THE ADVICE oF"THE GRAND OLD
MAN" OF TEXAS.

The presence at San Antonio o
that venerable statesman, Johr
H. Reagan, was of itself an inspi
ration. 1t must be a source of graf
ification to all Texans to learI
| that the old commoner was able
to lend more than his mere pres
ence to the democratic counsel
for he was an active participant il
the proceedings and an able
counselor.
Could it be said that any
thought of personal aggrandize.
ment, the qualification of individ.
ual ambition ever influenced
Judge Reagan, that thought must
now be put aside. Many times
during his long and devoted SER
vice to his party and his country
suggestions have been made rs to
what should be given to Judge
Reagan as the "crowning glory"
of his honorable career. 1t seems
to the News that in none of these
suggestions was any greater or
grander glory contemplated than
that which crowned the "Grand
Old Man" of Texas, when under
such circumstances he stood be-
fore the representatives of Texas
democracy, and, yielding express
sion of his own convictions upon
certain policies, urged democrats
to make concessions and stand
firmly together in defense of the
basic principles of the party and
the free institutions of the gov
eminent.
To the convention Judge Rea-
gan brought not alone the knowl-
edge he had gained from books;
not alone the additional informa-
ton he had gained by tradition.
Out of his abundant experience,
as an active and prominent factor
in State and National politics, for
sixty years, he was able to bring
his lessons of wisdom and the |
truth of history.
Believing that upon the preser-
vation of democratic government
and the rights of the individual
citizen depends the success of the
democratic party; believing that
he party cannot succeed if it in
lists upon certain policies which
n recent years sent it to defeat,
Judge Reagan counseled that con-
sessions should be made. The
of his advice showed
:learly forth when he brought to
rev notable precedent, where
n the party, as time had shown,
wisely made concessions.
Following the Civil war, said
Judge Reagan, the people of the
south were very much misunder-
TODD. 1t was quite commonly be-
ieved in the Northern states that
hey contemplated the overthrow

ey, although he had proven him

that Southern motives

The argument is conclusive. If, t

Salem, oregon, March l. 1904.
To the Honorable Mayor and Common

Salem, Oregon, March l. 1904.
To the Honorable Mayor and Common
Council of the City Of Salem.
Gentlemen The recorder Of your
city served upon the undersigned
company on the Goth day of February,
1904, a copy of a certain report pur.
porting to have been made by your
committee on lights in which II is set
forth thai the services Il is furnish
ing your city under our present light
ing contract, are inadequate in that
the lamps do not average more than
COO candle power, and that the lights
are not suspended the requisite mum.
Der of feet above the street grade;
also that the globes are not such as
in the contract provided.
In referring to the above report we
beg to state that said committee is
misinformed as to the service that
it Is rendering your city
lst. The lights that are now being
used by It for the purpose Of street
lighting are full 1900 candle power.
Regarding the height OF the lamps
will state that the present poles upon
which these lights are suspended will
not permit the lamp to hang thirty
to thirty-fve feet from the ground as
per contract but If the wires suspend
ing these lamps are all made tight
the lamps will hang at a distance
ranging from twenty-eight TO thirty
three feet from the ground, and would
give, in my Judgment, as good or bet
ter light than If suspended higher as
as the regulation height for street
lighting is TWENTY-FIVE feet from the
ground.
We are at present tightening all
suspension wires, placing guys on
these poles. and making the conditions
in general of the lighting system, in
hrs- class condition. and that said
lamps are on the said poles and at
the same height that they have been
during the life of this contract.
AS TO the globes we will state that
there are some OF the street lamps
at the present time without globes,
which We do not think makes any ma
terial difference in the lighting power
OF the lamp.
1t is the purpose Of the company TO
install an entire new lighting plant
in this city at once, which win neces-
state a complete change OF every
street light in this city, and with the
Permission Of your honorable body We
desire 10 install In lieu OF the present

improved type or arc lights, and are
universally used for street lighting
The construction of the lamp is such
that the climatic conditions have no
effect upon the service and candle
power of the lamp. The lights have
two globes. an inner globe to protect
the arc and carbon. The outer globe
of clear glass is a protection for the
inner globe.
These lamps are known as the 100
hour lamp, and the Illuminating power
of the lamp is superior to the old
lamps now being used, in this: 1st

constructed that it is impossible for

These lamps are now in the Office OF
the company. and can be inspected by
any member of the council when de.

At the present time we have no
lights of the kind now in use in stock

pence of purchasing and installing any
further lights of the same kind for the
reason that we expect 10 be able with.
in one month from this date to install
the new system of lighting herein
mentioned.
This company has purchased ma
chinery and new equipment at cost
of $25,0OO0O, not including the ex-
pense that will naturally be incurred
by the installation Of the new ma
chinery. About one-half of this ma
chinery has arrived and is now being
installed in our present power house,
had notice of shipment Of the balance
on ths 9Th Of last month which we
are expecting at any time This ma
chinery when installed will displacs
all old electric machinery OF our pres.
ent equipment leaving only steam en-.
gines and boilers, the boilers to be
reinforced and additional power added
aud this machinery refined for emer.
gency cases.
This will give us one Of the most
modern and complete lighting plants
on the Pacific Coast. and win thus en-
able MS TO guarantee our patrons both
public and private, a thoroughly re-
liable and economical service.
This machinery was contracted for
and purchased July IL, 1903, but ow-
ing TO the demand on the manufacture
ers Of electric machinery we at that
time were compelled TO sign the con
tract on six months delivery, and to-
day We cannot purchase electric ma
chinery under eight months delivery.
The delay In improving the car

in receiving this machinery as 1t
would not be practical TO rebuild
our car-lines and cars and make all
improvements required 70 give first

St. Petersburg, Dec. 1e--The Empe TOTS fete day passed without any out ward demonstrations in St. Petersburg. but was marked by continuation of the Moscow disorders though they were not so serious as on Sunday.
 The features of the Moscow demon- stration was the distribution of a violent proclamation of the social democratic labor party declaring the whole country as being in state of mourning and tears for the sacrifice of life in the Far East, for the aggran- dizement of the Romanoffs. picturing the government as driving the people to starvation and calling upon work ingmen to enter ceaselessly upon a war for overthrowing the tyrants.
 Other demonstrations are reported from various localities. In conse- quence of the character of the current agitation the advisers of Emperor Nicholas have dissuaded him from his contemplated trip to the south of Rus sia to bid farewell to troops being dispatched to the Far East.
