A TWo-DAY SESSION

The Oregon Legislature went a
long way to retrieve itself in the pop
ular estimate when it closed its work
at the extra session in two days. The
people will remember this gratefully
and try to readjust their general un-
favorable opinion Of the bunch, at
least they will forgive much because
of the little that was done on Mon
day and Tuesday last.
We have an idea that the Legisla-
tors themselves have had about
enough of law-making, as they and
the people understand it, and are
glad TO escape rom the special ses-
sion with whole hides and none Of
the scars torn open.
At all events we are free from the
threatened prolongation of the ses-
sion and the piling up of new and old
business, and we believe it is due
very largely to the clever action by
the Governor, in using his authority
as Secretary Of State to withhold
the defeated and vetoed bills of the
general session. The whole State is
quietly thanking Heaven, and all
others interfering agencies, with all
its organic soul, for the dispatch of
the essentials and the DETECTION of
the deluge.

OF DEEP SIGNIFICANCE.


Los Angeles is furnishing a specta.
eular, yet significant, example of the
force, or failure, OF what is known as
the law Of recall, as applied to her
Mayor. The whole country is watch
ing the method, movement and out
come Of the affair with deep concern,
because Of It's future bearing on other
localities possessing the same pre-
rogative, as yet unused; and the hope
is very general that the City of the
Angels will proceed carefully and
safely, so as not to mitigate against
the virtue OF the principle involved
by 'balling ii up" in lot Of indis'
Greet and reactionary procedure,
II it works out down there, and
stands the rigid scrutiny OF the upper
courts upon appeal, there will have
been added to the resources of the
people. an element Of government
that will in time to come, prove of
inconceiveable value as restraining
agency in innumerable directions.
Like all public franchises 1t is sus-
ceptible of abuse, and this must be
guarded against all the time, until
the people learn to handle their
power with sense and sound diserim-
ination. We are prone to make
rather rabid use Of our great priv
Iieges; to invoke them without hav.
ing studied their direct and exact
bearing upon the object of reprisal
and our own interest at one and the
same time, and oftener than not,
plunge into intricate and hampering
messes that bring the best OF our
laws into disrepute and inefhcacy
through our own laundering.
We must have specific knowledge
OF our own tools before we handle
them. and it behooyes us all to study
not only the laws themselves, but the
history Of their operation in neigh
boring states and cities. We shall
soon grow to that consumate famil-
iarity that will eventually add to the
value of these great organic
functions to which we must owe, in
the end, our freedom from thou
sand curses now overriding US.

AN OLD ISSUE

We do not know that it IS so, but
1t Is held by very many that the
'jokers" in the Curtis and Karinen
ordinances. under discussion at the
Council session on Tuesday night
last we're certain clauses and terms d.
rected to the fiat closing OF the Irving
CIub and Astoria Amateur Athletic
Club, on Sundays; that it was con-
certed movement on the part Of these
gentlemen and that they hoped By
thus attacking the two highest social
institutions in the city, to flank the
movement against the saloons on the
score Of Sunday opening This Is
the common aceeptation Of the two
bills presented BY these Councilmen.
While we are not admitting nor
denying the fact, we desire to say a
word by way of argument against
such attempts.
Such a course is useless, barren,
and improbable. The writer made
a six-year fight Of this character, as
a public officer, and knows from hard
and constant defeat, that the social
club is unamenabie to the operation
Of the laws constructed primarily to
regulate the saloons. The fight in
which we were engaged was not con-
fined to the local range; It was boil
stored with the records and exper-
fences of scores Of cities in the land,
on the same proposition. and was
finally abandoned because the truth
was borne in upon US that the Club,
with its wine-room and service, is an
accepted and accredited element Of
the social life of the nation and free
from the structures and restrictions
imposed upon the public saloon.
Everywhere, it is claimed for ii, that
it is in the hands of discriminating
people; that it is not an open, free,
common resort, subject to the extra
vagances and indiscretions Of the
reckless: that it is a private place,
maintained for the comfort and pleas
ure of the few who pay regularly
and literally to support it; that its
promoters, subscribers and members
are, in fact, owners under the law,
and not mere patrons; that it invar-
iably operates under specific laws Of
its own which are ample to assure
its proper and decent conduct; that
it bears no relation nor semblance to
the saloon as the latter is commonly
regarded; and finally, las to this ar
gument), that it is an immense and
approved improvement upon the
saloon, and the safest SUBSTITUTE lot
that business ever devised
These conclusions were not con-
fined to the extraneous sources from
which such opinions were likely to
come in a general way; they were TAX
en- from the reasonings Of the judges
before whom the matter had been
brought in hundreds Of disguises and
differing degrees of presentment, and
were included in the almost universal
DEGREES handed down in the cases in
which this broad issue had been rails
ed. And, if as is claimed, these gen
tlemen, are seeking to close these
clubs by way of ordinance, they
might as well throw up the sponge"
and forget it."

DRY FARMING

ing Number Of Montana
Stations.

Bozeman, Mont, Dec. THE
director Of the Montana expert
ment station, F. B. Linfield, is
making plans for extensive agri-
cultural experiments next season.
Dry Farming and irrigated land
stations are to be established over
the state IN increased numbers.
About fourteen temporary
stations were maintained last year
for the purpose Of making farm
tests. The Chicago, Milwaukee &
Puget Sound railroad will provide
for three more stations, and will
increase the fund appropriated for
that work. The Great Northern
railroad has not definitely decided
what plans it will pursue, but it
intends to extend experimental
work materially along its lines.
The Northern Pacific has not de-
cided upon increasing its fund, but
it is likely it will do So. |, con-
tributei S., 600 for farm tests las,
year.
In instances where the railroads
and the experiment station work
together, It is planned 10 let the
railroads pay for the operation Of
the farm, and the station hire the
supcr'niendents, and keep and
compile the records Last year
the station contributed as much as
the railroads where experiments
were performed together,
A new departure from the regular
plans is being contemplated. 1t i.
| planned 10y the experiment station
to hire experts in dry and irrigated
land farming to travel through thu
newly settled regions OF the STATE
and give Tree instruction to farm
ers This work will be NOR
thoroughly carried out on each o
the government irrigation projects
II there are funds enough for tn
purpose the plan will be starte,
as soon as the farmers begin worl
next spring.
| This Is the fourth year that DIR
land farming experiments hav
been carried on by the experimen
station, and the results show with
out doubt that this state i
especially adapted for that kind G
farming. Last summer the station
were mostly in the eastern an
northern parts Of the state. Mex
year there will be stations in tn
Musselshell valley and in Beave,
