BUSINESS IN ROADBUHDING.

]. H. Albert, of Salem, struck the
keynote in the roadbuilding question
yesterday evening while discussing
the special road tax law and the con-
struction of county roads by sections
and pieces.
He said the only way to build roads
was for counties to provide funds
and build permanent roads at once,
to every settled portion of the coun-
ty, the payment to be made from
time to time and in the meantime the
people would be enjoying their good
roads and could produce more and
save more because of good transport
tation facilities.
He cited the methods of railroad
construction. Railroads did not build
short sections of road at a time They
bonded and built entire systems, that
they might get immediate returns by
hauling freight and passengers. pay
ing off their Indebtedness as time
passed and business was created
along their lines.
This, he declared to be the only
proper methods for counties to pur-
sue. In place of spending money in
small repairs and construction of
short pieces of road, counties should
provide funds, by bonds or certifi-
Gates on real property, and build en-
tire systems of good roads at once,
so the people might enjoy them
while developing the country.
As it is now, the counties are al
ways expending money in roads and
yet few of them enjoy permanent
good roads. Under his proposed plan
the Indebtedness would not be any
greater in the aggregate than it is
under the present system, taking the
yearly expenditures from year to year,
and in addition, under his plan the
people would enjoy excellent roads
while paying for them.
II railroads waited to raise money
to build entire systems. countries
would never be developed nor open
ed to settlement. But railroads act
upon a business principle, which
should be equally profitable to coun'
ties. If man working for a small
salary waited before building {
house, until he had saved sufficien
money to pay for it, he would grow
gray in the task and always live in
rented house, while IL he secured tn
money and built his house, he coul
pay for it with his small savings an
enjoy a new house while making hi
payments.
1t is simply a business principl
applied to a public question.

ton in this city. tell of the great
work of unfolding now in progress
everywhere in the borders of the
state
In the Willamette valley the old
towns are Frightening up. putting on
an air of progress and life, new in
dustries are springing up as the mar
kets of Portland afford more and
more scope; electric lines are knitting
the settlements together in one vast
village, from Portland southwark.
Dairying, diversified farming. hog
raising, fruit raising, condensed milk
factories, hay raising and a thousand
such industries are now employing
the people of the valley counties.
Forest Grove and Hillsboro boast,
and justly, too. that they are to be
on the line of the first gasoline motor
ever run on permanent division in
NiiS CAiNSu SNdNSS' ieNolu tilil is
truly history maker. The Harri-
man motor car now hurrying to the
west will be run between Portland
and Forest Grove, giving the people
along that west side railway line a
service to Portland equal to the street
car service in the very suburbs of ths
metropolis.
Last year thousands of tons OF
timothy hay, a practically new pro-
duct for many of the valley counties
was sent to the Philippines at great
profit Hundreds of cows are being
MIXED for creameries. and condensed
milk factories and the prolific hoT
fields are producing more and more
with cultivation, az the prices soal
toward the 80 cent mark. Alfalfa, q
crop supposed to be impossible ir
the valley, is now being abundantly
raised and the clover fields of that
section rival the clover districts Of
Switzerland.
This revival in tn" Willamette val
ley is even more wonderful than the
progress of Eastern Oregon where
the same advance steps are being
made. Farming methods are beinl
improved in this district. Wheat
land that formerly produced but 1;
and IA bushels now yields 20 to 90
all because of more intelligent meth.
DDS being applied. land that wa.
supposed to be unfit for diversified
crops five years ago. is now produc.
ing corn, alfalfa and gardens il
abundance.
The newer oregon is upon us. Be
fore the next census is taken. the
state will support perhaps, 100000
people. instead of less than 100000
as now. The best age is now at hand

ed" is the unpleasant news that
comes from the Philippines with in
creasing frequency. 1t is not pleas
ant message to reach American
homes. The East Oregonian would
be the last one to pull down the flag
where it has been once planted, and
yet, if a good bargain can be made
by which the United States can sell
the Philippines to Japan, it would be
a blessing to the country. A few
capitalists will reap all the profits
from the islands, while the American
soldier will be compelled to yield up
his life in defense of them. Japan
will civilize the Fillpinos as quickly
as the United States, and will get
more good results from the islands,
because the japanese are more nearly
Ike the islanders and understand
them better than the Americans ever
can hope to do.

VALUE OF IRRIGATION.

AS nearly as can be determined,
more than $2O0,OOO,OOO have been
spent In the United States for con-
structing irrigation canals and reser-
voirs for the distribution of water and
for preparing land to receive irriga-
ton water. over 10,000,0O0 acres
are today being watered and some
thing like 100000 acres more can
be watered by bitches already con-
structed. The cost of this irrigation
may seem large. but returns justify
the expenditure. In Is states and
territories the very existence of life
depends upon the ability to use river
and flood water for growing crops
And the farmers are not the only ones
| benefited Cities like Denver, Colo
RADIO Springs, Salt Lake, Los Angeles
were created by and dependent upon
irrigation. And there are still millions
of acres to be watered and number
less cities to be developed by the ap-
pliance of water to the soil of the
west

YOUTH CONFESSES TO
MURDER OF COMPANION
EXPLAINS HOW TRIO PLo fTED
AGAINST FRIEND
Percy Pembroke of Oakland Tells How
He and others Decided to Hold Up
T. w. Cook, Lying In Wait and
Armed With Lead Pipe

OAKLAND, Aug. 3.-Percy Penn
broke, one of the trio of boys who are
under arrest charged with the murder
of T. w. Cook. has made a full confess
sion. In his cell today the 16-year-old
boy broke down and told Sheriff Bar
net the full story of the crime.
Three boys, all under II years of age,
deliberately planned to hold up their
friend and acquaintance, Thomas w.
Cook. They lay in wait for him armed
with bludgeons of lead pipe. When
Cook appeared, Pembroke declares,
Stephen Blaker stopped him and dealt
him stunning blow with the pipe.
Cook fell and Pembroke ran from the
scene of the crime, leaving his COM
panions to complete the robbery. Penn
broke exonerates Crowhurst, another
Of the suspects.
Last night Jailer Perry White tele-
phoned to Sheriff Barnet that he
thought Pembroke was ready to con-
fess. White and Constable Tom Car
roll of Fruitvale had been subjecting
animation for some time previous. But
it was not until almost five hours later
that Pembroke confessed. He first
wanted to know how he might turn
states evidence, but Sheriff Barnet told
him that any confession he had to make
must be without any promise of reward
or favor.
Today Baker and Schneider were
confronted with Pembroke in the pres
ence of District Attorney Allen and
Sheriff Barnet and Pembroke's confes-
sion was then read to them. Sheriff
Barnet asked Schneider If there were
any statements in it not true, and the
| boy answered mo" When the same
question was put to Blaker he said: 81
| can't answer"
Sheriff Barnet states that probably
no formal charge will be placed against
any of the four suspects until after thC
inquest which will be held on Satur.
day.

ATTEMPT TO RAID
LAKE GAMBLERS
Continued From Page Que.


the lake cut off by the bridge and no
possible chance Of safe landing on
shore, the case of the gamblers for the
time looked desperate. The Eagle cir
cled around and around in the harbor,
footing it's whistle in frantic fashion
for the bridge tender to turn the bridge
and allow it to steam back into the
lake. The police stood on the shore and
laughed, feeling confident that 1t was
only a question of time before the pas
sengers Of the Eagle would be in their
power. A small, insignificant mud scow
happened along at this critical mo-
ment, however, and blew its whistle
as a signal for the bridge to open. The
bridge tender was compelled to swing
the bridge, and the Eagle, planting its
bow squarely in the stern of the mud
scow, crowded in closely as 1t passed
through the bridge and then made a
run for the open lake and freedom.
AS soon as the police discovered the
approach of the mud scow and realized
that the bridge must open, they made
a rush for the fire tug Yosemite and by
the time the Eagle was entering the
waters of the lake the tug was tear
ing after it, loaded down with police
men.
The Eagle, however, steadily drew
away from the tug and after a run OF
ten minutes the police gave up the
chase. The Eagle landed at Indiana
Harbor, its passengers returning to
Chicago by train.
Before the arrival of the Eagle at
South Chicago small launch named
the Panther came in, bearing number
of gamblers from the city of Traverse
and several fishermen. All the passen-
gers of the Panther were lined up on
the pier and compelled to stand In
heavy rain while the police weeded out
the fishermen from the "excursionists. +"
Fourteen men who could not prove thai
they had been fishing were loaded into
the patrol wagon and carried to the
police station.
The gamblers who returned to Chi
cago this evening declared that, even
though the police had arrested all the
tassengers of the Eagle, they would
have found It impossible to prove a
case against them. as the wireless APP
paratus refused to work throughout the
day, ana not a message was received
and not a bet was made

NO MOSQUITO, NO FEVER
Government Health Department Tells
How to Prevent Disease

BY Associated Press.
, WASHINGTON, Aug. 3,-The public
health and marine hospital service has
issued circular on the prevention of
yellow fever. The directions given look
to the suppression of the mosquito as
the only means of preventing its
spread.
"No mosquito, no yellow fever is
the motto in big black letters at the
top of the circular.
The document continues as follows:
1.-THE Infection of yellow fever is car
ried by mosquitoes and by no other
means.
persons take the disease by being
bitten by mosquitoes that have pre-
viouslX bitten a yellow patient. The
mosquitoes, to become infected must
bite yellow fever patient during the
first three days of the attack. The
first three days, therefore, are the most
important in preventing the spread of
infection.
ut Is difficult TO decide during the
first three days whether a patient has
yellow fever, hence the necessity in
threatened communities of placing a
mosquito bar Immediately around every
patient who has fever Of any kind and
for three days at least"

TESTIMONY BEGINS IN
TAGGART DIVORCE SUIT
PLAINTIFFS BROTHER GIVES
EVIDENCE
Speaks Of Defendant's Alleged cspsc-
ity for Beer and Describes Contest
for Championship Of Garrison, In
Which Officers Backed Contestants

WOOSTER, Ohio, Aug. 3,-With a re-
quest from Captain Taggart's attorney
that the court order Mrs. Taggart to
permit her husband to see their two
sons, the Taggart divorce hearing was
resumed today. Judge Easton ruled
that both parties had equal rights in
the children though they were tenn
porarily under the mothers care.
1he first witness, Howard Taggart,
brother of the plaintiffs said he lived
with the Taggarts at Fort Thomas,
KY, from 1893 to 1898. He described a
visit of Lieutenant Ritchers to the
Taggart house. where he had an inter-
view with Mrs. Taggart in the parlor
at 1880 a. M, while Captain Taggart
was away. The witness discovered
latter hurried away and did not call
again.
A week later Mrs. Taggart handed
the witness an anonymous letter ask
ing him If he knew the writing. The
letter advised the captain to watch his
wife, declaring that Ritchers was talk
ing her to a resort in Newport. The wit
ness said he never mentioned Ritchers'
early morning call or the letter to his
brother.
Mrs. Taggart's alleged capacity for
beer was given as five glasses at one
sitting, the witness describing a drink
ing bout between Mrs. Taggart and the
wife of another officer at Fort Thomas.
The contest was for the championship
of the garrison, the witness said, an !
the contestants were backed by officers
Mrs. Taggart told him afterwards, the
witness said, that her opponent won
the match, drinking nine goblets to
Mrs. Taggart's five. Howard Taggart
testified that his sister-in-law drank
habitually with the officers and prided
herself on taking her whisky straight,
laughing at the men for using water
with it. The captain, the witness said, |
objected to his wife giving their sons
beer.

CHICAGO. Aug. 3,--Willlam J. Bry-
an, jr., is lying at the Presbyterian
hospital, where he underwent a sur
gical operation yesterday for the re-
moval of an abscess on his right knee,
brought about by inflammation that
began with corn on his foot. Young
Bryan was brought to the hospital yes
terday from Winona Lake, Ind, on a
fast train. He is a student at mill
itary academy.
The hospital physicians announced
that his condition was not dangerous,
but that the prompt action in bringing
him to Chicago for treatment pre-
vented a serious turn.
The inflammation that resulted in the
forming of the abseess was first mo-
ticeable two weeks ago. A corn on his
right foot first became inhamed after
it had been accidentally cut The cut
became infected, and it was for this
reason that blood poisoning was feared.
The young man, who is 16 years old,
kept the facts of his condition from
parents and other relatives. Mr. Bryan
is now touring Ohio. After the re-
assuring report by the hospital physi-
clans, who say that the boy will be
able to return to his studies in few
days. word was sent last night to his
father and his uncle, Charles w. Bry-
an at Lincoln, Neb.
