The busy bee finds it rather dry picking, seeking a living at this season of the year. for county courU, circuit Judges who would decide where roads shculd 1 built. We gravely douM f the supreme court, having abol ished the dictation of county cr.irts, would hold tr commission subject to the dictation of circuit judges in laying out the highways of the state. Just what constitutes a living i'ge is a live question just now. Shoe workmen in an eastern city recently requested an advance of $18 per week. This little increase hich seems so trivial now as to become a margin in a wage dis pute was at one time a pretty fair total for the payment for a weeks' labor. With den.and taking all that production car. offer each call ing is setting! its own limits and nothing is ) exorbitint but that plausible reasons of overhead, costs and future ur.ceitamties can be brought forward to justify it. The law of compensation Is a two-edged (fair however, and deals with neg atives as well as affirmative. A reputation for rapacity made now in the time of people's neces sity will react in the day when a larger choice of service is offered. If the quakes continue they will have to build houses in LosAngeles of India rubber for special places of refuge for the timid. The speed and ability with which ths Pendelton escaped prisoners were rounded up and caught should have a salutary effect in discourag ing future outbreaks. Besides the things which the sad waves say the editors who assemble soon at Astoria are planning to say a few things themselves. The remarks which Judge Staple- t)n remarked to Attorney Kaste ought to have jarred the tatter's Teutonic complacency, if such a thing were possible. We wonder if Americans are good enough sports that they would have bought tea of a triumphant Lipton as they will of a vanquished Lipton. Our Dallas contemporaries- ap pear to be quite net up over highway developments. . It is to be noted that it is always the man who realizes he has the weak side of the argument who resorts to ',loud and abusive language. They say highways are bad for the communities they tap as where they prevail everybody gets in ev erybody s car and goes to the oig towns to do trading. It surely is surprising how cities long to com mit commercial suicide in this man ner.

A' ter eight years of brigandage Villa has surrendered on a plea of clemency. With the spoils of eight active years, he doubtless has suificient to care for his declining days. The prospect is the election this fall will hinge on a choice in the personality of the candidates and associations with the parties mass ed behind each. Nothing has so far transpired to indicate that the principles advocated by the two great parties differ a great deal. Read your own Herald $T That sentiment in the sta'e at lfrge is with the highway commis sion in its plan for building the state roads on a systematic plan is evident to 'everyone who has taken the trouble to investigate. There is also reason to be hopeful where the supreme court is concerned, for the court in its decisions has shown a disposition to look at the welfare of the state broadly and not stop at technicalities. Two opinions have been had of the road situation in Polk county, one by Attorney General Brown and the other by Judge McCourt. Both were based on technicalities as to just what action by the commission would satisfy the letter of the law Judge Stapleton, it is evident, might have come to a still different conclusion. In the Riddle case the court ruled the commission must not be hampered by conflict with the opinions of county courts. Judge McCourt would substitute S'imner Ostrom was studying electricity and had a wireless outfit in operation. L. Grounds and Chas.
