providing for at least f 5 to 25 miles
per year! Why not take a leap to pros
perity, vote for the bonds, pave thes
roads this year, save the maintenance
money and take 15 years to pay for
the same.
Cross Boads Considered.
Q. What will you do with the cross
roads that are unimproved today?
1 A. If this bond Issue is voted on
favorably, all the money that would be
spent for maintenance will be used to
improve the cross roads leading to
these main trunk highways which have
practically no outlet at this time.
Q. How long will these paved road
last?
A. We will insist upon a guarntee of
10 years for these paved roads, and
"at the end of ten years we figure that
the roads wiU be turned over to us in
first class shape, which will mean at
leav five ytars longer. The count
can forget tie maintenance of these
7o miles of paved roads for the next
15 years.
' Q. How will "the contracts be let for
these paved roads?
A.. They will be let upon open specifi
cations and bids for every one that has
any pavement to offer. I, as roadmas
ter, will - make my recommendation to
the county commissioners as to which
Is the best pavement for the money
and for the best interests of Multno
mah county. Then it is up to the three
county commissioners! to make the fin
al decision. It is not a one man pro
position. I will not have all the say
by "myself.
Q. What class of labor will be em
ployed for this road construction un
der the bond issue? ,
A. By order'of county commissioners
preference will be given resident na
turalized citizens who have families
depending upon them.
Xit of Planned Expenditures.

ToCal $1,250,000
Q. How much of this bond issue
will be spent in Portland and Multfto
rnah county?
A.- Nearly all of it,, and the beauty
of it is that it will all remain with us.
It Is only a question of $1,250,000 put
into circulation. If we had to send
this money east for steel bridges or
anything along these lines and have
the money remain ther. I would not
be so much In favor of this bond issue,
bxit in this case; 80 per cent will go to
labor and the balance for crushed rock

and sand, with the exception of .the
money that will goMnto asphalt. This
money will reach all channels of trade.
Everyone in Portland and Multnomah
county will get the benefit of it.
Q. Which roads will be paved first?
A. All main trunk roads which-are
embodied hi this bond issue will be
paved first to the farming district, and
the Columbia river highway from Chan
ticleer to the county line will be left
until the last, giving relief to all the
farming districts first.
Q. How; much of the hlghway'do
you Intend to nave this year?
A. ; All, with the exception of about
two miles of fill. .. t
Q. ; How many miles of payed roads
has Oregon? '
A.. Clatsop county, : 9 miles; Jack
son county; 15 miles; Tillamook coun
ty X mile; Multnomah county, 3
miles. Total paved roads In Oregon,
25 miles.?
Comparison Xs Drawn.'
King county, ' Washington, has 105
miles pf paved roads and is adding 89
miles more this year. If it was not
proven to . King county that paved
roads were a good investment, the citi
zens surely would not add 85 miles
rmore to their present 105 miles.
Q. What have paved roads done
for other counties and states?
A. They give every one living on
these county paved roads a depot at
their door 365 days out of the year for
freight and passengers. They give the
farmer cheap and speedy transports
tion. They bring consumers and pro
ducers , closer together. They bring
tourists who spend money. . They help
settle up idle land and create new tax
able wenlth They bring desirable
eastern farmers who will not buy land
on dirt and.mul roads.
What Are the Profits?
Q, What good will the Columbia river
highway ; be to 'Portland and 'Multno
nomah county?-
' A. We will get back out of the tour
ists more, than the- first cost of the
Columbia.;. river highway. We will be
known ' all r over the world within a
very . few years as having the finest
scenic highway in any man's country.
It will t make Portland a playground
during the summer vacation. Tour
ists who now stop with us ope or two
days will Stop with us at least from
two to . three weeks and spend their
money. It 'will tap all of Hood River,
The- Dalles Shaniko, Bend, Prineville,
Pemlleton, Baker, Walla Walla, Klam
ath Palls, Crater Lake, Spokane, all of
Eastern Oregon and California, which
have" ho outlet 'at this time except by
shipment from The Dalles. When our
beautiful Columbia river highway is
paved to our city, making it passable
865 days out of the year, the tourist
travel coming from California, Idaho
and all of Eastern Oregon will be im
measurable. We would be justified
alone in building the Columbia river
hisrhway from Bridal Veil to the
upper Sandy bridge to improve
the
farming district of
40,000 acres that
is now unimproved. It will serve S000
acres of the finest garden land from
Troutdale to the city limits.
Q. What good will these paved roads
do me, when I live a half mile from
them and they do not come by my
house?
A. Do not be selfish. Tou surely
stand a better show to get your road
improvedby your house after these
main trunk highways are built and
off of the main tax list. We will
then have money to improve all the
lateral roads that will come Jnto these
highways. ,
Q. " Can a nroter jvote for this bond
issue who has no property?
A. Yes. Everyone who is a regis
tered voter is allowed to vote on this
bond issue. . ,
Q. Can I vote If I have changed my
residence and did not re-register In
my new precinct?
A. Yes. Vote in your old precinct.
YEOX SPEAKS AT GRESHAM

dents of the Gresham district at Reg
ner"s hall, 'Gresham, last night on the

river highway and hardsurfacing 70

HIGH COURT HOLDS
DYER IS MAYOR OF.
CITY OF PENDLETON
R. F. Kirkpatrick, Who Filed
Oath of Office, Declared
''v Not Entitled to Place.
OPINION GIVEN BY HARRIS
Official Hlaup Followed Death of W. T.
Xatlook la August of Bast
.. Tear. ;
Salem, Or., April 13. -The supreme
court held today that John W. Dyer
has been and Is rightfully vested with
the powers and authority attaching to
the office as mayor of Pendleton and
that R. F. Kirkpatrick is not entitled
to the office. The Judgment of Cir-J
cult Judge Gilbert in the case, In
which! Dyer was plaintiff and R. F.
Kirkpatrick defendant, was affirmed.
W. F. Matlock was mayor of Pen
dleton and died August 31, 1914. Feb
ruary 4, 1914, Dyer, who. was at that
time a councilman, was elected chair
man of the city council. From the
date of Matlock's death until January
22, 1915, no other person claimed any
right to the office. On the last named
date the council passed a resolution
to the effect that when there was a
vacancy in the office of . mayor, by
reason of death or otherwise, the
council should elect a successor, and
thereupon passed another resolution
electing Kirkpatrick. Dyer voted
against the resolution and asserted
that he considered himself mayor of
Pendleton by reason of being chair
man of the council. Immediately after
the adjournment or tne city council,
Kirkpatrick filed an oath of office and
since that time has claimed to be
mavor. f
In the opinion of Justice Harris, the
court holds that the language If tne
mayor be from any cause un
able to act," contained in the Pendle
ton charter, is broad enough to cover
any possible contingency. The sub
stance of that section is that in such
case the chairman of the council
shall have and exercise the powers
and perform all the duties of mayor.
It is therefore concluded that Dyer is
entitled to the office.
' The court follows the Dyer find
ings in affirming the decision against
W. L. Bowlby, who claimed that an
ordinance regulating pawn brokers and
second hand dealers was invalid be
cause Dyer was not legally acting
as mayor when he signed it. Bowlby
had been convicted of violating the
ordinance.
"Peace" Will Be

Next Sunday will be "Peace Sunday"
and will:" be observed by special ser
mons in Portland churches.
The day, April 18, Is the ninth an
niversary of the San Francisco earth
quake and fire. The idea of celebrat
ing it as "Peace Sunday" originated
with the clergy of San Francisco. They
sent out a call to preachers in other
cities to set aside their service for the
day to a discussion of, and prayers for,
peace.

ZJf On Cause for X earing Sob of
Chocolate Xing.
San Francisco, Cal., April IS. (P. N.
S.) "Too much mother-in-law and too
much high living," was the explanation
here today of Mrs. Nina Ghlrardelll,
wife of Joseph Ghlrardelll, clubman
and scion of the millionaire chocolate
manufacturer of that name, as to why
they have decided to get a divorce
Following a stormy scene in the Ghlr
ardelll home, the husband went his
way, , The wife explained It in this
way: .-, v ,
"Joe insisted upon playing a continu
ous engagement at the roadhouses and
cafes. After a time this, with other
things, disgusted me, and I told Joe
the time had come to call a halt."
Previous to his marriage to his pres
ent wife, who was Mrs. Nina Bayman,
a Los Angeles widow, with whom he
eloped five years ago, Ghlrardelll
achieved notoriety by an affair with
Marion Murray, a vaudeville actress.

FRENCH ARE HOLDING

Heavy Cannonading Believed
Prelude to Further Offen-
sive in Woevre District,
GERMAN ATTACKS FAILED
Beservists of 1916 Class,. Boys of 18,
! Fass Through Paris Today on
Their way to the Troat.
By Franklin P. Merrick, -PariB,
April 13. (I N. S.) Holding
grimly on to the ground they have won
in the battle of the Weevre,- the
French today, the war office here as
serts, have lost not a foot of trenches
in the Woevre district, and are ham
mering steadily at the German posi
tions, while the Teuton guns reply
with a continuous roar to the fire of
the French artillery.
AH through west Flanders, in the
district south of the Lys riven the
valley of the Aisne and in the Cham
pagne, the duel of heavy cannon raged
today. It is Indicated that the gun fire
is but prelude to another French smash
to the German wedge extending to St.
Ml hi el.
The Germans, the war office here
reports, have made half a dozen fierce
attacks on the encroaching French .In
the Albert section of the Woevre field.
.Some of the Teuton smashes were
made by night and some In broad day
light. Every one of the attacks failed
to dislodge the French from their
newly-taken positions, which they have
consolidated despite the stiff German
attacks. On the Woevre the French
countered the German attacks, and be
tween the Meuse and the Moselle rivers
their offensive in a half score of
places has been pushed right up to
the lines of German wire entangle
ments. Official telegrams Issued today by
the war office also give details of the
fighting along the Alsne valley, where
the. French claim to have captured an
important German trench east of
Berry-Au-Bac. Between the Aisne and
tlie North sea, along the Belgian and
British fronts, only artillery duels are
reported. .-
Brief details of an aerial attack by
Germans on Nancy were reported to
day. They declare that only slight
damage was wrought.
Thousands of French reservists of
the 1916 class passed through Paris
today on their way to their regiments
at the front. Most of them were only
about 18 years old, but as they passed
through the streets they showed un
bounded enthusiasm and were loudly
cheered by the populace as, bands
playing gaily, they marched out -to
the war.
BELGIANS STRUGGLE
IN FLANDERS TO TAKE
DEI GRACHTEN AGAIN
London, April 13. (U. V,) Severe
fighting has, been resumed- along the
seacoast of Belgium. Amsterdam "dis
patches reaching here today tell of de
termined attempts by the Belgians to
drive the Germans from the village of
Drei Grachten in the Yser region.
This place has already changed hands
twice and the present attack of the
Belgians is resulting in extremely se
vere clashes. Street fighting is re
ported in progress." The Belgians and
Germans are fighting from house to
house while the Belgian shell fire upon
the German positions about the village
-is becoming increasingly violent.
British aviators have again dropped
bombs upon the railway running from
Brugges to Antwerp. The extent of
the Mamage done is not known, how
ever. - Official admission by the French war
office last night that the Germans are
on the offensive in the Etain, St. Mi
hiel and Pont-a-Mousson region re
sulted in the greatest disappointment
in military circles today, pespite the
statement that the French attack had
been halted pending 'a redistribution
of forces, and the arrival of reinforce
ments, the" latest announcement from
Paris is taken here to mean that the
new French offensive has definitely
failed.
German attacks were reported by
the war Office at Les Esparges arid
in the forest of Le Petre while in the
Ailly wood and about Flirey violent
artillery engagements were reported.
The official announcement from Paris
stated that the German attacks were
repulsed, but this brought little sat
isfaction for the military critics here.
The belief was expressed that ' the
power of the French attack reached
its highest mark during last week and
that the siege-like trench fighting
would probably be resumed with the
Germans still retaining their wedge
extending into France.
