FAMINE IN JAPAN.

President Roosevelt has issued a call
to the people of the country for a popu-
lar subscription in aid Of the residents
of northern Japan. 1t is reported that,
because of the almost complete failure
of the rice crop. more than 2,0O0, eco jap
anese are in danger of starving to
death. The probability IS that the
United States viii respond generously
to the call, for it never fails to respond
in such cases.
However. there will at the same time
be a feeling that we don't owe the
japanese a great deal They had our
sympathy during the war with Russia
and it meant q good deal to them. IN
return for our good viii in that conflict,
if reports be true. the Japanese have
been doing everything in their power

Direct Legislation.

the system of direct legislation in
Oregon at the June election the
Oregonian says:
The questions balloted upon by
direct vote were not party issues.
They stood or fell upon their
merits alone. They were studied
without factionaI prejudice, and
decided, we may fairly suppose,
solely with reference to the public
good. 1t is one of the greatest
merits of the initiative and refer
endum that it makes possible n
clesr separation between local and
national issues. Under the older
system, which still prevails in
giost of the states, the people could
express their opinion upon such
matter AS the Barlow toll road
purchase only by their choice of
Legislators. In determining this
choice, numerous other questions
necessarily played part. Which
party the candidate belonged to.
how he stood ON the local option
question, upon woman suffrage,
and many other matters, would all
unite to confuse the mind of the
voter. and he could never express
himself clearly, directly and ak
clusively upon any particular
point. The method Of the initia-
tive aud referendum permits each
voter to express his ind,vual opin-
ion upon every question standing
entirely by itself and without sd-
mixture Of personal or partisan
biaa- The heavy vote up
on the questions submitted TO the
referendum and the decisive ma
jorities by which they were &C
cepte'l or rejected prove that the
Oregon system has solved the
problem Of interesting the voters
in the dry details Of government
Hitherto they have shown little
interest IN these matters because
their opinion WAS only Of indirect
and doubtful consequence. In
this election the vote upon abstract
laws and matters Of pure finance
WAS quite ~ large aud enthusins,ic
~ upon the Governor. The ref
-r"ndum bills and the amendments
were disposed Of by msjoritie-
ranging from 10000 to 10000
showing that the people had stud,

their minds. A small, scattering.

gods. The only thing which can be
admired in the democratic state cam
paign is the brazen effrontery with
which it attempts to deceive and mis-
lead the voters and 10 abuse their con-
fidence.
The party has attempted to rally its
adherents around the standard OF a
pretended reform which is as false
as it is infamous. Had not the falss-
hood OF its pretensions been exposed
it would in all probability have drawn
unto itself few OF the opposition.
But once the mask has been removed
and the deception exposed the party
has even become more brazen in its
admission that it wants the help OF
republicans TO destroy the work OF the
republican party. Can any republican
seriously lend his aid and give his
vote 10 the accomplishment of this

gines possessed OF thirty or forty
horse power and drawing a train of
wagons.
The plan would of course involve
the construction of high grade roads
and the keeping of them in proper re-
pair. But this would not be very
difficult proposition in country as
level as the grain producing regions
are. and with the advantages which
they possess in the way of roadbed
structure it would not be difficult to
build roads which could be traversed
by engines pulling half dozen way
ons
1t must be admitted that one of the
important things in the enlargement
of the farming industries OF the coun-
try is the lowering of the cost of hand
ling the grain after it is threshed.
There is Il fixed cost for a consider
able quantity of the labor and other
things which enter into the produc-
ton of IA crop. One of the heavy
items in the handling of the crop as
we'll as the raising is the cost Of keep
ing the stock necessary to operate a
large farm through the winter season
when there is nothing in the way of
productive work for such stock to do.
Some method must be devised by
which the cost OF keeping stock for
operating expenses on the farm can
be reduced.
There seems to be but one way and
that is the substitution OF some other
power on the farm. This is already
being done on some farms with con-
siderable saving Of cost. The traction
plow is becoming 4 common farm i'm
plement rather than a novelty. The
reduction of the need OF horse power
for threshing purposes is being in
industriously sought after The trac-
ton engine for doing the work OF
twenty horses in blowing is simple
1t is just as simple to use the same
power for the hauling of the grain to
market.
The reduction of the cost of fuel
under the provisions of the denatured
alcohol law will be one of the great
things which will solve the matter of
cheapened motive power on the farm.
The coming of the traction engine will
destroy the horse industry to some
extent but this will be more than bal
anced by the reduction in the cost of
farm operations.
