The present legislators will find they have done a very unpopular thing if they pormit the idea of delegating every big task to a commission. Mem bers of tho legislature were elected to go to Salem and do those very jobs. The people had confidcnco'in the mem bers or they would not have been chosen. Then why should a bunch of men, over S!l years of age, dimlHS big un dcrtakinics by putting them up to a commission, members of which are to bo named from the Saturday Night Whist club, the Independent Order of llusybodics, the Lime Kiln club and vnrioun nnd sundry Institutions which claim large- membership nnd possess few organizations which In many In stances are promoted and fostered by a few In order that they may get in tho limelight of publicity? Let the legislature do Its duty and cut out a lot of this bunk stuff about "what the people will say." The peo ple will be satisfied If wo get a square vleal and ellminnte a lot of political folderol which has' been going on in Oregon for tha pnst decade. Leader ship Is needed and needed badly nne, safe leadership, not the kind that nominates himself nnd shrieks about Attention mu.;t bo given the fia wav tax bill now beirii; considered whii h pro.-ides'for flic taxing of in cuus. Mu:-h as it- will hurt, for it piovides a tax for everything earned over a thousand dollars, there is much more merit in it than there is to tr and tax mortgages and notes, a thinj- which has always been unsuccessful and cumbersome. The Olcgon university has discov ered that deep breathing will mak( more beautiful forms for women Wonder if it took nn imported profes sor at a salary or S-iiinn a year to teach this fact which is well known to every girl raised on n ranch in Knst- ern Oregon. With McAdoo joining Mary Pick ford anil Charlio Chaplin nnd l'utty Arbucklc screen lovers will expect to see some excellent productions. Prob ably dUe will be his explanation of "Why Father Kept Him from Running for tho Presidency" or was it "moth er" who did it? Those boys who were put in the linker jail for snow-balling will grow- up to lie men some ol inese nays, nan they will hold a malice that is ever lusting against officers who did it. It is n aeriouB thing to loso the friend ship of a good boy. Hy all moans tho birds on the Mal heur lakes should continue to receive protection. Oregon's happy hunting ground is too great an asset to be frittered away like many other good things have been. Ola Hanson is the Koosevelt of Washington state. Would that we had a few more Oles. The only time to call a bluff Is on the very start and thut Is what Ole did and he forced a show down. -TV. lt.,.P i. X y. ?:-eeio. i--::y.--ii-A. Week!'
