Unique Use to be Made Of New Steam,
Or Telephone.
\ report is being circulated that the
steamer Telephone will soon go in COM
mission between Portland and Cascade
Locks. 1t is said her owners are con-
tempiating the Inauguration of a
unique system in connection with her
OF Grafton. A new idea FOR this section
OF the country win be introduced
According TO those who believe they
are informed as to what the future
movements of the boat will be, she is to
be operated as pleasure craft and the
following plan is said TO have been
evolved. see
Instead Of carrying passengers and
collecting the usual fares no price at
all will be charged. As a substitute for
fares vaudeville entertainment will be
given on board and the passengers win
be asked 10 contribute certain amount
toward its support, A continuous en-
tertainment viii be in progress during
the entire round trip. The steamer VIII
leave Portland at about $ o'clock in the
morning and return early in the after
noon.
This plan is not altogether an expert
ment. as it has been tried successfully
in the east. The greatest travel on
the river boats during the summer
months, steamboat men say. is done
principally by people who,are in search
of diversion of some sort.
The Telephone is still lying at the
foot OF Ash street on the east side OF
the river, where she has been moored
yer since her completion last fall Sne
is owned by the Arrow Navigation
company.

Courts Threatened with Perpetu-
alton of PeabOdyism.

To the voters who have decided
to cast their ballots for Alva Adams,
an important word must be ad-
dressed at this time. "
His election is conceded and that
the majority will be SO overwhelm-
ingly large as to create state
record, is almost certain.
'But if you believe in the election
Of Alva Adams it is equally impor-
tant that you do not leave the
slightest loophole by which your
vote can be made ineffective.
Here is the situation frankly
stated, and it is weTl to meet it
sauarely now, and not by a post
e1Ection eight I'm the courts or in
the Office of the State canyassing
board.
On the 25th day after the election,
the State canvassing board, con-
sisting of the governor, the secre-
tary of state, the auditor of state,
the state treasurer and the attorney
general, meets, to canvass the re-
turns for congressman, regents, sem
ators, representatives, judges, Of
either sureme or district courts.
district attorneys and constitutional
amendments.
What it will assume to be its
duties remains to be seen. But
that Peabody, his assistants and his
master, the monster corporations,
who have no respect for the laws of
the state or the nation, will, if they
see the slightest chance to outwit
the people, 60 outside the pale of
the law to accomplish their purpose,
is problem that must be faced now.
First of all, Peabody under the
new law, will endeavor between the
first Of January and the SECOND
Tuesday of that month, when he
goes out of office, to appoint the
two new judges of the Supreme
Court, provided for by constitu-
tional amendment.
They must be confirmed by a
subservient Senate, and that is why
the people must step in NOW.
A vote for a Republican candi-
date for state senator is a vote for
"Peahodyism" pure and simple.
It means that Peabody will have
the power to name two corporation
judges for the Supreme court and
have them confirmed.
It means more.
1t means that the monster cor
porations will be given grip on
the court of the state that will
nullify every efort.aow being made
or to be made in the future for the
preservation of popular rights.
1t means that in the matter of
franchises judges will still do the
bidding of corporations.
1t means that for the subversion
of law "Peahodyiam" will find it
self perpetuated in the highest
court of the state.
Do you want that?
Then remember that vote for a
Republican State Senator, no matter
how strong man he is personally,
no matter how popular he may be.
is vote to make perpetual exactly

And to wipe out "Peabodyism"
so that it will never again show its
