To have gone through it all and then marry a widow, proves that he was a brave man after all. A St. Louis syndicate asks us to put on a contest to send 14 young ladies to Europe. We would like to go to Europe ourselves and see the remainder of the people over therS who have not yet been able to get away and come to this country. As for the 14 young ladies, we would like to be excused, and refer that kind of a game to ex-Mayor George F. Rodgers. About half the mail a newspaper gets these days is copy sent out with requests for publication free in our columns. II, is all franked and is mostly devoted to making appeals for extension of this department and that, and more appropriations for this and that commission and so forth. This governing business is grow ing so fast that there will be on only two classes left after a little while those on the payrolls and those too poor to pay any taxes The worst forms of special privilege aristocracy are being built up in the name of government, hastening socialism, paternalism, anarchy and revolution. But the people seem to want it, and t'ive public office to those who stand for it. The State Tuberculosis Sanitarium, established by the last leg islature, through the efforts of Dr. Pierce, formerly of this city, has now 60 patients, mostly men. There is a farmer employed who will cultivate about 30 acres in garden truck. He will be able to get but little work out of the patients, as most of them are very weak. This institution is an experiment on the part of the state, and the problem is how to keep the cities and coun ties from committing all kinds of people who belong to Oregon and those who are weak and coma to Oregon to a state institution to be maintained by the general taxpayer. But the taxpayer is easy game. THE PRINCIPLE OF It is a mistake to assume that the people of the various coun ties are going to vote bond issues for good roads, and not know where the roads are to be built. The Gill bill provided that thepetitions for a bond election should state where the money should be expended, and that roads be built to the principal market places. That has been struck out of the compromise measure, and the idea seems to prevail in the new that the people are not to know where the roads are to be built. The opponents of the Gill billsay : If we tell the people where the money is to be spent they will not vote the bonds. They say: Make it a lottery, hide the real purpose from them, and they will vote bonds blindly if we treat them like chil dren. We are very much afraid that the people will vote very few bond" for the state highway commission to spend on that plan. It cannot be beaten into the heads of the Portland crowd that the people are not stuck on the commission plan. Neither can they be got to realize that the people are not clamoring for an opportunity to vote bond issues for any pur pose. But as pretty much all the wisdom in the sUite about good roads resides in Portland, the people will have to stand for it. , EVEN THE PEOPLE The people's measures that were adopted to abolish fishwheels and fish traps on the Columbia were all swept away by the pow erful interests on that river. . The cannery men' and the commercial interests on the lower and upper Columbia had very little resptvt for laws enacted by the people to abolish monopolies. These laws were repealed andamonded nnd there has never has been any great uproar among the political demagogues about the sacredness of the laws of the people. When the interests are big enough the demagogue sidesteps and goes away back and sits down, but the interests on the Rogue river are a different matter. The law to prohibit catching salmon on the Rogue river and its tributaries in any way but wth a hook and line was enacted by the people, and it must be oleyed to the letter. The canneries and cold storage plants and hatcheries built and owned and maintained by one man who is now dead can be at tacked, and the property rendered worthless. Two years irom now the sports men of Roseburg can initiate a bill to close the Umpqua and all its tributaries to commercial fishing. The Portland Rod and Gun club can initiate a bill to close the Willamette and the Clnck'tma and all their tributaries. The theory that the people can do no wrong is on a par with the old theory of divine rights of kings they could do no wrong once. The plain truth is that the rights of the citizen to hook and line fishing, or angling, should be protected by law. But the rights of industries and the commercial side of the fish ing industry also have rights that cannot be destroyed. If this legislature does not see fit to allow commercial fisheries on all the salmon streams of the state, it will lay the foundation for a giiit in the federal courts. The lower Rogue river properties cannot be destroyed without a contest in the courts lasting for years, and going to the su preme court of the United States. The supreme court of the United States will not uphold the doctrine that a bill with a misleading. title can be placed before the peoiJe and voted on to destroy commercial industries with out compensation.

Where do our boasted bulwarks of the constitution for the protection of property as against sports amount to, anyway o PROGRESSIVE GRANTS PASS. The metropolis of Josephine county is coming to the front a3 one of the most beautiful and progressive cities in Oregon. It is said by all who have seen it that Sixth street is one of the most beautiful streets found in any citiy on the Pacific coast. It is three-fourths of a mile long, eighty feet wide between property lines, has sixteen-foot walks, and is paved with bitu- 't'C. Most beautiful of all are its cluster lights a modern iron post with a cluster of Tungsten incandescents every hundred feet. These lights are not only absolutely in line on each side of the street, but the cluster lights themselves are on a perfect grade. Grants Pass is getting two new railroads an electric from the Welch corporation to Ashland, and an, electric to the caves. These Josephine county caves are almost as great a natural wonder as Crater Lake, and are annually attracting more people. Although a much smaller city than Salem, it has this city put in the shade for having the most beautiful street in the state. First-class paving, cluster lights and mountain water are the watchword of modern city building. TO BRIDGE THE NORTH SANTIAM Last year a petition was filed by citizens of Sclo and vicinity, with the Linn County Court, asking1 that a wagon bridge be constructed across the North Santiam, just below the location of the S. P. It. R. bridge a short distance North of Shc.Iburn. No action was taken by the court at that time but now there Is something doing. The courts of both counties have agreed to meet to discuss the matter, at Shelburn, on the date above specified. It Is expected that the courts will arrive at about 9 a. m., and will Im mediately proceed to the site of the proposed bridge, examine location, estimate distances, etc. It Is sup posed that by the time they return to Slielburn, nil will be hungry and the good cltlzcnB of Slielburn will under take to fill the vacuum which will, probably exist in theBtomachs of the court and others who attend. It Is desirable that all, or as many as can attend who are Interested, shall be present. The decision of tho two courts may depend upon the amount of Interest the people manifest; so it Is policy for everybody who is Interested to be there. The Santiam News. LEGISLATl'RE SXAPSHOTS. Magone, of Clackamas has not In troduced a bill at this session. Nel there has he resorted to the expedient of getting Borne other sucker to In troduce his bills. Mr. Magone may not know it, but he is not liable to become a victim of the recall at the hands of hlu constituents. Clyde has made about the best record at this session. He Is the Multnomah member who got 1300 In dividual votes that is 1300 voters thought enough, of Olydo to single him out and vote lor him alone out of about 50 gentlemen who offered their names on the ballot as would-be lawmakers. The question Is what are the politicians going to do with Clyde, when It is recalled that every newspaper but the Portland News fought his eWctlon. Clyde represents the revolution. Of course, Johnson, of Marlon, is Skandlnavlan by name. He Is a de scendant of John Johnson. The state labor commissioner Is Ole Pee Iloff. His middle! name Is not a name Just an Initial and does not stand for anything. Mr. Amine is of French Norman descent. The Normans conquered England. They were Scandinavians and In another 1000 years will have Kngland fully civilized. o I.IONS Will. ME DOWN LIKE LAMBS TOGETHER Ii'mtkh vrsj return mm New York, Feb. 13.
