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 .

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.

stead of Bryan, as if tills were some

has never been favorably inclined to

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 government has contracted with
the shipyard companies of several

refused to put the amendment. Mark

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

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

For a simple home dinner individual

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.

of olives, or verv thin Nttiiis of string
