The brotherhood should not gc on

to regulate railroad rates and place
restrictions upon the corporations. No
body of worklngmen can afford to be

IMITATE THE MORMON.
t
Utah has received no allotment
from the reclamation fund of the
United States government. The rea
son Is apparent at first glance:
The activity of the Mormon has left
nothing available for the government
to undertake in that state.
Oregon, like Utah, can be slowly Ir
rigated by private capital, in spite of
the government. In the Echo and
Eutter creek districts, In the Hudson
Bay and Milton districts. In the Des
Chutes and Crook county districts, at
Ontario, Owyhee, raker City, and In
nearly every other portion of eastern
Oregon where there is arid land, pri
vate capital Is proceeding slowly and
within 10 years can reclaim almost
the entire available arid area.
Let us Imitate the Mormon; let us
act up our little private project and
foster It and encourage It and nurture
it Let us Irrigate with waste water
which the government despises, In Its
masterful and towering Ideals.
Oregon needs government Irrigation
less than Nevada, New Mexico or Wy
oming, bo let us take up the work
among ourselves.
HANDLING HOT CHESTNUTS.
A monkey sat by the fire wondering
bow he should drag the hot chestnut
from the coals, when he suddenly
seized the cat's paw and plunging It
among the livid embers brought out
a feast which he immediately began
eating, while the burned cut sat howl
ing In the corner.
Strange, that with the closing of
the literary bureau maintained by the
railroads In Chicago, for the dissemin
ation of anti-rate regulation Hlera
ture, the railroad brotherhoods should
Immediately begin a movement among
themselves against rata regulation.
How are they interested? Where

organized In Portland among women
opposed to suffrage
If any one In this land of liberty Is
entitled to vote, is It not tho devoted
mother who brings the boy Into life
and guards and nurtures him and
shapes his character and directs his
thoughts?
It Is tragic and almost unbelievable
to see women thus arrayed against
their own sacred rights and privileges.
It is like the old slavo begging to be
taken back by his master, after hav
ing been given his freedom. There is
something disheartening in the scene
Voting would not bu compulsory
upon women any more thun upon
men. They could either vote or stay
at home. Just as men do, but they
should have the privilege. It is neces
sary as a, balancing power In politics
and government.
It Is bad enough to see men arrayed
against their mothers and wives, but
It is doubly disheartening to see good,
sensible women fighting against their
own sacred right.
Heretofore, years ago, It wus dls-
reputabltK for a man to favor equal
suffrage. Now It is the most gallant
and manly doctrine to find lodgement
In the citizen's breast.

The most noticeable thing in the ad
vance talk concerning the coming
ampaign In state politics Is the whis
pered fear among candidates that the
conventions will njt sanction the
vote of the direct primary nomina
tions the Geer episode and the Unit
ed States senatorial fight still lingers
on the ragged edges of memory, a
dun. dim, haunting host of a thing
with a knife up its political sleeve.
Another noticeable thing In the ad
vance talk, Is the monopoly of offices
and candidates claimed by Portland
and the valley counties eastern Ore
gon, as usual, being a secondary con
sideration. There are candidates galore, but all
from west of the Cascades, and all
allied with the old political rings
which have wrought Oregon's present
grief. They say It Is to be a new deal.
If so, let It be a new deal from the
start. The old sports will run In a
"cold" deck on the people before they
know It If they are allowed to dictate
to conventions.
