The people of ihm renublic have Just demon strafed their wish for enduring peace by rising i with the government against a power ful attempt at revolution led by par- ' ties who, 10 years ago, were successful in ousting the administration of Gen eral Cacerea in a bloody fight that left 1.000 corpses on the streets of this city. That attempt was Jed by Don Nicolas Plerola, who had been secretary of ths treasury under President Balta, In the Hush days of Harry Melggs, and who succeeded in making the mob believe that ha could bring back to Peru the old days of extravagance and abundant work for all men. But Plerola failed to make good. He was found to be an In' dated fool, with no talent of states manship and terribly corrupt. ' As a candidate before the people to : succeed himself he failed, on the prin ciple uttered by your great President Lincoln, that "you can't fool all the people aU the time." As the party in power, the Clvlllstas, the most intelll . gent class of the population and purest, had put forth their candidate in the ' person of Dr. Lerula, Pierola Induced his friends, the Drs. Durand, to under take a revolution, while he remained in ' the background and directed proceed- 'They began operations In the moun tains on the line of the great railroad of the country, and raised a nucleus of aa army, capturing and forcing to Join them the various little companies of cenda pines on the line as they ap proached the city. But the people or the region have given them the cold shoulder and betrayed them to the au thorities, so that betore tney got nere they have been met and routed and a considerable number have been cap tured. Plerola is under surveillance ' and the Brothers Durand have gone where? The last seen of the leader was the end ' of his coat-tail disappearing over a high pass in the eastern range of the Andes. There Is a terrible Indignation against the prisoners who have been brought in, and an attempt to kill them by lynch ing' was prevented by the energetic ac tios of the prefect of Lima, who had heard of the attempt, which seems to have been well organised by some of our beat cltlsens,.who have determined that there shall never be another revolution In Peru-:. - - 01 FORFEITURE l!i FIVE LOfIG YEARS M. E. Lee Declares Home Buyers Fully Able to Meet Payments. M. E. Lee Is another realty broker ex tenslvely engaged In handling suburban property who has little or no trouble with purchasers defaulting on their contracts. While discussing this fea ture of the real estate business, Mr Lee had the following to say: "In the selling of many subdivisions and acre tracts in and near Portland In ' the past few years, it has been my ex perience that about half " of the sales are cash or half cash, while the other 1 half are sold on contract Many of these latter purchasers could pay the greater part or the purchase price in cash if : they-desired to disturb other good in 1 vestments which they figure return a greater rate of Interest than they are paying on their contract, which calls for only 6 per cent interest. "Only one forfeiture of contracts on either city or suburban property has occurred la this office during the past five years, which in our opinion is due to the fact that most of our sales are made to people who immediately Im prove for a homo, and the general pros perous condition, cltlsens who desire to escape from the crowded portion of the , city Co the fresh air of the suburb. Most of the people with whom we come ? In contact seem to have quite an amount of ready money and the contracts are usually paid upvmore rapidly than the time stated in them." , OPENS HERE AGAIN.

' Plar.s for the five-story wing of the Oood Samaritan hospital have been com pleted and the contract let for its con struction. Architects Whidden and Lewis, who superintended the construc tion of the main hospital building four years ago, designed the new wing and will have charge of its construction. This structure Is to be the central one of the group that will eventually occupy the hospital block. It will oc cupy a front of 120 feet on Marshall street east of the main building, and will have a depth of 100 feet. The plans call for a five-story brick structure with basement, the style of architecture to be an exact reproduction of the main building. The main entrance will be on Marshall street and leads to the main hospital office and reoeptton rooms on the first floor. -The remain ing floors' are to contain private rooms for patients, an operating-room and. a children's ward, wrlch is to be a- me morial to Dr. Gltsan. The memorial chapel to Bishop Morris will be. located on the top floor and will , face , on a court to the north. The old frame buildings'' occupying the site of. the proposed wing are to be tern out, work beginning tomorrow. The contract price is 7S,000. but the completed structure will probably re quire an expenditure of about 185,000. ; INVESTORS TURU 10 CITIES Sale in!
