Women's organizations are all for it. Many church organizations are for it. Organ izprl lnhnr 5r for it. Was ever there more thoroughly representative or more widely varied support for any measure! Yet, so far as Oregon is concerned, the federal child labor amendment is to bo rejected. A majority in the legislature is against it. Three months ago the amendment would havo been ratified in Oregon. The amendment is the same now as it was then. Why, then, will it be rejected nowt i This arrears to bo the answer: Its friends have taken too much for eranted and havo not been campaign ing actively. Its enemies havo, meanwhile, beon very, very active. They havo campaigned both incessantly and effectively. Now its friends are becoming aroused, but it is too late. They might, by concentrated effort get action oy the legislature put over to the next session, or they might get tho amendmont referred to the voters, but there is no hope for ratification by this legislature. - The Guard, which believes it has devoted more space and etiort to support or tne amendment man any. other Oregon newspaper, has no regrets, because it believes thoroughly in tho amendment and thinks it should be ratified in Oregon and by thte nation. If it were convinced that the verdict about to be registered by tho legislature was representative of the will of the voting majority in Oregon, or that tho impendingNinani mous negative vote of tho Lane county delegation repre sented tho majority of opinion in this county, it would be fully satisfied to accept the verdiot, but its opinion is that tho contrary is true in both cases. Nevertheless, while not satisfied with tho outcome, The Guard is en tirely serene. Abe Margin Revives "East Lynne." In Tho Guard of yesterday the Abo Martin artist gave Abe as a background a villago theater bulletin board, inscribed "East Lynne" with tho additional in formation that it was tho 71st time for tho play, . One can always get a grin out of Abo Martin and whnt he Riiys, but in this case there was more than a grin in the little cartoon. It was rominiscont. , Back in tho days of tho spoken drama, when "the legitimate" .was tho voguo and one iolt called upon to explain himself when ho attended anything so frivolous as comio opera or musical larco, "Jiiust Jjynno" was in tho heyday of its popularity. Those wero tho days when a great many theatergoers onjoyod themselves host whon they wept most. Tearful plays, which appealed to tho emotions were tho popular plays, and in this respect "EaRt Lynne" was a lull portion. ' What feminino thoater-goor of 25 to 40 yours ago can even at this distauce recall tho dopth of woo of the nnfortunato Lady Isabel (Madam Vino in tho lust act) without involuntarily renching for her pocket hand kerchief What youth of that dhy but ached to Kpring over tho footlights and get his hands upon tho villinnous Sir Francis Levinson t Who can recollect without a stirring of tho emoiiona, the singing of Iho beautiful "You'll Remember Mo," first by tho Lady Isabel and then by Barbara Hare, her Miueebsor as tho wife of Sir Archibald t Or the deathbed scene in which Sir Archibald drops on his knees in prayer as Lady Isabel expires! It was anything but a "happy ever after" finish. , For a period' of some 25 years ending at about the time when motion pjcturo development began to attain proportions, any slock theater manager who found himself facing u sheaf of unpaid bills and a lean box office (ill, invariably recouped .himself by ono of two alternatives. He put on "East Lynne" or ho gave his public a week of "Undo Tola's Cabin." Either was euro fire and" did tho work, for peoplo always flocked to seo and to pay their money for seeing, cither. "East Lynne" would never do for a motion picture play, because of its lachrymose- and somber termination. Everybody knows that a motion picturo play must end happily or bo foredoomed to failure. But that is noth ing to criticize. It merely shows, by comparison with tho "East Lynno" era, that tho public tasto is changeable. They used to threaten bad little boys and girls by saying that tho policeman would como and get them. Tho personality of a policewoman has no such terror as that, to judgo by tho report of Mrs. M. A. Ady, Eu- feno polico matron, concerning hor season's activities. Irs. Ady fulfills moro the rolo of an angol of mercy than that of minion of the law. Right Rev. William Montgomery Brown, deposed Episcopal bishop in Arkansas, is not to be blamed be cause ho found that his honest thinking had led him away from tho teachings of tho church which ho had so long followed. What ho is to bo blamed for is staying in that church after ho had found out that ho could no longer subscribo to its doctrines. '"" Whether tho mountain shall bo called Rainier or Tacoma will always bo a tense and vibrant issuo around Puget sound and no congress nor anybody else will ever Bottle it for keeps. To those of us who live anywhere south of Centralia-Chehalis tho wholo subject is tire some, boresoino and, in its pcrennielism, fearsome. sanity eiperta, but would confine themselves to such expenditure a the local liar association should approve. They kept their word. The iiar as sociation lias approved, as "a reason able total professional fee," of Ibe payment of 130,OUO to counsel for ibe defense. The "difficulty of the Questions raised, and the professional skill of counsel, and also the out come of the trial," are held to justify this payment. Without questioning this decision, no one can have failed to remark up on it that the ordinary murderer bss no 1130,000 to hire counsel of aucb "professional skill," or money to pay so many experts as were hired for Leopold and Loeb beyond tbia areat sum. Clarence Darrow, of counsel, conaucteq the esse upon advanced standards of social justice. The diifi culty of applyim those standards in other cases will be apparent to every reader. The Normal (Salem Ntatesniani In time there will be three normal scnoois. one at Monmouth, one at Rioinutn I tUls or Ashland, and one at I'endletton or LaUrar.de.13ut at the present time the one at Monmouth is entirely able to take care of all the needs of the state If it is properly cared for. If It la not properly cared for it will mean starvation all around. We had better have one real school and have it well fed than to bare three starvlings. The state normal at Monmouth la functioning splendidly, except that it docs not have money enough to meet its requirements. In time the state will outgrow one nor mal school, but there are a good many reasons to believe that that time is not yet. Protect the Children , (Marabfield News) news dispatches from the state bouse at Salem truthfully predict that one ot the few storms of the legisla'ure'now In session will center snout the proposed child labor amend. ment to the federal constitution. That this should be true is an nn fortunate reflection upon the oro. gresslve thought of the state and its legally selected representatives, , Oregon has only one oath to follow. It is the path designated by those manly virtues which provoke .kindly attentions to those dependent upon us. It is the path that leads to un qualified ratification of this federal constitutional amendment. We are committed in Oregon to a program of better schools, better teachers, better babies, better moving pictures and better milk and food for growing children. Wo take these precautions to safe guard the younger generation and we add a child labor law. For ourselves, we do not need tbe child labor amendment and the antici pated legislation which will follow its ratification. We did not need the eighteenth amendment to make prohibition the law In Oregon, but we did need it to keep liquor from wet states out 'of Oregon. We endorsed the eighteenth amend ment because we wanted other states to feel tbe beneficial effects of pro hibition. The same arguments apply to the child labor amendment. The product of children's labor. inployed in other states under un sanitary conditions tind modern peon age, is not wanted in Oregon In coin petition with Oregon made goods or In homes where child labor Is offen sive to the high morel sense thst re gards tbe employment of children, under certain circumstances as fail ure to fulfill the stowsrdship of lives entrusted by the Creator to our core.

"Isn't it flue, Bobs? What do you think you really liked beat best of anything about tho place?" ho ues. tlooed With boyish pleasure. "Let's see " I mused, shutting my eyes a minute nud visualizing a men tal picture of it all. "I think I loved that old apple-tree by the side of the plana. It looked so quaint and pro tecting, the wny its twisted branches lean toward the house. Do you think it will bear apples and have blossoms on it ill the spring?" 1 asked with Joyful anticipation. Kent laughed happily and caught bold of my hand. 'Ore, Rubs, you re a regular kidl I hardly knew there was au apple tree in the yard." 'Of course I loved the house too. all of It," I declared. pressing- bis haud reassuringly. "What did job like about it, dear?" I returned. Well, I liked it all too, Hab. The fireplace took my eye. It's a dandy. And then did you notice what a fine furnace there was in tbe eel, lar?" ho enthused, his brown eyes shining brightly- "Now. Kent, that's as funny as the apple-tree," I teased. "Who would ever think of liking the furnace? I hardly noticed It at all eicrpt to think that it looked very uuinterestlng." "It's practical and sensible any way," he declared. Yes, I guesa it is, but an apple tree is beautiful and artistic," I said laughingly. "I wonder if I should enthuse most about the kitchen, dear," I suggested a trifle self-con-Clouity. "Not a bit of It, Babs." be declare ed vehemently. "That will be Nancy's special domain and we won't mind If she does a little enthusing over it. he Commanded most earn- dearest," est l.r. "Yes, Kent," I auswered, "but I won't havo you spending too much tlmo In the cellar, even If you are in lovo with the furnace," I teased. "Anyway I might get jealous of it." Then suddenly my thoughts flew back to Kent Jr. and I wondered It he was getting along all right with Nancy.. I wondered If he had missed me, and Just what ho would say when we got back. I longed to bug him to my heart again. "What's the trouble? You look an serious, dear," Kent Interrogated sud denly. He leaned over and searched my face with questioning brown eyes. I thought how much the baby's ryes were use ins as I looked Into them. "I wns Just thinking of our boy, and wishing we wero borne with him,1' I answered. 1 diil not want to tell Kent bow strangely worried I was. "You are not worrying?" he ques tioned, with a shadow of a dnuM across his own face. I found it diffi cult to keep even my thoughts hid den from him. "N no," I said slowly, trying to force a smile to my lips. Why should I worry him I thought to myself, when, perhaps, my own foolish fears were ungrounded. "All right, what shall we take home to the boy?" he asked. 1 knew he sensed my anxiety and wanted to turn my thoughts to other things, "Let's get some flowers, dear, he loves them so." I told him smilingly. "And very soon perhaps be can have a little flower garden of his own." 1 aded happily. I caught Kent's hand and squeeard it tightly under rover of the newspaper which lay across bis knees. I'urlng the remalner of the trip we talked of other things, and I tried to stifle my foolish forebodings, but again and again they would rvme rushing over me with a sudden sick ening sensation of the hesrt. I was indeed thankful when the train glided vetch and clover crops were badly damaged by the recent period of cold xteatber. Frank II. Bhephard, who clme to Corvallia and O. A.

In Kansas there Is excitement about Governor Davis, accused of selling pardons and paroles of prisoners. The governor's son, accused with him, con fessed to accepting $1250 aa a bribe. ijftcr detectives trapped and caught him. e Governor Davis, who now leaves the governorship, has an unusual rec ord in the way of pardons, including murderers, bank thieves and others. The charge is made by the local offi cials that such pardons were bought and paid for. Proof, of course, has not been given. This interests people outside of Kansas. You will remem ber that Governor Davis was a very prominent candidate for the demo cratic nomination for president last time. He ran ahead of John W. Davis for fifty ballots. Whatever the cause for Mr, Hughes' resignation, this is certain, President Cooildge .intends to tske care of the entire job to which the people elected him, not merely one small end of it. He studied the American constitu tion inside a New England farm house long and knows that he is the man in charge. He is head of the army and navy and proposes to have that understood. He is responsible for United Stales ealings witb foreign nations and in tends to carry tbe responsibility. There ia no doubt up to this mo ment - an enormous majority of the people; of the United States believe hey were fortunate when they elect ed Mr. Cootidgo vice-president in 1020, and thus got him for president in 1321. e Politicians are busy "explaining" the' resignstion of Mr. Hughes as sec retary of state. One guess says. "He iutends to run for president next ime and feels that he ought to retire in advance from President Cool- Igc's cabinet." Another guess Is Chief Justice Taft, whose health is not good, in tends to retire and Mr. Hughes is to be appointed to the supreme bench, which he left to run against Woodrow Wilson." As usual, probably both guesses will provo to be wrong. - Lumber Production Exceeding Demand One hundred and eighteen mills re porting to West Coast Lumbermen s association for the week ending Jan- sry 10th, manufactured IKS.Iwn.W! feet of lumber: sold TU.UI'J.OOS feet; nd shipped SK.tMXt.u 10 feet.
