the state at large i a serious prob

Under the present system it is an
easy matter to work a combination
of special interests for certain pop
ulous districts. Eastern Oregon
with her vaet territory, cota but
little figure in legislative matters.
No one can successfully deny the
fact that each county ought to have
a representative.
We are well aware of this fact
here in Morrow county. In the
matter of legislative representation
the News has expressed the exact
belief of the Gazette.
The source of lawmaking should
at all times be kept within the
bands of the whole people.
tttSTKICTI.Mi THE STATE,
rEte XJrangers of the state are
mw proposing a plan for redistrict
xing the state for legislative pur
leees bo that no district will elect
as: ore han one member, thus con
ifesttpleting the division of thickly
Kyopalated counties into as many
lijiricts as each has members of
rfislislatuie. If such an appor
"iknEient be made solely on popu
ifetioa, it will not remedy the
vfcrcebie ought to be relieved.
Tfeyiact is, that in a state situated
rfecKQregon is, with but a small area
Kcs-wliich population is congested,
- a : foasis of population alone is not
f'ffee true one for the best and most,
writable results. The idea of a
upreaentative system of govern
ment is to keep the source of law
was4arjg as close as possible to the
wijole people and to make combi
ratioDfl of special interests and
localities difficult and impractic-
TJie News believes that the basic
jjsriucjle of legislative representation-should
be one member of the
i Jwer house from each county in
the state, the surplus of the total
vtaeo.'bership of the House to be di--Tided
among the larger counties,
iajo county to be allowed more than
a&e-sixtb of the whole number.
"flChis would do away with three
l&ad features which now obtain,
?iz: the gerrymandering of tht
t state in its thinly settled portions
fnr political purposes; the trading.
i licvween counties where tnere are
more than ODe county in a district
Thr which not the best but the
most feasible geographical caudi-
idte is selected, and last and worst,
-Xi:e placing in one locality such b
-legislative power as can dictate b
jsombinations the entire policy of

The state senate fchould be pro-
- vided for in a similar way, allow-
do county more than one-tenth

coajpaet contiguous area of similar

The cause of the murders has been
Over two dissolute women who
have been parading under the dis
guise of respectability, but who iD
fact were not worth the powder
and lead that it took to kill their
paramours. In Astoria the cor
oner's jury went so far as to ex
onerate the murderer, with the ex
cuse of execution of unwritten law
to remove a despoiler of homes.
And now the Portland murderer is
offering the same defense. Port
land papers have recently devoted
considerable editorial space to the
dangerous unwritten law custom
It is time that something should
be said against such a dangerous
custom. The revolver is of very
