The transition from hlsck to hi m la only a (juration ol time." THE SOCIALIST ORATOR Mr. 11114'a itw hall was oieucd last H,im BUim.iy evenm,. Mr. Lewis, Uie social- .00 1st orator who Hits made several speeches in Columbia County, bulng the soeukrr ot Uie occasion. There was unite a Urge attendance and the speaker seemed to have the sympathy ot hi audience. He scored both the old parties and pre sented a picture of the conditions ex isting "tinder the present system" thai is really deplorable if true. He claimed there are O.OlXUXW hobos in the United States at the present time and tint one out of every four of children liortt to working ptHiple die from lack of food or lack ol cloth! tig and that whoever votes either the Republican or the iHutioeratlc ticket votes for the murder ol these I11-lea-eiita. ,s the entire death rate in Columbia county is only about live to the thousand we suppose his statistics do not apply here, and when ho states that the people are In worse condition now than they ever were in the hiatory Ol the world we believe, to put It mildly, that he is mistaken. He told a story of seeing a patent shovel near Medford tlml did the work of !kX) men and only re quired four men to operate It, thus dis placing, according to his theory, '.".si men., ere the men at work when the steam shovel came? No, nor would they have been. That shovel was pre paring 1 ho Wly to put hundreds and probably thousands to work in Southern Oregon, Just as the logging camps if to day, with their improved machinery. have put thousands to work In Western Oregon ami Washington whom it would have been Impossible to employ under the old system. Just as the type setting machines, which temporarily displaced 1 a few hand compositors, eventually made . work for many more at nearly doo'ole n,,r reunite, forefathers lived III tl" stomi age. Ours Is lliu cement H There have been the Intermediate K' of Iron. ei! 'tier, and Ms some say, the Borden aire -an lmiiliiry age "hen things were letter tlmil they ever hiv liceit or eve. will lie. Fifteen yeaia ago only IM.tHM hair.la of Portland cement arte used In this country. I.l ''r more than lifty two millions ol luttu'ls were use, I.

It would certainly com pel hi ai to employ more men to secure Those who hare read the Eastern magaiitiee snd papers daring the pro gress of the canipaigu just closed must have noticed that throughout the country the State and local campaigns have been fought upon entirely different issues from the national campaign. In tba "good old days" before the primsry law Was passed in so many States It wss soffideot for a candidate for State office to boast about bis loyalty to the party and to denounce hi political opponents for the attempts to break down the liberties of the people by daring to entertain heretical views upon the tariff question. No doubt party allegiance ts still strong, as it shoal J be, but you can no longer make a member of either party believe it to be his duty to tote for a notoriously corrupt or incompetent man for fear of party disaster. The voter knows that the justice ol the peace for Mllpitas has very little to do with framing up legislation in the National Congress, but be has Consider able to say about maintaining law and order in his neighborhood, and so It la all along the line. Tne day of the yel low dog lo politics is over, or st hast 'us palmiest days are past. A nomina tion does not necessarily mean an elec tion, either in Missouri or Oregon . The people must be shown. They want something more substantial than hot sir and flubdub.
