Governor And Legislature.
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.

they could do fur law enforcement
would be to rcmora liquor from tbelr

such a good prospect of success aud

thso a coincidence that a man of Mr
Gary's standing should so link UP
prohibition with success end pros

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.

He It Wrong
(Salem Statesman)
The governor of Washington is
very frantic about the child labor
amendment. lie belongs to the mil
lionaire class and he was su accident
in politics. lie has tried for years to
be goverpbr but finally on what look
ed like a reactionary wave he man
aged to skin through by a few votes
in the primary. 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.

The door to Nancy's room opened
suddenly and she came running nut

Her face was deathly white.
"Oh, Mrs. Armour!" she cried,
wringing her hands.
"Where is Kent?" I demanded.
"Oh, Mrs. Armour." was all she
said, and she started to cry and
shrank back from me as I caught her
roughly by the shoulder.

kept turning her face away from me.
I was frantic. I yelled at her. I

Then I tried to get Kent on the.

I rushed hack to Nancy. She was
standing by th. kitchen window. As
she turned toward me I saw a look of

It's a greet deal of money, but you
