T The bill for an official state accountant and uniform sys tem of county records was killed, It was a combined graft on the state and on every county and IT DESERVED TO BE NIPPED BY FROST. It meant hundreds of thousands of dollars for Portland blank book makers, The bill was to create another state office, ostensibly to export the books of state officials, An Institution liko an Asylum, a State Prison or a State Fair HANDLES HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS. Tho system of book-keeping and accountnig is inevitably a graft, In Bible times Joseph who handled the affairs of Pharaoh soon owned all Egypt, The politicians are the task-masters of the people and they want one of their own kind TO EXPERT THE STATE AND COUNTY BOOKS. For the present this bill to protect the graftors Is killed. Private oxports and accountants are dangerous, The Governor of this sigto or tho county judge of any coun ty has tho right now TflT HAVE THE BOOKS OF ANY OF FICE EXPERTED. Honco tho professional politicians who live by graft wanted a political state expert, THEY WANT THE EXPERTING DONE IN THE INTEREST OF PARTY OR OF SOME FACTION. If tho books of a county office or state office are honor ably kept, there is nothing to fear, If thoy are kopt to covet up grafts and frauds, A POLITI CAL EXPERT WILL NEVER EXPOSE THEM. Narly all offices created by tho legislature are bargained away bofore tho laws are onactod, THAT IS WHY THE PEOPLE HAVE SUCH A DEEP-SEATED DREAD OF A LEGISLATURE. Thoro should bo public lojoicing that it has adjourned, THEY FEAR THE GALVESTON PLAN. KING OF THROAT AND LUNG Portland nldormon aro vory much afraid .of the new-oily chartor that is proposed, .... What thoy aro ronlly scarod to death about is the possi bility that PORTLAND MAY ADOPT THE COMMISSION PLAN OF CITY GOVERNMENT. Lot it bo understood that i s as danorous as tho Rocall. Tho invontion called tho Commission Plan is rapldlysproading to the citios of tho U nltod States. IT MEANS AN END TO ALDERMANIC COMBINES TO RAID THE TAXPAYERS. Portland has probably been no worse misgoverned than any city of its size. BUT IT IS EASY TO SEE THE CITY FATHERS THERE DO NOT LIKE TO LET GO. With the Commission Plan, the Recall ,the Initiative and roforondum in the hands of tho people, it might be possible to improve oven on a city council such as w-have in Salem. SALEM ALDERMEN WILL HAVE TO BE GOOD IF THEY DON'T WANT TO BE ABOLISHED. In Oropon the poople airoadv have all the above powers ami can intiato and adopt the Commission Plan as Galveston. Dos Moines, Coloiado Springs, and many other cities have done. AS GOES THE GENTLE DEW SO VANISHED THE BOOZE Sacramento, Cal., Feb. 27.
