COUNTY COURT
ILL RETRENCH
LITTLE ROAD AND
BRIDGE WORK THIS YEAR.
Most of Needed Bridges Have Already
Been Built ami General Policy of
Economy Will Bo Followed Out
Mile of Macadam Being Construct
ed Near Weston Old Lee Street
Bridge May Bo Replaced With Mod
ern Structure.
There will be but little road and
bridge work done by the county
during the coming year and In con
trast with the past year the coming
one promises to be a rather light one
upon taxpayers. This will be partly
due to the fact that most of the need
ed bridges have now been built and
to the further fact that the members
of the court regard the time as Inop
portune for heavy expenditures exc
cept where such are absolutely neces
sary. "Lust year we had to build many
bridges and repair roads that had
been washed out by the floods," said
Commissioner Horace Walker to-day.
We built many steel bridges and made
other permanent improvements that
were needed. I believe the people
of the county were In good condition
to stand the expense."
"This year we will not have to make
many permanent Improvements be
cause the bulk of the work lias al
ready been done. Then there Is a
general tendency to economize at
present and the county will follow
that plan too."
At present the only-Important piece
of work being done "y the county Is
the construction of a mile of madam
road south of Weston. The farmers
of that vicinity are helping the coun
ty In the work and have done all the
hauling while the coanty provided the
crushed rock.
May Replace Lee Street Bridge.
Of bridge work there will be but
little during the coming year unless
the Lee street bridge Is replaced by a
modern structure. For some time
past the county court has been ready
to join with the city in rebuilding
that bridge and It may become Imper
ative to make the Improvement this
year The bridge was originally built
at the expense of the county, but the
ownership now rests Jointly with the
city and county.
According to Commissioner Walker
the bridge is In a dangerous condition
and It should be rebuilt this year.
If the Improvement Is undertaken It
will mean an expense of perhaps $20,
000 on the city and county combined
for the old bridge will be replaced by
an up-to-date steel structure.
GROVEK CLEVELAND, ONLY
EX -PRESIDENT, IS DEAD.
(Continued from Page 1.)
Independent, and "reform" movement
support.
He soon became known as the
"veto mayor," using that prerogative
fearlessly In checking public expendi
tures that he deemed unwise, Illegal
or extravagant. The reformed meth
ods of administering the city's affairs,
instituted by him while mayor, led to
his election In the following year as
governer of the State of Xew York,
by a majority of 192,000 votes over
his opponent, Judge Folger, the Re
publican Secretary of the United
States Treasury. All the traits of as
siduous Industry, unostentatious dig
nity, thoroughness and simplicity
noted in Mr. Cleveland's early career
were observable during his stay In
Albany.
His phenomenal success In the gu
bernatorial election, as Indicative of
the probability of his carrying Xew
York and of attracting the indepen
dent vote, "secured him the Democra
tic nomination for the presidency in
1884.
A Reluctant Candldute.
It has been said that Mr. Cleveland
was a reluctant candidate. His
friends had many consultations with
him on the subject, but be uniformly
discouraged rather than favored the
movement. It was Mr. Manning, who
served during part of Cleveland's first
term as Secretary of the Treasury,
who commanded the battle that re
sulted In Mr. Cleveland's nomination.
The Democrats had not elected a
president since the success of the Re
publican party In 1860.
Mr. Cleveland regarded tho con
test as doubtful at best, and had lit
tle Inclination Co round out a singu
larly successful career with p national
defeat. He had never been Intimate
with the Democratic leaders of na
tional fame, had traveled but little,
and had the greutest aversion to any
thing like ornamental parading In
politics.
Cleveland's nomination In Chicago
was accomplished against the most
aggressive opposition of Tammany
Hall, led by the veteran John Kelley.
Tammany was In absolute control of
the City of New York, where It re
quired nearly 100,000 Democratic ma
jority to give the electoral vote of the
state to a Democratic candidate. But
Manning and his associates compelled
Tammany to submit to have Its votes
In the convention cast for Cleveland
under the unit rule. The result was
that Cleveland was nominated to
make the fight against James O.
Blaine, the Republican candidate. In
the November election the popular
vote, cast for Mr. Cleveland was 4,
911,017, as against 4,848,334 cast for
Mr. Blaine.
Prosperity Marked Administration.
Cleveland's first administration was
marked by general prosperity; by the
admission of four new states (Wash
ington, Montana, North Dakota and
South Dakota) to the Union; and by
a freer use of the veto power than
had generally been exercised by other
Presidents. On the meeting of Con
gress, In December, 1887, he devoted
his annual message mainly to the ad
vocacy of a roduction In tariff duties
in order to prevent the further In
crease of tho surplus in the U. 8,
treasury. This message occasioned a
prolonged discussion of the principles
of protection, and furnished the issue
In the national political campaign of
18S8, when Mr. Cleveland was re
nominated by the Democrats, and
Benjamin Harrison was chosen as the
Republican candidate. Although the
former received a popular majority
larger than he had In 1884, the latter
had the greater number of electoral
votes and accordingly on March 4,
1889, Mr. Cleveland loft Washington
and removed to New York to engage
In the practice of law.
The defeat of 1888 was accepted by
most of the Democratic leaders as fi
nally disposing of Mr. Cleveland as a
national factor In the Democratic
party. But when 1892 rolled around
choose Its standard bearer, the Demo
cratic leaders were compelled by the
overwhelming sentiment of the Demo
cratic people to assent to his third
nomination. The contest In the Chi
cago convention of that year was a
desperate one. It was on that occa
sion that Bourke Cockran delivered
his memorable speech against Cleve
land. The nomination was bitterly
fought by the delegation from his
own state of New York. But on the
first roll call. Mr. Cleveland was nom
inated by a few votes more than the
necessary two-thirds. In the election
Mr. Cleveland received a popular
plurality of 380,810 over Mr. Harri
son. Second Administration.
Cleveland's second administration
was simply a continuation of the pol
icy that ruled him during his first
term, Xew questions arose of the
greatest importance, but he met them
all from precisely the same stand
point and with the same purposes
that always distinguished him In his
public career. The Democratic ma
jority In Congress was opposed to him
on the money issue and the antagon
ism at times became extremely bit
ter. His attitude in the Venezeulan
affair won him general praise as did
also his promptness and firmness in
suppressing the disorders growing
out of the great railroad strike that
centered In Chicago. But he had lost
caste with his own party and the
panic that swept the country during
his administration made him unpopu
lar with the people at large. Hence
there was no talk of his renomlnatlon
in 1896. When Mr. McKlnley suc
ceeded him In the presidency Mr.
Cleveland retired to Princeton, X. J.,
to spend the remainder of his days
In the quiet university town.
Mr. Cleveland was the only Presi
dent married in the White House,
where, on June 2, 1886, Frances Fol
som, the daughter of his old friend
and partner at the Buffalo bar, be
came his wife. Ruth, the first of
their children, was born Oct. 3, 1891,
at their home In Xew York city. She
was named after Mrs. Cleveland's
grandmother. During Mr. Cleve
land's second term as President she
was widely known throughout the
country us "Baby Ruth." On Jan
uary 7, 1904, she died at Princeton of
heart failure, occasioned by a mild
attack of diphtheria. Esther, the
second daughter, was born September
9, 1893, and has the distinction of
having been the only child of a Presi
dent born In the White House. Har
Ion, the third daughter, was born at
Buzzard's Bay, the Cleveland summer
home. July 7, 1895. There was great
rejoicing in the family when the three
girls were followed by a son. He
was born at Princeton October 28,
1897. With the announcement that
a boy had come to the house of Cleve
land the students at Princeton dubbed
him "Grover Cleveland, Jr." at once.
This name sticks to him, though -he
was christened Richard. Another boy
was born at Buzzard's Bay July 18,
1903. He was named Francis Grover
for his mother.

As a result of the June election, at
which so large a part of the state
went dry, officials of the Southern
Pacific are making preparations to
put the lid on trains through the dry
counties, says the Eugene Guard. Xo
liquor may bo sold on the trains while
they are passing through Lane or any
other of the dry counties of the state

miles, almost a day's run. Through
all this dreary waste of country, pas
sengers on trains will not be able to
get a drop to drink to assuage their
raging thirst.
The passenger department of the
Harrlman lines are preparing to have
printed on the menu cards In the
diners that drinks cannot be served
on board trains while passing through
dry counties. The same plan Is fol

crossed by railroads. Passengers

regulation, however, by buying a suf
