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?
