The difficulty In securing the prohibition law Tvas but insignificent compared to the difficulty of enforcing the law and making a success of the principle. The officials can do but little alone. Every responsible citizen Is In duty bound to co-operate with the officials in enforcing and carrying out the pro visions of .the law. The law may not toe perfect but the people of Umatilla whelming majority and they are evi dently emphatically In favor of it. With this heavy vote In view, every "oXficial an 3 every citizen must be -alert to make the law effective. There are dozens of ways In which 'the law cm be evaled and over- ihrown. tut n -r.e 'f these methods are crtditatie to the law-breakers. No m;ttt-r how many technicalities may be taken a Jvant.iire of to defeat the mining of the liiv, yet one thing must be rc-.iu-nvx.-ro 1 and that la that he p.-ople have p.t-.-ed the law and a'.ant it f-r.f"'-1 an 1 if this law can not be enforced, the people will pas laws which will be effective. Ttiere have been uhl.-kc-y peddlers galore in this city and vicinity in the pa.'t and the fmatilli In lian tribe "has been debauche by their vermin. 'Jlils has teen one or tne irumui sources of the prohibition sentiment which has grown up In this county. There will perhaps be whiskey ped Jiers In fu'ure, but with these the of Dcl.i!s can deal as their methods are "Oars and their crimes bold. Bjt the m-.st difficult feature of ITohibition law enforcement is that in which respectable citizens, sub stantial business men and prominent rn-ri of ell classes combine to take advantage of the technicalities. This will force the people to pass unreas onable prohibition laws laws which will not oniy be oppressive, but which will make It disagreeable and costly and exceedingly unpleasant. Every citizen should recognize his responsibility In thU matter and see that the law Is enforced a 3 long as It If a law. NO SYMPATHY NEEDED. The Portland Oregonlan is giving cut a lot of maudlin sympathy to those republican members of the leg islature who have signed the state ment No. 1 pledge, because they will be forced to vote for a democrat who happens to be the people's choice for United States senator. These fair-minded and broad-gauge legislators need no maudlin sympa thy. They obligated themselves to the people, knowing full well what an obligation meant. They will keep that obligation. They have not even considered the question of repudiating It or breaking their word. The Oregonlan may find one or two week-kneed brothers whom it can co erce by bulldozing methods, to break their faith with the people. For these unfortunate and splneleaa member the Oregonlan should save lti ym- . .. m.uw will Iia In na&A nt It If they wilfully break their word with the voters of Oregon. They will per haps be In need of something more tangible than maudlin sympathy. CAMPAIGN OPENS. With the resignation of Secretary Taft from the war portfolio In Presi dent Roosevelt's cabinet, the repub lican campaign may bo said to have formally opened. From today until the close of the polls, that campaign will be conduct- ti with vigor, fairness and ability and with the prestige of republican print-Spies to back him nnd the excel lence of the republican platform to support nnd strengthen him, W. II. Taft will be elected president by a Urge plurality, notwithstanding the opposition to him from within and without. The IOCS platform of the republi can party is one of the most progres sive and one of the broadest public documents ever Issued and on Its practical and vital principles and declarations, there should be a full party vote cast for the republican candidates. Taft and Sherman will support the platform and carry It out to the let ter. Thcv are committed to its doe- i l.-.ratlons, unreservedly. Those who j made the platform nominated the I ticket. There was no division, no I friction, no contentions which lasted i ! beyond the close of the convention, and so the republican party goes be I fore the people, as of old, with a unanimity which offers no vulnerable point of attack for the enemy. The platform adopted at Chicago declares for every Important reform demanded by the mass of the Amer- I lean people at this time. It declares j for tariff revision and the establish ment of maximum and minimum rates to be administered by the pres ident under a fixed law. That will settle the tariff question and should satisfy friends of honest tariff revis ion in both the democratic and repub lican parties. The platform declares for the pas sage of an emergency currency bill for the creation of a monetary com mission to investigate financial ques tions and recommend a safe and yet flexible currency law which will pre vent a repetition of the Wall street panic of last fall. This is all that could be done by the democrats or any other reformers in making the monetary system of the country" safe and practical. The platform declares for the enact ment of the employers' government liability act, measures looking to greater efficiency for the American army and navy. .for the widow's pen sion bill, for child labor laws in the j District of Columbia, for laws pro viding for the safety of railway em ployes and the traveling public anj other popular and modern laws. It is a platform upon which a most vigorous and enthusiastic campaign tan be made. It has the stamp and seal of P.oosevelt upon it, and promises to carry forward the excellent prin ciples which he has Inaugurated and in every- state of the Union a most active campaign will be carried on. Oregon will give Taft and Sherman the usual republican plurality. Per haps no republican presidential can didate will ever, again poll such a vote in Oregon as did President P.oos evelt who carried the state by over 43,000 plurality, but Taft and Sher man will carry the state by a safe plurality, anyway say, 30,0"0. ELECTRIC LINE FRANCHISE. With the electric line surveys going on In different parts of Umatilla county, It la almost certain that the city council of Pendleton will be ask ed for a franchise for an electric line or system before long and the council should grant such franchise, imme diately on one and one only condi tion, that the line be built into the city within a very, very short t'me. No speculative or fictitious concerns should receive recognition from the council. This city and county are in need of electric lines and the streets of the city should not be tied up by any speculative concern, for a min ute. When the council is convinced that the company asking for a franchise is genuine and. means business, no time Bhould be lost In granting a franchise, subject to proper restrictions. The hope of Congressman Ellis, that the prices on building sites for the new federal building In this city, are within reach of the government and that no difficulty will be experi enced In selecting a site, should be fully realized. Congressman Ellis has done his part. He has secured an appropriation of $70,000 for Pendle ton and now all that remains Is for the city to ell the government a good site at a reasonable price. Unless this is done the work of the congressman will be of no avail and the city will be discredited. SWISS RAILWAYS. Consul-Genernl S. C. McFurland, of St. Gall, furnishes the following in formation concerning the financial operation of the Swiss Government railways In 1907: The nnnual report of the Swiss government railway directory for 1907, covering the operation of altout 1,654 miles of government owned, broad-gauge, main-line railroads (about 600 miles of track, including narrow-gauge, cog and wire-rope en terprises, being still under corporate or private ownership but subject to governmental control), gives the fol lowing figures: Total receipts, $27, 66,4'3; total expenditures, $18,614, 924; operating profit, $S, 971, 629. Corresponding figures for 1906 were $25,637,651, $16,869,725, and $8,767,926. The report congratulates the country upon the favorable show ing made, considering the excellent, cheap, and nondiscriminating char acter of the lKissenger and freight service rendered, but anticipates a dull current year, owing somewhat to the effect of the American, financial disturbance upon Swiss Industries. The report emphasizes the steady growth of operating expenses, ac counted for by higher wages and shorter hours for employees and the Increased cost of supplies, notably fuel and metal. Thirty-seven exten sions or connections were under course of construction in 1907, in volving mountain tunneling of 33 miles, and the construction of bridges Including those only of 30 feet or more in length, 4 miles. THE SELF-RELIANT GIRL. The chief end of doctors is to teach people to keep well with the mini mum of doctoring. The hlef end of authority is to qualify people for self- government. The chief end of par ents Is to train children In wisdom and knowledge, that they may be able to take care of themselves. That has long been understood In its relation to boys. The Idea of education for boys Is to train them up through obedience to liberty. We want to make them free, nnd wise enough to thrive on freedom. As fast as they can bear It we put upon them increased re sponsibility for their own conduct, and their own use of time and of mon ey. What we want of them finally Is not merely to respond with docility to the care that Is taken for them, but gradually to become qualified to take care of somebody else. And steadily and rapidly our civilization has been coming to have a like atti tude toward girls. They are not boys In skirts, but very different creatures; their needs are different, their ideal work in life is different, the process es of education which seem most profitable for them ure different; but in them, too, we grow more and mqre solicitous to develop the capacity to take care of themselves and eventual ly of others; to develop. Indeed, all posjiibile capacities that are not in compatible with one another, and with the highest and best and most Important destiny that life holds for girls. A TIME SAVING DEVICE. Every employe of the Rank of England is required to sign his name in a book on his arrival In the morn-j ing. and If late, must give the reason: therefor. The chief cause of tardl- ntss i usually fog. and the first man to arrive writes fog opposite his name, and those who follow write "ditto." Tlie other day. however, the first late man give as the reason, "wife had twins." and 20 other late men mechanically signed "ditto" un derneath. Success Magazine.
