IlBSSJ I.elsnd I. Tolasaa H. J. Taylor 1 . Ilrlli Kred MehneKer Manas! I'edr Vraak tiritsssa 1 an An Intimation that there is such a Possibility was hinted et by members of the comm'sslon during their ses sion this week. The commissioners admitted that ''everything is In the air, and nothing may come of It," but that It is possible. ',. This Is the reason why the commis sion has decided to call for b'ds for grading and graveling The Dalles Callfornla highway from Madras to the Deschutes county line, and why the commission informed the Jeffer son county court that "we will wait a while on the section north of Mad-j ras, bs you may have a new highway to the ocean." Two loads Not Needed. The Oregon Trunk line, built by Hill, cost approx'mately 15.000 000 and the O.-W. R. & It. line up the I canyon cost approximately $0,000,000 1 For some time there has been taiK , olng on between the "two railroads! about abandoning one of the lines. ; There Is no need for two railroads up tho Deschutes canyon into central Oregon. Both were built during a flsht between Hill and Harrimnn, the In'ter not being anx'otis to bluld h's : lire unl'l Hill favored the territory. It Is understood that the, Oregon Trunk wants the O.-W. It. & X. . to lay part of the cost of building the Ores-on Trunk tin the canyon. The O.-W. It. ft N. Is said' to be willing, to pay a percentage, but refuses to pay 50 per cent'of the $16.000 000. A! Considerable part of the Oregon Trunk expense Is represented by the steel bridge across the Columbia r:ver at Fttllbrldge. Immense SaV ojj Possible If the railroad companies can get together there will bo need for only one of the railroad grades, and the m whUth Is abandoned can be' con erted by the state highway comnils 'lon Into a splendid highway. The llstance from Madras to the Columbia -lver is about 110 miles. The Dalles allforn'a highway must get down to 'ho Columbia highway somewhere. If io of the ra'lroad grades can be olaced at the service of the highway -nmmlssion a fortune will be saved. or the grado could not be duplicated n the canyon for a million dollars. The maximum grade on state high ways Is S per cent, ine maximum Trade on the Oregon Trunk and the O.-W. It. & N. is 1 and a fraction per cent, the climb up the canyon being tuch that an automobile could travel on "high" from the Columbia highway to the town of M.ac1r;m. lirlriirro Already In Once the ties and rails are removed, "ery little work would be required to nut the roadbed In condition for high way traftlc. The roadbeds are about t it feet In width and might require a little widening or some additional dit ching, but the cost would be lus'gnl ficant compared with tho establish ment of such a grade. The most sub stantial bridges are already In. That the railroads would consent to turn over the abandoned right-of-way to tho state highway commis sion Is a natural conclusion, for the old rood would be worthless other wise. - It is posisblo, however, that the railroad ' might ask compensation within reason for tho right-of-wny. In any event If 'he roadbed Is abiin doned the commission can go Into curt with condemnation proceedings. "FACILITIES FOR VAMPING" TABOO BY NEW EDICT AT JEFFERSON HIGH SCHOOL 1 PORTLAND, Oct. I No silk stock ings, no Georgette crepe waists and no puffs of hair about the ears this Is the lastest edict governing the con duct of girls who attend Jefferson High school. "Buck to the simple life and none of the facilities for vamping," said one of the "sweet young things" who resent ed the nronunclamento. "Those dear long skirts that bind he ankles, you know. We musn't.wear them and longer. Skirts must be of neat onkle length. ' , "Tho rule about the hair was the worst. We must let It hang down our hacks. Borne of the girls can't obey this order. They wear switches. Pome thing was said, too, about tabooing a ditsh of rouge. "At any rate, we're going to ho prim I'rlscllla like maidens out at Jeffer son, and the dean says we will be giv en u book containing the rules for dress o that we can't forget any of them." ! k..M!l OAKLAND.

We are going at the mat ter along different lines,'' said Secre tary Hpooncr of the Central labor council, refuting a statement before the city council yesterday when It was said members of the labor council wuuld arm themselves If the police continued to club strike sympath rers.
