MODERN APAR INT T PLANNED FOR LONDON (Publisher' Tress leaned Wire.) London, March 12. A group of Amer ican capitalists Is having plans prepared for the erection of a towering pile of flats, in one single edifice, on the sum mit of Richmond hill. The site selected, which has been In the market for some years. Is that of Anraster house, a Georgian mansion of considerable Interest and an old time hunting; box of the Duke of Ancaster, sluated opposite the Star and Garter hotel and adjoining (he park gates. The Crown on enfranchising the es tate from copyhold, stipulated that buildings oyer a certain height should be set back 60 feet from the park, but j outside that distance there Is no height! limit, and the. proposed structure, nearly j 4f0 feet In length of the park frontage, would enjoy unparalleled views both over that domain and the world famed I Richmond hill scenery. ' The general idea Is thatj the archi tecture shall approximate t) and follow the leading features of well known lofty edifices in New York. . mr)u be fitted with appliances for luxury and domes tic economy quite novel t(i this coun try. J There Is nothing of thfcs character at present 1n England. t ELECTORS VILL DECIDE FATE OF y Mi MEASURES Ballots at Next General Elec tion, November 8, Will Be as Heavy as in 1908; U'Ren Has Five Bills. (talent Bureau of Th Journal.) Salem, Or., March 12. At least 1 measures will ha submitted for the con sideration of tho electors at the next general election to be held Tuesday, No vember 8. One has been referred by the people by virtue of the referendum, six are bills and amendments to the constl- ution referred by the legislature, five are amendments to the constitution pro posed by-the Initiative largely through he ministrations of William 8. U'Ren of Oregon City, and the remaining seven are Initiative Mils and amendments pro posed by other organizations or groups of voters. The bill that has been referred by the people was passed by the legislature last winter. It attempted to Increase he salary of a Judge of the circuit court In tha Eighth judicial district. In cluding Baker county, saddling the ad ditional expense upon tha counties In he district. The people objected, and within the statutory period after tha legislature adjourned filed a petition da- mandlng the referendtrtn. ' ' p - ' - Provisions of Amendments. Two of tha amendments referred by the legislature relate to taxation, and they are proposed with 4 view of Im proving the present methods of assess ing certalh kinds of property, such aa franchjsna. Another amendment - pro posed ..by the legislature provides for a redisricting of tha atatt after the thir teenth census and placing representation In tha legislature on a district- basis. like the lower house of congreaa. instead of upon the counties at large, aa at present , Another legislative referendum is an amendment to the constitution with the object of extending tha constitutional limitations ao that. If aver need be, tha state may own and oparata Its own rail roads. Two bills are proposed by the legislature, ona calling for a constitu tional convention and tha last for tha establishment of. a hospital for the In sane In the eaatarn part of the State. Suffrage for Woansn. Among the. Initiative mejumree are some of Importance. 'A bill providing4 for state wide prohibition Is onet An other, which has already been filed, pro- poses to extend suffrage to women who pay taxes. The labor lntereata have In itiated a measure modeled after tha em ployers' liability bill defeated In the legislature last winter, extending the liability of the employer In case of In Jury to the employe. There will be three measures submit ted to the voters calling for the estab-j Ushment and maintenance of three nor mal schools, for which the legislature last winter refused to provide. A bill has been Initiated to create the new county of Nesmith from Lane and Doug las countlea. There Is sentiment In favor of creating some new countlea in eastern Oregon, but it la now believed that these proposals will not be put up to tha people at the next election. The promoters will go before the legislature first, by Mr. U'Ren, through the Direct Power league,- this equals 19 measures to be put on the ballot next fall number exactly equal to that submitted in .1908. None will be as , long on require the study that the cerrupt practices act did two years ago,- nor are any ao confus ing aa the two fish bills proposed two years ago.' .'- . , . '.? ,' The five bills prepared by Mr. "U'Ren provide for the "short ballot" system, of government, or . for one executive In whom 'will be centered alt the adminis trative power and responsibility, mak ing It more difficult lo appeal to the supreme court; to centralise the -county1 government; Xo make a county business manager totally responsible, and to-ex tend and make more effective; the, Ini tiative and referendum reservations.
