To give the Gov ernor the power to suspend an officer from bis duties fur even a few days is aettirg a dargerous precedent, for we are set in our opinion that the officers of Lake county, for instance, are more qua ified to judge as to the proper duties to be performed in our local Gov ernment than is the Governor, who would necessarily have to act on second band information. If any officers should be derelict in the performance of his duty it is an easy matter to com pel him o make good. The great trouble is that we as individuals do not care to assume any responsibility in such cases, but prefer to ait back and howl about such and such an officer cot performing the duties imposed opoi him by law. The Oregon Legislature may have no senatorial holdup but how about the State Printer? Nearly every Legislative Assembly daring the past quarter of century has attempted in some way to regulate tfce requisites of that office, but up to the present time no progress has been made. A few years ago a great hue ard cry wss raised be cause of the exorbitant fees paid for the State printing, and the present State Printer owes bis success to that sort of a campaign. He is now fight ing to enrtinue the same fees that have ev.'lys bef n puid, evier'ly believing that he can be elected for a third term two years hence. Thus far he has been able "'to catch 'em a coming and a goirg," with prospects favorable for another victory over the present Leg ialatore. gin tn couple, hence perhaps arose the custom of sending on this date lettera containing confessions of love and affection. The U. S. senate has approved the house bill granting 10 IS. acres of the old Fort Bidwell military reservation, including the cemeteries where lie buried the victims of the Modoc Indian war, to the rort Binweii t'eopie a Church Association, to he used as a cemetery, and to be held in trust for the town of Fort Kidwell, the Masonic and Odd Fellows lodges and for the in terment of so'diers and Indians. The reservation ia now used for an Indian school. Hon. B. St. Georee Birh p, of Klnm ath, ho v as the Democratic candidate for Representative in this district two years ago, is now an applicant for the puritiun of United States Marshal for Oregon. "Bish," as his personal friends call bim, is a prince of good fellows, and his appointment would meet with the hearty approval of a very large majority of the pepople of this section of the State. Of course, he has a number of political enemies, but it is a CBBe of "no love lost," for Mr. Bishop never hesitates to let the people know where he stands, and as a natural consequence be is always tread ing on some one's teet as it were. Senator Thompson is proving himself one of the strongest members of the present Legislative Assembly. He has invariably held aloof from any combines wbicb he deemed detrimental to the bet interests of the State as a whole, and notwithstanding that be op posed giving the Assembly body and soul over to Mdltnomah County he ac-compli-hes things just the same. The members evidently fully appreciate bis worth and hence heartily support measures be is interested in. Mr. Thompson's course meets with the hearty approval of his cor.etituer.ts here in Lake county. The til' before CorgresB pr vidiig that a man can hold the office of Pres ident for but one term eo jnds the death knell cf the Bullmciose party, and as a nnseaueree tie Progressives are strictly opposed to it. With Roosevelt out ot the PrcbMeritial possibilities there would be ro c'her person who couiii possibly hold the TrM and file, and hnr.ee the new party would follow the PopuliBt to an early grave. Klamath will now protahly bceome widely known as th? Land f Cain. She is certainly entitled to tha cogno men, inasmuch as her principal industry durinp the past several years has been "raising Cain," that is if the rtpoits given out by the press cf Klamath Falls is any criterion. With adjournment last Thursday, the last day for introducing bills in cither bouse of the Legislature without the consent of three-fourths i f the members. 325 bills bai been introduced in the Senate and an even 600 in the House, or a total of 925 bills for the session. This is just 200 more tills than were introduced during the entire 40 days two years ago. The record of the present Legislature is way ahead of anything in the line of propo ed legis lation in the history of the state. After a month's trial the suggestion comes from the Poetoffice Department that toe parcel post should be improved. If some of the classifications toe rates are higher than need be, and better to serve the purpose for which the parcel post was created the eleven pound limit should be raised, possibly to fifty pounds is suggested in the Post Master General's report. High School Notes Trie Basket Ball team of the High School is to meet the High School team at Alturas next Saturday. On account of the Ball game there will be excursion rates to Alturas, Sat., Feb. 15 of one fae for the round trip. The receipts at the Basket Social last Friday night amounted tu $81.35. The new curtains for the Assembly stage have arrive ! and will be pui in pla-e just as soon as the work can be done. Wednesday being declared a holiday the schoql took advantage of it in part by giving the teachers and pupils the afternoon as a play spell. Dr. Dunlap met the school in assem bly Wednesday mornirg and gave a short interesting talk which! was great ly enjoyed by the students. St. Valentine Legend Perhaps you have beard the legend of St Valentine, but if vou have not, here it is In as small a nutshell as such saint could be well condensed : St. Valentine lived long ago. An emperor ruled him, and the emperor whose name was Caudius, became very jealous of St. Valentine or Fr. Valen tine, as he was ftien called. And one day Claudius cut Frair Valentine's head off and banished his remain?, so that nobody nhould know that he had been beheaded. "Now why did Claudius do this?" you ssk. Well, he did this because Fr. Valentine was such a great favorite with the young people that Claudius was not in their aeffction at all. ! Amundsen, or will he te classed with Dr. Cook? Tlie gentleman has juat learned that Cain the son of Adam, established the first city in America, near Klamath. Ur., and that it was to this city, called Enoch, tht the people of Asia fled in part to escape the Hood, Is the assertion of Charlea Hal lock. Ph. D., an archaeologist, in a report to the Pea bod v Museum at Harvard. The region about F.noch was known throughtut tradition as the Land of Peach. It was a communal settlement. Great personal fortunes were divided among the laborers. Just before the deluge, Dr. Haflock says the discov eries show many routes extended out from the city, and gold probably was brought uo from California. Bones of many extinct animals, from the mastadon to the twotoed horse, have been found throughout this whole section ot the Stale, and what adds still more Interest to the story of D. Hallock is the taut that there is among the Klamatn Indiana a l-gnd to the effect that the Ark landed on the east side of Upper Klamath Lake, the spot was marked by painted rings on rocks, just below the alleged landing place. The panted rings have been an object of interest to many tourists, as well as people living in that vicirity, inasmuch as the rings appear brighter at certain times than at others, owing perhaps to atmospheric conditions. Aside from the legend the Ind ans profess entire ignorance of the rings, inasmuch as they have "always been there." The location of the rigns is on a point of rocks about a mile and a half or two miles along the lake shore before the wagon road leaves tne fhore and goes across to Williamson Kiver. Or at least such was the case before the Southern Pacific built Its present line along the shores of the lake. The writer haa known of the legend concerning the landing of the Ark for a number of years, but never attached any significance to it. However, the dicsovery or Dr. Hallock lenda addi tional interest to the question, and per haps still furthei researcn will estab lish the fact that the Land of Cain and the City of Enoch were our neigh bora when the vforld was first created.
