ly the same terms that would have
been possible had the Brown road bill
been adopted by the legislature. The
remainder of the cost of the road will
be borne through a county bond issue.
Under the law such a bond issue can
be put up to the people at a special
election providing a sufficient petition
calling for that action is presented the
county court. The bonds will be paid
for by taxation upon all the property
Of the county including towns, such
as Pendleton, that are exempt from
ordinary road taxes.
The Cello canal will be open May
and water transportation will be In
vogue in the near future. Owing to
the magnitude OF the work il will be
impossible TO get the Pendleton-C Cold
Springs road built in time to handle
the coming crop However. by prompt
work il is believed the move can be
carried through so as TO have the
road finished before the harvest Of
1915. II is contended the road will
reduce the freight rate on wheat from
two to four cents a bushel. which
benefits would soon compensate for
the cost of the road.

WASHINGTON. March 1.-THE
stoppage Of American imports from
Germany as a result OF the British
order-in-council. establishing a
blockade OF Germany, will mean
loss OF 100000 per day in customs
receipts. This was the estimate OF
Senator Hoke Smith OF Georgia and
Senator Walsh OF Montana after a
conference with President Wilson
and Secretary OF Commerce Redfield.
The stoppage OF exports also will
mean a reduction in the worlds con-
sumption OF American cotton by 30.-
GOO bales a week. Wilson is devot-
ing most of his attention to the
blockade and the international ques-
tlons growing from IL. The attempt
OF Britain to justify its action and
the request that the United States
consider the blockade as parallel to
the action of the north during the
civil war will be ignored by the ad'
ministration.
The United States will flatly tell
England and her allies that this
country does not and cannot recog-
nize the right OF any belligerent to
esta blish a blockade on the high seas.
Senator Walsh, an expert in interna-
tional law. was outspoken in his dis
cussion Of the orders. He did not
believe the administration should
mince words in voicing its protest
against the policy, which he declared
was contrary to all law and prece
dent.

What the Plan is

The Cold Springs road plan as pro.
posed by r. o. Earnhart. president Of
the Farmers Union OF Umatilla coun-
ty is that hard surface road he built
with money raised by subscription and
by county bond issue. 1t is estimat-
ed the total cost will approximate
100000 and a subscription equal to
20 per cent is desired, so as not to
place all the burden upon the entire
county. Those who subscribe will be
allowed to pay in 10 annual payments,
interest not to exceed six per cent.
The plan outlined by Mr.. Earnhart
calls for a hard surface road from
Cold Springs landing to Pendleton and
for a spur road leading from some
point on the road eastward TO connect
with the Wild Horse highway This
idea in the spur road is to give ad-
vantages of the river freight rates to
Adams, Athena, Weston, Milton. Free
water and to the farming country ad-
jacent to those places
BY raising 90 per cent of the cost
Of the road from those who will be
most directly affected it is argued
the road can be built under practical.
