William Cowper. B- S SUGG KSTK I 1XV INSTIGATION'S. THE New York KVeniriR Post Is publishing a series of letters in answer to the query, How to give wisely? The proposition involves the best expenditure of $10, 000,000, more or less, in some way or ways, to benefit the people, par ticularly in the Investigation of so cial problems. One answer, by a Georgia woman, suggests a thor ough, systematic Investigation of the prohibition movement, to ascertain, from all practical points of view Its effects, and she very Intelligently outlines plans for doing this. This . teems to us to be a commendable suggestion. Another would provide a great central Institution which should send trained men to Europe and else- vhare to Investigate socialism, so as to be thoroughly prepared to make a campaign against It. This writer "views with alarm" the alleged frrowth of socialistic sentiment, con siders It a dangerous disease, and says: "If It Is desirable to liave great laboratories to study the phe nomena of bodily disease of the physique, surely It. Is Important, In the highest degree to deyote one such Institution to studying whn may bfj termed a disease of the mind nnd soul." This person seems to be somewhat "diseased" himself. He confessedly would not seek to aim at getting all the facts, the whole truth, like the Georgia woman In the case of prohi bition, but hewants to send men out to fortify themselves to argue on one Bide of the subject. If they dis cover anything favorable to the other Bide, they are to suppress It. A few years ago an eminent theologian set cut to discover evidences supporting literally the story of the Xoachian deluge and of course, he found them. Those Investigators are nor to start out' with free, unbiased minds, but to get support for opin ions already tormed. Hy t lie way tnis is now many investigations are carried on. The present tariff com mission, for Instance, will find noth ing to support a proper revision of the tariff. But no such investigation is need ed. The people are gradually and Flowly investigating the claims and ('octrines of socialism, and there is no danger whatever that more of the socialistic propaganda will be accept ed and adopted than is practical and Useful to society. Some features of socialism, or at least of what re sembles and is analagous to social ism, should be adopted, such as large inheritance taxes, public own ership of coal lands, and perhaps public manap n.ent of express, car- ' s. These, if not '.p ot railioaus, are but the doctrine ot , or Irs principal will not be adopted and converts to it will always be few, because it is a totally unworkable ficheme, on earth. 1; might woik in heaven, but., not here. But let the socialists expound and declaim. They help educate ihe peo ple. They set workingmen to think ing, and the more they think il,. ( more Intelligent and useful citizen they will' become The average con vert will probably think himself on' of socialism after a little, but If he, does not he will alvas be one of a t-mali minority, and no harm is done . W hat !s good In socialism will J pradja!'.' be adopted; what is im-j praet i. a ale and impossible will never j appeal luvoraldv to a majority, or J i' n senat e rases.

The Chicago convention, by a vote of seven or eight to one, rejected the plank for election of senators by the people; the Denver convention adopted that plank as the Demo cratic conventions of 1!00 and 1904 did. This seems to make this mat ter a party question, although Mr. Taft dismissed it with the remark that it was not a party question. Personally, he is "Inclined" to favor election of senators by ihe people; as bis party's candidate he Is neces sarily against it. Bryan is unequiv ocally and zealously for it. With many Oregon voters this, in view of our recent experience, may well be a principal if not the para mount issue of the campaign. Those who so view it will logically vote for Bryan. Thousands of Republicans voted for the Statement No. 1 law, and such of tjiein as consider this question one of supremo importance, as many well may do, will be con strained to vote for the Democratic candidates this fall. ms to 1 thai I'Velt io' II Ilil.'l'SI I i; ;i r, and we sh (Itliel time, th moiauts having th satisfied.

A GOOD deal has been made by Republican newspapers of the Baltimore Sun's annonncemeuJ . l. , I. ......1.1 T . . ,' i una u wouni suppoii i.iii in stead of Bryan, as if tills were some thing unexpected and especially sig nificant. But the Sun, while a very worthy and a high-class newspaper, has never been favorably inclined to Bryan, or to any of the lefoimaioiy measures or movements, of which be Is the conspicuous champion. The Sun is an ultra conservative news paper, whose Ideal president, was Glover Cleveland, and which could have cordially supported no candi date more radical than Judge Gray. It is entirely out of sympathy with the methods If not the ideas of Presi dent Roosevelt, and it supports Taft rather than Bryan because Bryan rather than Taft stands for a vigor ous and progressive prosecution of the Roosevelt policies. The Sun in explanation of its position says: The pfoplo of this country are Just ler.inmnjs to recover from ;i period of Industrial, finmclal and .'niiiiuercial de pression (due. primarily and measure ably, to the methods, rather I'mn the object In y ieyv, of the Roosevelt admin istration in dealing yMth fust and e..--poratiori problems. The shu, has not hesltnted to condemn Mr. Roosevelt's methods, his application ef correctives whl.h. while failing to curb tire i w h'S.sness of "predatory wealth" and to impose julcpiat" pun ishment, tended to disturb business ce ditlons generally. The "Hig Stick" has been tried for four years, and it has In part resulted in disaster to labor and to capital. Mr. Hryan has his "His ("hip." and we frankly say that the "HiK t'luh" in Mr Hrvan's hands oul,i argue no better for the public weal than the "IUk Ste-k" has done The Sun. therefore, blames Roose velt for Ihe panic, because be prose cuted a few law-breaking trusts and corporations, and expressed some plain opinions about ther.i. This, it thinks, is an unwise and impolitic course. Ihe law-breaking combines may be mildly remonstrated with, or perhaps it would be better only se- T HE apprehension that the new battleships under construction, ostensibly for Brazil, in Kng llsh shipyards, are realK for reinforcement of the British navy, is the result of an imperfect knowl edge of present South American po litical cond ii Ions.

Assuming that this wna true to a limited extent, It was atlll largely tho fault of the Ko publlean candidates and their friend. and no one was more to blnme than the Fulton workers. A man who could be Influenced was told, often by tho registration officials themselves, thnt he could register as be choso and then vote In the primaries. And noma did who had no right to This la all wronii ffnd should be corrected, but It will lal.e somebody else than Fulton to cor rect the errors In any kind of a law. He gait niore benefit from any I'emo oratic votes In the primaries than Cake did and he and the iiiegonian well know It. and any 1'emoorat who wanted to participate In the Republican pri maries and help nominate the weak est candidate would certainly have voted lor Fulton. If Governor Cham tierlln Could betil Cake, he could have beaten Fulton a. 0(10 more votes, nnd would have done it. It was well under stood by politicians generally, that th" only chance lo beat the governor was to nominate ( ake. And I'aUe would have won but for Fulton's friends knifing him. There, as always. Fulton treacherously pr. tended to support Cake, while his friends were thrusting In the knife. Look at the vote In Clatsop county.

After Cake had admitted de fat and bowed to the will of the pi o ple it was declare, thnt Fulton was furious ovr the Plea of a I'einocrat being elected from the Republican state of i iregon.

Cake Is the only man entitled to the 'i.lnce. and there are several mem bers of the legislature who hold that vievv. Hut the Idea that the man who was under Roosevelt's displeasure dur inir most of his term on account of his bail reputation Is now the spokesman for Taft Is either untrue, or H Is no credit to Taft.

When an amendment was of fered and properly seconded to the resolution bv Judge O'Neill, leaving the site and street unsettled, the chairman refused to put the amendment. Mark O'Neill moved the previous uuestlon. do clnrlri-K that we, with emphasis on "we, have decided, Investigated and are deter mined thatMh bridge must and will h located on Sherman street, notwith standing that the people might decree or will otherwise. The citizens on the southwest side, to gether with those on tin- east side, are a unit on having a bildge oyer Willam ette river at the most available and ad vantageous site on either side of tho river. Should the bridge bt located on Sherman and First, it would obstruct and damage property values to all resi dents on either side of the street from Front to Water streets; it would ob struct, damage and pnss directly over the Portland Lumber mill on the west side and the I nnian-PouIson mills on the east side. The claims for damages would amount to more than the cost of the bridge, besides a long delay caused liv litigation. The only possible approach on the east side would be Il vislon street. making a bridge ever 4.IHII) feet long. Tlx same conditions practically exist with Caruthers street in reference to the damage claims. If the bridge must be on this side of the gulch, why not connect it with the north approach of the steel viaduct at Front and Sheridan with ll.fi feet elevation above the river, where no claims for damages are possible on either side of the riv er, with an eipirilly high approach on the east side, directly connecting with DHIslon street, making a bridge, Includlnc approaches on both east nnd west sides :t,iinn feet long, 40n feet, shorter than 'the Sherman street, he sides saving damage claims of $1,000, OOd or more. However, the site havlne the best claims from all sides Is Meade street, having- an elevation of 131 feet on the west side arnl 144 feet on the east. Total length of bridge 3.300 over all. TOO feet shorter than tbe much boasted site of Sherman street. Now I all on nil southsiders. east and west, let us get together, cut out your big I s, stop your accusations and realize that com mercialism is self iiihness. The differ ence of honesty d.-pends upon bow much we are willing to acknowledge. The south side bridge Is a necessity and should In- left to the experts in such mntters and tbe people. We will need manv more hrhlgcs ere many years, and In 25 years Portland is destined to be come the metropolis of the coast; In fi1 years the London of Anxalea. tiehold. it Is .America's galewny tu the Pacific, the inlet and outlet to the world. In CD vears the oriental people w- become ocldentallred and we orientalized. The greatest portion of 'the world's people are then at Columbia s gate. Let us get together Veep up with the conditions that be nnd become masters of things yet to come A south side high bridge locate, at the most avail able point, let the people rule. Wild. 1AM O RAItACH. For a simple home dinner individual salads served In the neat brown cis serolos ure pretty and give n bit of color to the table. Kgg and lettuce, or tomato and lettuce, with the brown makes a nice bit of color and coolness. A little novelty lor the after dinner coffee that is liked is to serve pink ar. I white rock cuiidv Instead of cube sugar. An additional udvantage is that i smaller amount of sweetening may be had than even the half cube, for those who wish very little sweetening, nnd the Ink and white crystals in a clear bowl are decorative. Dainty salada are In order at both luncheon and dinner and give the ih sired opportunity to have the table graced with a dish which Is both pretty to look at nnd good to eat. The con trasting white and yellow of coin, hard- boiled eggs, the clear red of tomatoes on lettuce, the garnishing of pimentos, of olives, or verv thin Nttiiis of string beans with the white or yellow mayon naise, nil contribute to prcttv and wholesome dishes A new way of serving potato with tomatoes, peas, or other vegetable is to pare the large potatoes and cut from them sections which mav he hollowed ut to form mere tings. Pay these side bv side in the baking il.sh and bake. filling the centers with butteie 1 an egg dropped In Just as thev ar. oughly cooked. cooked tomato other dainty morsels of lood. are pretty at luncheon p.-: tin Tin or se There Is no end to tbe tasteful com binations for sandwiches.

As long as the warm weather lasts lemonade will be desired In plenty and it is one of the most valuable of bever ages, supplying the cooling add that the system craves In its most wholesome form.' Not every mother knows how much the dinner or party lemonade gains bv the addition of a small .pian tltv of "grape juice, which addsln dell clous flavor and Is nourishing.
