About Barber Asphalt.
Editor Jeurnal: I havo trlod to
follow tho intorost taken by different
ones concerning tho dlfforent pave
ments to bo used on tho streets of
tho most beautiful city west of tho
Cascades, in which I am now a ban
ished citizen. I wish to glvo soma
of my experiences with Bnrbor as
phalt paving. About flftcon yenrs ngo
tho Barber Asphalt company put
down about threo mtlos of their fam
ous paving In tho city of Wlchltn,
Kan., nnd In their contract thoy woro
to ninko all ropalrs for tho porlod of
fivo years after tho completion and
nccoptanco of tho sanio by tho city
council of Wichita, which they did I
bellovo very properly, but now lot
us so ohow tho mnttor stands with
tho city after fifteen years.
Tho first flvo years was all sun
8hino as far as tho public was con
cerned, oxcopt tho rathor heavy bur
den of tnxos to pay off tho bonds thnt
It cost to put It down which I think
are not nil paid yot.
But how for tho stato of affairs
for tho Inst ten yoars since tho com
panys contract run out. Tho com
pnny kept ono man thoro to gunrd
tholr proporty and to mako tho re
pnlrsxas ordorod by tho city onglneer
or stroot commlsslonor. Tho first two
or threo yoars tho ropalrs woro light
but lncronsod rapidly nnd for tho last
flvo yoars It has cost a good many
hundred dollars each year for re
pairs, bosldes tho streets woro in n
doplornblo condition nnd for wooks
at a tlmo woro almost Impasslblo
They woro flno for tho blacksmith and
wagon maker, but how about tho
other follow?
I am informed by ono of tho coun
cil that tho ropalrs have cost tho city
nearly doublo tho first cost of tho
paving. Now thoy had several blocks
pnved wth vitrified brick put down
10 and 17 years ago and thoy have
boon to no oxponso at all to koep
thorn up, oxcopt where tho wntor or
gas companys would cut through
thorn and not leave them in propor
repairs and in that caso tho oxponso
was charged up to tho company that
was at fault.
I soo by my papers that I get from
there that the cty la preparing to go
over tho entiro paying again with
new and It won't be Bnrbor asphalt

thick with granite grouting filled in
with cement, tho top courso a grade
flnor than tho lower; (3) wood
blocks with all sap removed and sot
on end, bedded In snnd with rock bed
under tho stand.
Now Mr. Editor I do not known
what kind of pavement this city will
use, but ono thing you niny bet on
with a desree of safety nnd that is
If tho city does not hnvo a man right
on tho spot watching every square
yard put down the contractor will
slight his work to tho amount of ton
to twonty-ftvo cents on tho yard
whorever an oppotrunlty offers and
tho city is the looser to that amount
and It will bo soveral years before
you find It out.

Editor Jeurnal: I am glad to

Btato of Oregon if properly handled
by its public men nnd properly ex

States.
I think your plan to hold these
waterway conventions during the
winter is an cxcollont ono nnd ought
to bo well attended by tho coast peo
ple as well as by tho pcoplo of the
Inland towns and cities.
It looks now ns though Oregon Is
going to como out nil right as far as
federal appropriations nro conoorn
cd if thoro Is no cutting down. Ore
gon, as reported by tho committees,
will got about $4,00,000. Coos Bay
will get n now survey and now pro
ject nnd $100,000 for a dredgo to bo
used on tho Oregon harbors. Mr.
Jones wants tho bill to rend a dredger
for Oregon and Washington, but ns
Oregon comos first It wns not snfo to
fight hlnr In It. What I want them
to do Is to glvo Orogon nnd Wash
lugton onch a drodgor as thoy aro
under two dlffcront Jurisdictions it
would bo a bono of contention nnd
might bo difficult to nrrango for both
states satisfactorily as ono would
hnvo to wait for tho othor and then
thoro Is nlwnys danger In transport
ing a dredger of that character, It
having no propolllng power of Its
own, thoroforo would hnvo to be
towod by nn oxponslvo bont nnd
wouldj entail oxtra cost as woll as
tho danger of wrecking, should It
moot uufnvorablo woathor. I do not
think It wlso legislation to, hnvo ono
