OSH Wise SAYS npllB OREGONTAN has boon bit for in its donnnoiution of Bryan as a spoilsman, boeauso ho has followed tho limo-lionorcd custom of replacing republicans in tho con sular service with democrats, positions regarded as logit imato political spoils. Nothing but praise, however, is forthcoming from tho Orcgoninn for the state senate, which stoa'm-rollered through n bill making evorv state office political spoils. Nothing bnt commendation is hoard for tho governor, who, although bnt a few weeks in office, is discounting all pre vious records as a spoilsman. .Before his election. Dr. SVithyoombe pledged himself to the state grange specifically, and to the public generally, that never would he, as governor, permit the use of the emergency clause to defeat the referendum. Yt he violated this pledge and signed the spoils bill, to which the emorg ncy clause was attached, simply to deny the right of the people to pass upon the measure. For many years the legislature has been curtailing the power of the governor. Why? Because he happened to bo a democrat. Now the policy is reversed, and tho governor given unlimited power. Why? Because he is a republican. Lt is simply a case of politics the welfare of the state is not considered in the least. No Oregon governor before over had such unlimited "CLOTHES' GIVE US MORE CLOTHES, SAY OVERDRESSED WOMEN Hv power and responsibility as is conferred upon the present chief executive. Every department of state can be thrown into politics even such instituiionss as the state univer- "Arl tturgess, who is alius Intor ducln, some new stunt, has started a Story Hour at Gulz cigar store.

Itelief was denied today by the interstate commerce commir-ston to shippers and consumers of pulp wood, who com plained npain-l present joint through rates published by Canadian railroads and concurred in by roads in the United States. The commission points out that sineo the United States lines merely concurred in the rates, it could do nothing except to order them to desist from such con currence, leaving the old combination rates to And Xrom border points in effect. The commission says the rates were found reasonable by the Canadian board of railway cominis sioners. sity and agricultural college. Politics undoubtedly ham pcrs efficiency, and invariably political spoils spel'sooner or later, graft, shoddy public work and higher taxation. If the idea is to have the governor the business man ager of the state, he should have the right to annoint and remove the various department heads, but. he should bo assisted by the board of control, as the business manager of a business is assisted by the board of directors. Civil ervice should govern the minor employes to prevent de moralization of public service. Efficiency rather than pol itics should govern these. The idea of the state senate, however, and the resultant spoils bill has nothing to do with public welfare. It is simply to provide places at tho pie counter for the profes sional job seeker and the politically hungry. At any rate, the spoils bill puts the responsibility for the state government snuarelv up to the governor. ' The credit or the blame for the efficiency shown during tho next four veal's. rests solely upon his shoulders, and the character of his appointees will determine the character of his administration. "Will it bo a government for spoils or for efficiency? six ' 7iXhj Ji Ejinham Oive us tin's day more clothe. due i", webiweeoh thee, clolhi'- t coer our linked Mmulders to nmteet our limbs to hide our back ive iih clothes! wardrobe i- the onvy of goeiety vomen and net I ivj.cn , fill to tlin eoiniiiiinlty tiiiui nihovltH liiK to tho outslilo world (ho valuo Of OUT "VMM, UHllnVUl(lHMl roMOIItl'CH."

JS. WYNKOOP & CO. (ny Hugh S. Fullerton) Much as It pains mo to contra dict a lady (or tho 10,000 ladies who confess to Miss Lilian Dell that men do not know how to make love) I think sho interviewed a lemon grove instead of a peach orchard, who is a poor lover it Is a girl who who is a poor liver It is a girl who has mado him poor In moro senses than one. Men do not know how to mako love? It is tp laugh! Itldlciilous! Any married woman In tho world will testify that her husband knows how to mako lovo to every other girl in the world. ' How do I know this? Because 10,001 girls liavo told mo so (I've got to beat .Miss Hell by one). They are the girls who say: "Vou'ro Just like all others." If I'm Just llko all others the case is proved; men do know how. Thero are three stages of a man's Hfo. Naturally ho is a love maker. Ho starts at the age of two and makes lovo perfectly confidingly and winning!)' up to 14, Uy that tlmo ho has learned to dodge, but is not yet experienced enough to mako love to them all. From the age or 14 until ho finds tho right girl ho Is a bad lovemakcr, because ho wants to keep nil his love making for ono girl he knows sooner or later ho will find. Miss Bell says men don't know how to mako lovo; they only know how to get married. It Is lho man who doesn't know how to make lovo that gets married; sonio girl is suro to marry him. Tho ono who know'B how to mako lovo marries, ho doesn't got married. Up to 14 or 15 a man animal loves all women, and makes lovo to them. He doesn't even suspect that lt is a game with a set of fool rules govern ing It. He loves, and makes lore, and is loved. Then he discovers that thero Is an artificial, idiotic sot of conventions. Ho finds that tho girls havo made tho rules, and after making them want to change them every time he tries to play them "according to Hoyle." Ho wants to mako lovo to ono girl and about 40 llttlo pin-headed, finitely, giggling sentimental little bits of liveliness want him to make lovo to them. Tho chances are not ono of them wants hi in to lovo them; thoy want to practice on him, and apply what they learn to others, It's that period of a man's life that he always looks back upon with re gret nnd kicks himself to think how MAKK LOVK." It MM.lA.V 1IKLL fun Instead of as had played earnest. After he has practiced on tho one girl, a man learns a wholo lot. He fore long the gamo gets so delightful he wants to mako it three or wour handed. Learn? Why, he doesn't have to learn anything. Ho knew It all the time, only Instead of playing ho was on the side lines. Just because men don't make love. Miss Uell concludes that they don't know how. Statistics provo this untrue. About ono in every six couples married In America seek dlorce, and court records show that men aro to blame in more than SO per cent of the cases. In about 75 per cent tho woman complains that tho man won her by his fervid lovemaking and made lovo so well sho thought it was tho real thing. Worse than that, lovemaking Is llko golf, give a man one lesson and It becomes his hobby.

Adv. We arc face to face with tho vory unpleasant fact that wo are not a self-supporting community. I be llove that Is u fart bc)ond argument. Now that circumstances glvos us two most Important problems to solve. First, "What aro the t utiles that havo contributed to our present condition?" Second, "How nro we to lift ourselves out of thnt condi tion?" The solution of the first question is Important only as It enable us to avoid tho reotltlon of mistakes, and smoothes tho way for tho work ing out of the second nnd the most Important -quostlon. In nnswer to tho first quostlon, I think I am lalng my finger mi a very sore spot In quoting n favorllo argument that has been used both In campaign for the sugar factory and In tho Irrigation movement, viz: "It will establish land values and belli to bring back tho conditions of flvo years ago." Considering that tho "conditions of flvo years ago" wero followed quite logically by tho conditions that obtain now, do you really think that another boom would bo a real benefit to us? Ily "us" I menn to includo tho majority of tho pcop'o that roaro up tbo valley's popula tion, and who depend on what the valley produces, I do not menn to Include real estate agents and others who llvo by their wits. Don't you think we would bo vast ly tho gainer, In tho long run, if wo could forget, for the tlmo being, that thero aro many amongst us who want to get "out from under?" What does tho community gan by the changing hands of title to land? It seems to mo that If wo aro to get anywhero, wo must glvo tbo mopt Importanco to tbo question, "What can wo mako this land produro, and how can wo get tho greatest return for our product " and forgo, for awhllo, to be Interested lu the ques tion, "What can wo soak tho gulli ble new-comer within our gatoa for our land?" Another mlstnko that I think has been inndo and a serious mistake, too has been our wholesale denun ciation of our friend Mr. Mossback It has been my observation, bIiicq I havo been hoio in tho valley, that seems to me that in choosing our Reed neighbor, who was hero before us nnd who will still bo here nfter ninny amongst u havo given up uud left to act lu tbo capacity of "gout" for us, that wo havo rather otcr-douo the thing. Instead of Insisting that Mr. Moss back "get-together" with us and no Capet our point of tlow, would It not be worth while to make a serlops ef fort to "get together" with him and try to see Ills point of view. To mo, tho recent rniupnlgn for the sugar factory has brought out a very significant fart, viz: that our merchants and bankers ran organize nnd give enthusiasm nnd hard woik to a cause moro practical and use-their best (n start something Ily tutus over his profits to tho slock bti)er. Then there are utiles func tions of tho association, such as co operative breeding nnd thu resultant rnlnlug of stock standards -which Is not a ntter of ethics, but of dollars and cents -and the Introduction ami trial of new nnd profitable forage crops, etc. You havo point til out In )otir edi torial columns the community waste lu tho matter of our butter siippl). Why couldn't our Merchants' nnd Hanker' association glvo us a little education on the subject of lo-opern- tie creameries and cheese factories? Perhaps If the Tillamook ro-npera- the clxeso factories can pay their members several rents more per pound for their butter-fat than our fnnneis cnu get thorn ma) be a rea son that our farmers could apply to their business. If the towns of the central valley of California ran bo prosperous through the ro-oporallve creameries that dot the country around them, maybe wo could get a llttlo prosperity by giving their meth od a little careful study, Perhaps u llttlo Investigation, on tho part of tho business men might prove trnt many farmer could In crenso their Income by growing pro duce for tho canneries that aro al ready established In tbo valley.
