ut of ths state highway fund which
las been set aside to be applied on
he Columbia river highway between
toiler and Hood River providing Was
o county raises sufficient funds to
onstruct the highway between Mosler
ind Fairbanks.
In the event Wasco county decides
o make no provision It is the lnten
lon to apply the f 45,000 elsewhere.
Hie advisory board of the state hlfrh
iray commission has recommended that
t- be used west of Hood Klver in Hood
"liver county reducing the grade on
he Ruthton hill. It is not thought
hough that the commission will fol
oW this recommendation as it is un
lerstood that Governor Withycombe
as promised aid to other sections of
he state should the money not be
ipplled as originally intended.
At the meeting at The Dalles estl
nates of cost based on surveys made
y District Highway Engineer Elliott
ietween Mosler and The Dalles will

These estimates are as follows:
' Mosler to the top of Seven Mile hill
la .the present route, distance of
.1 miles on a seven per cent grade,
i 9,000. Mosler to the top of Seven
tile hill via Dry creek, an 'entirely
lew .route on a five per cent grade,
llstance 7.S miles, 161,000.
The total estimated cost of building
he new road 18.8 miles over the pres
nt route from Mosler to the Peters
en school house, four and one-half
n lies east of The Dalles is $91,700.
L'he total cost via the Dry creek route
S 1128,700.
The proposed bond issue is $300,000.
rhus- far- there has been opposition to
he Issue from Dufur and the southern
nd of the county over the division of
he funds.

Big Talkfest Held Under Aus
pices of East Side Business
Men's Club Luncheon, -
- River Goes Down.
' The Dalles, Or., May IT. The Colum
bia river receded four-tenths of a foot
luring; the past 24 hours. It regis,
tered 18.1 feet Tuesday morning.
The East Side Business Men's clun
yesterday had plenty of company at
Its bi-weekly luncheon in the grill
room of the Sargent hotel. It was
candidates' day, and so many candi
dates were present that when Chair
man W. Benefiel called on William
(Pike) Davis for a two-minute speech
that candidate for the bench addressed
his remarks to the other candidates
whom he urged to vote for him.
Mrs1. Q. L. Buland complimented the
men voters of Oregon so highly every
body blushed with pride, and no doubt
many of the candidates will vote for
her to go to tbe Republican National
convention.
Dan Kellaher was called Inadvert
ently by the chairman, and said that
strange as It might, seem he positively
was not a candidate this time. Over
30 aspirants presented themselves, or
by proxy, snd the accommodations of
the grill room were passed to standing
room only. H. V. Newlin, who aspires
to the legislature, said there are "No
real issues at stake; only, personali
ties." ' D. C. Lewis boldly defended
the alleged scriptural injunction to
"blow your own horn," and declared
that he enjoyed the process. R. S.
Farrel declared that his tax receipt for
$8304.61 entitled him to the honor of
going' to Salem. John C. McCue was
warned that "no roasts" was the rule,
and thereupon decided to quit talking.
Dan Kellaher had a noisy horn which
he pounded on when the two-minute
limit arrived, and performed this serv
ice with marked punctuality. He closed
the meeting by pulling out a big
bandana and starting- an enthusiastic
yell for "Teddy" Roosevelt.
Courts in Session Friday.
Next Friday, primary election day,
will be a Judicial holiday and none of
th Multnomah county courts will be
In session, according to Henry E. Mc
