O ROUGE PUTKAM, Editor and Mnnnirer THAT gifted statesman, Congressman Hawley, lias spoken again, and advises republicans to throw; over the assembly. AVo use the word gifted seriously because ve believe that he possesses the most remarkable hind sight of any man in public life in the state. A few weeks ago Mr. Uawley announced that he did not believe Cannon should bo speaker again. At that time the Mail Tribune criticised that utterance because it was so palpably prompted by desire for votes, llis last speech at Salem confirms the impression that he is a cheap po litical trimmer, who wants to hold office for the salary attached to it, and for that, purpose is wilting to embrace I any belief that may get him a few otes, or abandon his i former political associates for tho same reason.

' Twenty-five Years Ago Today. Charles Stewart Parnell, Ire land's "uncrowned king." open ed tho famous electoral cam paign of 1SS5 as leader of the New Irish Party at Wlcklow. ed for years, but from his lips there has never been heard a word of protest against the corrupt corporate influences in American politics. During his four years in the house Congressman Haw ley has had a thousand opportunities to utter a word of protest against Canuonism and the S3stem, but who has ever heard even a whisper by him along that line? "When the insurgents were battling for the people, what "-as Hawley's position? With Cannon and the system eveiy time. He not only voted with the system, but would chancre his vote at Cannon's command, as he did on the ! motion to expel the lobbyists for the ship subsidy from the floor or the house. Hawley's excuse has been that he had to sell his sup port to get appropriations for Oregon. If that is the price of the meager appropriations Oregon gets out of the mil lions wrung from her people by an extortionate tariff, a self-respecting man should refuse to pay, and the people would honor him for his refusal. If that is the price the system is rotten and-decency demands its destruction. But Mr. Hawley had opportunity to show his cour age to the people when appropriations were not the issue. "When the line of battle was formed to destroy the primary law in Oregon and substitute the assembly, we find him dumb. When the Grange asked his opinion on State ment No. 1, he refused to express his opinion. But when Cannon is politically dead, he discovers that he is against him. When the assembly forces are routed, he is willing to abandon it. What confidence can people place in such pretensions, especially from one who started out to make politics a life work? Hawley's unfitness is demonstrated by ,his own acts and words. He possesses neither definite ideas nor moral courage. His pursuit of office is like vultures searching for carrion he cares not for smell or rottenness, if per mitted to gorge.
