Benson,s Resignation

Chairman Simon Benson of the state highway commission
has resigned from the commission giving differ
ence opinion with Messrs Booth and Kdde the other
members Among the specific he cites, is the
srucon of small stretch of concrete pavement instead OF
buthc favored by Benson the construction of the Eu
geneake Greek road designated local road the refusal
let contracts this fall falling market for next years
existing high prices and the delay in completing the
Pacific highway.
None Of the grievances cited seem fundamental The
for the resignation probably the fact that the
other commissioners refused to longer subordinate their
judgment the chairmans Since the creation of the
mission Mr. Benson has ruled arbitrarily intoleran of
opposition and mpervous argument Because Adams of
Eugene failed agree with him. Benson forced his removal
because he differed from the chairman Booth who
ceeded Adams also resigned but induced to remain at
the governors intercesson.
The Pacific highway has not been finished because Mr.
Benson who dominated the commission to that the
available money used for the Columbia highway and
roads leading into Portland Neglect of the Pacific highway
caused the clashes with Adams and Booth Now that these
beneficial Portland completed Benson is for
finishing the Pacific highway.
Mr. Benson opposed constructing the Crater Lake high
and to that money that should have been spent
improving the main highway up Rogue river through al
settled region diverted to construct the Ter cutoff
which through wilderness and benefits far
less useful road than the Eugene-Lake Greek highway
Mr. Benson has rendered valuable service to Oregon in
promoting and building good roads and in the creation of
highway department and the great progress that has
been made in permanent highways particularly about Port
land largely due to his efforts His resignation will be
received with widespread regret But in naming E. Hauser
his successor the has probably made the best
selection possible for Mr. Hauser of the best qualified

the Oklahoma natural gas company that un-
less he exhibits contracts calling for an lcUate
supply OF natural gas by next Saturday the
conditional Increase In price granted the conf
pany recently will be abrogat,d
This IL in the direction of justice at least We
suspect that the patrons OF the gas company
will not complain so bitterly at n price advance

adequate supply for cold weather. That has not
been the experience OF the past We still think
that the certain remedy Is to be found in limit
ing tho gas company to domestic consumers for
u fixed period during the year.
Chairman Walker also explains that tho com
missions ruling on inadequate service, under
which the gas company is required to rebate
consumers In proportion to actual gas pressure
Is designed to protect the consumer; that the
protest of the gas company to this ruling is bc-
fore the supreme court and II decided by that
tribunal favorable to the commission will be
retroactive, thus forcing the gas company TO
rebate thousands OF dollars for poor service OF
the past.
This helps some. hut the commission should

The Horoscope

Thursday, April 8. 1920.

Thursday, April y. 1920.
The Sun rules strongly for good
today according to astrology.
During this sway men and women
should be able 20 appraise them
selves wisely and through self-con-
fidence TO gain great advantage.
1t Is a favorable rule under which
to seek employment or advance
ment. The wise will settle their
affairs now, for later there may be
trouble in obtaining desirable posi-
tions., since there may be reaction
after the period of plenty.
This should be a most auspicious
day for beginning any sort OF an
important enterprise.
During this rule IL is held lucky
to present gifts, since givers are
thus supposed to reflect the sunshine
OF great happiness.
Those who would find favor in the
eyes OF the great or the powerful
should make the best of this govern
ment of the stars.
The Sun is unhampered by evil as
poets from other planets and on a
day when the luminary thus domi-
mates it is wise to promote ambi-
tions.
The summer, which is likely to be
very warm, may bring a serious ep-
idemic that affects the digestive
tracts
Labor has an encouraging dlrec-
tion during this sway. and both men
and women should benefit.
A year ago last January astrolo-
gers prophesied the present shortage
of houses and they now prognosti-
cate a sensation regarding tho profi-
teering in building materials or some
commodity necessary in construction.
Despite government efforts toward
suppression, bolshevism will spread
