THREE years ago on March 25, 1911, the lives of 148 workers, mostly boys and girls, were blotted out in the fire at the Triangle shirt waist factory, in New York. Nobody was punished, despite the fact that it was shown that the company had blocked all the fire escapes with sewing machines in order to take advantage of the room and to save a few paltry dollars in rent. Suits were brought by parents for the loss of the children, and these suits have been dragged through the courts for three years, simply because the company has plenty of money, and the parents have none. The machinery of the courts has been used to thwart justice, and now worn out by the law's delays, the company is settling with the relatives for $75 for each person burned to death by its criminal careless ness. The courts are laying up trouble for themselves, and before many years the lawyers will be made to understand that law stands for justice, and not as a means by which heartless attor neys can commit crimes against the people and the state. This company pays $2100 for a job lot of 28 deaths. The shame of it rises to heaven. JUST MERELY A SUGGGESTION. UCII complaint has been made about the number of boards and commissions now required to run the state government, and, while these complaints have some foundation, the limit has not, in all probability, been reached. The game commission cost last year $137,000, but this wiH not happen again, so there is no use crying about it. It is spilt milk, so to speak, anyway. The possibilities along the commission line still remaining are that those desiring a fat place at the public crib need not worry. As an illustration : Recently some one suggested that, in order to get the best results from hens, in the way of egg product, that it was necessary to keep the hens amused. This opens up a field so far unfilled. Why not have a commission for the amusement and encouragement of Oregon hens? Why not get out a license for keeping hens and so create a fund out of which to furnish moving picture shows to the cackling biddies and provide individual pianolas for each hencoop, at the state's expense? This is merely a suggestion, and does not pretend to elaborate on the subject. It is one of vast possibilities. In con versation with Mayor Tozier, of the State Fair Camp Ground, recently, he said that the state put a hundred young salmon into the rivers for every salmon taken out, and discussed the question as to where they go and what becomes of them. Without indors ing the idea, he suggested that it might be because the hatchery fry were born in captivity, and were so gentle and affectionate in disposition that they did not fear anything, and that hence when turned loose to look out for themselves they fell an easy prey to Canadian land sharps and others with winning ways and alluring wiles. We do not pretend to say that this is the true explanation of the matter, but we suggest that here is a fine field for further exploitation. Why not have a commission for the purpose of teaching young salmon the ways of the world? Why not make it a part of its duties to see that the small fry are thoroughly scared of any and everything? Why not have miniature falls where they may learn to leap, and dodge at the sight of man? Why not hang a sample ballot of the coming primaries at their feeding places, and make them shudder at the sight of anything yellow? This is only a suggestion, that can bo enlarged upon in definitely. We suggest that "The Commission for the Amuse ment of Oregon Hens During Their Laying and Incubating Son son" and the "Commission for Scaring and Making Intractable the Salmon Fry at the State Hatcheries" would each have a so norous ring to it and would fill a long-felt want. If not whv not? OREGONIAN MISSTATES FACTS. THE Oregonian of yesterday had an editorial in which the following sUtement was printed as the basis of n long winded attack on President Wilson's foreign pol icy: But Senator Jones, in his speech on Wednesday, showed these reasons for repeal to be contradicted by the other reason given by the President that he will not know how to escape from his other foreign difficulties if this concession is not made. Mr. Jones showed a close relation to exist between the canal tolls Lapp &Busm, Bankers Transact a General Banking Business Safety Deposit Boxes Traveler's Checks policy and the Mexican policy. Mr. Wilson had stated that no message in favor of repealing coastwise exemption would be sent to congress, but the very day after he had held a confer ence with Sir Lionel Carden, the British minister to Mexico, he announced that he would orally deliver such a message. That message contained the significant reference to "other matters of even greater delicacy and nearer consequence.' The inference is unavoidable that his allusion was to Mexico. The natural con clusion is that what Mr.. Wilson learned from Sir Lionel as to conditions in Mexico impressed him with the early probability that he would need British support of our Mexican policies and British aid in preventing interference by other powers, and that, in order to incline Great Britain to give this aid, he pro posed repeal of toll exemption. Finding ourselves unable to maintain the Monroe doctrine in face of European hostility and a Japanese menace, we are to take England as an ally in main tenance of that doctrine. x This is a characteristic Oregonian trick to make a falsehood the basis of a plausible argument to sustain its position, when an honest statement of the' facts would put the matter in an entire ly different light. Senator Jones did make certain statements referred to by the Oregonian, but on the floor of the senate the next day withdrew them, admitting that he was misinformed, the press dispatches crediting the senator with saying: "The president assures me that there was no basis of fact in the articles I referred to to warrant the conclusions with regard to this government and its relations with Great Britain in the matter. I think I was misunderstood in that I did not draw the conclusions myself, but took them from newspaper reports. I think it only just to the president that I make this statement, because I do not want to misrepresent anybody." The Oregonian will, of course, overlook Senator Jones' later statement and give publicity only to his intemperate, political harangue, which he was quick to apologize for when he cooled off and realized what a fool he had made of himself. The editors of the Willamette valley are being entertained in Salem today. This attention to the members of the press on the part of the Commercial club is a fitting tribute to th e men who are doing more than all other agencies to promote the welfare and growth of Oregon. Always boosting, ever optimistic, and never losing sight of the better things the future has in store, the editors are doing a work that deserves the commendation of every class of citizenship. The Capital City is honored by their presence here today. One of our exchanges wants to know where the glory will be in a war with Mexico.
