was that those who exacted tin pledge
electioneered against him and drew
enough votes away from him to accom

building of the bridge now, when the

OREGON OITY, NOV. 15. 1901.
jr. scotvob skxator.
Though we may often condemn the
policy of the Oregonian, any fair-minded
person, familiar with the current history
of the state, must admit that its editor-in-chitf,
Ilarvey W. Scott, is one of the
ablest men in the Pacific Northwest
"Some republican pipers,1' stys t e
Times-Mountaineer (democratic), "are
I re at the East Oregonian because it
mentions II. W, Scott as a suitable
candidate for United States senator.
They give no reason, however, why Mr.
Scott should not represent Oregon in
the United States senate, or why the
East Oregonian should not show his fit
ness for lliat position. In fact they can
not produce such argument. With the
large majority of republican holdovers
in the state senate, it is hardlv likely
that the republican majority in the Ore
gon legislature can be overcome1 at the
next election, hence the senator to be
elected mill likely be a republican. In
this event why should not , Mr. 8cott.be"
choice of the party, and why should not
a democratic paper like the East Ore
gonian advocate his election with per
fect sincerity? In ability Harvey Scott is
head and shoulders above either of our
present senators. His entire life has
been spent in Oregon, and he has been
a close observer of the state's' growth
nd well knows its needs. In every way
it is fitted to make an able representa
tive of the state In the nation's legisla
tive halls.
"Mora than this Scott is not a kid
gloved politician one of those pliant
partisans who change views with the
wind to meet the approval of party
bosses. In short, Scott is a man of
brains, firm convictions ai d staid pur
poses. There is nothing superficial
.bout him. In the United States sen
ate he poeaihly might not be sufficiently
pliable to meet the approval of politi
cians, but certain it is he would stand
for what he believed to be ri,ht, and no
tilers of party preference would influx
ence his vote. There are many things
Mr. Scott advocates which we do not ap
prove, but we admire his ability."
The senat.irship to Mr. Scott wo.ild
not he an elevation to a widoi sphere of
influence; it would be a burden placed
on the shoulders of a man who has
earned surcease ol life's toil. But no re
publican could he of greater service to
Oregon in the United States senate
than Mr. Scott.
On October 27th, Bays the Chicago
Record-Herali, "President Roosevelt
put his finger on the' button which
moves most of the wires in the United
senate. Senator Aldrich, of Rhode
Island, is the button. He is the great
est wire-puller in the upper branch of
the American congress. In all matters
pertaining to tariff and finance he is by
long odds the most influential man in
the senate. He is the acknowledged
prince of the politicians of that body.
He has fixed more tariff schedules to
suit interested parties, defeated more
legislationjthat some one of wealth and
power did not want, achieved a greater
success as a managing editor of the dig
nified senate, than any other man in all
its histor-v."

ing, and I am sure be is disheartened
with the way things are going on his
lines."

Tub large foreign element in New
York city did its part toward the puri
fication of local politics by the election
of Seth Low, the fusion candidate, for
mayor. In Philadelphia, on the other
hand, where the foreign element is but
a small fraction of the population, the
malodorous Quay gang was reelected,
given another opportunity to steal mil
lions upon millions. Immigrants
make pretty good American voters.

candidate, as mayor cf San Francisco,

worked together to some extent, is a vic

the history of politics in this country.

Is one of the curious expressions used
for worked out. Many a woman drops
into a chair, in utter weariness "all

why she feels so weak. She

The question of the relation of sun
spots to the weather is receiving consid
erable attention in view of the fact that
we are now believed to be at the begin
ning of a new maximum sun-spot
period. The observations of Prof. E.
Bruckner indicate that there is a periodi
cal variation in the climates over the
whole earth, the mean length of the
pprioa Deing snout tmrty-hve years.
Mr. W, J. S. Lockyer believes it has
been demonstrated that there is a varia
tion in the intensity of sun spot phe
nomena also having a mean length of
about thirty-five years. The spot maxl
mum, whose beginning is now at hand,
will, according to Mr. Lockyer, resem
ble that which culminated in 1370, and
which was remarkable for its intensity.

On Wednesday, November 13th, be
gan at Lewiston, Me., the 35th annual
session nf the national grange. The
Pine Tree State has a grange member
ship of 30,000. The order has grown re
markably throughout the union during
the past 12 months. The national
grange will do all in its power to secure
national legislation not injurious to the
farmers. Petitions in favor of the Grout
butter bill and against the ship subsidy
bill, bearing many hundreds of thous
cuds of names, will be placed by the
national grange before congress.
Socialism is, by its very nature, op
posed to war, pillage, lawlessness, brute
force, falsehood, and violence. It hero
and there soma dull-witted socialist,
made huIIuu by poverty and pain, cries
out for vengeance, his violence is no
more to hu attributed to socialism than
the savage cruelty of a Torqnemada is
to bo imputed to Catholicism. Social
ism does not begot atheism any more
than chemistry begets infidelity. So
cialism is tin economic science, not a re
ligious creed. Wo must look elsewhere
tor the causes of atheism than in social
ism. The so-culled lather of the demo
cratic 'party. Thomas Jefferson, was an
infidel; and Robert Ingersnll, the agnos
tic, was a lending lepublican in his day.
The early fUhers of the church were, as
a rule, socialists, and they showed no
tendencies toward atheism father

Is his address at New Haven, Conn.,
Justice Brewer of the U. S. supreme
tjui't, asked', "Is thi centralization
tendency of the trusts antagonistic or
healthful to the republic? Is it consist
nt with popular government?" Then
the justice answered himself: "Appar
ently it is antagonistic; against republi
can thought of equality of right, each
man a ruler and equally sharing the re
sponsibilities and powers ot govern
ment." Justice Brewer's remedy is, as
he stated it : "Appeal must be taken to
the preat court of public opinion whose
electees are irresistible. In that court
each man is counsel and each man is
judge. The court may not stay the
movement, but will control i. It can
make tho movement with all the won
del ful things attending it subserve the
highir thought, ennobling the individ-ml."
Discussing the Iquesiioti of the best
varieties of wheat.for cultivation in dif
feront parts of this country, Mr. Carlton,
of the U. S department of agriculture,
who has made a special study of the
subject, says : "Considering all qualities,
the best wheats in the world are of Rus
sian origin, coming particularly from
Eastern and Southern Russia." TheBe
varieties, he udds, resist cold and
drought, nre more or less resistant to
leaf rust and have the bast quality of
grain.
A petition asking that Cuba be an
