WEDNESDAY. DECEMBER 11, 1901. NECESSITIES OF REFORM IN STATE SALARIES, Thia'nocoBsity for a reform In tho way stato officials got their pay grows out of tho fact that tho people have refused to adopt any amondmonts on this subject that have been proposed by tho legisla ture. To lot matters stand as thoy Bro un til a now constitution can bo adopted Is a longtlmo uncertainty. Tho peoplo might vote down any new constitution proposed. To wait until tho initiative and refer endum 'are In oporation would bo anoth er illogical uncertainty, that thoeo who profit by tho pretont system would be only too glad to accept as a compromise. Tho only way to lay tho right founda tion for an ordorly stato government Is to put each ofllclal on a stated 'salary, fixed and made abeolutoly certain by law, and put all fees and earnings of each ofllco in tho treasury. Tho only way to accomplish this re form is for tho Republican party and Domocratle party both to declaro that Tho best businessmen and the con scrvatlvo hayseed Republicans oil over tho stato should take hold of this matter in the right spirit and put it through tho county and stato conventions. If tho Democratic party wants to iro thorn ono bettor annd offor a still hot tor system ofrunnlng our stato htrnte affairs let them do so. Thk Jours a will in a few days publish corrected figures showing thocoat under tho pres ent system. In reforming an ' improving our stato affairs let us begin at the bottom. POPULIST PARTY DECLINE AN ES TIMATE COMPILED FROM THE NEW YORK WORLD. This Congress tho result of tho elec tions of 1900 marks tho formal ond of the Populists as a national party factor. Tho s'ix Populist and silver Senators and the eight Representatives have gone in to caucus as Democrats or Republicans. It hob in the summer of 1S02 that thoso excited movements among tho farmers which had onco taken shape as Uto officers be put on a fiat salary and the Greenback party again assumed thh mako their nominees agree to sorvo for tho salary. Primarily this duty falls on tho Re publican psrty, because it is tho major ity party, has been responsible for tho stato govornmont, and has in its plat proportions of a national enterprieo. Several successive years of hard times, short crops and heavy mortgages, com bined with the irritation in tho silver prodacing Stales becauso silver waB bo- coming bo plentiful that it was no longer forma and in tho legislature declared for j standard money metal, resulted in a this reform. 1 8reat nna 8row ,u8 uiscontont, especially ... . , . . , . among tho Republican farmora of tho Thla Is not a personal fight against "'" h ' any official but a demand for achango e3t" i i .... !.. ..m Tho IVoploa Party grow steadily and from a vory bad and expensive system ' 'B ,..., , to a common-sonBO and businosBllko swiftly atrongor. When Its first national system, convention mot atOmaha on July 4,1892, it said, "We moot in tho midst of a na tion brought to tho vergo ol moral, po litical and material ruin." Whole most eopla laughed, a fow far sighted men saw that If thero was not a turn iu the tido from hard times hero was the nucleus of a national danger. In the fall elections of 1802 Weaver, the Populist candidate for President, got 1,011,028 votes and 22 electoral votes At once both of tho groat partfos enter ed upon an ouergotic tllrtatlon with the I'opulists Tho Republicans wore wlso onongh to restrain their co quetries to vaguo promises, to pleadings with thoBO ox-Republican farmers to tnut to tho "grand old party." Rut tho Democrats, thanks chiefly to the predominance in tlid party coun cils of old linoSonthorn Domocrats with the Greenback taint, went rapidly from tllrtatlon to "serious iiitontlons," to a proposal of marrlago, to tho marriage of 1800. Tho wild eyed and wild-whiskered sago-brush bridegroom of old lady De mocracy proceeded to seat himself at tho head of tho tahlo and bully and browbeat the unhappy brido. Tho reatill it is tho confusion nnd disheartonment in tho Democratic household tcday. Tho tido turned to prosperity in tho .... fcprlng of 1890, tho Uoinocrata wero beaten in the nation and in all tho closo State elections, and tho Populists got what few Legislatures, Governors and Senators thero wore for tho fusion. White tho Republicans have re absorbed tho bulk of tho Populist voters, reabsorbed thorn not as Populists but us Republicans eager to show sincere re pentance, tho Democrats havo gained (ow indeul besides tho leaden). . Tho Joneses and Stowarta who havo returned to tho Republican meeting house are seated meekly and humbly on tho back bench in tho cornor furthest from tho etovo. Tho Populists nnd tho Populiml Domocrats aro spread im pudently upon tho boat Democratic pews; thoy trighten away tfiouo who would like to ontorj thoy swagger np and down tho aisles, roaring threats to throw out any Democrat of tho old- fashioned kind who ventures to try to take part in tho eorvicoB. Of course this cannot last Tho over whelming mojnrlty will sooner or later recoori tho control. Tho congroesional caucus, with itsBiimmary postponement of the "get-togothor" resolutions pro posed by Congressman McClollan nud its smothering ovon by tho Now York Democrats of the Fitzgorald Bound monoy resolution, shows how Uiscourog iugthe outlook is. Thero must be n restoration of char acter, tho rolegation of tho wild-eyed and wild-mouthed to tho far, far roar, a distinct demonstration of worthiness of public confidoncc a slow procoss, but tho only ono. Opportunity clamors for an opposition party. But opportunity will havo nono of Populists difguised as Democrats aud Democrats with a weakness for Populism or a weakuoss in principle.

Ab Tiik Jouhnal pointed out to tho hop growers, a union cannot bo formed o bundle tho ontlro crop, good, bad and indifferunt. A unin composed of tho growers of tho best varieties, and of por Bona who would tako a pridu iu putting up a gilt-odgo pack will succeed Tho fruit growers' union has already onllBted as ptoekholdors tho best straw berry growers iu this vicinity, withu few still to como in. t'o w-itli upplo, ch' rry, Jand peach growers. Its success will depend on a hard fight for high standard of quality tho first year. Tho best groword must atand up for a reputation for excellence for tho Balom borry and wo can easily excel in ovory kind of berries ami then tho un ion will bo an immonso success, Tho building of a reputation for su periority nnd an even cxcollouco of quality la what la making tho Hood River berry grower rich. It ia making our making our beat creamery mauaeerB rich. Tho organization of tho fruit growers ought to bo kept under tho control of the host growers. If thoy delegate their au thority to handle tho union to any but thoso who will aim for tho highest re sult thoy will mako a mistake. THE PAPER OF THE PEOPLE.
