Building entered at the postotnen ut Halein,or.,ait second-clans matter, HATURDAY NIGHT HOLII.OQCV. Last Saturday nltlit we oonHldcre d clnchea. How nil were seeking them; bow In alt ranks and profex- alons thedealre to get the long end of the slick, tho appetite to grub (more than we are entitled to, the dlfteaae called ael dullness; how this uffllcls nearly all humuu ellort, and yet to a certain extent, helps move oclety along. We are never to admit for a mo ment that the clucb, or the ilnch disposition In any form, is right In principle. It Is eternally false, aud only when seinsbness has been abandoned has the world really moved .along. We are not to say men shall not look uft-.T their own interests. We are uot to say a niuu shall not push bis own business. The man who truly and uprightly presses bis own occupation to suc cess also truly and uprightly' help society. You can lift no part of the load without making the whole burdeu lighter. You can refuse to lift no part, soever small, without making the rest of mankind bear a heavier load. That Is a universal law. Self-help Is the best help fur society. But the man who ever helps himself, who is never moved to lay aside his own considerations of Interest to do anything for any body, is not true to the higher light. He has not reuched a stage of de velopment much above the hug. He is beneath the dog or cat aud many other aulmuU, in moral evo lution. Generous impulses never euter his breast. He has no more heart to help a weak brother than a stone. The man who asks a cinch in any walk in life arrays himself against the world-thought. The world-idea is equality. Stand upon your own bottom. Exist by merit. The day of special favors to any is rapidly passing away. ' No man is entitled to more than his share of the blets iuga of humanity. If by force or fraud be take more, the whole world regards him as u despoiler who must disgorge. The cinch destroys Independence of him who gets it. He relies upon his artificial advantage and society i-ousplrea to trip him up. Give a young man a fortune to go into business with. He bus .the advan tage of all bis competitors In posaens ing capital, and his name, is good at the bank, This very fact sharpens the wits of the world against him, aud It conspires to achieve his down fall Hnd nine times out of ten with success. The cinch corrupts the Individual who receives it and the society which flatters und endures It. It corrupts men, morals and govern ment at its core. The contractor who by collusion staudd in with the ring in power aud gets bids accepted against all comers and at his own terms, is Ioked upon us a public nemy and never enjoys the royal honors of wearing an untarnished utuc Individually he who serves him self most, serves himself worst, ixive, esteem, troops of friends and undying affection of kin art) only won by unselfish service of others than self. He who stauds highest in the world's esteem camo not to serve himself, but laid dowu his life for others, in assailing uud rebuking the cinches he found tho worlo cursed with. He came not to be ministered unto, but In minlHlor un to others. TUG OKKOON MTK1HIIV HUUKAU. Oueofthe ways of working the press aud the people Is by means of establishing a literary bureau, The invention ot this engine of political warefure Is ascribed to the astute Samuel J, Tilden, Such a concern has recently been organized in Portland, culled the "Northwes News and Literary Bureau.'' -No one is apparently responsible for it, N. individual' name appears upon ita stationary or circulars or letters prepared for the press. The letters are prepared by as able and polished writers for the press a can he found In Portland; usually laldug several columns pace; type is set and neatly prluted; they are sept out weekly with a re. quest that I ho publisher send a regular order $1 a week. If he does pot send the order the letters keep coming just the same. Having u price fixed to them, the publishers, often hard up for copy, Is tempted to use this convenient copy, little thinking that by o doing he Is playing Into the hands of the pub lic's enemies. Now, as o the contents of these letters sent out by (his Portland literary bureau i "Conservative Leg. Nation Needed" Is the title of the onejust received. It is a well pre pared argument to convince the I reader that tho country Is lit danger irow cottoeawoiis in (lie legislation to Third parties, "contwslonq of the most dangerous character made to trades unions and labor or ganization"," the "danger of de stroying nud crippling largo Inter ests." Tho wrller conjures up the following lurid ghost dance over tho dangers that threaten the nutlon as: seen by his distorted vision. The demand tbat the,, government shull fleece the capitalists to teed laborers. It Is not too late to arrest the progress of this "dangerous doc trine, that labor may dictate to both capital and co-labor and enforce its orders by force, duress, obstructing travel, trade aud ommercc en dangering the lives of peaceable citizens, destroying property nud turning a government of rx-ace nud kw into one of the torch aud the sword. But Its headway must be stopied by a system of legislation which renders unlawful combina tions Impossible. Of course, this Is nil written to reach the ear of the Oregon legisla tor. He is to read this political wisdom In ills local paper uud ns that represents all bis constituents it comes with alt the authority of the divine voice of the people, an appeal fur conservative legislation. This literary bureau If well work ed may be the meau& of frightening more than one legislator Into the much desired conservative mood, when be will regard with proper horror all granger und labor bills that will tra iutroducid. This literary bureau seems to look upou all steps taken bj organized labor and producer to protect themselves as a demand of the government to "ftVeee capital." Yet where is there a country where organized capital has "ileeced1' moie success fully and more extensively thuu here? England Is a country where capital rules, and sends expeditious to explore "darkest Africa," while "darkest Ejgland" p-eseuts pictures of the poveriy and degradation of masses who arc uot even permitted to toll. Yet capital has so much greater a leverage upon the labor and produce of this conn try tint $400,000,030 of English capital came here to be invested last year. No, indeed, do not permit labor to organ ize! It is literally waste of time to argue against the theories of this literary enormity. The couutry Is rapidly passing beyond. Tf there ureuuy newspiper men in the stale who will nay for those Installments nt pen-product for a purpose, und uot dlsluteiested nt that, we feel sorry for their poor judgment as to Investments. We cannot Imagine there are many suctl. Should there be they know not what they are buying on this occasion. st WHAT DDKS WILI.A.UHTTK WANTT There Is a general feeling that this Salem and surrounding couutry community do uot know just what Willamette University wants. Of course, this Is in the way of finan cial aid to remain In Salem. Tbat Is now the sole proposition. Other places make large offers to get the UulverMty away. What does Wil lamette waut to r.malu? if it could- bj believed for a moment that Portland will give tt!oO,000 in cash to secure the removal of the University to that place, bpw much ought Halem bo asked to give to retain it? Stepped oi real eiiiate enterprise and speou utlvc considerations, hou much does Portland really offer? Cut) this question not be tcduced to a hard cash proposition ? ..While some branches, as medical or )aw, might bo pursued to greater 'advantage in a larger illy, it Is not a fact tbat the great universities are located in large places. Universlilta huvu built up luige cities. It Is not dl.o so much as university almcs phere and reputation, fur culture that make a successful university or university towu. We believe that can Im) fostered at Salem as well as at Portland, If the means nro at hand, Concede for the sake of argument I hat Portland offers 1230,000 cash, What shall Salem do? That figure Is fur beyond our city's reach. Are there not other considerations? Willamette at Portland will have Increased attendance as well as in creased expenses. Greater style uud a more expensive force of professois must he retained, What Will it cot in fit up the Institution there? What ttimalntulu? The probltm has no doubt been, fully considered In all its bearing by trustees. For u much smaller sum Willamette may be helped as much, and be as well off, aud a well equipped at Salem, as at Port? lund with a mud; larger, What will bo tho right thing to do In the premises ut Salem ? This Is what ibis community desires to coiiiprer hend clearly, uud then It will he pre pared to act. Oen, HoctTof the Buvatlon Army, lias a scheme for reducing tho poverty and misery of London, While the world m been golpg wild over Stanley and "Darkest Africa," the gieut Salvationist has been investigating nearer home,-, sensible, by I be way and has dls covered, that Ihem Is durkiie-s, misery, degradation and slavery lu the ery heart of so called clvzf. jinn.
