f THE I OREGON DAILY JOURNAL, PO RTLAND,- THURSDAY. JUNE A 1819. PROGRAM OF STATE IS DEFEATED BY THE OUTSIDE COUNTIES Voters 'of Counties Other Than Multnomah More Than Offset! Favorable i Lead In! Portland. SUMMARY NOW POSSIBLE Good Roads Measures All Carry, 'Together With Educational Aid, Irrigation Bonds Guarantee. (Continued From Fm pn.) th passage of the Roosevelt highway bill. ' I With th vote In and th rsuRs defl ' r.itely known it is now possible to take etock and determine-Just what has been accorn pushed In the; way of lawmaking by the election. 4 j KOA MKASUBES STjyyOBTEI One outstanding feature of the voting is the practical uniformity with which. the voters stood behind all those mea sures whieJi had to do with, the construc tion of roads and highways. The run away flight of the Roosevelt highway bill to victory is probably the most sur prising Incident of the voting. ,The prac tical uniformity with, which; it was sup ported In Eastern Oregon while at the same time that section was in many "places unfavorably inclined to the re construction bill, carrying 12,000,000 for Irrigation reclamation as It did. Is one of the anomalies of the election. The passage of the Roosevelt hlgh- . way bill will make available a bond issue of $2,500,000 for the construction of a paved highway along the coast from . the northern to the southern boundary of the state, provided the federal gov ernment adds a, like sum to. complete the work and agrees to take, over con trol and maintenance of the: road. MARKET BILL IS BUBAL Tho market road tax bill! second In the- favor of the voters, was; essentially a rural road measure. It provides that direct tax of 1 mill shall be levied throughout the state for the construc tion of market roads. The various coun- : tlea which may take advantage of the provisions of the law will be entitled to at least the amount of money - they produce under the tax, provided they add to -it an equal amount raised by direct ' county levy for road construction pur poses. It is estimated that the bill -will yield an annual revenue of approxi mately $1,000,000 on the basis of ' the present assessed valuation of the state . as, a whole. COTJ2TTT AMEIfDMEKT EXPLAINED Multnomah county is the one county in the state which will noti receive its proportionate share of the funds raised In the county, due to the limitation of the measure which prohibits any county receiving more than 10 per cent' of the total amount raised. Multnomah's con- tributton to the state fund will be ap proximately one third of the! total. The county bonding amendment, which comes third from the top of the, ballot, simply Increased the power of the various counties of the state to go Into debt for road ; construction from X per cent of the assessed value of the property fn the eountyto 6 per cent.- In . other words, the adoption of the amend ment makes It possible to issue county road, bonds In an, amount equal to 4 per cent of the assessed value , of the county proerty radre- than ,'under the present constitutional limitation. . . The soldiers educational 5 bill pro vides. In brief, that any soldier, sailor or marine' meeting the requirements of the law as to enlistment and service, may be given' not: to" exceed $800 to assist him In financing his education In any educational. Institution of the state, either public , or privaje. ULKIGATIOX CSTJAJtASTT BILL The Irrigation guaranty amendment , Is one of the most important measures of recent years so far as its probable effect upon the Irrigation and drainage of lands which have been brought under the district law of the state is con cerned. It provides, in brief,, that ,the state may issue bonds, when, any, ir rigation or drainage district may re quest such action, to meet the payment of Interest on district bonds.: but ' for a period of not to exceed five . years. Before th state takes such action, however, ltla required In the amend ment that an exhaustive examination ef the project be made in order to de-J tannine the safety and solvency of th district. The amount advanced by the state Is to b secured by inter cat bearing certificates of indebtedness issued by. th district, and the entire sum. principal and interest, is, to be returned by the district to the state treasury. , - WILL HELP B03TD PRICES It is believed by the sponsors of the amendment that . its adoption will mean th sale of irrigation and drainage district securities at par or above, where under the conditions heretofore exist ing they have been selling at a dis count, sometimes as high as 10 per cent.

You cannot ifford to experiment with your health and before trying any remedy you are justified In de manding proof of what' It has accom plished in cases similar to your own. Many people are In need of tonic at this time of year to build up the blood and strengthen weak nerves, but it must be a safe tonic, free from alcohol and stimulating' drugs. It must giv strength, not merely afford temporary relief, but must build up the system and enable the various or gans to act as nature intended so that when the treatment Is finished it will not be necessary to take medicine of any kind so long as the ordinary laws of health are followed. For many years Dr. Williams' Pink Pills have been a household remedy not only in America, but throughout the civilized world. One of the first signs that greeted the eyes of Amer ican soldiers in France were adver tisements of "Pilules Pink pour Per sonnes Pales." The world-wide use of this American remedy can be ac counted for onlyby the merit that these wonderful, blood-making pills possess. Thousands of statements fron grateful patients have been published, all'of them true and care fully authenticated. AH of the 'peo ple who made these statements were somebody's neighbors, but the fol lowing recent cases are those .of your own neighbors, people living right here in Portland, and they cn easily be Investigated. They show what can be accomplished in many condi tions of ill health br building up the blood and strengthening the nerVes. how many symptoms such aa dis ordered digestion, sleeplessness, sick headache, pallor of the face and lips, weakness after slight exertion and a tendency to worry over trifles are caused by thiir blood. :""V. Do not become discouraged If your case has not been benefited by other treatment, but read these statements and try the tonic- pHU that, have ; ac complished .such wonderful results under the same conditions. ' Rhumatisin Vanished Among the Portland " residents who strongly endorse Dr. Williams' Pink Pills is Mr. Charles R. Williams of No. 76S Second Street, and he 1$ particularly anxious that his , friends should, know what the. remedy did for him. . , , "Exposure to all kin di of weather while l was in a run-down condition. says Mr., Williams, "brought on sciatic rheumatism,. Th trouble started in my right hand and as it grew worse the pain, spread to my arms and tegs. ALLIES PLAN TO -GIVE EARLY REPLY Big Four Listen to Paderewski - Explain Demands of Poles and Why War Goes On. Paris, June 6.Th allies' answer . to the counter proposals will be handed to th Germans bfor June 12, j it was learned from an authoritative source today! . ' j The big four today heard premier Paderewski regarding upper j Silesia, which some of the allied delegate now advocate being retained by Germany instead of being awarded to j Poland. The premier also presented his vision of continued fighting between the Poles and Ukrainians after his assuranoe that hostilities would cease. . . The big four have decided to can In th Turkish peace .delegates, according to an unofficial report today. The ex act date has not been fixed. TURKS GET WO YOICB From the same source It was learned that the Turks will be considered merely as "witnesses.' rather than fully ac credited plenipotentiaries. This was ac cepted as indicating th Turks will be given practically no opportunity for dis cussion of terms and will have to ac cept th conditions exactly as drawn Up by the allies. America's part In drawing up the Turkish treaty 1 expected to be con fined largely to an advisory note, al- . though th question of accepting man datories over former Turkish. territories probably will figure In the discussions. The question of modification of 'th German treaty continued to occupy th attention of the big four, as well as the experts of their respective countries. The American experts are standing on the same ground they did 'at the start of the negotiations. A few days ago it was believed the proposed changes rested largely with Premier Lloyd George, l ut the British are said to have executed such a complete about-face in favor of th modifications which fit tn, with th original contentions of the Americana that there is little left for the Americans to do but to bring th British and French closer together. PREPARE JOIXT REPORT The joint report of th American, Brit ish, French and Italian experts was ex pected to be turned over to th big four in time to permit an answer to the Ger man counter proposals this week, ECONOMIC BOARD OF ALLIES HOLDS MEETING .- Paris, June 5.

"It was reported that pursuant to a request of the council ther allied mili tary authorities had taken steps to pre vent the Germans from again holding up supplies destined for . Poland, via Danzig.

First the pain was in my right side and then in the left, and as it changed it gen erally left a sore spot about the size of a quarter. The p$tn gradually un nerved me and I became very irrit able. I lost considerable weight and my appetite was poor. "My father had used Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Indigestion and the remedy had helped him so much that I decided to try it My appetite improved-while- I was still taking the 1 first box and my color was better. Gradually the pain became less severe until it disappeared entirely from my body, though it was some little time before the , soreness left m. My nerves are much stronger and I have regained practically all of my weight." The purpose of Dr. Wi'lirns' Pink Pills is to build up the blood. They do this one thing and they do it welt They are for this reason an invaluable remedy in diseases arising from bad or deficient blood, as rheumatism, neuralgia, after effects of the grip, sick headaches and fevers. Brok down From Overwork "I want people to know about Dr, Williams' Pink Pills." says Mrs. John Scrutton of No. 114 East 47th street, "because a remedy that can help any one as it did me. is heeded by many other people. "I suffered a complete breakdown in health following months of over work. I had been losing weight for some time and my blood was so thin that I had no color and suffered fre quentiy from dizzy spells and head aches. - These spells were 'accom panied by the appearance of black spots before my eyes and it seemed as - though my nerves were, onr the verge of giving out. I couldn't sleep, my appetite was poor and even thmost carefully selected and pre pared rood disagreed with me. v "1 had often heard of Dr. WilHams' Pink Pills and one day ! procured a box determined to give the remedy a fair trial, r im short time there was a remarkable change for -th better in W condition and' was so much encouraged that I continued ,the treatment.

In the meantime, however. Judge Watson had still further Incurred the enmity of O'Brien and Maloney by re fusing to pay them mor than S cents a line for the publication of the .delin quent tax list in 1915. Both asked for 5 cents a line, and Maloney of the Coos Bay Times sued Watson and the county to force the payment at the rate of 6 cents, losing both suits' in th circuit court before Jury, and In the supreme court on appeal.' ATTACKS BECLOUD ISSUE ' As a result of this attitude on the part of Judge Watson. O'Brien and Maloney started out, personally and through the medium of their newspaper, to. encom pass his downf alt , They camouflaged their real purposer by charging Judge Watson with being arbltrary, extrava gant and incompetent," and filled their columns with dally attacks upon him on these grounds, sot beclouding th issue that the $10,000 suit and th other ac tions of the judge in standing between them and th county-treasury wer ob scured and lost sight of in the publio mind. It will be. Interesting to watch now that Judge Watson has been recalled, what will be the fate of the $10,001suit against O'Brien, hia wife, Maloney and Cates. In a similarSsuit, recently de cided by the supreme court of Washing ton, it was held that" th county could follow such unlawfully collected money Into th possession of whomsoever might hav received it and recover it for the treasury. In the face of this.. andl sim ilar decisions, there Was but UttlA doubt concerning th outcome of 4he Coos Bay suit, so long as Judge Watson remained in thepfTic of county judge. With a new Judge, elected through the etforu of O'Brien, Maloney and their friends, the result is mor problematical.
