We have become so accustomed to 40 day con tests that anything short of that will be an agreeable surprise. The wishes of the people have been so clearly expressed that we do not believe the Legislature will dare to juggle with the election in the interests of any candidate.

" Ml 1 'a T AUMC Rrrto T This daily hanging, shooting and stab bing of Father Gapon by his old confed erates must be somewhat painful. He should come our nf h rfi.m.n gag protest against it. The Lord Almighty thinks more of the country editor than of the daily news paper for he has made mote of them. Extract from a speech before the Nation al Editorial association at Indianapolis last week. Kansas has come to the front with another freak. This time it is a man who refuses an appointment as United States Senator from that state. He as signs his principal reason that the office is "hoodooed" Five of the nine superintendents of the public schoois in New York are reported to be using simplified spelling, and some of the school principals have informed their pupils that the right way to spell certain words can be left to common sense rather than to ths s-elling books. This ought to give the delinquents in orthography a chance to differ with the schoolmaster occassional!. The stove foundry at the Oregon pen itentiary could be profitably supplanted by the substitution of a jute mill, such as operated in Washington state penitentiary at Walla. Grain sacks made by convict labor in this state would greatly lessen the cost of sacks to the farmer.

One of the very sensible things done at the recent election was tee adoption of an amendment to the State Constitution giving to cities and towns the privilege of amending their charters by a vote of the people at any time. Absorbed in business, pleasure and the petty affairs of everyday life, the people of Havana completely overlooked the fact that the third Tuesday in May was the day set apart by the astrologers for the destruction of their city. The c.ty means business about the house numbering ordinance, and property owners will save themselves expense by numbering at once. If you do not know your number call at the Observer office with your lot and block number and the name of your street and we will find your number for you. With the county gradually working out of debt and the school district only about three months behind in the payment of its warrants, the tax-payer begins to see some day-light in public affairs. It is to be hoped that these branches of the pub lic machinery may continue to improve in condition until the last vestige of in debtedness is wiped out. The time when the people will be satisfied to have towns counties and school districts dragging along under a ruinous load of indebted ness, has passed, and they now demand that public officials shall make a show ¬ ing each year along this l.ne "to the good" The county and school district seem to be headed the right way.
