This la a fundamental principle of donio ciatlo government. THE first rumblings of the im pending battle over the re apportionment of the members of the house and senate In the state legislature were heard to day. Multnomah county wants MORE representation In the leg islature! In fact the city of Port land wants five more representa tives, making a total of 18, or close to a third of the total num ber, and three more senators. The number of Portland sena tors would be thereby increased to nine. If this bill, proposed to day by Representative Nouberg er, Is approved it will mean that Portland will just about control both houses. It would so far out rank and outvote all other groups thut any semblance of reasonable balance would be lost. r It should be noted also in this connection, that the recently re vealed official census figures In dicate that while Multnomah county gained only five per cent In population during the last dec ade, the state as a whole (includ ing the poor shoving made by Multnomah) gained 14.2 per cent. Rural areas gained 20 per cent. In suggesting more represen tation for Portland, the bright young legislator manages the mathematics of the plan by tak ing representation nway from some other sections. Douglas county, now having two representatives, would be re duced to one- and -would share another with Lane county -thus giving Lane county a half a rep resentative more and Douglas half a one less. Offhand one might conclude there had been collusion between the Eugene master-minds and Neuherger but that Is pretty dif ficult to lielieve. The Lane county super-men would not i have been contented with half a legislator- they would want at least one whole one. j Hut we should not think ton , harshly or the Eugene boosters. They have done a splendid Job of 'building up the economic future! of thai city let the chips fall ' where they may. Though at times we have been all but smothered In the clouds of chips ! from the hatchets of the univers ity city builders, It is nothing bill a repetition o( the sour grapes legend If we complain. In the current instance it would be n mighty fine gesture - and a sensible one loo if the hatrhel men would bury their weapon for a time and give us a helping hand. It can actually profit them none at all to lend aid to the nefarious scheme of cutting one of our representa tives In half. Though half a loaf may huve lis merits - such rea soning cannot well lx applied to lawmakers. Editorials on News (Continued from I'imo 1) to interrupt product ion.

A police officer told the court the 56-year-old professor said aft er his arrest last night: "I thought my powers were falling, and I could not cope with my work.

WC J I f 'OUNTRY'lp I VHAT JH RAMBLING S By PAUL JENKINS OOMETIMES I seem to -possess a remarkably slngle-t r a ck mind, and last night was one of ' those times. ft : My mind dwelt ipon furnaces, In ! ?eneral, and saw- , lust furnaces In par- :lcular. It not only iwelt there, it took :oot and grew there. My furnace (sawdust) neces sarily had been left to its own devices all yesterday and, over come by temptation, it smoked. Maybe its better nature fought against the base desire, perhaps " dld: for ''m 8uro " on,y bpBim '"""'J' "y '"- the evening. I hope so, lor re sistance to evil, no matter how weak, denotes a soul not quite dead to that which Is good. I don't know how many times I've said to my furnace, "If you must smoke, do so in my pres ence. I'd much rather you did that, than sneak out behind the barn -when my back Is turned." If a man pats the wrong kind of food, he will get the stomach ache; if a sawdust furnace cats the wrong kind of fuel, it smokes. If a man gets a chick en bone In his throat he doesn't desire a smoke ho dies, unless it is removed; but if a sawdust furnace gets a stick athwart its I throat, although ultimately it will die if unattended, It surely """' mat. The fault, of course, lies with the fuel.

By William : ask for, but it seems to be too ' much to receive, sawdust which I doesn't have a lot of sticks cun- ningly concealed in it; sticks which are so long that they will lodge across the funnel-end of the hopper and obstruct the free flow of the sawdust. When this occurs the fire eventually will climb from the firebox up into I the hopper and smoke will pour iium its iiiuuin uisieau ui uiu chimney's, where It belongs. "Why don't you find these sticks and remove them before you dump the sawdust into your hopper? you may inquire. My answer it, why doesn't the fuel company keep 'cm out of the sawdust In the first place? There's only one of me to fish 'em out; the company has a lot of men, to keep 'em from getting in. Sometimes, in warmer weath er when the thermostat compels a slow fire, the sawdust doesn't need the assistance of a stick to cause it to pack In the hopper and cease Its flow. It packs It self. Usually in that case I ad vocate the treatment advised years ago for a recalcitrant cow beat it over the rump with the milk stool. The cow never "gave down" very satisfactorily after this, but by crackie, the hopper will.
