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.
