Cello the state engineer estimates an
immense amount of electrical energy
may be developed at such a cost as to
make it possible to give electricity to
the consumer at less than SO per
horse power per annum.
What SO horse power would mean
to the people may be realized when
it is known that the electric trust now
charges $50 per horse power and up
wards for its current when used for
manufacturing purposes. When the
electricity is used for lighting pur-
poses the charge is much heavier.
Electricity at SO per horse power
would mean everything TO Oregon. 1t
would reduce lighting rates, it would
develop manufacturing. foster irriga-
ton. cheaper transportation and bet
ter the state in a thousand ways
Such power development would pro-
vide electricity for rural districts as
well as for cities ami towns. 1t would
do much work on the farm. 1t would
mean people could not only light their
houses by electricity but they could
also cook by electricity and heat their
homes through use of the magic cur
rent 1t would revolutionize society
ir the northwest
This may seem a dream but it is
one that may be made TO come true
The power is there and now goes to
waste. The Columbia may be har-
messed at Cello and at other points,
notably at Cascade Locks. The Des-
chutes is also a great power stream
and considera bic power may be de-
veloped from smaller streams such as
the John Day. Umatilla and Walla
Walla. II Is only necessary that the
power be developed and developed on
such a basis as TO serve the people.
When s. horse power can be deyel-
oped It should go to the people on that
basis not on basis OF $50 horse
power. To bring such results II is
necessary OF course that the work be
done by the state or national govern
nent or by the cooperation Of both.

Two years ago by treaty between
Russia, Great Britain and Japan joint
protection was provided for the seals
at sea and the United States passed a
law prohibiting the killing of seals
on the islands for a period of five
years.
/ So effective has been this regula-
/ ton that already it is considered prac.
ticable to reopen that field. The in
crease of the herd during the past
year is reported by the officials in
charge as mounting from 140. 900 last
year to 215,OO0 by actual count. In
these conditions, the president recon-
mends to congress consideration of
whether the complete suspension OF
land killing is now necessary for the
protection and preservation of the
herd and for increasing its number.
Many will endorse the recommen-
dation made by Governor West in his
biennial message to
a Reformatory. the effect a refor-
matoTy should some
day be established in oregon and a
certain class Of prisoners held there
instead Of at the penitentiary. 1t is
step that is advised by nearly all
who are familiar with prison affairs
and is urged by Governor Hoch Of
Kansas who was here but recently.
At the present time the state throws
youthful first offenders and hardened
criminals together in the penitentiary
The fellow who has made one misstep
Is branded the same as the veteran
crook. II is not right and it does not
bring the best results. Reformation
is the object Of the law as we'll as
punishment and the state could do far
more effective work through use of
reformatory than by casting all con-
victed men into the penitentiary AMI
putting the taint Of that prison upon
them.
Should the plan for a reformatory
be adopted the scheme would prob
ably not cost the state an extra dol
lar. A reformatory could be made
self supporting and would save the
state money through reclaiming
slightly wayward men from the path
Of crime thus keeping the state from
future expense.

The Cost of Religion.

Sometimes we hear the complaint
that religion is too costly. Going to
church we are told costs too much
nowadays and men say that the gospel
should be preached without money and
without price THE Lutheran snakes
this reply: Last year about $250,000
was spent to keep the work of $4,000
churches in America going-an aver
age of about $1,000 per communicate
member. One would think that if re-
ligion is really worth much it should
make much heavier demands on the
purse than that Confectionery and
soft drinks, however, seem to be worth
more to the American people than re-
ligion, for $320,O00OO0 is spent for
these articles. The automobile bill ID
double what it costs to run the church
es, and the jewelry bill exceeds it more
than three times. The theatre and
moving picture bill is equally in ex-
cess. Men and boys land even some
women) puff nearly five times that
amount into tobacco smoke every year,
and the large army of intoxicant low
ers spend ten times that sum to satisfy
a craving which means the ruination

Great Work Completed

The Congo Reform Associations,
formed nearly ten years ago. having
finished the task for which it was Gre
ated, recently disbanded. 1t was
through this Organization that start
ling charges were brought against
King Leopold of Belgium for his cam
paign of cruelty in connection with
the gathering of crude rubber by the
natives of the Congo basin. The as.
sociation focused the attention OF the
civilized world upon an intolerable sit
uation and brought to bear upon it all
the forces of righteous public indigna-
ton.
The association had five objects
each of which has been attained. They
were: The abolition of atrocities; the
abolition of the main features upon
which the slave system reposed; the
separation OF the administrative from
the commercial element; direct taxa
ton in place of irregular demands for
rebber; freedom of trade.
The civilized world owes a great
debt to the Englishmen who formed
this association. For twenty-five eyars
the Congo country was the scene Of
some of the most ruthless savagery

about an equal number of city boys, at

the general stampede that resulted put
