future Of GIRLS HOME
IN COMMITTEES HANDS
Three Men Selected to Decide
What Shall Be Done
About Matter

Whether or not the wayward girls
home receives any recognition from
the present session Of the legislature is
left solely in the hands of the chair
man Senator Day and Representative
Cobb, respectively, and Representative
Smith, of Multnomah, Of the joint ways
and means committee after lengthy con
sideration of the subject at last nights
meeting Of the committee following a
hearing granted the state board of con-
troll on the subject during the after
noon. The committee also decided that
before any appropriation was recon-
mended for the maintenance of the
Oregon National guard for the ensuing
biennium that they must know just
how and for what purpose the appro-
priation for the past two years had
been expended and action upon the
militia budget was deferred until Ad-
jutant General White renders com
plete accounting of the funds.
The proportion of making further
provision for the wayward girls home,
which the committee had decided to
cut off without an appropriation last
Friday evening, was renewed at last
nights meeting and the matter was
gone over thoroughly and in detail.
The opposition to providing support for
the infant institution maintained its
former position that the home was be.
ginning to assume an altogether too
expensive and expensive proportion to
be comfortable for the taxpayers and
should not yield a point until it was
finally decided that the two chairmen
and DR.. Smith form committee of
three TO visit the institution and report
some sort of compromise and recon-
menlaton as a solution to the diff
ficulty. This committee is not at all
pleased with its mission, realizing that
it is doomed to run up against strong
force Of feminine argument and pro
testation.
Secretary Frank Meredith of the
state fair board wse ALSO up before tho
/ committee again last night explaining
the items Of $500 asked for in REIN.
bursement Of money expended out of
the boards revolving fund to make up
the deficiency in the appropriation for
completing the pavilion and 5000 eX-
/ pended out of the same fund for re-
pairs to the well and water system on
the grounds in the hope that the com
mittee would recommend that the fund
be reimbursed to this amount The
committee listened to his explanation
and took the matter under advisement
I The budget for the state reform school
and the tuberculosis institute were also
passed upon finally, the former receiv
ing reduction Of 1870 from the
amount asked and the latter reduc
ton Of $lS,3GG. The appropriations OF
these institutions as recommended are
as follows;

AND OTHER MATTERS

other gang of Italians-all on a road
few rods less than five miles long.
About once in five or six years it is
necessary to resurface the road. That
means TO tear up the road from the
bottom and put on new top of crush
ed stone at an expense about half the
original cost of the road The ex-
pense of building q state road is paid
in part by the state, (and every tax
payer In the state pays a part of it,
in part by the county in which the
road is built, (and every taxpayer in
the county gets a chance to contri-
bute) and in part by the town, and
), there Mr.. Taxpayer gets his third
chance. 1t seems to me it must be a
little difficult to tell what any one man
pays, by figuring the number Of dol
lars per capita.
1t may be that the improved road
makes the farm worth more when one
desires to sell. 1t is certainly an adj
vantage when ii comes to hauling off
ones produce but the assessor seems
to see the increase in value as soon
as anyone, and it does seem so much
of an advantage to a fellow who
wants to stay and pay taxes on the
added valuation.
Upon reading the foregoing,
thing you may be justified in thinking
| am knocking our roads. No, the
roads are all right, but no taxpayer
in the state will admit that they do
not cost something. | can remember
when two light horses could haul one
and one-half tons of produce to mar
ket--when the road was in good con-
dition-never more than that Now.
team of the same weight will haul
two tons over the same roads and
there is no occasion TO wait for the
roads to dry up after a rain. In those
days, the lightest breeze would stir
up a dust that would almost choke
fellow, now the dryest spell of wealth
er, combined with the highest wind,
will hardly find bit of dust to move.
For these things we are all very
thankful, but we are beginning to
realize that crushed stone is not the
ideal road building material we once
hoped it to be. Ex-Governor Glynn
says it is time to consider whether
there is not some material of which
roads may be built which will last
long enough so that reasonably rap
id photographer can get picture Of
the road before it is worn out, and
many farmers are thinking there was
much sense in the Governors view.

COUNTRY STILL DIVIDED
OVER |TALY'S ATTITUDE
Difference OF Opinion Extends to
Cabinet and Threatens Its
Solidarity.
FOREIGN MINISTER MAY QUIT,
One Party Favors Sending Troops
to Serbia's Aid and Other Believes
All Forces Are Urgently Needed
at Home.

ROME (via Paris). October IL
1taly's participation or nonparticipa-
ton In the Balkan campaign continues
to a9itate the country. which Ia divided
into two camps, one favoring the send
Ing OF troops to Serbia's aid and the
other believing that all the italian
forces are required at home.
1t Is asserted that the difference in
opinion extends to the abinet and
threatens its solidarity. A. rumor to-
day was that Baron Sonnino. the For
eiEn Minister. following the lead OF NJ.
Delcasse. the French Minister of For
eign Affairs, might resign.
Those opposed to italy sending
troops to the Balkans enumerate al
legged diplomatic mistakes which have
compromised the allies situation there.
This faction also argues that Serbia
did not attack Austria when Italy be-
gan war, and when. they declare. q
Serbian offensive would have been most
useful to Italy's front. preventing the
Austrians from mobilizing there 100000
men from the southern front.
Military considerations ut home also
are advanced as a reason for nonpar-
ticipation. Italy might be able to send
men, but no artillery to amount to
anything. In addition, opponents OF
participation calculate that in case OF
sudden invasion OF Italy by the Aus
trians the Italians, who had been de-
tached for fightinE in the Balkans,
could not return home within three
months.
The ideas OF those In favor OF send
Ing troops to fight with the British,
French and Serbs against the Teutonic
allies are we'll expressed in state
ment printed in the Secolo, which says:
This absence OF Italy from the Bal
kan5 at this decisive moment would be
prem editated political suicide, as the
allies must now repair with military
action the bad effect OF their unfore-
seen diplomatic defeat"
