Angeles is praying for rain in Portland.
' ! THE OLD OREGON.
! The old battleship Oregon, famed for the victory she
helped win more than a quarter of a century ago, has now
come to rest near the Rroadway bridge in the Portland
harbor, there to remain a refuge of memories, an inspira
tion of youth. Although now useless and discarded by a
nation that must keep pace with naval development, the
glory that is a proud possession of the old Oregon is none
the less bright for that fact. Like the deeds of our ageing
veterans, her fame will live long after the material remains
have vanished, constantly giving new momentum to our
efforts toward permanent peace, a better nation, and truer
domocracy.

J A POOR AL1IU.
Receivers for the Milwaukee railroad have listed trur.k-iiijfl-bus
competition as one of the reasons for the failure
of the company to meet its obligations. There may be
i.onio truth to the statement that the company has lost
revenue from this competition, but it is hardly responsible
for tho failure, l'.us and truck operation has come lo at;iy
nnBTrttl gl'iUlumiy'lvBTirttiasirHitd ail iiilegrarpart oroiVr
transportation facilities, yet it cannot possibly supplant
railroads, and blaming this agency for lost earnings is
utterly foolish. If the Milwaukee hud been efficiently
operated, as other large systems serving similar territory
under similar conditions, the amount of business handled
vould have returned a small profit and made a deficit
impossible. Over-organization, unnecessary promotion, in
efficient management, poor personnel morale, and financial
manipulation will ruin any railroad or any business. Com
petition plays a small part when such conditions exist.
A FOOLISH ciiakci;.
The editorial in the Pocatello Idaho Stale; Journal enter
ing a complaint against "bailed" traffic arrests in I'niou
county is utterly foolish and probably resulted from co:i
veisation with some disgiunllcd traveler who is insulted be
cause he isn't allowed to tiavel ,ri0 miles an hour over Ore
gon highways. Kvery community and every highway has
that type of nioloi ist who knows the law, who breaks it
knowingly, and who holds a grudge forevermore because
lie happened to gel caught. Wo are glad when that variety
is gathered in.
' The Pocatello editor, if he knows anything about niotoi
ists, their speed habits, etc., knows that about 75 per cent
of them break the speed laws and only about one per cer.t
mo arrested and fined. To the average ear owner who
drives a great deal the Oregon law of !', miles an hour
js too slow. They believe, and are sincere in it, that they
iv n drive at :ri and 10 frequently with perfect safety to
themselves and others on the highway. We believe they
fill and we are of tho opinion thai state traffic officers
think likewise. The dangerous violator is the one who
thinks he can drive beyond the limit on all occasions au.l
under any traffic conditions and he is the man that is
r.iually caught and should be caught.
As far as "bailing" speeders is concerned, any drivr
knows that il isn't nccessaiy to hail motorists to get then:
beyond the ;!0-mile limit. And that's as (rue in Idaho as
il is in Oregon. Anil if all the drivers who exceeded the
limit set by law were arrested, the justices would he abV
lo; do nothing else but hear their cases. The authorities
should not and probably do not want such a fine line drawn
bill they do want to slow up the careless and ineonsiderat''
Oliver wlui makes himself a menace on tin- highway. And
il , is that brand that probably has found an audience for
hi.i "crabbing" in Pocatello.
