MUST TURN TO THE DEMOCRATS

1t is becoming palmer every day that
upon the democratic party Of this state
will devolve the duty and the RESPONSE
bility of giving the people a legisla-
ture and a governor that will meet the
demand of the people of both parties
for an effective railway commission to
regulate rates and fares, prevent ex-
tortiOn or discrimination and fix a fair
taxable valuation on railroad prop
erty.
Nothing can be expected of the re-
publican party in the way Of reform.
If by accident a republican governor
should be sincerely in favor of proper
regulation and just taxation of rail-
roads and all other corporations, he
is sure to be handicapped by a legis-
lature that will make all his efforts
in behalf of the people unavailing. The
republican organization is married to
the corporations in the state and the
nation and there is no hope of it's ever
getting a divorce. It's campaign cor
ruption funds, upon which it depends
for success at the polls, come from cor
porations to which special privileges
have been granted, and it is not rea-
sOnable to expect the party to turn
against its patrons and benefactOrs. 1t
is for this reason that a republican ad-
ministra ton cannot be expected to
make effective warfare upon trusts and
it is for this reason that the republic
can party in this state cannot be ex
pected to make sincere effort to reg
ulate the railroads through commits
sion. The railroads now have ii hold
over republicans in the state senate
who can be depended upon to vote
against any commission bill not ap-
proved by the lobby. By electing four
or five more senators of the same sort
the railroads can block an appointive
commission bill in spite of all that the
governor and the house can do in it's
favor.
If the people of the state wish to
make sure of commission they should
elect only democrats to both houses of
the Legislature and a democratic gov
ernor to aid in passing the laws de-
manded for the regulation of corpora
tons. The republican organization is
corrupted throughout by the faint of
Stevenson's lobby and nothing in the
way of reform can be expected of that
party until it has been forced to purge
humiliation Of the overwhelming defeat
that it deserves.

MUST HAVE BEEN DREAMING.

1t was no doubt great surprise to
readers of the morning paper to learn
that we have had a winter unprece-
dented in this latitude, so far as the
average memory goes, in point of con-
tinuous severity and resulting hard
ships and that the long and trying
winter has had wearing and depress-
ing effect upon the vitality Of people
in general, particularly upon the poor
er classes, whose hygienic environ
ments have been unfavorable"
That sort of winter prevailed in
The lowest point reached by the mer-
curry here was II above zero. Although
we have had more rain than usual
since February, the weather conditions
have not been marked by severity and
there has been little hardship among
the poorer classes or anywhere else
During the whole winter there was not
snow enough for sleighing, except fol
few hours one night in December.
The vitality of Walla Walla people
is by no means depressed after theil
mild winter. In fact physicians re-
port that there is very little sickness
at the present time and that ailments
are usually of a minor class.
The writer of the Unions leadine
editorial this morning must have beer
dreaming, for nobody else in this com.
munity was aware that we had pass.

from the states east of the Rockies
and If published in eastern papers the,

II Is just possible that the meteoro.

morning paper are more frigid thar
elsewhere in the city. but certain,,
there should not be such a wide diver.

LO-RUSSIAN ENTENTE.

The Tibetan incident is not disturb
ing the Russian authorities, as they
are reported to be sanguine Of secur-
ing an understanding with England,
which will permanently settle the
boundary question in Asia between
the two Asiatic powers.
A foreign news agency vOuches for
the correctness of it's information in
this direction and inricates that King
Edward himself is actively laboring
to that end. Some of the rumors cur
rent are that the basis of the entente

Persian gulf, which England has

of a Russian invasion of India from

to give up her own designs on Tibet.

The trouble with the streets in the
residence districts of this city is that
they are left to take care of themselves
after being once graded. East Alder
street was graded twenty years ago and
no work has been done upon 1T since.
No wonder that it's condition is SO
wretched and deplorable. Country
roads are worked every year and at
least as much should be done for all
city streets. 1t was a common remark
during the last winter that the country
roads were in better condition than the
city streets and the reason of this was
plain enough. The city needs a regu-
lar system of looking after the cOndi-
ton of every street and Of giving it
what it needs.

ATHLETICS AS AN AID TO MORALS

The Illustrated Sporting News says:
When the Reverend Perry Stickney
Grant prescribed compulsory physical
training for the uplifting of the moral
character OF children of the New York
east side in his address last week, be-
fore the League of Political Education,
he struck the keynote to the whole sit
uation. If law could be enacted MAX
ing a regular course Of physical train
ing in the public schools obligatory a
tremendous move in the direction of
uplifting the poorer classes could be
made. Dr. Grant has had peculiar ad-
vantages for studying the condition of
the children of the slums and the tene-
ments, and, being an athlete himself
and a man of unusual mentality and
erudition, his remarks have great
value. In part, he said:
Ten years after l left college there
were $50 men in Harvard stronger
than any man in my class. This was
due entirely to the interest wrought in
the athletic and gymnasium work, and
it is these men, with strong, perfect
bodies, who are making the leading
