Summary

Description
English: The grand old battleship Oregon, for eighteen years berthed at ease in the Willamette River at Portland, reappears in the news. State officials are informed by the Navy Department that no one of the vastly greater ships now building can be given the name of Oregon unless and until the old battle-wagon has been permanently deprived of that name and given another.
