THE ANGLO-SAXON MOVEMENT. The East Oregonlan re joices to witness every influence added by Umatilla county to the Anglo-Saxon movement that is pervading the world. , The assignment of Miss Eula Van Vranken of Milton, to the foreign missionary field in Laos, .Slam, Is one of the myriad atoms of this great world movement. Miss Van Vranken. In going into this portion of Slam will perhaps carry the Engllsn language Into haunts of ignorance where that tongue has never been heard. She will, perhaps, introduce American industry to natives which have never dreamed of this far country beside the sundown seas, this new world that Invading the old. While the East Oregoiilati believes In home missions first, yet It is glad to know that Umatilla county will have a voice In that far corner of the world. Every American missionary going into the orient hurries along the day dawn of American domination in that 'part of the world, and every English word spoken to th in nrniva hrlnes him nearer to the ,.. I great enlightenment which is sure to weep over the world, ere long. When you think of the American missionaries scattered among the na tives in different parts of the world, and of the American teachers, en gineers, merchants, travelers and of ficials who visit every farthest reach Of human settlement, something of the Anglo-Saxon world movement will be realized. The American in fluence Is working like leaven in the dark corners, transforming the crude masses into enlightened entitles. The Drocess is slow, but time Is patient and the nation is young. There is did future awaiting her. striven consistently to eliminate poli tics from the management of the state institutions. A conspicuous Illustration Is afford ed by the appointment of L. T, Harris, a republican, to the position of cir cuit Judge In the Fourth district. The people of this district, which is heavily republican, had elected democrat, Judge J. W. Hamilton, to the circuit bench. When the legislature created a second Judgeship foi the district, giving the governor the power of ap pointing the first Incumbent, he deem ed it proper to give the office to a re publican, thus giving representation to both parties. The wisdom of this course has been ratified by the democrats of the dis trict, for In the recent primaries when Judge Harris was renominated by the republicans, no democratic candidate was placed in the field to run ngalnst him. The governor's adherence to the principle of a non-pnrtisan judi ciary was again illustrated when a vacancy arose on the supreme bench. Up to that time all three of the su preme judges were republicans. Gov ernor Chamberlain named a democrat to fill the vacancy. In many states the law requires that judicial appointments shall be made so as to give both political parties, as nearly as possible, equal representa' tlon. President Roosevelt has re peatedly recognized, in his appoint ments to the federal bench, the Im portance of a non-partisan Judiciary. Governor Chamberlain has en deavored to equalize the representa tion of the two parties on the various state boards, so that the administra tion of the state institutions may be as nearly non-partisan as possible. The superintendent of the state peni tentiary and the commandant of the Soldiers' home are both democrats, but no political test has been applied in the selection of their subordinates. Efficiency has been the sole test. The state engineer. John Lewis, is a republican and was appointed by Gov ernor Chamberlain. Though a young man he has had large experience, es pecially in irrigation work, and his obvious qualification for the position outweighed any party considerations. Still another instance Is found in the reappointment of the school text book commission. This board had put an end to the scandals which arose when the American Text Book com pany had a monopoly of the business In this state, and Governor Chamber lain recognized the good work that had been done by continuing the board In office. In the exercise of his appointive power Governor Chamberlain has ad hered with remarkable success to the principle that efficiency, not party politics, must be the great test. San Francisco Plans Were Cruelly Upset The San Fninrlsco Sunday Call on April 15, three days preceding the earthquake and fire, contained a lengthy editorial on the scenic beauties of San Francisco bay and urged the establishment of a line ,of bay boats for tills purpose. The editorial was In part as follows: The buy of San Francisco has a set ting of grandeur. The lights and shadows of Tamalpals, and the dreamy tints of farther Diablo and illusive peak, and Mount St. Helena, and the verdure and bosky lure of the nearer mountain shores, make our bay a scenic nsset of San Francisco of the highest value. It should be utilized. It would pay our great hotels to co operate In some way with an enter prise that would put upon the bay fine, well equipped and safe boats af fording a "See the bay" excursion, after the fashion of the "See San Francisco" street cars, which are so popular with travelers. Such service shou'd have no squalid feature about It. The boats should be as seaworthy as the stoutest revenue cutters, ele gantly furnished, and with the best of upper deck facilities for sightseeing. They rhonld be capable of going outside the heads with perfect Bafety, and should ply the bay beyond Mc- Near's Point on the west side, where the new electric railway terminal will afford landing facilities if desirable and should give ample opportunity for taking In nil of the full glory of a scene made up of the tints of the earth and the hues of the sky, of the sheen of the water and verdure of the mountains. Our destiny is upon us. We cannot escape it. San Francisco has an im petus that nothing can check. Cos mopolltan, uttering more languages than made the confusion of Babel, combining the energies and the arts of many people, the meeting place of the Occident and the Orient, with the picturesque feature' of both, this city Is emerging Into literature and arising to her Inheritance and opportunity. So much of our advantages are ready made for us by nature that our task is the light occupation of showmen. All that we need to do is to direct the owd to points of interest. We should not permit travelers to go away having seen the bay only from ferryboats and car window, to won der why there Is not some better way f seeing all the beauties that torment In the passing glimpse. We take the bay as too much of a matter of course. a good thing, because it enables ships o bring cargoes to our docks, a com mercial asset of importance. This is II true, but we venture to say that as scenic asset the bay is worth as much to San Francisco as It Is as a commercial facility. Now who will move In a "See the hay" venture?

A resolution providing ror the elec tion of senators by direct vote of the people has been favorably acted upon by the house committee. The resolu tion, Introduced by Mr. Morris of Ne braska, makes the term of members of the house four years Instead of two. Both proposition are to be accom- niuhed bv amendments to the con stitution. Reasons why the terms of mem bership should be four years are stated to be because no party can In augurate its policy in a shorter time. "The people are tired," the report anvs "of this continuous drama, and as a result are inclined io give no at tentlon to the primaries und the con ventions the very foundations or our r,Htir:il Hvstem the forum wherein the country's interests can best be guarded and protected. "With an election every two years the political grafter who thrives on partisan strife and on the nervous un certainty of controlling candidates tr.r office Is able to live from one election to another by the b'oodle Be cured at his unholy business. The adoption of the proposed amendment would render it less possible for this creature to ply his trade." splen. A NOX-PAKTISAX GOVKKXOK. In reviewing the administration of Governor Chamberlain, showing the non-partisanlsm exercised In his ap pointments, the Oregon Dally Jour nal says: , Governor Chamberlain has shown himself a believer in the principle of a non-partisan judiciary, and he has The Creed. This is the gospel of labor, King It, ye bells of the kirk; The l ord of Love came down from above To live with the men who work. This Is the rose he planted, Here In the thorn-cursed soil. Heaven Is blessed with perfect rest, But the blessing of earth is toll. Selected. At Denver James A. Towne killed his wife with a hatchet and then killed himself by cutting his throat with a rnzor.

An organization of Portland women is preparing to make a fight against equal suffrage In this state during the campaign on the ground that they do not wont the ballot forced upon them against their will. The good ladles seem to think that If the amendment carries they will be ruthlessly dragged from their homes to the voting place by the hair and mnde to vote for some man or woman In spite of themselves. We hasten to advise the perturbed fair ones that no such thing Is Intend ed. Many of the women who want to go to the polls and vote early and often will be glad to secure the serv Ice of some retiring lister to stay home and "keep the children" so the non-votlst will not only be able to refrain from mixing In nasty politics but may be able to turn an honest penny by staying at home ond herding a bunch of kids for their neighbors, an occupation which most antl-suf fraglsts Insist Is the only thing Provi dence Intended them to do.
