At the coming election Nebraska will vote on a constitutional amendment that provides for the creation of an elective state railway commission. The time is not far distant when such a commission will be demandsd in nearby states. The merit system of promotion for teachers in the public schools has been adjusted by the school board of St. Joseph, Mo. By a system of examinations and graoirg, the classification of the salaries of teachers will be advanced whenever their records justify such advancement. In Oregon, as in every other stat. with which we are familiar, the teachers in the public schools are underpaid. Any measure which looks to better financial rewards for honest, capable effort should receive encouragement. The teaching of children is too important a task to war rant the risk of having inadequate re muneration. Tne good teachers should be encouraged, and the way to do that is to make the future brighter for them, so that they may remain in the work and know that the salaries will be increased as their services merit such increase. Pendleton Tribune. The long controve sy between Mayor Lane and the San Francisco relief com-. mittte is at an end, and the money will be soon at the disposal of the people for whom it was intended. Amen! Evening Telegram. The city council last evening arranged to convert a part of the city building into city jail. This is move in the right direction, and one that should have been made many moons ago. But the good move stopped just a little short, just one step short as a matter of fact The ad ditional tep should take the cells out ef the building as it now stands. -' While it is true that at the time the present building was constructed, space was left in which to place the cells', but the growth' of the city and the increased amount of business which is now transacted in tr.e city build ing makes it ; necessary to utilize this space originally intended for the cells. It seems that it would be proper to con struct a small room in the rear of the fire building in which the jail proper could be placed. - There are many reasons for this. The first and In itself a sufficient reason that the room provided for the cells under the present arrangment is entirely too close to the Recorders office. It is a well known fact that the occupants of the city jails are often of the drur.k and disorderly Upton Sinclair's next book will deal with Pittsburg millionaires and their ways ,nd morals. But will Mr. Sinclair suc ceed in inducing Federal investigation ai d Federal regulation of the Pittsburg jun gle? Evening Telegram. Forty Denver men have been hired to go to China where they will be given commissions as officers in the Chinese army. They have all had experience either in the regular army of the United States or in the Colorado national guard. They wiP teach the Mongolians how to fight, and eventually Uncle Sam may pay daarly for it. Those who expected a spectacular demonstration last evening at the council chamber were disappointed. As the motion to grant the committee more time in which to make the investigation did not place any lim.ts upon the time granted, there is no particular reason why tie public should expect to ever hear of the affair in an official way again. type, and many times use language aito gether unbecoming gentlemen, and offen sive to the ears of gentlemen, and un bearable to ladies. Many ladies call at the office of the city recorder. This is made neiessary from the fact that the water bills are payable to the Recorder. Another good and sufficient reason is, that it would be . impossible to properly ventilate the space set aside for the cells, and good ventilation is absolutely neces ary in a matter of jails. There are many reasons which could be advanced, but the council will undoubtedly see the necessity.
