Ahnnt OnIy May QUO.

The regrettable circumstance of a
deadIocked senate, by which the leg
islatiye business of the state is tied
I'M at a heavy cost to the taxpayers,
sharply emphasizes the necessity OF
Immediately amending the constitu-
ton in some manner SO as to prevent
any further repetition of such a
situation. The fact that the senate
was deadiocked in similar manner
Two years ago shows that the cir
cumstance is not such an unusual
nor improbable thing as to permit
It's possibility to continue longer.
The best way out Of the difficulty
would be to authorize the election
OF a lieutenant governor. To those
who think that provision might be
made for the selection of an uneven
number of senators, it may be stated
that such thing would be imprac-
tical because of difficulty in pro-
viding a fair and equal representa-
tion and because the senatorial dis
tricts are changed from time TO
time; and were the senatorial body
UNEQUAL in number, the political party
dominant at the time Of d'edistrict-
ing could possibly have an unfair
advantage of the situation. What Is
iugt stated as the best way out OF
the difHculy is thus seen to be about
the only way out.
The Charleston Mall sets forth
this pressing need OF the hour in
West Virginia in an able editorial,
Of which the following is an ex-
cerpt:
Recent events have amply testined
to such a necessity. No one can
forget two years ago, when the SEN
ate stood a tie--afteen to fifteen-
ana the deadlock that followed, with
the hegira OF fthe Faithful Fifteen"
Republicans to other soil. This year
We have the same th.ng-fifteen Re-
publicans and fifteen Democrats
with the same difficulty OF organizing
the senate. and with another costly
and prolonged deadlock threatened
When each side makes demand for
the same ching and neither S d, has
the necessary majority to attain its
end, deadlock S almost among the
things inevitable. Espec ally is TIL:
SO when the lines OF part:sanship are
drawn tightly. The governor beint

Is that the president OF the senate

ity Of the governor, should be Re

publican and should be selected by
Republicans. But logic, we all
know. plays but very. very small
part in politics.
Here Is case where provision
should be made So such contIng-
ency could not arise, the organiza,
tiaa OF the legislature could be eff
fected and It's business proceed at
the stated time. The only way in
which this can be done lies in the
provision for a lieutenant governor
who shall be elected at the same
time and on the same ticket with
the governor. Such a provision was
up once before the people, but the
OF the matter was not at
that time realized and nothing came
OF it. Conditions are different now
and there is every reason to believe
that the people OF the state not only
would jump at the opportunity to
straighten out matters, bat are really
DESTROYS OF SO fixing the thing that
such contingency as faces the leg
stature at this session and as faced
1t at the last session, can not inter-
fere with the organization of the up
per branch. No more important
matter stares the legislature in the
face than this.

No Good Excuse.

Positively no rational excuse can
be given or the course OF the fifteen
democratic state senator's in pre-
venting the state senate from being
organized, AS stated the Republic
cssas do not want or seek to steal a
senatorehip as did the Democrats
two years ago and, therefore, the
wearing OF the shoe on the other
foot does not apply. No excuse given
as yet by them is more than very
weak. Concerning their latest claim
that they represent the plurality
party in the state, the Huntington
Republican puts the following up to
them and they can not deny 1t:
"A weak argument is that ad-
vanced by the Democratic press in
support Of their claim to the presi-
dency of the senate. They say that
the Democratic party was the plu-
rality party in the late election
therefore Democratic should be
placed in line for the governorship.
We're they the plurality party in the
late election? If they were how do
they account for the fact that they
only elected two out of six congress-
men? If this is true how did it hap
pen that every candidate on the
state Republican ticket was elected
Iby large majority? II. there is any
merit in their claim how do they ac-
count for the election of only four
out Of the fifteen senators elected?
II this is true how do they explain
the twenty majority against them in
the House of Delegates? There is
nothing to show that the opposition
is divided into two parties in the leg
islature. Every opposition member
was nominated IN straight Repub-
lican primary election and Endorsed
by the Progressives. They have not
divided themselves into two distinct
political parties and the Democrats
have no right to so divide them. The
only division was on the presidential
ticket and this did not affect the
congressional, the state or the legis-
ilative ticket"
The suspicion is growing stronger
daily that the Democratic bosses are
opposed to the progressive legisla-
tive program mapped out by the Re
Epublicans and there is reason to be-
lieve that that is actually what is
prompting the Democratic senators
lin deadlockEag the state senate.

SCHOOL Credit for Duties.

giving school credit for industrial
work at home is told with compell-
ing interest by the Hon. L. r. Al

pamphlet which the United States
Bureau of Education is sending free

The experiment was so successful
In Spring Valley that it attracted the
attention Of the county superlntend-
ents Of the state, who this year
made special trip in body to OBJ
serve the results of the home-credit
plan in this school, and then adyo-

operation.
Observers OF the work that is
done in oregon agree that the effect
both ca school and home has been
unfailIngly good. The children take
more pride in their homes; give
eager assistance in lthe household to
their frequently overworked moth
ers; live cleaner, healthier lives
than before; yet they by no means
neglect their school work in their
awakened zeal for home interests.
Indeed, the evidence seems to he
that the habits Of industry and
cleanliness thus encouraged in re-
spect to duties in the home are not
only reflected in the pride they take
in sanitary school surroundings, but
also in increased ability in studies,
greater willingness to do the les
sons, and a higher degree Of accu-
racy in all the activities both OF
home and school.
The basic principle behind the
work of DR.. Alderman and his asso-
ciates Is that education shuld make
us more willing and efficient work
ers. Every person has some home
duties, chores and the like. Under
the proper encouragement and direc-
tion the boys and girls who are in
school can be taught to do these
things we'll and thoroughly. The
more they do. we'll and cheerfully.
the better for them; they will be-
come finer and more useful men and
women. The giving of school credit
for home work., says DIR. Alderman,
''is like opening greater reservoirs
Of power which as yet have scarcely
been tapped"
Certain 1t Is that cooperation be-
tween home and school is enc Of the
pressing problems of the day. Ac-
cordingly this Oregon experiment,
which seeks to coordinate in the
fullest sense the interests OF school
and life, is followed with close at
te.ation by educators everywhere.

cation has several thousand copies

BLOOD FOR HEAD vooDooIsT
Four.YeanoId Cuban Boy offered as
Sacrifice to superstitIous Is-
land Rite.

Pedro Betancourt, Cuba.-That little
four-year-old onelio Garcia, who on
June 20 disappeared while on his way
home at the farm Sardinas, was muir
dered by negro voodooists to obtain
his blood for witcheTy practices, the
same that happened with little Zoila at
Guira de Melena and with little Luisa
at Alacranes, there Is little doubt. The
rural guard have arrested the men and
women who are held responsible for
the savage practice.
The arrested persons in the case up
to the present time are Severe Jim
enez, Faustino Baro, Benito Armas
and Ramon Martinez, the three last
mentioned being accused by Jimenez,
whose statement to Judge Merconchi-
nj shows that the practice of voodoo-
ism in the country districts among the
negroes continues in its pristine saw.
age state. The fact that Bocout and
Molina, the murderers Of little Zoila
at CORA de Melena in 1905, were exc.
cuted in the garrote has apparently
served no purpose.
From the Investigations. and the
charges made by Jimenez 4gainst Ba.
70, Martinez and Armas, 1t appears
that in the present case a woman, who
is held as the head voodooist," was
sick at Torriente and that under their
practices she was to be touched with
a stone called the "sauto," which must
be fed" with the blood of white
child to obtain her cure. Accordingly
Baro, Martinez and Armas started to
seek a victim, and to that end vent
to the home Of Jimenez at the Mara
villa farm and requested his aid.
Jimenez says that he refused to join
them, returning to his house, where
he told his mother. This happened on
June 10, he saying that on June 81, q
day after little onelio disappeared
he was told by Baro that his services
were no longer needed, that they al
ready had the child.
The rural guard, acting under orders
Of Judge Merconchini, are making q
search about the district at places
pointed out by Jimenez in order to find
the remains Of the missing boy, but Ut
to the present all search has proved
fruitless.

LANE NOT CERTAIN
ABOUT HERMlST0N
New Secretary of the Interior Hears
That Project Is "a Failure: More
Meetings.

Washington. April 1l.-Secretary
of the Interior Lane intimated to
Senator Chamberlain that he has been
getting reports from Oregon to the
effect that the Hermiston reclama-
ton project is a failure, and he prac-
tically said that if such were the case
IL would hardly be wise to lay out
more money in that vicinity ma sim
liar manner This came out at
conference between Secretary Lane
or the West Umatilla extension
Chamberlain has been trying to get
something done on this project. He
took up the matter and showed by
reference to the chronology in the
case that there had been very long
delay. He felt that It had been mex
cusable.
The former administration, he
showed had expressly approved the
project and after inducing private in
terests at great inconvenience to sign
up contracts to come within the rec
lamation project, Secretary Fisher, as
one of the last acts of his administra-
tion. had turned it down. and this,
Chamberlain felt. was nothing short
OF an outrage.
I'm my opinion" he said there is
no question but that work on the pro-
ject would have been begun long ago
but for the red tapeism in the de-
partments here that obtained prior
to this administration. but which I
hope will be abolished by this one.
Secretary Lane in view of the actions
by his predecessor. seems disposed
to take this matter up as an entirely
new proposition. have no particular
objection to that but am going to
try to show him as clearly as I can
that if any individual had gone as
far as the government had gone in
this matter. a court of equity would
compel such individual to carry out
to the letter the terms of his con-
tract
"The same rule of morals ought to
apply to the government as would APP
ply to an individual. and believe
Secretary Lane will see it that way"

Mixed With Sulphur Makes Hair
Soft, Lustrous and Cures
Dandruff.

The use of Sage and sulphur for re-
storing faded, gray hair to its natur-
al color dates back to grandmother's
time. She kept her hair beautifully
darkened, glossy and abundant with
a brew of Sage Tea and sulphur
Whenever her hair fell out or took
on that dull. faded or streaked ap-
pearance this simple mixture was
applied with wonderful effect.
But brewing at home is mussy and
out of date. Nowadays skilled chem
lists do this better than ourselves. BY
asking at any drug store for the ready
to use product-called "Wyeth's Sage
and sulphur Hair Remedy"-you will
get a large bottle for about so cents.
