In adjoining columns on a pase of
the Sunday Orcgonian appear tho
headlines J'Whoat Supply Sufficient"
and "Whcatloss Period Dcgins To
morrow." For thoso who nro look
ing for an ;opportunlty to criticise,
tho two conflicting articles giro a
flno opening, but wo doubt If many
tako It. ' '
It appears that tho new order of
wheatlcss days in Oregon Is a stato
moasuro simply, and not ono of na
tional scope. Two other states havo
preceded us, in adopting a wheatlcss
reglmo and 'they havo dono so, as
wo are npw doing, on tho theory
that If it is a good thing to savo some
wheat It is. a better one to savo every
bit you can. That being so, no ono
will critlclso oven though somo of
ficial estimates' that thero Is suffi
cient wheat on hand. Ho may bo
wrong.
Wheat is pecded in England and
Franco. There Is no doubt of that.
They havo never, raised enough of
that grain nW of most other things
for their own consumption. Fur
thermore, at tho present time their
food production activities must be
considerably curtailed because of
their proximity Jo the theatre of
war and thlr tremendous losses of
man power.- Thcn, too, there Is in
France an 'increasingly great num
ber of Americans who must be fed
from home. All that takes wheat,
and .Oregon will gladly give her
share.
No qnq .wants anything hero until
be knows that the wants of our
allies ano),' p the troops In
trenchesarfl ,cared for.
tholr own party persuasion get them
nowhere and they aro beginning to
appreciate It. As It often happens
ono Democratic vote may cut con
siderable choeso in electing a He
publican president or speaker and
that vote, It It happens to land in
tho right place, might bo rewarded
with a fairly slzeablo plum in tho
committee line. And who wouldn't
vote for a Republican as long as
ono can got what one wants by doing
It, nnd Is certain to get what one
doesn't want by voting for a Demo
crat?
Who Im Treasurer?
Discussion of tho effect of tho
count will toll tho tale, mid until
that Is In It doesn't do much Rodd
to comment , on what may happen
with either ono or tho other named,
nut it is ono of tho two, anyway.

Referring to comment In The Bul
letin on the county division case,
J. J. Elllnger of Redmond, In April
1917, Wrote the editor as follows:
"By the time the final obsequies are
performed you will admit your at
torneys have been dealing with a
much alive corpse. The final post
mortem will be" read, not In Judge
Duffy's court at Prineville, but be-
Joro the supreme court of the state
of Oregon."- In view of Tuesday's
decision we shpuld say that Mr. El
Ilnger's "much alive corpse" had
been kept so by the modern oxygen
treatment in the shape of hot air.

IlKNDER DECISION.
Official returns of the state prl
mary election for tho county as re
ported by the canvassing board fall
to clear up the confusion over the
commlsslonershlp, for the four-year
term, and the matter has been sub
mitted to Attorney General Brown
for his decision, the canvassing board
refusing to Issuo certificates of nom
ination to any of the commissioners
until the matter had been cleared up
from the stato office.
In any event C. H. Miller is th,e
.nominee of the Democrats of the
county, having received a total of 36
ballots by being written in, and it
is likely that he will be issued a cer
tificate of nomination from this
party.
Tho official returns of the county
for the state offices show practically
tho same ! count on the votes as pub
lished by Tho Bulletin immediately
following tho primary election. Mc-
Xary's lead over Stanfleld In the

o.vpocts to return to thu private prc
tlco of law In Multnomah county,
Tho $1,500 a year as supremo Juilgo
dors not look very largo to him, as
his practice Is worth, nut, several
tliutis that amount annually and ho
Is unable to see why he should re
main. Tho Job as associate Justice,
or as chlof Justice for that matter, Is
un sinecure. Tho work Is exceeding
ly couilnlug not only In tho office
end, but In tho dally grind listening
to long winded arguments from at
torneys. Thu latitude give a su
premo court Justice Is very cnnHiilng,
his horizon being the court room on
ono side and tho ofllco on the othor.
It ran he n.ttd without fear of con
tradiction that Jutslco McCamant
has been ono of the best men who
has sat upon thu Oregon bench, and
whllo hs private practice uis been
largely carried on for great corpora
tlnus, none of that prejudice has
cropped out in his opinions, which
hnvo been eminently fair, ns Is ad
milted by nil who havo boon familiar
with them.
Warden Trouble. Settled.
Trouble which stnrtcd browing nt
tho state penitentiary when Deputy
Warden Burns disobeyed the orders
of Warden Murphy and placed a gun
guard In thu convicts' dlulu& room
twlco whllo tho warden was away
on n convict chase has been settled
nnd tho situation calmed down. Thu
governor went to tho prison, called
all of tho employes together and
talked turkey to them. Ho told them
Murphy Is on the Job at the huad of
affairs and his ordors . uiust bo
obeyed. Ha also reprimanded Burns,
with the result that ovoryono got to
gether, Burns said ho was sorry and
tho wholo trouble patched over.
Burns will stay on tho Job. He had
been told ho must resign by Juno 1,
and ho expressed himself as Juath to
resign.
.Murphy Im Human.
Some differences of opinion have
arisen as to tho prison management,
Warden Murhpy being Inclined to
treat tho convicts somewhat as
though thoy are human beings, while
others bellovo that the old swat-'om-In-tho-Jaw
method Is preferable.
How it will work ont remains to be
seen. So far tho Murphy method
has worked pretty well, and while
news of escapes sound largo In print,
tho fact of tho matter Is that Mur
phy's percentage of escapes Is no
larger than under tho old systom.
and maybe not as large as sometimes
under that plan.
.Miller Out of Rare.
Tho apparent defeat of Frank J.
Miller tor re-election to tho public
sorvtca commission may be a mirror
somewhat reflecting public sentiment
toward the commission. With no
campaign to speak of, Fred Williams
ran sololy on his slogan of "a Ccont
faro Is too much for a 6-cont rldo."
Williams was unknown savo In his
own community of Urania Pass and
as a rosult tho-doclslon may bo taken
as tho first round against'- the com
mission's C cent faro order. Of
course somo of tho votes for Wil
liams wuro from Miller's enemies,
and somo of them were from people
who didn't know either of tho can
didates and they voted as tho spirit
moved playing hunches, ns it wore.
But In tho main It may be consid
ered ns a rebuko to tho commission,
nnd chances aro that thu move to
abolish tho commission will bo ac
corded with wido public appioval In
November.
In fact, It has been learned that
tho candidacy of Williams was
largely predicated on tho action, in
Novo m bar, and that Williams only
about half expects to over bo a mom-

ber of tbo commission. Certain ele
ments In Portland who wlshrd to see
tho C-ceut faro Debt kept nllvo weru
opposed to having Miller's runomlna
tlou go by default and Williams was
put Into tho garao. They bulldud far
better than they knew for Ibelr own
cause, and It has been a rudo Jolt
to tbo friends of thu commission,
Olltlltl IWfllllH,
Along ultli tho ii-cont faro order
tho fact that tho railroads hnvo been
taken over by tho govorumuiit will
bo a big talking point against tho
commission on tho theory that tho
body has outlived Its usefulness. An
other big factor also enters Into the
situation. When tho commission
wns created It was created with tho
solo Idea In view of lowering rates
and keeping thorn lowered. No one
will dlsputo this who romumburs thu
public sontltnont at tho time, Of
courso thu acute mr ohortBge of 1000
figured uomowhat In tho sltuniion
and It must bo confessed that Urn
commission has aided materially In
combatting such shortages. Hut tho
main thing was tho high cost of
moving. Then utilities wero added
onto tho string with tho Idea of cut
ting down gas and electric rates, as
well as water rates. New conditions
havo now arisen. Prices for ma
terials and labor used by utilities
havo risen along with tho prices for
tho same commodities for prlvato In
dividuals and corporations. As a re
sult utilities want mora for their
services than they havo In tho past
tho amn uh Individuals and prlvato
corporation!) aro Increasing prlcoB on
bread, clothing, shoes ami othor
commodities. It bus been necessary
to grant many ot these rises. Thu
point Ih right thore, Whethor tho
commission has acted fairly or not
In granting tho Increases, the In
creasen havo boon granted, and they
hurt. Consequently many complain
thnl tho commission Is playing to tho
corporations and forgetting tho In
terests of tho public. Probably tho
commission nctd corroetly In grant
ing the Increases. Many say It has,
whllo many say It hasn't. Hut that
Is bfsldo tho fact that Is now being
brought homo, that thousands of
pnoplo ftn thu commission Is no
longer n body operating In tho In
terests of tho grnntost niimbi'r.
May Still Ilo Kepi Alius
This feeling will bo expressed forc
ibly at thu polls In November It tho
bill to do away with tho coin nil ml on
comes to u vote,
On tho other hand, referring again
to (ho voto for Williams, it may bo
that tho success of Williams will aid
to keep tho commission nllvo for
awhile yet. Many who voted for
Williams as n rebuko to thu, cummls
nlnnjs fi-cent faro order nilglit fuel
that' with Williams on thu Job and
the reason for his being thoro so
plainly inado known, that thu com
mission might doal from n now duuk
with tho return at Mr. Miller to pri
vate llfo. lr enough ot thorn feel
that way thoy might wait uwhllo to
boo what Williams would do with
tho C-cont faro matter. Hut at best,
it tho commission stays allvo until
Williams can go on tho first ot next
year, ho would bo but ono out ot
three. Tho other twd'hilght hnvo a
chnngn of heart In tho meantime.
Tho bust guess Is, howovor, that tho
commission will elthur bo abolished
In November or given such n closo
