Whatever hope there was that the legislature would refrain from attempted political reprisal agninst Gov ernor Tierce went glimmering on the opening day of the session, during the hour while the governor was reading his message. Than such a result nothing else was to be expected, for the executive piled up provocation on provocation in that document. Now the fruits are appearing, and they are a good deal as expected. There are bills in the making to nhnlish fhn ntnfn nrohihition department and the stato market agent's office;, to place the penitentiary under the state board of control, ana to taue irom tne guvemui and place with the legislature the appointment of the game commission, the fish commission, the port of Portland commission and the state insurance commis sioner. - , It is not certain that all these plans can bo carried to fruition by the governor's enemies. Ine executive iwill, of course, veto as many bills calling for such changes as are passed. To overrido the vetoes, 40 votes in the house and 20 in the senate will be necessary, Whether these numbers can be mustered for all of the measures of reprisal remains yet to be developed. The state prohibition department is an institution which in hands other than those of. the incompetent Cleaver would bo an efficient force for prohibition en forcement. But if no way can bo found to get rid of Cleaver except to abolish the department, tiien it may as well bo" abolished, because there is ample demonstra tion in the record tiat Cleaver will jungle everything he attempts. As totho state market agent, there ap pears little reason for continuing the office, as farmers themselves auite generally are said to favor its abolition, Attempts to take his lawful constitutional appoint ments out of the governor's hands are ill-advised at tempts and unworthy ones. If the legislature carries them through it will lay itself open to the very charge that has been laid with such good cause against the governor that of pernicious political activity. The legislature ought to occupy , itself with constructive rathor than vengeful efforts. . ' Why Youths Go Wrong. Everett Hill, international president of Rotnry, speaking before a northwest district gnthorhig of that organization in Portland a few evenings ago, made somo remarks concerning tho training and care of child ren that arc pertinent to tho general newspaper discus sion of tho case of 16-year-old Dorothy Elliugson, who slew her mother at San Francisco, beeauso the mother had objected to her "jazzing around" all night. Tho cause of juvenilo delinquency and juvenile crime is lack of parental guidance and control of child ren almost exclusively, declared Mr. Hill. For tho ap palling fact that most desperate crimes ore committed by mere boys and for the fact that the majority of in mates in 'ninny of our; penitentiaries nro below the age of 21 years, blame is directly traceable to tho parents who failed iu their tluly to know whero those boys wcro und what they were doing at all times while they were growing up. Because children nro not corrected while they aro little, they get beyond correction long before they arc grown. Too many woodsheds have been turned into garages, Mr. Hill, declared. Mayor Baker, of Portland, who himself has made n study of tho juvenilo 'problem and who has often made public addresses along exactly tho lines of what Mr. Jl ill said, heard tho Kotarinn president aud nodded vigorously at tho various points ho made." There is agreement not only between theso two but among all who have studied the problem, that the way to keep our youth going straight is to control our children before they become youths, to keep close to thorn and to know whero they are and what they aro doing at all times. It appears in tho caso of Dorothy Ellingson that she has been beyond parental control for somo time past, although sho is but 1C. But she could have been controlled while sho was little. Sho would havo stayed homo when sho becamo older if she had been tnught properly and watched closely whilo sho was vounger. That is tho lesson for parents in tho Dorothy Ellingson cuse. A farmers' meeting at Gresham adopted resolutions calling upon tho legislature to ratify tho federal child labor amendment, and also calling upon its own mem bers to keep a record of how members of tho legislature vbto on tho subject and to defeat thoso who voto ad versely if thoy run for offico again. There was marked division in the meeting over tho resolutions, but the fact that it was adopted contravenes plainly enough the theory of legislators from some of tho agricultural dis tricts that farmers generally aro against tho amendment. The Siuslnw harbor improvement appropriation is assured, according to word from Washington, and tho channel in the Lnno county harbor will bo dredged to a depth sufficient to obviate tho necessity of lighter ing lumber vessels. That will bo a good beginning, but tho ultimato possibilities for Siuslaw harbor develop ment aro much greater than tho present project con templates. In Colorado a stato prison investigation by Thomas Mott Osborne has revealed that convicts have been habitually flogged and confined in dark, unsanitary "coolers." Thomas J. Tynan .has been warden of the prison for sixteen years past. It is altogether unlikely that tho beginning of his cruelties has been recent. Nor is it likely that thy have been completely unknown to higher stato officials. Well may Colorado blush. his audience that the best thing thst they could do fur law enforcement would be to rcmora liquor from tbelr tobies at their homes, sod Its also cluiuied tbit America had never had such a good prospect of success aud prosperity es it hss today. It is more thso a coincidence that a man of Mr Gary's standing should so link UP prohibition with success end pros perity, ills wide eiperirnce in deal ing with men pieces him in a position where he can justifiably be looked up on as speaking with authority along this line. Newspaper Retail Prlos Freedom (Editor and Publisher) In a retail price that covers the physical cost of newspaper manufac ture sod distribution lies editorial freedom. There is not the slightest doubt that tbis Is a prime economic fact for every newspaper publisher to keep well in mind. Jn the whole realm of commerce nothing but newspapers is now trad ed in with the copper cent as tbs unit of measure. Nothing is so chesp, so accessible to every man in the street Tbis Is as it should be. The news paper must be available to the whole citizenship to remain true to its re sponsibilities. It is not expected that newspapers sbsll sell st copy prices which mske tuein absolutely dependent upon ad vertising. Whatever may have gone before, the present tendency is surely swsy from thst principle. In so far as this can be accomplished without the sacrifice of circulation (snd through such distribution the functioning of tho originsl ideas of a constitution ally guaranteed "free press") it is most certainly desirable from every point of view. Editor and Publisher commends the course of The New York- World and the Kansas City Star. Tbclr price ed vsnces were well justified. No hard ship is worked upon readers. And the economic position of both of these great newspapers better fortifies edi torial independence. o e II ARP MADTIM . i fscturinc company at Willamina causing a lose estimated at 1 10,000.

His election followed as a matter of course. He is not a representative of Wash ington. He is simply a money bag, and office adds to his pride. If he ever knew little children, he has forgotten: if he ever had sympathy for them, he bas lost it. He is wrapped up in his dollars snd it is a bad situation. In Lighter Vein o Bascom Tells One (Bultlmoro Sun) ' Bascom Slemp said at a dinner in Washington: 'A foolish man who keens out of politics because the thinks poljtlciana are corrupt was reading tho comic strips the other night when his young son ssld: "Top. what's political economy?' " 'Political economy,' tho foolish man answered, 'is er well, I guess political economy is the science of not buyin' sny more votes than you actually need.'

Strangely enoueh It never entered from totsl darkness and that the de vouring demon be compelled to drop it. Superstition was not confined, to the "lower classes" in the good old days, snd it is not confined to them now. That good, learned man, a true American patriot of the seventeenth century, Increase Nather who wrote the "Essay on Remarkable Providenc es" observed au eclipse of the sun and believed it was intended to express the grief of nature at the death of President Cbsuiicey of Harvard col lege. He was mistaken. The sun and nature didn't even know that Chau eneey v?ns dead. That shows how far men wonder from the truth, and they merely gUCBS, ' How much do you think the United States is worth, all together, in thousands of millions of dollars. . According to the census bureau, all the property in tho United Stales three yenrs ago amounted to about: 00,803.b02,IHK). That means B20 times one thoneaud milliou dollars, with 803 miliums to spare. It's a greet deal of money, but you niuy bo aure that it's much less tlinn tho I'nlted States is worth. Properly developed, the state of Texas will lie worth more than the total "wealth of the United States" as now estimated.
