Tbe ehort space of time intervening between the dissolution of tlie late par ialment, and the queen's sreech opening the" new, only about fifty-seven days; raises the question whether it would be practical to shorten the election canvass in the United States in a national cam paign? It is doubtful if a limited i-iuivaes here would answer the same ends as the one ia Great Britain. Here wehave a vastly more extended territory to plough polit ically, occupied with a far greater variety of interests, populated with a far larger number of nationalities and requiring a longer time to effect an ed ucational fusion before the decisive de livery of their final judgment at the polls. The cases are almost radically different, while likewise related through the similarity of the accepted canvassing methods in both countries. The limitation works so well, however, in England that it naturally suggests the serious inquiry whether its adoption by us in a certain degree might not be made to work much more good than it could work harm. A political canvass extending over four months must be al lowed to claim more of a year for itself than it is fairly entitled to or really re quires for its freest exploitation. There is clearly too much margin for political operations that were better left un at tempted and for manipulations that tend to the corruption of the popular judg ment. At least one thing is certain, and that is that the sooner the people give in their vordict after the issues are made tip and the nominees declared, the bet ter it is likely to be for tbem, as well as for the parties formulating the contest. Once having become possessors of the controlling facts in tbe case, the great body of voters gain little, if anything, by further inviting appeals to their prejudices and the inflamation of their passion. Congressional debate is to lie field to have done as much to familiar ize the public mind with the merits of current political issues as could be ex pected from party platforms, reinforced by illuminated processions, bauds of music, impassioned oratory and multi tudinous hurrahs. Why is not a month or six weeks as good as three or four times that period for conducting a canvass to a satisfac tory close? This is an age of newspa pers and publications interminable. AVhy not reform our present election method in at least this respect, even as it has at last been proposed to confine our national conventions themselves to strictly deliberative ends? Some of our Big Cotemporavies scoff - at the id?a Of compulsory arbitration of labor disputes like that at Homestead. But surely if two powerful nations, like the United States and Great Britain, can arbitrate a quarrel as big as that of the Alabama claims, or the Bchring sea fisheries, it ought to be possible to force settlement of quarrels between a few thousand mechanics and a score or two of their employers in the same way. It is possible, too, quite possible. The Big Cotemporary asks: "Where ia the force to compel arbitration to come from?" Public opinion is tho force that will do it; and do it easily, when ever it is roused to make the effort in dead earnest. The Carnegies, the Pinkertons and the strikers, all pat to gether, are not strong enough to with stand Public Opinion." As soon as P. O. says that there shall be arbitration there will be arbitration. The state railroad commissioners have written a letter to Governor Ftmnoyer iu reply to his communication asking the board to prepare a maximum rate act, to apply on all railroad lands in Oregon, to k be submitted to the legislature. In the letter, the commissioners state that they found the present rates just with the ex ception of those with the Union and Southern Pacific, the schedule of which the board revised. The revision is al ready in effect on the Union Pacific, and, in the matter of the Southern Pacific, the case is at present on appeal to the supreme court of the state. The jrates proposed and established by the com mission applied to the business of 1800, an average year, amounted to a net Ear ing to the people of the Btate of over 75,000. .
