People Follow Fads and Buy Wheels Mostly Advertised One is the Best One Year, "Another Next Licenses and Roads. There are a few people In thlB city whoreallze the extent to which the bicycle riding habit has taken hold of the people and nine out of ten would be surprised If told that more than ten per cent of the population are cyclists owning their own wheels, yet a careful estimate by some of the leading dealers of the city goes to show that not only ten, but much nearer 15 per cent of the people of Pendleton own wheels, It being esti mated that fully 800 wheels are in ' daily use In this city. I Of these it is hard to estimate ! which variety has proved the favorite although the banner seems to rest be ! tween the Cleveland, Rambler and Crescent makes, with Crawford, Day, Tribune, Sterling and a number of the cheaper makes running close for colSir of T wheel belng'sola" at a -km price, Imt srtee-tSe reancuon of the price on the Cleveland, Ram bler, and other "standard" manes, there has been a noticeable falling off in 'Crescent sales. "Then the Crawford came In for a run, closely followed by the imperial, the Storllng. the Day. and more re cently the Ra cycle. "Next year there will probably be somo other make advertised exten sively and this will have the big Tun, owners of wheels changing them, or gelling cheap to Invest In the latest fad." Few Take License. f Of the S00 or more cyclo owners of this city but 191 have paid license to ride on the walks, the greater por tion of the riders of the city declar ing that the privilege of using the boards .is not of value sufficient to make it worth while to pay the ?3 license imposed. Move For Cycle Paths. Of late, however, there has been considerable talk of organizing a Wheelmen's Club, or presenting a pe tition to the city council to have all wheels licensed to the extent of about $1.50 or $2 per year, and using the money thus raised for the purpose of building cyclo paths such as are in vogue in Spokane, Seattle, and Tnese paths nave GOOD ROADS MOVEMENT.

Abbott's visit, numerous letters asking more detailed informa tion have been received by the Cham ber of Commerce and Board of Trade at Portland. Invitations will be sent out to all of .the county Judges and commission ers In the state to be present at the convention, to open October 15. Sec retary Reed, of the Chamber of Com merce, will furnish a list of names to the government department of good roads, and Director Dodge and Mr. Abbott will send invitations at the expense of the government There will be probably a number of special invitations, for which the chamber will bear the expense. Secretary Reed is now correspond ing with other commercial organiza tions in the Northwest so as to gain, their cooperation in getting the gov ernment good roads train here when the convention is held. The train of 10 cars of modern road machinery is in charge of government experts, and they will build several miles of road in or near Portland, as a lasting ob ject lesson of the value of economic machinery and methods. The sample road, of course, will be a present to the city and county, and the wear and tear from teams will tell in time the practical worth of the methods em ployed. The government will use such local material as is at hand. In whatever section it operates it al ways uses the local material, thus demonstrating that the things near est at hand can be used in building cheap roads, once the people become educated in the scientific manner of utilizing them. In return for the road built, the city of Portland must fur nish the material and the necessary teams and common labor to do the work; the government stands all the other expenses. Good roads advocates believe the convention will mark an Important era in the development of the North west. It will start a now road cam palgn along economic and practical lines. According to Mr. Abbott, thousands of dollars are thrown away every year by individual counties, -through not understanding how to construct good roads out of the local material at half the cost that is aid Good roads are such an important feature to the development of the commerce of a country that there is a well defined feeling that the gov ernment should not only advise as to the best methods of building them but appropriate money and build them whenever needed. It would stop many small leaks in the different counties, sometimes caused by grafts and more often through lack of knowledge, and, best of all, cost .the taxpayers a very small fraction of the taxes he now pays. Having the machinery, the scientific knowledge and the experience, the government could go ahead and build roads at a nominal cost. Those interested in the good roads movement think that Borne such action is necessary before any decided progress 1b made, and are studying the question from every point of view, bo as to formulate some practical plan.
