ROW AMONG ROAD BUILDERS
Serious DissensIon in National Con-
vention over Time for Elect
ing Omcers.

PORTLAND, Ore, June 2S1t is said
serious dissension exists in the ranks of
the National Good Roads association over
the question whether an election of officers
shall take place at this meeting. When
the association adjourned after its meeting
at St. Louis last year it adjourned ITO
meet in Portland, Ore.," and did not ad-
journ "sine die" ..
According to the contention of President
Moore, who says there will ba no elec-
ton held this year, the meeting at Port
land is but an adjourned meeting of that
held in St. Louis More than this he says
that this was expressly agreed to by
Colonel Richardson. the secretary of the
association. and President II. W. Goode.
president of the Lewis and Clark corpora
ton Moreover, President Moore says. that
it was then understood that the executive
committee should call meeting TO be held
during November next at some point in
the Mississippi valley, where the election
of officers has always hitherto been held,
for the purpose of holding this election.
Mr. Moore adds that it is not the custom
of the association to elect annually, there
being but two elections during the last
| five years.
| Mr. Moores opponents are headed by
| Secretary Richardson and Good Roads Ex-
| pert James w. Abbott.
The time OF the convention today was
taken up with addresses.

Mr.. Fitch The morning hours were con-
sumed in securing a jury and the evidence
is being taken this afternoon.
Before proceeding to the impaneling of
the jury Mr.. English filed a Plea in abate-
ment, basing 1t on the ground that Breck-
ner is not amenable to punishment since
the passage Of the juvenile court law. He
was under 16 at the time of the killing, but
was not tried under the old reformatory law
before he became 16, In April, and the
| Juvenile court law does not except murder
and manslaughter from the list of crimes
| for which the Juvenile court shall mete out
| punishment to offenders under l6 The
county attorney entered a demurrer to the
plea in abatement and the court sustained
| the demurrer. This action makes up the
record on which Mr.. English intends TO ap
peal, in the event OF conviction, in order tc
have the legal questions settled by tho
