What's the will of the people
between a Senate and its dig
nity?
Woman suffrage has added
another state and hereafter wo
men will be allowed privilege of
the ballot in Kansas, making
five states in all. The others are
Colorado, Idaho, Utah, and
Wyoming.
On last Friday The Atlanta
Journal remarked that it would
be harder for an anti-trust bill
to go through the Senate than
for a beggar to get a dollar lrom
Russell Sage." Tru as to rail

way.
There is much work that can
be accomplished this year by
the La Grande Commercial Club
but to secure the best possible
results there are between fitly
and sixty ' business men who
should become members ' that
are not. This is -to be th6 year
of action and if the mmercial
Club does not take hold of
the many propositions that it
should, the opportunities will
pass and unless the business
men rally to its support, there
will be cause for regret.
The voters of this county who
are largely in the majority have
reason to realize the advantage
cf having a solid, delegation
against coemty division. Had
our representatives been divid

I Collier's Weekly, discussing
the plans of the president for
curbing trusts, calls attention to
th fact that these organizations
are sometimes called hogs. Con
tinuing it says: "We gain
nothing by scolding a hog for
being a hog. We rather scold
the keeper who lets him root
where he does harm."
That expresses the idea clear
ly. The publio has been scold
ing at the bog for being a hog.
This has been indulged 'in for
years. The scolding has , been
joined in by many publio men
and has often partaken of the
nature of a general chorus but it
has only been within a- short
time tbat we have had attention
directed in a practical manner
to the necessity for shutting the
hog up in a proper enclosed
