It Is now learned that'the last leg islature balled up Its wink us did the legislature two years ago. a ml In all probability a special session will be necessarv to legalize the aiipropriation bills. The ICvenlng Observer moves that the state legislature of Oregon by Initiative, abolished entirely. Let the whole political fabric be spread before th: people on the ballot ea h election and then abide by their decision. That Is the Oregon Idea curried a little fur ther than at present, but what harm would It do? Surely t'.ie people would tnak no worse errors than recent legislatures have done. There would not be the necessity of extra sessions, neither would there be. the wrangle and tussel every two years to elect a peaker and a president of the senate. Why not carry th? Idea of popular Kovernment through to th rlhnax and see Just how it would work. Some one will pay, the state schools will sufror. Perhaps some of them should Buffer. Tliere are many anproprlations that could be pared down and some elimi nated entirely If it wero not for the trading of legislators, If the people took a hand in th? matter there would be no trading. We admit It would be an experiment, but why not try It out. Surely we could be no worse off than wo are snd have been for the past two yfars.

Not In the least. This state ment Is based upon the government report on apoles which shows a con tinuous shortage and the demand.
