I'utunt Ofriu Four or five high school students out of a hundred a small percentage for those inclined toward drinking. High school students, it seems, are smarter ; than their elrjors. since a higher percentage of adult drinkers is estimated. Youngsters, although frequently impulsive, are usually keen observers. They.know tho liquor is on the down grade. They know it has no place in any practical scheme of success. It's not a question of morals but a question of good sense. And high school students today have more good sense than they possessed a generation ago. (. ' .' The Wickersham report on prohibition enforcement is logical and will have a wide effect. A further trial under the department of justice is deserved, in his opinion, with a distinct improvement in enforcement possible., -The trial will lie given. Repeal or modification is impossible in the inVmc diate future and the new enforcement plan will have its chance. If reasonably successful, prohibition will be even more firmly seated and opposition will decrease. And- if all liquor can be eliminated, the country will be far better off, more prosperous. DOPING JOSEPH With candidates for governor running hither and yon through Oregon looking for votes the possessors of those votes are getting interested m the campaign. extent of deciding very definitely what candidate they will approve, but there is increasing speculation on.the probable outcome, and especially is there speculation on the effect of Joseph in the republican race. Walter Pierce, who can have the democratic nomination if he wants it, still contends that Joseph is very likely to be nominated. And it is possible to accomplish this with a mere 35,000 votes, according to an estimate in the Spectator last week. A big group of these votes, the Spectator says, would' come from Portland where the ten-cent street car fare and the recall upheaval have played into the hands of Joseph. He night also get considerable support from tho Grange, that periodical believes, and another bunch from tho radicals who would like to see the public service commission abolished and rale fixing determined by localities. No one will say that this following for Joseph isn't possible but there are a good many who will contend it is improb able, lie might run with surprising strength in the pri maries, but it would be most surprising. Oregon people aren't usually carried away by minor issues and selfish con siderations when choosing a governor. The 10-cent fare in Portland is causing a lot of trouble. I!ut increased fares have always caused trouble and, with mounting operation costs and automobile competition, nobody has been able to do much about it. Commissioners have ' lionn ftlnpfnrl fill 1 lin t-ilnrlirn In fin-lit iiwii.rtiit-,io oiwl l,.. I tioned them later on when faced with actual figures. Port land people know this and they also know that a reduction in street car fares is not to be had merely by electing a gover nor who is in sympathy with them. Voters throughout the stale, as a whole, will reason like wise. They may have some pet policies, individually, but they will consider general qualifications first dignity, safety, administrative ability, tact, appointive judgment, fairness. In spite of agreement with some thing advocated by Joseph they will, vc believe, be slow to throw the state into turmoil by nominating a nian of Joseph's stormy char acter, slow to mark their ballots for a nuin who has been recommended for disbarment by three district judges of high standing and unquestioned sincerity. The votes of a few radicals and malcontents outside of Portland Joseph will get, if he finally becomes a candidate, but wo refuse to believe that he has a real chance even with a good total in Portland, lie will, on the other hand, play a big part in determining the winner, liccause what Joseph won't tell about the other candidates before the campaign is over won't be worth telling. He'll supply fireworks in abundance but they will die out with some other candidate leading tho procession. 1 Tk M"lar4 turf IVn ttlfM. Hv!4' ' '"Ami nT wo'ro nuirrkxl, I'm soli if?
