Phone Main 82. CHAMBERLAIN TO BE NOMINEE. THE Telegram of Wednesday has a story concerning Gover nor West, and what he will do after his time is out. The Telegram says "What Oswald West will do when he leaves the governor's office' next Janaury is causing a varied amount of guessing." This is true, but what West will do before his term expires is causing considerable more guess ing, and, besides, some real earnest thought, especially among the many candidates for office. He has expressed his prefer ence for Dr. Smith for the governor's office, but what he will do in the matter, of senator is a debatable question question with some. Not long ago we heard t he governor say, 'I am loyal to Chamberlain, and always have been. There is no misunderstand ing or quarrel between us.' We. see no reason to doubt the gpv ernor's word, and, therefore, believe he will stand solidly for the re-nomiation of Chamberlain. From present indications there will be no contest, so far as the Dembcrats are concerned for the nomination for U. S. senator. This means George E. Chamber lain will, in all probability, be the Democratic nominee. LAW MAY POINT THE WAY. ANSWERING a communication from Portland officials con cerning certain street railway franchises, the Railroad Commission refers the writers thereof to the laws of 1911 concerning public utilities and the power of city councils to regulate them. A desultory examination of the law suggests that, under it, it might be possible for Salem to request the S. P. to build us a new and commodious depot, and possibly to compel the company to erect the same. Salem has borne patiently with the railroad in the matter of a depot, and the time has arrived when patience in the matter of a depot has ceased to be a vir tue, and is becoming almost a crime. Salem's depot is the worst on the line between Portland and Ashland. It is not only the worst, but is just rotten. It is small, illy arranged, dirty and a disgrace to civilization. Salem has aced repeatedly that a decent depot be built here, and it has aslted in vain. Its requests will continue to be ignored until it uses force to get what patience and leniency has so long failed to accomplish. It is possible the law, quoted by the railroad commission may open the way to a solution of the question and force the company to build a depot here that is not a disgrace to the city. The law reads : "Every municipality shall have power "(2) To require of any public utility.by ordinance.or otherwise .such modifications, additions and extensions to its physical equipment, facilities or plant or service within said municipal ity as shall be reasonable and necessary in the interest of the public, and to designate the location and nature of all such addi tions and extensions, the time w ithin which they must be com pleted, and all conditions under which they must be construct ed, subject to review by the commission, as provided in this sec tion. "(3) To provide for a penalty for non-compliance with the provisions of any ordinance or resolution adopted pursuant to the provisions hereof, "(4) The power and authority granted in this section shall exist and be vested in said municipalities anything in this act, to the contrary, notwithstanding." VILLA FIGHTING FOR MEXICO. soldier under command of my ch ief , and I shall obey him, what ever his orders may be." This shows patriotism of a high order, and certainly gives one a different opinion of the man so persistently held out as a red handed murderer. If he will carry out the program he indi cates, the sooner he is victorious, and runs Huerta out the bet ter for Mexico and the world. IT has been conceded for some time that the news from Mexi co has been deliberately garbled, and that "Coal Oil," either English or American, is back of the reports. Villa has been held up as one of the worst kind of monsters, but a recent interview, which is really authentic, puts him in a dif ferent light. He is aman of fierce methods, sometimes cruel, but at heart a patriot, if his statements are to be believed. He says : "Should General Carranza become president ho would receive my support, and I would obey his commands. As proof of my loyalty and as evidence that I have no ambition to become presi dent, I would leave the country if he ordered me to do so., "I have never been in anything but the fullest accord with General Carranza. I never had any personal ambition to reach high office. I am a fighting man only, and I am fighting for the liberation of my country, not to elevate myself. I am only a WAS MOVED ALMOST TO FRENZY. FF. SMITH, in a communication in the Oregon Journal Wed nesday, takes the newspapers to task for using poor Eng lish and evidently feels pretty badly about it. He objects to "split infinitives" and to numerous other, things. He saysti'the writer, a few years ago, almost in frenzy asked a veteran in modern journalism, a man of refinement and liter ary culture why his paper perm itted the atrocity of split infin itives." This shows that Mr. Smith feels deeply the mistreat ment of the English language, and is rather a fanatic as a pur ist. He seems to overlook the fact that the English laguage is a live, not a dead one; and that it is still growing. If it was not it would be a dead language. It is acquiring new words every day, and it is changing forms of expression. It has been the rule that a sentence should not be ended with a preposition. Yet that is getting to be common,, so much so, that it bids fair to become, by usage, correct. If Mr. Smith will go back to the birth time of the English laguage, as it first appeared in swaddjing clothes, with Chaucer as its wet nurse, and compare the language of( those days with that of the present, he will get some idea of the immensity of the distance the language has traveled since that time, and the journey it will make in time' to come. Slang has become good English and thousands of words, once common, have be come obsolete, or with apologies to Mr. Smith, "have been ditched." After all, is it not better to split infinitives ocacsion ally rather than hairs? Salem's Greatest Bargain Giver IS THE BIG CHICAGO STORE.
