Stonfleld which of Into liavo had promlnonco In the llolso Statesman aro bitter pills for Orogonlaus. Of course It Is only lu Mainour and Harney Counties that Orogonlans aro nwuro of tho stato mouts which aro bolng directed at tho Junior Senator, still thoy aro bound to purcolato back to Washington and Imvo tholr effect there. Just what to expect personally from n man lu tho position of a United Btatos senator 1b a question. This Is especially truo'of ono who Is In tho sheep and cattlo gnmo, and has boon In It during tho past flva yoars. Tho pooplo havo a right to expect that a public servant bo ho a county official or a Unltod States sountor, will pay his bills. To do less Is a reflection upon IiIb character, yet It en n bo bald of overy stockman, nearly, that ho Is having a Btrugglo to got oven with tho gamo and mako up ins loses of tuo past row years. Without apologizing for tho fact that Dob Stauftold, apparently, has not paid all his bills, yot It Is not a questionable practice when nnothor publo official like Miles Cnnnon In a neighboring atnto takos to giving publicity to Dob'o dorollctlou In this respoct. Uooduoss knows, Mr. Cannon and his Idaho farmors aro not nlono lu tholr worry over bllla that Hob has boon struggling with during tho past yoar. Neither ought ho or thoy la inont that ho has been ablo to buy up all tho sheep In sight, with funds advanced by various Interests, for It Is through tho profits which ho anticipates from those purchases that Dob oxpocta to pay his back bill and got soma of tho many outfits ho ran lu days guno by back on their foot again. In his efforts to got his affairs In shapo tho Junior Sountor has spout a largo portion of tho time since ho took offlco, In Wolsor nml other Idaho cltlos and towns looking nftor his Intorosta thero. Ho evon cut his Oregon offices and moved all his and Mr. Updlko'd activities to Wolsor to roduco oxnsnsos nnd thus furnish moans for paying thoso bills. Tho Idaho folks could hardly ask more. Thoy wanted him over thuro, unci they havo him, nnd according to Mr. Cntyion, n fow accounts payable. Sonator Charles Hall of Marshflold, to be tho victim of tholr unAmorlcnii practice No mattor how noblo may bo tho Intention of tho members of theso soclotlos, nnd somo of thorn undoubtedly aro high mludod, yet thoy havo taken tho wrong way to socuro tho ends thoy soek. What these onds aro no ono not a niombor can know. No ono knows who or what thoy aro. Thoy do not coino Into tho open, Thoy aro self select ed and self govornlug. Thoy havo no business attomptlng to dlctato to tho people of Oregon who Bhall bo tho candidates for offlco. Tho ArVns has long admired Sen ator Hall, and bellovcs him a cap able mnn, but so long as ho runs as tho candldnto of a secret Junta wo cannot bollovo that ho Is entitled to tho consideration which he ns an In dividual might bo entitled to. roozh and drugs rrultlnnd Is getting Into tho llmo llght of lato, with Us youthful booze parties, and now with a man In whoso possession drugs are found, It Is a bud combination for a small town, but llko n small town it cannot koop Its Iniquities hid.
