TortlanoV. Oct. 38,. To. the Edi
tor of. The Journal-In your Issue uf
Tuesday evening there appear an Inter
v view from Captain W. H. Patterson, who
is described' as a man who has been for
30 years a Columbia river pilot The
broad statements e sees fit to malfe
upon ' a ; number - of -collateral point,
: about wlhch it is apparent he knows
nothing,, lead .to the suspicion that he
knows little or nothing about the main
subject which he undertakes to discuss.
.The dally-mechanical routine of fol
lowing a river channel "for 30, or even
CO ; years, along . routes laid out ana
. charted by government -engineers, does
-not necessarily make one aa expert on
dock , construction,' or an oracle capable
of teaching us what are all the needs
of the harbor of a great city like Port
' land .' One .great trouble - that is alt
ways met in discussing great project
affecting the welfare and the destiny
of the port is the constant Injection of
loose generalities ' that serve . only to
. confuse. the issue, and of dogmatlo ex
pressions of opinion on the part of tbos"
who rate their judgment as superior
tlist of all of the rest of mankind.
Legitimate criticism should always
be welcomed, but the airy- method so
. often adopted ' of brushing . aside the
v opinions of men who have made tbeee
- questions a specialty; and 'given' them
long, careful and Intelligent attention,
does not add anythlnsv.te the sum to
tal of human knowledge, and certainly
doe not make life any more attractive
to the public servant who is rendering
gratuitous services .
Engineers Approve." 1 '
- Engineers of the hlgaest standing and
men of affairs whose activities cover
a wide range, have upon mature dellber-
atlon, given . their - cordial approval ti
- the proposed acquisition, for dock, pur-
posea of Mock's Bottom. Swan island
and' the Bridgeport tract. There ar
' ' objections to the project, as there are to

It Is, however, the universal expert-
ence ot mankind . that, as a rulivth
' most dogmatic objector to- any project
is the man-, who knows' the: least about

but a real estate scheme to get Swan
