Lima, Peru. May IB. 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

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."

PUBSWPIETE
Five-Story Brick Will Be
Fart of the Good Samar
itan. '
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. ;
