WHAT OREGON EXPECTS FROM
THE LEGISLATURE
Issued Every TLuis.ay By
ARTHUR u. MOE. Publisher.

IL Oregon shnnld lie searched from
Que end to the Uthtr, not one taxpay-
er could he found who would be for
other than a business session OF the
legislature, says tho Oregon Journal.
No other kind OF a session Is wanted.
Ii costs lot OF money to hold a SEES
sion. 1t costs more money II false
and foolish issues be introduced with
complications, delays and tomfoolery.
The bill has to be footed by the tax
payer. The burden falls heavily upon
the business men and property owners
of Portland. II tails heavily upon
tie Farmers of the state. 1t falls
heavily on the business men and prog
erty owners of every Oregon town.
Among all these there is desire for
an orderly and peaceful session. with
all the legislators bent on achieving
good results for Oregon.
The state needs road legislation.
1t wants a better distribution OF the
tax burdens. Ii wants water power
legislation. 1t wants irrigation legis-
lation. 1t wants legislation for pro
lection of the timber resources, such
as ia suggested by the national Con.
servation congress. 1t want lsigisla-
tIon with reference to the Willamette
locks. It wants LEGISLATION In line
with the progressive thought for con-
serving all our resources. 1t wants
legislation for the public schools.
Never 10 the history Of the state did
such weighty and pressing problems
of legislation appear for solution.
Never before 10 the history OF the
state has go much for state wellbeiDg
depended upon the deliberations aud
action of legislative assembly. New
er before was there such need for de
liberate and wise action. For all this
the ~ days OF allotted time Is almost
too short period. 1t is time .'or
the greatest and best thought OF those
among our chosen representatives to
be devoted with singleness OF purpose
and deepest seriousness to the great
work. : Oregon waits and her peo
pie await the result with patience and
hopefulness. A stride forward In
state development and state building
or two years more Of retarded pro-
gress are staked on the outcome. The
issues are momentous and the people
are watching those who are to be fig.
ured ia the session. They want to
know exactly where each man stands.
They want to know whether he is for
the people or against the people.
Th,y want to know whether he is for
Oregon or against Oregon. They want
to know whether he is for good legis'
lation or against good legislation.
They want to know whether he re-
CARDS his Office as a public trust or a
private snap. They want to know
whether he has things to do In secret
or whether his acts are to be open.
They want to know whether he wants
to hide things from the people or
take the people into his confidence.
They want to know whether the ses.
sion and everything connected with 1t
is to be square deal for them or a
period of secrecy, silence and
stealth. IL there are tnose who are
afraid to take the people into their
confidence, can the people trust them
