THE PACIFIC MONTHLY.

The Pacific Monthly for June is one
of the best issues for a long time. Its
cover carries out beautifully the
Portland Rose Festival idea with its
garlands of roses and rose decked
girls. Oregon has long been famous
for its beautiful roses and the lead
ing article in the June number $ de-
voted to Portland, the Rose City, the
Summer Capital of America.
John Kenneth Turner has an article
entitled 1.-The Mexican Revolution. -
which tells in a most graphic manner
the causes which led to the revolution
in Mexico and gives a vivid picture
of the Mexican revolution up to date.
Randall r. Howard contributes q
beautifully Illustrated descriptive ar
ticle on the Volcanic Cave Wonders
of the Northwest.
Every westerner and every old
timer will enjoy "The Pioneer Rem
innscenceS of George Collier Rob-
bins" who gives very readable ac-
count of the beginnings of many of
the prominent men of the west.
John E. Lathrop tells in his article,
'The West and the National Capital, ,"
many facts not generally known, as
to the influences. that direct legisla-
tion at our national capital.

of the strongest that the Pacific

TRUST REGULATION.

AS an outcome OF the Standard oil
decision The country has taken a long
step forward in the matter of the reg
ulation of trusts and public utility
corporations.
One after another prominent men
are declaring for regulation by ma
tional and state laws of all trusts
They would not confine the field to
railroads and other concerns usually
classed as public service corporations
Roosevelt urges the enactment of
drastic and farreaching legislation
which shall put the great interstate
business corporation Of the type OF
the Standard oil company, the steel
trust and the like, at least as com
pietely under the control Of the gov
ernment in each and every respect as
the interstate railroads are now put"
In this declaration the colonel but
expresses the progressive sentiment
o. the country II is folly to try t.
cure the evil by enacting antitrust
laws intended to abolish all trusts
Hope lies in regulation.
E. H. Gary, head of the steel trust,
expresses sentiments similar to those
Of Roosevelt. Than Mr.. Gary no one
is in better position to know the in
justice and the danger to the repub-
lie Of permitting the trusts to go un-
bridled as in the past.
1t is true of course that effective
regulation will be resisted by the
trusts. Mr.. Gary, as head of the
steel trust, will probably seek to
show that the prices Of steel should
not be greatly reduced. That is his
side Of the game. But the trust reg
ulating commissions should be COM
pendent enough to deal out justice
regardless of the pleas of the trust
magnates. In time we will get such
commissioners, if we do not at first.
The popularization of our govern
ment through use of the direct pri-
mary, the recall and the initiative and
referendum will help in getting the
right sort Of men on the regulatory
commissions.
The age Of competition is passing
and when 1t is gone it will never re-
turn. We must turn to governmental
control if we are to sustain that part
Of the Declaration Of Independence
which sets forth that "all men are
created free and equal and are entit-
led to life, liberty and the pursuit of
happiness"

securing laws offering bounties tor
coyote hides because the sheepmen
have heavy interests at stake and
have been organized. But sheepmen
have no more interest in the matter
than have diversified farmers and
srortsmen, Intensified farming can
not be carried on in regions where
coyotes are too prevalent Everyone
knows this.
The coyote bounty law is a good
law and it is satisfactory to know it
t. bringing results. The law should
be upheld, not ridicrtied. The idea
that men may be raising coyotes so
as to get the bounty is pure bosh. The
law provides $1,000 fine for such an
offence and if Mr.. Sailing or anyone
else has any evidence the law is be-
ing violated, he should report the
facts to the proper parties.
Very likely the clerk is prejudiced
against the coyote bounty law because
he dislikes 10 bother with the hides.
But it is part of his duties as clerk
to receive them, If he does not like
his position he has the privilege of
quitting it,

IT OWEN HAPPENs.

In the death of Louie Long. the
prize fighter who has fought in Pen
dleton, there occurred an incident that
is liable to happen under such cir
When men have trouble
with their wives it is. generally peri
lous for other men to intervene until
the social conventions have first been
observed. They are liable to be shot
by the husband who finds his excuse
in the unwritten law.
1t is true the unwritten law is often
abused. Men of murderous minds
who are prompted by brute jealousy
and not love for their wives at all
take advantage of the fact that juries
usually sympathize with a husband
who kills his wife's paramour.
At times the husband himself is
the villain and his victim the nearer
a hero of the two. But the facts
seldom become apparent. Society al
Y avs looks with distrust upon a man
who intrudes into the domestic affairs
or another and is disposed to be lem
lent with the husband who resents
that intrusion. This has been true
ever since the origin of the tribe, It
always will be true and it is just as
we'll for people to bear this in mind.

IT Is GOOD EIDDANCE.

In an interview today Dan P.
smythe, who is a pretty good authrity
on the sheep business and on the sub
ject Of coyote determination, says
County Clerk Sailing need not worry
over the number Of coyote hides
brought to his office. on the other
hand he should rejoice that the law
Is proving 50 effective in ridding the
country Of coyotes.
Mr.. smythe is right in this matter
The coyote is n varmint that cannot
be exterminated too quickly. He is
a foe not only TO the sheepman but
TO the small. farmer everywhere. The
coyote is as bad for chickens. small
pigs. ducks, geese and game birds,
such as grouse, as he is for sheep.
