DIGGING POLITICAL GRAVES.
It 13 solemnly announced that two federal appointees will
hang onto their places because Dr. Coe has seen President Taft.
Laying aside the question of what use are Colwell and Malcolm
to the Republican party, or any party, why has Coe been called
in?
Do not those who know Oregon and manage Oregon politics
begin to understand that the common people think and vote?
When it takes a millionaire to land a federal job for a striker
for the Republican machine, Republican voters think and swear.
What is President Taft thinking about when he names men
for federal places who have no political backing, but a million
aire? If the party organization that is provided by law were back
of Colwell and Malcolm President Taft would be excusable.
On the issue of Taft retaining Colwell and Malcolm on the en
dorsement of Dr. Coe, Oregon would go Democratic in 1912.
There may be other things, like the tariff question, to save the
party for the Republican party possibly a foreign war would
doit. M-
Republicans qnd Democratic voters are opposed to one-man
pover and machines and bossism based o nwealth in public ad
ministration. ,
' Federal officials who are heldin their places by the use of the
money controlled by a millionaire will serve the millionaires.
The prostitution of our government by officials who feel they
owe their place not ta a political party, but to a millionaire, is
fatal.
The Capital Journal is a Republican paper and stands for
straight party organization by both parties and party responsi
bility. What principles do men like Colwell, Malcolm and Coe repre
sent, except the power and in-fluence of wealth in public af
fairs. This matter involves the existence of Republicanism in Ore
gon. o
REASONS FOR A BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION.
There are many small leaks that run taxes up on the people
of this state, that a business administration would stop.
Erecting public buildings, making public improvements, pay
ing out money for labor are investments for the people.
Lands acquired at a fair market price and improvements
made where the money is honestly expended are an investment.
Money expended that way is not graft and benefits the tax
payers and improves business and increases the wealth of the
state.
Talking with an importer andwholesale dealer in plants and
shrubs, he said he had furnished a great deal of stuff for the
state.
When asked if it was not profitable business, he shrugged his
shoulders, and said he got almost no price at all.
He said he had known of such stuff for the state house
grounds going through three different hands before it reached
the state.
When the state finally got it the price was three or four times
what it was from the wholesaler, and the difference is the graft.
If all state business could be done as business, there would be
a load taken off the shoulders of the taxpayer.
It is probably too much to expect, but the present state ad
ministration promises to take steps in the right direction.
So far as it does the people will be benefitted, fair prices for
materials and supplies will be paid, and no more.
For this reason alone the Jeffersonian principle of clearing
out the departments once in four years ought to apply.
It loosens a man's tongue to turn him out of office.

ties labor In conjunction with the

With plans practically prfected
for the paving o" 10 miles of the
city's streets during the present sea
son, and with plans under way for
the pavement of a tout 20 miles more
it certain now that the city is des
tined to experlenca in street im
provement work this year one of thej
best, if not the best, season in its his
tory. ,
The streets fo" which plans are
practically perfected, and which are
certain to be improved, and which
make up the ten miles referred to,
are: D street, South Fourteenth
street, North Cottage street, Liberty
street, Summer street, North Thir
teenth street, Fen street, Asylum
avenue, Twelfth street. North Com
mercial street and Mission street.
The plans for-these streets call for
them being paved with bitullthic, El
oso and concrete, and the work of
pavng them will out in circulation in
the city thousands and thousands of
dollars.
Much More Planned.
In addition to the above 10 miles
of pavement, plans are being made
for about 20 more, but their present
status is such that it cannot confi
dently be predicted! that they will be
carried into effect. In same cases
petitions praying for the pavement of
streets are yet subject to remon
strance; in some cases sewer Im
provements may defer the work un
til next year, and in other cases the
property owners have only taken the
preliminary steps looking to paving,
and have not yet filed petitions with
the council. But, making allowances
for the above cases, it would seem
absolutely safe to predict that before
the building season Is at an end' that
the city will have at least paved 20
miles of street, if not 25 miles.
One of the large infractors, who
has done much good street paving
for the city in the past, and who now
has many streets contracted for, and
who, because of h.- superior work,
will no doubt be awarded a number
of more contracts, Is August Kchr
berger. Mr. Kehrberger has a repu
tation for excellent workmanship, and
also supplies the best grade of ma
terials, and is now making arrange
ments for that kind of material for
the work he has In contemplation for
the season.
