relation to publ &c highways do not
apply to the streets and alleys of
an Incorporated town or city and
the county commissioners have no
power or authority over city streets
for any purpose without the consent
of the city authorities"
Summing up. | would advise you
that the legislature has control
over roads and highways; this con-
troll it may delegate and in this
case has delegated the same to the
county courts and to the cities.
To construe both delegations of
control over roads and streets so as
to render same effective, the dele
cation of power to the county
court must be confined to roads
within the county but without the
confines Of any incorporated city
and the delegation to the city must
be held to give exclusive control
over streets within its limits.
Therefore. when a city is incorpor-
ated all county roads within it's
limits. ipso facto. becomes streets
and subject to control of cities.
Yours very truly.

Nashville, Or. Oct. 20, 1918,
Lincoln County Leader.
Toledo. Oregon.
Dear Sirs:-
In recent Issue Of your paper /
notice statement. under the Nash
vile items to the effect that the
Nashville Citizens Club had dropped
the creamery proposition and had
now taken up fruit proposition
but that nothing would come of it
as they deal entirely in hot air.
The statement is not only erron-
eous but decidedly malicious in it's
nature and evidently cumes from
one who is not in sympathy with
and is not working to the best in
terests of the community.
Such reports can do you no good
and are injurious to US.
For these reasons ! request that
you publish this letter giving the
facts in the case.
The Nashville Citizens Club is an
organization formed to assist in the
development of the community and
stands ready to assist any project
that is worthy.
In regard to the fruit business
we took up the matter last Spring
to find market for those who de-
sire to raise fruit.
The Benton County Growers AS
sociation seemed to be the best in
strument for this purpose and we
have co-operated with them.
Upon request of growers here
we have taken up the matter again
and at present are making a can

THE object of incorporating a
town or city is to invest the inhab-

Ben Jones
for Congress
The Oregonian of last Monday
morning had the following regard
ing the candidacy of our former
townsman B. F. Jones:
With refurm of The Federal land
laws as one of the leading planks
in his platform. B. F. Jones, Regis
ter of tie United States Land
Oflice at Roseburg, will contest with
Representative hawley and others
for the Republican nomination for
Representative in Congress from
the First Oregon District before
the next primaries. Mr.. Jones
four-year term as Register will ex-
plre December 18th next. and after
that time he will make an active
campaign for the nomination.
THE present homestead law is
prohibitive." said MIR. Jones at the
Imperial Hotel yesterday. Sin that
it requires sn actual cultivation of
one-eighth of the area of the home
stead in three years. or 20 acres
for 160-acre claim. All the
homestead land in Western Oregon
either is timber or brush land. to
which the settler must haul or pack
his supplies at great labor. A
settler. work he ever so hard, can
not clear this amount of stump or
brush land in less than 10 years.
He cannot clear more than an acre
year."
1t is Mr.. Jones ambition to in
troduce and work for the passage
in Congress of q bill providing for
such reforms in the statutes as will
make it possible for a bona tide
homesteader to get a farm in Ore
gon, and comply with all the re-
qurements as we'll.
Mr.. Jones was a member of the
State Legislature Of 1903, 1907
and 1909 as Representative from
Lincoln and Polk counties. He was
a member of the House committee
on railroads in 1907. and during
that session introduced bill,
known as the demurraae bill. the

Union Pacific Announces Com,
petition for Mail.
Rearranges Schedule to Beat
Out Rock Island.
DRAWN OUT COAST SPEED War
Rock Island, Santa Fe and
Union Pacific in It.
Other Items of Interest In the
Traffic World.

Through Encouragement OF its
time schedule the Union Pacific rail-
road has completed plans to handle
mail for California points which u
now being transported over the Rock
Island. Ell Paso and Southwestern and
Southern Pacific lines. The change
will be effective December Fl. The
Union Pacific operates its fast mail
train daily from Omaha in two sec
lions and arrangements have been
made to advance the starting time Of
the second section from a. m. to 1: so
p. m. This will furnish the road a
connection with the Burlington fast
mail train which arrives in Omaha
1t about the same hour and places it
in position to reach San Francisco
with the mail from New York and
other eastern points eighteen and one
half hours earlier than the. Rock Is
land and its connecting lines.
Another reason for making the
change was the recent shift in mail
connections made by the Santa Fe at
Kansas City. whereby its California
Limited train waits at that point for
the mail from New York. arriving at
road. This plan enables the Santa Fe
to haul the eastern mail into San
Francisco twelve hours earlier than
does the Union Pacific. The change
Of the Union Pacific's fast mail from
Omaha will result in the latter line
reaching San Francisco with New
York mail eight hours ahead of the
Santa Fee. E
In order to meet competition by the
Santa Fee in the matter Of hauling
southern California mail, the Rock
Island has arranged a new schedule,
effective last Sunday. whereby its fast
mail train will leave Chicago at s p.
m. instead of 8 p. m. and reach Kan
sas City in time to pick up the New
York mail at that point and transport
it to Los Angeles. This arrangement
makes the running time OF both lines
the same as far as the transportation
of the eastern mail to Los Angeles IL
concerned.
Burlington Makes Cut.
Omaha, Neb., Dec. Elm an effort
to prevent the Pennsylvania, Missouri
Pacific and Santa Fee railroads from
securing the contract for carrying the
transcontinental mails from New York
to San Francisco, the Burlington rail-
road announced a cut of 55 minutes
in the running time Of its fast mail
from Chicago to Omaha. The train
will leave Chicago at O'Clock in the
morning and arrive in Omaha at 1:45
that afternoon, making fQrty-fiye
miles an hour for the entire distance.
Together with the big reduction in
time announced yesterday by the
Union Pacific, by this cut the North
ern lines will take mail into San Fran
cisco nine hours quicker than the
Southern lines.
