Postmaster at Hoqulam. WASHINGTON, Feb. 11. Tho sen- nto this afternoon confirmed tho up. pointment of It. IT. Philhriuk to be poaluuiblor at Uoquiam, Wash, FOOLISH TALK PRESIDENT GARY of tho stool trust 1ms boon doing some foolish talking about mob rule and revolution, and trying to nmko out conditions in Amorioa today par allel those in Eranoo prior to tho reign of terror. lis remarks betray .Mr. Clary's ignoraneo both of con ditions in America today and tliose of eighteenth century France. Every time there is a lull in (he feverish commercial activity of the nation, every time there is a pause in the mad scramble for dollars, every time conditions force the promotion of bread lines in the great cities there is this same talk by some executive of inflated monopoly, fat tened at the expense of the people by special privilege who hears the voice of tho people but from afar. High finance has had a merry carnival in the United States. Scarcely an industry that has not boon over cap italized, and the many forced to pay tribute. Government lias boon perverted to divert the earnings of the many into the pockets of the few, by means of politics and corruption, and what might be called the blindness of the masses. The national poliev of taxing poverty instead of wealth has aided the creation of the billionaire and the pauper. Today tho actual producor has little left but :i living everything he buys or sells pays a levy to a watered Security. The rich are growing richer and the poor arc growing poorer as is bound to be the case when a nation's natural resources have been gobbled up by a few and the many forced to pay tribute. It is so in every "developed'' coun try, wherever privilege sits enthroned. , But "bad as conditions are, they arc only as yet notice able during the periodical periods of depression that a fool financial system engenders. "Until bellies are empty, peo ple do not think. The full dinner pail is the price for gov ernmental robbery and jobbery in a. nation of dollar chasers. If conditions continued from bad to worse for decades, we might fear the mob though the mob has never yet pre vailed in an Anglo-Saxon nation. But the corrective in fluences are already at work. Political unrest and insur gency fill the land. The very causes which produced pres ent conditions will also produce the remedy. Privilege, the source of the disease, must be and will be eradicated not at once, but step by step, not by bloody revolution, but by ballot, and with the cancer eliminated normal conditions will be restored. Humanity's progress is very slow towards Utqpia. Democracy has been creeping siowly along the path of progress for many centuries but it will eventually arrive. TO DELIVER THE GOODS. ACTION of the republican state central committee in appealing to the courts to set aside the presidential primary law is the initial step in the attempt to deliver Oregon to Taft in the national convention. Federal patronage, in Oregon has been the price paid by the president for the delegation. He had delivered his part of the bargain. It is now np to the committeemen to deliver their part. The only possible show of the committee's delivering the goods is to have the rank and file denied a voice in the instruction of delegates and old machine methods restored. Hence the courts are appealed to. SANCTIONING ADULTERATION. ALTHOUGH the use of saccharin as a substitute for sugar is acknowledged as deleterious to health, the department of agriculture has sanctioned its use since the pure food law Went into effect. The referee board, after months of procrastinated investigation, reported adversely to its use. The department declared that after July 3, 191, foods containing saccharin would be considered adul terated within the meaning of the drug and foot! act. Upon protest by the manufacturers who substitute the cheap drug for wholesome sugar, the accommodating de partment extended the time to January 1, 3912. Upon January 1 the time was again extended until February 1 and then until March 1. What is the matter with the department of agriculture that it grants so many favors and concessions to food adulterers?
