TO HONOR A GREAT MAN.

Portland. Oregon, is about to erect a monu- ment in that city a memorial to Harvey ". Scott fer nearly half a century editor of the Oregonian. IL is appropriate that Portland should do that. Harvey Scott probably the biggest developed in the Oregon metropolis. Not only did he create great newspaper along national lines, that recognized through out the country of the leading newspapers of the nation but he a Iii Il g champion for all that would count for the per manent good of his city and State There was rarely list of great American editors made in his day that his name was not in it.
 MT. Scott a product of Oregon and Washington. He lived in boyhood near Olympia and educated in Oregon. He made bril- liant record at college, and began his wonderful journalist in his early twenties Except for one term as Collector of Customs at Portland he never held an office, and his paper lost many election. In fact, there have been times when it said that if wanted to win office in Oregon all that neces- sary to be opposed by the Oregonian. How ever, his paper always a leader of thought and usually the public followed sometimes at a dstnce but nearly always it finally occupied the position the oregonian had pointed out the best
 impress and universally missed when he passed away than Harvey w. Scott editor of the 0regonian

Work for Women.
Washington Post.)

Although there has been but slight increase in the number of women gainfully employed over the figures of 1910, the specialization of women in labor is noticeable fact. Women have turn ed from agriculture and domestic service jobs and have gone into professional work. One of the factors that have inclined women toward office and like activities is the growth of apart ment living. With the of a house lifted from many of them, they go out into en- poyment with mobility and independence that they could not readily command when house. hold drudgery consumed their time and strength
 Women have secured for themselves the rat ing of men industrial factors and have steadily advanced toward the goal of equal pay for equal work. Increased educational advantages have meant much to the Today the ability of the sexes differs less than the ability of individuals Women often put in charge of forces com posed mosly of men.
 The bogy of the decline of the home has not found warrant with the emancipation of woman for housework. Neither the home nor the home idea has declined.

CANDIDATES IN
MAD SCRAMBLE
FOR DELEGATES
Campaign in State Growing
Hotter, With Primary

BY ROBERT BEARD

With the primary election only
thirty days distant, candidates and
their supporters are INDUCING in q
mad scramble for State convention
delegates as if it we're an accepted
fact that primary ballots May 8
for presidential preference, United
States Senator and Governor are
little more than straw votes"
The increasing fervor with which
two presidential camps, five sena-
tOrial aspirantS and eighteen candi-
dates for the governorship are dig
ging away at the bottom of the
nominative structure instead of
sticking to the less difficult task Of
speech-making has its cause in
generally accepted conclusion.
The conclusion is that nominal
tons for Governor and United
States Senator will not be effected
in the primary, for lack of major
tiles, and that all the loser of the
Watson Hoover presidential clash
stands to gain is the delegate
strength he saIvages from his oppo-
nent'S victory.
