\ BALANCED COURT.

The sentiment for a mixed supreme
court, politically, is one of the most
marked tendencies OF public sentf-
ment in Oregon today.
All fair-minded men agree that the
supreme court should be strictly nom
partisan. All agree that the best in!
terests of the state and the best in
terests of litigants who must come
before the court will be served by a
mixed court.
Judges and justices are but hu-
man, and all men who follow a GER
tain line of thinking for lifetime
become more or less fixed and preju-
diced in their views. In order to se-
cure unbiased, absolutely fair views
on all subjects which come before the
court, a diversity of thinking, a di-
versity of outlook is necessary. And
this can only be secured through a
mixture of the political complexion
of the supreme court.
With this strong tendency in view
Justice T. G.. HALEY, who is now on
the supreme bench by appointment,
and who is the democratic nominee,
has an excellent prospect for election.
The other members of the court are
republican. His election would give
that body fair political balance.

ART AS AN AD WRITER.

Artistic decoration of motor cars is
the rage in Paris, and several famous
artists have not disdained to design
panels for rich owners who could af-
ford a high priced article of decora-
tion. The panels generally show the
heraldic emblems of the owners. But
many are decorated with fine rural
scenes or bit from mythology. Some
of the wealthy have gone in for the
old-time decorations, such as appear
ed on the stage coaches of their
grandfathers. Up to this time the
Ideous numbers that have to be car
ried on cars have successfully thwart-
ed the best artists. They say It can
never be made less hldeous than the
law has made 1.-THE Argonaut.

WILL REFLECT TOM WORD.

Portland republicans are register
ing as democrats by the score in or
der to be able to assist in the re-
nomination of Tom Word for the Of
flee of sheriff in Multnomah county.
The rank and file of decent people
admire Word and his administration
of law enforcement in Portland, Do
spite the slandering and abuse OF the
Oregonian and its nasty ring of politi-
cal parasites.
1t is a compliment to Word that he
was elected as democratic sheriff in
such a stronghold of the opposition.
1t is complimentary to him that de-
cent republicans are registering as
democrats in order to help re-nomin-
ate him. The same republicans will
vote for him at the June election.
Word has done his share toward
making Portland decent. He has un-
falteringly performed his duties, re-
gardless of who's who" In Portland.
He has raided and run out the big
gambling concerns until life is par
ticularly miserable for them in Port
land. And in all his official career
he has not been charged with graft
ing or playing to the galleries.
He has simply performed his duty.
The people admire him for 1t and will
re-elect him without doubt. He de-

ing should be considered and dis
posed of before any Indebtedness is
incurred for any other street work.
The improvement of East Court
street is needed. It is true, but since
street paving on the two principal
business streets is more necessary,
and since it is under discussion and
in fair way to be secured, let all
the efforts of the council be bent
upon starting paving.
1t is useless to put 1t off further.
The council has exhausted every pos
sible means of opposition. The peo-
pie want paving and It will not be-
come the council to so embarrass the
city in any way, that paving will be
impossible this season.
Another winter should not find
Pendleton unprepared Her streets
during the past winter have been a
disgrace to the property owners and
to the city officials. Paving is with
in reach. Let us pave the streets now
and build the East Court street
driveway afterward.
Why this anxiety to plunge into the
improvement of East Court street
now, on such brief notice, after the
paving question has absorbed the
council so long?

RESERVATION RENTS.

Rent for wheat land on the UNA
tilla reservation should always be
gauged by the price of wheat in the
current year and not on past prices.
The price of rent this spring should
be fixed according to the springs
wheat prices, and not by prices which
prevailed in the high tide of two years
ago.
The agent in fixing rents must bear
this in mind. The best results will
come to the Indian as the farmer pros
pers and enjoys his lease of reserva-
ton lands. If the price of rent is ar
bitrarily held up when the price of
wheat is forced down by the depressed
market, the farmer cannot afford to
take the risk.
Wheat is now but slightly over so
cents per bushel in Pendleton and ye,
the same rent is being charged which
prevailed when wheat was IS cents
per bushel two years ago. This is un-
fair to the farmer and TO the Indian
for the welfare of the Indian de-
pends upon the success of the farmer
The agent is interested in securing
the highest possible price for the res
ervation wheat lands, it is true. but
the world wheat market must be the
only fair and just gauge for rent
prices. If the white farmer finds his
wheat market shattered and depress.
cd the red land owner must share the
depreciation of wheat values. If the
white farmer prospers under good
market conditions. the red land owner
is entitled to a share of that prosper.

the standard of reservation rents.
Farmers cannot afford to pay rem

cent wheat, when wheat drops to 81
cents, with little prospect of it ex
periencing any perceptible advance.

A PLEA.

Speak gently to the millionaire,
oh do not be unkind.
You know he has lot of care
And trouble on his mind.
He cannot see the humor which
Inspired your merry chaff.
He's been so busy getting rich
He hasn't time to laugh.
He has to labor night and day
Our college folk to tell
The way to make their wisdom pay
And also how to spell.
Don't jeer with saturnine intent
The wealth that brings him fame.
1t may have been an accident
For which he's not to blame.

TEXAS WANTS MANUFACTURERS

Asbury Park, n. j., July 1S.-The
State Association of Master Painters
and Decorators opened here today at
the Beach Auditorium with an unus-
ually large attendance, representing
every part of the state. Questions of
much Importance to the association
and the trade in general will be dis
cussed and there Will be addresses
which promise TO be highly interest
ing. One of the important matters to
be brought up for consideration is the
proposed law providing for the estab-
lishment of trade schools in the large
cities of the state. The Master Paint
ers and Decorators intend to work for
this bill at the next legislature pro-
vided the convention approves of the
plan.
For a long time there has been a
dearth of skilled labor in the painting
trade in this country, most of the
iourneymen having been supplied
from the ranks of the foreign popu-
lation. 1t is felt that the trade schools
would tend 10 foster the growth of ma
tive talent and therefore give the
American youth a chance 10 compete

from Cincinnati an additional check
was presented TO him.
This is the second time that Mr.
Murray has been so honored. A sim

when he was editor of the Price Cur

OF the packing industry presented him
with purse of $1,000 in gold for a
visit to the old country.
Before his departure from Cincin-
natl Mr. Murray was rendered a din
ner at the Business Mems club of
Cincinnati, and on that occasion was
presented with a fine RookwOOd vase
containing sixty nine American Beau
ty roses, the number representing Mr.
Murray's age at his last birthday in
June.

long rest from his ceaseiess. labors,
and, appreciating his faithful services
as we'll as his upright and unostenta-
t.Ous character, they decided to ten
Ger 10 him a token of their esteem

through it's president, l. L. Sadler,
