PoRTLAND's GOOD WORK
y ULTNOMAH

nN ULTNOMAH county
JUk cast more than two
to one vote in favor of
the road bonds and by the good
majority rolled up saved the
bond issue from defeat. All
this despite the factsthat Port
land will pay approximately
one third of the auto licenses
of the state yet is expressly pro-
hibited from having one cent
of the bond money expended
in Multnomah county. In other
words the Portland people
voted for the benefit of the
state at large with but inciden-
tai benefits to themselves. They
were right about the matter at
that, from strictly selfish
standpoint. Nevertheless the
of that fact re-
Quired some intelligence and
breadth of thought char
acteristic that unhappily does
not seem very prevalent along
the Beautiful Willamette south
CT the metropolis. Portland is
to be congratulated upon its |
road vote.

A NEW METHOD OF LOCAT-
ING ARTILLERY

q TORIES from the front
81 show how stationary bal
looms and other aircraft
have been used on each side as
means of locating the enemy
artillery 50 as to secure their
range. Now an American in
.vention promises to improve
ION this method, as far as the
allies are concerned.
1t was perfected by a promi-
nent earthquake observer, who
developed a special recording
instrument that would catch
the tremors caused by the ex-
plosive shock of distant guns.
and by a nice computation
show the distance and direc-
ton OF the artillery.
These delicate records are
modelled on earthquake mea-
sures and are tested by being
placed at different distances
lflom guns and hoKitzers of
/ known calIbeT. The trerloT
waves, are recorded By a
needle on a clOckWOrk drum of
paper. From these recorded
I tremors the scientist makes
. his calculations. Not only
does the explosion note itself
'on the drum. but the course
and distance of the projeo tile
can be determined by the same
indicator.

trated on one subject with
such marked developments a!

tons are both surprising anC
startling.

Of Moisture Important.

PendIeton's first attempt at univer-

gardens have developed very rapidly
in last few days and in spite of the
backward spring, should yield abund-
antly.
one of the most important items
from now on will be the conservation
Of moisture. Already the sun has
caused the ground TO dr. and bake in
many places. Frequent stirring of the

branch of the North Carolina Legfs-
lature this morning concurred in the
action OF the Senate In increasing the
salary OF the Governor to $500. and

Governor-elect Beckett was elected to
serve from January /. and that his
influence on legislation is as great
now as it will be after he Is inaug-
urated tomorrow.
Four of the most prominent Re-
publicans in the Senate voted for the
measure.
