TOE JOURNAL'S ROAD ROLLERS, A Succ68siul Enterprise Growing iu Interest. The reports from The Journal's two 5000 mile cyclists continue to grow in Interest and are everywhere read by all classes of people. More persons are interested in qood roads than anyono Imagines. woodruff's first report. On the Road, April 30. Before the busy farmer Is astir or his busier wife, and whilo the "oranqe yellow" of cloud and tho "navy blue" of sky" (they seem to know what colors to wear) kiss above the serrate, somber hue of the Cascades and hide behind the austere and gloomy looking Mt. Hood, I will attempt to give my re cord of yesterday afternoon. The first half mile of road on leaving Balem was good enough, but If wo were to spend as much money In the remaining roads in Polk and Marlon counties, we could travel faster with horse or wheel in January. The next bit of road, about three miles in length, brought us to the farm of Mrs. Wallace. This road needs no comment from me, as every young man can testify who drives a horse and has a sweetheart about tho capital city. After leaving this beauti ful road we encountered some fresh dirt and new roadsjapparently, and our characteristic friend, J. H. Plum. He sayB: "I was born in Pennsyl vania, moved to Illinois, then to .Ne braska and finally to Oregon, and I think I know something about good roads, and if they'd let mo mako the laws I'd fix It so we'd soon have good roads. I'm a workin' twoand half assessments In on this time. '" One fel ler said I couldn't make hjui do!, but I says, by gol, you will, and I'm goin' to see that ho does it. "Where they only give 'em one assessment 'taint enough to make a man work helf 'cross bis own,pIaee. Tho thing to do Is to throw up a big grade, higher In the center bo'b tho water kin run otf, and then while you'yo got It fixed don't flton till you Kit gravel put on. Two years before I was put In as su pervisor I went round with a paper on' got a hundred day's work promised and they worked it an1 Iv'o got a hundred dayB more promised for this Bummer. If I was makln' a law, by gol, I'd mako It bo that after a feller'd been warned out twice and didn't como I'd Just send In lnu amount and lot tho Bberlll collect It and then with that money I could hire aome feller 'twould work, After while they wouldn't say they couldn't leayo their cro and their gardens and they'd work tho roads, too, You bet tuey would, by gol.

About 2:40 o'clock this morning the firo department was called out to ex tinguish what proved to be a destruo ive fire. Tho whole firo department urned out promptly and proceeded immedlataly to tho fire, which was discovered in Joseph Woodford's con fectionery storo on r3tato street. Chief Coes arrived boforo the hose cart and had proceeded to put tho firo out with Babcook extinguishers. He was suc ceeding nicely extinguishing the firo, when an excited looker-oq, who took In the Bltuatlon at a glance, kicked the door In, thus letting the air reach the inside of tho room which fanned the flames in their work of destruction. At this point tho two streams that had boon awaiting orders, were turnod upon the angry flames ' and after thirty minutes of hard work they were oxtldguished. At one time during tho fire flames were discovered over twelve feet from tho ground In the roof of tho 'building. As the department has no ladders, it was feared tho firo would Ret away from them, but securing a door from an adjoining building and with the as sistance of an associate, chief Coss suc ceeded in outting a hole in the side of the building largo enough to admit the hose, when tho flames were soon sub dued. A Bmall expenditure on the part of the city for ladders for for our eflloient Are department will save tax payers hundreds of dollars In some con flagration. THE LOSS. Mr. Woodford's loss will amount to about $800. Insurance SOO'A small quantity of groceries In J. J.' Miller's grocery store wers somewhat damaged by water. Tbo fire boys worked hero ically and deserve a great deal of credit for confining the fire in such' a small territory.
