Burglaries are becoming quite common and frequent. Residence burglary insurance is becoming very popular. On account of the increased number of robberies in this part of the state many people are getting policies against burglary. It applies to articles owned by any member of the family, but not to jewelry belonging to gue9t3. It includes silverware, clothing and contents of sideboards, important if you live in a dry town. Soon there will be insurance against contents of melon patch es and chicken coops being stolen. THE MORAL VALUE OF GOOD BREAD. Those who would improve humanity should study the moral value of good bread in the family. It Is a well-known fact that the foundation of good character in children is love of home. Real affection for the home and its comforts and cookery of mother is the salvation of children. Well-nourished children, who love the things they get at home better than anything else, are started right. Tliey do not all acquire the abnormal appetites and craving for stimulants that are the beginnings of vice. They do not want to chew gum all day and spend every cent they can get hold of for candies and sweets. At the foundation of all good home dietary is well made, healthy and wholesome bread that has flavor and nutriment. The Capital Journal had an editorial on this subject recent ly, and has received a number of compliments. One of the most substantial compliments received was in the shape of two loaves of bread. They had a rich, brown crust that crackled when cut with a knife, and crackled when eaten. The bread was not snowy white, but was the color of bread not of white paper. You wanted to eat three or four pieces, and you could eat it with relish. You could eat it, and it tasted good with butter or jam spread over it. It was baked by Otto Busch, the baker at the state insane asy lum. It was the kind of bread that should be in every family in Oregon. It was the kind of bread we used to get from the old brick ovens. That kind of bread means good morals for boys and girls who get it. , j BEN OLCOTT BUT NOT BLUE SKY. The Capital Journal is a hearty supporter of Ben Olcott for re election as secretary of state on the platform of his being an ef ficient man in that position. He has great clerical ability and great skill as an accountant, and, with his organizing ability and his ability to expedite work, he is a valuable man to the people in that position. But The Capital Journal is not supporting what is known as the Blue Sky law, for the following reasons: We believe the corporations that pay license taxes are paying enough now to the state find federal governments. The proposition to collect $75,000 to $100,000 more license fees out of new corporations does not appeal to us as good busi ness. The proposition to create another commission, another state official on $3000 a year salary, and $45,000 for the first two years for expenses, does not look good to us. This department is like insurance commissioner, a mere clerk made into a state official with a suite of offices and a force of clerks to serve the insurance companies. Every important clerkship in the state can be expanded into a commissioner, with offices, clerks., bookkeepers, stenographers and records, and the people who do business have to pay for it all. The theory of the Blue Sky law is that the state can protect the other people against injudicious investments in stocks, lands nnd other property sold by orgpnized corporations. To do that in Oregon would simply leave the same people an ensv prev for conscienceless operators in the same kinds of prop ertv in Mexico, Alaska and every other state in the Union. The corporation department is economically conducted at pres ent on a salary of $1800 a year, and that is as much as the work is reasonably worth. This may seem uneraeiou for a newspaper to object to con stant expansion of salaries, but the man in private business is used to constant contraction of revenues from competition. Secretary of State Olcott has conducted his department with goHl business judement and economy, and will continue to do so, whether the Blue Sky I-aw is passed or not. JOURNALISM AT THE UNIVERSITY. The State University of Oregon has established a course "pre paratory to journalism." E. W. Allen, said to be an experienced newspaper worker, is in charce of the new shift. Actual newspapers are to be studied in the classroom, and real newspaper men are to assist. Just what a "newspaper man" is nowadays is an open question and not easy to determine. There is a vast difference between the man who owns a bak erv. a baker or retailer of pies, cakes and bread. There is only one baker one man who makes the bread and be may not own the bakery or even run a bakery. A baker may not even make bread as he would like to make it or such bread as he would eat himself. He mav make bread entirely for commercial purposes to ee bow much hot air and how little flour he can get into it. It is about that way with modem journalism how much hot air and how little real information can we give the people. Shall the Univers;tv turn out the complaisant flatterer and nniversal hot air peddler or real newspaper men? It is too much to expect that its out nut will differ very much from the general tendency of the day to produce mere palaver ers. "AH governments derive the r just powers from the consent f the governed." is not origiialwith Roosevelt. It was not oric na! with Lincoln, who used it at Gettysburg. If we are not mis 1 sken that glorious truth was first uttered by Seneca, the pagan philosopher. COLOfiEL TALKS TO CHILDREN 0N1T1D nat UUHED WIE. Pocatello, Idaho, Sept 13. At Black Foot, Idaho, the colonel discovered a sister of "the best man ever appointed on the New York police force," ac cording to his own description. Speaking to 2300 school children and cowpunchers at the Illack Foot fair, the colonel was declaring that "all this talk of being a dlctataor came from Wall street." "That's where they need one, too," a woman shouted. ''Precisely," the candidate added. "I want you to now who I am," the woman said, 'I'm Otto Raphael s sis ter. "By George," U that so," Roosevelt yelled. "Why he's the beet policeman I ever appointed on the New York po lice force. I heard of a gallant res cue ke had made, taking soma women and children from a burning building, and I said that he would make a splendid policeman. "He waa a Jew from Russia, and not anywhere near as good looking as his sister. I found him at the Bowery branch of the Y. M. C. A., and got him into a uniform. "Ha made a dandy policeman. The only time I had trouble with him was when he insisted on Joining my Rough Riders, and I would not let him. He certainly was a good policeman, but he didn't know one end of a horse from the other." The crowd yelled Its approval and pleasure at the reminiscence. What pleased Colonel Roosevelt most about his reception was that sev eral hundred school children welcomed him with patriotic songs. "They are your best crop," he told the crowd. It waa the question of greater utili zation of school houses .for "neighbor hood purposes" that Roosevelt devoted his speech. ''Social gatherings, moth ers' meetings and all such similar as semblies should be held In the school house," he said. 'The polling booth should be held there, and It Is the place for political meetings." THE BLIND SCHOOL WILL BE HADE SAFE After a consideration of the blind school building which Is pronounced a fire-trap, the members of the educa tional board today decided to Install a number of precautions, and decided that, with them, tho school can be opened with safety this fall. It was decided to press a night watchman Into service, and also to re move the children's sleeping quarters from the third floor to the second. Un der these conditions, it Is believed, that the school can be carried on un til the legislature makes an appro priation for a building for the heating plant and also for a laundry.
