April 25th has been set aside as “Good Roads Day”
in Oregon and on that date it is expected that not less
than 2,000 husky men from the Portland Ad. Club and
similar organizations will don overalls, arm themselves
with pick and shovel, grab their trusty dinner-pail and
go forth to do a more or less serious day’s work on the
roads. The O. W. U. N. Ry. will run a train of Hat
cars to various points on the Columbia River Highway
and the gas company and various contracting Arms
will loan the necessary tools. Governor West and the
county road officials will be present to see that the
amateur laborers do no loafing on the job. All other
parts of the state are expected to fall in line and the
aggregate result should be many miles of well im­
proved roads.
Friend Abel Uglow appeared before the city council
the other evening and scored us for asserting that the
city of Dallas with being mulcted of several hundred
dollars of taxpayers’ money in paying the price It has
for his land to be used as a septic tank site. We are
not blaming Mr. Uglow for the stand he takes in the
matter, as all of us want the best possible price for
what we sell. Neither can we really blame the mem­
bers of the committee. One of them was a gentleman
not a resident of our city or in any way conversant with
the value of its land, while the other two committee­
men own land in close proximity to the site purchased
and naturally were somewhat biased in their judgment.
The committee should have been made up of taxpayers
of the town and entirely disinterested parties. Land
or any thing else always looks considerably more
valuable to the owner thereof than it does to any one
else.
Some wag of a newspaper correspondent a few
weeks ago published in a number of newspapers
throughout the country a paragraph that has brought
thousands of letters to the director of the mint from
every section of the country, asking that he send them
$34.90 as his or her share of the per captia circulation
of themoney of the United States. The correspond­
ent stated in his dispatch that that amount would be
due every man, woman and child in the United States
if Uncle Sam’s money were divided up, and thousands
have actually believed that by writing to the treas­
ury department they would receive the money. A
form letter in reply to the vast number of these letters
has been gotten up in the bureau of the mint to dis­
abuse the minds of those who were misled, but it has
kept several clerks busy for many days smply address­
ing the envelopes tothe misguided applicants, many
of whose letters begging that the money be sent at
once are pathetic.
A pleasurable and instructive occasion at the Meth­
odist church last Sunday evening was the introduction
into the pulpit of a man oi the world to make tne talk
of the evening. Rev. Hennett hud prevailed upon Bar-
rister W. L. Tooze, Jr., to give an address on the trial,
conviction and execution of Jesus as viewed by a
lawyer from the standpoint of law. A crowded house
greeted the speaker, and his remarks on the subject
were logical and backed by authorities hard to dis­
claim. Mr. Tooze went into the subject deeply, and
the conclusions he arrived at met the approval of all
his hearers. He clearly demonstrated that Jesus was
irregularly tried and without warrant of law, such as
was provided by the old Jewish courts-- generally the
greatest sticklers for decorum and justice of all courts
of the times, not excepting the Roman courts, the
founders of considerable of our basic principles of law
of the present day. While Mr. Tooze deplored the
manner of arrest and trial, yet he held that the ver­
dict was the only one allowable by the evidence, when
even the accused testified against himself, and vir­
tually admitted the great crime of blasphemy, should
he not have been the person he claimed.
