Governor Pierce often tells his friends and political associates that the press ot Oregon makes things Ultra tor lnm. The press, the governor wouiu imvo uie pumic believe, is responsible for the failures of his administra tion. He says the newspapers do not give Lira a square ileal. Let Governor Pierco set this down as fact, for it is ' fact: The nress of Oregon has just now saved the gov crnor a very severe trouncing indeed. The proposal to shear the icovernor ot power and patronago by trans 1'erring them to the custody of u proposed enlarged stale emergency board is dead. The press of Oregon killed it. The-obsequies have not been said, but. there is little pros pect ot resuscitation. That proposal originated among members 'of the Jecislaturo. Three weeks ago it was rather lornuaaDie, It wis" wrong in equity, wrong in principle and wrong under the construction. But there was intent to carry it through at the forthcoming session. The press arose with practical unanimity and scotched it.' There is no pretense that friendship for Governor 1'ierce motivated the majority ot the press in all tins t was just a matter of plain, homely fairness, good faith and good sense. . Those are quito generally the consider ations by which the press is guided in important mat ters. 'The governor, who habitually lets political con siderations sway him in what ho does, would do well to ponder all this a little; . , . : The Case of Mr. Kid McCoy. i Have no fears for Mr. Kid McCoy,' erstwhile ex ponent of the degree of the black eye and the bloody nose, but moro recently iiplifter of the dramatic art as depicted m celluloid. True, Mr. McCoy is on trial charged with murder. But they haven't proved it. And here is tho point: The trial is at Los Angeles and in Los Angeles they do not punish oven proved murder when the murderer either sex is charming. Now Mr. McCoy unquestionably is charming. There is propt positivo ot it. Was not Mr. McCoy husband to - a succession of eight wives, each of whom he must have won through his own splendid qualities of person and mind? And was ho not cnvalier-gallant to a score or so of other ladies, each of whom, in his own chaste languge, flopped for him! Of course hp was. True there have been in history somo few men of even greater demon- ( strnted success with the ladies. There, for instance, was Solomon, who had 600 wives and a staff of 300 other 1 lovely young feminine persons who, pno supposes, assisted in frying his eggs and darning his socks but who were known by a title less lovely than that of wedded help n.cet. But Solomon, let us remember, was a king, lie didn't have to win them. He just went out and took them. Mr. McCoy hnd to win all of his. And who shall say that but for tho unfortunato intervention of the - cr, accident which resulted in his being led away to jail, Mr. McCoy might not 'handicapped though he was with the lack ot royaj prerogative liavo equaled the record of tho mighty king. But we wander a little. Wo must get back to Los Angeles. Wo had started in' to ronssuro tho public, which wo know has been lying awake nights worrying about Mr. McCoy. Ho will 'not '-bo- convicted. Or if ho is ho will not slay convicted. Los Angeles will see to that. Tut he is suffering terribly. Why, the news dispatches tell us that sinco ho has been in jail Mr. McCoy has been almost completely deprived of all tho little comforts so necessary to ono of his peculiar tem perament. Strong - drink has been cruelly withheld from him.. Not once has ho been allowed to "make a night of it." Only occasionally has he been served with poultry or French pastry. Ho has had but one or two small portions. of palo do foio gras during tho entire period of his confinement. Ilo has not been allowed to beat anyono up, not even a jailer. Ho has 'oven been deprived ot the society ot ladies and still worse they have been deprived of his society. Tho terrible results of all this lmv.e become apparent upon Mr. McCoy. His eyes have almost completely lost that fashionable suf fused and bleary look which is so much .affected in Hollywood society,. His equatorial circumlTireneo is so reduced that they have hnd to take a liberal luck in his trousers waistband. The patrician softness of his flesh lias given way to a hardening of somo of his muscles. Hi even sleeps regularly. Ho. has bce.omo indeed a pitiable spectacle. And for what! AVhy, for nothing at all. Mr. Mc Coy himself says ho has done nothing and ho ought to s know. When lie Was first arrested Mr. McCoy, to be 'sure, was under tho impression that ho had killed n lady and he told a few people so. Hut he soon realized that ho had committed an error of statement and ad mitted it. Did tho pfilice accept, his frank and manly recantation and set him free? They did not. They in carcerated him. Yes, sir, llny put him in jail. Aud thcyjiavo even dragged into the ease disclosures wholly irrelevant, such as showing that the lady who was slain had been taken from her husband by Air. McCoy, and that Air. McCoy had sometimes been forced to chastise her ns a matter of discipline, and that somo of her val uables and her husband's had been found in Mr. Ale Coy's strong box. Trifling matters, each of them. What have they to with a murder charge? The world vill await breathlessly his vindication and the inevitable opening of the Los Angeles county jail doors outward for AIn Kid McCoy. cause it la available. Tliey refuse to regard public fundi as tuny would their own private funds. Tbe little economies, essential to large savings, ure consistently disregarded. By this departure from tbe conven tlonai procedure President Coolidn baa given bis subordinates a valuable and needed object lesson, which should do more to encourage economy in ad ministrative circles, than any number oi nicely worded messages on tbe sub ject. For Economy. (Salem Statesman) A careful scrutiny of every depart ment of governmenta indicates that t resident Loolidge has the heartv co operation of his administrative asso ciates, in every department there is a demand for economy. There is a fia urine to see who can make tbe most saving. the public will not talc VinrfU however to the proposition to Increase the postage rates but the postage rates are high enough and there ought to De more economy in that depart ment instead of adding to it. Of course it is developing but everybody writes leuera and everybody pays postage. However witb that exception every branch of the government ia doing lie best to lower taxes instead of ruin ing them. Progressive and Conservative (Albany Herald) J DO BllleUl.

By KATHERINE MOORE Author of "Love" COMMENT OF THE PRESS KENT TELLS HIS STOHY Chapter SO The diamond was bark. Victor Larhman had it ! A great overwhelming thankfulness rushed over me at Kent's words. Now I knew wbat it was that made Kent ill. I knelt down on my knees in front of him and, putting my two arms around him, buried my he.nd in his lap. I clung to him tightly. 1 was so thankful, so very thankful. Then nil at once I wondered how lie had gotten the diamond back, and if he hnd been successful. Could It bo that Victor Ijirhmnn knew th truth had Kent been forced to tell him? Mn.rbo that was why Kent felt ill. Fear gripped my heart. X looked up into his face, and his eyeso met mine and looked down lov ingly at inc. How? How did you do it?" 1 questioned. "Come here up here, ou the arm of my chair." Kent answered. "I don't like you to bo down thero at my feet, dearest." And then Kent told me. "1 had been trying to decide to thing of some way to do for days and days. Then suddenly I thought about the mnp that map of South! America that he took out of hia pocket to show me the night he drop ped the diamond. The diamond must all the things that might happen if I failed.

Lnchmnn told me that tho map was home at his hotel. 'It's in a drawer of the desk,' he ex plained. 'I haven't used it lately. Hut wo have a big hanging niny of South America here in the office mno around and use that,' he snid. "Hut 1 though in time," Kent went on. "I said I couldn't nossihlv ei away from the office, and I askeil him if I sent a boy up to the hotel would he have his wife let the boy bring ine may nown to me .' "He did. He telephoned to Mrs. Lachman and in about a half hour I had the map In my office. As Kent talked on my heart beat wildly with the excitement nf the thing.

Time will locate President Cool- idge's place .in history. He is one of our few thin presidents. Excepting Woodrow Wilson, he is the only thin president we have bad for a long time.

They are demo cratic in this city. The president came to see the Inter, national Livestock "Exposition. That interests him. He says it shows what tho fsrmers arc doing, as the light in tho electric bulb in the Drake hotel shows tbe bard work that men tire doing in a big power plant far away.

All the atree:s were lined wiin people cheering him. Some time for blocks nt a time the sidewalks were blocked with colored men and women, they cheered and President f'oolidge's smile was the same for all the different crowds. COTTAGE GIIOVE.
