MORE ELECTRIC LINES NEEDED


The electric line that Is building
from Salem TO Portland demon
strates the great value of such en-
serpriscs In the development OF the
country.
Hon. Alex La Toilette, who
bought piece OF land last spring
at $50 an acre on the line OF this
road. has been offered an advance OF
$50 an acre on the same land.

OF fuel wood has advanced CORE

Every acre offered on this fifty
miles OF line will he increased In
value by the construction Of this

Millions OF dollars OF new wealth

new homes will be built as result
of It's construction.
Every such enterprise completed
through the country means an nd-
vance In the wages of labor, means

Similar and even greater results

remember seeing her when she was
very young girl, indeed, and an alto
gether new figure in the hustle and
hurry of the harbor, where she has
held her court for the last twenty
years. In those early days of her
reign there was scarcely a fieck or
a stain on her smooth surface, which
was of one uniform dark bronze hue.
But now the difference in tone is in
deed striking.
One looks in vain, almost, for yes
tige OF the old bronze color. Instead
the draperies, the features of the face,
the head, the torch, the great book,
are enveloped in a singular mantle
Of varying shades of light green, deli
cate white, and subtle dash of yell
low. The whole gives a marvellous
full touch of ze nature" as the French
man put it, as striking as it is unique,
about which the artist and the utiii-
tartan are bound to have endless dis
putes. For the question appears to be,
Is this coat Of many oolors an artistic
existence of the statue. and is the Gov
ernment justified in painting 1t out, as
the papers have announced IT intends
to do?
There is no question as to the neces-
sity Of some Of the contemplated re-
pairs in and around the statue. AS
we landed from the tugboat at the
pier on Bedloe's Island there was
nothing chat suggested care or thought
for the convenience of visitors. A
diiapitated plank walk led up from
the wharf to the terrace Of earth
crowned by the statue and its massive
stone pedestal This terrace IS scaled
by a broken flight of wooden steps,
whose rickety condition might be taken
by the fanciful as emblematic of the
dangers and toll to be encountered in
the national march to liberty, but
which, TO the more prosaic. might
simply mean plain neglect on the part
OF the caretakers of Bedloe's Island.
The summit of the terrace. has been
followed out as a trench for the ac-
commodation OF some half a dozen
cannon. projecting seaward in different
directions from the base of the statue.
There are two trips that can be made
up through tho interior of the statue
one leads to the crown on Miss Lib
efty's brow, the other to the torch in
her right hand. made the trip to the
crown and it was not until my return
to earth that I heard of the possibil-
ities OF the torch as a mode of upward
motion. This torch route is not open to
the general public, and 1 was very glad
on the whole that was thus counted
