THE FASHIONS
Before very long, thin summer
frocks and the light suits will have to
be put away for the heavier fall gar
ments to take their places. It often
happens that the rst chill winds catch
us unprepared, and certainly there is
nothing more upsetting than to realize
that we had not given a thought to
the coming of fall and were, conse
quently, not ready for the change in
the weather. ;
The autumn styles are already well
established, so no one need be afraid
to make her selection in suits and
gowns early, for there is no danger
that they will not be in good style lat
er. The suit models that have come
over from Paris are as attractive as
they can be. The coats are mostly
three-quarter length and some of them
are shorter. They reach to the hips,
the finger tips or the knees. The
skirts are quite full; just as full as
thy were last fall, but not so flaring.
The lines are straighter, as a rule, and
the skirts just a trifle longer than
they have been worn in the past sea
sons. Strictly tailored suits, of course
do not have very wide or very long
skirts.
Among the coat styles there are
EDISON FOR WILSON
some Russian effects seen, which most
women will be happy to learn. One
of the favored models is fitted above
the waist and quite full below it, and
there are many variations of this idea.
A suit that gives promise of being
very well liked on account of its gen
erally becoming lines is illustrated
here. It has deep pockets which are
cut in one with the fronts of the coat,
and a narrow belt going around the
sides and back, but not the front. The
skirt that completes this suit has
pockets corresponding in cut to those
on the coat.
In the other suit shown here, there
is a suggestion of the Empire style,
the return of which we have been
hearing so much about lately. It
comes in a modified form, having a
panel in the front and back, and is
certainly most attractive.
A wonderfully smart suit from
Paris was made of navy blue gabar
dine, with a very long, full coat. The
Electrical Wizard Points to Presi
dential Acievements
Thomas A. Edison,, the electricity
wizard, republican and supporter of
Theodore Roosevelt for the presiden
tial nomination, Sunday announced
that he would work and vote for
Woodrow Wilson. He said:
"Not since 1860 has any campaign
made such a direct call on simon-pure
Americanism. The times are too ser
ious to talk or think in terms of re
publicanism or democracy. Real A
mericans must drop parties and get
down to big fundamental principles.
"More than any other president in
my memory, Woodrow Wilson has
been faced by a succession of tremen
dous problems, any one of which
decided the wrong way would have
had disastrous consequences. Wilson's
decisions so far have not got us into
any serious trouble, nor are they like
ly to.
"It has been said that Wilson at
first was against preparedness. Per
haps he was, but when convinced that
intelligent public opinion was over
whelmingly in favor of it, he changed.
That is the proper thing for our pres
ident to do. A president defiant of
public opinion would be a dangerous
man in our government.
"His attitude on the tariff shows
an equal openness of mind. A tariff
commission will take the whole prob
lem out of politics. It is my hope
that experts will be named and that
the body will be continuing and vested
almost with the dignity of the su
preme court."
skirt also was very full. It extend
ed up above the normal waistline,
where it was attached to a blouse of
brown and black checked silk with
small checks. The coat was lined
with this silk, and when thrown open
the effect of the whole costume was
very striking.
Suit Fabrics and Colors
There are charming suit materials
for fall, which will perhaps make it
difficult to decide on what to get. Be
sides the old stand-by, serge, there is
its staunch companion, gabardine
then there are wool poplin, wool ve
lours, broadcloth, cheviot, mixtures,
and many fancy twills and suitings
For dressy wear, velvet, velveteen
and satin will be very much in the
foreground. The checked wool ve
lours are very stylish in two tones.
as, for instance, black and brown, tan
and brown, and gray and brown. They
are most practical, too, for they wear
very well. The fashionable self tones
are navy blue, dark brown, green
taupe, gray, burgundy and black.

fashionable this year ? If so, let her
fear be turned into joy, for fur is to
be used even more lavishly than it
was last winter. The bands of fur
on skirts are wider, the fur collars
on coats just as high, and the cuffs on

skunk are the furs most commonly
used, and there are also Hudson seal

Preserving the Peo
ple's Heritage
By Rep. Scott Ferris
of Okla.
LANE OFFICIALS VISIT
There is no need to argue the ques
tion of conservation to the American
eople; they are educated to its im
portance and alive tc its necessity.
It is attempted in this short article
only to show how thoroughly the pres
ent democratic administration has
guarded the heritage of the whole
people from exploitation and usurpa
tion by the few and passed or inaugu
rated legislation which will preserve
and make useful to the whole nation
our public domain.
The nation, in spite of the tremen
dous waste under republican adminis
tration, is still rich in natural resourc
es and has vast propeity interests to
be protected. Seven hundred million
acres of unentered, unappropriated
land still remain in public ownership.
Some of it is mountain land, some
semi-arid, some almost total waste
land. The Wilson policy is that this
vast domain shall be used for the ad
vancement and good of the whole
people, not the enrichment of the few.
It shall be made habitable and turned
into American homes.
The Homestead law, whiah has
passed the house is now on the senate
calendar and will soon become a law,
nlarges the homestead unit from 160
to 640 acres, so that an American
farmer will find it possible to go upon
this land and establish an American
home. Thus will the waste places be
made glad and homes take the place
of wildernesses.
There is thirty-five million poten
tial horse-power of hydro-electric en
ergy in the United Stales, six million
developed and in use, twenty-nine mil
lion running idly to the sea. Of this
last the Interior department adminis
ters upon about twenty-two million,
and about seven million is under the
urisdiction of the War department.
But all of it under the determined pol-
cy of President Wilson is being con
served and developed for the use of
present and coming generations of
Americans . The lax laws, tl'.s lack of
proper laws, the faulty administration,
the exploitation and waste of our pub
lic domain, all have been remedied and
topped.
A timberless nation Is weak at a
vital point. The one hundred and
sixty-five million acres of forest re
serves, which must furnish this and
ucceeding generations of Americans
an adequate timber supply, have been
igorously protected and conserved by
the Wilson administration. No long
er are there timber thievery, frauds
and depredations.
No chain is stronger than its weak
est link; any nation is crippled which
does not possess and control an ade
quate fuel supply. The fifty-three
million acres of coal land containing
four hundred and fifty billion tons of
coal, still in public ownership, is an
estate belonging to the American
people of inestimable value. So well
has the Wilson administration con
served this great asset that the most
fault-finding opponent finds no ground
for criticism of it.
The recent great development in the
use of oil as a motive power in ships,
automobiles, air ships and various
other engines has made it imperative
that the five million acres of oil land
still in public possession be most
carefully conserved. The Wilson ad
ministration, with trua and patriotic
foresight, has established naval re
serves in the far west, so that now
and in the far future our navy, our
industries and our homes are assured
of an adequate oil supply. No longer
are valuable oil lands passed to pat
ent at a dollar and a quarter an acre.
How different is this from the Taft
administration? The BalHnger scan
dals in the west, the Guggenheim
scandals in Alaska, the water site,
coal land and oil land grabs on all
sides are fresh in the minds of the
people. But no whisper or scandal or
even carelessness or inefficiency is
heard of the Wilson administration.
What has been said of the other
public lands is true of the two mil
lion seven hundred and eighty thou
sand acres of phosphate lands, which
contain roughly twenty billion tons of
phosphate easily worth ninety billion
dollars and available to American
farmers for fertilization purposes.
Here, too, the Wilson administration
has exercised the same vigilance and
care and there is the same absence of
criticism.
Alaska, that wonderful store-house
of riches, was by preceding adminis
trations first maltreated, then neglect
ed. There were the Guggenheim
frauds and scandals. Coal, timber and
oil lands, harbor and wharfage sites
were frittered away with no concern
for the rights of the hundred million
Americans who owned them. Then
when public opinion was succeeded by
a period of stagnation, and Alaska
was locked up, its resources unused,
its growth stopped. It fairly began to
wither and die.
But with the Wilson administration
came a change and an awakening, a
new and better era for Alaska. Fraud
and scandal and rumors of fraud have
ceased. Alaska has come into her
own, and all America can rejoice in
and enjoy her princely worth.

happiness to the American people,
We have in national parks and monu
ments nearly five million acres. Un
der the national parks service law.
passed by the Wilson administration
these parks are being enlarged and
beautified, and made accessible by
good roads.
The CONSERVATION policy and
record of achievement of President
Wilson commends itself with invinc
ible force to all .believers in conserva
tion. It has been wise, consistent,
strong and energetic, and great
accomplishment.
County Court Would Consider County
Laid Hard Surface
Regarding the visit of Lane county
officials, including County Judge H. L.
Brown and County Commissioner M.
H. Harlow to Oregon City this week,
where they came to inspect the
county-laid paving which has aroused
county governments throughout the
state to the thought of the great sav
ing that can be effected by ousting the
corporation pavers and doing away
with their immense profits, the Eugene
Guard says:
"In Clackamas county a non-patented
pavement is being used and is
costing from $1.25 a yard down to
about 45 cents a square yard. The
latter price is for the Milwaukie-Sell-wood
road, where the bituminous
pavement was laid on top of a worn
out macadam.
"Roads under this specification in
British Columbia have been in use
for several years without repairs and
are in good shape. Pavement of this
type laid 22 years ago at Visalia, Cal.,
is still in good repair.
"The county court has made no de
cision in regard to this type of hard
surface road, but will investigate it
thoroughly, and if it is found to be
what is claimed for it, arrangements
will probably be made to use it in Lane
county. With pavement of this class,
a program of annual construction
would be adopted, and the hard sur
face extend gradually to all parts of
the county. At 40 cents a yard, the
price of the hard surface roadway is
practically the same as that of water
bound macadam, and is far more permanent."
