'ANOTHER DEFEAT .
TT IS not surprising- that thAe 1?
consternation among the old
guard at Washington. -
i.Tha nomination of Ptnchot for
governor oft Pennsylvania in Tues
day's primaries makes It increas
ingly evident that a largo bloc-of
the" voters of the country are not al
together pleased with the actions of
those people at Washington who are
listed among the standpatters.
Senator New's defeat In the Indi
ana primaries was the moat-striking
example of the trend of the coun
try. It was the first test of the trend
of nubile, opinion as to progressive
isn and standpatism. " Senator New
has always been listed among the
Old - Guard. Mr. Beveridge, In his
senate term, was , a Rooseveltlan
progressive. Mr. New had a big
ad-antage in the election, but it
wasn't sufficient to overcome, the
disadvantage of Old Guard theories
of government. . , ..- ........

the Old Guard closes, the governor

Frelinghuysen, i anther stand
Jpatter, is con fronted with . .: a severe
test, in New Jersey.' -Governor Ed-
jwards will undoubtedly: be Jila oppo
fnent in the final contest, and it is
generally admitted that another Old
Guard sepator may fall before the
onslaught of progressive ideals.- '
Even he kaleidoscopic I6dge the
man of changing opinions, is threat
ened with defeat in Massachusetts,
and a similar fate may overtake his
standpat colleagues 4n the "senate.

The country has seen a leaderless
congress. It has witnessed a presi-
ident who is entirely sincere and
jpersonally popular, but who is la
iborlng f utilety with a ' drifting con
jgress. It has seen the. operations
of a government too closely tied to
jthe tails of Big Business and one
.that has xaiiea m most errorts to
'function for the benefit t the po
ple generally. There is every Indi
cation that the Old Guarders are to
have a reckoning wheny&he ' ballots

SHUT OFF FROM THE WORLD
PROMINENT motion picture
actress, was recently invited to
'spealc from- the ' pulpit of a New
England church. -She accepted. Be
fore the engagement the invitation
ras withdrawn and the girl waa pro
iiiblted from appearing in the pulpit,
t One of the best 'ways to get facts
)s to search for them. It is a -difficult
matter indeed to learn what
is going; on in the world by shutting
the door to the world, and there is
tittle opportunity - to j&9 the florid
any good by standlngaloof from it.
Why not have heard' what ;;the
actress haff to say?- Why not "get
her - viewpoint and her informa
tion ? ,he was endeavoring to help J
the church to help' people, not to
vamp the parish.' 1 . .
Are actresses bad . because they
are actresses.: and are all actresses
bad? Hardly. ; .Each " profession
and every business has Its ' failures
and Its immorals-and ;its 'Crooks.
They are eve tq be found ' In
churches-. Bwt it is not "t&a fault
of the 'profession, tne business or
the chureb. -; j ' ;i , -k s '
. The churches have- been- founded
to aid the unfortunatss, to spread the
gospel of the Nazarene. and to uplift
mankind. They are established ' to
make the world better. , Can bad be
made good by refusing to recognize
it?'- Can a reform be accomplished
without locating the cause of the
trouble ? . Can the cause " be -established
without hearing the facts and
without seeing .hemf .: . .
No judge- ever, gave a proper de
cision by hearing but one side of a
case. No matter .how -low,, every
man and every woman has the op
portunity to be heard before Judg
ment is passed, and facts cannot be
obtained and facts are what count
without hearing all 'that Is to be
said, 'and seeing all that is to be
seen. .When that has been done a
reason can be ascribed for the trouble
and means. taken to terminate it.
It would be absurd to nominate
Charles' W. Garland for the district
attorneyship of Multnomah county.
In his record is si disbarment by the
supreme" court from! the practice of
law, an Indictment ; in Multnomah
county for larceny by bailee, a judg
ment of guilty on another charge for
the same .offense , in Multnomah
county. - If there is one office more
than another in which the highest
integrity is important it is the dis
trict attorneyship.
DO YOUR DUTY
YOU ought to go to the polls to
morrow and vote.
One reason that there is a kick
against the direct primary is that
you 3tay at , home on : primary day.
The politicians' with axes to grind
at your expense don't stay at home.
They are all at the polls with their
lieutenants and fighting men.
As a result things don't go to suit
you, and you raise. a howl. As an
upright citisen and a taxpayer you
want good government, square gov
ernment and economical govern
ment. .
The politician ' wants roosting
nlaces and public salaries for his
friends. He "wants to pay political
debts with public money. He is the
chap that is responsible for creating
so many new jobs.
He wants tin can Inspectors and
cemetery inspectors and livery stable
inspectors and drug inspectors and
bathinr suit inspectors. He wants
new judgeships and new assistant at
torneys and new Jobs of every kind
for the faithful brethren who back
his candidacy. . And he gets them
because you are a stay-at-home on
primary day, and often on election
day. And then you howl. You sit
on your haunches and ululate like
a hyena on the hills of Jericho. And
you let interested people persuade
you that it is all the fault of the
direct primary.. i -
It isn't the fault of the direct
primary. It is your fault, if you
are a stay-at-home. No system of
government can do it all. Citizens
have to do something.
Most of the ills of government are
the fruit of failure of intelligent
citizens to vote, willingness of so
many to vote the bidding of unsound
leaders, and the servitude of so many
in voting by party label.
Your place and every freeman's
place . tomorrow is at the polls, to
vote as you think and thsk as you
vote. .... -. ?
Strange how many flies there are
each spring despite winter's - cold
and last summer's anti-fly campaign.
Each fly swatted now kills the
equivalent of 10,000,000 later in the
season,, say our best Informed
scientists. i . ,
PLAY FAIR
T'HE JOURNAL holds no hrief for
' County Commissioner Holman.
But, as a matter of fair play, it is
due Mr. Holman and the other com
missioners to -say that published
charges that . Multnomah county fi
nances and business are demoralized
are unwarranted. ' A statement is
sued by John Lewis, county treas
urer, is a follows:

The statement of Treasurer Lewis
is widely at variance with state
ments in. the Oregonlan relative to
county finances.'. Mr. Lewis has no
private grudge against Mr. Holman.

tf AN IDEA
the school graduates in - a
-tA- wi
hole county parading on the
streets and receiving their diplomas
in the same big auditorium at the
same time was a scene in St. Helens
yesterday, - ; A . . . . -
They, were eighth grade graduates
and there were over 200 of' them.
The idea of the school authorities
and citizens- was to make comple
tion of the elementary school a day
of . celebration. The gathering in-
eluded every eighth grade graduate
for 'the year in Columbia county.!
There was a parade at 10 o'clock.
At noon the youngsters were guests
of honor at a luncheon provided' by
St. Helens business men. After, the
luncheon they were taken in a body
to a picture show,1 ! At 3:39, a large
audience assembled in the, big audi
torium of the St. Helens high school,
where there was music, an address
and the presentation of diplomas.!'
Jt was . a - red letter day - for the
young graduates. So. far as known
it is a new idea, ; put into 1 effect
for the first-time in Oregon.. 'Jit, was
an accentuation of sth schools at! a
time and in a;way to impress both
pupils and parents ': with j. the im

FOR THE LONGSHOREMEN !
A Plea to Shipowners to Peal With
- : r Actual -Workers Direct.
Portland. May 12. To the; Editor of
Tie Journal A speedy way ito lend the
strike iwould be to give the work direct
to the longshoremen.' We ; do the work
with oar own bosses to 1 drive i us, bo-
cause the stevedores knovf that Ve can
not loaf on the Job as we couldi if they
furnished their own bosses. : There are in
Portland nine stevedoring, companies,
consisting of manager, assistant man
ager, walking bosses, paymaster, time
keeper; clerks and toolman.l There is
big !office rent up town, and.! n' fact,
about 50 or 60 living off .600; longshore
men. - j'- : I. -; ! I ' i J '
They have whatj they call a conveyer
and;; chute system to load: skekj i goods,
which : is : unnecessary and fdagerous.
It takes a day to rig this chute up, with
the expense of 10 r 12 .men. j If jit were
hoisted in. the ship could go to work as
soon as docked with noti One-tenth the
danger, and as quickly or qtlcker than
with the chutes, and with less-damage to
cargoes. Y j .;) J : f-fl i. ' -
There are four or six bosses en each
ship, where one: is! plenty. If something
goes wrong for- a few. minutes the'f ore
man; has orders to mark down time lost.
It may be 10 minutes, but if the ship
gets away with so many men , losing
more than one hour's time she if lucky.
There are cases known here where ships
hare paid as high as 3400 and i$50O to
the stevedore company for float time.
You can guess how much time was lost.
What in: the world is j wrong With; the
shipowner's headT Is he blind, lor how
does he let. the - stevedores deloide him
Into thinking he has to have them, to load
Lhis ships? , They are paying to the steve
dores hundreds of thousands of j dollars
every year for nothing Let thim hire
men direct from the longshoremen's hftlt
on an hourly or tonnage basis.l and it
wws is an saasiacxoy 310 xnem iney
Can blame the i longshoremen, and there
Is no chance to pass the buck, as! the
stevedores;: have i been doing for years.
So wake up, ; shipowners and 'business
men.. Don't try. to break up a good body
of men citizens, property iCwaerS. most
ly married men, and aU freefeoro white
men to help a few middlemen that have
been profiteering off you for years. ' Send
to the longshoremen's hall and you will
fref good work., and save from 32000 to
$6000 on each boat loaded by expert long
nioremen. j j, . .t, '1...- ..... ; .John Francia,'s .
