MAJOR DIMICK
FAVORS WEST
SIDE LOCATION
FOR THE FREE LOCKS AND CA
NAL AT THE FALLS OF THE
WILLAMETTE.

Mayor Grant Dimick, Of Oregon
City, was in Salem today to s-gue a
case in the circuit court and luclden-
tally stated that he thought the mat
ter OF free locks and canal at the
falls Of the Willamette was practi-
cally settled He says the west side
location will undoubtedly be adopted
as recommended by the state canal
board, and that the price Of $4,000
as agreed upon, while 1t is higher
than he would have given himself,
will be satisfactory and the best sol
ution Of the matter. He says the en-
tire campaign made by the live wires
was based on the expectation Of some
OF the Oregon City business men that
construction OF new locks and canal
on the east side and would have
meant large expenditure Of money
for labor at Oregon City, and would
have been ruinous to the proUcrty Of
the big manufacturing concerns on
that side Of the river He says that

The U. OF o. has won the first
round in the fight against tho filing
of the referendum petitions in the
matter of It's appropriation That the
case will go to the supreme court is
probable. though a perusal Of the
clear, logical and apparently Irrefut-
able conclusions OF law based upon
conceded facts, makes any attempt at
appeal seem but hopeless struggle
against the inevitable, and will at
most, serve but to delay the ultimate

Little Dreadnoughts.
on the Baltimore American.

From the Baltimore American.
Great Britain is already considering the
passing of the dreadnought type of ships.
The big fellows. that maneuyer with diff
flcIlty and cannot make great speed, will
be replaced by little dreadnoughts with
much less displacement, but capable of
carrying as heavy guns and doing as
great damage. The new type will have
speed Of thirtyfour TO thirty-siX knots
an hour-a marvellous Roadway for the
major type of warships.
Whether or not the British admiralty
will be able to perfect its new type re-
mains to be seen, but the indications are
that the country that originated the
dreadnought type, and thereby made OBJ
solete the greater part Of its first-class
battleships. will also be the pioneer for
dreadnoughts remodeled in the direction
of less bulk and greater speed.
The effect would be to oppose Ger
many by the time it carries out It's pro-
gram for upsetting the two-to-one stand
ard of the British navy, with a new type
of ship, so that the German yards would
have to get busy manufacturing in order
to do over again its work Of ofsetting
British paramountcy on the seas. Thus
the play of naval action goes on through
the shipyards as actively as through the
channels of diplomacy
