Some Press Comment Congressman Latterly says lie will b Candida e for re-election and propos enlivening his campaign with a libel suit HKainst the Oretronian for alleged misstatements reflecting upon himself Eugene Register. Laifertv clai.oa t? be b bachelor, 3(i years of age. A man who shows no better sense in woman affairs than he does is not fit to represent Oregon in Congress. He shook! at least show enough political sense to step down and out and not wait for the good citizenship of his district to knock him down. Vale Lafferty .' He's too small in the upper tor;. With the creation of the third con gressional district in Oregon, the new office is drawing candidates like honey draws flies. Almost every town of any importance has an ambitious politician who would like to make the trip back to 'Washington. The process of elimina tion will begin soon but indications are that each party will have a hard fight at the primaries before it nominates a standard bearer. Tbe final battle of tbe ballots promises to be most interesting for the Democrats will try hard to add one more to the majority which their party has in the lower house while tbe Republicans with their 8000 handicap will try i list as bard to prevent a bad precedent beiDg established.

Blue Mountain Eagle. Neither Crnighton nor McDonald had their liberty twelve hours after they got out of the mountains and into towns where peace officers were informed of the escaped prisoners. They were pick -ni up just as though the oilioers knew they were coming. These men would never have been safe any wnere in the United States and their appren- sioo was but a question of time. Blue Mountain Eagle. For Sale, Few Day Only. To friends and purchasers, some fur niture is offered at reasonable prices, in the Baptist Parsonage. If interested, call soon, C. H. Davis and wife. Salem has just had an exciting time due to assaults made on two women near that city by a paroled negro coo vict. It will, perhaps, require a crime of heinous nature to convince the Ore goo people that the wholesale parole business being indulged in at the state penitentiary is not what it is cracked up to be. But lessons, however costly, seem to be necessary some times to open tbe eyes of the blind. On the same day that this black yillain assaulted two Salem, women a Pennsylvania mob burned a negro murdered at the stake. Shall we return this Salem negro to the parole again or shall be be put where be will never again have opportunity to assault defenseless women ? It is abou t time Governor West displaced maudlin sentimentality with regard to convicts for comnonsense dealing with them. Eugene Register. Richelieu, the French statesman, who once advised members of his dip lomatic corps never to write love letters would undoubtedly bold Congressman Latterly in utmost contempt. Puerile in the extreme has been the conduct of the Oregon representative. Even though tbe letter to the Washington school girl had been "his first offence," would have been enough to have randed him as decidedly immature and youthful in thought. A sixteen year old school boy might have been excused, "but it is far from manly in one who calls himself a statesman and who has reached the age of thirty six, eyen though hia appearance is boyish. It seems, l.owever, that the Washington affair is one of many. The man is to be pitied as well as censured. The long drawn out explanations iiave made bad matters worse. The egotistio express ions of the Congressional biseball cap tain are sometimes funny but more often repugnant. Hood River Glacier.

Edison Phonographs and records for sale by Patterson & Son.- If cleanliness is next to godliness as the old passage- declares, then State School Superintendent Alderman is a latter day apostle. In his pamphlet on the new course of study just off the press, he admonishes all teachers to see that their pupils keep their haircombed, treir finger nails ciean and attend to other details of their toilet. Eatt Ore gonian. Tbe dispatches recently received how ft clergyman resigned because be wanted to marry and realized that be could not earn a livelihood in bis pulpit. Now thev tell us of the suicide at Pendleton oi John Reeves, a retired clergyman, because of inability to earn a living. All over the country, there are accotots of ministers forsaking the pulpit for other and more remunerative etnploy ' ment. In a single state last year, 23 cleagymen resigned their pulpits and went into the life insurance business. The comDensation of the pulpit is so inadequate that the denominations are no longer able to secure a sufficient sup ply of preacbe's. In 1900, the Baptist church had ti302 more church buildiogs than ministers, the Lutherans 3353, the Presbyterians 1855 and the several Methodists 20,253. The average pay of pastors in the United States, taking no account of col ored preachers, is $063 a year. In some of the smaller denominations tbe salaries are beggarly. The average pay in one small denomination is $111 a year. In another, it is only 8121. In another well known denomination, there were 2-500 ministers who received as much as 81000 last year, and the other 5000 received an average of only $0C0. The pay in one denomatiou south of the Ohio river and where that organ- iition is the strongest, is only 3ti7 a year, or about a dollar a day. We expect our ministers to be able, eloquent and effective, but we pay them less than our teamsters, carpenters and bricklayers. We commit to them the salvation ot !ouih, but pay thun less than street cleaners. We demand that they be cultured, that their families pre sent a respectable appearance and that they serve us 3(i-5 days in the year, and on the average give them leas compen sation than fewer diggers. The pulpit is worthy of better hire. Ttie tragedy of John Reeves is a protest. Journal. There is more interest being taken tSis year in the county and district fairs than at any time previous.
