ELEVATOR FOR BLUFF The rising generation continues to take up subjects either uathought of or considered impossible by our forefathers. Like many other items of interest to the general public, an elevator is a necessity, is a possibil ity and when installed, we will all ask each other and ourselves, "why didn't we do that long ago?" As in all matters, however, diffi culties "of one nature or another are encountered, and aa important one now seems possible to retard immed iate work. When our fathers laid out the town, Seventh street down town was not platted immediately opposite Seventh street on the Hill.- The on ly central location Ut an elevator is on Seventh street. Would that the Father of Oregon City had thought of this problem when laying out our beautiful city. He in that event would have left a promenade between Sixth and Seventh on the edge of the bluff at least 20 feet in width, in addition to the alley shown on the plat of re cord. There is no doubt about prop erty values increasing with the ele vator service and the ifoperty immedi ately adjoining would be given a boost such as no other civic improvement could give. When the council takes action, the owners of the property needed for this work, will probably come forth with the desired rights, knowing the value and aid to a large portion of our population, workers in our large factories, as well as to their wives , many of whom have babies, and who find it very difficult to visit the business district. This is a good live subject Boost for it! NOVELTY. The enormous influence of nov elty the way in which it quickens observation, sharpens sensation and exalts sentiment is not half enough taken note of by us and is to me a very sorrowful matter. And yet, if we try to obtain perpetual change, change itself will become monoto nous. The two points of practical wisdom in the matter are, first, to be content with as liitle novelty as possible at a time and, secondly, to preserve as much as possible the sources of novelty. RusLin.

Testing Fort Monroe's Big Coast Defense Guns i V." . V lllilililiiii Photos by American Press Association. ONE of the most Important artillery stations and schools in the world is that which is maintained by the United Stat government at Fort Monroe, Va., where the so called School of Submarine Defense and the Artillery School of Fort Monroe have been merged into an institution known as tbe. Coast Artillery school. Here officers aud enlisted men are in structed in the latest methods employed for the defense of the national coast line, and here are conducted tests of marksmanship and powder efficiency of. the highest importance, in which the big guns shown in Urn illustrations figure in a manner most interesting not only to those connected with the school, but to the many visitors at the big hotels across the bay at Old Point Comfort At the test during which the photographs reproduced above were taken some remarkable smoke effects were caught by the camera. The fort was entirely remodeled a few years ago, and its appearance is now quite different from that which it presented at the close of the civil war, when it was for two years the prison of Jefferson Davis , HEARST IS BY WILSON WASHINGTON, April 10. That Woodrow Wilson is overwhelmingly the choice of Virginia for the presi dency and that only politicains are working to prevent the election of an instructed delegation is the be lief of Richard E. Byrd, speager of the Virginia House of Representatives who is managing the campaign for Wilson, in his home state. "Virginia is for Wilson," said Byrd. "The judgment of the Democratic masses is a 3urer indication of the availabilitiy of a candidate than the personal opinion of any coterie of politicians. The same qualities which attract masses to the candidacy of a man for nomination will attract their votes after the nomination." There is no longer a denial of j charges that an alliance exists among several of the candidates to prevent j if possible, Governor Wilson's secur-1 ing the necessary two-thirds of the convention at Baltimore. A denial of j existence of a Hearst-Clark-Harmon-Underwood coalition would be redic ulous in the light of facts developed during the last ten days, which de monstrate conclusively that there is an understanding on the part of the allies. The public received the first confirmatory evidence of the existence of a "presidential trust" when Clark and Harmon "Gastoned" out of Flor ida, leaving a clear field to Under wood. Then came the retirement of Governor Harmon from the contests in Wesconsin and Illinois, in both of which states he maintained a large headquarters for weeks and months and conducted an aggressive cam paign. For some days th(-e has been inde cision among the allies as to who should be left in the field in Texas. The information today is that Govern or Harmon is to have Texas appor tioned to him as the anti-Wilson candi date. This would mean the withdraw al of both Clark and Underwood. In parceling out the states territori ally so that there will be only one can didate against Wilson in each state, the coalition has taken its cue from ao other than William R. Hearst, who is promoting the candidacy xf Speak er Clark in San Francisco, New York, and Chicago, and other points where he has papers, but in Atlanta, his pa per, the Georgian, favors the nomi nation of Representative Underwood.

ISAPHENA GREENMAN, Administratrix of the Estate of Clark N. Greenman, Deceased. Dated this 4th day of April, 1912. TAFT IS BY EMPIRE STATE ROCHESTER, N. Y., April 10. The Republican State Convention adopted today a platform urging New York'3 delgation to the Chicago Na tional Convention to favor the renomi nation of President Taft,, elected four delgates-at-large and alternates to that convention, and adjourned sine die. The delegates chosen are United States Senator Elihu Root, State Chairman William Barnes, J. William Berri, of Brooklyn and Edwin A. Mer ritt, Jr.; Speaker of the Assembly. Temporary chairman Butler was made permanent chairman when the convention was called to order. State Chairman Barnes read the platform, which was made public last night and whicha endorses President Taft. One plank1 of the Sherman anti-trust law was not made public until today. It reads: "We believe in adequate laws to prevent mondply in trade. We favor the retention of the Sherman anti trust act; but that it should be sup plemeted by further legislation to give the same certainity to the law controlling combinations and monop olies that characterize other provis ions of our commercial law, to the end that the field of business oppor tunity shall not be restricted by mon opoly or combination; that business successes honestly achieved, may not be converted into crimes, and that the right of all men to acquire any commodity, and particularly the nec essities of life in an open market, un influenced by the manipulation of trusts or combinations, may be pre served. "There should be provision for an administrative board for the better enforcement of the law against mon opoly. There should be further leg islation to define as criminal offenses specific acts which mark attempts to restrain and monopolize the trade; so that those who honestly intend to obey the law may have a guide for action and those who violate the law may more surely be punished.'.' The indorsement of President Taft brought general applause. ' Senator Root then seconded the res olution in a speech in which he con fined himself to a single subject of the platform the interference with the independence of the judiciary. "We can change the tariff laws on questions of general public moment," he said, "but the eternal principles of justice can never be changed without degraation of the people."
