High Cost of Living.

Assemblyman Bray has compiled some
reasons for the high cost of living
which he gave at the business mems
banquet here Friday night. Here are
some of them:
James ], Hill lays it to high living.
The insurgents lay it to the tariff while
the regulars lay it to demagogery. I'm
ion labor lays it to trusts, the unem-
ployed and emigrants. The trusts lay
it to scarcity and high price of labor.
City people lay it to the farmers, and
the farmer lays it to the inability to
secure labor. Temperance people lay
it to waste in saloons and the saloon
keeper lays it to Generalization of bus
iness from temperance agitation. Ship
pers lay it to cost of transportation and
the railroads lay it to the burden from
legislation. Patriotic Americans lay 1T
to money spent in Europe, and foreign
ers lay it to excessive speculation and
high living. The poor lay it to idleness
and extravaganza of the rich, and the
rich lay it to laziness of labor. The
meat eaters lay it to the packers and
butchers, and the packers lay it to
rigid inspection Vegetarians lay it to
the grocery trust and refrigerators, and
the grocers lay it to the pure food law.
Mail order houses and department
stores lay it to the profits of the mid
dleman, and the small merchants to
the mail order houses and department
stores Mr.. Dooley says it is due to
excessive eating and suggests stop
eating to reduce the appetite. Econo-
mists lay it to excessive gold produc-
ton, and bankers to the stringency OF
gold. The socialists lay it to the gov
eminent, and the government is about
to investigate.

Cost of Rural Delivery.

How MANY farmers would be willing
to give up the rural delivery man, and
90 back to the old way of receiving
their mail at the postoffice? We doubt
if there is one in the whole country who
would want to see the carrier system
abolished, and yet, it wasn't but few
wears ago, when the first routes were
being instituted that the plan met with
bitter opposition from some of the
farmers Well, there is no danger of
the system ever being taken away, but
it's cost has been the source of much
discussion in Washington the past win
ter, because the Postmaster General
says that it is one of the chief causes
of the immense postal deficit.
It must be patent to even the most
casual observer that if deficits are to be
overcome in this country it will not be
by checking or limiting any useful pub
lie service. The effort to prove that
rural free delivery is one of the prime
causes of the deficit in the postoffice
department may have been in degree
successful, but public sentiment favor
able to the extension of the free deliv-
cry postal service, rural and otherwise,
has not been affected by this fact in the
least. And in this matter Congress has
been responsive to the popular demand.
Instead of reducing the number of ru-
raj delivery routes, in order to check
the deficit an increase has heen made
in the postoffice appropriation bill suf-
ficient to cover the cost of maintaining
80, 600 additional rural routes next year.
Rural free delivery has now become
one OF the permanent charges against
the OMITTED States treasury. During the

formative stage of the service it will
probably fail to make financial returns
commensurate with its actual cost.
But its value cannot be measured in
dollars and cents. It is adding i'm
mensely to the convenience of farm
life. It is contributing immensely to-
ward the intellectual uplift of the great
farming communities of the nation. Its
influence is making the rural districts
pleasanter for young people, by bring
ing them into closer touch with the
daily affairs of the world, and especial
ly in making young men more content
to stick to the soil, will be worth many
millions more, if the proposition must
be reduced to money basis, than it
will be possible to sink in establishing
it. Elkhorn Independent.

No Special Elections.

When the Initiative and Refer endum are in operation, there will be no extra elections and nc additional expense on this ac- count. All laws ordered to a vote by petitions of the people will be submitted at the regular State elections every two years. The legislature may order a special election, but this would occur very seldom.
 have heard men say "The State would be all torn up, there would be elections every two weeks. Such talk is all bunkum. The amendment pro- vides for no such thing, Oregon has never had a special election since the Referendum was put in operation in 1902; since then they have voted on 32 laws, of which 12 have been rejected and 20 enacted by the people. The Portland Journal, a peoples paper, says that the people have enacted more good laws for the benefit of the State in 8 years than the Legislature had in the previous 50 years.
 The total cost to the State of Oregon for these elections includ- ing the printing and mailing of a phamphlet containing copies of the laws to be voted on, with ar guments for and against has been only S25, ,000.; but the tax payers saved them selves four times that amount by knocking out one appropriation of S100,000. for military purposes: But at the same election they approved an appropriation of S125, ,000. for educational purposes. Also, the people passed law compelling the big corporations doing inter- state business to pay taxes like ordinary folks have to. This has brought many thousands of dol lars into the treasury of the state. For years the legislature had refued to pass such law, being under the influence of poli- ticial and corporation lobbyists. There are many other things which you ought to khow about which the people of Oregon and Oklahoma have done Are not the people of Arkansas just as intelliget and honest as the people of these states?
