In answering the Weston Leaders
criticism on its opposition to the ap-

School the Oregonian says that the
state is not under obligation to train
people for any public profession. The
Oregonian must either. "crawfish" in
this statement, or flatly deny the
need and utility of the entire public
school system. If the public school
system is right and proper, as a pub
lie institution, then it is absolutely
right and proper for the state to say
what training teachers for the public
schools shall receive. If the standard
of the public school is to be main
tanned, the state shall say what ad-
yances shall be made in the science
of teaching, and not leave this choice
to private schools But if the public

LET THE TYRANT BEWARE.


Although the people of Oregon, by
their sovereign ballots, passed a bind
ing and constitutional local option
law last June. and by the same SOW
ereign ballots in November, in many
counties and subdivisions, put this
law into execution, yet the liquor in
terests, using every ruse and loop
hole of law, aided by the quibbllng
of attorneys and the prejudice of bus
mess interests, are setting this law
aside. wherever possible, in their de-
termination to override the will of
the people and defy the official edicts
of society.
In Gillian county the excuse for
setting the law aside was that the
election was called at a special ses-
sion of the county court, in Clatsop,
that the county court failed to re-
cord a specific order stating that pro-
hibition carried in certain precinct,
and in Umatilla county that similar
technical and absolutely irrelevant
order was not recorded by the county
court, although the people by their
votes have said emphatically that
they wish prohibition in North Milton
ipreclnct i"t
/ If attorneys, courts and business
Interests" persist in setting at naught
the will of the people on such trivial
/ grounds they will only hasten the
day when the people will put into
effect local option law that will be
binding. a law without much regard
to metes and bounds but which will
seal up the state of oregon tight as
Jug.
The tyranny of the saloon in poll
tics, business and society, has reach
! ed the limit in this state. Aided by
willing attorneys, encouraged by bus
mess men, who should have more
selfrespect, and strengthened by
courts too long subservient to the
political bosses, the arrogance of the
liquor interests in municipal and
state affairs has become intolerable
to thinking men.
Let the courts ana business inter-
ests beware of the people. Let the
law passed by the people be executed
with as little friction as possible. Let
those communities choosing prohibi-
ton have prohibition.
Every time the will of the people
in any precinct is overthrown, by ap-
peal to the courts, it clinches the pro-
hibition sentiment that much tighter
and hastens more rapidly the day OF
absolute prohibition in the entire
state.

WATCH THE LEGISLATURES.

I There is one vital and critical issue
before, the Oregon legislature upon
which the honor. character and fu-
ture careers of the members from
Eastern Oregon, at least. are at stake.
This issue is the irrigation law.
The need of revised Irrigation laws
has been indelibiy impressed upon
the people of Eastern oregon and es-
pecially upon the members of the leg
islature, by the repeated statements
of the reclamation department, to the
effect that Oregon need not expect
government irrigation until she at
tunes herself to the goth century
codes on this subject, as other states
have done.
On this one single issue hangs the
question of the expenditure of at
least $3,OOO,OOO in this state, in gov
ernment works in the next three or
four years. Oregon has contributed
nearly million dollars more than
any other Western state, to the rec
Iamation fund, and now shall this
fund be driven to other states by the
greed of private companies which are
now seeking to control the legisla-
ture? F,a - sr-
The people Of Oregon, and espec-
tally the people of Eastern Oregon
counties, where the arid belt lies,
should keep their searchlights train
ed on their members. This is time
when the mettles. of the legislature
will be exposed and put to test. Every
man will go on record for the state
or for the private companies, now
seeking to prevent the passage of

of this state, by the heads of the rec
lamation department and all the
forces working for improved law on
this subject, is not a satisfactory Law
for the people and the state at large

When 1 came out was advised to try

broken out with blisters and was covered
