ANOTHER YEAR.

Yesterday marked the dawn Of
1920 and it was a troubled morning
just one year ago, joyous in the pros
pect of an early return to peace and
its blessings, America stood impa-
tient upon the threshold Of another
year. Instead of peace plenty and
satisfaction in the inherent JOY Of liv-
ing, we have watched domestic prob
lens swell until today we face 1927
just little heartsick and more than
little worried. This year is certain
10 be crucial year.
Hope lies in the eternal ability OF
future events to absorb the problems
of today. Things. you know, have an
uncanny faculty of working out il
only you give them time. While Am
erica harbors malcontents, their pow
err to hamper progress and put off the
day Of stability is opposed by lOO.-
100000 people who say nothing ano
saw wood. Some day the quiet but
insistent voice OF the multitude will
be heard above bombs and soap bon
orators and We will begin to see real
light ahead. That time is due in

-Oregonian.
That such thing should ever be
commented upon, even in irony or
sarcasm, is sufficient indictment
of justice goine astray. What is true
in Washington is 70 less true in
Canyon county.
Think over the list of Canyon coun-
ty crimes which have resulted in
death to- human being. Then co,
gitate on the number of persons re-
sponsible for the death of fellow
man who have been penalized &C
cording to law for their act. 1t is
needless for us to recite the list: it
is suffice to say that of all the persons
hailed before court of justice, only
one has been convicted in the past
half dozen years in murder or man.
slaughter charge.
Bootleggers, felons of any kind on
the other hand may as we'll plead
guilty and make preparations to serve
their sentence. We are not attack
ing the efficiency of the law in dis
posing of these crimes; perpetrators
should be punished But does II no,
seem rather incongruous that a per-
son responsible for taking another
humans life should almost invariably
be permitted to go free while any per
son responsible for an infinitely ies-
Ter offense should be given as invari
ably a maximum sentence?
There are cxtenuating circumstanc
cs which may excuse murder but the,
are few. II seems to us that somc
of the pleas successfully advanced for
the liberation of persons responsible,
for the destruction of life. human
beings most sacred possession, ar,
rather far fetched. Surely somethin,
is wrong when the law exacts great
err punishment from joy rider thai
from murderer.

RETURNING THE RAILROADS.

President Wilson has postponed the
date of return Of the railway systems !
of the United States from public to
private control from January until
March l. Absence of legislation to
cover the situation is the primary
cause of this action.
While American people are only too
glad to have the transportation system
revert to private operation in the hope
that time will restore some. at least,
of the efficiency and service given
in the past by those lines. no man can
ask that they be handed over in the
present muddled condition that they
are in. Vastly increased operating
costs have placed the railroads in the
same position VIGOROUSLY occupied by
practically all public utilities. They
cannot hope to meet expenses and it
is no more than justice that the gov
eminent assure investors in railroads
reasonable return on their invest
ments rather than drive them into
the hands of receivers within the next
few months.
While the government can made ap-
preparations to cover the deficiencies
corporations are not endowed with a
pool Of funds that can be replenished
by gouging the public pocket when the
store runs low.
The United States has $200O0,OO0
tied up in its transportation systems
Almost that much more is needed il
we are to have system commensurate
with he nations needs. Transportat-
ion is the back bone of American in
dustrial leadership and is an asset tina,
must not be permitted to decay. Con-
gress can do no more than insure the
future welfare of the country by grant
ing railroads a reasonable opportunity
to recuperate from the stagnation Of
the past few years.
And while the government is pri
marily responsible for the situation Of
today and the enormous losses tina,
are daily being piled on the shoulders
of tax payers through deficiencies ir
operation incomes from the railroads
there probably is no other way for the
time at least, to insure reasonable re-
turns than by guaranteeing it from
the same source that the government,
has met past deficiencies. But thai
remedy is only passing. The rail-
roads must be put on permanent pay
ing basis. And the only possible wa,
to do that is by increasing revenues
from freight and passenger service.

IDAHO SUFFRAGE.

Governor Davis has called special
session Of the legislature to raitfy the
suffrage constitutional amendment. 1t
seems that q sufficient number OF
states will have approved the propos-
al before February when the Idaho
solons meet that this states vote will
virtually adopt the federal amend
ment
Idaho has always been a suffrage
leader and under the circumstances it
is no more than right that this stare
should not tarnish its record by with
holding the ratifying vote, thus rob-
bling millions of women voters an OPP
portunity to share the election of the
next president. Governor Davis has
done well.
And it is to be sincerely approved
that he did not maintain his first idea
OF calling the legislators together at
their own expense. While we believe
in economy, that means to conserve
a few dollars is not the way to effec,
saving. Ii it is worth doing at all
it is worth paying for.
