ave a uPm that the party, boys &re singing "Wait
T T for the wagon and we'll all take a ride." The wagon
will be the state central committee meeting as a -convention
for nominating a republican candidate for governor. Our
fear, is that the committee meeting may not be a gathering
with an eye single to select the best possible candidate for
governor of the state, but one which will engage in trading,
'intrigue, barter of jobs' and 'wind up like the presidential
nomination in 1920 did by a dark deal in a hotel room at some
early morning hour. . . - i .
' What are the materials for such a session t First a crop
of "favorite son" candidacies proposed with no hope of suc
cess but as A foil for under-cover work; Second, Ambitions
of individual committeemen or of others who may claim to
control committeemen, ambitions which will demand satis!
faction in the way of promise for political preferment. Third,
the busy work ox the party hacks, the water boys whociilk
the elephant, the go-between chaps who carry the grease
buckets, frame the deals and pull the wires.
The committee will find itself in ill favor if it makes a
nomination as a result of backstairs intrigue and dark corner
manipulation. It has nothing to buy and should have .noth
ing to sell. The man who is named governor because of his
consent to compomise and shady bargains and promise -of ap
pointment does; not merit support.
What we fear is the wire-pulling of old-line organization
politicians. Naming Metschan for governor and Cook for
state chairman would be a triumph for the kind of machine
politics the state wanted to get away from when it went over
to the primary system. The committee holds no mandate to
name a man endorsed by the Joseph camp-followers ; but if
it runs off its convention after the dark and devious ways of
hotel-room manipulation it will give a slap in the face not
only of the Joseph crowd but of most of the progressive-;
minded voters of the state. , '
In our opinion Kay is the outstanding candidate, the man
with the best experience and the greatest capacity for hand
ling the job vigorously and successfully. His known inde
pendence holds him free from truculence even to the party
organization. There are other men of .honor and capacity
who are mentioned whom we could gladly support. Much'
will depend however upon the manner in which the success-:
f ul candidate is named.
A great deal lias ben said about this committee nomin
ation offering a chance to demonstrate the superiority of
delegate action over the direct primary. It does offer that
Opportunity. The committeemen need to remember it and
realize that the people of the state are watching not only for
the name of the nominee but the committee's methods of
procedure. '
A Candidate for
TN the July issue of the Oregon Motorist, Dr. E. B. McDan-
A ieL president of the Oregon Motor Association, nominates
Dr. John McLoughlin as one whose statue should be placed
in National Statuary Hall at the national capital as one of
the two citizens "illustrious for
distinguished civic or military service." Each state may se
lect its two persons to be so honored and must provide the
statues which shall be of marble or bronze. Oregon is not
represented, whether because the legislature could not agree
on the names, or because the state did not want to buy the
statuary we cannot say.
But the recommendation of Dr. McDanlel seems very
appropriate. In looking at the long history of the Oregon
country Dr. John McLoughlin stands out as one of its dom
inating figures, one too who labored for a lifetime for the
sound development of this region, favoring the settlers at his
own cost. He chose Oregon for his residence and became a
citizen of this state, and is buried at Oregon City. ;
Sketching back over our history his name seems to be
the only one deserving of such recognition, for he is almost
the only one who made a contribution that transcended the
boundary of the state and one which was most vital in the
opening up of the entire northwest. Most of our other names
are only of local reputation. We

The Why of Picnics
THE Eugene Guard seeks to psychoanalyze the phenomena
of picnics. It raises these srofound emeries:'

We can give hhn the answer as we recall it from cur old
college professor of biology: Tlay is the rehearsal of ances
tral work." Men like to fish, because fishing was once the la
bor of his ancestors' and the habit is in his blood. A man goes
out to hunt now for the sport, 1ecauscr of the echoes in his
ears of the ancestral urge to hunt lor food. Football Is the re
vival of. physical combat.. So werappose a woman likes to
leave her well .appointed kitchen where convenience is a
shibboleth and go out tq the lakeside, where water must be
carried in pails, ants get in thw hooey, Id canrj stoves Are
fixed up for cooking And dishes must be washed in crude
fashion. She finds pleasure in it, we. presume, because her
remote grandmothers labored thus in primitive surround
ings; and a rehearsal of this ancestral work becomes play to
her. - v ' ; - - , .

That more oa Faith's part was
the result, of an Increasing peril
ia the focse. The men were
getting drink again.
This began one day when a
foremast hand came aft to take
