The action in tlie legislature to
abolish the horticultural cnmmis
Bion is wrong and shuld not be
carried out. We agree entirely
with tlie Oregonian on t Iiid siibji-ct
when it says : The etlort to amend
tlie horticultural act ought to suc
ceed. In its present form the art
gives the commission no siiiHcierit
jiower to compel improvement or
destruction of orchards infested
with pests; and without such jkw
er the commission can accomplish
little. A single neglected orchard
will keep a whole townshipstocked
with destructive insects. What
is wanted is an anienduiendineiit
that will give the commission
power to enforce, its orders. Many
varieties of insects der-trm live to
fruit and fruit frees have hecome
prevalent and abundant in our
state. We shall get no more line
apples, pears, etc., uiiIchu we
fight the insects ; and uncultivated
orchards, which are always in
fested, should he destroyed.
The -subject of putting electric
wires, for lighting and motor pur
IHse9, under ground has become a
i-ubject of active discussion. It is
paid that the subject w ill have a full
and fairdiscupsinn before the Miss
ouri legislature this winter. A bill
is before that body requiring flint
all wires ned for electricity be
placed under ground, and of course
there is a lively opposition thereto.
In St. Louis there is the largest
municipal lighting plant in the
country, and there are also numer
ous lines of street cars run by elec
tricity. Then the telephone and
telegraph lines are interested. They
assert that thev can not run their
wires under ground with the high
preesure currents, and the street
car men Bay no means has yet
lieen devised of running cars snc
eessfr.tly with underground wires.
It is more than probable that the
heads of the Missouri legislators
will buzz before they get through
with this subject.
The remarkable avidity with
which persons seem to desire to
predict dire disaster to this world
of ours apparently w ith the design
of disturbing the nerves of timid
people, is pretty well illust rated by
the recently promulgated theory
of Marshal Wheeler. It is to the
ell'ect that once in every .'iO,W3
years "the sun ho strougly attracts
one of the poles and repels the
other'' that the earth makes a flop
of ninety degrees. This idea, if
accepted, would clear up a great
many things which puzzle the
student of the glacial theory. It
may Ins added, for the informa
tion of timed jersons w ho do not
like to contemplate the prospect
of such a radical change of climate
as this turn over of the earth brings
about, that it will be nearly fifteen
thousand years before another flop
occurs.
Ocr State possesses a claim up
on the fame of Lieutenant
Schwatka, as he was a citizen
here, and will 1? grateful to the
Chronicle lor the following words
in bis favor. "It is to be hoped
that Lieutenant Schwatka will not
come to so inglorious an end as to
die of injuries received by fulling
dewn tbebo'el stairs in an obscure
Iowa town. Schwatka has many
failings.but he is one of the liest of
Arctic explorers am! it is a great
pity that bis m.irked abilities :n
this field could not be utili.cd.
Of all the men who have engaged
in imlar research during the las
ten years Schwatka and (ieorge
W. Melville have shown the best
combination of executive ability,
bravery anil endurance. K.ich
deserves to 1 e placed in charge of
an expedition, instead of wearing
out hie in petty routine work.'
The new ballot law should most
assuredly be parsed by the legis
lature, for the people demand it.
That is the criteiion by which the
ldgislators should be guided in all
their actions.
The dwellers of the mountainous
regions of Virginia and North Caro
lina seem to breathe in a epirit of
definance and resistance. Recent
ly in Doddridge county, W. Va., a
sheriff had a pitched battle in his
efforts to terve a warrant and the
prisoner was brought in on a
stretcher. Another tight is ex
pected when the ring-leaders of
j the mob are arrested. One reason
for this desperate resistance to the
law is the mountaineer's fear of
the jails in the lowland, which is
well brought out in Miss Murfrce's
stories. Imprisonment, even for a
few weeks, is worse to these people
than death itself, so that it is not
strange that they should resist
what they regard as persecution.
The benefit of the state of Ore
gon, to accrue from a handsome
exhibit at the World's Fair at
Chicago, seems to be fading into
the dim and distant future to such
an alarming extent, that it is
probable that it will be as impos
sible to grasp it as it would be for
the proverbial small boy to pull
the moon from the sky and use it
for a foot ball.
If there is any product in Ore
gon that deserves prompt and
efficient guarding and succoring
it is its fruits. More strict
measures should be adopted rather
than the abolishment of the
present ones.
The legislature would undoubt
edly meet the wishes of the ma
jority of the people if it would pass
a law restraining all stock from
running at large. Such a bill has
been introduced, we are informed.
