MINORITY rule is bad. And yet in a majority of the elections in
this state, outside of the most important, the decisions are
reached liy a minority. It seems impossible to awaken the people :is
u whole, to one of tlie fuinliimcntitl duties of j;ood citizenship, the
exercise of the franchise which is the foundation of democratic gov
ernment.
And yet in yesterday's election and in all elections, it is doubt
ful if the results would be changed bv a larger vote. There is ap
parently some law at work, effective equally on tlie proponents and
opponents of any issue. This assumption is supported by a well
known practice in all newspaper offices. The first returns, rcpre
Kentinc perhaps only one or two per cent of the total, arc invariably
accepted as the basis of predictions of the final outcome. And in
nine cases out of ten, these predictions are sustained.
'Moreover in yesterday's elections and ) other elections, the re
sult is usually indicative of a certain discrimination on the part of
the electorate. The service men's compensation measure was the
tiost important measure on the ballot, and it was tunpiestoiuibly
passetl by an overwhelming majority. The next measure in impor
tance, or perhaps better the next measure rejjardintf the desirability
of which there was the least doubt, was the emergency clause veto
and this too has undoubtedly passed.
.
The apparent defeat of the legislative regulation amendment is
to be regretted, but the opposition to increasing tlie pay of legislators
is so in rraincd in Oregon, that this feature of tin measure probably
(roved too great a handicap for the obvious virtues of the measure
as a whole to overcome.
There will be no harm done, if as seems probable the hygienic mar
riage measure andlhe women jury measure were defeated. The first
bill was theoretically sound, but practically impossible, while the
second bill was sound as far as the right of women to serve (injuries
is concerned, but it is very doubtful if women as a whole care for I he
privilege, or that benefits derived would compensate for the com
plications and expense involved.
So while the potential dangers of minority rule, can not be mini
mized until conditions arise, which result iu an obvious defeat of the
public will, involving serious dangers, Oregon will probably continue
to muddle along complacently confident that the rule of a decent
average will somehow be suslaincd.

COFFEE.
VANdKlMXK is brewing a noxious sort of drink; it might
be laundry bluing, it might be brindle ink; but coffee she
believes it, this beverage of death; and when her hub receives it
he swears beneath his breath. The two were lately marrid,' the
bonds of love are strong, the husband hasn't carried his grievance
very long, lie hasn't started brawling, the riot is delayed, though
often he's recalling the coffee mother made. And inwardly he's
(tiaking, he knows not what to do; Kvatigcliuc is making a most
atrocious brew. Her coffee tastes like leather, it gives an awful
jolt, and he is asking whether it's time for a revolt, lie hates to
hurt her feelings, but must he always drink a brew of carrot peel
ings that iuts him on the blink? J'.e hates to spoil the glamor sur
rounding hive's young dream, but he has knl.enjaminer from cof
fee that's a scream. II can't go on forever, he'll dump the mar
tyr's crown; some day his wrath-will sever the bonds that hold'
liim down; some day, the galled possessor of grievances and cares
will wreck a costly dresser and break a lot of choirs. Another
home, once cheerful, all desolate will be; a young wife, sad and
tearful, will ask for a decree! Though moralists are shoving the
customary bunk, no man can keep on loving on coffee that is
punk.
