ON STRIKE-REJECT
,.':XEW YORK, Jan. 10. The strike
committee of the Marine Workers'
Affiliation uuunimouslv voted today
to reject the rjroiiosnl of A. H. Smith,
eastern regional director of railroads.
fz :i fortv-cicht hour resumption of
harbor activities pending conferences
with the obicct of attempting a set
tlement of the harbor strike,
s Just os word was received of the
expected action of. President Wilson,
bv means of a trims-Atlantic cable
message to attempt a settlement sl
ihc strike which has tied up all harbor
Irattic, olliccrs or the Marine Work
ers1 Affiliation went into conference
declarine that no solution would be
accepted other than ."unconditional
surrender' of the boat owners, whose
refusal to arbitrate their employes'
demands for higher wages and an
eight Tiour dav precipitated the walk
out. ' ;' '.
William Malier, vice president of
the Master Mariners' and Pilots' as
sociation, stated he had been inform
ed the armv transport service'intend
ed to prefer charges against two tue
bont officers in armv service. He de
clared there would be not settlement
of the dispute if these men were pen
alized. ' . '

; A $50,000 WASTE.
THK proposal of the state highway commission to make
no permanent improvement on the Siskiyou highway
this veav. but to sinuid $50,000 of last year's funds iu
graveling the pi-esi rt irnr'nclani base, should be vigorously
combatted by the Jaekson county legislative delegation.
Like the patchwork inaiiitainenee work done by county
supervisors, the iinprovoment is only temporary iu char
acter and the money will be largely wasted. .
. Two years ago,' construction of the 8-foot concrete
pavement, which cost the same amount per mile as the
macadam, was stopped, and the money expended in
macadamizing. Scarcely any maintaineuce work was done
in 1918 and the highway was left in poor condition all
season.
Some $60,000 or over has already been spent in- ma
cadamizing, which is admittedly only a make-shift im
provement. Much of this work was unsatisfactory, and
it is difficult to pick out spme of the sections macadam
ized, as the rock has been swallowed up by the clay. , In
other sections, the rock proved unsuitable and air-slacked.
On other stretches, the rock was ground too fine, and has
been absorbed.
Had this money been spent in paving, we would have!
some seven or eight miles more b-ioot concrete road or
half this length of 16-foot permanent highway. As it is,
we only have a summer road which we had. before the
money was spent.
It is- now proposed to squander $50,000 more in simi
lar "improvement" when it might mean seven miles more
of nariv.w pavement or half the length of 16-t-ioS pave
incur. And wh n the money has been spent, the high
way coimnissioii v i1. probably gravely inform us that the
roaa is good eiwngn tor rue amount or travel ana re
fuse permanent improvement or indefinitely delav it.
Of course, if the Siskiyou highway was nearer Port
land,-or.it it was situated in the reactionary Willamette
valley, whili has always fought and opposed good roads,
there would be no inure thought of macadamizing it than
there i&of macadamizing the Columbia highway. But being
the iar-oit gateway of the state and having been con
structed at an expense of $250,000 for grading bv Jackson
county," without state aid, makeshift improvement is the
order or tlio day. .
A few thousand in repairs will make the road as'scr
viceable and traversable as it will be after the new $50,000
surface of gravel it will only be a summer road until
permanently paved and until then countless thousands
can be squandered on it in macadamizing and we will still
lacK a nignway. ,

"I have lived In Portland for thir
ty' years and there are just lots ot
people here who know that Tcinluc
has made a new man ot me," said J.
H. Palmer, the well known tninn(er
and baggage mau, residing at 2iit!
Knott street, Portland, Ore., recently.
. "1 have heon a sufferer Trom rheu
matism twenty-five years," continued
Mr. Pulinor. "mid reached tho point
whore I never expected to get well,
or even any better. I spent thousunds
of dollars trying to get relief, but
gradually got worse. Every muscle
in uiy body seemed to be drawn up,
every joint stiff, and I could not
move without Buttering agony. When
I walked Instead of lifting my foot, I
would just have to drag them along
and If my life had depended on It I
could not have raised my hands high
enough to touch the back of my head.
I was laid up for more than two
years at one time. After sitting down
for a while I couldn't get up without
holding onto something and after I
did got on my feet It would take mo
several minutes to straighten mysolf
up. During the past year or two my
condition became very much worse.
.My whole system seemed to be run
down. .My kidneys bothered me near
ly all the time, my back hurt me.
and at times I would almost scream
from pain.
"I auto suffered from Indigestion.
My stomach would bloat up after eat
ing and my food would sour and add
more to my misery. I would lay
awake more than half tho night rub
bing my arms and legs trying to get
easy so I could get a little rest.."!
would get awfully blue and despon
dent over my condition, and yet,
could Bee no way out of my suffering.
"Tho testimonials of people right
here In Portland, some of whom
know personally, caused me to try
Tanluc. Well, I am now seventy
years eld and I just want to say that
I have hever seen anything like It.
Before I .finished my flrat .bottle
was eating twice as much as before
arid felt' no bad effects from It.
am now on my fourth bottle, and
the rheumatism has just about-all
left mo. Why, my legs are, just as
limber as If 1 had never had a touch
of rheumatism. I don't suffer any
more from constipation and headache
and have gained back all my energy
and strongth and several pounds In
weight, besldos. Numbers of my
friends, who know what Tanlac has
done for mo, are now taking It with
fine results. Yes sir, Taniac has
done everything for me I could vlh,
far more than 1 expected It could do,
and I would be willing to go before
a notary and make an affidavit as to
the truth of this statement."
