A MERITORIOUS VETO When Governor Wilhycombe plac ed a veto upon the bills increasing the numtx-r of judicial districts and the conacquent increase of judges, he did something which will 1* en dorsed by a vast majority of the people of Oregon. Our legislatures of the past have I wen largely dominated by the in fluence of the legal profession and, as a result, the interests of lawyer» have ever been protected and car«! for by <>ur legislators. t inly a few years ago I.I' m hi was regarded ns a good -alary for a judge and some of the best legal talent the state a forded in the |«»t have honored the circuit and supreme trenches for that sum. ftiere was no trouble to get our m<wt learned lawyers to wear the judicial ernime just prior to the date when our legislature very kindly added the fourth thousand dollars to their salaries As the lawyers and legis lators know, the people would not stand for a further increase. Th«- plan of decreasing the amount of work required of the judge has been adopted. Only a few years ago the Third Judicial district was composed of five counties, via. Linn. Marion, Polk, Yamhill ami Tillamook. Judge Koine presided over the courts of these counties for many years and in a manner most satisfactory to the people. Many of his discussions have become precedents for the guidance of the courts of today. The work of the large district, nevertheless the means of travel have Iteen greatly improved wnee Judge Boise's day. being regarded too heavy for one judge, the legis lature added the second judge and shortly thereafter increased the salary from 13000 to 14000 per annum. The next step was to divide the district, making the counties of Linn ami Marton the Third Judicial dis trict, but retaining the two judges with the increased salaries. Now as a matter of fact, legisla tion ha» not greatly increased since Judge Roise's time. Certainly the business of Unn and Marion coun ties is not as large as was that of the old time 5-county district ami one judge can take care of the courts of the present district far easier than one judge could care for the old. PROBLEM MORE DIFFICULT President Wilson has haodled the Mexican matter in an able manner, lie secured the abdiation of the murderer, llureta and will finally are a stable government, which will be reasonably fair to the Mexican people, (-Htablisbrd down there last us hope peace will be secured with out further interference by our government But he ha» a more difficult problem on his hands in the little unpleasantness now going on across the water. If he maintains the dignity due the American gov ernment without having to lake a hand in the mix up, he will prove himself a master of diplomacy. Neither England nor Germany de sires the United Stales h» become involved in their trouble They would like, each of them, to get lioth food ami military supplies from this country ami we would like to aell to them. But in the blockade mtablished by each country. Unite«! States merchant vessels are suie to suffer. It is the destruction of American merchant v -itel» by mimn, submarines and other vesw»*ls which will involve us in th«* muddle. Rath er than liecome Involved. President Wilson had better place an embargo upom all American vi - m »»U sailing upon English or German water*. If they want the product of the United States it is up to them to protect our vessels bailing to do this, the United States will lie forced to ex tend the protection needed, else keep the vessels in peaceful water*. The last will I m - th«* better plan. If England. France or tiermany want our stuff, let them come over and get it. Money can’t buy Glasses GRAND JURY RECOM MENDS CHANGES Dr. M. L. Morris Governor Withy com lie's action in placing a check to the increase in the number of judicial districts, is most praiseworthy. He had every reason to exercise his veto power in this respect for, unless checked, our legal brethren will soon become a burden to the state, if that point has not already fwwn reached. The man who accepts the place made vacant by Miss Eem Hobbs* resignation will not be very highly respect«« by the profile in general. Until Miss Hobhs manifested some incapacity or diapoaithm to not do just the right thing, she should have retained her position. To hammer ex-Governor West over her shoulders is resorting to the smallest of small peanut politics. The Portland legis lative delegation has reason to be exceedingly proud (?) of their action in thia matter. While Governor Wilhycombe has eactioned numerous other measures upon which he should have wielded the veto ax. hia action upon thia one bill will cover a multitude of sine. | When you want printing done, the kind that is pleasing to the eye.

Hungry Hill Item PUBLIC SALES DAY Albany's public sale« day has proven a success It brought the seller ami buyer together and the public auctioneer did the rest. Why may not Scio have such a sale» day. say every two months? Nearly every Gumer has something he would like to sell am! there is always someone who wants to buy. The problem is to get the seller ami buyer in touch with each other. The public sal«*» day seems a solution to the problem. Now if farmers or others who have something to sell or tfloar who want to buy something, will join in advertising th«* same and set a day when the property could lie exposed for sale at a convenient point, say in Scio for Uiis locality, the cost for advertising would lie but a few cents each ami both buyer and seller would be accomodated. Many peo ple have one or more articles for sale, but not sufficient to make a personal public sale. If all join, a great big sale and a great big crowd of people results. Let articles for sale be advertised for a month, or If a certain article ia desired by some one. let him make hia wants known through advertising and the seller am! buyer will be brought to gether with profit to each. Think about this matter, friends and some thing can tie work«»! up for the ad vantage of all concern«*!. r, * G.
