The answer i that the situation

OOSSIBLY you've been able to get along very

account. The actual building of the
new water system is underway and
there is no one who complains the
work is not being done economically
and well.
This being the case the logical and
businesslike thing for the people to do
Is to keep the water board in power
until Its task Is finished. There will
then be no shifting of authority and
responsibility. When the new water
system Ls completed If it proves to be
a good water system, the water com
missioners will receive the credit; if
it should prove inadequate "in any
way the blame will rest directly on
the shoulders of the water commis
sioners. The logical thing and the?
fair thing is to let the water board
finish the work It' has underway. The
commissioners Khould not be kicked
out of office in disgrace unless then
are substantial charges affecting
their integrity and no such charges
have been made save against Dr. Best.
Here is the way the ' New York
World looks on the present plight of
the Mexican dictator.
Hucrta Clone In striking once
To His lKom. more the attitude of
defiance, Huerta mer
ely shows again how desperate is his
position. In forcing the resignation
of the latest member of his cabinet
who has dared to advise moderation.
1)h merely again informs a watchlnu
world of the rapidly contracting
bounds of support among his own
chosen followers.
In convening the illegal congress
which it had suited his purpose tc
recogniRe. lie secured obedience only
from a chamber of deputies that ha',
been parked with members of his owr.
staff andoffice-holder of his personal
creation. The senate failed to rn':ot.
as lie had ordered. What It may do
later makes little difference. The
elections which Huerta declared in
valid us regards the presidency, be
cause too few precincts look part in
the voting, cannot be made regular
In respect to Hucrta's congress by any
grotesque logic of a dictator who
knows the end of his power is near.
With the capture of Juarez by the
Constitutionalists and their possession
of the northern states, .the richest
part of Mexico, Huerta's boast that he
will raise an army of 600, 000 men and
proceed, with the pacification of the
country is farcical. In a military way
he has steadily been losing grounJ. He
never had less reason to hope for
moral or financial support from any
quarter In Europe. He cannot borrow.
Em were

He cannot fight. Armies without
money are impossible..
His original, cabinet ls now prac
tically all gone. His closest advisers,
against whose counsels he has main
tained his pose of defiance of the
United States and permitted Mr. Lln l
to withdraw again from the capital,
are leaving him or becoming luke
warm. Over a limited section of the
country he ls nominally in control of
a government incapable of governing
and to which he can lend neither the
appearance of power nor the color of
expediency nor the title of public ap
proval, j
Huerta may delay his room. How!
can he avert it? i
To any unprejudiced mind the ar-i
guments for a non partisan Judiciary j
are so conclusive as toj
on I'artixiin leave not a shadow ofj
Judiciary. doubt as to the desira
bility of a law provid-1
ing for Such a judiciary In Oregon, j
r
In opposition to the appeal for non I
partisan Judges republican politicians
assert it is a mere plea made In be
half of those who do not belong to
the majority party. In reply demo
crats and progressive politicians as-j
sert that republican politicians op-1
pose the change because it might keep j
some of them out of office In the fu
ture The partisan plea made either in be
half of the republican party or In be
half of the minority parties has noth
ing to do with the merits of the ques
tion. The only point to consider is
whether people can best select good
judges by a test wherein the candi
date's personal fitness is made the is-
Mie or by a contest wherein the only;
test telaUx to the candidates partisan-j
sbip. U Is a onesided question,
H n-ev'er. it seems vain to expect a
non partisan Judiciary law from the.
legislature. If the state bar nsoci- j
atlon had been sincere in wanting a !

have drafted such a law for submjs-'
Kion under the Initiative. I

FROM THE PEOPLE
lK I.INKS NOMINATION.
Pendleton, Ore.. Nov. 21.
Editor Kast Oregonian:
In one of last evenings papers I
notice that the firemen of Hoso Co
No. 3 have placed nie In nomination
for fire chief, and if ymi will grant
me use of a few lines of your valu
able spare 1 would like to thank them
for the compliment and for tho good
will they have shown in even thinking
of such a thing. And while I fully ap
preciate the honor they have bestowed
on me, I must also decline to even
allow my name to be placed on fire
men s bullot. I do this for several
reasons. The chief one is that I would
make a very poor chief. My place of
business is too far away from centra!
headquarters; my residence almost a
mile farther, and I have always con
tended that a chief should be one of
the first at a fire.
Next reason and probably most Im
portant Is that as a member of the
city council I would not be eligible
for the office of chief. And sUll an
other reason is that I think when the
department Is reorganized that the
chief should be one of the paid fire
men and not one of the volunteers.
And of course It is out of question
for me to ever become a paid fire
man either In Pendleton or elsewhere
as I would not be physically capable.
So assuring the boys again that, re
gardless of anything that has hap
pened, tfrtit they have my good will
at present, same as In the past, and
that there will always be a warm place
In my heart for the Pendleton volun
teer fire department. I beg to remain
their friend.

But the rush and crush of peoples

Three thousand five hundred Irish
pilgrims recently journeyed to the fa
mous grotto ut Ixiurdes In the hope
that their ailments would be cured by
divine agency. Three pilgrims from
Belfast, after praying at the shrine,
declared themselves miraculously
cured. One of these was an 8-year-old
boy named Downey, who threw
away his crutches In ecstacy, exclaim
ing: "Look! I can do without them!"
Another was a man named Michael
Downey, also from Belfast, who threw
aside his crutches, claiming to be
cured of paralysis, and. the third, his
nephew, James MacAllster, 9 years
old, who had been suffering from hip
disease, was also able to throw away
his crutches. These cures, only three
in 3, .100, form a pitiably small per
cent of the great number who made
the long Journey, hoping for relief
from their sufferings.
The 1mdon Dally Mirror tells of
347 crippled Irish pilgrims who met
at Cannon street station on their way
home.
it was,- said the Mirror, "a scene
of the deepest pathos. Not a few had
to be supported by parents, or frlenjs,
and the sad feature of the procession
from the train to the hotel, where din-
rrer was served, was the large number
of girl and boy cripples.
"I took these crutches with me.'
said one little fellow, a son of a Kill
aloo farmer, "hoping I should leave
them nt the shrine of the Lary of
I.ourdcs. But I could not do so."
"of ciinrse, we do not take any no
tice of the partial cures," said Ihe
priest, "for It Is often the case after
the' person has returned home that u
relapse occurs "
One young woman cried bitterly
during the whole of the dinner, nnd
said tearfully: "I am In greater pain
than when I left for Lourdes." This
young woman had both legs para

BONDS AT POPULAR SALE,
(From the Milwaukee Journal.)
Chicago offered an issue of $1,800,
000 of 4 per cent bonds directly to the
public, but sold only 122.0(1(1 worth
the first day. The Chicago authori
ties bungled the whole plan by fixing
tho denomination of the bonds at the
high figure of 11000.
ft. Paul's experience threw aome
strong light on JiiRt how such an Is
sue can be moved easily. The demand
from those who wanted 110 to 1200
worth of rltv IsHiies was verv heavy

In the aggregate hundreds of thous
ands of dollars' worth of bonds were
sold. Chicago sold $22,000 worth of
the cumbersome $1000 Ishui-h In a
single day.
If Chicago will give the people half
a chance, they will buy bonds, even if
they earn only 4 per cent, which ls
lower than the regular Interest rate,
but higher than the Interest paid b
savings banks.
Bonds thut are to be sold to the

(From the New York Tlrrfes.)
An Ingenious some will fear too In
genlous parson down In St. LouIr
has devised, us a means of increasing
the size of his Sunday school, the plan
of giving to each boy and girl who
goes to It a bright new buffalo nickel
In exchange for any old penny.
In the days of old these pretty lines
were taught to a good many little boys
nnd by them recited with touching elo
quence: O how we love the Sunday school,
Sister and 1, sister and I,
And, be the weather foul or fair,
Each Sunday morning we'll he there
In lime to hear the opening prayer
Sister and I, sister nnd I.
Nothing In thut about tolling 'em
In by giving nickels for pennies. It
was love that brought them, accord
ing to confidently trusted theory, nt
least, nnd love Is Justly celebrated ns
a fine motive perhaps the best of nil
While claiming no authority ns ex
perts, we yet venture the assertion'
that the ingenious St. Louis parson Is
making a mistake.
