"Mon'i lovp Is of man's life n Ihlnn opart!"
So epoko i he fMims tie Poet's henrt.
That never in It stormy pa asl IIIIS knew
moment of the love that rlnneth true.
For love's that true from nothing stands aloof;
In all of life 'tis sure, 'mMnst trial proof.
And colors with its warmth th' bleakest day.
And bathe with shaft of Hunt the darkest way.
CRIME AND CORRECTION
r KNTIMENT for the restoration of capital punishment in
OreE0n s growing apace with the recent increase in bru-
tal murders. Persons who voted for its abolition are now
stirred to vote for its re-establishment. As quickly as they voted
against the death penalty they now would vote for it.
Hanging for first degree murder will lessen the number of
ders, without a doubt. There are persons who would take a 4
e and the chance of escape or pardon from prison on a life
. ' 'ence. But some of these same persons, with the vision of the
gallows before them, would hesitate to kill.
In a time as now, following war. when men. became hard
ened to the business of killing and when many valued their own
lives as naught, conditions are different. Thgre are many who
are of such psychology that they fear nothing of their own con
sequences if they can but satisfy their craving to kill. Their life
is nothing to society, they say. They would match theirs against
that of a useful citizen, if occasion arose. The worst would be
death for them both, a 50-50 deal, the criminal figures.
Men who kill are generally old offenders in a criminal way.
Capital punishment will lessen murder but not do away with it.
Potential murderers are held by police in large cities daily. Oft
entimes these men are criminals because of some mental or
physical deficiency which surgery could correct. We prevent
spread of insanity by incarceration and treatment in state
owned institutions. Why not prevent spread of murder and
other crime by similar treatment of chronic criminals? Then
if we still have murder, we still have the capital punishment
statute to put into effect on the offenders.

about gone. The censors say they are
swamped with work. The two chap

ments for Sunday services to us " Y"

of the boxing gloves we put out today
have come some real bouts and fun.
Rut the medicine ball soon went over

tramped the ship from top to bottom
searching for talent for singing, speak

was at the suggestion of the ship's of

The movie went off fine tonight. I
later went out on the dark deck to
look at the phosphorescent lights aa
Die ship cuts through the water. The
glow is a bright aa that from a wrist

shone opt from the ship. I had to re
move my wrist watch before the guard
would let ve pass out. All this be

AFTER FATAL MISHAP
TEACHERS TAKE POPULAR STAND
MATILLA county's teachers, in disavowing desire to affili
Tjl ate with the American Federation of Labor, struck a chord
thjt is apparently popular with teachers in widely differ
ent sections of the northwest. At the same time they were
stating their stand in resolutions, the teachers of Grays Harbor,
Yakima and Adams counties, in Washington, were doing like
wise. Unions for school teachers, as their resolutions pointed out,
are not feasible. Teachers are public servants, not employes of
private interests. They are professional workers, not manual la--bors.
They are artistss rather than artisans. They have faith
in their ability by organization other than one affiliated with or
ganized labor to receive the wage which they consider reason
able and necessary.
Strikes of school teachers would hardly be compatible with
our institutions. Attendance at school of the sons and daughters
of non-union parents and a strike of the sons and daughters of
union parents would present an unusual spectacle. Would the
union teacher spank "union Willie" at the same provocation as
"non-union Johnnie?"
Politics and religion have been kept subservient in the teach
ers of our schools for years. It is no time that unionism, which
is in effect just as dogmatic, should be desired either by teach
ers or parents.
PORTLAND. Dec. 2. By order of
Governor Olcott, neither X. P. Soren-
son. president of the Bear Creek Log- j
ging company, nor Joe Mielke. whose i
automobile recently struck and killed i
a child, -may drive an automobile for
the next 30 days. If at the end of
that time the men are unable to
prove themselves competent drivers,
the order of revocation will become i
pcrmenant.
The governor notified Chief of POr-
lice Jenkins today that he had taken
such action, saying he had forwarded
the order to the parties directly un
der date of November 30.
i-orenson s fine of S.d0 and sen
tence to six months in Jail for reck
less driving are pending on appeal, the I
hearing being set for February 9.
The law .inder which the revocation j
of the license is made Is section 24,
chr.jn.--r 'I.'s Lord's Oregon Laws. So-
rer.sen. at the time of conviction be- 1
fore Judge Rossman, offered to make i
an affidavit before the secretary of
state that he would not drive a car in
Oregon again if the Jail sentence were j
.suspcndc'l. The plea was denied.
Stirred by the wave of crime close to home, the audacity of
the Mexicans at the border and the sparring tactics of congress,
the people are throwing up their hands and, in unison, saying
"something must be done." They shake their heads and repeat
it. But there are none to see that something is done. Isn't there
a Moses among us who can show two fists and lead us out of our
wilderness?
Clothing prices will soar in the spring, the merchants say.
That is already a sore spot.
