OVERWHELMINGLY FOR WILSON a UT of 1692 voters partici OfJ participating in a straw vote taken at the regis tration booths in Portland 813 expressed a choice for Wilson, 468 for Hughes and 329 for Roosevelt, the remainder being scattered. The voting covered three days and being under the auspices of a republican newspaper, the Oregonian. was not intended as a compli ment to the president, though it turned out to be such. If the vote was representa tive of public sentiment it nhows an overwhelming feel ing in favor of Wilson's reelec tion. Against a single repub lican opponent Wilson would have received a still heavier vote. Obviously all those who voted for Hughes would not have voted for any other re publican candidate, while it is probable many of the Roose velt supporters would have T the road meeting here Jfpl Saturday the subject ot the interstate bridge at Vancouver was discussed by one of the speakers and the question was raised as to who pays the interest on the bridge bonds. For the benefit of those de siring such information the East Oregonian has investigat ed the matter and herewith presents the facts as shown by the session laws of 1913 and 1915. The substance of the matter is that while Multno mah countv is obligated for the bonds and makes direct payment of the interest to the bond holders the county is al lowed to deduct each year the amount of the interest from its pro rata of the state tax. For such deductions the state is to be reimbursed out of the net earnings of the bridge, if it earns anything. Chapter 349 of the 1913 laws relates to an act (H. B, 604) relating to interstate i bridges. The following is part I of Section 3 relating to the matter at point: Section 3 Whenever any county In ' this state shall provide for the issu- ani of bonds for the construction of ! any bridge, bridge approach, or via duct to be constructed to and (or) - over the boundary line of the state. or to any ton over any stream, riv er or body of water constituting such ; boundary line, such county shall be entitled to de'luct from the amount of the taxes that such county Is re- i iijir-(l by law annuatjy to COHtCt and ' pay over to the HtHte under section 343. 3644, 3645 ana 384 of Lord's Oregon Laws the amount of the an nual Interest accruing upon such bonds ssi h ve.ir thereafter during the ) life of such bonds. The legislative act specifi cally relating to the interstate fridge was passed by the 1915 legislature. It is found in Chapter 328 of the 1915 ses sion laws. The act provides among other things that 25 per cent of the net earnings from the bridge shall go to : Multnomah county to be used in an Interstate Bridge Sinking 3 . .... . hi ..k mm - DETiCHnCrfT OF Ctfft&AHZlSTi SOLDI CHS Here is shown a detachment of Carranza's troop resting by the roadside after a march. These troops have aided the Americans in the hunt for Villa. Fund, which fund shall be used for the sole purpose of re placing or reconstructing the bridge at such time as the re placing or reconstruction shall become necessary. The law provides that the remaining 75 per cent of the net earnings of the bridge shall be turned over to the state each year to reim burse the state for the amounts deducted by Multnomah coun ty in the form of interstate payments. It seems evident from these legislative acts that Multno mah county is obligated for the payment of the bonds but the state is practically obligated for the interest, though there is a possibility of the state's being reimbursed for the interest out NOW IS THE TIME TO STRIKE at this rate of interest on Ore gon lands.

The house com mittee has reported in favor ot 20 per cent for the Oregon school fund and Congressman Sinnott will endeavor to have this increased to 40 per cent. In the senate, Senator Cham berlain has a bill giving 40 per cent to schools. As the real test has not yet come in either branch of congress message? of support for the 40 per cent provision for schools will be of the earnings of the bridge, very timely. Such messages provided the bridge makes a show sentiment in favor of the profit. i school fund and the extent of The facts relating to the in-1 the showing made may be a terest payments on the inter- very important factor in the state bridge will probably be ! outcome of the legislation as an news to most people, it being jtffort is being made by certain (he general impression that parties to show that sentiment Multnomah county has to pay in Oregon is divided upon the the interest.

Englewood, III. "While going through the Change of Life I suffered iWiin neauacnes, ner vousness, flashes of meat, and 1 suffered so much 1 did not know what I was doing at times. I spent $1900 on doc tors and not one did me any good. Ono day a lady called at my house and said she had been as sick as 1 was atone time, and Lydfa E. Pink- U ,.

Physicians undoubtedly did their best, battled with this case steadily and could do no more, but often the most scientific treatment is surpassed by the medicinal properties of the good old fashioned roots and herbs contained in Lydia E. j Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.
