THE SUNDAY OREGOyiAN, PORTLAND, APRIL 18, 1000. NEED NEW FLEET ON PACIFIC OCEAN Secretary Meyer Declares for Doubling Strength of Our Navy. GOOD PEACE INSURANCE Aiiot her Fleet on Pacific Kqual to That on Atlantic Other Nations Spend liarger Percentage on Navies. BOSTON, April 17. An efficient fleet nf battleships, both on the Pacific and Atlantic oceans, wan advocated by Sec retary Meyer in a speech tonight at the dinner of the Boston Real Estato Kxchanpo. Mr. Meyer also declared that a strong navy should be regarded as the cheapest and best insurance attalnst war. The Spanish "War, he said, i'ost more than half a billion dollars, while eiyht battleships of the OreRon type, which, ho implied, might have averted the war, would have cost less than $&0.000,000. Mr. Meyer said: It U Important that wo should not forgot that, thlle paee swlPties ar a power, tbeir r-htef vain la & formative influence, to stim uli! te fcmlmTit and crystal 11 ze public opin ion aenlns the, horror of war. The really etfectivo and nonorable method of avoid ing war is to be .prepared lor war by the pMMlon of an efficient, up-to-date and t horoiiKhly equipped fleet of battle-ships, tint h on i he Atlantic ami Pacific Oceans. Our officers and men demonstrated their efficiency and the battle-ships their sea worthiness when they made the circle of the giohe wtt bout an accident and on a tibedule of time which has undoubtedly ex cited the envy nf very general manager of our transcontinental railroads. That net, which has worked so well as a unit, should not be divided between the Atlantic nnd the Pacific, but our naval armament should be so provided for that eventually we shall (have a force of battle-ships In s.ch octan equivalent to that which we now have iu the Atlantic. Con Id Save by Spend una;. In this country we are brought up with a respect for the majesty of the law, and It is In accordance with what I may call our National conscience to deal justly with other pom ers. But It Is essential that we houM be in a position to demand Justice for ourselves. One must aJso take Into account th-e ac companying death roll and sick list. In ad d It Inn, we have paid in pensions on ac count of the Spanish War about $20,000,000 to date and Heaven only knows -what It will finally amount to. The total paid for penMona to date as a result of the f'lvli War la over three and one-half bil lions of dollars. Navy Insure Against War. The Navy of the United State should be ivK-arded as an Insurance against war and the consequent enormous lotsses incident to war. But in order to serve as an Insur ance, It imiPt bo a strong; and effective navy. It in the cheapest and best insurance In which our Nntion can Invest. Great Brit ain, whose total value Is about ti0.tXR".000, 0. expends annually on her navy J per eent of this valuation; France, with a val uation of nearly ". OOO.OOO.OOO, expends 1 .1-10 per ctut ; while the United States, with a total wealth of a little more than S10u.0iXt.OOU.O0O. expends but l-lO of 1 per eent annually for naval purposes, an expend iture vastly less than that of any other naval power In the world, compared with our resources, Mr. Meyer went on to discuss munici pal government, and said: "We must become less hscal in our se lections and be prepared to put Into the Mayoralty chair, men from any part of the stale who have shown special aptitude or capacity for the duties required of the of fice This policy has been followed by srreat corporations. How long would a corporation succeed that lftmlted the selec tion of Its officers to Its stockholders? The method, also, of calling capable Mayors from one city to a larRer city has been successfully tried on the Continent and resulted in an expert set of officials who enter office free of all obligations, having their reputations to maintain by an admin istration well managed.

SAYS FLAWS ARE MANY Declares Private Business Should Be Lert In Private Hands When Xot Inimical to Rights of People of Country. NEW YORK. April 17. Wade H. El lis, assistant to the Attorney-General of the United States, at a banquet of the "Westchester County Bar Associa tion tonight advocated radical amenri. j merit of the Sherman anti-trust law. "The power to control the prices is the wrong which all anti-trust tat- uien seek to prevent," said Mr. Ellis. "With respect to gigantic combinations of capital engaged in a purely public service, like the railroads, there is no need of any limitation whatever upon their right to make mutual, agreements. "Why? Because such grecmonts do not and cannot control prices, since the charges Imposed for tho service are controllable by the states or by the Nation Itself. "The railroads must be encouraged to keep pace with the industry of the country. It is a lamentable fact that railroad facilities in recent years have not responded to the commercial growth of the country. "While it is true. however. that travel agreements and pools between railroads now forbidden by the anti trust act ought not to be forbidden. It Is not true that a necessary condi tion to railroad Improvement is that all Governmental supervision shall cease. The railroads are not engaged in pri vate business. They are public serv ants. "In no amendment of the anti-trust act must we make matters worse by paternalizing the attitude of the Gov ernment toward private business. If the National Government once enters upon the domain of exercising, through executive or administrative officers, the function of intimately supervising the affairs of purely private business enterprises, the next step will be a very short one to the conduct of busi ness itself and Socialism will be at hand. "I submit these propositions that we must keep in mind in any amendment of the Sherman act: "That the meaning of the law must be made clear; that the only real evil is the power to control prices; that no combination of capital should be condemned unless the Intent is to con trol prices; that the mere size of a corporation ought not to make it an outlaw; and that private business, so far as It is consistent with public welfare, ought to be left in private hands." ROAD CHALLENGES LAW ALLEGES LIABILITY ACT IS "UN CONSTITUTIONAL. Attorney-General Wiekersham File Brief in Support of Law Before Case Is Ended. to Washington, April it. Applying for such a construction of the railroad em- plovers' liability act of April 22, 1908, as I snail glvo the fullest effect defined by Cotigress. Attorney-General 'Wickersham has obtained leave to file a brief in sup port of the constitutionality of. that act in, a case brought under It by Grace Wat eon, administratrix of the estate of F. M. Watson, deceased, against the St. Louis, Iron Mountain & Southern Railroad. This is pending in the Federal Circuit Court for tho Eastern district of Arkan sas. Watson, a fireman on the Iron Mountain road, was killed in a collision while on duty and the complaint alleges that the company and Watson's locomo tive were engaged in interstate commerce. The railroad. In its demurrer, contended that the act was unconstitutional, because it made a railroad liable to any employe engaged in interstate commerce for the negligence of employes engaged In local commerce, as well as employes not en gaged In commerce at all. DEVICE TO STOP T SANTA FE PRESIDENT IS MUCH PLEASED WITH INVENTION. Gives Control of Trains Xearing Sta tions to Dispatcher, Who Can Stop Them at Will. SAN BERNARDINO, Cal., April 17. That railway accidents can be almost entirely eliminated was the sentiment expressed by members of a party of Santa Fte officials, including President E. P. Ripley, who spent the entire day at the plant operated by P. J. Slmmen at Porris. Mr. Ripley passed through this city On his way to San Francisco to make an inspection tour through California, Ore gon and Washington.

By means of a third rail for half a mile on either side of stations, the dispatcher hag entire 'control over the train and can bring it to a stop at will if the engineer does not do so on signal.

Ti f Copyright o9 bv Hrt Sch.mief Man "JEFF" TORS NAMED SIGGlXTEn II Y DEMOCRATS AS MAYORALTY CANDIDATE. Committee Meets to Discuss Situa tion, but Takes Xo Definite Action. Jefferson Myors is the lattst nra t bo ouggested by the Democrats of Port land for the Mayoralty nomination. A meeting of the Democratic committee chosen to suggest available candidates was held last night. The committee dls ctiittsed matters till an early hour this morning and then adjourned without hav ing come to an agreement. The members decided they wanted more time to canvass the situation. Other names than Mr. Myers' were dis cussed at the meeting, notably those of Judge M. G. Munly and D. M. Danner. It Is said both these men have been sounded on their wish to run for the office of Mayor, and both are holding off from giving, a definite answer. It is reported "Jeff" Myers' name was received with great approbation by tiie Democrats assembled. George H. Thomas, chairman of the committee, said: "Personally ' I think Mr. Myers would make a good Mayor, and I should like to see him run. I believe there are others who think as I do, and I think he would not only make a good run. but would get votes outside the party." "This is all news to me," said Mr. Myers. "I have been out of the city for two weeks and have lost track of events. I can't say whether or not I would run if I were asked. I'll have to get In touch with things again and see how they shape up." Vancouver Will Clean 17p. VANCOUVER. Wash.. April 17. (Spe cial.) Mayor John P.
