OREGON HAS GOOD WAY
They have an election law down in
Oregon which provides that the names
of candidates for United States Senator
c?n be put on the ballot and voted for
like those for governor or other state
offices. They also have a^rimary elec
tion law, giving every voter an oppor
tunity to express his choice for his par
ty's nominees. The result is that most
of those who are aunouocing their can
didacy before the primaries for legisla
tive positions are pledging themselves
to vote for the man for senator who
gets the most votes at the state elec
tion. That comes about as nearly
electing United States senators by a
vote of the people as is possible under
the constitution of the Uuited States,
which makes that a duty of the state
legislatures.
If there were as much public talk of
war between the United States and
some European country on the part of
American officials, civil and military,
as there is by them of the probability
of war in China, the declaration would
not b? long Jelayed. Noting this con
stant waving of a red fli ^before the
Orientals, Minister Rockhill,at Peking,
says the greatest danger to Amei icans
in China is the "yellow press'' of the
United States. If public officials would
make less^war-like n.'ws the news
papers would contain les?.
Now the question is, whether the
seed dealers or the desire to curtail
governmental expenditures had most
to do in the abandonment of the free
garden seed disiribution tbat has so
long been one of the prerequisites of
the congressman.
In commenting upon the reception at
Sitka of the news of Gov. Brady's res
ignation the Sitka Cablegram says it
was remarkable how few expressions
of r<. gret there were.
