SOUND TO TIE SEA"
THE GOOD ROADS CRY
Men From Country at State Conven-
ton to Show 1t Is Not a
City Movement

SEATTLE. Dec. 22-L. Frank
/ Brown, attorney and one OF the lead
ing spirits in the state good roads
movement. returned Yesterday from
/ Aberdeen and talked enthusiastically
of the reception the subject is meet
ing in the Grays Harbor country
preliminary to the coming state con-
vention of good roads to be held there
] January 90 and 21
Their cry. adopted for this con-
vention," said Mr.. Brown last night
lis from the Sound to the sea, and
they have responded TO the invita-
ton literally in money and spirit.
1t is the sentiment out there,
he continued, that the counties of
King, Pierce Thurston, Mason and
Chehalis. through their commission
/ ers and leading citizens, should de-
velop the through trunk line idea for
the purpose of serving the greatest
good. in preference to doing out the
million and half appropriation with
no thought of continuity of system.
In regard to this convention, the
criticisms that have always been
hurled at the movement by its Op-
pOnents will be refuted. These criti-
cisms claim first, that the movement
is dealing with the road conditions of
Rome, France and England instead
of handling the matter from the
Washington standpoint; second. that
we are developing too many leaders
and not enough followers; third.
that we are making it movement
of men from the city instead Of men
from the country; fourth. that we
are coming the congress trick, where
each section of the state wants its
its finger in the pork barrel rather
than developing one great trunk sys-
TEN for statewide good.
I'VE will have men of capacity
and character from the country, rath-
err than city men. among the three
OF five hundred delegates VINO Will
attend. Two great points will be dis
posed Of First. shall our county and
state highways be given away TO pri
vate interests and. second, what
means shall be taken to bond the
counties and develop in each a more
detailed organization Of the work."
Harvey Scott, veteran editor of the
Portland Oregonian, viii attend the
convention; so will City Engineer r.
II. Thompson. who will use the stere
optician and show the technical DOS
sibilities of the "Seattle-to-the-Sea"
trunk road.
Samuel Hill will arrive from
Europe in time to preside at the con-
vention. the second night Of which
will witness q second steropticon
study by &. G. Lancaster. the govern
ment good roads expert, who will
show what roads are being built and
what bad roads in the state are cost
ing.
Every county Will send its COM
missioners and will. at answering the
roll call, tell what his county is do
ing for the project.

Grandma Sanderson is wonderful
woman. She is in as good health to-

In letter to the Peruna Drug Mfg.
Co., she gives the highest credit to Pc
runa for her excellent health and ex.

Surely the evidence presented By
such cases as these ought not only to
iispel prejudice against Peruna, but
inspire confidence in it.
Il will send you picture that was

Il am a true friend of the Peruna
Company. I have derived great ben.

asulted in la grippe. Owing to the
everity of the disease, and my ex-
RENE age, my case was considered to

$ it ever was in my life.
However, I still continue to take
'eruna, spoonful every night before

Peruna is an ideal tonic for old
people. 1t is compound of herbal
:emedies that has been known to the
medical profession for many years.
Peruna operates as a tonic by cleans.

SENATOR POISON RETURNS

HOQUIAM, Dec. 22.-Looking
hale and hearty, State Senator Alex
Poison returned yesterday from a
visit to Eastern cities.
Mr. Poison spent several days in
Washington, D. c., as a delegate
from Grays Harbor to the National
Rivers and Harbors Congress.
Mr.. Poison said yesterday: 81 have
no doubt but what the Grays Harbor
country will get liberal appropra-
ton from congress for the completion
of the north side jetty. Statesmen
of the nation are beginning to learn
more about the Importance of the
Grays Harbor country as the greatest
lumber center in the world.
II am inclined to believe that the
coming year will be prosperous one
all over the country

That Franchise

The electric railroad franchise,
that grabbed every road in Chehalis
county, to the iniquity of which the
Herald was first to call attention, is
not going to have the easy Shedding
its promoters evidently expected. At
the meeting Of the commissioners
last Monday, State Treasurer John
u. Lewis, as a member Of the state
road commission, served notice on
the board that the commission would
night such rank bestowal of pub
lie roads TO a private corporation in
the courts and that the attorney
general was already preparing to
carry the matter into court.
This had the effect Of Withholding
the approval Of the minutes of the
minutes at which the ordinance was
passed, action being deferred until
the regular meeting on January 3.
Commissioner Arland is quoted as
saying the franchise would be con-
siderably modified before its final pas
sage, and it is suggested that the
best way to modify it is to reject
the document in toto. 4 party who
Will frame up such a franchise as
the one under consideration, is
scarcely fit party to grant any con-
cessions that leaves any discretion
with them whatever.
In the meantime, private individ
uals are having the matter prepar-
ed to appeal to the superior court
from the action Of the commission
ers, 50 that the entire subject will be
legally aired in full before the grab
all franchise becomes operative.

DON'T FEED TOO NEAR HOME
Lover OF Birds Points Out in What
Manner This Kindly Practice
is Pernicious.

In the northern states many of the
their nests in or near buildings, and
they are fed and sometimes partially
tanned. This is commendable, OF
course, but robins, for example, are
included in the list of game birds In
some OF the southern states, and eff
forts made TO tame them here may
result In their destruction on their
southwark fight In the autumn. Ac-
customed to frequent the homes OF
their northern friends, If they evlnce
similar habits in the south they are
often killed for the pot, says a writer
In Forest and Stream.
In the course of time the southern
states will protect these birds, but un.
III this is done II would be well TO
remember the result of feeding birds
near our homes. OF course the mere
fact that they are not molested while
in the north causes many birds to
nest round about houses, but If they
must be fed this should not be done
near dwellings.
There are few women who view
with calmness the killing of harmless
birds by cats. On the other hand,
there are few owners of cats who
AXE any steps to prevent these depre.
dations. The tanning Of birds in
places where cats are permitted &c
roam at will means certain death TO a
'arge majority of such birds, and so
ar as We know there is only one pre-
ventive, and that is to remove the ca;
from It's field Of activity
The theory that cats keep the coun.
try home free from rats and mice Is
pretty-or was before Puss. pampered
and overfed, became more fond OF tie
heat of the kitchen range or the sun
than Of her traditional hunting fields
Now that the birds are encouraged TO
nest near b., almost within her reach
with minimum of effort she varies
her diet now and then with a Nesting
and is content
To prevent hounds from hunting
foxes We confne them until ready to
accompany them, but We encourage
songbirds to nest near dwellings and
at the same time permit one of theii
worst enemies to harry them daily.

Stockholm, Aug. lit is still I'M
