' That the arch la going to.be- the
ource of a prolonged fight between
the council and the executive board
seems certain. Tha councilman contend
that the failure to have the arch ready
for the Rose Festival la due to Mayor
Lane for vetoing the ordinance appro
priating the money for the arch'a con
struction, thua delaying its erection.
The councilman alao aay that tha arch
will be finished and that it will remain
on the street until It becomes so old
that it will have to.be torn down.
Quite the opposite opinion Is held by
the executive board. The members aay
the council-had no business to author-;
Ire the arch and now that it has become
a white elephant upon the city the
executive board members want it re
moved as quickly as possible. They do
not want It finished and will contest
the payment for It. Furthermore they
will try to make Contractor Gorman's
bondsmen forfeit his bond, amounting
to 13.475, tha full amount of tha cost
' of tha arch. ': ...-
' Thought Arch Permanent. -Sweek
stated In his appeal to have
the matter referred to the atreet com
mittee that the' initiative In the matter
of an arch of welcome waa with the
council and that proceedings started
before the Rose Festival - association
knew anything about an arch. Sweek
also stated that he had always supposed
the arch to be a permanent affair and
said that he would not have Joined In
the request for the arch when It waa
contracted for bv the board had he aun-
Fosed the members were contracting
or a temporary structure.
This bit of Information came as a
surprise to . the members and It was
evident from their expressions that they
considered the arch aa part of the Rose
Festival solely and expected that It
would be torn down Immediately after
the festival ended. . However, the coun
cllmea when discussing tha arch ' de
rided upon one that would remain for
at !mt thnw
Contractor Gorman was present yes-
iciuay miu explained max me aeiay in
the construction was due to an error
maue in constructing some of tha plas
ter forma These did not fit properly
ana new ones were eraerea. . it waa
impossible to have them made to com

- ' FROM WATERFALL TO CAR WHEEL. : J
If question were asked the average rider a to the aource of
the propelling power for the electric cars, the answer would be
"Willamette .Falls at Oregon City or Clackamas river," and he
would be very much surprised to learn that, as a matter of fact,
only a small part of the system receives its current directly from
the power house, ; . . ,.;
Most people arc content t0 accept the' motorman's pet name,
'juice.?, as the best description of this mysterious p5wer and have
no idea whatever as to how it is generated or what happena to
it from the time it leaves the power house up to the time it per
forms the useful: function of moving the cars. , '
' 1 However, it is not a verv comolicated matter, but. on the eon.
trarv, a very interesting one to follow the path 61 the current from t
its beginning in the rushing waters ot tne rivers to the time that
it performs Its work. , 1 , tif ' ' " ' -
"; ': When water power - is mentioned as a source of .energy for
driving cars or machinery, or producing electric lieht. it is natural
. to thiiut pf such power as costing nothing., Such an idea, is erro
neous tor, although tne water and its tall, are Natures gift, "the
utilization is often expensive. A. glance at the massive dams and
flumes, stone and brick cower and transformer houses and it the
v hundreds of tons of concrete foundations will show, hoV.much must

Or. after the serine freshets a lone hot season with .its conse-'
quent - evaporation , will lower the, flow of the river, when not
enougn water is avaiiaoie to supply tne turoines. . .
In such iases power, must be generated by steam; and boilers,
engines and dynamos must be kept in readiness for use, thereby
entailing such investment and payroll expense, which otherwise
would not be necessary. ; j ' v""
- In Portland two sources of water rower are in use Willamette
.' Falls and Clackamaa river. . As reserves, steam plants costing, many
'thousands of dollars are maintained at Station E" (Twenty-fourth
street ana Sherlock avenue) and at . station Jr on the east side,
both conuining expensive electric and steam apparatus. Whenever'
the water power fails for any reason, these steam plants are ope
rated, and must be constantly kept ready for, an emergency. , ' , ,-
The current generated at the power house ia "alternating' cur
rent," while the current used on thevtrolley wires is what is known
as "direct current,' It is impossible to distinguish between these
two currents , in a nontechnical way, but the practical reason for
generating alternating current in the first place is that alternating
current can be transmitted a long distance at high voltage over' s
email amount of copper, while the amount of copper neceaaarr for
the distribution of direct current at low voltage would be so great
as to make tne cost proniDrave. meretore, tne method adopted la
to divide the system up into sections, in each one of which is a
substation which receives the alternating current from the main
power house and changes it to suit the requirements of the, car'
or electric light, service. . 5 -J: ..-' : v ,- -'-'--' ''.:.
From the generators In the main power house the current passes
to -the alternating current switchboard at 10,000 volts, thence to
transformers where voltage is "stepped up to 33,000 volts, from
which it is distributed to- the respective, substations located at dif
ferent parts of the system. The current travels over copper wires
supported on , specially constructed . porcelain Insulators of ' the
highest grade and capable of standing a strain of 50,000 volts.
After it reaches the substations it passes through what ia known
as a step-down" transformer, wmcn reduces it from 33,000 volts
to 2,300 volts and passes it to the motor generators or rotary con
verters which change it from alternating to direct current at 373
volts, the working pressure at which it Is delivered to the trolley
wires. Other portions of the current pass into transformers which
reduce the pressure sufficiently for safe distribution throughout
the city for. electric light and power.- f - ,
t From the substations Jthis oower is distributed to the resbective
trolley sections by feeders, and tapped into the "trolley wire at
suitable distances. It then travels' down the trolley pole and, by
cables concealed in the car, to the controller. From that it goes
to the motors, where it does its work in moving the car, and passes
on through the wheels to the track and so back to the substation
again.,: . : ':'.:y-;:
To give an idea of the intricacy and extent of the oower system.
over 300 miles of wire are necessary for the transmission and dis
tribution of the current, in addition to over 400 miles of trollev
wires and connections and the great amount of complicated ma
chinery at the power . houses. ' '
When the car or electric' lieht service is interrunted in some
section of the city by a mishap to any one of these complicated
parts, from the water wheels to the wiring and the motors in the
cars, you can now form a better estimate of the exeat care that
nas to oe taxen in tne operation and maintenance of such a vast
11 electric system.
