by two different methods that 1t is
in one case one baby, in the other
case several. If we change the verb,
we may leave the substantive un-
changed, or vice versa. The artificial
language, of course, interdicts such
foul play. Yet, while all this might
be true for some improved variety of
beings, simple psychological expert
ments can prove that it does not hold
our particular brand of soul. One
stimulus does not work easily
enough with us; we need a certain
superhuity of suggestion. Other

read proof: we overlook the mis-
prints because the wrong letter does
not strike US. since a letter by Itself

special effort. Every indiyudal let

In the same way, every grammatical
point must be brought out repeated
ly one hint must help another, and
If two children cry we must say at
least twice in the substantive and in
the verb, that it is not one child.

So quietly that only a few score

Europe and this country have been
aware of II. a revolution is in pro-
gress. Neither anarchy nor socialism,
with all their sound and fury, has
been able to upset all recognized
standards of values and put the mil

Yet the next few months may see
that result accomplished by a sim
pie combination of chemistry and
commerce.
About FIVE years ago an old French
chemist pottering about his labora-
tory in the suburbs of Paris rigged
up a machine through which passed

intense heat. The machines output

SERIOUS CHARGES MADE.

Charges of such a serious nature
we're made al the last session of the
council that no newspaper should
allow them to pass unnoticed.
The charges were made by one
senior alderman, THE SPOKESMAN
OF A FACTION, that has sought con.
troll, and still seeks control of the
city government, and arrogates to
itself the power TO give Offices and
bestow patronage.
II was specifically charged and re-
peatedly stated that Robert Downing
was owned by the Warren Construc.
tion Company. His name was not
used, but Mr.. Downing evidently in
ferred THAT HE WAS THE MAN
REFERRED To, and so did the rest
OF the council.
II was broadly intimated that Fred
steusloff was owned by the General
Contracting Company, which is build
ing the Commercial street concrete
bridge. AND THAT HE FAVORED
T1FN WITH n majority report.
No one distrusts men like Down
ing ard stouslofr in their labors TO
promote public improvements. The
accusations brought against them in
the last council meeting were I'm bad
taste.
This political leader now even dis.
agrees with George Griswold, who
says II Is good job. The late dl
rector says the whole fob is rotten
one. His knowledge Is expert be-
cause he has been an engineer and
surveyor all his life
He stood up IN HIS place and swept
his hand around the council and said
HE COULD NAME THE MEN who
were owned by these contracting
companies, etc, etc. ~v
He charged that the Warren Con.
struction Company gave some own.
ers special rebates. He did not cite
facts. but that was the only conclu-
sion TO be drawn from his assertions
II was broadly stated that THREE
MENiBEHs OF THE OLD COUNCIL
that improved State street were in
with the contractors. and divided
profits with them. These men are
well-known citizens.
He said the Portland city council
was openly bought by the Warren
Construction Company OF course.
