US' THE MPRNIKG OKEGONIA2, THURSDAY, APBIL 20, 190o. M FROM EUROPE A. H. Devers Returns From Tour of the Continent. GREATLY ENJOYS HIS TRIP Bays Municipal Ownership of Kail ways and Street Hallways In Europe Has Proved Great Success. A. H. Devers returned to'. Portland last '-evening after spending four months vis iting different countries In Europe. Mr. Devers, who left Portland in December, met Mrs. Devers and daughter Mabel in Berlin. Mrs. Devers and their daughter accompanied Mr. Devers to New York on the return trip, where they will re main until May before coming to Port land. "I enjoyed every minute of the time I was in Europe," said Mr. Devers last night. "We visited nearly every country in Europe, enabling us to form an intelli gent Idea of the success and shortcom ings of the municipal and governmental ownership of street and Continental rail roads. In fact, we found very few short comings in the railroads and railways that were controlled by municipal or gov ernmental ownership. "I came to the conclusion, through my Observations, that municipal ownership of street railways in Europe has proved Ho be a great success. In the cities where the lines were controlled by private in dividuals the fares were higher and the 'service very poor. The cities that own their own systems not only reduce the iares and give the better service, but have succeeded in obtaining considerable reve nue from them which has been used to Jower the ratio of taxation. Germans Excel in Opera. "We made it an especial point to at tend the operas in nearly all the cities We visited. I will say that as far as jpcenlc effects are concerned the Germans are far advanced of the American theat rical managers. I think, however, that 'the Italians "have the most sympathetic 'and beautiful voices. The French operas jsv-ere also excellent. "One of the things that greatly im pressed me was the begging of the Itali ans. It seemed as though everyone we fimet expected something. But all those who approached us were willing to do eomething. I remember one time in Rome we went driving. A little boy, elegantly dressed, who looked as though he came Trom an aristocratic family, followed our 'buggy for fully a half an hour, stopping every" few seconds to turn handsprings Tor our amusement. "When we gave him a lew cents he was perfectly satisfied. Conditions Bad in England. "The poorer classes of people seemed to "be more prosperous In Continental Eu rope than in England," continued Mr. Devers. "In England the conditions are ykry bad. The drink habit seems to be !the great failing of the English people, that is, among the working classes. "We saw very little drunkenness until we got to England. There the streets were filled with people under the influence of Intoxi cants. London Is th great financial cen ter of the world. It is far ahead of New "York in that respect. The wealth seems "So be massed in the hands of a few, which no doubt accounts for the poverty. "Europe is a great country, and we vis ited some wonderful and beautiful cities, but nevertheless I am glad to get to Amer ica and Portland. The European cities "keep their streets a little cleaner than we do in Portland, but Oregon is good enough for me. Oh, say," said Mr. Dev ers, "I want to tell you that I saw and ate some of our famous Hood River ap ples in Berlin. I saw them In front of a fruit stand, and they instantly reminded me of Oregon. I inquired and found out that they came from Hood River. You bet they looked mighty good to all of us." "Work Soon to Be Begun. CHEHALIS, "Wash.. April 191 (Special.) The Puget Sound Eastern Railway Com pany filed articles of incorporation with the Lewis Count Auditor yesterday. The trustees of the new company are: John Bchram, H. R. Clise. John E. Ryan, E. P. Vhitlng and R. A. Swan, of Seattle; L. X.. lies, A. E. Thompsln and Charles "W. Taylor, of Everett, and H. "W. Holmes, of Seattle and Everett.
