An electric sign, four or five feet high, flased from what was once a solemn old colonial roof, displaying the num bers 720, 409, and so on. These were cab numbers, the same as you see when the crowds leave the theatres. They were yelled along in all direc tions until they were lost in the din and confusion "after the show." Modorn invention is good where would we be without it? but some how this robbed the boaiJtiful old residence of the dignity it should have, and placed it on a level with the music halls. Reaching out from both sides of the White House are two tunnol connecting the main OREGON 01TY, JUNES, 1903. Clackamas county is Deomcratic by 250 plurality. Ye Gods who would .liave believed it. Less than ..2500 votes were cast in Clackamas county on last Monday out of a possible',5000. Oregon City goes Democratic by over fifty. "Verily, verily I say unto shaped wings, you, the day of miracles is not yet passed. ' ' In the election of Hermann to Con. gross the Republicans in this district are heartily ashamed of tliemsolves. It is a victory ,of which they are not eut gtylo from tho white Houg0 itsolf prouu. Bat worse still is tho mutilation that ,It is over and ended It is bad ' las ,beeu done Jnsido' the house.

Clackamas county in the years "gono by has earned an uneuviahlo reputa tion. Thu county has had tho largest Republican majority in tho state and the highest tax rate. Now in as much as the county lias gono Domo cartic possibly we can cut tho rate in half. Good things have an affinity for one another. Bad deods and cor rupt things'travol in a bunch. Presidents. Seated at the table, he can point with - prid tojthe trophies of his prowess and describe eloquently the "death struggles of the various animals. If Mr Roosevelt cannot enjoy his meals except in the presenceofjthe staffed remains of his1 victims it would have been better to decorate his private dining room with them, in stead of bringing such horrors into the state dining room. As it is, the room where Mr. McKinley 'presided over peaceful and dignified state dinners is now ; the favorite haunt of a man who acts" like the spieler of a modorn sportsmen's show. Are these changes right? Should a President pull and hatil and disfigure, to say nothing of disposicg of that which does not belong to him? Lincoln did.notjliave himselfjpainted freeing the slaves ; Jackson never posed for his portrait in thei act of defeating Pakenham at New .Orleans j nor did Grant ever insist upon being pictured at Appomattox. Even Cleve land never hung the walls of the White House with stuffed ducks. But here comes a President who has turned the once dignified White House into a Roosevelt cozy corne, forcing those who come to view the scenes where our greatest men have lived " and worked to be met with scenes of wan ton slaughter and the rarest example of egotism ever inflicted upon a suffering people. Now, under the guise of exorcise, he has obtained permission to ride out on one of the old roadways, and while Senator Lodge wields the camera, he, the President, finds delight in chopping great old oaks to the ground with apparently as little concern as though ho wore a beaver. If this is to continue what will our children come to Washington for in later years? Just to see where Mr. Roosevelt destroyed this or that? Or to see whore the old landmarks used to be? Why not indulge your tastes to the full, Mr. Roosovelt? Lot your person ality have full sway. 'Just in front of tho.
