P AVING PLANS FOR
CITY APPROVED
Property Owners Express Approval Of
Proposed Paving Proposition
Council Appoints Engineer.

That the streets Of the city OF Warren
should be paved seems to be the general
opinion Of the majority Of tax payers
and property owners on streets to be
paved, as expressed at a public meeting
held at the city hall THURSDAY evening
pursuant to a call issued by the City
Council. .t Z
The meeting was largely attended by
those interested in the paving PROPOSE
ton, both sides for and against be
Ing well represented.
Mayor R. B. Taralseth explained the
purpose Of the meeting and called at
tention to the fact that the council had
been frequently and harshly critized OH
the condition Of the streets, both in
wet weather when mud was knee deep
and in dry weather when the streets
were rough and full Of bumps. He
stated that for a number Of years the
council had been investigating the mat
ter Of improving our streets and had
prac tically completed plans for gravel
ing when they found that the cost of
crawling would amount to about half
of the cost Of permanent paving.
Mayor Taralseth presented figures on
the cost Of different kinds Of paving
from several towns about the size OF
Warren and explained that on account
Of our proximity to the sand and gravel
pits it is quite probable that Warren
will be able to secure bids for the paw
ing contract at very attractive figures.
He stated that the council had already
received an offer from the Continental
Bonding Company OF Minneapolis, for
the financing Of the job at low rate Of
interest. Bonds will be issued payable
in fifteen equal annual installments
bearing interest at the rate OF 51Aa pc.
cent. He stated that the council planned
on having all preliminary work com:
pleted this fall so as to be prepared to
let bids for the work during the winter
months when competition among con.
tractors would be keen, thus securing
lower prices.
Mr.. Taralseth showed large plat OF
the city showing the streets which the
council had selected for paving. While
&c re Eaay be seene slight changes owing
to opposition in certain quarters it il
probable that the greater part of the
plans will be approved.
Mr.. Sheppard, an engineer from St
Paul, was present and gave some inter
esting answers to questions asked by
citizens in regard to paving and condi.
tions here.
Many leading citizens spoke in favor
Of the proposed paving plan and coin.
mended the council on the action they
have taken in the matter. Mr.. Lamber.
son and Mr.. Hage, members of the
council explained different matters in
regard to the proposed plan. Other
citizens present proposed that certain
other streets be included in the paving
area and it is very likely that when
final arrangements are completed that
considerable more paving will be in
cluded.
Louis P. Wolf, of st. Paul, has been
appointed as engineer by the City Coun
Gil and it is expected that man will
be on the ground in a few days to make
a survey and do other preliminary work
in preparation for paving.

JOHN BARRETT TELLS
 OF MINING OUTLOOK IN
 COPPER RIVER VALLEY

Alaskans are returning from war industries and from military service to prospect for gold in all parts of the north, according to J. E. Barrett, president of the Commercial club of Mccarthy, Alaska, and part owner of the Gren group of copper claims near rived from the north on business, which he expects will detain him in Seattle for several weeks.
 Mir Barrett says many of those who joined in the stampede to Shu- shanna several years ago. are return ing to prospect for further pay on ground which they are convinced is not worked out He looks for an ex- change of ownership of many of the properties which have been idle for years.
 With so many of the old timers re- turning" MT. Barrett points out, mo one should go north without some money. Any man with sufficient fund, say $500, can devote his time for few months to prospecting with out worrying whether he has job. The outlook is better this season for the prospector than for the man working for wages" @
 Mccarthy is still situated in one of the best gold districts in the coun- try, with quartz belt running paral- Tel to the copper belt and gold-bear- ing for the entire distance. With tho construction of good roads into this and other promising areas, the most important problem for Alaskan devel- opment will be solved" <
 Speaking of Cordova, the ocean ter minus of the Copper River and North western Railroad, Mr.. Barrett said: !,
 "Cordova is destined to become the metropolis of Southwestern Alaska. It is the distributing center for the en' tire Copper river valley and for the Fairbanks valley during the greater part of the year. Cordova is also be. coming one of the most important fishing towns along the coast" Sc. attle Times.

Science Adds Profits
to Dailyman's Efforts

Dairymen are entitled to a fair
profit on their investment and la
Dor, but it is not fair to consumers
of dairy products TO be taxed for
wasteful production, comments the
Oregonian. Dairyman are today tes-
tifying to the value of scientific
methods of production in cheapening
the cost.
"In two years time my cream
check has increased from $142 to
$1S7 a month from the same num-
Der of cows" writes a Linn county
member of the testing association.
my cows increased in milk yield
80 per cent as a result of improved
rations,' and when fed your ra-
tions cows yielding S2 pounds of
milk increased to AZ pounds" are
other reports of Oregon dairymen.
Feeding, breeding, record-keeping,
silos, and testing, marketing and
bull associations, are some of the
cost-production factors placed on a
scientific basis by dairymen cooper
ating with the federal department
of agriculture and the state agricul"
tural college.
Some of the things done are send

Ship building activities at Vallejo

morning six trains leave Oakland
Pier with 72 cars and within peri

Gov. 0lcott Will
Endorse Bond Issue

Gov. 0lcott in a recent statement
presented his policies to the public
as follows:
In assuming the duties of governor
l am keenly appreciative Of the un-
usual responsibilities devolving upon
the office of chief executive because
of the reconstruction period now be-
fore us. In my opinion this is time
when there is as great need for
vigorous flow of patriotism and 10y
atty as when We were sending thous.
ands of our boys overseas to fight
for the cause OF liberty.
Time after time, under the leader
ship of our late governor, Oregon has
demonstrated the depth Of her patri-
otism by her splendid record in fur
nishing her manhood, in subscribing
for liberty loans, the Red Cross, and
other war activities. These records
were made possible because the peo-
pie of the state learned to pull to-
gether in a common cause as they
had never done before.
The many serious problems Incl
dent to this time Of reconstruction
can be solved with credit to the state
II we can have the same oneness OF
purpose, the same sort of coopera-
tion by patriotic citizens, the same
sort of willingness to subjugate self
ish interests for the good Of a great
cause, as Oregon has displayed thru
out the war period.
For the sake Of the we'll being OF
this state, feel that this united sup
port should be given to the governor
regardless of the individual who
might occupy the office of chief exec
utive. This Is no time for the dis
play of factional strife. 1t is no time
for putting politics above patriotism.
1t is time for all of us to put our
shoulders to the wheel for the good
of common cause.
1t is a time for Oregon to forge
ahead. The legislature has provided
for big road building program. The
people will soon have opportunity to
express their opinion of commend
able reconstruction program. be-
lieve the people, on June 3, will ap-
prove the reconstruction bond issue.
1t is important that they should,
They ought to lend impetus to pri-
vate enterprise. They ought to en-
courage capital to seek opportunity
to connect up with industry. And
