Our great and good-natured frlond,tho Orogonlnu, has never answered tho Inquiry of Tho Capital Journal about tho true character of tho Portland water supply. In Kb xual for bettor huh I tar y con ditions tho Orognnlnu linn severul times mntfo publlo HtntomoutB about tho DANGICHOUS CHARACTER OF THE WATER SUPPLY of several of tho valley townB. Then tho outcry of tho people of J tho valley towns wont tip Into tho utmosphoro with ohomouco. And thlit was their only mitlsfnetlon. Tho other day tho Orognulim pub lished again with big headllnury and editorial comment such cheerful In-! formation im that the water of tho Willamette and Columbia rivers i wero both well-stocked WITH Ty.l Pimm GEit.MS. Tho Capital Journal recall a stntoiiiout In that same editorial to tho effect that tho Willamette rlvor was little bettor than "an opun bow or." In ti spirit of absolute fairness ami Justice, wo asked tho aforesaid groat and good gunidlnn of the publlo health whether U was not a fact that the good city of Portlnnd got part of It water mipjay from tho Wil lamette?

Malcolm for Collector of Customs nt Portland. That Inforenru s hardly correct. This paper HAS NO FIGHT TO MAKE OX ANY ASPIRANT for any nfflco as such. ' Tho editors of this paper aro Re publicans and they Mo not hesitate to amy thoy bollovo lit upholding tho principles of tho Republican party. Tho country Is prosperous ns nov or before, as a result of uutlonul Re publican policies. Tho working Oro- Kt Republicans help bring that about. To strengthen, tho. hands of tho Republican party, to make It vigor ous and offectha for Its work In tho future, is tho duty of all Republi cans. If Senator Fulton has tho naming of tho Collector of Customs nt Port land, which hi; May possirly AAYlf, ho should nauio n man who can help build up tho party. Of course, ho should bo compe tent and honest. That Is expected Mnd ho dosorvea uo credit for naming that kind of a wan.

Men who spend their time . and their money doing tho hard work of Republican campaigns get some glory but when It comes to handing out a fat federal offlpe It goes to the silk-stocking, do-nothing crlb-mun-cher. o THE OREGON DAILY PRESS. There aro now in tho state twen-ty-ono dally nowspapers, counting thoBO that come out at least six times a week as dallies. It Is Indicative of tho growth of the state that Oregon has more dally newspapers than ever before In tho history of tho state. Tho financial standing and ability of tho writers on these papers is greater than cvor before and Is n credit to tho atato. No no of tho editors of these pa pers havo boon prosecuted for land frauds, and all these dally papers fight for morality and good laws. . Thero is at least one poet of marked literary ability In tho list of dally editors, Rort Huffman, of tho Pendleton East Oregonlan. Thcso Orogon dailies aro all cham pions of dovolopniont and progress, and hnvo dono a great deal of hard solid work to bring about tho chnnged conditions that have over taken Oregon. Six dally papers havo each a mo nopoly of tho town they nro publish ed in; Star, Orogon City; Review, Roseburg; Tribune Mcdford; Obser ver, La Grnndo; Times, Mnrshflold; Chronlclo, Tho Dalles. Six cities havo two dallies each: Albany, Democrat and Horald; As toria, Iludgot nnd Astorlnn; Baker City, Domocrat nnd Herald; Eugene, Gunrd and Rogistor; Pendleton, East Oregonlan nnd Tribune; Snlom, Journal and Stntesman.

That Is whrtho shrewd men back of the Portland Journal want some mild, non-partisan who knows noth ing about practical politics appoint ed for collector of customs at Port land. They are sharp men and suc cessful. X-RAYS Tho state library commission, sending books to tho schools on such subjects as Chinese exclusion, direct legislation and subjects of like weight is much like sending Bawmllls and Quakers to tho Apaches, or giv ing ono a stone who asks for bread.
