CITY TO WORK
FOR new ROADS
Spokane Officials and Officials of the
County Will Cooperate to
Build Them.

SPOKANE, Wash July 26.-Short
stretches of bad roads in Spokane
between places where municipal paw
ing ends and county and state improv-
ed highways begin will be converted
into good roads by cooperation of city
and county officials and property
owners, acting under a new arterial
highway connection law passed by
the last legislature. Heretofore au-
tomobiles have had smooth sailing
until they left the pavements, then
stretch of a mile or two inside the
city's limits where rough waves were
encountered, then long miles of un-
ruffled sea Gall this being metaphor
lcaD on the splendid state and coun-
ty roads Under the new manage
ment the city and county and abut-
ting property owners each will pay
portion of the Improvement expenses.
To connect up with Sunset boulevard
at an estimated cost of $4,000, the
city and county each will pay be-
tween $4,000 and $4,000, the abutting
property owners to pay the balance
between $4,000 and $4,000.

the A. a. A. National Good Roads
Board, emanates from Tennessee,
where a concrete road is being pro-
jected between CHATTANOOGA and
Knoxville. The primary movement
Tor this highway was inaugurated by
the Chattanooga Times; it was then
taken up by the Chattanooga Cham
ber of Commerce and the Knoxville
Board of Commerce both woking in
conjunction. Then the cities and
counties along the rout became en-
Unused. and the work is proceeding as
rapidly as the conditions permit
A first class road between the two
Tennessee cities will form an import
ant link. From Chattanooga sever
al improved roads lead into Alabama
and Georgia. and others are being
projected into Mississippi and Louis
lana. From Knoxville to Bristol, Va.
there is already a good road. and a
link IS now being constructed from
Bristol to the Shenandoah Valley road
which is the present outlet to Wash
ington and the north. Another
movement is for main highway from
Chattanooga to Louisville. Ky C. f.
James OF Chattanooga states that this
road will be built in two years if
Kentucky does its part. Mr. James
at his own expense has built. from
Chattanooga to the top of Signal
Mountain, a permanent road which
forms part of the route and takes
care of the heaviest portion of the
construction. The routing in Tennes-
see will be about 135 miles shorter
than any other route between Louis
vile and historic Chattanooga.
Another indication that the "signs
of the times favor better and more
durable road construction, is found
in the report of the board of consult
ing road engineers recently appointed
| by Governor Sulzer of New Yorl
state to examine into the condition ot
existing contracts. On two state high
ways where the work has not yet
yetreached the surfacing stage, the
committee found -446 miles of roa6
where. to carry out the original con
tracts, would be to practically waste
the money. An upper course of frs
class material probably concrete, il
the only method by which the none.
| already put in can be saved.
State Highway Engineer A.
| Johnson. has recommended eitheI
concrete or brick for the state ait
main roads to be built under neN
highway law of Illinois.
According to many leading roa'
engineers. too much emphasis can
not be placed on the Importance @
a type of construction that will stan
the stress of the constantly increas
ing traffic. Motor trucks carryin
heavy loads are being put into us
everywhere. and the roads must b
built for durability under the com
bined light and heavy motor an
horsetraffic. For the main roads
| the country, it is claimed, ordinar
macadam has had it's day. 1t ha
| now become too expensive becaus
| of its short life. Economy as well
| utility demands higher type of cor
| struction.

Labor Question Settled.


MIR. Clark said he had consulted
with Mr.. Moore of San Francisco, one
of the directors of the exposition,
about the labor situation there and
Mr.. Moore told him that the labor in
teres's had agreed not to insist on the
employment of union men on build
ings being erected by states or foreign
countries. A contractor, upon secur-
ing a contract, will elect to work a
closed or open shop. If he chooses
an open shop, union contractor may
lake subcontract under him without
ofiense to the unions.
If the building is that of a foreign
country, Mr.. Clark said he was in
| formed that the union men have
agreed to work alongside the Japa-
nese Chinese or any other nationality
This applies only to the expenditure
of the various state and country ap-
propriations.

APPROPRIATION
FOR OREGON AT
FAIR TOO SMALL

SALEM, Ore, July 26.-Three MEM
bers of the Oregon Panama Pacific
exposition commission held their first
meeting here yesterday and discussed
plans for the states representation at
the exposition in 1915 They decided
to go to San Francisco August 4, to
confer with the exposition directors.
Not until their return will any defi-
mite policy be formulated, they an
nounced.
The members here were o. NJ
Clark of Portland, r. A. Rooth of Eu-
gene and w. l.. Thompson of Pendle-
Hawley of Mccoy and John F. Logan
of Portland
Appropriation TOO Small.
One of the first things that devel-
oped was the fear that the appropri-
alton of S175.000 will not be enough
Mr. Booth said, in his opinion, il
wouldn't more than provide for the
building and perhaps some of the
overhead expenses during the fair. He
thought there would not be anything
left for exhibits.
This brought the suggestion from
State Treasurer Kay that the variou.
counties might be induced to provid,
the exhibits at their own expense, bu
Mr.. Booth objected to this idea on the
ground that it would take too mucl
room and would probably result in =;
large duplication of exhibits.
Mr.. Clark said it would take $500
10 10 Go, ,s,l
lected in that manner. The Oregon
Development league will be called ol
to help in this matter.
Mr.. Kay told the members of tn
commission that the legislature il
making the appropriation had esti
mated that $4,000 would be enough
to spend on the building, thus leavin
/ 100000 for exhibits and other ex
/ penses.
State Architect Wants Job.
: 1t was decided that the building
should be completed by November
1914, in order to have ample time t
. take care of and arrange the exhibit
before the fair opens on February q
1915
Mr.. Kay said the state architect ha
l requested to be allowed to prepare tn
plans and specifications for the build
ing. He said that the state architect
work cost the state about two and
e half per cent while the commissio
: of other architects were five per cen
Mr.. Clark said he wouldn't conside
such a suggestion at ALL
THE matter of 1-2 per cent com
S mission doesn't amount to anything,
e he added What we want is to sc

: He said he wanted the commissio
j to ask the members of the state a:
k sociation of architects to submit con
t petitive plans and let the commissio
: choose the one it liked best.

e same view.

ROADS CONNECTING IMPORTANT J.
CITIES ARE GREAT NECESSITY

NEW YORK, July 26.-(Special)-
Roads between important centers of
population are now recognized as ne
cessities and are demanded as essen
tiaI to greater prosperity by states
which have awakened to real high
ways progress. Coupled with it is the
call for better type of construction
for these main roads. for not only
are good roads required, but they
must STAY good for a period of time
which will justify their building.

Since the frequent showers mos.

Third Regiment Band in giving open

nightfall the people fuss, fan, fume

until they give up in despair and
take refuge behind screen doors and

is made up of the old time little

burning sting and come from any

who do but little singing but whose

through clothing about as easily
as hot knife cuts through

pests from carrying out the Roosevelt
