Portland Journal. The red-lettered metropolitan paper it none too considerate of outside counties though it he the Blue Ribbon county of the state. The mother state Nor mal is located in J'olk county, but it is no more a local insti tution than is the Lewis and Clark Fair to be held in Mult- nomah county. The insinua tion that Polk county is bend ing every energy for an appro priation for the Normal SchooH merely because it is located in Polk county is incorrect. Of course the Polk county , delega tion favors an appropriation for the school but it will not fore go everything else for such ap propriation. Polk county is in terested in an appropriation for all the state institutions. She is interested in an appropriation for the Lewis and Clark Fair and for the Boys and Girls Aid Society though located in Mult-1 nomah county. The value and influence of none of them is cir cumscribed by county boundary lines; or if they are they should be cut off. The influence of the State Normal is certainly shared by every county in the state The School now has a powerful alumni association and a big per centage of the teachers of the state received their training here. In educational circles, graduates of this school occupy SX prominent place. This is evi Jenced by their numbers in the : State Educational Association; in various state schools and in the list of county superintend- - ents as well as in the graded - schools of the state. , With the . amount of appropriation meted -out to it the State Normal at Monmouth has accomplished greater results than can be shown by any state school in the country. Even now with a good attendance, loyal teachers and enthusiastic students, the Rchool is scrimping along with out a dormitory. The legis lature should see that a dormi tory is built this year, and the needs of the school in every re spect should be cheerfully met right after being put. The im. pn-sMoii prvvulU Hull tvuaui Farrar did not change allegi ance to candidates of ins own volition and that a pressur from without was brought to bear with him. What that pressure was, it is useless to discuss but it was suggested by the Senator from Tolk and while editona hv the column and ha column is being awarded Sen tnr Croison and Farrar, Sena tor Loughary should also have nuraflranh or two oil the same basis.

No man has served the politic machine, or the powers that b mor faithfully at this seion than Senator. Brownell. He delivered the votes from county in both house and senate thut maile thintrs cro. and he has o w taken a back seat Senator Rrownell had it iu hit power to mar the program at th most critical point of the perlorui ance but he refrained. If there is a political machine i Orffnn it owes Brownell a debt of ------- gratitude, a debt to be payed by passing resolutions. Will Brownell be made governor or be sent to congress or the United States aen&ie? What will the machine do tor Brownell? In the mean time watch what Browoell will do with the machine He can be trusted with the com- mou people at all limes. Capital Journal.

TJoforrinor to the election of a president of the senate af ? a two days struggle, the ' Statesman goes off on a tangeu. of ifness to say: "If Senator Farrar is deserv ing of a half column commen datory editorial for getting right after being wrong for two days, if he was wrong, why is not Sen ator Croisan entitled to a full column of praise for being right all the time, if he was right? And since the Statesman would reward State Senators with editorial space, the amount of space to be in proportion- to ' their Tightness, it should allot a stick or two to Senator Lough ary of Polk county. If Senator Farrar is to have a half column for pettinz rieht, if he was right, Senator Ixughary is entitled to fully as moch for putting tbe Marion Senator right, if he wai CaredillsMlrorftbamatja "My mother has been a sufferer for many years from rheumatism," ay W.

It is In the nature of a canvass for tele phone subscribers, and has been in nronress for a week. Toth com panies are engaged in the canTis, anl thm air ii full of the SUloke of the skirmishes. It is understood that in order to get subscribers, the bell people are offering phones n some instances free for a few months, in other cases at greatly reduced rates and in any other way in order to locate a bell phone n th house. The mimosa of course is to drive the Independent system, if possible out of business, and then raue the fees back to the old price that was threatened just before tbe advent of the new coin- nanv. to-w t: per montn. C r ' - Editorially, the Tunes adds "Just before the Independent tele phone system came to Corvallis, tbe old company published a notice, stating that the rates on all new phones would tbereaAer be 1.25 per month. In th tele phone fight that ia now in pro gress, various persons are onerea Bell phones at very low rates, in some instances free. The present effort of the Bell to drive tbe new company to t&e wall, so that there will be no cowpxrliton in I hi eld. J it not setf-reervirtiv nder tk circumsttMiee, for the people of Corvallis to-stay with the new company? WkU H be better stand fey and protect and m at tain the new system, or will it bw better to jpin with the- Bdl for de struction ef the In&peadent, so the Bell cr have the- fteid all So itself and vat up rates- 99 it pro posed to dbj tie t before the Inde- ndent company casae? "Corvallfo has probably the beet telephone system of any town of it . That i be tostimetay of all the- strangers bo have seen the- EtMfependent system. Sk is a system and service fa aoperior to-tha4 of any ther town in Oregon, It is at feature for Corvaliieitea to show to strangers when they oona to the Fair nexb summer, ae one of the attractions of Corvallis as a home city. Loeal busiaesa men as heavy owners in tie system, and to stand in with the Bell phone in taw present fight by subscribing for its phones,, in to stand in against eur own people, against our own capital, against our own town. Let tke Bell have tbe long dis tance but give all tbe local pusu ness to the Independent that ahrMald be. and in the motto of everr Corvalfisite who stands first and always lor his own people and bis own town.
