Mondny'a city election at Portland teaches aKHln that corporations and moneyed Interests nave little to aay In governmental affairs under our bencflclent Oregon System. Under the Direct Primary Law, as written on our statute books, all a candidate has to do to win favor wth the people, or i at least with a great mass of the peo ple, is to mount the handy band wa gon at the nearest atreet corner and yell his head off for the System, to declare his friendship for the "com mon' people and to damn the cor porations. It is the popular thing to do, and realizing it, many of our budding young aspirants have quickly come In to public favor and are carefully watching the trend of public opin ion, so ss to be ready to jump side ways when the time is ripe. The average man's point of view U quite likely to be taken from his own station In life. If a man is working for $2 a day, very probably he will look with envious eyes upon the more fortunate fellow who has, perhaps through Industry and hours of toll, reached a point where he is beyond the expectation of a daly wage and who has a business of his own. On the other hand, the man of business fears for his own structure, and wants In office the official of his kind, and is afraid to turn over the reins of government to the man who has de clared his friendliness to the wage earner and his hatred to the so-called capitalistic class. We are apt to have this condition with us for a long time to come. There should not be such a great gulf be tween labor and capital, but it ex ists, just the same, and it is deplora ble to face the fact that it does not( narrow. The point of view makes all the difference, and that point is what makes harmony impracticable. Simon and Rus'niight are merely In cidents. Simon has always been a machine-made politician and his recent spasmodic shout for a commission gov ernment carried little weight Rush light has been building np an organi zation for the last two years and it was formidable to a degree. The vic torious candidate is said to have had the Bourne machine behind his can didacy and that organization has shown more than once that it is a host to be reckoned with In the politi cal affairs of Multnomah County. Prob ably Rushlight's public and private life is as clean as Simon's, and even so, it is saylr.g little If it is not cleaner. Even if Mr. Rushlight is a product of the Bourne machine, the Simon man agers are hardly in a position to point an accusing finger at blm. "Let him who is without sin cast the first stone." Ralph Clyde is the despicable pro duct of the Bourne organization. It is difficult to see why any set of poli ticians should assist a man of Clyde's , calibre into public office. The day Is sure to come when this person of small parts will take keen delight in throwing down the very men who ele vated him. In the meantime no doubt he will be useful. The debasing ef fect of politics in his election can hardly be imagined. - WHAT A SHORT BALLOT MEANS. It is Indeed refreshing to see the Oregonian burst into applause over the short ballot, and to learn of the Portland newspaper's commendation of the plan that will result in the adoption of the short ballot system. "The matter of candidates," says the Oregonian, "is easily disposed of by making many of the minor officials ap pointive. The people gain nothing but corruption by electing them." Well, well, this Is good newi. for fair. It has not been so long ago that the Oregonian stood up on its hind legs and yelled itself hoarse because BUILDING A CREDIT Credit is the temporary use of funds belonging to others, and returning them promptly when due. It is the part of wisdom to establish one's credit. Meeting every obligation promptly lays the foundation. Having an account with this bank helps a long way. This bank takes especial pleasure in aiding its clients to establish themselves upon a good credit basis. Don't wait until you want to borrow. Begin to establish your credit now The Bank of Oregon City THE OLDEST BANK IN THE COUNTY the People's Power league proposed ,to amend the comttltutlon to provide for the election of the principal offi cers of the stale and county and the appointment of the "minor'' oflclals. Just what a "minor" official Is has not yet been explained. The league's measure aroused surh a storm of an tagonlam from the press that further consideration of It was withdrawn, and It never went on the ballot. The departure from the old established elective system seemed to be too rad leal to please the thoughtful brains of muny of our best citizens. The short ballot, however, gains practically the same end, but Its sup port from reactionary newspapers conies from the belief thnt a remedy will be provided for the evils of a multitude of Initiative and referendum measures. We are not so sure. I'n less we are bady mistaken, the pur pose of the Short Ballot League is mainly to provide for the appointment of a lot of officers that are now elect ed by the people. The Oregonlan's closing editorial paragraph Is good, and we quote: When the regular legislative bodies have been so deselpllned that they function properly the people will look to them for desired laws Instead 01 resorting to the Initiative. The same cause will greatly diminish the use of the refendum. But in the meantime, some regulation of these salutary pro cesses Is essential to prevent abuse. The man who devises a plan which will prevent excesses and not hamper the prorer use of the initiative and referendum will deserve well of his countrymen. NO PARDON FOR BANKERS. It Is not surprising that the Presi dent has refused pardon to both of the two bankers, Morse and Walsh, whose large and Influential circles of friends have been working for their pardon ever since their Incarceration. Walsh is at Leavenworth and Morse at Atlanta. These efforts for pardon began, in each case, before imprison ment began and have been sustained in spite of many discouraging facts. No doubt they will be sustained, In hope of clemency at a later date. The President covers the ground well In announcing his reasons for re fusing pardon, says the St. Louis Globe-Democrat. He says that, while neither man contemplated theft, both were guilty of the highest breach of trust of which men can be guilty, viz., the breach of the trust the depositors and stockholders of a bank place in its executive officers and those in charge of its funds. He might have gone much farther than he did in laying down this moral and statutory law, without overstating the case. And he might have said directly, what he only Implies, that to pardon such of fenders would be, through condoning their offense, to strike a blow at the confidence of the public In the banks, at good faith and public credit These men, it is true, are victims of circumstances. What they did was done in a time of mad rage for great accumulations of wealth. "Get the money' was the keynote of all finance and commerce during the years In which their misappropriations of bank funds were being made. In the in surance revelations and in countless other revelations brought out In count less other In vestlgatlons, what were then called "strong men" In a callous indifference to business morals, the rights of others, and even of the criminal laws, were seen to be doing as they pleased. "Let us alone" was their Impudent cry, but of course it could not be heeded. There had to be propitiation, and, accordingly, there had to be sacrifices. HARMON LAUNCHES BOOM. Governor Judson Harmon, of Ohio, has a press agent who is no slouch. It Is evident that Ohio's favorite son views with alarm the Western popu larity of Woodrow Wilson, of New Jersey, for we have jsst received a letter from the American Press Asso ciation, offering us, without charge, six full columns of matter ready for the press. The proof sheets carry a very eulogistic stcrj ii Mr Harmon's achievements, with several fine pho tographs of the Harmon family. One picture shows Harmon fishing, and another with bis wife and grandchil dren. The free advertising stunt is good for Harmon and probably many of the email country weeklies will be glad to have six columns of matter, illustrated, composition fur nished, Just for the asking. Harmon, or whoever is backing him, has money to spend, apparently. Some of the stuff ernenating from the Chicago i Press Bureau Is silly. Here Is a para graph: Ohio repudiated her favorlto son, William II. Taft, President of the I'nlted States. Governor Harmon won the greatest Democratic victory In the history of Ohio or of the mid dle west, it was crushing blow to the President. Free trade sounds good for a cam paign cry. It really does sound good. It gets votes. Free wool was promised by the Democrats and the program II the House of Representative Is to ef fect a slight reduction In tne wool schedule and then to get behind a resolution that the Democratic party does not renounce Its principles. Just what Is there In the principles and promises of the Democratic party! The regulars have put one over the insurgents in the I'nlted States Sen ate in the appointment of another Lorimer Investigating committee. Why have another farce? The last one Is too fresh In the pnbllc mind. 1 45 Years Ago From the Weekly Enterprise, Novem ber 17, 1S6C. Waterloo. The famous high-bred trotting stallion Waterloo, Is now owned in this city by J. L. Harlow, who purchased him at the recent State Fair. Waterloo was t-red In 1S50 by Mr. Noble, of Plttsfield, Vermont, hence he is a "Green Mountain Hoy." He is a beautiful dark bay, IS 1-2 hands high, and In general appear ance very much, like Rifleman. For many years Waterloo stood at the head of the Western turf at a two- mile trotter, winning purses and prem iums wherever shown, in one instance (at Janesville. Wis.), winning the premium in the blood-ring over the famous Princeton, bred by John M. Clay, of Kentucky. He has trotted on Long Island, two mile heats, in 2:50 per mile; on Cambridge course, Mass.. in 2:14. He also won the silver cup, the sweepstake premium for roadster stallions, at the California State Fair in Sacramento last fall. His last appearance on the turf was at the Illinois State Fair at Freeport in 1859, where he won the society's purse and premium, trotting the seventh and last heat in 2:42. One of the get of Waterloo trotted In 2:34 last season, and his colts generally are considered fine. At the last State Fair in Salem, Waterloo made his mile in 2:56. New Mail Route. Postmaster Kelly, of this city, has received Instructions from Washington, to ascertain from the most authentic sources within his reach, the length of the route from Oregon City via Cutting's Mill, Glad Tidings, Silverton, Sublimity and Scio, to Lebanon, to be used in preparing the advertisement inviting proposals for mail service on it. and locating it upon the maps of the department. This route was established by act of Congress. aDDroved Julv 18. 186C, and we are very greatly pleased to an nounce the fact that It will soon be In operation. Fallen Out The bottom has so fallen out of the roads north and south of Oregon City, that the Stage Company are now compelled to run an open wagon In place of their Con cord coaches,' between Salem and Portland. If we are not sadly mis taken it is a great fault that better roads are not provided In Clacka mas county. In a future issue we propose to devote some of our time and space to the subject, and In the meantime we Invite correspondence from such of our citizens as take an interest in the matter. It Is well known by all that some measures ought to be Immediately adopted for these Improvements. What is the best plan? , The Oswego Furnace. We recently passed down the river to Portland from this city, and observed that the "stacks" of the first furnace being built at Oswego, in this county, by the Oregon Iron Company, was rapidly assuming large proportions, and gave evident songs of soon becoming use ful. The iron used in putting up this first furnace, we understand was im ported. It will not be long, however, after It gets into operation, before this furnace will build others. Oswego is destined to become the Pittsburg of this part of America. In Pitts burg, there are at this time forty-one foundries. We predict that a quarter of that number will be In operation at Oswego inside of ten years from now. The Pittsburg foundries employ an average of fifty hands each. Where there are such resources there Is something to support a population. In the first class establishments of Pittsburg from twenty-five to forty five tons of metal Is used in a single casting. The same can be done at Oswego. We look for the establish ment of rolling mills to follow the manufacture of iron at Oswego. The one now being thought of in California must come to us for iron. There has not been a time since the invention of rolling mills, when their production was greater needed than at present and this modern method of procuring the material in Oregon, when once fairly under way, promises great re sults. Close Call. As Sheriff W. P. Burns and his deputy were returning from a tax collecting tour, on Monday eve ning last, they narrowiy escaped from an unwelcome bath in the Tualatin, at the Moore's Mill crossing, where they were obliged to ford. The stream had raised some twenty inches since they had crossed, the day previous, and the current was rapid, nearly floating their bugs?y. After getting into the sti ?atn their only alternative was to come on which they did, for tunately, without accident. CRUELTY IS WIFE'S CHARGE. Beatrice M. Ivey, Suing, Declares Hus band Choked Her. Beatrice Mary Ivey has filed a suit for divorce against Charles W. Ivey to whom she was married at Centerville, Mont., on January 14, 1904. He Is ac cused of being cruel by Vis wife, Sne says his cruelties began at Gingham, Utah, about September 3, 1909, and she was compelled to leave him. She further asserts that he is a gambler, and is unable to support herself and the children properly. On one occasion he came home In a drunken condition, she asserts, and struck, choked and threw her down. Mrs. Ivey asks for the custody of the two children, Wesley, aged six years, and Gertrude, aged five years. She is represented by George L. Martin, of Portland. IGHT SIMON BY 3,000 MAYOR MAKES DISAPPOINTING 8HOWINQ IN RACE FOR RE-ELECTION, DEMOCRATIC NOMINEE'S VOTE SMALL Beldlng, Kubll And Concannon Be lieved to Have Been Defeated For Council Several Con tests Qlote. PORTLAND. Or.. June 5. (Special.) A. G. Rushlight. Republican nomi. nee, was today elected mayor of Port land by a plurality over Mayor Simon of between 3,000 und 4,000. Simon made a most disannulling showing. The returns early In the night Indi cated his defeat by a large vote. Incomplete returns from 85 to 155 precincts showed the followlug vote for mayor: Harrison (Pro.), 93; Ot ten (Soc.), 313: Rushlight (Rep.), 2222; Simon (Independent commission-government), 1440; Thomas (Dem).. 549. Mr. Rushlight's seasoned organiza tion proved Impregnable. The final returns may give him a majority over the four opposing candidates. The total vote cast was approximately 20, 000 or 70 per cent of the total regis tration of 37.655. Early returns clearly Indicate the defeat of the followlug Initiative meas ures: South Portland bridge, fire men's pension fund, policemen's pen sion fund, street-cleaning pension fund, no-seat-no-fare measure, public service commission, and municipal paving plant. The same returns show that bond Issues have been voted for a new City Jail, a municipal garbage collection system, and a public auditorium. The vote on an appropriation of $250,000 for the purchase of Council Crest, as well as on the anti-banners ordinance Is close. The Banie Is true of the lnlt'ative measures proposing a tax on the gross receipts for the sale of gas and electricity. George L. Baker, William H. Daly and J. J. Jennings were elected Coun-cilmen-at-Large for terms of four years each. John H. Burgard was elected to succeed himself for the un expired two-year term of Thomas C. Devlin. Ralph C. -Clyde, regular Re publican nominee, defeated C. L. Dag gett, Independent, for the two-year unexpired term of Gay Lombard. Frederick S. Wllhelm and Allan R. Joy were elected Councllmcn from the Fourth and Seventh Wards, respec tlvely. Very Incomplete returns In dicated the defeat of Councilman Concannon, Independent, from the First Ward, and the election of either Tom N. Monks, Democrat, or Jordan V. Zan, Republican. Councilmen Beldlng, In the Sixth, and Kubli, ain the Eighth, evidently have been defeated for re-election. John Montag, Democrat, has defeated Beldlng, and Kubll has been retired by William Schmeer, Republican, who ran as an Independent. STALLION LAW TO END REGISTRATION MEASURE WILL SAVE FARMERS THOUS ANDS OF DOLLARS. rnnvtt.l.is nr.. June 3. (Snec- ial.) Prediction is made by Professor E. L. Potter, of the animal husbandry ii.tmrtmi.nf of the Oregon Agricultural College, who is also secretary of the new state stallion license board, mat the operation of the new stallion law will save the horsemen of tne state many thousands of dollars. "If we had had the law berore it would have saved some $10,000 or lis (inn in tlio VirHpmen of the state on the price of animals sold them as pure bred under bogus certltlcatcs, said Professor Potter yesterday, dis cussing the results to be expected. "It is probable that $l,ow more was paid apiece for the dozen stallions with iiatisfiirtorv nedierees for whom we have received requests for license, than if a true statement oi ineir breeding had i;-n given at time oj sale. "We have thus far had applcatons from ai'out 4w stallion owners, wheh Is probably not much more than half the number of st.-illions owned at pres ent In Oregon. The greater number have come from Wallowa county, though many have come In from Mar lon, Douglas, Baker, and other parts of the state. We take these applica tions as an evidence of good faith-on the part of the breeders, and they will not, of course, be prevented from us ing their stallions between the filing of the application and the Issuance of the license. The heavy correspon dence regarding applications, and the work of classifying and filing them, occupies us at present, but when that is done we will 'begin issuing the li censes. "Besides correcting the present practice of some horsemen of selling and using stallions having bogus pedi grees, the new law will do much to raise the standard of soundness, and thus Improve the stock of the future. The future saving to horsemen of Oregon on these two points will be more than the entire cost of Inspec tion and registration, to say nothing of the prevention of the use of stal lions as 'sound' which have diseases or constitutional weaknesses liable to effect the offspring. Mr. A. J. Logsdon, of LaCrosse, Wash., intends to Import several car loads of brood sows from the Middle West. RUSHL BEATS DISTINGUISHED MEN OF ALL CREEDS HONOR GIBBONS. IIAl.TIMOllK, June 6. (Special.) The President of the United Btates, ex-President Roosevelt and muny oth er distinguished men today paid hom age to Cardinal Gibbous nt his Jubilee. President Tuft, Vice-President Sher man, Chief Justice White, ex Presi dent Roosevelt, Ambassador Hryco, of Great Britain, Speaker Clark, Senator Roo, of New York, Governor Crothers, of Maryland, ex Speaker Cannon, and Mayor Presly, of Baltimore, sat with the cardinal, and all of them except, the Chief Justice spoke In his praise. Among the fiOO guests seated on tint platform behind the President and'the Curdinal were more than a score of Senators and members of the House of Representatives. Probably a more distinguished gathering was never held in this country outside of Wash ington and the wheels of government came pretty near to a stop whllo those who sat In charge over them paid honor to the Cardinal. The armory holds 15.000 people, Its lull I dors say, and It was crowded to the doors, Messrs. Taft, Roosevelt and In fact all the speakers paid the cardinal the highest tributes. Members of all churches were present. If a colt Is worth raising at all he Is worth raising well. BEEF DEMAND DECREASES. High Prices of Past Six Months Are Not Maintained. PORTLAND. Or., June 5. (Special.) Receipts for the week have been: Cattle, 202C; calves, 19; hogs, lltIO; sheep, 7785; H H., 100. In the face of light receipts the cattle market continued In Its down ward trend and there was 75 cents difference In prices as compared with two wetks ago. Killers bought ex tensively In Colorado and Nebraska and were slow In taking hold of the offerings here. With the coming of spring and the use of vegetables for food, the demand for beef has fullen off and the high prices which have existed for the past six months could not be maintained. The lower prices have accelerated trading n stock cat tle and feeders and purchuses for feed lot purposes are being made freely. The hog market was lightly sup plied and there was a general strength ening of prices. Hogs weighing around 200 pounds sold at $085 and the demand was very active. There was a fair run of sheep, but not many thnt could be considered as first-class. Lamb sold at $0.50 and a fair lot of wethers that averaged 98 pounds sold at $4.25. One lot of thin wethers sold at $.1.35 and 1243 stock- ers sold at $2.50. The horse market showed more activity, with smooth drafters selling at $300. The following sales are representa tive: 130 Steers 1207 $i'..15 120 Steers 1097 5.90 223 Steers UG2 5.85 211 Steers 1142 5.G5 31 Cows 1030 5.75 10 Cows 1012 5.50 28 Cows 1034 5.15 58 Cows 935 5.10 8 Calves 194 7.00 4 Calves 3C2 5.25 3 Stags 1280 5.50 2 Bulls 1410 5.00 When You Feel discouraged, confused, nervous, tired, worried or despondent It Is a sure sign you need Mott's Nerverlne Pills.
