May be the victim sunrcd. .X'J'KKMES lire usually (luii,'croiiti. Tlie (lunger in tliu present penitentiary situation is that the stale will go from one ex treme to tht! other which woultl he unfortunate. The report of the coroner's jury in Salem merely confirms the popular impression that conditions at the state penitentiary are hud and a general house cleaning is necessary. lint as politics were largely responsihle for the demoralization, so polities threaten to obstruct dcsireahle reorganization. The l'ieree penal program should hi! changed, not as part of a political drive to discredit the Governor, hut as a matter of com mon sense and good husiues.s. If politics rule, it. will he practically impossible to avoid ex cesses, and go too far in one direction, as Governor l'ieree went too far in another. The l'ieree administration was bad, but not all bad. it failed, not because it was humane, but because it was stupid, not because it recognized certain principles of reform, but because it failed to combine such recognition with discrimination and intelligence. To merely drop the soft-boiled system of radio concerts and sentimentality, for straight jackets and hard-boiled 'brutality, might result in temporary improvement, and greater safety for the public, but it would not give Oregon what the stale should have,, and it might, eventually lead to conditions as undesirable as those recently prevailing. What the state needs is a big man in charge of the peniten liary, a man qualified by experience and character for the job, who can devote himself to this important and difficult task, regardless of politics. . Such a man would be neither a Slaughter House lolin, nor a "Sentimental Tommy," but a prison expert, a strict disciplinarian, a man who .would know that certain inmates of such a place, by intelligent treatment, may be salvaged and returned to useful citizenship, anil that others can only be handled through fear and force. Such a man would have, of couse, the instinct and knowledge to discriminate between the two. This is the goal toward which all good citizens should be work ing. Jiut it can only be reached by taking our penal system once and for all out of politics, cither by depriving the governor of the appointive power, as far as the prison is concerned, or by forcing governors, through public opinion, to choose wardens for their fitness, not for their ability to deliver votes.

This observation would seem to uecount for a ood deal of the variability in this particular finding. in such examinations. So Addis lay down careful rules for the procuring of the specimen, giving written In struct Inns to the patient. The patient is uHked to take his ordinary break fust, including coffee, tea or milk if he wishes, but thereafter all fluids must be abstiiined from for the rest of the day and the night, until the sped, men has been obtained the following morning. The diet is not restricted in inner respects, except that the pa tient Is asked to take no more fruit than customary, even though thirsty. Some of such a suitable specimen In cntrifuged (whirled to cause quick settling of any sediment in it,) am) In normal persons hucIi sediment con sists of a grayish mucus; in the early stage of hemorrhagic Krlght's disease it consist of a In-own precipitate; in the active stage the sediment becomes white.

In arterlosi ler. otlc ('.right's disease, there Is about the same colorless mucus us that ob tained in normal persons.

Certain invalids must avoid such stimulants. Children under 16 should have none of them, but if you must indulge a young craving- for stimulants, cocoa is the least injurious of the three for il child. One objection to cocoa, at meal time, for a child, is that it gives a false sense of fullness und so pre vents the child from taking sufficient food of v. more essential kind. Another objection to feeding these stimulants to children Is that a child's kidneys and nervous system rarely need stimu lutinn and tho abuse of stimulants ac counts for many disturbances in child ren.

The unguided and spasmodic popu la t ion movements are an important problem of today, says Henry C. Tay lor of the Department of Agriculture, lie asserted that although a gain in wealth might result, this might con st it ue a detriment to urban und ru ral welfare unless consciously absorb ed. 'The farm pop ulation that moves to industrial ceil tern may prove an at'sct if provided witii adeguate op portunities to work and live satisfac torily. On the oth er hand It muy become a decided habllitv and a nos- 'HEN(?YC.TAYU)R slble charge on public insrmitions if thrown entirely upon its own resources In obtaining a foothold in tho new and complex sphere. "This movement of population from farm to city is not a new one. While S7.1 per cent of those engaged In gain ful occupations in Cnited Stales were in agriculture In 1 820, the percentage in agriculture was only 2 6.. 6 in 192U. This movement went on gradually throughout 100 years. U, 000.000 Moved in 11122 "A danger may arise if the move ment bo retarded by the luck of facil ities for making the move from farm to city and by lack of facilities for finding a position and gaining the skill required in the new occupation. An other danger is that, because of the difficulties hi moving from-, country to city, a surplus population may be built up in the country during periods of prosperity, which surplus will have to move at very high speed from the country to the city during the periods of depressison. This is Illustrated by what happened during the period fol lowing tho World win. During J!22 it Is estimated that about 2,000,000 persons moved from country to city. "This number was partly offset by the movement of approximately 8S0, 000 persons from city to country, which made a net fchift from farms to towns and cities of about 1,-120,- 000 persons, or about 3.1! per pent of the rural agricultural population at the beginning of the year. . Movement Often It rings SulTerlng "This movement lo and from cities Is not without terrible suffering on the part of many people. Many of those who moved to town during the past five years were forced by bank ruptcy, brought on by the post-war agricultural depression, to go Into city Industries without knowing how and where to get a new start, and they had no fundn with which to establish their i families. It is especially desirable that a pl;in bp developed for the con- YESTJSRDAYiPUZZLE Vicious absorption of the surplUH of rural -population- by cities. Likewise we need a better foundation nnd a re direction, of most of tho plans for moving people from tho city on to farms, especially In undeveloped re gions. - 'Certainly the educational system should be such as to develop the grow, log generation for effective lives whether the individual remains upon the farm or moves into other indus tries. This is not difficult of accom plishment at present, for success in farming In these days requires a broad knowledge of the economic geogra phy of the world, of methods of mar keting, and the technical and econ omic aspects of farm management and accounting, which knowledge may be highly useful In city occupations, particularly in those which relate to the handling of the food supply. The danger in this movement from the country is that the process will he (telective. taking the best stock from tho rural community and leaving the weaker elements of the population of the farms to the detriment not only of agriculture, but of the nation as a whole, for tho farms of this country may ho likened to the seed beds of tho nation. Once we see tho- problem in all its phnsos and relationship the solutions to the problems . will bo indicated. Careful thought" directed on each phase and each relationship should result in concrete plans for .directed migrations and successful and satisfy ing life in both country and clly." WASHINGTON.
