Howard -Bios. Chemical Co., Buffalo, jr. T.r ' Adv. TTHE AMENDMENT to make the president of the state senate, governor, in ease of the disability or death of the ehiet executive, is a hair-baked measure, which should be deleated. If any change is made in the present arrangement, it should be a real change, a change designed to simplity rather than complicate, to retard political manipulation rather than encourage it. Making the president of the senate the governor's suc cessor, would make this ollice more ot a political football than it is now, would materially impair the efficiency of the higher branch ot the legislature, and tend to increase rather than decrease the delects already apparent. e tavor and have iavoral the creation of a lieutenant governor, a custom practiced in many other states, with reasonable success. Jiut the people have not been educat ed to the need and will have none of it. So its initiation at the present time is a waste of time. But the proposed amendment is worse than a waste of time. It is a step, with potentialities of positive harm. J f the governor is to represent the people, and be elected by them, his successor should come as near as possible in the same category. Ilie people vote lor tlie present vice governor" when they'vote for secretary of state, and they know tins when they cast a ballot. But the people of the state, as a whole, have nothing to do with the election of state senators. Under thus provis ion they would have nothing to do with the governor's suc cessor. The choice would rest entirely with the dominant machine in the upper house. One who knows anything about the conditions m Sa lem, knows what a pernicious political scramble the pas sage of this amendment would produce. The political di vision in the senate, caused by the appointive power of the presiding; olhcer, is deplorable enough now. But with the gubernatorial possibility thrown in, it might well be come scandalous. This successor to the governor measure should be smothered never to be revived. It hasn't a solitary, virtue to commend it. Hoover Wins Oregonian Poll PORTLAND, April 28.

I'll do a dozen help ful stunts before the night arrives; assist some weak, despairing runts, and brighten up their lives. I've played a lot of knavish tricks for which I should atone, and ikiw I should my record fix, for this day is my own. I cannot bank on any day that hasn't yet had birth; before it comes and slides away I may fall off the earth.. But in this writing I am sound and full of vim and pej, I'm full of life, I cave around with high and buoyant step. Tomorrow they may measure me for monumental stone; today I'm busy as a bee, for this day is my own.
