BIGGER THAN A SENATORSHIP.

Massachusetts now has the sena-
torial primary and Louis ID. Brandeis
is talked of as successor to Murray
Crane. The two facts go together.
Without the primary, Brandeis
wouldn't even be mentioned. 1t
would be impossible for man of his
type to get any votes in the legisla-
ture under the old system of ma
chine rule, with the machine owned
by the interests.
II would be good thing for Mas
sachusetts to send Brandeis to the
senate. 1t is not, however, of great
consequence to Brandeis himself. As
private citizen he weighs more than
a carload of Murray Cranes. Any
one who has ever heard him hurting
the thunder at a public hearing. with
Crane and others of his kind shrivel-
ing up in their chairs before him,
must realize how little the senatorial
toga would add to the stature of a
real statesman, patriot and lover OF
his kind.

THE PROMISED LAND.

Madero won the presidency of
Mexico upon his promise to cut up
the big estates and give the common
people chance at the land The
new revolution started because he
did not Immediately redeem his
promise. Now he is ready to act.
He has worked out a scheme of land
purchases through commission and
a land bank, and nearly 100000
acres have already been acquired for
distribution among the people.
Sounds good, doesn't it? But
there is fly in the ointment. 1t is
said that the price which the govern
ment pays for the land is about five
times its true market value, and that
somebody is going to get millions of
unearned profit at the expense of
the multitude of small buyers.
IT is long, long way to the prom
3sed land in Mexico.

HOW sunny JIM" MAY BE
CHOSEN PRESIDENT.

A possibility of the present presi-
Dental campaign is one that has
never occurred heretofore and one
that the makers of the constitution
have not provided against. That is
the failure of election of a president
by any and all of the alternatives
provided.
The failure of any candidate to
carry a full majority of the electoral
votes, which must be recognized as
a veritable possibility this year, con-
sidering what happened in South Da-
kota, where the republican state con-
vention refused to mention Taft's
name, and considering the uncertain
factors in the contest, throws the
election of president into the house
and of vice-president into the SEN
ate.
But in that case the members OF
the house vote not individually but
as joint representatives in every del
egation of their respective states,
every state being equal and having
one vote, but every senator having
one vote in the senate in the election
of vice-president A majority of all
the senators is necessary to elect a
vice-president, and a majority of all
the seates necessary to elect a presi-
dent in the house.
The curious situation exists of a
deadlock in the house. That is,
there are 23 republican states, "a
democratic and one (Nebraska) di-
vided, having an equal number OF
republicans and democrats in the
house. The democrats would not
have majority in any case, unless
Nebraska should join them to make
an election.
With deadlock in the house, the
constitution provides that the vice
president elected by the senate would
succeed, precisely as in the case oi
the death of the president. The sen.
ate is republican, but is bound by the
constitution to vote for the candi
dates in November's election for vice.
president, so that the senate coulC
not elect as vice-president man who
ran for president.
While the contingency is remote
yet the senate election for vice-presi
dent-in this case Sunny JIM
would succeed to the presidency.

BUSY LITTLE COUNTRIES.

All of us, more or less, are fasci-
mated by the glamor of bigness. We
are proud to be inhabitants of great
countries like the United States or
Great Britain-countries with vast
resources and millions of population
and mighty navies-countries that
are world powers"
But, after all, one sometimes won
ders whether the little countries are
not in happier case; the little coun-
tries that are maintained as buffer
states, or by mutual agreement be-
cause of the jealousies of the big ma
tions.
At one blow the little countries are
relieved of the tremendous expense
of big armies and navies. All govern
ment is conducted on a simpler and
more economical scale The people
have more time for industry and the
arts.
Purely theory? Well, let's look
into it. There is Belgium, for in
stance, which Germany could gobble
tomorrow if it chose. Belgium is one
vast workshop. On every hand the
sky is rendered murky by clouds OF
smoke that come from huge factories
The little country is rich.
Or take Denmark, another land
that Germany could absorb if il
chose. Denmark is one immense
market garden and dairy farm. The
making of butter and cheese has be.
come a science. The people are pros.
porous.
Nor is the prosperity merely fl
nancial and commercial one. The
arts are not neglected. Belgium has
produced Maurice Maeterlinck, one
of the worlds greatest modern dra.
matists and essayists. Emile Yer
haeren is admittedly the Creates
lyric poet now using the French
tongue. Little Denmark keeps III
her end of it by producing George
Brandes, the greatest living critic O
literature.
So you see, these little countries
are really big-big with prosperity
big with productions of hand ant
brain.

WOMAN AND THE AEROPLANE.

If many women had it in mind to
go into aviation the death of Miss
Harriet Quimby must make them
think a bit. In so far as alertness
of thought goes, there is every rea-
son why women might fly even bet
ter than men. Women soar through
the circus arena as acrobats with ease
and safety. The treacherous quality
of the air calls for instant estimate
and decision on physical forces, and
a woman's quick wit ought to serve
her well.
But as in all outdoor labor and
sports, the aeroplane seems to call at
times for great strength, to meet the
terrific rush of air at high rates of
speeds Here is where Miss Quimby's
frail muscles may have failed at their
task
No doubt the poetry of aviation
appeals to women even more keenly
than men. The dust and ponderous
machinery still make automobiling
somewhat earthly. Such factors are
wholly or partly absent in the great
man-made birds that are beginning
to obey human intelligence. The
elation of speed, the companionship
of the clouds, the sense of escape
from prosaic earth, will no doubt
appeal more and more to women
One imagines a grim series of femi-
nine tragedies reaching out into the
future.

HARD LINES.

Hard lines for old Abdul Hamid
eX of Turkey. They took all but six
of his wives away from him, and put
him in a villa prison at Salonika,
wherein the only fun he has is beat
ing his wives and painting red pic
lures while reclinging in a bath tub.
And now the Italian fleet threatens
to lombard Salonika, including Ab
in his bath tub.
The march of progress certainly is
running all the sunshine out of the
infamous old scoundrel's life. 1t will
be just like those Italians to shoot
up that bath tub first thing.

LOVES APPEAL.
(By Richard p. Campbell.

(By Richard P. Campbell.).
Men of our state and country, men
of our heart and home,
Filled with an earnest purpose and
trust in you, we come,
Prompted by love and duty and
steadfast loyalty,
We ask for equal suffrage, for right
and liberty.
You know our hearts beat constant,
our lives ring ever true,
We face stern death unflinching for
the love we bear to you.
Our country's hope and promise lies
sweetly on our breast
'Tis motherhood appealing to the
manhood of the West.
We feel our fair state needs us-the
touch of woman's hand,
In shaping the destiny of our be-
loved land.
The blight of sins immoral, the curse
of human greed,
Have fastened on our statehood, il
calls us inits need.
We know our limitations, our duties
in the home.
Our state is but a household, it beck
onS us to come.
You led us to the altar in love and
constancy,
We ask a broader wedlock, bound in
equality.
Our love will be the deeper as il
broadens in its scope,
Our lives will grow the richer in use
fulness and hope.
We pledge a proud anegiance to
home and Oregon
Woman, full-wedded to the man
shall come into her own.

Fireweed Makes Honey,

Hood River, Ore.-W. w. Dakin,
one of the largest honey producers in
this community, is planning on TAX
ing his hives to the range of hills
west of the valley, that the bees may
be near to the large fields of fire
weed growing on the burnt-over
areas there. He declares that his
bees will fill the hives quickly in
these locations. Fireweed honey is
considered better than that produced
from any other flower.

SHE WAS BOUND FROM ereRAL-

LOAD A CARGO OF LUMBER
FOR THE KEYsER-MuLpoN CO.
lis REPORTED TO BE RESTING
IN ABOUT SIX FEET OF WATER.

The British steamer Coniston, bound
from Gibraltar for Port St. Joe for a
cargo of lumber is lying broadside on
Oyster reef, near Phillips inlet, thirty
miles east of Pensacola, according to
reports brought to Pensacola Sunday
night by the captain of the river
steamer Capt. Fritz The tug Simp-
son is supposed to be alongside of the
steamer rendering what assistance is
possible, as the tug failed to arrive
here yesterday when she was due from
st. Andrews.
The Coniston was 0ue to arrive in
Port st. Joe Saturday, but was caught
in the storm OF Friday and Saturday
morning and driven ashore She is a
big steamer and has no cargo aboard.
IN SIX FEET OF WATER.
1t is reported that the steamer is
resting in about six rect of water, be-
ing driven with terrific force on the
reef. If this is true it will require
much work and money to float her,
and she is imbedded in seven or eight
feet of sand her entire length.
All of the tow boats at Pensacola
are busy and none went down to where
the steamer is ashore, but inasmuch as
the Simpson had to pass the steamer
and did not arrive, it is believed that
she stopped to render what assistance
Is possible.

NO SETTLEMENT
OF COAL STRIKE
Operators Refuse to Accept Gov.
GIasscooks Plan 10 Arbitrate the
Differences Existing.

Charleston. w. Va, Sept 16-Hopes
of settling the strike in the Kanawaha
coal fields of West Virginia diminished
today when the operators refused to
accept Governor Glasscock's plan for
arbitration Jointly offered to the miners
and operators. The plan was agree
able to the miners.
The operators refused to accept on
the ground that all the miners, both
union and non union, would not abide
by the decision.
The operators contend that to accept
the governors proposition would mean
the mines would be operated under
authority of the United Mine Workers
of America, which they refuse to con-
sent to. The governor has called a
meeting of representatives Of business
organizations of the state, miners and
operators here Saturday to discuss the
situation.
