THE BLUFF meditating upon the
question of building an elevator to
carry citizens up and down between
the business and residence sections of
the city, and is postponing definite ac
tion to consider possible .plans for an
inclined railway, instead of the more
sober and sedate "lift," wb.7 not also
pause and consider some other possi
bilities? Why not utilize the tower
that the well-known Ed Olds has built
on the top of the bluff, fit a cross arm
to it, and have a hoist put in opera
tion, shnilar to those in use in seaport
towns for loading grain?
Think of the attraction to tourists
that would result from such a scheme.
People would come from far and near
Just to enjoy an aerial voyage in a net
or hoist which would swing them glor
iously up through the air and deposit
them with a gentle thud on a grass
plot on the top of the hill. , Oregon
City would be famed throughout the
width and breadth of the land, anl
undoubtedly such a scheme would be
quicker and more economical than an
elevator.
If the hoist seems too abrupt a plan,
why not drop down from the top of
the tower a sizeable cable, down
which the citizens could slide in the
morning on their way to work, and up
which they could lift themselves,
hand-ovor-hand, for evening exercise
while on their way to supper. This
would develop both muscle and ap
petite, and if no easier than the pres
ent steps, would at least be a novelty,
'and a change.

Wealth of
Belongs to!
By Senator JOHN D.
CHE ruling class in this country is the moneyed class. Wealth,
power and position are ARRAYED AGAINST THE
MEN AND WOMEN WHO TOIL FOR A LIVELI
HOOD. They look upon themselves as superior to what they call "the
lower classes." '
The effective way to overcome this evil is to ELEVATE THE
STATION OF THE WACT. F.ATCTSTRRS oi,rh the r.0r f
the employer class.
No better way occurs .to my mind than REGULATION of
prices, wages and hours of labor.'
THE ACCUMULATION OF THE MILLIONS OF DOLLARS NOW IN
THE HANDS OF A COMPARATIVELY FEW PEOPLE IN THIS COUN
TRY HAS IN THE MAIN BEEN ACCOMPLISHED THROUGH THE
TOIL OF THE MANY UNDERPAID EMPLOYEES WHO ARE STILL
STRUGGLING FOR A MERE EXISTENCE.

the elevator matter for some months
now. It is just beginning to branch
into inclined railways. Why not car
ry the thing still further, and consid
er these other methods, which are
here but meagerly suggested?
ROOM FOR What public enthusiasm
MORE YET and publicity will do
was demonstrated Saturday in the
course of the Rose Show day features.
Oregon City had on hand an even
greater crowd than packed her streets
during the Booster Days, and all be
cause everybody pulled together and
the newspapers were utilized to
spread the tidings of what was to
come. Incoming trains from the north
and south brought their quota of vis
itors, farmers and ranchers came in
teams and by automobile, the inter
urban brought people from Portland,
and everybody in town turned out to
see the events and to admire the
roses.
The city was gafly decorated, busi
ness was brisk in the stores before
and after the parades, and the day
was a success in every way. There
was in the first place a series of pub
lic attractions that were worth while:
and in the second place everybody
within a radius of 50 miles knew that
something of moment was going to
Liappen in Oregon City. This is as it
should be. The only thing wrong is
that there should be more of it..
Oregon City has enough attractions
on its calendar to get several such
gatherings here each year. The gath
erings are good for Oregon City, and
they are good for the territory adjac
ent. They get people acquainted, they
establish a greater neighbbrliness,
and they improve trade both at homa
and in the nearby communities. Ore
gon City and Oregon City people
ought never to miss such an oppor
tunitythey ought to pull together
for the Rose Show every year, for the
Booster Days, for the Fourth of July
celebration, for Decoration Day ob
servances, for school fairs in short,
for everything that will tend to bring
people into town to see something
that is interesting and worth while.
There are plenty of interesting occa
sions, and it is the duty of the citizens
to see that they are worth while. The
local papers will take care of the pub
licity work; only so that visitors will
not be disappointed, the citizens must
dp their share, and co-operate as they
have done this year, and provide feat
ures that will make the city's guests
want to. come again and again.

The Fear
Of...
Recurring
Money
Panics
By JAMES G. CANNON,
President of Fourth
National Bank of
New York
IT isimpossible for a national bank advantageously to assist in
providing currency in times of panic under our present laws.
If, however, the power to issue notes against good commer
cial paper, either at face value or at a percentage of face value,
was LODGED WITH ONE CENTRAL ASSOCIATION, or,
Bince that seems improbable of accomplishment, then with several as
sociations or THROUGH THE SUBTREASURIES under federal
supervision the situation would be entirely different.
I BELIEVE THAT THE CLEARING HOUSES COULD BE UTILIZED
AS GUARANTORS OF SUCH COMMERCIAL PAPER, THUS PROVIDING
AN ABSOLUTE ASSURANCE THAT NO LOSS WOULD EVER OCCUR
TO HOLDERS OF CURRENCY SO ISSUED.
This would entirely ELIMINATE THE FEAR OE RE
CURRING MONEY STRINGENCIES and enable us to enjoy
the comfortable feeling that our currency was on a basis of elasticity
whereby it would respond to such demands as might be placed upon it
by the expansion and contraction of our trade and commerce.
And so it has seemed to me that if the clearing house is to form
the nucleus of a comprehensive currency system in this country, as
some of us believe to be possible, one of the first requisites is adequate
provision for incorporation. .
My own preference would be for a FEDERAL INCORPORA
TION LAW, something after the order of the national bank act.
years he was private secretary to Wil
liam Patterson, minister of customs,
and afterwards he served several
years as assistant commjsioner of
cutsoms. Mr. Bain was appointed
secretary of the dominion tariff com
mission in 1906. He was also secre
tary to the Canadian commissioners
on trade questions at the imperial
conference held in London in 1902.
In recent years he has been engaged
in private business, acting also as
imperial trade correspondent at Ot

A MYSTERIOUS DESERT.
Weird Tales That Are Told of the
"Soul Appalling Gobi."
Slowly we traveled across the great
waste of Dzunguria, the "soul appall
ing Gobi" of some writers, but to us a
land of beauty, even if of a somewhat
terrifying character, for here more
nearly than In any other land Is beau
ty allied to terror.
These silent steppes the natives be
lieve to be the baun: . of "genii" and
the rendezvous of evil spirits. As a
recent writer das said, "The great
sandy desert of (Jobl has been looked
on as the dwelling place of malignant
beings from the days of hoary antiq
uity." All luckless travelers In this region
from the days of Marco Polo onward
have recorded strange stories of weird
beings that inhabit the depths of the
wastes. Mysterious singing and wail
ing, beating of drums and distant mu
sic are said to beguile the traveler and
lead bim off the track until he is hope
lessly lost in the wilderness. A recent
Russian explorer gives quite a detail
ed account of the wild men of the des
ert. '
Listen to the strange story told by
Kosloff. who traversed the desert of
Dzungarla in its widest part not long
ago: "These wild men, the Kkz-Eyks,
as tbey are called, are covered with
short wool similar to the fur of a
young camel. They have long black
hair and black eyes. They are of ordi
nary size.ut rather long legged.
They roam the steppe In pairs, and
when harassed by man they scream,
whistle and snarl as they run away.
The native Kirghiz claim to have
caught them occasionally, but the cap
tives refuse food and drink and die
after a few days." Wide World Mag
