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

them." ! k..M!l
OAKLAND. Oct. . With crowds of
strike sympathisers here often openly
defying the police and with riots be
coming more and more frequent, a call
for troops Is predicted today.
"The strikers do not Intend to arm
themselves. 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.
Bpooner Intimated that there will be
an attempt to get aid from cnrmns
international. ' He said the labor coun
cil had decided to urge nil a'tiVn-- I
with the council to withdraw depi slx
frnm all banks except the bank of
Italy. He added that r,0 labor or
ganizations and their members will do
this.
