('hamherluiu to be United Htates scuator certainly proves that the peo . pie have chosen more wittely than any ( legislature would have. No man in Oregon has the qualifications for the " office that the governor has, and none s would make as good a senator, If tlio seleetiou hud been left to the legislature, a long deadlock- would have been the program a content between moneybags fur the toga and some man whose ability consists only hi piling up j foin would have been successful through bribery and corruption. ;i There is no danger of Statement No. 1 legislators violating their pledges. When a man has openly promised and is on record in writing, nud owes his : election to his pledge, be Is not going t' to defy public opinion, face political ; ruin, social disgrace and play tlie traitor by selling out, not if he intends to con ; tin ue to live among tliono who elected him, It wouldn't be wine to try it, for ; there would bo something doing on hi h return. J And why shouldn't the people have as great a right to elect a democrat ft mnutm In a riniiltliiiiti Htntn ah t hev Lave to elect a democrat governor? ji What is the party name nowaduys but a convenient niantlo for office seekers? R What is a republican and what in a y democrat! Are Roosevelt and Lnfollcttc republicans or are Atdih-h and Piatt F v Are Bryuu and Folk democrnts or are i r Kyan and ParkerT 5 Partisans havo been erving "wolf too often in Oregon. A democrat litis been governor, and the idato still pros j pered. A democrat will bo elected sen f ator, because he can "deliver tin - goods." Oregonians have learned there , is nothing in the party cry nowaday" ; except graft for the politicians, nnd , the business corrupttonists hekind them, j WHAT THE PEOPLE THOUGHT, A few duys ago Kditor JUiton of the Medford Mail compliineuted Hherift fucluuu upou his "meritorious" op tion lu having caused tho arrest unci imprisonment of Uoorgt J'utnum at Ruseburg lust December ou an indict ment for. libel preferred by tbo grand jury. Mr. Putnam was taken from a Pullman bert li at midnight, white en route to Portland to spend tho hnlidiiys, denied permission to telegruph or tele phone or otherwise until' y friends of his predicament, refused information regarding the crime for which he win charged, and locked up until noon the 'j next day in jail. I Libel is a petty oft'euse; bail had been fixed at $800, yet had the crime been a capital one the treatment of the prisoner could not have been other wise. t The arrest was made the way it wns to unnecessarily humiliate the editor V of The Tribune and gratify the pettx , spite of the Jackson county nhoriff, and the courthouse officials, who hurl lntn criticised in the newspaper's columns. In carrying out the conspiracy, the Pong las county sheriff's office "stood In" with the Jackson con til y ol ficinla. The man who made tho artvat and refused all courtesies to the prixonci was Deputy Sheriff Harry C. Hlnruui Mr. 81 oo u ni afterwards received the republican nomination for sheriff. Dor lug the campaign tho Putnnm arrest ok ' an Instance of abuse of official powei f was freely used against Mr.Stocum h his opponent. The election Monday told what the i people of both Pnuglus and Jm-ksou counties thought of this arrest, when ' they closed the incident by defeating both Mr, Sloeum and Mr. Jackson nnd I elected democrats by big majorities in , their places in counties overwhelmingly republican. The people love fair play, sad wilt not tolerate abuse of official power to gratify personal spleen. LOS ANOBLES MERCHANT HE IB TO TEN MILLIONS LU8 ANflKLKH, Cal June 4. C, W.

"N'o investment equals those in this vnllev," said Mr. Hweeney, "not even Standard Oil, which pays 4ii per cent, .vhile your orhenrds frequently pay sev eral hundred per cent. Why you can pay $rno an acre, mid clear 1I0 per cent a year. ' There is an old orchard on the Itroud bent place t hat Mr. Hweeney bought 'hat is 10 years old and has never failed to produce a large crop of excellent up pics and Hurl lett pears.

PREACHERS Q RILLED AS O ALARY QUACKS BY SUNDAY IMTTNBFltO, Pa., June 4. Rev. Billy" Sunday, the evangelist, deliv ered an address here Tuesdav. His words caused consternation among the preachers, some of whom left, the First Presbyterian church with their dignity i sung, but most of the preachers re mnincd. Mr. Sunday, who is a for mer professional baseball player, has hecn conducting a revival at Sharon, near here, ami came to Pittsburg to -.peak ou "Why Some Preachers Fail in Their Missions." The daring evangelist said many m in islers of the present day were "fudge eating mollycoddles, who were cent in ually springing bull con upon their innocent congregat ions, " lie assert ed that "mighty few ministers of today ant anything but stiffs, salary quacks, loafers, willing to accept social dis rinetinn above all things.' and that many nf them are iptalificd for the "funny house," meaning the "cra.v house. ' ' Continuing, tr. Sunday aid; "Some of you alleged ministers of Ood are coal rolled by sordid l it lies, nnd not by the -.pirit of Jehus Christ. Many of vou are dirty grafters, pure and simple. Von know this is true. too. Yon daren't deny it. Some of you are preaching today that ought to be carrving the hod. "We don't want to tear down the seminaries, but we do want to stand their 'professors' on their heads in mud puddles. These fellows are absolutely no more use than a crane's tegs are to devout setting hen. ' 1 No, I am not an osteopathic sur genu, and my line is to cut out the 1 1 M-esv in the side of the rotten church." Some of tho preachers were pleased, the majority were dumfounded. CRITICAL CONDITION OF AFFAIRS IN PANAMA WASHINGTON. June 4. Publica tion of the Pnited Press dispatch telling of the critical condition of affairs in the republic of Fanatim aroused great interest here and it wns announced to lay that 200 additional marines have been ordered sent .to the isthmus at once with orders to protect and help keep order at the election. It is also planned to detail on the isthmus a large body of sailors being transferred to and from the Atlantic i fleet if condition do not Imnrnrfl be. I fore tlie election. I Almost the entire time of the cabinet ' meeting yestenlav was devoted to dis- ussion nf the Panama situation. The possihle necessity of the T'nited States! inking control of the country. It is un ' derstood. whs talked over at length I PLENTY OF POWER IN I MOUNTAINS OF OREOON In no other state in the I'uiou can so (much electric energy be produced at little cot as in Oregon. ine mount uni streums that riutb down the sides of the Cascades aud are bar- j uessed and the power generated is transmitted by Wires to all parts of the state. It lights all our cities and towns, turns the wheels in the factories, pulls heavy trains over all kinds of grades and is tho motive power for all street car lines. It absolutely costs nothing, fur the water after being used for generating power goes humming down into the valley, undiminished in quantity and quality, and it used for irrigation. The days of the use of the steam engine are over in nearly all branches of manufacture. In many sections of the great valley of Rogue and Willam ette the present dry season has caused the furmer to look for some means of irrigation. In all parts of the valley an inexhaustible supply of water is found by digging or boring wells a few feet in depth. The putting in of a eontrifugal pump nnd the application of eli-etrie energy and the difficulty is solved. The quantity of water depends solely upon the size of the pump used and it can be kept running day and night without any attention being paid to it. The farmer lights his house, bams and outhouses with electricity; it runs the chopper to cut the feed for his ent ile, manipulates the cheese to make his butter and rocks the cradle in which sleeps the pride of the family, while the wife and mother prepares the frugal meal upon an electric stove.
