Two weeks ago a big 225-pcund husky came leisurely Into the Grar I'lc ofllce, laid down his card intro ducing himself as a deputy for O. P. Hoff, Commissioner of Labor for Ore gon, handed the proprietor a blank ,to bo filled out saying It was all a mere matter of form, took one glance about the room without taking one fitcp in llio direction of the machin ery and I hen departed. On Tur.lty of this week a demand came ironi il.o office of Mr. Hoff for tlie payment of a fee of $5 for the In spection of this office, citing a section of the law rassed by the last session of the Legislature making such pay ment inipciative. Wo also tako no t'co thut the fellow who Is supposed to do the Inspecting Is allowed $4 a day nml openscs. If the to was ever a graft perpet rated in (hfi State of Oregon here is one thai is being worked to a finish. Tho big overgrown Specimen, the happy- m .licky who dropped into this office made no pretense at all toward an Inspection of tho plant. Wo rather liked tho appearance of tho follow. Ho was big and fat, had a pleasant grin on his phiz and was considerate in not taking up much of our time. Ho was honest enough to admit that his visit to the ofllce was a mere matter of form, which was an easy way of getting around the usual term of "graft," and ho let it go at that. Tho law calls for a charge of $10 for tho Inspection of all manufactur ing plants employing people in ex cess of five, while those employing not to exceed five people are charged $5. For instance, tho big corpora tion with $1,000,000 Investment and employing 1000 hnnds pays into tho State Treasury $10 a year for having Up big plant Inspected, while tho man who has ono lono little water motor running In Ills pi hit shop for the pur pose of running a cplinder press n part of ono day in tho week to get off his paper, and a little jobber at Intervals as occasion demands, pays just half as much to hnvo tho inspect or (?) conio Into his shop, yawn and stretch his llribs, drop his card on the tablo and admit that ho is being paid to enact a farce and work a graft In tho nanio of the great State of Oregon. This graft was worked off on tho small follows at tho last bCbsion of tho Legislature, when wo wcro told that tho election of a United States Senator was disposed of at ono gulp enrly In tho session, thus giving tho members time to devoto to careiul inspection of all bills introduced,. What they would have given us If tho election of a Sonator had beon long drawn out Is simply beyond con jecture. In this Instance wo aro Inclined to be charitable and concedo It was a cubo where thoy did not know any bettor. Nowberg Graphic. COAST SHOULD WAKE-UP. What a really lino thing It would he If the Pacific Coast wool could bo manufactured upon tho coast instoal of being shipped to tho Atlantic (sea board and then back again. Seems as If judgment or brains Is lacking, or thoro Is a deep, dark, damuablo plot on tho part of somo peoplo or institutions to do tho wool growers and tho wool consumers to a dark brown turn. , Lambs aro coming In splendid con dition and tho weather Is cut out ox piessly for tho tender little fellows. Expectations aro rifo concerning tho quantity of lambs this year, hut tho matter of wool profit is viewed with Bomo misgiving. Wedderburn Rnd-linn.
