It 13 solemnly announced that two federal appointees will hang onto their places because Dr. Coe has seen President Taft. Laying aside the question of what use are Colwell and Malcolm to the Republican party, or any party, why has Coe been called in? Do not those who know Oregon and manage Oregon politics begin to understand that the common people think and vote? When it takes a millionaire to land a federal job for a striker for the Republican machine, Republican voters think and swear. What is President Taft thinking about when he names men for federal places who have no political backing, but a million aire? If the party organization that is provided by law were back of Colwell and Malcolm President Taft would be excusable. On the issue of Taft retaining Colwell and Malcolm on the en dorsement of Dr. Coe, Oregon would go Democratic in 1912. There may be other things, like the tariff question, to save the party for the Republican party possibly a foreign war would doit. M- Republicans qnd Democratic voters are opposed to one-man pover and machines and bossism based o nwealth in public ad ministration. , ' Federal officials who are heldin their places by the use of the money controlled by a millionaire will serve the millionaires. The prostitution of our government by officials who feel they owe their place not ta a political party, but to a millionaire, is fatal. The Capital Journal is a Republican paper and stands for straight party organization by both parties and party responsi bility. What principles do men like Colwell, Malcolm and Coe repre sent, except the power and in-fluence of wealth in public af fairs. This matter involves the existence of Republicanism in Ore gon. o REASONS FOR A BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION. There are many small leaks that run taxes up on the people of this state, that a business administration would stop. Erecting public buildings, making public improvements, pay ing out money for labor are investments for the people. Lands acquired at a fair market price and improvements made where the money is honestly expended are an investment. Money expended that way is not graft and benefits the tax payers and improves business and increases the wealth of the state. Talking with an importer andwholesale dealer in plants and shrubs, he said he had furnished a great deal of stuff for the state. When asked if it was not profitable business, he shrugged his shoulders, and said he got almost no price at all. He said he had known of such stuff for the state house grounds going through three different hands before it reached the state. When the state finally got it the price was three or four times what it was from the wholesaler, and the difference is the graft. If all state business could be done as business, there would be a load taken off the shoulders of the taxpayer. It is probably too much to expect, but the present state ad ministration promises to take steps in the right direction. So far as it does the people will be benefitted, fair prices for materials and supplies will be paid, and no more. For this reason alone the Jeffersonian principle of clearing out the departments once in four years ought to apply. It loosens a man's tongue to turn him out of office. ERECTING A BUILDING EVERY DAY Dr. Lyon o OXE Hl'XDltKI) AX1) THIRTEEN BUILDING PERMITS ISSt'ED IS 110 DAYS TO COST MORE THAN $200,000. One hundred and thirteen building permits over a permit a day have been Issued by City Recorder Elgin since the first of the year, and, ac cording to the value placed on each of them they represent an expendi ture for building purposes of $216,. 000. The number of permits have rather increased than abated in the last month, and Indica'on9 are that the present average of one a day will be maintained until the building sea son Is past. Excepting the brewery building. which is valued at $35,000 the addi tion to the high school building, which is valued at 131,000; the Thlelsen building, a two-story brick structure, valued at $12,000, and one, or two frame buildings, which are Do ing erected for business purposes in the outslklrts of the city, the permits call for the erection of residences.

Phone 114 With plans practically prfected for the paving o" 10 miles of the city's streets during the present sea son, and with plans under way for the pavement of a tout 20 miles more it certain now that the city is des tined to experlenca in street im provement work this year one of thej best, if not the best, season in its his tory. , The streets fo" which plans are practically perfected, and which are certain to be improved, and which make up the ten miles referred to, are: D street, South Fourteenth street, North Cottage street, Liberty street, Summer street, North Thir teenth street, Fen street, Asylum avenue, Twelfth street. North Com mercial street and Mission street. The plans for-these streets call for them being paved with bitullthic, El oso and concrete, and the work of pavng them will out in circulation in the city thousands and thousands of dollars. Much More Planned. In addition to the above 10 miles of pavement, plans are being made for about 20 more, but their present status is such that it cannot confi dently be predicted! that they will be carried into effect. In same cases petitions praying for the pavement of streets are yet subject to remon strance; in some cases sewer Im provements may defer the work un til next year, and in other cases the property owners have only taken the preliminary steps looking to paving, and have not yet filed petitions with the council. But, making allowances for the above cases, it would seem absolutely safe to predict that before the building season Is at an end' that the city will have at least paved 20 miles of street, if not 25 miles. One of the large infractors, who has done much good street paving for the city in the past, and who now has many streets contracted for, and who, because of h.- superior work, will no doubt be awarded a number of more contracts, Is August Kchr berger. Mr. Kehrberger has a repu tation for excellent workmanship, and also supplies the best grade of ma terials, and is now making arrange ments for that kind of material for the work he has In contemplation for the season.
