unaer tne title, "Tendencies in
American Road Legislation," Profes
sor F. G. Young, of the department of
economics and sociology, U. of .O.,
publishes a bulletin of interest to the
friends of good roads, and from which
some extracts are hereby made :
The American public exhibits a re
markable awakening during the last
fifteen or twenty years to its interests
and problems involved in its public
roads. The people throughout all sec
tions of the country are no longer so
unmindful as they were of the fearful
waste of energy in the use of unneces
sarily bad roads. They are becoming
aware that the listless but burdensome
efforts for the improvement and re
pair of roads, under unskilled super
vision and for an unresponsive public
have been largely thrown away ; and
yet these results attending road work
have been all but universal.
Rural communities are coming to
realize that not only the enjoyment of
better schools and better library and
mail privileges but also the adoption
of more intensive and more profitable
forms of farming, the taking advant
age of the most profitable time for
marketing and the periods of highest
prices, as well as commanding the
higher and more healthful forms of
recreation that recent inventions have
made available all these best things
in life are largely conditioned upon
securing good roads. It is dawning
upon all that good roads will be the
largest factor in restoring the balance
of advantages again to farm life and
in so doing will serve as the deepest
regenerating influence in our civiliza
tion. But good roads help the city
dweller only less than they do the
resident in the country. In a word,
they will help both the farmer and
him who exists in the artificial
environment of the city to make con
nections with just those vital things
in life heretofore denied to each. The
good road is an essential element in
the ideal life in either the city or
country. A good road will :
(1) Economize time and force iu
transportation between farm and mar
ket; (2) Enable the farmer to take ad
vantage of market' fluctuations in
buying and selling;
(3) Permit transportation of farm
products and purchased commodities
during times of comparative leisure;
(4) Reduce the wear and tear on
horses, harness and vehicles ;
(5) Enhance the market value of
real estate.
Making a most careful dollars-and-
cents estimate from inquires sent to
sixty of the most intelligent farmers
in forty counties located in the central
and northern parts of Indiana he finds
that good roads may be built and
maintained without its being a whit
harder on the pocketbook than in get
ting along with poor roads. With the
poor roads we have delays, accidents
and vexation of spirit to boot and with
good roads comfort and all the devel
opinental advantages of the higher
life.

Citizens of Yamhill County Take
Steps to Invoke Referendum
on Appropriation Bill.
The citizens of McMinnville met
Monday night and began the fight to
have the $1,000,000 appropriation bill
passed at the session of the Legislature
providing money for the state institu
tionsHouse bill 370 submitted to
the people. Petitions will bo prepared
and circulated among the voters for
signatures. These will be sent to
different parts of the state with the
request that they be circulated. The
number of signatures necessary to in
voke the referendum in Oregon is
4C80.
It is the intention to secure the
requisite number of signers as soon
as possible. It is said that at least
2000 signers can be secured in Yam
hill county alone.
The $1,000,000 appropriation measure
provides money for state institutions,
including the Normal Schools, chari
table, reform and penal establish
ments. State University, and Oregon
Agricultural College. The particular
protest throughout the state has been
against the Normal School clause
Of the entire appropriation, about
$300,000 was for various schools, in
cluding the State University.
The Tillamook Herald says that the
effects of the local option law In that
town are plain to those who are not
too blind to see. The paper claims
that as much liquor is consumed as
ever before, and that every boat from
Portland and Astoria brings in a new
supply, with the result that drunkeness
is on the increase, and young boys
not out of their 'teens are being doped
with the worst "rot-gut" whiskey
imaginable. Truly, a deplorable state
of affairs, if correctly reported.

ine largest crowd or the year
greeted the Willamette University
basketball players last Saturday even
ing, when they met the'Dallas College
team in the Dallas gymnasium. The
evening was ideal, and the promise of
a good game drew an enthusiastic
crowd of Dallas rooters, Salem also
sending several hackloads of young
people to cheer the University boys to
victory. The game resulted in a score
of 25 to 6 in favor of Dallas.
While the victory for the home team
was decisive, every point made was
stubbornly contested by the visitors,
During the first half, Dallas failed to
connect with the basket properly and
succeeded in getting only two field
goals, but were so perfect in their
guarding that the University for
wards scarcely had a look-in. The
first half lasted only 15 minutes, and
resulted in a score of 7 to 1 in favor of
Dallas.
With the beginning of the second
half, the home team, with splendid
team-work and their old-time goal
thro win , soon had the score moving
upward at a rapid rate. This half
continued for the full 20 minutes with
the snap and swiftness that character
ized its beginning.
Shaw, at center, played one of the
best games ever seen in Dallas, scor
ing five baskets over his opponent.
Reynolds and Teats also played a fine
game as forwards, Reynolds scoring
two baskets and Teats three. Ford
and Morton, at guard, held down
their men m a way that was good to
see. The line-up and points made by
each player follows :
Dallas Willamette
Teats (9) forward Miller
Reynolds (4) . . . forward Judd (0)
Shaw (10) center .Ruder
Ford guard Whipple
Morton (2) guard Nelson

A. Ford; timekeeper, Hill; scorer,

The Dallas team will play a return
game with O. A. C. in Corvallis to
night. If successful, as the rooters
confidently predict they will be, the
boys can again justly claim the
championship of Oregon.
SECOND TEAM WINS.
The college second team defeated
the Salem high school' boys in the
Gymnasium, Tuesday evening.by the
close score of 15 to 12. A fair-sized
crowd was in attendance, and the
game was highly enjoyable. The
Salem players were outclassed both in
height and weight, but were quick on
their feet and played a plucky game.
Their good-natured and gentlemanly
manners won the warmest admiration
of the sjectators, and visitors and
home boys came in for an equal share
of applause for every good play made,
The Dallas second team will meet the
Portland Tigers in this city tomorrow
night, and a swift game Is anticipated.
