THURSDAY, October 5,........1911

Gov. West has announced that be will
not call the legislature in special session
to enact good roads laws; in fact the
Governor reasons that there is no GER
tainty that the legislature would confine
its actions to the consideration Of such
laws, and the purpose for which it was
called together would in the end be
defeated. On the other hand, there is
in reality no serious demand by the
people for special session. The peo-
pie evidently feel that the Oregon legis-
lature meets too often as it is. and we
may we'll be saved these extraordinary
sessions.

That Morrow county is on the eve OF
very prospectus times, and will soon
come in to her own, is a general ex-
preston among those who are giving
the matter thought. We have a good
country for farming when the right
methods are put in use, and there is no
country better adapted to dairying,
hog -aisiug and chicken raising, to say
nothing Of the vast area that can be
turned to fruit raising and gardening,
and the idea of diversiiying is beginning
to take root. Three seasons of short
crops have been hard on our people and
caused many to become discouraged,
yet We have citizenship here that are
the salt Of the earth; they VIII not be
downed. These lean years have no
doubt proven to be blessings in dis
guiss. They have shown corclusively
that other lines can be added to the far
mere income, and poultry raising anu
dairying, industries that are in their in
fancy here. have been bridges that have
carried many OF our people over the
slough OF despond and given them the
whereWifhal to live and get along. A
succession Of abundant crops should not
be the means OF blocking this idea, but

All this political rot being published
about Woodrow Wilson being "a Yam
kee" and Champ Clark and other
southern men being rebels" and that
this fact should not be lost sight of in
the nominating convention, should re-
ceive the solar plexis blow instantly.
No sane man will try to stir up the is
sues involved in the late unpleasant
ness" unless he be imbued with the
idea that by so doing he may gain for
himself the really undesirable cogno-
men of being "a fire eater"
The conditions that surround the
American people today are of such a
nature that they should denounce the
maiden effort of every cheap politician
who makes an appeal to prejudice and
sectionalism. He should be denied a
passing notice by men who even pre-
tend to be honest to their God, their
country, or themselves.
For some reason great many peo-
pie have been thinking that the past
has buried it's dead and that we are
living in the present and the future
but this idea seems to have been a
fallacious dream, and we still have
men with us who will not accept the

RADICAL VIEWS ON MARRIAGE
Ellen Key, Gifted Swedish Woman,
Favors Changes That Would
Alter Face Of Society.

From Berlin issues the voice OF Fl.
len Key, a voice at once very radical
and very pure. This gifted woman,
whom Hayelock Ellis has lately pro
nounced zone Of the chief moral
forces of our time" was born in
Sweden. For twenty years she occu-
pied the chair of history and civ
ilization in Sweden. at the popular
University of Stockholm. She has
written and lectured constantly on
social questions and her best known
books. including The Century and
the Child" have been translated into
several European tongues. The first
two volumes of her most extensive
work. Lines of Life" have Just ap.
peared for the first time in English
In a book entitled Love and Mar
riage."
Ellen Key frankly regards the mar.
riage institution as in a state of fax.
and she seems to sum up in her book
every phase of the marital unrest
now abroad in the world. We are
compelled to choose. she declares, be-
tween the idea of homogeneous mar
riage, as divinely ordained, and the
idea of marriage as an expression OF
the claims of hur'an life. She her
self accepts the latter alternative.
With eyer-growing seriousness" she
says, "the new conception of moral
ity is affirmed; that the race does not
exist for the sake of monogamy, but
monogamy for the saks Of the race;
that mankind is therefore master Of
monogamy to preserve or to abolish
It." Ellen Key does not propose to
abolish monogamy, but she favors
changes in the marriage code so rad
ical that, If indorsed by the con-
science Of mankind. they would
change the whole face Of society

New Elsetro-c0atlna Process.

The electro-coating process by
which glassware is decorated with a
network of silver designs has recent
ly been extended In Germany to the
plating of porcelain dishes, such as
platters, bowls, tureens. and tea and
coffee sets. Vessels thus treated are
said to wear better than either simple
porcelain or solid silver, being less
fragile than porcelain and less subject
to indentation and reformation than
silver, The product is called electro
porcelain, and is cheaper than plated
silverware. The plating is usually OF
silver, but sometimes of nickel. In
some cases, instead of covering the
entire vessel. the plating is confined
to the handles. knobs and edges, and
cooking pots are usually left uncov-
cred within, because porcelain can
more readily be kept clean than a sur
face Of metal.
