County Judge J. W. Maloney and Commissioners Horace Walker and H. M. Cockburn, constituting the Uma tilla county court, are planning to at tend the annual convention of the connnty courts of the state, which is to bo held in Portland December 12- 14, Inclusive, at which topics of in terest to the different counties will be discussed. Principal among these topics will be "good roads" and all or ganizations and persons interested in this work will be lnvnea xo auena. In speaking of the coming meet, D. W. Wonacott. president of the state organization, has said: "There are many vital questions to ie discussed at this meeting, which are at this time of great interest to the reopl cof the state at large. Prominent among which may be men tioned, the permanent improvement of our highways and the necessity of a mbore un'form method of improve ment throughout the state. PrirtTe Construction Work. "Another vital question which is daily forcing itself upon the people of this state, is a more permanent method of bridge construction. Our old wooden bridges, espec'ally the longer spans, are rapidly being re placed by steel and reenforced con crete structures. "It is our purpose at this conven tion to have with us some good speakers in support of a more scien tific and permanent method of bridge construction as well as road building thus giving our commissioners and the convention a more thorough knowledge and education along these lines of improvement. I say educa tion, for indeed we are living in an age of higher education along the line of a more modern and scientific meth od of road construction as well as bridge building. "Another important matter for dis 'cussion will be road legislation. In this question alone to my mind is the key to the whole system. Speaking for myself, I would favor a law cre at'ng a state road exten ling from the Oregon state line north, through Port land, thence south through the Wil lamette valley, on south to the Cali fornia line. "I would also favor a state road from some point on the Oregon state line north and extending south through eastern Oregon to the Cali fornia line. To Talk of Convicts.

There are many excellent things to be given the public through moving pictures that are interesting, instructive and enter taining and then there are other pre sentations that have the opposite ""ef fect. Perhaps we should hold to the more philosophical view that it takes the good, bad and -indifferent to make up this old world of ours. But, the more of the good we have in it the better off we are." j v-irrt sun e; i.:a i.j u wk m t- r r?v faa 7& 33J XMCA rziK I Ft J ) wwm H Mi Jy O 2 -r.W You are counting the days to Merry Christmas.

County Commissioner Horace Walk er Is able to be on the streets after confinement to hi9 home for several days by an injury received last Thurs day when he was kicked by a horse We was in his corrals at his Stanfield ranch and was struck in the back by the heels of one of his horses when it k'eked at another animal. He suf fered two broken ribs and, although the fractures are healing rapidly, they still cause the coffissioner consider able pain. (Special Correspondence.) Stanfield, tire.. Nov. 27 There was a well attended meeting of farmers who I've on the "Meadows" across the Umatilla river from Stanfield, hold Saturday evening at the home of Zo eth Houser for the purpose of discuss ing the malter of the proposed west extension to the Umatilla project. O. I). Teal was elected chairman. John Dorn secretary, and G. L. "Hurd, as sistant secretary. It was the consnsus of opinion that the agitation of the subject of the proposed extension had retarded the development and Im provement of valuable lands that the reservoir for the extension would like ly cover, also that serious considera tion should be given to the John Day project, which contains lands that would be more easily handled under irrigation and could be watered much more cheaply than the lands under the western extension of the Umatil la project. It was voted to invite the state board of control1 to visit th's sec tion of the country and look over the situation so as to acquaint them selves with actual conditions, espe cially with regard to the lands that will be covered by the reservoir of the proposed extension, thousands of acres of which are now In a high j state of cultivation and occupied by i beautiful homes. The chairman and I the secretary were instructed to draft resolutions setting forth the reasons) for carefully investigating the pro- posed extension and the development of the John Day project instead, a copy of these resolutions to be sent j to the various officials who have aj voice in matters of this nature and to , the newspapers. The farmers are i thoroughly in earnest In this matter and are determined to get a hearing and to do everything ire their pow"er to obtain the recognition that is duo them, especially in view of the fact that the proposed extension to the Umatilla project is really beneficial chiefly to two wealthy corporations.
