Governor Vests message was IN
part as follows:
He declares the Oregon banking
law a complete failure at present.
and says it "only serves to protect
the crooked banker" He Thinks
however. If the responsibility OF
stockholders in banks be materially
enlarged, if the scope Of banking be
restricted and examination be made
more thorough, the rights of deposit
ors would be protected.
Gov. West advocates state control
of water courses that are wholly
within the state, but thinks that in
terstate streams should remain under
federal control.
Forests and Fisheries.
Forests and forest fires are given
extended consideration and recon-
mendations for better protecting the
forests are made, chief being great
ly enlarged forest patrol provided
with sufficient funds In case of neces-
sity.
The fishery laws should be en-
larged better to protect salmon which
he says are threatened with exter-
mination; advocates enactment Of
good roads laws, liberal appropria-
tions for state institutions of learning
and enactment of laws that will re-
suit in better regulation Of public
service corporations.
Paroling convicts. Governor West
says, has been highly successful and
resulted in the reformation of many
convicts. He thinks that the parole
system should be greatly extended
and that judges give more consider
alton to cases where the indetermin-
ate sentence can be used.
Capital punishment he would have
abolished as barbaric and because of
reluctance of jurors to inflict the ex-
IRENE penalty conducive to hung
juries and hence to miscarriage of
justice.
He thinks Oregon should have q
law providing for deportation Of in
sane persons residing in other states.
lest this state become a dumping
ground for that class of unfortunatea-

a breath of April balm and sunshine

be but justifable exploitation Of one
of our undeveloped resources, than
which there is nothing more appeal
ing.
The time has come when the Yak
ina valley must assume larger
place in the history of Washington,
now in the making. 1t is essential
that we make other sections under
stand something of our resources. We
must get into closer touch with the
great cities that are growing up on
the sound. Friendly visits devolep

achievements issue.
These people are our neighbors and
their industries in a measure depend
upon our development. They will
work with us for the common good
Of each locality If they better under

doing Many of the business men who
would be attracted by weekend ex-

impression IL applied to developmert
direct. but when 1t is applied to
bringing settlers to the state, the
story is entirely changed. We have
lands to place under cultivation.
homes to build and resources to de-
velop.
Our acres will do much toward
supplying the world with food to eat
and clothes to wear. This means
that out of waste areas we will create
a vast storehoHse of wealth and q
wonderful source of productivity. II
means the creation of wealth in our
midst and the building up, of new In
dustries. New Industries mean that
we villa become self supporting in
he northwest, which must be ac-
compushed If we are to keep our
money at home.
Now that this state is to enlarge It's
activity in matters of publicity, it Is
essential that some plan be worked
oNt which will accomplish the most
good for the money expended.
It is easy to waste money in any VEN
ture and it is just as easily wasted in
advertising as in anything else. When
the American Tobacco company and
the National Biscuit company expend
upwards of two million dollars an
nually each In advertising, they ex-
pect and secure returns sufficient to
Justify this immense advertising ap-
preparation. They do not waste it In
advertising schemes that VIII moi
yield results.
The point is this-each community
Of this state is expanding large
amounts in publicity. But each
community is working separately
Each locality is obliged to duplicate
much of the advertising that some
other locality is doing. When the
man in the east writes to North
Yakima, Seattle or to Spokane, ne
wants information about the whole
state, its climate. its resources, etc.
No one locality can satisfy his in
curry, but If the advertising matter
was prepared serially and system
affixed, 1t would make a much deeper
and more lasting impression than 1t
does now. 1t would hit the mark and
hit it hard, and it takes hard hit
ting to accomplish anything In adj
vertising. Now is the time for the
state to focus its efforts on system
Latized publicity and work unceasing-
kly for the development OF this great
OF Washington.

Every spring in almost every
northern city of the United States
and Canada there breaks out typhoid
fever in a more or less mild form OF
epidemic. The trouble is the snow.
In the summer time It is easy to
bury refuse in the garden; in the
winter it should be as easy to burn
it in the heater or furnace. But, as
matter of fact, neither practice Is
generally followed. The winter ~
fuse preserved by the cold does not
begin to decay until the snow begins
to disappear. alternating flies
creep to the spots and spread the
disease everywhere. Now, indeed. 10
the time to get rid Of Mr.. and Mrs.
Fly. A few drops Of carbolic acid
dropped on a red hot shovel, vapor-
izing, will kill every fly in the room,
no matter where the nook they may
have ensconced themselves. The
same effect may be had by putting
one spoonful of formalin or formal
dehyde in a saucer Of water and ex-
posing it to the air. If there are no
flies left over, and IL the garbage Is
carefully cleared away, there will be
many fewer swarms when the warm
er weather sets in. The greatest les
son to be learned by q city which
expects the health department to
preserve the health Of that city =
that of domestic cleanliness. There
should be no throwing Of vegetable
refuse, empty cans or such like into
the open. Each and everyone of
these things is q breeder Of flies.
Except the citizen be individually
educated into the absolute necessity
OF cleanliness the very best man In
the world at the head Of the health
department of this or any other city
can do little good.-Inland Herald.
