Naked eunio I out ov niy niolher's wuinli and nuked shall I return llillher: the Ixrd Kiive. ami tile Lord hath taken uwny: blessed be the liame of the Lord." Job 1:20,--1. j, Legislators are no different from the other people. We are xll inclined to loaf along on a job as it gets under way, then 'work like Trojans when the time limit nears and cuss out 'the world in general if circumstances urge a few days over time, All of the work that has been done or will be done could well have been' accomplished in the allotted forty days but to actually do it would show the world a model legis lature and Oregon has political fame enough. ' Patterson's veto of the Wilson toll road bill should be agreeable to everyone not expecting to use such a route every day. The toll road is all right, but the disturbance of the highway program to the extent of some two million dollars for this short stretch is all wrong. It would still not be too objectionable if experience did not teach us that after a year or two of tolls the motoring public would force the adoption of free usage. Not tolls, but regular highway, funds would eventually pay for the road and there are more logical places for the expenditure of the money at this particular time.:. ' ' ' ' ' RECOGNITION FOR I'UUNBS . ' With a $300,000 advertising campaign launched in its behalf, the prune leaves the ranks of humble fruits and joins the aristocrat s. tljagj ltn; iBeimuignjA'd as pwholo somer fruit. Vvhen. properly prepared, re is also a palatable one. 'Prunes, like mothers-in-law, are not half so bad as the jokesmiths have pretended all these years. It was perhaps only its inevitability on the boarding house breakfast table, alonjj with the knowledge that it was a .cheap fruit, that maduj the prune so trying to the human soul. Once let the advertising campaign make itself felt, with appetizing pictures of prunes and elegant prune dishes, with a pryne slogan and prune recipes on every hand, and the curses will be removed. The popularized prunes may cost a liltle:mor6, but they will be finer, perhaps, and therefore worlo the cost. - '' . v A cheerful feature of this prospect is the fact that the well known prune really is good for us, though we may have our doubts about the prune soup to' which. Prfnce William of Sweden is said to be addicted. And prunes are good for this Northwest 'country especially, because the revenue thoy bring our growers is increasingly important. ' ' " j "., f I.V 'hvnilv l.'tn rrni.. V,, I,,..,, i.'i.t t aw : l - i riv i 1 1 There are a lew newspaper misconception of the meaning, of economy They indicate by their opinions that Oregon should be well satisfied and well served if it has a roof over its head and a fair supply of hardtack and salt pork in the cellar. Economy, they would have you believe, is hoarding every dang-blasted nickel and spending only when it is necossary to pl'event life ebbing away. We would hate to inaugurate a like economy program in the news departments of their pjipers. What a howl there would be when all retpiests for additional' features of merit wcreHuincd down, when existing features and departments were pruned and eliminated ! They would call it suicide ; they would predict a big circulation loss; they would point to the effect on advertisers. Practice economy, yas! but not in their department. That's always the way it goes. Such economy is, like prohibition, fine for the other fellow but impossible for them. And such economy is, we find, not economy at all, because economy is not merely a matter of not spending but of spending wisely which is what we want in Oregon. Those things for which our tux money is spent should have merit. If they have none, we can do w ithout them. We can not, however, do without both for an indefinite period and expect the state to progress. I i rendu for .liMepli M linker Hllll llniso ' linker onlj .
