Rebel Leader is Said To Have IncIud-

MEXICO CITY, April 2S.-It was
learned here on high authority this
afternoon that Gen. Madero had SUBJ
mitted his terms of peace as follows:
That Madero he allowed TO name
governors of five states to be desig-
mated by him.
That all chief Of the rebel army be
given corresponding rank in the reg
ular army.
That Gomez he appointed secretary
OF the interior
The Madero be made assistant sec
retary of foreign relations.
That a fair election for the presi-
dency be held.
That the government deliver to
OF the revolution.
It is understood here that the gov
ernment's chief objection is TO the
amount Of money demanded. The
government Is willing to pay $15,000,-
600, II is said. The terms are now
being considered.

1T Is NOT RADICAL.

Roosevelt approves of most Of the
Arizona constitution but he is afraid
Of the provision that allows the peo-
pie to recall judges if they desire to
do so. 1t was to be expected that the
colonel would hold such a view. He
Is a conservative progressive and he
Is from d section of the country that
has scarcely started towards the po-
drical goal the people of Oregon have
already attained. Naturally he wants
to move slowly
There is a lot of solemn nonsense
about the sancitity OF our judiciary
and Col. Roosevelt seems to share in
the same. Some people speak of the
judiciary as though it were composed
o; men Of more than ordinary clay.
As a matter of fact our judges are
chosen as are other public officers and
they are of about the same calibre.
Many Of them are put intd3bffice, not
because they are learned in the law
and are fair minded, but because
certain interests feel they will profit
by having them upon the bench. II
is notorious that the public service
corporations of Oregon tried to place
one Of their men upon the supreme
court Of Oregon at the last election
He was defeated for the republican
nomination by Judge n. ]. Bean Of
this city.
Some people think it radical t.
give the people a chance to recall ;
Judge. But that plan is no more rad
ical than the plan in use where tn,
recall is not in force. Federal judge
are subject to Impeachment By Co
gress and state and circuit judges b,
the legislatures Of their RESPECTIVE
states. That is a radical provision be
cause a legislature is generally NOV
ed more by political consideration
than by anything else. A legislator
OF one political faith could easily at
tack judge Of an opposite faith an
tmpeach him unjustly. 1t is true tina
this is seldom II ever done. It
equally true that the recall woul
seldom be used to oust Judge. TIL
people as body are just as homes
as any legislature and quite as trus,
worthy. They always will be becaus
the people select the. legislature an
no creature can be greater than Il
creator.

AIRNIEN'S MAP.
First One Appears in Paris-Design-
ed by Army Officer.

The first airmans map has ap
peared in Paris. 1t was designed by
the French army's geographical de-
partment a further evidence of the
value set upon military airmanship
by the French war department. Arr
men have complained that existing
maps are of little use to them, so
Commandant Pollachi has set to work
to provide them with something bet
ter. He began with the district of
Chalons, where the flying school of
Mourmelon is situated, and this is the
first to be published. 1t is printed
boldly in six colors, corresponding
with what an airman can see of the
earth from height of 500 feet. The
roads are white. Woods and forests
are made splashes of green. Tho
and downs of the country are made
by shading, light for a gentle rise,
heavy for high hill. Towns and viii
lagos stand out clearly in red. Wind
mills, church towers, factory Chin
neys, telegraph wires and even tall,
isolated trees are indicated. Spots
where it is dangerous to land because
of uneven ground, hop poles, vine
yards. orchards, etc, are marked with
red crosses for the airmen to avoid.

place company L upon a war footing
will require some 60 recruits.
For the good name of this little city
ii; is to be hoped that the Pendleton
guard company will be quickly
brought up to the required strength.
For four years the state has MAIN
tained guard company in this city
and has expended much money in do
ing So, Now that there is a possibil-
ity the guard may be called into SER
vice it would look bad for the city to
have the company fall down."
This is not jingoism. There will
probably be no war and the Oregon
rational guard will not likely be call
ed into the field. Certainly it is to be
hoped there will be no call. Peace is
sweet and war is terrible. Only the
ignorant or the very foolish desire to
see war. The true patriot is one
who stands for peace yet is ready to
serve his country if his country needs
him. Evidently there is something in
the situation at this time that makes
it desirable to have the national guar /
ready for service. Otherwise the or
der to place the guard upon a war
footing would not have been issued.
Should there be no trouble and
therefore the national guard not be
called into the service those who join
ar this lime will lose nothing. They
will merely have little military ex-
perience that will not hurt them but
on the other hand should be good for
them.
If by any chance there should be
a war and soldiers be needed by the
United States those who belong to the
guard will be fortunate. They will be
able to go out with we'll equipped and
disciplined organizations under ex-
perienced officers. Col. Dunbar, COM
mander of the third regiment, Of
which company L is a part, is a vet
eran officer of the Spanish war and
many other officers of the regiment
are veterans. The regiment has a full
hospital corps and is equipped in
every department 1t would be much
better for a recruit to be with such
command than to be in a volunteer
re giment which ut the start would
have neither equipment nor officers
and would be little better than a mob.

hour of foolishness.

hour of foolishness.
Without the leisure hour during
which the burden can be forgotten in
the eager flight of enthusiastic ener-
gies, any human being becomes
dwarfed and crippled and finally at
rophied.
If in seeking needed pleasure and
relaxation men and women through
ignorance become addicted to vice
can society point the finger OF accu-
sation at them, when society has ne
elected to safeguard them by offer
ing opportunities for pure joy, right
eous emotion, clean and wholesome
pleasures?
The great Boy Scout movement
which is sweeping the civilized world,
is striking at the very root of this
problem by cultivating not alone joy
and work but joy in work.

GUARDsMEN WANTED.

Orders have been received from
Washington to recruit the Oregon ma
ticnal guard to a war footing. Why
that order was issued is not made
clear. II is not for the adjutant gem
eral or the guard officers Of the state
to inquire. But It b their duty -
obey the order and they are endeavor-
ing to do so.
Pendleton's guard company, along
with the other companies Of the state.
Is looking for recruits. Continued
peace has made service in the ma
uonal guard something Of bore and
none OF the companies have their full
quota Of enlisted men. Most Of them
have about the minimum number re-
qvired TO be on peace footing. To

UPHOLD THE SCHOOL BOARD.

Because the Lincoln school now has
but four rooms and so cannot provide
accommodation for all the grades
many north side children are COM
PEELED TO walk many blocks to the
Washington or the Hawthorne schools.
This make it hard for the north side
youngsters and particularly for those
of tender years. The Lincoln school
should be completed so that all the
grades may be taught there just as at
the other schools. If the people up
hold the school board by voting the
bond issue Thursday then the north
side school may be completed.

THE RIGHT OF JOY.

est. Paul Pioneer PreSS.)
Some day the political economist
will discover that, whether the world
owes a man living or not, it certain
ly owes him a playground and an
hour OF leisure. Indeed, If man Is
to have living that shall be marked
by any contribution to the good of the
world, he must have opportunity to
play and to do things that have no
practical value.
DR.. Woods Hutchinson, the charm
ing medical iconoclast, who has for
many years been puncturing the bug
bears of popular superstition in re-
gard to health, and telling the world
that it cannot be both healthy and
| uncomfortable at the same time, says
in a recent article:
"It is not play that impeis to drink
and dissipation, but work. Two-thirds
Of our vices are pitiful and distorted
efforts to get, by oblique and un-
wholesome means, that opportunity
for joy and emotional expression
which is denied us where We ought
most to be able to secure tin our
| lifework."
1t will not take a very wide investi-
cation to give the proof to this con-
tention.
We read much of the evils of our
dancehalls, and too seldom stop tc
ask what the original lure Of the dance
hall means. 1t means simply that
lyoung people, whose daily life is
drudgery and terror, find their one
CLEAN Of happiness in the few hours
a week that can be spent amid the
glamour of the dance and the muisc
They are entitled to that happiness
and IL 1t is made possible for them tc
get 1t under circumstances that makt
for uplift, they will not long cling t.

not in search Of vice. but In search
