EXPERIENCE IN ROAD BUILDING ness to raise the necessary funds by taxation is a fair proposition to the rest of the state. The authority is asked in a bill submitted to the vot ers of the state at larga and It la probably one of the few measures that will carry. It cannot be success fully argued that an enabling act to permit one county to tax itself to accomplish some desirable or needful purpose, which the people of that county deem essential and important, should not be leglallzed by the rest of the slate. The Electrical Fair will benefit the entire Northwest and ad vance the development of Portland arid the entire state a hundred fold. Moonshine stills are responsible for not less than 25 per cent of the fires in the forests of the Pacific Northwest, according to reports. These stills are usually located in inaccessitde places In the woods, where the dry timber and brush will take fire from the smallest spark and get beyond control before the fire fighting forces discover the smoke. Unmistakable evidence of moonshine has been found in the newly burned areas. •> NEWS OF NEARBY TOWNS ♦ W ith this experience to go by, •> q.

Oregon has expended over >50.000, 000 in the past five yearrf building the first units of one of the finest highway systems* in the United States. It has profited by the experience of many other states from the stand point of laying pavement that re quires a minimum of maintenance cost. It has been able to profit by the experiences of other states which have laid many hundreds of miles of rigid base pavement having no shock absorbing qualities and the surface of which has not been protected by a coating of some shock absorbing substance. The burden of maintaining per manent highways Is emphasized by the proposal of the Highway Com The cost of warming the famous mission of California to raise an ad zoo, established by the kaiser In Ber ditional >65,000,000 for “nialnten lin, is too expensive and unless priv ance of the roads throughout the ate funds are forthcoming It will state. close on October 1.
