HOUSE FORECAST.

Washington ID. c.. April 3.-There IS
little in the way of the programme for
the House this week. Everything
awaits upon the Presidents message,
and the momentous events which are TO
follow its presentation. Tomorrow the
bill for the reorganization of the army
is to be called up. Chairman Hull. OF
the military committee, believes it will
be passed without opposition. 1t is con-
sidered a part of the war preparations,
and as such its urgency would preclude
the opposition which it might encounter
in ordinary times.
The Senate District of Columbia Naval
Battalion bill is on the Speakers table.
and it, too. may be passed. Tuesday and
Friday are private bill days. The de-
ficiency appropriation bin is almost
ready and could be considered any time
after Wednesday If the message does
not come in on that day.

OUR INTERESTS IN THE PACIFIC.

OF annexation than anyone else. 10 is

ginning ofa new era In their political,
commercial and social'hlstory. Rep

THE CAUSE OF REFORM IN
OREGON.

OREGON.
THE JOURNAL would haye rejoiced
To see the entire Union ticket elected.
The people OF Oregon would have been
benefited by complete cleaning out
OF the augean stables OF their state
government and striking u badly
needed balance eet In their public
affairs. But H. was to be otherwise.
What future Is there for the Reform
cause and for the Union party in Ore
gon The Reform and Union ele-
ments present q sOlldly organized mass
Of voters who are IN majority In
many counties. The general defeat
Ia the last June election hurt no
honest supporter OF Reform and the
Union. 1t simply retired some self
constituted temporary leaders who re-
garded :he Union as an opportunity
OF getting into Office, while the voters
thought otherwise. Out OF the voting
ranks OF the Union have disappeared
all who we're insIncerc or not well
grounded In their opposition to pre-
sent tendencies in the dominant
party.
What OF the future Of reform In
Oregon What shall be the course of
the minority OF "a members In the
legislature who represent the. Union
We must confess we are not hopeful.
The legislature Is the worst place to
send man expecting 10 get any good
work out OF him. The pay is small
The temptations TO plunder are large.
The corruption flowing In through
senatorial contests would taInt the
virtue OF n saint. The chances to do
foolish things are innumerable.
There is one thing the "a Union mem
bers could d.. They can take the oath
OF office, unite for fundamental re-
form measures, participate IN none OF
the extravaganza or folly that Repub-
licans will practice, and go home like
honest men. No; we don't know
about that. IL Is too much TO expect.
To Il man who looks at reform pol.
tiles from the standpoint OF govern
menu the people, the view presented
makes him 10 doubt the outcome OF
our civilization. Read the papers OF
all parties and you must conclude that
this il about as far from being gov.
