OREGON OITY, MARCH 3, t899.
. Thb annual meeting of the Oregon
Dairymen's Association will be held in
Portland on FViday and Saturday,
March 10 and 11. 1899.
The governor will have about a hun
dred new officers to appoint under the
acts of the recent legislature, the graf
ters of the last year of the nineteenth
century.
Thb Ooueieb-Herald would be
pleased to receive more letters for pub
lication from reformers . We are always
glad to do anything to help the cause of
the down. trodden.
Miles tells the truth and will suffer
discharge from the army.
- Egan lied about the embalmed beef
and got a six years' vacation under full
'pay. ,
Funny how much Americans will
etand.
The only legislature Oregon has had
within recent years that has not done
injury to the state was the one of 1897,
that did'nt organize. No bill passes the
legislative assembly on its own merits.
Every bi.l tht passes is traded and
jobbed, on the all round graft. Ore
gonian. The headlines over a Washington
telegram in the daily papers recently
read: "President McKinley Tired."
He may be tired, but not any more so
than the people are tired of him ; and
when his present term of office expires
they give him all the balance of his life
to rest up and will elect a man to suc
ceed him as president. Tacoma Sun.
The people who voted the demo-pop
ticket lust fall has the indisputable right
to carry his head about this time. And
he 'will have the company of lots of de
cent republicans next time, Search
light, Redding, Oal.
The people of Oregon are 'in the same
fix. We've been blessed with a legisla
tive Bession too, and you need'nt feel so
proud.
.... It is only necessary to go back a few
ahoit yesrt and dig up the records in
order to prove that bimetallism is not a
now issue, but that it was very popular
with the people of all parties and that
most of the big papers were for free
coinage of silver until the bosses of the
g . o. p. and the stuffed prophet and
bacchlian brute of Buzzard's Bay sold
out the .people to the bond-hawks of
"Wall street. Why, even thut, at pres
ent, frog-eating sheet, the Chicago Trio-'
une, in 1878, speaking on the silver
question, ' said : "A laboring man
would inilnitely prefer to be set at work
earning a Bilver dollar than starve while
waiting for employment on a gold
basis." And this is the same condition
tlVat exists to-day, but the Tribune is
singing another sone. ' -

mas did not take printing, board of
prisoners and other perqusites from the
Marion county sheriff as well as from
liim. lli-fore the recent session the
Marion cuiinty Bheriff received a salary
of $1400 and for boarding prisoners the
sum of f!) for first and 3 for others.
He now receives $4,000 salary and same
for prisoners besides other fees. The
. salary of the Clackamas county Bheriff
k was cut from $2000 to $1700 and board
)f prisoners, printing and other per
quisites taken from him entirely. The
Marion jail contained seven prisoners
when the law was passed and Clacka
mas none. Sheriff Cooke before re
ceived only $11 for all prisoners if he had
more tnan four.

White Man's Burden.
It, is hard to belleru that the management of
the Oregoniiin has been Ignorant all these years
of what all ariwlblu people knew would be the
inevitable effect of the naleralistlc policy, which
republicans have exeroised toward monopolies
and trusts. Everybody who has read the Ore
goiilan during the last twenty years knows that
it has been the loyal champion of the party,
which has fostered monopolies by legislature
euaotmeula, thus laying the foundation for the
modern trust. It comes of very bad grace for
the dully to howl about the unjust exactions of
i ho paper trust 111- first to reach the Oregonlan
ovttraairect.;itue. Th ro is agruat deal of inquiry
as to H hat shall we do with the trust. There is a
gigantic trust now In process ot fi.riation
known as the bankers trusts, and if the proper
legislation can be secured it witl not be a ques
tion ol what the people will do with the trust,
but rather what will tie irusta do with the people.
'I he following parody to Kiplings "The White
Man's Burden," we dedicate to the ' only" papei :
Take up the white man's burden
And paralyze the trust
That sets the price on paper
Tu use the stuff we musk
Take up the white man's burden.
Just dip your pen In tire
And swear by all that's holy
That lite tariff shall go no higher. ' '
Take up the white man's burden
Swing high the battle tix
And let a wailing public know ,.
The loiulguer pays the tax, '
Take up the white man's burden
Alas 'lis bitter cup
The only legislature In recent years
Was the one the pops held up.
Take up the white man's burden
And let the people know
That trust are very odious things
To Senator Pinion Joe.
Take up the while man's burden
(Irasp llnnly that trenchant pen
And warlilo the evil deeds performed
k Dy many dishonest men.
Take up the white man's burden
Aud 1 t the people hear
That the Wchfnol anions completely Ignored
The advice ot Uovjrnor tieor.
Take up the white man's burdens
And play lite protective role,
Till (he Oregou Improvement Company
8ecir)es a trust on coal.
Take up the white man's burden
And state how bad you are shocked
When after the horse Is sioleu
You know the barn door's locked.
Take up the white man's burden
And score litem fore and aft
Those chosen ones of t he people
Who were tangled up In the graft
Take up the while man's burdens
And show ihe many Haws
V hich some believe w ll be the rule.
