such tremendous importance that one
eouM well wish It might be settled
without meddling and scheming by the
MdiMn Influences of eetnahnesa and

to some extent a partisan Question,

mation of Interest and value to the
motorist, the first number of "Moto-
road" ia at hand. It is a splendid pub
Ucatioa and should be in the hands of
every Oregon motorist. On the cover
page a beautiful scene along the Colum
bia River Highway is appropriately
framed ia an automobile tire. The
leading article la by Leslie If. Scott,
son of the great Oregon editor of hon
ored memory. Am interesting statis
tical article by M. a W ilk ins shows
that Umatilla county has 1113 cars or
on for twenty-one people owning
more ears-ta proportion to ita popula
tion than any other Oregon county,
with the single exception of Sherman.
Sherman has only 20 automobiles, but
these average one to nineteen people.
The entire state has one car to 36.8
people. The "Mutoroad" editor is
Charles W. Myers, a former Walla
Walla and PSndleton newspaper man
and later with the Oregonlan, who ia
thoroughly well qualified for his, new
duties. Mr. Myers is a ton-in-law of
the lata Judge llartman.

The Oregonian and the Journal
are on opposite aides of the water
I power question. ; They are on opposite
sides of every question of general im
portance. They are only a unit when
it comet to boosting some Portland
event like the Rose Carnival or Buyers'
week. ..
The Oregon ian contends that the
Ferris bill would hinder rather than
help the development of the great
water power resources of the West
line Journal strongly asserts that
I private interests seek vested and
perpetual control of water powers
through state as opposed to federal
legislation. Singularly enough, the
I time-honored doctrine of "state's
rights' ia thus indirectly opposed by
the Journal and favored by the Ore-
goiuan. The Journal further claims
that the recent convention at Portland
which resolved against the Ferris bill
was packed in the interests of "Big
Business," and that it is doubtful if
toe disinterested delegates were even
acquainted with the provisions of the
Ferris bill, copies of which were not
available at the session. Its views are
epitomized aa follows:
"Power interests and nnliturUna an

NEW TKJfi'KKA.VCE CAMPAIGN.
(Exchange.)
New Tork la on the Job with a new
temperance campaign, which some
newspapers are pronouncing eminent'
sensible. It is the outgrowth of a
plan originated by ' the Churches of
Christ of America. No religious metn.
od wilt be used in the campaign. No
effort will be made, to secure legisla
tion prohibiting the sole of liquor.
The sponsors of the movement believe
that voluntary abstinence to the only
means by which Intemperance may be
abolished, and their purpose will be
to demonstrate to the Individual the
loss In efficiency due to excessive
drinking. A committee of 100 prom
ineat financial. Industrial end labor
union men will conduct the campaign.
Albert R. Rogers, an organiser well
known for his work in connection
with the 8t Louis World's fair. Is he
active head of the movement. '
Regarding the movement a commit
tee tnember has this to say: "The ar
gument which has won us support
among Industrial leaders ts that this
Is sa entirely 'common sense' propo
sition, carried on with the most mod
ern Ideas of administrative efficiency.
We shall make no use of the 'heart
throb' stuff or emotionalism of any
kind. What we shall do la to show
every one we can reach that If he
drinks to sxceas he Is reducing his
anility st making a living."
New Tork newspapers are welcom
ing the new movement on the ground
that It Is a thankless task to attempt
to elevate social standards by panel ng
radical laws. Ohio already haa taken
up the new movement, and a society
along the same lines has been organ
ized in Cleveland. -
