Therefore, tho leclaUtlv aaaembly In the aeuloti of 1913, (Chapter 10 U 1U, pciRe 21) in order to cryaUllie the aentlmpnt cf the people and for ever relieve ubqucnt aaaemblle nf the vexation and embarrcrament of dealing with purely local county dlvla ion qucatlona, enacted a law providing a method by which county division and annexation ahould Uk plac. Tbla bill bud th benefit of careful study and debate, and it la a fair bill and boa already boen ued for the for mation of two new countlea. Itut the 13 apuare miles of Oseg Tualatin annexationist and the group of seceeder In the Ectacada district are each unwilling to use this law and under tho theory that the cons'J tutioual right of tho legislature (3oc tion C, Article XV Constitution of Ore gon, and construction of same in DaluT county vs tenson. 40 of Ore. 122) has not been amended to deprive the lesls Icture itself of the concurrent power to Changs county line, now seek to involve and embarrass the legislature assembly, already sufficiently en grossed with ohcr thins. In a purely local fight. These boosters dare not submit their questions directly to the people Interested. Their appearance at the legislature Is a presumption and the most brazen attack upon the Oregon system yet attempted. If Cascade county cannot get sixty-five per cent of the electors in the proposed new county and thirty-five per cent of those In tho remnant of the parent county, to agree to secession, they ought to fail And if a majority of the electors in both Clackamas and Mult nomah counties do not desire the an nexation of the Oswego-Tualatin 13 squares miles, they ought to fall. The assembly may still have the constitutional power to involve Itself in this discussion, but it has also the right, if not the moral obligation, to send these boosters back to the law enacted in anticipation of Just this situation. STERILIZATION IS RIGHT- A bill providing for the sterilization of sexual perverts and feeble-minded has been Introduced In the leg islature by Senator Farrel. The measure is different from other steril ization bills which have been drawn in recent years, and is aimed to pro tect every right of the individual, by providing for an examining board of three competent physicians and a pro cess of appeal to the circuit court- Feeble-mlndedncss is Incurable and hereditary, and It is known that feeble minded persons are incapable of con troling the reproductlng instinct in proportion to the degree of thair feeble mindedness. These facts, proved by science and accepted as facts even by opponents of the bill, establish the need for such a law. Under the bill, any person who has been adjudged by due process of law a THE FARMER IS CONCERNED. Prom the standpoint of the Clacka mas county farmer tb bill introduced by Senator Barrett In the legislature is of the utmost Importance. The measure. If enacted, would designate two certain road aa state highway on which tho bulk of the state road money would be spent. One road would lead from Portland up the Co lumbia and down through the eastern part or the state to the Idaho line, and the other from Portland south to the California state line. This latter road. however, would Ignore the route of the Pad He highway, pass up Clackamas j county entirely, and go through Wash ington and Yamhill counties. The state highway commission is at present preparing to co-operate with the federal government and the coun ty In th improvement of the Oregon City-New Era road, a highway that would mean Just as much to the far mers of Clackamas county as to the automobile tourist who come through tho county by the hundred every sum mer. With Carrett'a bill enacted, this state co-operation with county author ities in improving would stop, and the county would have to contribute to the state fund for the improvement of roads in other counties, for improve ments which would take business and truffle nway from this county. The main north-and-south road through Clackr.mas county Is one of the principal farmers' roads in the county. It connects the northern and southern parts of tho county with Ore gon City, and connects the entire coun ty with the state's largest market, Portland. Barrett's bill is a selfish one, and It deserves defeat The people of Clack amas county should be able to count on the Clackamas delegation at Salem to fight it to a finish. A NEGRO KNITTING MILL. Booker T. Washington would havo taken great satisfaction in a news Item from Jacksonville. Fla., telling of the success of a certain knitting mill. That mill was started a few years ago as a negro enterprise. All the capital In it which wasn't a great deal was Invested by negroes. All of the employees were negroes. It was an experiment along the lines of the Tuskeegee educator's constant ad vice to his race to save their money, to cultivate all the thrift virtues and make themselves economically inde pendent of the whites- That plant Is now being greatly en larged. New, modern machinery is being installed. It has been making money, and 1b expected to make still more when tha new equipment makes posible the enlargement of its output. Employment will be offered to a much larger number of negroes, making them skilled workmen and adding to their own prosperity. It is by such enterprises that the sex pervert or a feeble-minded person who Bhall have been committed for negro lifts himself up by bis own boot- Have You Ever Needed a Reference?

THE EXTENT OF PUBLIC SCHOOL EDUCATION IN 111. few ar atl to rvallie th ritenl and th coat of th public hoola In lliuat'-a of tb fulled tilatra bureau ration of the department of tb Interior bis gathered future a allowing the scop of public education. Tber were JJ.jOO.OiX) prons at lending a. hoola of some kind In U10 I nlled rUate In 1916. according to es timate of tho I'nlted titale llureaii of education. "Tbis means. " declare (he annual report of th commlaalooer of ej neat Ion "that approximately H per rent of th Inhabitant of the I'nlted Siali ar attendlug school, a compared with I) percent In Croat ttrluln, 17 per cent In France, 20 per rent In Germany, and a Utile over four per cent In Kusala. The bureau point out. however, that the result I much lea favorable to the I'nlted States If dally attendance, rather than enroll ment, 1 taken a the baala for com paiiaon. sine om of the other na tion hav better attendance and a longer school term than the I'nlteJ State. The number of pupil In public kin dergarten and elementary acboola ro from 16.900.000 In 1910 to 17.951,000 In I9M. an lnrrraae of more than a mil Hon In four years. In the same period the cumber of public high school otu dents Increased from 915.000 to 1.219. 000; and for 1915 the corresponding flKUpre was 1.3:9.000. As the result of thl Increase of 110,000 In public high school atudent the total number of students In Ihe 14.000 high school of the kind Increased to a million and a half. Of the 11.617 public high schools reported. 8.4 40 had full four- year course. Approximately 93 per cent of all public high school students are in four-year high school. The report analyses the number of teachers In the I'nlted States, showing that of the 706,000 teachers. 169.000 were men and 637,000 women- The number of men teachers has Increased very slightly since 1900; the number of women teachers has almost doubled. In public elomentary schools the num ber of men teachers bas decreased 20 per cent since 1900, while the number of women teachers has Increased 8 per cent In 1900 teaching positions in public high schools were evenly di vided between men and women. .t the present time women outnumber the men by 8,000. The average an nual salary of all teachers is S525. The figure is highest in the east and north Atlantic states, with $699 and 1636, respectively, and lowest in the south Atlantic states ($329). It varies from $234 in Mississippi to $S71 in California, and $9-4 1 In New York. Expenditures for education In 1911, partly estimated, totaled close to $S00. 000,000. An estimate, making due allowance for the intervening two years and for Items necessarily omit ted, would easily bring the nation's current educational expenditure to a billion dollars. Public elementary schools cost In 1915 approximately MO, 000, 000; public high schools, $70, 000,000; private elementary schools, $52,000,000; private secondary schools, $15,000,000; universities, colleges, and profeslsonal schools. $100,000,000; nor mal schools, $15,000,000. Ihe only one In the roiinly. A plac oa th school board, at lis best. Is a lhankleaa Jell. There li nc pay, and little honor. Nevertheless, good man, Intereated in th welfare nf lh public schools, ar uaually found who ar willing to git tlielr Urn and energy to the dlatrleL t'nder th law at prvaent. one director I elected each year and lb majority of Ihe member of th board are al iperienced In school admlnlalratlon. With th longer term, a director ba time 10 study lh condition of lh school and th varloua pruhlema of education In th dlatrlct, and tha diatrlct gel tha Bdvantag of his knowlcd. Th ahorter term Inaure more change ,n lh nu iitberahlp of the board. It mean that men Juat when they ar learnlu something of their duties probably will b forced to give up hi seat to some Inexperienced eranii. In fact, under the l-aiirguard bill It would be poaalbl to have a board nf of Inexperienced men. In cam of the realgtmtlon or death of one or two of th member. A capable man, with bualnea duties prraalng him for time, would healUte to enter th rac for school director If he must run for reelection every three years. The bill deserves defeat. It Is change from the present law, which baa been found entirely satisfactory BILL TO CREATE CASCADE DUPLICATIONS HAVE GOT TO GO. The people of Los Angeles will be handed a very nice New Year's present in consolidation of their two telephone systems. In all western states tendency Is to reduce overhead by consolidating util ities under one management and re ducing expenses. At same time pcoplo are given bet ter service and all forms of destruc tive competition are being done away with. In some cities public ownership of an utility is proposed that is to enter Into destructive competition with pri vate utilities. It must appear to the most artifi cial political economist that anything in nature of a public service must be paid for. Duplication in name of public owner ship is less Justifiable than by private capital because it must be done with public funds. With complete power of regulation in hands of state and power to fix values, duplication is waste. In some cities politicians still want power to hold up utility management instead of proceeding according to law to acquire them. In San Francisco a bitter fight is made to destroy the Spring Valley Water Co. property by building an ex pensive city plant. In Washington, city governments de mand local control of public utilities to get special rates that must be made up In the country. But all these propositions will break down because taxation and Industries demand progress along lines of least resistance and all forms of duplication in public service must go. Pacific Coast Manufacturer. MOTOR TRUCK ROADS. Th motor truck road ha arrived The first one on record I being con slmcled by Loa Angeles county, Cul. It Is thirteen miles long, and runs from the city of Los Angeles to the harbor at San Pedro. It's a 40 foot width of waterproof maradam, rov. ered vith right Inches of solid con crete, ana an elastic bituminous "car pet- over the whole. Thl roadbed I more durablo thun thoae built merely for pleasure vehi cles or light motor trucks. In construc tion and purpose It Is a sort of coin prlmlse between the ordinary high way and the railroad. It provides the kind of road needed for the hoavlcit sort of hauling, and by segregating the slow, ponderous truck traffic it bene fit the lighter truffle on the other roads. The Innovation la sure to be widely followed In time, wherever conditions are similar. Tbere may be truck roads established in all populous communi ties. Then we may see steady streams of great gas-driven trucks haullnc freight along the established routes, relieving the pressure of traffic on common highways and supplementing the work of the railroads. It will be valuable addition to our present transportation systems. PROTECTING SOUTHERN VOTERS The corrupt practices bill It again Defore the senate even more drastic In Its provisions than before It was recommitted to the committee for ex tensive revision. Much space Is given to an exact definition of tho various terma used In the bill For instance. person" is defined as a ' private per son, firm, association, corporation, or committee" Anothv section In the bill provides that no "person" shall make any disbursement of more than $50 for the purpose of Influencing an election. That provision, if enacted into law, might put out of business several news bureaus, located in Wash ington and elsewhere, which dissemin ate news favorable to one political party or the other, but which are not, In the ordinary sense, political com mittees or associations. The bIM, be ing fathered by a Democrat from Okla homa, where they boast that sixty per cent of the negroes are preventod from voting of course contains no provis ion for the proper enforcement of the Fourteenth amendment to the constitu tion, the disregard of which In the southern states is the most glaring fraud now being practiced in Ameri can politics.

Ore- FARMERS' HOUR8 OF LABOR. Hon. Charles F. Reavis, of Nebraska, attributes the present prosperity of the farmers ttf the west quite as much to their close attention to work, and long hours, as to the war ocndltlons that have created an abnormal ' de mand for the products of agriculture. To illustrate his point he tells the story of a young easternor who went west to assist In the harvest. The farmer knocked at his door to arouso him in the morning. The young man sleepily asked, "What do you want?" The farmer replied, "I want you to get up. We must harvest the oats " Tho question came, "What time Is it?" "It Is three o'clock." The young man sat up In alarm and cried "Great God, are they wild; do we have to sneak up on them?" Mr. Reavis claims that if the farmer tried to accomplish his duties in the workday commonly followed by mem bers of congress it would be but A short time beforo bankruptcy would overtake him. PROHIBITION FOR HAWAII. Apprehending that action may be delayed on the pending bill providing prohibition for the Territory of Haw all, Prince J. Kuhlo Kalanlanaole, del egate In CongTesg from thooe Islands, has introduced a bill granting to the Legislature of Hawaii power to pro hibit the Importation, manufacture and sale of intoxicating liquors In the Ter rltory. Furthermore provision Is made for a prohibition referendum. Delegate Kalanlanaole believes that a vote in the islands would indicate an overwhelming sentiment In favor of abolishing the liquor traffic, and would stimulate congresional action on "dry" bills similar to the one on which hear ings hav been held recently in the Senate. SALEM. Or.. Jan. 23. All prospects for early or effective cooperation be tween the house and senate commit tees on consolidation went gllmmorlng today when the house committee de termined to pursue an Independent course toward the senate program. Senator Dlmlck and Representative llrownell, chairman of the commute" that will not harmonize, are both from Clackamas county. In accordance with that plan the hnitan emnmlrte tina urnnnre,! a bill creating a state commission of labor! .. . and consolidating with It the, present commissioner of labor, tho board of Inspection of child tnbor, tho Industrial Welfare commission and the Industrial Accident commission. This bill probably will be Introduced In tho house within a fow days ami earnest efforts will be mado to pass IL Other bills consolidating other state departments are In tho making. Tho hotiso committee met this af ternoon mid expressed violent disfavor of the Dlmlck bill, consolidating the Stute Tax commission with tho Public Service commission, which passed tho Benate with nn almost ununlmoiis vote yesterday. Representative Thomas' bill trans ferring tho duties of the tax commis sion to the State- Hoard of Control Is in the hands of this committee and with a few amendments probably will bo put through the house. If It Is It Is probable that the Dlmlck bill will be smothered, ns tho two measures conflict. Tho breach was furthor widened when, on the floor of the hoiiHe this morning. Representative Thomas, 0 member of tho house committee, ac cused members of the senate commit tee of "grandstanding" In tholr consol idation efforts. 8 At. KM.
