Habit is very easily formed and to
illustrate how persistent 1t is when
once acquired a little incident occurred
recently that is worth repeating Ed
c. Giltner well known in Salem, was
private secretary for mis- uncle Hon.
Geo. w. Mcbride for many years and
always signed that gentleman's name
TO letters and other documents. At
the present time Mr.. Giltner is secre-
tary OF the Lewis and Clark commits
sion and the other day wrote a letter
TO a Salem man, on some business
connected with the big Portland fair.
The letter bore the signature Of Geo.
w Mcbride" and the recipient was
astonished to think that the ex-sen-
ator was acting on the fair board. Az.
ter advancing divers reasons ne hap
pened TO think that Mr. Giltner had
made a slip Of the pen and was sew.

doubtless think that a joke has been
perpetrated but the letter Is In evil

AS TO PEARL HARBOR.

An evening paper asks why IL Is thaI
the interests of Pearl Harbor are not
pressed by the Naval Board of strate-
gy and suggests that the present
authorities may not agree with their
predecessors as to the value of naval
station here.
Service periodicals have already
shown what the matter is. The Navy
wants to fortify three stations in the
order named, subig bay, Guantanamo
and Pearl Harbor. one to secure the
Philippines, another to command the
West Indies and the canal the third
for the outer defence of the Pacific
coast of the United States A division
of the fund available would not bring
results to any one place for many
years; so the program is to finish ap-
propriating for Subig bay first, then
Guantanamo and finally Pearl Harbor-
If Hawaii had any influence in Con-
gress it might, perhaps, secure larger
appropriations, out of which Pearl
Harbor could get something.

Designs

The style of work, Familiarity
