There is pathos in the contest
being waged by girls in Tort
land against a telephone cor
poration. The girls are on &
strike but they , are conducting
it with the decorum that is be
coming their sex. No violence
is being used nor is the safety of
imported girls who fall their
places imperiled or threatened.
The pathetic phase of the situa
tion lies in the inequality of the
contestants in the strife. A cor
poration with funds at its com
mand on one side and depend
ent girls with their meagre
monthly salary of about $25, cut
oflf, on the other. No wonder a
stockman, observing the situa
tion, told the girls to draw on
him for $1000; a business man
contributed $100; another a like
sum. The greater wonder is
that it is necessary for the girls
to' fight their own cause un

Help in the big department

ence of underpaid wages in de

brought to the attention of the
public by Henry McGinn when
he sued a big department store
in behalf of one of the mis
treated girls in that store. It
was shown that many work for
$20 a month and that they were
actually informed there were
ways of selling themselves to

Ira L. Campbell, editor of the

Mr. Campbell was one of the
nioueer newspaper men of Ur

his part in the building up

Lane county and 4G years' of age.
For the past two years he had

A jury returned a verdict of
"not guilty" in favor of the
Salem Journal in the action for
damages in the sum of $5000
for an alleged libelous article
detailing the manner in which
the Chif 6f Poliece Gibson drag
ged a dog to the pound. It's
hard to convict an editor who
spends a whole summer at New
port in white duck trousers and
is a charter member of two
bank organizations, as rrother
Ilofer is.
Since the attempt was made,
it is to he regretted that the pro
hibition provision did not get
on the ballot in Polk county,
this year. None can object to
the decision of a majority of the
people. -
