THIS election Ik all over, even to
thn Hboutlng, for, while a desul
tory Intercut Is taken In the final
count In California, It Ih only a matter
of ciirlopity, for tho result cannot be
chang'l. Tho only question now Is the
size if Wilson's majority, tho number
of his electoral votes.
Now most of tho great American
voters nre engaged in the pleasurable
occupation of picking out a cabinet for
thn In-coming president, ami as It
seems to be every one's privilege, The
Capital Journal humbly offers a small
suggcKtion.
Tho Pacific coast Is untitled to rep
refutation In the cabinet. It has been
neglected, turned down and Ignored In
this respect always, and the time has
come, to call attention to the fait and
lnsiHt upon our rights. There are
plenty of brainy men on this side of
tho continent, men w ho would add lus
tro and strength to thn political family
of the presld'Uit, and the vaslness of
our territory. Hie conditions of devel
opment prevailing on the count more
than In nny other seel Ion, the differ
ent character of our Industries, and
our rapid growth In population and
wealth, all ileiiiiinil that at leaxt one of
the president's near advisers should
be a Pacific st man. .hint who does
not matter so much for there is an

In many respects tlregoii's claims
for UiIh honor are superior to those
of any of the other coast states. Sli"

Washington, Idaho iiml Nevada, and
having close business relatioim with

elections, she has been solidly Repub

successful Hoik Will 11(1 llolllil go II

N. Teal, of Portland, has alsi been
mentioned In connection with the

Portland Democrats for It, Joe Is a

does not lessen tho duty of property
owners to keep such trecB trimmed up,
nnd the use of tho sidewalks by those
who cannot afford autos, and there
fore have use for sidewalks, made
safe.
Another thing In this connection
Bhould receive attention, and that Is
tho trimming of Bhmlo trees overhang
ing the sidewalks to a sufficient
height, at least, to permit pedestrians
to pans under them without stooping.
There aro many such trees In tho city,
and they should bo attended to at
once. They are nuisance enough when
dry, hut now that thn rainy season Is
on they are simply abnnilnable. Tho
Journal does not care to point out the
especial points whero tho trees aro
permitted to chase the citizens off the
sidewalk, but. calls attention to the
fact, that property ownora may attend
li It, nnd remove the causes of so
much complaint. Take a look at. the
trees In front of your place, and If
they are not In the elns sabove men

from experience Just who this little
suggestion fits.

OX A WEEVIL EXPEDITION'.
Oregon Agricultural College, Cor
vnllis, Or., Nov. 11. A weevil expedi
tion is occupying the attention Just
now of A. L. Lovett, of the crop pest
force of the Oregon Agricultural Col
lege. He has gone to Vale to see if
the alfalfa weevil Is being brought
Into the state from Utah, and from
there he will 'go to the Freewater
.Milon district to plan his next year's
work on tho eradication of the straw
berry root weevil.
Governor West was petitioned by
the people about Vale to use his power
In excluding from the central Oregon
district the much - dreaded weevil
which has wrought such havoc In the
alfalfa fields of I'tah, and more re
cently In Idaho. He communicated
with President Kerr, who at once sent
Mr. Lovett, and ndvised n tcmimrnry
otaranHne, excluding hay now being
Imported from the state afflicted for
the railroad construction camps. The
(picstion of authority to establish such
quarantine lias been referred to the
attorney-general. If it Is found that
the pest has actually gained a footing
In Central Oregon, Mr. Iwet t will de
vote all his time to the matter until It
Is entirely stamped out.
Democrats of Portland are urging
upon Presldent-cleci W ilson the advis
ability of miming Joseph . Teal as
secretary of the Interior.
It Is claimed that it will take two
years more to complete the trials of
