" ENEMIES OF THE NORTHWEST T F all the railroads of Oregon and Vashington can be electri I fied by the use of 100,000 electric horsepower, as the Ore . gonian says, why not construct the Umatilla rapids project and electrify the railroads. hy. should railroads use up the coal supply of the country when free water power is going to waste T Why should the roads devote one-third their energy to hauling coal, mainly for their own use, when a better source of power can be secured right at hand? ' . . The railroads are supposed to le seeking economy in oper ation. Then how could they do better than avail themselves of a source of power under which one electric locomotive will do work it now requires three steam locomotives to perform. What if there should be some expense incidental to the change. "It is not the first cost that counts, it is the follow up." , The proposition of electrifying railroads in regions where hydro electric power may be had is a great national cause. It is a change that must come about because our coal resourcesSe exhaustible. The sooner that change is made the better foH . concerned, including the railroads, the shipper, and the coal consumer. Operate the western railroads by electricity and the public will get relief from the burden of $15 coal. , -. - . There is a need right now for the power that may be de veloped at Umatilla rapids. That power can be utilized any time it is developed and sold at low cost. There is no occasion for anyone to say we must await.the coming of some mythical new industry in prder to provide a market for .the power that may be developed. It is not necessary to wait until Oregon has . 20 millions of people before developing the Columbia ' basin water power. We did not defer irrigation until the population arrived. We reclaimed land, through government money, and the paople came as a natural consequence. The same policy fhould be followed with reference to hydro electric develop ment. If government aid i3 a good thing in the field of irriga tion it is a good thing in the field of power development. Why should we smile when the government finances competition with alfalfa growers and sob at the thought of federal money being used to develop power projects that are too unwieldly for private capital? ' Those, who oppose federal help in developing Columbia ba sin power oppose the only plan whereby that power can be de veloped. They champion a policy of waste that costs the peo ple millions of dollars every year. They are enemies of the northwest . "A SINGULAR AND SUGGESTIVE TRAIN OF EVENTS" '. tHE OLDLHOME TOWNh-. : 4 By Stanley ' nwO.tr CUKT TReADwrLL PUT SOME NB ' I m-HNEITJN HIS SHOP EARLY THIS WEEK . Ififfiwt ' I STEAMER THAT WILl!60000 heart I NOT ROCK i PORTLAND people "werft in the air" recently when W. J. Burns, head of the bureau of investigation, demanded the resignation of W. R. Bryon, head of that bureau in the northwest with headquarters in Portland. Mr. Bryon had been active in'securirg the evidence in the Albers and Woerndle cases and his removal did not set right with those who favored a vigorous check on dsloal(behavior during the war. Accord ingly warm protests were forwarded to Washington. Since then the Washington bfireau of the Portland Telegram quotes Mr. Burns as saying that the removal of Mr. Bryon was no reflection on the latters work and was for reasons of econ om only. But the Washington correspondent learned some thing more. It is that during the period from 1914 to 1917 the Burns detective agency, of which W. J. Burns Nvas the head, did detective work for German steamship and other interests. So offensive was some of that work that protests were made by "powerful interests" in New York against the appointment of Jiurns as chief of the U. S. investigation bureau because of al leged unethical work during the period referred to. The Wash ington correspondent also learned that Mr. Burns, since becom ing head of the U. b. bureau, has been eliminating other Offi cials of the Bryon tye in other cities and that protests are be ing received from those cities as well as from Portland. It is indeed a "singular and suggestive train of events" when a detective Mho served German interests when that country was at war is given authority to thus "economize" by ousting w-cret norvice men who strove faithfully to safeguard this coun try Kgidnst secret foes while our soldiers were on the western front. Hie Telegram correspondent states that Attorney Gen i ral Daugherty has given Mr. Burns a free hand to reorganize the personnel of his bureau. It is about time to a.ck who is running this country, anyway? LONDON.. Sept. 7. (L X. S.1 Th world is promised shortly ships that will not rock in the cradle of the deep and mariners a life on the rolling waves with all the I'roll" out of it. A magical contrivance called the Sperry Gyroscope- has beaten the bil lows. It enables ships to be stabilized, no matter what the weather. According to experts vessels can be maintained within two degrees of th6 vertical tinder all conditions. Thus( It "seems as though the long sought' cur for Rea sickness that has so long eluded ships' doctors will even tually be found in the engine room. American Liner First . Most of the shipping companies ar considering gyroscopes,' but the first liner to be fitted with this new wonder will be the American 18.000-tonner MnrVin. formerly known as the Fried rich der Grosse. The value of stabilizers in war time ls obvious.' America is trying the gy roscope equipment on one of her de stroyers, and the British Admiralty is about to follow suit. The gyroscopic stablizer consists of two rotating wheels, or discs, thirteer, feet in diameter and weighing forty five tons each, which may be placed in the engine room region of a ship and take up comparatively small space. The effect of thequlpmeht is to op pose the 'motion of each successive wave, so that the ship is kept travel Ing evently. LITTLE KOCK, Ark.,V.ept. ".-(I. X. S.) Sixty thousand cold, shiny, clinking dollars forms an equivalent to lost love. Specifically so in the case of lira. n. C Pate, wife of a prominent business man,. who now comes into the I'ulaekl Circuit Court and asks 1600, 000 from Mrs. Martha Waddell South ard, local social favorite. . Mrs. Southard won Mrs. Pate's husf band away from' her, the petition charges, reciting that Mr. Pate forced his wife to remain at E'ayettevtlls while he went away with Mrs. South ard. : . Countering-, the aetionTof his wifa. Pate denies in toto the allegations she makes and asks the court to grant him an absolute divorce on the grounds gt'cruelty.

Al though the post-war movement to the cities has crowdedall of the European capitals and made the housing ques tion acute, Vienna has one-tenth less inhabitants than in 1910, declares the Vienna Neue Frele Presse. "The disheartening fact is. that of the 190,095 inhabitants we have fost, cot less than 130, OOy are children. A city with such statistics is not only very- sick, it is p.ctually in the process of dying." , The bbdy of Frederick V.
