With this family in active operation the Mail Tribune should be able to have its sub scribers waiting at tho press room for the latest news from the seat of war. Here is the story: "War clouds that have been hover ing over tho R. W.

Held In Eugene. ALL MUST BE MAINTAINED IS CONTENTION ADVANCED Dirt Basis of Vast Majority of High ways and There is Way to Se cure Good Results. The Eugene Eegister, of Saturday, hail the following: Good roads do not require concrete or asphalt. But they must havo drain ago drainage on top, drainage at the side and drainage below; they must be graded just as an engineer builds up railroad grade deep side ditches and a high, smooth crown. They may bo cov ered with gravel or crushed rock the latter is bettor, but not essential. Too much of either is wasteful. As for per manent roads, these do not exist, and what's more, they are a snaro and a lelusion. Xinoty per cent of all roads in Oregon must, for ycurs to come, be arth roads. Lcnrn to build these as foundations, and let the so-called "per manent ronds" bo placed on top .aft erward when needed. Such was tho doctrine preached to GO Lane county road supervisors who sut in the county court room all day yester- lny at the most remarkable good roads meeting, perhaps, ever held in Eugene. There was no oratory. Tho munifost cu thiisiusm was a strained attention; an eager interest, and an occasional, but sincere outbursts of applause. Jt was not a "high brow" meeting; ineu were there in working clothes. Their faces wore rough; but their eyes were Keen. It was not a meeting of wild enthusiasm, with each carried away by a vision of beautiful futures or of mud holes disappearing whilo you sleep nt the approach of bond issues. It was a joining of fact and theory. Men who havo built roads for 40 years were frankly told they do not know the liii-t word in road construction. And every man present aequicsed. They were told that other men, theorists if you please, knew facts ubout road building that noiio of them know. They wore told to read books. Principles Are Universal. "Gentlemen," said llolmus Thomp son, county judge, addressing lug road supervisors for tho last timo in thnt capacity, "tho basic principles of road building are tho same in Florida as they lire in Oregon. It is a law of naturo that water runs down hill, and the law of capillary attraction is another. You might just as well know thorn, for you can't build roads unless you do. 'You havo a tondency to bolittlo book knowledge, especially on practical subjects, but the best men in tho world get the experience of others; they get the basic principles, nud they apply to these their own experience. " Such was the attitude of this unusual road meeting. And druinngo wus tho theme. A puddle of water iu tho side of the road looked as big to tho aver ago of those supervisors on his way homo last evening as does a row of sa loons to a temperaiico worker in a dry town. Before tho meeting had closed, the ideal rend changed from a concrete, bitulithic covered model of engineering to a simple earthen grade, rounded up from a two-foot ditch at the sides. rowncd with eight niches of rock or gravel, underlaid with tile, nnd sur faced with a waterproof overcoat, a rain cent, if you please. Chenper to Eomovo Water. ''Dirt work is cheap; hauling gravel or crushing ruck costs moiiev, ' saul Judge Thompson. "If you can do a dollar's worth of earthwork and sava four dollars' worth of rock work it's worth while. It's cheaper to carry the water away, than to place expensive construction, and it's absolute wusto to put ruck on where (he grade has not been built, Wherever there is a pud- lle at the side of the road, you wil find a chuck hole in the center. I don't want any supervisor to tell me he laid rock 24 inches deep. If ho does, It) inches have been wasted," The talk of II. V. SUellon, professor of civil engineering nt Curvnllis, scut by the 0, A. C. extension department, was masterful. All lie did was to tell how to build up, drain and surface K road. It took him an hour and a half to do it, but it seemed a five-minute talk. " For years and years," he said, "Hi per cent ef Oregon's roads will bo earth ronds. This talk of permanent reads is not only usebvs, but it is harmful, Cnliloiuia bids fair to lose all its hard surface ronds because It lias thought that the construction of these is all thut is necessary. These reads cost more for maintenance than we uro led to be lieve. Puts Beads on Grade. ''Dirt roads, built as ncer permanent ly as possible, graded, drained, crowned and surfaced, are to form the founda tion for future read building In Ore gnu. And get your roods reduced to tho proper grade; the quicker you do so the more economical. "Drain the bottom with tile, make the top so it will shed water, and carry away the water at the side then you will have as permanent a road as you can wish. The whole secret lies in keeping the wter away." He advocated tho use of oil; a mad erate crown that will prevent,' not in vite "tracking," the prompt use of the road drag, and, moreover, the continual watching and repair. Drainage was also the there of Dr. H. B. Leonard, of the university. "One puddle of water will do more harm than a dozen wagons," he said. "Drainage is less expensive than costly foundations. The welfare of your coun try, gentlemen, depends upon your road construction. . Realize your import ance." Judge D. B. Eeasoner, of Washing ton county, told of tho road construc tion in his county where no rock is available. He declared emphatically that road construction in that county depends wholly upon keeping the water away. He told how the truck and dairy business, with a daily Btream of teams to tho city, has developed with the roads. 10 CENT "CACCARETS" No Sick Headache, Bilious Stomach, Coated Tongue or Constipated Bowels by Morning.

NO LATE HOUES FOB THOSE IN MANY LINES OF WOEK Order Eequiring Dismissal at 8.30 Held Not to Include Occupations Eequiring Such Wori. The first ruling of the Industrial Wel fare commission to apply to the entire state will go into effect next Saturday. This ruling provides for a minimum wage of $8.25 a week for experienced adult women workers in any industry, and establishes 54 hours as a maximum week's work. A minimum wage of $ti a week is established for inexperienced women workers, and the maximum length of apprenticeship is set at one year. Employment of women after 8:30 p. m. in mercantile or manufacturing es tablishments is prohibited. This hour of dismissal, however, does not apply to telephone and telegraph companies, con fectionery establishments, restaurants, or hotels. Neither, it is stilted by the commission, is it intended to include any occupation tho very nature of which requires night work; such for in stance, as women employes of a morn ing newspaper. Day Bate Pro-rated. The minimum wages fixed by this ruling are wage rates. Consequently, experienced employes working for less than a full week are to receive a pro rated wage, i. e. at least $1.37 a day and proportionately for parts of a day. In occupations where payment is mado by piece rate, the piece rate must be so regulated that "the average ordinary worker" may earn ac lenst $8,25 in a 54-hour week. In some occupations sufficient exper ience may be had in a few days or a few weeks to warrant the wpekly wago of $8.25. In case employers in such oc cupations fail to establish voluntarily a reasonable term for experienced work ers, the commission will call conferen ces nnd fix appropriate terms of exper ience. The present ruling simply indi cates that in no occupation will more than a year's experience be required. In ease several months' experience is required, it would be in accord with tho purpose of tho law to have a grad ual step-up in the rate of wages from the beginners wages until the rate of $8.25 a week is reached. Full Text of Order Given.
