| This device impressed me as the fore
runner of many possibilities that will in
evitably be evolved from the principle
used. At present it is owned by the
Western Union, but do not see why, in
the course of time, it should not be mod
flied to fit the needs of individual bust
ness men by increasing speed of COM
munication and reducing clerical work
and expense.
1t is not surprising to me that ancient
peoples worshipped anything that they
didn't understand. If they had had the
marvels of electricity in their experience,
they would surely have built more tenn

| the mysterious diety of many but hidden
powers. It's all very we'll to know that
force exists and to know that it follows
certain laws, but that leaves one far from
comprehending what the force is; and
before that uncertainty, one pauses in
awesome incredulity.
There is no excuse for being lonely
here, because there are many friend y
hands stretched out in welcome and cor
dial invitations. Every state building is
like the home of someone whom you
know. I have no desire to visit them all
in succession, as if they were so many
exhibits; but when L feel like making
calls, drop in upon three or four, sit in
their easy chairs, read their newspapers
and magazines, chat with their hostesses,
and leave feeling that have had the re-
freshment and exhilaration that comes
from meeting old acquaintance. No
body asks where | came from, or cares;
| am a civilized human being and there
fore welcome. I may write my name in
a book by the door if please; but if /
happen to belazy or stubborn, my short
comings are gracously overlooked.
Oregon has rustic building, the porch
being upheld by huge tree trunks. The
main room is filled with booths devoted
to the various sections of the state and
indicating their fields of psoductiveness.
There is great deal of polished Oregon
myrtle in the finish; and an arch of this
wood, strikingly notified, is one of the
conspicuous features. Everywhere there
is evidence of the agricultural richness of
the state, as well as of its various indus
tries. Shiny red apples ornament the
booths, woollen blankets contribute
stripes and patterns of soft color, and
sleek salmon sit around in glass jars.
There is large homeike reception room,
furnished in fir; at one end is big brick
fl fireplace, with the seal of Oregon 10 the
hearth. The other day there was fire,
too of cheerful logs, and whisk broom
at the side gave housewifely touch that

NEW YORK dispatches
~ state that Secretary
Lansing is preparing a posi-

be guaranteed safe conduct.
The demand, boiled down,
according to the vessels
owners, is Islands off the

We feel better already.
This proposition of waiting
until the thing is done and
then entering upon a series
of diplomatic remon-
strances, etc, has bruised
our American pride pretty
considerably. Under the
Bryan masterpiece of treaty
making John Bull might ex-
pectorate in Uncle Sans
