DID HBS. BKVMFIELD
POSE AS MARRIED HEBCI
When news of the suicide of Dr.
Brumfield reached Portland a Journal
reporter sought to interview bis 'Widow
at an east side apartment house, where
she . waa said to be employed. Her
mail had been forwarded in care of
Howard Afozena at the apartment
house address. .
Upon inquiry a woman who bore a
close resemblance to photograph of
Mr. Brumfield answered to the name
of Mrs. Mosena. she explained that
ahe had only been at the apartment
house a week and waa not familiar
with the names of the people in the
house but if Mrs. Brumfield was living-there
she did not know it
"Are you Mrs. Brumfield T" ahe waa
asked.
DEFIES SHE WAS VIDO'VT
"Well, hardly," said thw -woman with
m.' tranquil smile. "I know nothlns
about her and my husband Is not
here." She was decidedly not Inter
ested In the Brumf ield's. But she
never flicked an eyelash. :
Further inquiry disclosed the Wet
that the telephone number left by the
husband at the office of the apartment
house manager wa that of Brumfield
niece, Mrs. Alomto Spencer, to whom
Brumfield had sent a njessawe before
his death. . v . j
"Mrs. Mosena" was questioned again
in regard to the Telephone number.
Did! bar husband know Mrs. Brum,
field? She did not know. Had he
gone to Mrs. Spencer's, house? Well,
really, he had not confided his plana
to her. In fact she facetiously added
that, it might be possible that he; "had
gone off with .that woman." Ha had
lived in Salem and he had coma from
the East and ahe did not know all
his friends.-, .
WOMAK TJJf PERTCRBED
; Very courteous-was "Mrs. Mesona.?"
She was as unperturbed aa a summer's
da y Her , hands rested quietly la her
lap as alia rocked' gently back and
forth i a. lew chair in. the manager's
office during the process of queatjou-'
tng. rShe waa politely sorry that ahe
waa tuikble to be of service in finding
Mrsv Brumfield, but, unfortunately ahe
knew nothing- She was a stranger in
the city and knew little of the affairs
of the Northwest, it seemed.
This wa September ; 18, fha day
Brumfield banged himself ta Sua cell at
Balem. The Mosenaa had been em
ployed a little more man a week at the
apartment . house .and they had with
them a child.who was very moody and
who had nothing to do with the other
children of the nfUghborheod. ' He waa
said-to 'be- either Mr. Mosena'a little
brother or that of he uaband, the
neighbors, were not quite aura. . i , ,
MRS, BPE7ICEB KOTXFIXTi
- Inquiry at the home of Mrs. Alonso
C. Speneer, who-earlier in the day had
received the massage of Bromfleld'a
deatxt and carried , it to. tie widow,
proved that Mrs. Brumfield could not
be seen, . Her whereabouts war in
definite. . . .",'-!
The Mrs. Mosena mentioned to Mrs.
Spencer .by the rcrortr swas referred
to aa -'Mra. Brumfield' alster." It
was agreed Chaf they resembled each
other but, farther inquiry was fruit
less. - , .i. -i ,

"I have charged and I dlreetiy repeat
that there haa been and la gross st
travagance in the state highway de
partment. A year Ago Oregon had
638 miles ef hard surfaeed roads
ageOnst milos in the state of Wash-
ingrton, our neighbor state. Botb
states had at that time many miles or.
graveled roads, hot these in Washing

of thia kind- But up'to that time Ore

ago before the Washington State Good
Reads association at Taooma. The re
tiring president of the association, Mr.
Buriingame, said:
."In Oregon there is now a consider
able discussion with . reference to se
verely limiting; loads upon the bard sure
faces. In fact, tnta la , a constant
theme for discussion there. : It is
claimed by one of the highway com
missioners that tha motor true It la de
stroying their road - and either the
trueks must be kept off the road en
tirely or limit the load, to the statutory
requirement and the ; speed to about
10 miles per hour. 4 f - j
"Oregon has a law limiting loads. In
eluding weight of vehicles, to 18.800
lbs., while in Waahlngtra the limit is
88.000 lbs. Frequently, however, loads
In Western Washington, consisting !of
saw-lors. have been ( found to weigh
from 80.000 to 80,000 IbA, while trucks
carrying saw-logs weighing . 45,000 ibA
are-very common. And note that this
ia exclusive of the truck a weight. Our
roads have not broken down under
tbeaa very heavy stresses ; whOe the
Oregon roads, by the admlaaion and
statement of officials there.: have
failed under loada approximately half
the weight of ours." . ; . - ? - , ,

of permanent bard surfaced' road com
pleted in Tillamook county and Accept
ed oy tna state in peeetnner, 1318. at a
cost of 8102.098.08, or more than 820
OOOaper mile, broke down badly within
three years, and in 1981 a new contract
was, let for surfacing and reconstruct

the original coat.
Tha highway known as the-Rex-
Tigard road waa paved and completed
in the fall of 1918. In less -than three
years the road had broken down so
ths.t bids for Its reconstruction were
called for. These bids were. for-more
