Governor 0ICott May
Serve Unexpired Term

Ben w. Olcott is governor in fact. de
holds his office as governor for the un'
expired term Of the late Governor
Withycombe. He can resign his dual
office of secretary of state, at the same
time retaining the office of governor
to which he assembled upon the death OF
Governor Withycombe.
This, in brief, is the gist of the opin-
ion of Attorney General Brown, handed
down late Saturday.
After an exhaustive examination OF
the law and the decisions of the courts
Attorney General Brown takes this po-
sition and advises that an early judicial
decision of the question be sought and
secured because of the importance of
the questions involved and Of the public
policy demanding that there be three
men upon the board. of control, if it is
possible to bring this about. He bases
his opinion upon the law as set out in
the case of Earhartvs. Chadwick, decid-
cd by the supreme court Of this state,
and considered and distinguished in 9th
or leading cases in point from other
states.
In summing up his findings, Attorney
General Brown says:
"I conclude as | began: That you
are the governor; that you are also sec
retary Of state; that these are two dis
tinct and separate offices; that YOU
have the right to Tesign the office Of
secretary of state, and as governor, ap
point your successor as secretary Of
state.
"By reason of the Importance of YOU
office I think it advisable to have {
judicial determination of the questions
you have submitted to me for opinion
I am going to suggest that the stat,
treasurer refuse to pay your salary o
governor. You can then institute pro
ceding in mandamus IN the supreme
court as court of original jurisdiction
This will bring before the court rea
and not fictitious case. Our highes
court can then either affirm or dis
affirm the doctrine enuneiated by ou
court in Chadwick vs. Sarhart supra.
"0ur supreme court recognizes tn
: fact that it is maintained by the pee
, pie for the welfare of the people an
no doubt would be willing to pass upo
any legitimate question that would b
raised and which involved the admins
tration of the laws bv its chief exeel
tive. The Oregon supreme court is
progressive court and is always ready
: serve the public by administering tn
law within the limits Of establishe
law"

Concrete "PiIes."

The piles used for wharf inside
the new pier at Burnie, Tasmania, are
concrete tubes or pipes 10 feet long
and AZ feet in diameter, the wall be-
ing one foot thick. The pipes are
produced in a steel cylinder, which is
placed on four wheels, and rotated by
an electric motor at the rate of 25O
to 300 revolutions per minute. AS the
concrete mixture is thrown in, the
centrifugal force throws out the wa
ter, each length of pipe being COM
pleted in about fifteen minutes. To
get the required height, these sections
are placed one upon another, with ce-
ment between, and an eight-inch steel
band is placed over the joint. The
hollow center is filled with sand.

by many who feared that the disfigur-
ing and mercenary hands of the cafe
proprietors. the souvenir sellers, the
restaurants and the hotel keepers
would obliterate historic spots in their
efforts to provide attractions for the
coming throngs of tourists. Among the
places already decided upon are the
forts at Verdun, the trenches of Sois-
sons, the underground maZes of MOu-
quet farm, the ruins of Bapaume, and
the mangled remains of PoZieres.

LEFT TO THE IMAGINATION
Thackeray's Question as to "NeVer
Was" Speech Would Seem an
Easy One to Answer.

The two great English novelists,
Thackeray and Dickens, although
there was at one time a GOODNESS be-
tween them, were generous admirers
of each others genius. They left odl-
Gus comparisons to foolish and petty
partisans of whom there were plenty
in the following of each. But Thack-
cray, according an anecdOte recent
ly related, once admitted to his Amerl-
can friend, the eloquent Congressman
Lamar, little touch of pique concern
ing the public estimation of his own
ability and that of Dickens in minor
art. The two were driving together to
a banquet of TIE Literary fund, at
which Dickens, who was an admirable
after-dinner orator, was 20 preside.
Lamar" said Thackeray, "they say
I can't speak. But if want to, l can
speak every bit as well as Dickens,
and I'm going to show you tonight
that | can speak almost as well as you
CAM"
But when the moment arrived in the
course Of the proceedings at which to
make good his assertion, it came, and
passed; and Thackcray uttered never
a word. When the banquet was over
and the friends were returning, both
silent, in their cab, Thackeray turned
suddenly to his companion.

think you have heard tonight the
greatest speech that ever was never
