MR. SCOTT'S DEATH
The dea'h of the editor of the
Oregronian will be felt as a
personal loss to all his readers.
He was so large, mea tally, that
when one spoke of theOregonian
Mr. Scott was always in the
mind. His work made the paper
the great force it has been in the
State. No doubt his associate
contributed all that was possible
as a business masager, but others
might have done the same, while
Mr. Scott's genius could not have
been duplicated. One thing that
contributed to his success was
his perfect freedom from re
straint. I'or good or evil, right or
wrong, he wrote his thoughts,
ad drewed them in language so
plain and pure that none could
misunderstand. His career was
wonderful. In a small community,
in a State remote from the great
thought centers, against all ad
verso circumstances, he made a
name second to that of none in
his profession and obtained rec
ognition from all the great
journalists of the country. He
was part of the State he loved,
and its citizens, whether his op
ponents or his allies, will always
1 i A - - A.
rem?mDer mm as tne greaiesi
Oregonian of his day.
WANTS INFORMATION
The following letter from Mr.
Cordes, of Deer Island, is the
kind that every newspaper man
should like to receive.
Deer Islhnd, Aug. 9, 1910.
E. H. Flagg
Dear Sir: You would do
me and many others a great
favor if you would let us know
the history of the candidates for
office, if Assembly or Statement
No. 1 candidates, in your paper.
We do not care for party lines.
Republicans or Democrats. We
want honest men with backbone.
I hope you will tell U3 the
truth.
CHAS. CORDES
Mr. Cordes shall have all the
information we can give him,
and especially in regard to the
position taken by candidates on
Statement No. 1. And it is right
on this point that many a good
citizen is going to make his de
cision as to who to vote for.
The expression "we do not
care for party lines" comes far
from meeting our approval, but,
in local matters, very nearly ex
presses the stand to be taken bv
hosts of voters. The man who
votes for Republican Presidents
and. Congressmen all his life very
often fails to pay any attention
to the matter of political pulia
tion when having his say as to
who shall be the next County
Judge or Assessor.
We'll try io t':ll the truth. It
will ivrttlnly be as we see it.
At some time in the near f u-j
ture we will also devote space toj
a resume of the Initiative and j
Referendum measures which!
will appear on the ballot in No- j
vember.
PHILLIP SOBER
(Orriro. Ian. Jan. li.C)
"The virtually unanimous ratifi
cations by the popular choice of
Mr. Mulkey and Mr. Bourne for
the United States senators marks
an epoch in the political history
of Oregon. It is not likely that
the precedent thus firmly es
tablished will be broken hereafter.
The time of the legislature will
henceforth be devoted to the
business of the state; its only
concern with the election of sen
ators will be to fulfil the constitu
tional form by ratification of an
antecedent popular choice."
Again theOregonian said: 'This
achievement is of fundamental
importance and the people of
Oregon are willing to believe
that in accomplishing it they
have received loyal and substan
tial support from Mr. Jonathan
Bourne. His ambition to become a
United States Senator is of long
standing. He has finally attained
it by encouraging and assisting
the people of Oregon to break
up the political rings which have
dominated the state, not always
to its advantage, and to take both
political power and much of the
machineryof government directly
under their own control. Mr.
Bourne has succeeded in "making
the people of Oregon believe that
he Is the unwavering friend of
the direct primary, the ref
erendum and the popular election
of senators. It was because of
this widely accredited devotion
to a great principle that Mr.
Bourne received his larfremajority
of the popular vote last June."
Again, in its excellent article
the Oragonian said: "Seldom has
a body of public men given a
finer demoastration of loyalty to
American principle than the Ore
gon legislature gave in ratifying
promptly and decisively the
popular election of Senators Mul
key and Bourne. By doing this
they have acknowledged the run-
damental truth upon which our
institutions rest, namely, that all
power resides ultimately in the
people, and whenever the people
choose to exercise this power di
rectly it is their right to do so."
Concluding its ratification ot
Mr. Bourne and Statement No. 1.
the Oregonian said: "Our legis
lators have also acknowledged
with noble fidelity to fact and
reason that, high as their duties
may be, they are but the servants
or agents of the people, and that
the popular mandates expressed
under the form9 of law are of
binding obligation upon all public
officials. We may therefore say
without undue insistence upon its
importance that the ratification
by the Oregon legislature ot the
popular choice ot our senators
marks an epoch in the develop
ment of free institutions."
Phillip was sober in those days,
now that he is drunk he raves
against his better self.'

people in town the walks will be
just about blocked up. Ladies ob
