the whole cxpenso of manipulating
candidates and making a party ticket
on the taxpayer Is another such a
piece of political abortion;
.A direct primary law that would
leave the voter all the political liber
ty that ho now has, and make as
pirants pay the bill for holding the
primary would be a more rational
proposition. 1
But why should the unfortunate be

rational or sane from Portland gen
tlomen with wheels? Ho ought to be
thankful to be permitted to' live.

COURAGE OF A STAGE MANAGER.
In these days of heroes It Is pleas
ant to direct public attention to Harry
p Logan, whovdeservos a crown ns
big as a llfo-presorver.
Mr. Logan mnnngos a thoater In
Macon, Missouri, nnd has his own
Idoa about the fltnoss of things.
For instance, ho is or tho opinion
that ovory joko has an ngo limit, at
which period in its enroer It should
bo qulotly and peacefully put to
death.
Ho Is not llko somo theater man
agers that will ponnlt anything that
tho audlonco will stand. In his the
ntor It has never beon found neces
sary to stretch a not In front of tha
stngo or to shoot out the lights In
tordor to oxpross disapproval of an
actor. ft
A show enmo to Macou, and when
a performer told a story about tho
man who -Vied bocauso his mothof-In-law
missed the t,rnln that was
wrockod, Mr. Logan took notice.
Thon enmo that llttlo act porformed
so successfully in the tlmo of Nonli,
whereby a dozen debts nro satisfied1
by the passing around of n 10 bill,
which eventually conios back to tho
starting point. ;
Mr. Logan qulvorod with rage '
A tninard was raging on the out
sldo but tho chorus started In on tho
"Good Old Suin.mo.j'.TIinji." ", j
Right then Manager Logan prancell
up tho alsol, dartod behind tho sconos
nnd ran down the curtatu. with Harry
I-flgan at tho lever. v
A moment later ho made this spooah
which Is commejidable to thoatoi man
agers the country ever: S
"Tho managor of the theater Is ro
Hponslblo for tho character of enter
talnmonta given-la h'la house. Evory

asfthe weather gets settled, and any
way, the .time for weeding out pro

many persons on tho stage who have
missed their vocation and oxist only
by the tolerance of audiences and ob

A SUGGESTION TO SALEM.
Thore are a few belated people who
seem to think a crime, has been com
mitted by nddlng a grade to the Salem
schools,
"Unless Salem adopto high school
methods and, keeps a first-class man,
a broad-gauged man.nnd a middle-aged
vigorous man, In as school superin
tendent, her schools will retrograde.
"Tho prido of Eugene Is hor public
and high schools, and the people are
rlrttArmlnnrl tr Irnnrt Minm lin tn tho
highest possible standard." Eugene
Roglster.
There are some good peoplo
who sttll bollove In woiklng out their
own road tax In fr,ont of their own
laud, When they have nothing" else
particular to do
Offcourso thoy cannot be expected
to understand tho moaning of such an
expression as tho above from the Eu
gene paper.
Public pride and the fact that sta
tistics show that a high school edu
cation multiplies the chancer of sue
'coas? in life twenty-two times dees l.ot
enter into their calculations.
Tho mild suggestion Is made to Sa
eom that there have been too many of
tho mouback vailety on' the school
board.
THEY OPPOSED PROGROESS.
School Director Fletcher is an ox-
collont gentleman, and a good citizen,
nnd he can got into no personal con
troveisy with tho editor of The Jour
nal. We boHove at heart ho favors pro
gress In the Salem public schools, and
this paper ha3 always boen willing to
give him ciodlt for all that he has done
to bring about better conditions.
The fact remains, as first stated in
Tho Journal, that the three-Democratic
members of tho board did attempt
to cut off tlio head of City 'silpt. Trav
or, because he Ij known to be a pro
gressive man.
Tho Republican members would not
consent to the retirement of City
Supt. Traver whoso only offense had
been a perslstont effort to put Salem
schools up to tho standard of othor
American cities.
The throe Democratic members of
tho school board did vote to cut out
everything above tRo ninth grade in
our public schools, in spite of the
fact that Fletcher admits that a tenth
grndo had been established without
Increased expense.
The three Democratic members of
tho board did vote to not re-elect City
Supt. Travor, and, unable to do that,
abolished city suporlntondenco, by
making him servo as principal of tho
East school.
Then, by somo compromise, ns Mr
Fletcher admits, they roconsldered
tho vote, and continued Mr. Traver as
city superintendent. Mr. Fletcher has
given away somo secrets of the board
with which wo woro npt concerned.
SUSTAIN THECOUNTY COURT.
The Domocrnts aro Very sanguine
ovqr tho chances of electing their
candidate for county Judge to hear
tho managers talk.
As a matter of fact, many Demo
crats and other peoplo aro quietly pro
paring to vote for Judge Scott nnd
Commissioner Needham.
For a county that has paid off ?C0,
000 to $75,000 debt in tho past four
years, has reduced its tax levy each
year, and got a fine start towards
building permanent highways, tho
peoplo havo no kick coming.
Tho court might bo condemned for
not levying more county tnxes for
toads, and yet thoy seemod to havo
tho' foresight to antlclpato a high stato
tax levy, and have mado It that much
eoslor for tho people.
If otho Republicans In the last legls
lijtitro had done half as well as tho
fMarloif county court, the party would
ho in much hotter shape to elect Its
.jjglilattvo ticket.
