" 12-10-w-3t A Correction (Continued from page one ) the printer's office that I dread so much as the- devil. To illus trate: in yesterday's' letter. I said that "this journal," referr ing -to the Oregonian, was guilty of such and such delinquen cies; but, lo and behold, when the paper appeard, it said "The Journal" was thus guilty. Really I did not know before that the devil was a republican. I fcnew that the republican part has much to account for and carries a fearful load at the present time, but did not imagine it was quite so bad as that. ; As to - The: Journal" I have nothing but the best opinion of it. It is an honest, clean, capable pa per, working to the very best of its ability for the public welfare and against the "interests,'? so far as these are unjust; arid for the purification of the Ausrean political stable that it .formed here in Oregon. So please make this correction at once to beat the devil. Another correction called for is where your paper makes me say that the Oregonian's manner are utterly' ' corrupted by its evil associations, when I said onlv that it was ''similarly" corrupted with the republican party with which it. was compared. I by no means believe that either the party or the Oregohian is wholly bad, though I do think both are rapidly getting there. In fact I have admitted the power and sparkle of the latter's editorials, as well as some excellent work that it accomplishes. It has an immense power for good or. evil; and if it would only show some signs of " reform and work" as earnestly forthe interests of the whole people as it does now for the . interests" that prey upon the people I would at once 6end m a year s-yes even for a lif e s-? subscription. But so long as it persists in its present course, my constitution absolutely forbids me to indulge it only in nickle doses. ' ' ' i K r--r: E. M..

He gave the editor the V information; on re quest. The article was not. a knock it was straight goods. The ,'same may be said of other sections, and it will be said when those sections are up for J discus sion. The G-T. wants the North west additions to haye that sew er, and so does Dr. Pernot. Both will' help land that sewer. (Edi torial note.) . " IS FLOSSY The' Albany Herald says Corvallis should spend that $125,000 prize-fight purse for street improvements. Nor mally, that -suggestion would be all right, but if Corvallis finally secures the big fight there is almost a .certainty that $500,000 can "be secured for street purposes. - The' Johnsons of this city; numerous as the sands of the seashore and of no relation except to the dusky champeen, have agreed, in case their favorite relative wins,- to install a Car negie library; erect a new opera house. build that six-story hotel, put a bridge across the Willamette, put in a rival postoffice here, pave the streets, build a street car line and finally paint the town red;. Red isn't exactly bur color, unless it is of the sky-blue-pink variety. but any kind of paint will help, and with the various other needed conveni ences promised, it is worth, while to take a chance." Of course Johnson may not win, for Lafferty is a strong man, but if he can't win in Corvallis he-can't hope to win at Colma or Goldfield. But, come to think about it; Albany is not far enough Out of the woods yet that the Herald pan point the way and crow very .loud. V-Albany , is -doing - well but she is still in swaddling clothes.
