STATEMENT NO. 1
TICKET INVINCIBLE.

The Salem Journal says OF the sue
cess OF the statement No. / ticket In
Marion county:
1t is very doubtful II men OF any
party can be found to run against
statement No. ticket IL II is ratified
at the primary election on April II.
This is not because democrats want
to help republicans but because there
Is vast majority of people of both
parties who want to take the selection
of United States senators entirely out
of the hands of the legislature.
But there is a greater principle in
volved within the republican party
itself
1t is well known fact that the So
called leaders in the party at Portland
and over the state deliberately started
out to make the legislative tickets
themselves in old-fashloned conven-
tions.
That was the plan in Marion coun-
ty, and II did not fail for lack inten-
ton on the part OF the machine lead
ers.
1t failed because there was too
much sentiment among the rank and
file against the proposition.
On a showdown in a convention
called by the machine leaders, and
composed OF delegates largely of their
own selection, three out of four re-
publicans in Marion county were OPP
posed to a return to the old methods
of making up a legislative ticket.
The number who believe in return
ing to. the. old convention ways is very
small and growing smaller.
The bloody scenes enacted in the
republican and democratic conven-
tions held this year in Illinois, Ten
.nessee. Indiana, Kentucky and other
states brand the convention system as
having outlived its usefulness.
The statement No. l ticket for the
legislature in this county has been put
up in spite of the threat of the lead
ers to knife suchS ticket.

WONIEN'S WORK.

In the pamphlet sent out by the
state of Oregon to all voters this
spring are arguments for and against
the various initiative measures pro-
posed. In this book the women of
oregon have made a most eloquent
and just appeal for the right to vote
and if Oregon respects its mothers
and wives. that right will be confer
red at the June election.
Woman's work in the state is ham
dicapped by the denial of the right
OF suffrage. They are active factors
in every sphere and yet when it comes
to the vital test they stand with hands
tied and eyes blinded in the political
arena.
AS teachers. as charity workers, as
juvenile workers, as directors OF
health and sanitary departments OF
the cities. as managers of large bus
mess enterprises and as taxpayers
they are efficient and ever ready with
their hands and brains to assist in
lettering human conditions-but as a
voter. man selfishly arrogates all the
power to himself.
Ask your own manhood if it Is just
Talk with yourself about It.

WASTE OF POWER.

Enough electrical power is wasted
every day by the idle flow of the
Umatilla river to light every home
ard turn every wheel in Umatilla
county, If this immense power were
conserved and utilized.
This power could be generated
without diminishing or retarding the
stream an iota. Every inch of water
now used for irrigation and water
power would still be available. The
only change in conditions of the river
would be that it would be diverted
b turn the wheels of electric motors,
to flow back into its original channel
urdiminished, unchanged, unpolluted.
The gigantic forces of mountain
streams and the necessity of saving
the forests to protect these streams is
graphically illustrated in an article in
the April Review of Reviews by
Thomas E. VIII. He says in part on
this subject:
Water power in the south is a
mighty economic factor Its utility
has been greatly increased by the per-
fection of agencies for transmitting
electricity. Most southern railroads
are built on ridges. Mills, located be-
side these railways, may now be driven
by electric power generated from
waterfalls on remote streams. In
consequence, electricity has become
"the power behind the south"
Under present conditions the
streams of the southern Appalachians
afford a minimum of 2,74O,OOO horse
power. This may be increased from
three to 80 times by development Of
the storage facilities of streams. OF
the minimum power at least so per
cent is available for economic devel-
opment.
The rental of 1850, 900 horsepower
per annum is worth s27,OOO,OOO, at
$40 per horsepower. Adding to this
the possible revenue of the remaining
so per cent of power for but half the
year gives a total rental value Of
$4,000 900. ~
For the utilization Of this power
the forest, as balance-wheel to
stream-flow, is absolutely indispensa-
bic. No system Of reservoirs, how
ever expensive, can more than sup
plement the forest. In no way can it
supply the forests place.
Said United states photographer
Leighton to the agricultural commit
tee: 1.-THE reservoirs will not be worth
a minutes time, or a cent Of money,
unless the forests are retained" In
both New England and the south for
est-cutting has already seriously i'm
paired the usefulness Of water-power
Dams are filling in; to such an ex-
tent in one case reported, as to de.
crease the power from to 10 pei
cent, and in another from Is to 2C
uer cent Electric mower once suf
ficient, now has to be supplemented
by steam.

LET US START THE MILL.

Pendleton woolen mill has been
idle long enough Somebody should
start that excellent institution. There
is good profit in 1t. 1t is in the heart
of the wool country. There is mar
ket for its product, The old stock
which was manufactured before the
shutdown is now exhausted. There
is a sharp demand for new stock.
Labor, wool, fuel and capital can
be secured now in abundant quanti-
ties and it seems a shame to keep the
mill standing still with all these ia
vorable conditions beckoning the
wheels to start.
The capacity of the five looms
would be about 40 robes per day.
These robes are worth about 81 each,
retail, making a return Of $3.50 per
day to this city. About $40 per day
would be paid out in salaries. This
would return directly into the chan
nels of trade. The mill would con-
sumo thousands of pounds of choice
wool. This would be bought at an
advance over the regular wool prices
in this county.
Everything seems favorable for the
opening of the mill.

FREEDOMS SONG.

When freedom rent the veil Of night
And gave our land its holy light,
She sent an angel bearer down
with heavens stars our flag to crown
And thus our banner waves on high
Gods emblem of the azure sky!
To Him. as guide. our flags unfurled
a thousand years to light the world
And while free soils beneath our feet
In war or wisdom none compete;
Great God. our Ruler and our King,
To Thee we pray, to Thee we sing.
Bear up our flag with mighty wing
And grant this nation to Thee clingr
Until our flag in freedoms plight
Is emblem Of eternal right.
This glorious banner of the free,
Thou honOred flag of liberty,
Unfurl tiny colors at their height,
And give all nations Of Thy Light.

Had the East oregonian known the
inside facts concerning the deal which
Mr.. Geer is alleged to have made with
II. b. Plummer of Polk county for the
sale of the office of superintendent of
the Oregon penitentiary to Mr.. Plum
mer for the sum of $1,000, this paper
would never have indorsed Mr., Geer
for the United states senate or any
other office.
II he made that deal, as would APP
pear from affldavts, he is absolutely
unfit to hold any office in the gift
Of the people and should be relegated
to the oblivion of politics to which
that act should condemn him.
If Mr. Geer' would bargain and sell
the patronage of the governors Of
flee would he not deal in a like man
ner with the office of representative
in congress? In fact, could the people
of Oregon think of electing to any
high office a man against whom this
accusation stall stands unchallenged?
The affidavit of the deputy sheriff
who heard the deal made between
Governor Geer and Sheriff Plummer
Is published without comment, that

TRANSMITTING POWER BY WIRE

THE romance Of travel and the romance OF
L industry are curiously blended IN the an
nouncement lately made in the press tina. tne
Sultan OF Johore has contracted tor an electric
plant to cost nearly a million dollars Inc
very name Of Iohore, little state at the top
Of the Malay Peninsula, carries the flavor OF
the stored East air,
At the same time. there IS nothing III / ne
Thousand and One Nights more wonderful
than the fact that a plant of the nature re-
ferred to will transmit the power OF HVe
thousand horses some ninety-elght miles over
three copper wires the size OF an ordinary leau
pencil. . .,,,s
1t IS said that the first experiment in thus
Transmitting power was made at a MN III
Rhode Island which was about to be aDah-
doned as inaccessible, when some one Su8-
qested stretching a wire from dam f1Ve miles
away The plan succeeded. other millllen
miners. lighting companies and munlclpah,
ties adopted IT, A single corporation engaged
IN the manufacture Of power transmitting
machinery last year put forth apparatus I"
the value Of ten million dollars.
THIS showed record breaking development >
for the first years business OF the same cor
poration in 1903 was only one-tltteth as large.
The Sultan's great plant, which Will carry the
force Of a cascade TO the Government gold
mines, marks development IN still another
direction. The greatest distance over Whlch
power is now regularly transmitted IS about
eighty-three miles,-from kedlands to Los
Angeles, California, where 1t runs a street rail-
way lights the streets, and performs other
services.
