THAT the present legislature Is composed of bright, brainy men Is admitted by all who come In contact with Its members, but It must not be overlooked that there are poli ticians among them, and wherever politicians gather, ways that are dark prevail and sometimes "ways and means" both. Men will do things, de scend to tbjng for political purposes, or for some movement pertaining to state affairs, that they would scorn to do Individually as business men, even In their own Interests. It Is so In this legislature, as It has been In all post onos ,and probably will be In all yet to come. Speaker McArthur saw fit, while mildly criticising The Capital Journal Wednesday, to also commend It Now The Journal feels the same way towards Speaker McArthur. He 1b conscientiously trying to rush the work of the house, but ha Is handi capped In his efforts, and by the ways and means committee, which Is hold ing back Its reKrt, and It Is fair to presume, for some esieclal purpose. That purpose can be Inferred from a story elsewhere In this Issue. The trouble has been caused primarily by the very clover work done at the be ginning of tho session that mado the ways and means committees of the two houses a family affair. This was done, not with the connivance of Speaker McArthur, but was probably accom plished without his siiBpoctlng nny thlng. Pat Is Just Blmply old-fnsh-lonedly honest, and straight forward, and hence does not suspect gullo and trickery In others. Tho saino remark might apply to President Malarkey, and this Is what mado tho combination havn an easy Job of getting tho whip hand of the legislature. Now the Cap Unl Journal docs not protend to know tho actual facts, tho Inside workings of the legislature, or what Its nicniberR nro thinking about. It cannot look under another man's hat ami ti'll what that man Is thinking about, but It can sen through between tho rounds of u ladder, and feels It has a right to draw reasonable conclusions from what can bo thus seen. Now the examination of the forma tion of tho ways nnd means commit tees of both the houso and senate dis closes this slate of facts. Abbott, chair man of the wnys and means committee In tho house, Is the brolher-ln-law of Dnnlwny, who Is a brolher-ln-law of I'llmplon, who Is a brother-in-law of Perkins, chairman of tho ways and means committee In the senate. Do you think that these selections for these most Important committee chair manship was Just an accident? If you do, you have Homo morn thinks com ing. Mr. Abbot!, was at one time tho business partner of Slate Printer Dunl wuy, and some people think lie Is still Interested with lit m III Hie stale print ing business, though this In merely a rumor, with nifhlug In sight lo Juxllfy inserting that. II Is true. This being true, v rtnld not the nat ural Inference he thai tho ways and means commute" of holli houses are holding back their reports In order to defeat, tho Hat salary bill fur the slate printer and lo maintain the stale print ing biislin-ss 111 Us present form? Of course, It Is mi absolutely known that this Is tho case, but we suggest that In view of the premise tho conclusion Is almost Irresistible. Again Mr. Ab ImiU evidently feels the dominance of Ills pohIiIoii nnd his head Is hiully swol len. Yesterday tho Portland papers iiole lit m as saying: "I know the governor Is hilling at SAFETY DEPOSIT BOXES Our safety deposit boxes, In our TIhco Manganese Bleel Vault, the strongest on tho Pacific. Coast, are now ready for renting, wo will bo pleased to show them to you. i! LADD & BUSH, Bankers i "Want" nds and me as the 'goat' In bis message," snld Abbott, "and I don't feel very good about It. But let him veto everything lhat comes along. He won't coerce me a bit. "The governor can go to hell with hlB charges and Insinuations nnd play ing politics. Let him send In all tho messages he pleases. We will get these appropriations In when we get to them and he can't force us to take them up before." ( Iast night the same gentleman sent word to Speaker McArthur to "go to hell" when asked to come Into the houso and make a quorum. He evi dently thinks he Is IT. Mr. Abbott Is deficient In tact as well as lacking In Judgment, and Is Bwelled up before the game Is over. In his pride of place after consigning Governor West to that "second edition of Arizona," he may probably also toll tho Capital Journal and the editor thereof to "go to hell." We warn him, however, that his Invitation will not be accepted, we prefer to Bend regrets and thus avoid the possibility of again running across Abbott after having parted from him here In Oregon.

Senator Joseph again took occasion this morning to hint his suspicions of tho good Intentions of President Ma larkoy with respect to a vote cast by tho presiding olllcer. The anger of the president was aroused and for a time an Interesting clash between the Mult nomah solons seemed Imminent. Jo seph nnd Kellaher who have been dis trustful of the president from the op ening day of the session, are wanting no opportunities to prod Mularkey to the quick, Senator Smith's bill relntlng to Il legal practices at elections was up for third reading. The bill failed to carry. Joseph was one of tho warm support- tors of the mensuro and Malarkey, whose namo Is always the last called by the clerk also voted for the bill. "But you knew that your vote would not change the result, didn't you?" said Joseph sarcastically. "What has that to do with the ques tion?" Malarkey retorted, flushing with anger. "It's Just a notion I got," answered Joseph with a knowing grin. "Well, you are In the habit of get ting some queer notions. I ask you again what has that to do with tho question?" insisted Malarkey. "Oh, It Just came into my head," Joseph replied. Falling to get an extended explana tion from Joseph, the president did not press the matter further. Hits Corruption Art. The aim of the bill Is to strengthen the corrupt practices act by taking further steps to prevent the illegiti mate expenditure of money In cam paigns. Those supporting the meas ure called attention to the Bourne and the Selling campaigns In particular. Dlmlck said that Selling had received contributions from sources outside the Btate nnd that clubs had spent Bourne money and reported the expenditure as their own money. "It Is a question of clean politics and of putting the poor man on an equal basis politically with tho rich man," doclarod Dlmlck. Senator Butler fought the bill. He i doolnred that the election of Harry Lane has proven the efficiency of the present law. For Voting Machines. Senator Joseph's bill providing a clause enabling counties or municipal ities to purchase voting mnchlnes passed the senate with one dissenting vote. Dlmlck attempted to have the bill I Weir nearni nnn development. un amended to apply to counties of 200,- . words, the baby wns simply; a side- 000 population or over, He declared that If the hill becomes a law voting tinnlilniiu if 11 1 lift 1 1 1 1 roll H Sfi1 fill fiVPT tho slate In Places where thev are not needed merely because officials will be unable to resist smooth ngens of vot lug mnchlnn companies. Senators But ler and Moser assisted Joseph in de bating for tho bill. Butler snld that It would only be a matter of time until tho machines are needed In many counties where they are not now need ed, nnd that It would be foolish. to limit tho law. School I,n w rnclinnged. Senator Smith of Coos nnd Curry fulled to carry his bill removing tho property qualification for voters In school elections, the possession of chil dren of school ngo nnd rltlzenshlp of the United States.

FOR BETTER BABIES Working for Better Cattle, Corn and Tigs, Then Why Not Also Have Better Bailies. In the March Woman's Home Com panion appears the first complete re port of a great campaign that Is springing up with astonishing virility a campaign for "Better BableB." A year or two ago a woman in Iowa. Mrs. Mary T. Hntts, conceived the Idea thnt In her Btate the principal enthusiasm among the people was for better cattle, better corn and better hogs. At the county and state fairs there were occasional "baby shows," but the whole purpose was to pick out and reward babies for their beauty and attractiveness, rather than for tnov' eniennmnieni, aim nui iuuch seriously, while in every otner ex hibit science ruled, nnd the object was " cultivate knowledge of the best ""VB lu '"u,,mo " Mrs. Watts saw thnt Iowa was ne glecting her most valuable crop her crop of baliles. With the co-operation of a physician, Dr. M. V. Clnrk, she organized a real baby contest. Tho object wns to nward prizes to those children who made the best physlcnl showing. Dr. Clnrk prepared sore cards, the principal Hems of which were adapted from the cardB used In Judging cnttle and animals of vnrious kinds. These cards formed the basis of a scientific Inquiry calculated to reveal the physical and mental effi ciency of the child examined. The results of this first contest were nppalllng. They showed thnt Iowa had better corn and cnttle than . mfnt )(J ft w(lp Btm)y of a )oge mnt. tors that concern the care of children diet, clothes, baths, nnd so on. One child who had received a low mark ing In the first contest won a prize nt the second, because tho mother had cnrrled out the suggestions ns to the child's diet and care, which she never would have heard of had It not been for the aroused Btate of tho public mind. This year 3ii states hnve nlrendy ar ranged to hold scientific baby Bhows In connection with live stock Bhows and sinte fairs. Women's clubs, news papers nnd physicians are nwnke, and one of tho most Important world movements hns begun.
