Permanent Hard-Surfaced Road
Only Kind to Build Says Yeon

John B Yeon Portland multi-mll.
Iionaire who volunteered his services
to Multnomah county as county road
master and undertook and completed
the building Of so miles Of hard sur
faced road within the county and was
also interested in the building OF the
famous Columbia Highway, told the
people Of Umatilla county what he
thought Of good roads at the meeting
at the court house on Saturday night.
He made an interesting talk and dem
onstrated by concrete examples the
value of good roads TO any commu.
nifty and TO the state at large.
He strongly emphasized the fact
that a hard surfaced road puts de-
pot in front Of every mans door, while
a railroad does not and to accom-
plish anything in the way Of good re-
suits for the entire community the
main trunks must be hard surfaced
first and then the side roads will
take care Of themselves.
'Macadam road said Mr. Yeon "is
nothing but perpetuaI motion You
don't more than get one mile. Of it
finished than you have to take uD
YOUR outfit and move oack to the
starting point and begin repairing the
first quarter. The permanent hard
surfaced road is the only road that
will stand up under modern traffic .
He said that when ne undertook
the work Of constructing good roads
in Multnomah county they had sixty
miles OF macadam which was costing
them $1,000 a mile 10 maintain AMI
giving service three or four months
in the year They proceeded to hard
surface this macadam and they now
have a road which gives them service
35 days in the year and the interest
on the cost OF building this 60 miles OF
road was not as much as the annual
cost Of maintaining the macadam
road which gave only partial service.
He urged that the people OF Umatil
la county build hard surfaced roads,
but that IN the building, considering
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1916-03-20

the amount they would cost, the peO-
pie should see to it that they first Sc
cured the services of the best engi-
neer possible, that they paid special
attention 10 the construction to sec
to it that they get dollars worth
of road for every dollar expended,
and to make sure first that the route
selected was the proper place for the
road to be built, for after a hard
surface road is once built it cannot Be
changed and altered according to the
wishes or whims Of "a Few people or
to rectify mistakes made in the or
iginal laying out Of the road Hard
surface roads" he said, ARE perma-
nent and should be laid out with great
care and with view 70 their perma-
nency"
The building of the nard surface
roads he urged would bring countless
acres Of land into the market through
offering quicker and cheaper trans
portation to the market centers than
even the railroads can give.
He urged that it was a poor policy
to attempt to build roads to suit the
inclination Of every one. but insisted
that the main trunks should be given
attention first and tney would more
than pay for themselves. as they
served the greatest number Of people
the greatest number Of days in the
year,
In addition to the regular traffic
Of the locality through which the
roads run he called attention TO the
benefits to be derived by the commu-
nifty at large through the tourists
traffic. which he said in a year would
amount to a great sum Of money.
He spoke at some length on the
Columbia highway, telling of the man.
ner in which it was built and the re-
suits it was bringing to the commu-
mites through which it passes and also
TO the state at large.
Geo. NJ Hyland, who introduced
MIR Yeon. also spoke in favor of the
bond issue now pending.

SAN ANTONIO, March 90
Spread out like a fan, half dog
en- American detachments combed
the country southeast OF Casas
Grandes today, hunting for villa.
Pershing is making his greatest
effort in a south easteFly direction.
This was taken TO indicate villa
is near Numiquipa or Habrlcora
ranch. He Is very familiar with
that territory.
Army headquarters announced
that Pershing's principal column
had been broken up into small
commands. all operating from q
central base at Casas Grandes. It
is believed Pershing is finding his
expedition Is closer 20 villa than
supposed and Is trying TO enveI-
Op the bandit Immediately. A
portion of DOdd's men are belieV-
ed executing a rapid flank
movement.
1t was reported villa left a de-
tachment at the Hernandez ranch
to hold off the Americans until
he hides in the Sierra ATadres.
Fighting with the rear guard Is
not unlikely soon. The first hope
Of capture lies in overhauling
Villa and making him fight.
The twenty fourth and twenty
fifth infantry regiments compOs-
ed Of negroes, left Columbus
yesterday, following Pershlng's
trail. Other troops are stiIl ar
riving there.

( MEETING VOTED IN FAVOR OF
SUBMITTING SPECIAL TAX TO VOTE

The final result Of the rather temp
estuous good roads meeting at the
court house Saturday afternoon was
a decision to place upon the ballot at
the May primaries a measure provid-
ing for a two mill special road tax.
This will not be substitute for the
bonding measure. which will also be
upon the ballot.
The resolution placing the meeting
upon record for direct tax measure
on the ballot was introduced by w.
w. Harrah and was supported on the
floor chiefly by Mr.. Harrah and SEN
ator c. A, Barrett As finally am
ended it provides for a two mill spec
ial road tax, in addition TO the two
and a half mill general road tax, to
provide money for permanent road
building, said money to be spent uns
der the direction and supervision OF
the county court. The tax, if the
measure carries, is to be levied dur
ing the years 1916, 1917. 1918, 1919
and 1920.
The measure was fought chiefly By
the west end delegates who argued
that two measures on the ballot with
factions supporting each would tend
to kill both Senator ]. N. Burgess
and Asa B. Thomson opposed it on
the further ground that no provision
is made for the roads to receive the
benefit from the tax. THE people
will never vote for that much money
without definite knowledge as to
where it will be spent" said Senator
Burgess.
Warm discussion ensued and would
have continued probably interminably
had not the chairman put the question
to a vote. The vote stood SO for and
IA against.
west End for Bonds.
The west end delegation stood SOL
idly for the bonding measure and de-
clared their section OF the county
would give a majority 20 the measure.
The principal opposition to the bond
ing measure came from those who ia
vor a hard surface road to Cold
Springs Landing for which the bond
ing program makes no provision.
As a sort OF compromise between
the two factions a motion was made
at cne time to raise money by bond
ing for the purpose OF building hard
surface roads from Pendleton to
Umatilla and from Pendleton 60
Athena and on to Cold Springs
through Helix Upon motion by Har-
rah this plan was laid on the table.
Senator Barrett injected some feel-
ing into the meeting by declaring that
the bonding program was mapped out
by a bunch of hand-picked delegates.
Both Chairman Robinson and Asa B.
Thomson. members of the original
good roads committee. took occasion
to resent Barrett's statements, de-
claring that he (Barret) had been a
member of the original committee
and, though invited, had failed to at
tenG the meeting for the first discus
sion of the bonding plan.
Ths west enders contended strongly
for t hard surface road down the
Umatilla river to Umatiiia as the best
feeder for the open river. whereas the

ing vote of 1873 to 81, the house de.

UmatlllR county was visited
yesterday afternoon by an electri-
cal and rain storm that in spots
assumed unusual violence. In
fact In three different commune
ties Il took the form Of cloud
burst and sent destructive vol
umes of water down canyons.

reported such occurrences In their
neighbOrhoOds.
In PendletOn the storm did not
manifest itself in very ugly
mood, Rather heavy showers fell
during the afternoon and there
was some lightning visible. How
ever no damage is reported I'm this
vicinity.
4 good many Pendlcton motor
lists were out In the storm, sew
eral cars having been caught In
the vicinity of Milton. They re-
port that rocks as large as wash
tubs were rolled into the road and
that traffic for time was almost
impossible.
Parties returning from the east
end Of the county gfve startling
tales Of the damage inflicted at
Milton and Weston by the cloud
burst INST evening, j. V. Tallman
was in an auto making the run
home from Walla Walla last
evening. Coming through Milton
they saw the streets 50 flooded
the water was running directly
into store fronts. Chickens had
sought high places for safety and
big stumps had been washed into
the road by the storm. II. ".
Fletcher made the trip over the
road to-day and says much debris

tween Weston and Milton and
danger signs have been posted.
The storm caused the channel OF
