The association of railway brotherhoods points out that the private car owner is contributing more than three times as much per ton mile as the common carrier bus and truck for using the highways designed to make transportation companies operating over our highways pay a more just share of the burden.

Fish wheels are allowed on the Columbia and nowhere else in the world above tide water. The Fish Commission con tends that they prevent great quantities of salmon getting up the river to the natural spawning grounds, that if they are eliminated and the seines and traps are curtailed, the supply of salmon will be adequate after the four-year cycle and there will be more fish for everybody concerned. The salmon pack is now diminishing each year. The fish caught by wheels each year means the destruction of over 300 million eggs. The Fish Wheel bill is designed to prevent that destruction and insure more fish for future years. It will not prevent other moans of fishing. It will not destroy the salmon in dustry less than thirty men being now employed by all the wheel owners in the slate. The bill is No. 332. It deserves the support of Eastern Oregon people. , SPENDING GOVERNMENT FUNDS. Impressive analogy is supplied by affairs in Washington state in comparison with what might happen if Dan Kellaher and his teammates ride into power on the Housewives' I'ouncil plan. i We know that 110 limitations are placed on expenditures by the constitutional amendment under which five self-appointed czars are to rule in this state, if the voters are foolish enough to give them the chance. 1 Washington has a new state rapitol. For the furnishings of the governor's quarters, we are told, $00,000 was a propriuted by the legislature. Governor Hartley, investigat-' ing this subject, has stated that he will not permit such wasteful extravagance. Hat racks at $1 17, waste baskets at $!!('), cuspidors at $ 17.75 these are a few of the items. Un fortunately, Governor Hartley claims that other Washington activities are similarly wasteful under state management. Oregon's aspiring candidates for monopolistic control of all water powers, merely ask $250,000 as the first expense item. Later they will not have to ask. They can tako as, and all, they please. Under the banner of "development," this group is seeking to acquire unlimited powers without re-' sponsihility to any stale executive or other authority. I As election day comes nearer, attention of householders, wage-earners and people in all walks of life is being directed to this veiled movement, which they would have voters be lieve originated with women in the homes of Oregon. It did not so originate. It is political in its origin, based on animosity toward and intolerance of established utilities under private control. Federal and state regulation pievents acquirement of any continuing private ownership of water powers in this state.' Already a large percentage, probably over 70 per cent, of the water resources of Oregon, are under federal control and supervision, or in parks and forest reservations admin istered by the government. To set up the sHclous plea that these resources are in danger is a false position on the part of those who seek personal advantage. i 6c Banker Praises Work, of "Army" "I foul that I am a dcltlnr In ttio Salvation Army for the wnrk It Iuih done lu Iji (.ramie, and I want tti pay my ilrht," Maid Shrrwnod WllllaniH. lireHidrnl of the KUltnl.e SavlhKH lunik, last nlht In HicaklnK f H" liu-al cunt" I'ampniKU ftr funds.
