THE SAME
rVUIUXG the recent cum puimi Governor Meier ndvoented the
elimination of the public nervico commission.
At that time tho Mail-Tribune maintained that this was
merely an effort to capitalize tho public J'celiiiK ajjiiiiiKt the wlafc
commission, particularly in Multnomah, molluscs to catch flies
that if such action were curried out it would be n victory for
the public utilities rather than the people for il would render
any effective public control of the utilities impossible.
T'HAT this contention was correct must now be apparent to
everyone. For Governor Meier and his supporters, instead
of abandoning the principle of such control, ur(;e its retention,
favoring two such commissions instead of one, Die first a one
man commission, t lie second a commission composed of three
members.
In other words, instead of yaarryinj; out the pledge to abolish
the public service commission, the new state administration is
rclaininjr one commission of three members and creating a sec
ond, .lust how as a permanent policy two commissions will
serve the interests of the people of this state better than one
it is difficult to see. . , .
rriiING the campaign this paper advocated retaining the
public service commission, and placing men upon it, quali
fied to protect I he interests of the people on one hand, and the
lcgitimale rights of the public utilities on the oilier in short,
commission that would insist upon, and be able to secure, a
square deal.
The only answer we heard to this proposal was "down with
the public service commission!"
And that was the way n majority of the people voted. Hut
now instead of having no public service commission or only one,
they nre going to have TWO!
IT WAS ever thus. I'nl sound political principles up against
appealing political catchwords, and the latter win perhaps
not every time, but nine times out of ten.
And we fear pointing out In the voters how they were
gypped as we are doing now does lillb'-gooit.' -For aflei-an
election is over they arc nol interested in politics one way or
the other, and they WONT be interested until the same sort of
unadulterated whang-doodle lures them after the demagogues
and self seekers in another campaign.
WHAT IS THE ANSWER?
'I'lIEKE is one very peculiar thing about this Prohibition busi-
ness. Take a stand at the isomer of Main and Central and
ask tho people as they pass )y what they think of Prohibition
At least eight out of ten will say they think it a fiircc.
Listen to the talk nt a local club or lodge; take a trip and
listen to the conversation in the Pullman smoking room, or in
the day coach j browse around
und if you hear any Prohibition talk it will be overwhelmingly
AGAINST.
A Nl) yet when President Hoover appoints a commission to
study the problem, only .two out of eleven favor repeal,
and on the modification issue (any change in Prohibition what
ever) the commission is almost equally divided, six for and five
against. - '. , . .. ', ..
It is Hie same in congress and in the state legislature at Sa
lem. Go to Washington and talk with senators and congress
men privately ; go to Salem and do the samething. Those op
posed to prohibition individually, outnumber those strongly in
favor of it over two to one.
And yet whether it is before a commission, congress, or a
state legislature, bring up the Prohibition issue for a vote,
and this overwhelming sentiment against it suddenly and mys
teriously vanishes. Why is it? What does it mean?
IS TINS apparent unpopularity of Prohibition merely talk?
Ifave people acquired the habit of talking against Prohibi
tion, and then when il pomes to a showdown, voting for il ?
.Or is the present situation due to. the fact that the Drys,
while in a minority, are united and militant, while the anti
Drys, while in the majority, are divided ami quitters?
firV'RXi-D" if wc know. Hut we DO know this. The present
writer numbers among his friends both ardent Drys and
Wets, and he being neither, is frequently cursed out by both.
Hut. one fact has been very nnHeeable for many years, the ar
dent Wet is willing to talk a lot, hut when it eoines to takftig a
public stand, or even writing something for the paper there
is a decided "backwardness about coming forward." The ar
dent Dry doesn't talk so much, but when something threatens
the principle in which he believes, you will always find him out
in front, on the firing line.
Perhaps that's the answer.
What's the use?. If yon have money enough to spend the
winter at a resort, you have enough to make winter enjoyable
at home.

righteous than they are; pretending to be richer and mole im

Recovery From Tbc
Can a woman who has had T. B.
(you do not mean Tubercle Ba
cilli, so you should Bay tbc. which
is the abbreviation for tuberculo
sis) givo birth to a child without
breaking clown again? Will the
child be tubercular? (you mean
tuberculous that Is, affected with
tuberculosis; tubercular merely
means having tubercles, and one
with leprosy, syphilis, actinomy
cosis or some other disease might
have tubercles, be tubercular,
without being tuberculous, having
tuberculosis). (Mrs. K. F. T.)
Answer. The woman may bear
children without greater risk than
as tho she had never had tubercu
losis. Kven if the mother ham
active tuberculosis when the child
is born, the child will not be horntl
with tuberculosis, but would bo
certain to contract It from tho
mother If permitted to remain In
hor care. If'no ono In the house
hold or In intimate contact with
the child has tuberculosis, the
child will not catch the disease.

that they have done more to en

. THE FORCE OP GOOD HABIT
,ifi By Alice Judson Pcale
ilikln cheering, to consider that If
bad habits are hard to break, good
ones are equally strong.
Train a child always to pick up
his toys before bedtime and he will
be unwilling to go to bed If they
are strewn about.
Children, like ail other living
creatures, not only tend to repeat
those actions which give them
pleasure, but find it difficult and
unilleasant . to wean' themselves
from any aetlon which has become
habirdal.
The good habits of childhood
are! permanent. A child who has
'bterVjwell trained before the age
of five, is unlikely to give trouble
later on.
The hitch in tho matter comes
from the fact that parents unwit
tingly try to teach children good
habits without seeing to it that
they are accompanied by pleasur
able feelings.
For Instance, we make- a child
wash his hands before dinner
Without giving thought to anything
but the fact that we want him to
be bleah. Iff
This result Is not In itself attrac
tive to the child. To become so
it must be associated in his mind
With fun. with a sense of achieve
ment, with praise nnd approval.
If he is scolded for dirtying the
basin, for leaving the sonp on the
floor, or for soiling his towel, the
whole business becomes disagree

If, on the other hand, we take
pains to ignore his first clumsiness
and the fact that he does not do ns
good a job as we would like, he

mode! In making other ships, or It
mnde them want to hear his stories
which he eo loved to tell.
They hnd no sooner finished giv
ing their reasons than the house
was simply filled with children
from all the countryside around.
And then the games began. They
played all sorts of games, but hide-and-gn-seek
more than any other.
The little house was full of niar7
velous hiding places. '!
The Little lllnrk Clock took a
rest during tho party. He said the
other children might not know
what to make of a little Clock run
