Let l. BE Honest About 1t.

1t i claimed by the prgo"iuR and
some other Of the big newspapers
which deem themselves strong enough
t. express au opinion upon Roose-
Welt $ candidacy.
That it j.. breach + his pl GIFTED
word: Vlo alton Of the anti-thlrd-term
tradition: q move to MeXlcanize the
United States; an act Of treachery to his
friend TAFT. and the elimination Of II
long Matching conspiracy
Fairness impels US to place pin
right here, no matter what may be
the writer's opinion of Mr.. Roose-
welt as man or politician.
10 President was ever nominated
or foisted into the Presidency more
palpably By the then existing Ad-
minstration, than William II. Taft.
No President ever entered upon his
official duties under fairer auspices
nor with more earnest wishes for
success from his predecessor, and it
was but natural to expect that the
leading strings he had provided would
indicate the line of policy he had so
carefully prepared. Before Mr.. Taft
took the chai~ Of state, it was noted
that he was becoming cheek by
iowl with Senator Aldrich and Speak
er Cannon, men who had been ring
leaders of the opposition to Roose-
veltian policies and Taft's nomina'
ton.
1t was either magnanimity on the
part of Mr.. Roosevelt or dread OF
conflict with his founding that i'm
PEELED Mr.. Roosevelt to immune him
self in Darker Africa, though it be
at the risk of an abandonment OF the
men and measures that had made the
election possible.
Since Mr.. Roosevelt's return he
has noted the steady object to be
removal of the landmarks which
had been the work of many years of
diligent labor, and was it to be ex-
pected that a man of his determine
ton and resolution would by silence
and inaction approve of such i'm
portant changes of policy?
It is hardly believed that Mr..
Roosevelt can expect any further ap-
probation of the honor of being at
the head of the government. and we
are willing to concede belief in the
sincerity of a claim that his appar-
ent qualification of "a promise not to
accept q nomination is more a mat
ter of duty than of inclination; that
his reversion of sentiment is due en-
tirely to changed circumstances and
is justified by them.
1t is hardly thought that the
STANDARD, for this reason, or any
other, could be induced to support
Mr.. Roosevelt at the polls, bat we
cannot close our eyes to the thought
that there are others who have
sought time and again, q revision of
popular judgment, without having
had an opportunity for submitting
policies that have apparently been
approved by the general public.

may desire to contest local assess

A GLANCE PR0sPECTIvE.-A cor.
respondentin writing the STANDARD
suggests, we think, q very sensible
and altogether feasible and profit
able enterprise of erecting a first
class tourists hotel in Olympia. 1t
would. of course, require consider
able capital to secure good location,
one that will command our fino har-
Dor prospect and be convenient to
both land and water Communication.
The project is already undergoing
consideration for one or two tour
list hotels on Puget Sound, and soon
it may be too late for our advant-
ages to receive the recognition they
deserve, to be ready for the grand

world to the new mediterranean, the

that Taft's name will not be taken

is unnecessary to state that Stubs

more than likely that a wish is

Is Hamburg a Model for Portland !?

The Oregonian seems to find some
comfort in the fact that Hamburg,
Germany, founded several hundred
years ago on the banks of the Elbe.
about Is miles from the German
Ocean, has been able TO maintain an
existence all that time, though not on
the ocean front. It seems to see in
that a strong hope for Portland's
continued prosperity. But then cir
cumstances have been somewhat diff
ferent. But it was not till the
Thirteenth century, when history
tells us, its commercial history be-
gan, that Emperor friedrich grant
ed it the free navigation of the river
from the city to the sea, with priv
ilege of levying toll on foreign ship
ping. What this amounted to, we have
no means of knowing, for in q couple
of centuries it is related its commerce
declined, owing to its frequent dis
putes with Denmark. and it was only
when. in 1915. Hamburg joined the
German Confederation enjoyed a re-
turn of its former prosperity. which
in 1866 was noted to have declined
with loss of its independent posi-
ton, and had suffered abolition of the
German flag on board merchant ships.
It is hardly probable that Portland
will have any OF these aids to tide
it over the lean years" that in.
evitably turn up.

represented-fif of whom are
women-practically none comes under
the more severe condemnation of the
French cities. OF the South Ameri-
cans, of whom there are perhaps half
that number, several partake a little
of the extremely radical variety. But
even their products do not justify the
inclusion of the western hemisphere
in the region denoted by the critics as
of "the outer darkness of barbarism. .
Out of the more than six hundred
and ninety artists exhibiting perhaps
thirty fall within the terms of the CEN
sorship. The fact remains, however,
that public curiosity at the works of
the thirty has drawn more patronage
than any legitimate interest in the
creations of the remaining six hun
bred and sixty.

ually large number of works by the

three leading modern radical camps
post impressionists, cubists. and flu
turists-has made the event even
more exciting than 1t was last year.
AS a matter of fact only small pro-
portion of the works of painting or
sculpture exposed are by men belong
ing to those schools. although their
eccentric canvases and statues get the
mons share of attention from visitors.
The best critics of the old school,
writing in such newspapers as lie
Temps or lie Figaro" attribute
new reason for the madness" of the
three schools. 1t is that the men who
are painting those queer works in
Paris now are not F'renchmen, blessed
with the excellence of a strict academ-
&c education, locally derived, but bar
barlans from the great outer darkness
OF Poland, Little Russia, Bohemia,
Hungary, Norway, Finland, Siberia,
and so on. Their too sudden INNER
sion into the artistic atmosphere of
Paris gives them an inordinate desire
to express themselves suddenly in
some shape or other, and because they
nave not the training adequate for ex-
preston through the old recognized
mediums they tackle the problem In
new way, interesting only for its
oddity, and get an entirely incoherent
and inarticulate result. On their side,
however, the radicals reply by point
ing to the distinguished master, Henri
Matisse, who has been hailed as the
head and front of all their manifesto
tons, as well as to the radical tradi-
ZION In painting which ran down
through the late years of the nine
feenth century in France and which
boosted as it's champions men now
recognized as the most notable Gre
ators of their period. Only a few
years ago, say the radicals, Japanese
prints looked just as queer as cubist
works do now.
1t is difficult to describe how the
Few works look, unless it suffice to
say that whereas the post-impression-
lists paint figures and landscapes with |
characters which remind one of the |
drawings in a textbook of plane ge-
ometry, and the futurists the sort of |
angular smashed-up medley which one
discovers at the end of Kaleidoscope
tube, realist details being imaginable,
If not actually discoverable, in the
general haze and collision of colors
and forms.
OF the special features attached to
the Salon-among which is an exhibit
ton of number of well-known nine
teenth century portraits-by far the
most interesting is a display of rooms,
suites and little houses decorated
after some of the general principles
expressed by the most extreme Of the
modern painters whose works are to
be seen in the main section of the
show. The application consists, for
the most part, in angular furniture
and wall papers with every possible
of color on them.

painters fighting among themselves,

Unlike the Spring Salon, the autumn
