DISQUALIFIED.


James Johns chief argument for his
election as a member of the water
board seems to be that he has new
scheme for a municipal electric plant
which can be made to furnish power
for pumping water under filtration
system he would have the city adopt
in lieu of a gravity water system for
which the people voted last spring
Apparently Mr., Johns has given up
the idea OF having the city purchase
the Byers mill and its water right
and it is well he has done so. That
scheme appeared pretty raw.
As to what Mr.. Johns new scheme
may be we are not informed. 1t is
interesting to know however that he
has what he considers feasible
scheme for a municipal electric plant
If it is indeed a worthy scheme there
will be cause for rejoicing since Pen
dleton needs municipal electric
plant.
But has it never occurred to Mr..
Johns that if he is promoting an ell
ectric plant of any sort which he
would have used for pumping water,
he should not seek a place on the wa
ter board? If the city is to take over
an electric scheme fathered by Mr..
Johns surely it would be well to have
other than Mr.. Johns to do
the taking over. 1t would not do to
allow him TO be both the seller and
the purchaser. That would be too
much of a good thing.
If Mr.. Johns really and truly has
scheme such as he intimates he has
then he has disqualified himself for
a place on the water board and he
should withdraw from that race.
Isn't that right?

THIS WORLD OF OURS.

They say we live in an age of greed
Green of power and greed Of gain
We nave ceased to applaud the heroic
deed,
We are warned by priests, but they
preach in vain;
The right of might has become our
creed,
We cheer the rogue if his ventures
pay;
The purse is greater than sword or
pen,
But, in spite of the absence of knight
hood, when
Were wrongs as few as they are
today? ,
They say we live in an age when gold
Is the one reward that is proudly
claimed;
Glory is purchased and manhood sold,
Honor is banished and Virtue sham
ed:
Art IS hungry and Vice is bold.
Wisdom speaks in feeble tone;
But when has woman been burdened
less
or man shown reader willingness
To grant her all that should be her
own?
They say that chivalry is no more
That the just are weak and the
wicked strong:
The shield is rusted that Valor bore
And Pride is deaf to the minstrers
song;
Christ is turned from the rich mans
door,
Age IS favored with scant respect;
But when has childhood had greater
care,
And when has Helplessness had to
bear
Its pitiful ills with less neglect?
They say we live in Goddess day,
That Worth is ragged and Frailty
proud
The priest has ceased to have power
to sway,
The ribald laughter of Vice is loud:
The harp is broken and thrown away.
Art begs a crust at the merchants
gate;
But when have the strong been more
inclined
To Eft the weak and to lead the
blind.
And when was Efforts reward so
great?

A WAY OUT OF THE JUNGLE.

Conditions attending the present
municipal campaign in Pendleton af-
ford a good argument for the adop-
ton of the commission form of gov
eminent. Just look for a minute at
the state of affairs.
We have two men seeking the may
orality and some six or eight candi-
dates for the five vacancies that will
occur on the council. OF these eight
of 10 candidates not one man has yet
made a public declaration of what he
will do or try to do if elected to Of
flee. 1t has been suggested time and
again by this paper during the past
few weeks that the candidates should
be frank and let the people know
where they stand. As yet none of
them have responded publicly.
Yet there are people who know
where the candidates stand and what
they will do. The men who induced
the various candidates to run know
what to expect of them and that is
why they are backing them. Some are
wanted in office by particular parties
because they will oppose a gravity
water system and other expenditures.
Others are wanted because they will
be friendly to the electric trust which
has a close monopoly on affairs here
and makes use of it. Other candi-
dates have been brought forth be-
cause they will favor the saloon inter-
ests. Others may be wanted because
their hackers think they will oppose
further street improvements. There
are people here, and Influential peo-
pie, who do not think it is right to
pave more streets.
No candidate for office is running
without purpose and none of them
are without ideas and plans as to
What they will do if elected. But a
few people only know of these ideas
and purposes. The public at large il
kept in the dark. The voters who are
TO do the selecting are not told the
inside secrets. on the contrary they
are asked to go TO the polls and vote
hllndly for this man or that man.
1t is the wrong way to do and it is
not surprising that under such sys-
TEN We get governments that do not
govern as the people want them to do.
The thing is a jungle and even the
wisest hardly know what is what It
is not surprising that the average
voter, who is busy man, is perplexed
and is unable to exercise his right Of
franchise in the best possible way.
The commission form Of govern
ment does away with the jungle. 1t
simplifies the problem greatly and
brings matters more into the open.
Instead Of having eight or nine men
TO elect at the coming election there
would be but two positions to fill. BY
the nature Of things it is easier to Sc
4N|A SSCA llAfi AOl NHO lfidl
to select good men for eight or nine
positions. If we had the commis-
sion form of government in vogue
here now the average voter would
find his task much easier and he
would be able to vote more intelli-
gently than he will be able to vote on
December 4.
In discussing the commission form
OF government and the short ballot
Governor Wilson Of New Jersey once
used this simile: a man with a sword
three feet long is armed; extend the
sword until it is 20 feet long and you
disarm him. Under the commission
plan of city government a citizen can
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1911-11-22

vote inrelligently and effectively I'm
der the councilmanic system with
numerous positions to fill the average
voter is helpless.
In the view of the East oregonian
the brightest feature about the COM
ing city election is the fact the peo-
pie will have an opportunity to adopt
commission government if they want
TO do SO. 1t offers a way out of the
iungle.
