CABINET POSITION FOR OREGON,

-THE election is all over, even to
the shouting, for, while a desul-
tory interest is taken in the final
count in California, 1t is only a matter
Of curiosity, for the result cannot be
changed. The only question now Is the
size of Wilson's majority, the number
Of his electoral votes.
Now most Of the great American
voters are engaged in the %pleasurabIo
occupation Of picking out a cabinet for
the incoming president, and as 1t
seems to be every ones privilege, The
Capital Journal humbly offers a small
suggestion.
The Pacific coast is entitled to rep
resentation in the cabinet. II has been
neglected, turned down and ignored in
this respect always, and the time has
come to call attention to the fact and
insist upon our rights, There are
plenty Of brainy men on this side OF
the continent, men who would add luB-
tire and strength to the political family
OF the president, and the y]astness OF
our territory, the conditions Of doyel-
opment prevailing on the coast more
than in any other section, the differ.
ent character Of our Industries, and
our rapid growth in population and
wealth, all demand that at least one Of
the presidents near advisers should
be u Pacific coast man. Just who does
not matter 80 much for there is an
abundance Of material.
In many respects Oregou's claims
for this honor are superior to those
OF any OF the other coast states. She
is central, in touch with California,
Washington, Idaho and Nevada, and
having close business relations with
each. While heretofore in presidential
elections, she has been solIdly Repub-
lican, she gave the incoming president,
the Democrat, a majority Of 1900. She
was represented on the committee
managing the campaign by W. r. King.

GORILLA TYPE NOT FEARED

Prediction About Race.
fRy Telegraph 10 The Tribune.


Philadelphia, Sept. 1I.-Dr. william
II. Furness, q psychologist Of Walling-
ford, and DR.. Eshtncr Witner, profes-
sor Of psychology Of the University OF
Pennsylvania, to-day ridiculed the pre-
diction Of Or. Forbes Ross, Of London.
that by 1912 the human race will have
reverted TO the gorilla type.
The contention Of DR.. Ross is that
the tendency 10 curtail the birth Of
children in the better classes and the
multiplication OF the dissolute and less
intelligent will produce race Of prog
nathous jaws, receding foreheads, fiat
noses and canine teeth.
Everything we know seems TO point
in the opposite direction said DR..
Furness in discussing the Ross predic-
tion. II certainly cannot join DR.. Ross
In his prophecy, AZ l do not believe
that such is the destiny Of the race.
However. DR.. Ross is perfectly safe in

NANKIN, Jan. 6.-Confident that
the Manchu dynasty is as good as

his advisors are going about the
work of reconstructing China today
with as much enthusiasm as if the
entire country has already accepted
the republican idea
The republicans believe that the

will be brought about with little more
bloodshed. Premier Yuan is in a
perilous condition. He has affront-
ed the revolutionists by his refusal
to abide by the agreement of his
| peace commissioner Tang Shao Wi.
His sincerity is doubted by the
court because he was the originator
of a plan to call national conven-
tion to decide upon the form of fu-
ture governments plan that could
mean nothing short of the dynasty Is
end.
The premier is now believed to be
basing his only hope OF coming out OF
the present situation with flying col

vention. The republicans, however
have shown such willingness to pro
tect foreign lives and property that
the danger of Intervention is not con.

In the meantime the more enlight-

masses will take to the democratic
plan of government. For hundreds of
centuries they have bowed submis-
sively to the aristocracy.

By an endless system of denials,
the officers of the court have been
misled not only in their quest of the
missing woman and her son, but ma

able to evade service to appear before
the judge.
Hanish was recalled to the witness

that he could not remember whether
