The machinery of the present Admin istration is being exerted in an un precedented manner in his interest Recipients of federal positions must be in line the Senator or Congress man who presses the claim of an ap - plicant for an appointment has no hearing unless the claimant and also his friendly representative are willing and prepared to take program. The exalted position of Chief Executive of a great nation has perhaps never be fore been made a factor in ward poli tics. With millions at its disposal in the way of patronage and an evident willingness to use all means at its command, there Is little reason why the present Administration should not be able to at least name the man who is to be the figure-head in the coming Administration provided the party at present in power should continue its domination. But it is a more doubtful proposition If the power that can dominate a Re publican convention can also control the vote of the electors. While the chiefs of the Republican party may consent to an administration mad leader, they will certainly have a hard time lining up the rank and file of the party for the purpose of taking the "dope" already mixed for it. Some of the Inquisitive will want to know what Taft has ever done of bis own initiative. If he has ever held a pub lic position that came in any other manner than by appointment. If he has ever done anything or 3aid any- thing that thd people might judge what there is to him. Yet it must be conceded that the Administration ma chinery may be so well organized that each administration will hereafter name Its own successor. We will know soon whether the candidate for the Presidency is to be selected in Washington or whether the National convention is to have a voice in the matter. There is also one condition that might make W. H. Taft President conceding him the Republican nomina tion. Under ordinary circumstances the people would not consent to the President s naming his successor in office. They would express their disap proval at the polls and "safe" States would get out of line. But an American-Japanese war at an opportune time might make the election of W. H Taft possible. Very threatening war clouds might even make it possible. For in war times people hesitate to make changes in management. But to be elected even after nomination, the fat Secretary of War will have to strike this characteristic chord of the American people, There must be war in progress or immediately threaten ing. All considered, there Is little probability that Mr. Taft, who is public life has been but an underling, always subservient to a higher power's beck and call, will become the pliant exec utive of a people that demand nerve and stamina in the man at the head of the Nation. and self-respect to avoid the penalty. As a general proposition we wish to weigh our fellow man fairly. It is worth while to turn the eye of Intro- sDection on ourselves occasionally an these occurrences within our actual experiences show us how inequitably we often Judge others. When we con sider it all, we feel a half inclination to admire the man who declined to shift to others the physical suffering and humiliation that the law declared to be the penalty for his offense. LABOR UNION DECISION. HENRY MELDRUM. Very 'many people draw a peculiar line between vice and virtue, between crime and respectability. Vlsclous hab its are not recognized as such so long as the offending parties hold their heads high, spend money lavishly, live in fashionable hotels and dress in Par isian fashion. It is the lmmorallst of the Bowery, of the deml-world that calls down the wrath of the police Judge, Though one Is not In the least bettor than the other, the one has ad mittance to the fashionable home and Is splendidly entertained by the hostess who gathers hor skirts close to her when buo passes the other on the street. Such is the Inconsistency of humanity. Tho criminal Is not the one who breaks the law of God and man he is the one who gets caught at it. Not only this, ho must be confined behind prison bars. The enormity of the offense often lies in getting into prison. The rascal who can by some chance keep out may still "travel" In polite society. This being the way of tho world Henry Meldrum neod hardly expect a . Just verdict from those among whom he has lived a lifetime. Yet history will scarcely attempt to chronicle de tails of the offense for which he was deprived of his liberty. Ho undoubt edly committed a tochnlcnl infraction of the law. He attempted nothing aud did nothing of personal benefit to him self, but broke the letter and not the spirit of the law. Meldrum refused to purchase Immunity by lending his ai to the prosecution In an attempt to fasten criminal charges on those high er up In public life thnn he. He stood his trial and "took his medicine." Which shall claim the higher regard of his follow man, Henry Meldrum or the moral cowards like Puter, Zachary, Hendricks, Stolwer and a score of oth era who saved themselves by turning against their accomplices in crime? This Is not excusing Meldrum. He has erred and has paid an extreme pen alty. Others committed crime for per sonal gain and then surrendered pride Labor lost a long-drawn-out fight in a decision of the Supreme Court this week. It was a case that dates clear back to the Chicago railroad troubles of 1898. The case was that of William Adair, master mechanic of the Louis ville & Nashville road, who had threat ened to discharge an engineer because he belonged to a labor union. This was in contravention of the Erdmann act, that prohibited railroads engaged in interstate commerce from dlscnarg ing employess becauset hey belonged to labor unions. The Supreme Court holds that the law is unconstitutional Justice Harlan delivered the opinion and said that so long as there was no contract and no time limit set to the employment of the man, Congress had no more right to pass a law preventing his discharge than it had to pass a law preventing him from quitting his em ployment. It was a rule, the court said, that would have to work both ways.. If there is a contract between the employer and the employee, it must be respected by both of them But when there Is no contract, there is nothing to prevent the employee from quitting if he wishes and similarly there la nothing to prevent the railroad from discharging him without giving any reason for the act Justice Har lan said If the right of Congress to pass such a law were allowed, there would be nothing to prevent Congress passing a law making it a crime for the railroads to employ any but union men, and this would be absurd on the race of it. justices AicK.enna ana Holmes dissented from this opinion Justice McKenna saying that the de cision of the court was along very narrow lines. Justice Holmes said that the right to make contracts had been stretched to the limit by the de cision and intimated that Congress had the right to legislate so as to encour age the formation of labor unions. BRYAN'8 HOLD ON THE PEOPLE. Mr. Bryan delivered an address at Birmingham, Alabama, not long ago, his subject being "The Signs of the Times," of which the Birmingham ge-Herald says: "His address was a model of gooJ rhetoric and good Ennglish. Every vord went to its place with proper weight and emphasis. There was no redundancy, no inadequacy of expres sion. It was acceptable to all, regard less of their political views or their notions of society. He declared him self an optimist, because all the na tions are striving to secure intellec tual development, political betterment and the growth of moral truth. . No matter what the result of the No vember election may be, William Jen- nines Bryan can not be robbed of his personal following, a following larger than Henry Clay or James G. Blaine ever had, a popular following that In taylng qualities at any rate has never been equalled in this country. That personal Influence will endure what ever the ballots say In November sim ply because the plain people of this country have the fullest confidence in Mr. Bryan's courage, capacity and sincerity." That Bryan has a larger personal following of people who- believe In him as an Ideal man than Clay or Blame, Is, If true a remarkable fact, for aside from two terms in Congress he never held any public office. Nor is he a mere frothy spouter of words. As the Age-Herald remarks, he uses good English, he knows what words mean he uses them to express ideas 01 in rest and importance, and his speech always bIiows that he has thought, and not superficially, along right lines, Like Clay and Blalno, Bryan may never become President, but, though vastly Inferior to them as a politician, ho is as much superior to them In hon est, straightforward sincerity of speech and purpose, and has undoubtedly the greatest "personal following" of any American today, perhaps excepting Roosevelt Oregon Dally Journal. been here. If It can be said ten years from now that this paper was a factor in bringing about better conditions in local government, this alone would be sufficient compensation for a contin ued effort toward the goal.

THE HINDUS AS CITIZENS. THE OFF YEAR. Allow Former Ambassador Choate de mands insistently to know who are the "malefactors of great wealth." Without going too much into particu lars, it may be said that they are the ones with wealth enough to keep out of jail.

Portland business men have deter mined to make a united and most en thusiastic effort to secure from the Transcontinental Passenger Associa tion a special rate through to Port land and other points in the Pacific Northwest for delegates and others who will attend the National Demo cratic Convention, to be held In tho metropolis of Colorado next July. This was tho topic of a meeting held at tho parlors of the Portland Commercial Club, Friday night, and letters were forwarded Saturday to the meeting of the passenger agents now In session at Coronado Beach, California. The round-trip rates that, will be in vogue from Portland and other Oregon polntB to Denver will make It easy to organ Ize a party of representative business men from all parts of the State and send them on a special train to Den vcr, where an extraordinary effort will be made to convince the dolegutos In attendance upon the convention of the special attractions of the Oregon ell mate during the hot season. TO BE PLAIN. A newspaper cannot please all. Its attitude on some questions Is Biire to be distasteful to a portion of its read ers. This follows the fact that there Is such a thing as difference of opin ion, without which, it Is commonly re marked, thoro would bo no horse races. The Courier Is not much of a trlm uer. Consequently it frequently re ceives a letter, evidently written in the heat of pasRlon, to discontinue a subscription an explanation of the cause of the writer's Ire Is often at tached. Now that political subjects are going to be the topic of conversa tion among many, and as these sub jects often provoke heated controversy, there will undoubtedly be resentment by some, of the position the Courier will asume toward public questions or public men. The paper will be hon est with its readers, however, even though we may disagree. As hereto fore, it will Btand for square public officials and policies of local.

SteDhen Carter was a close friend of Lincoln in the days when that im mortal American was just entering his public career. Among the stor ies he often related of "Uncle Abe's" early life was that of the candidate for a county office securing Lincoln's support for his election. Lincoln, he said, never entered politics he was always in. From his very young man hood, whether the contest was ior tne highest office in the state or for di rector of the district school, this po litical genius had his preference and took an active Interest in the game. The candidate in question wanted to be nominated County Assessor. Lincoln told him that he was inclined to favor his rival and gave as a reason the fact that this claimant was then serving his second term in the office and that it was good enough to be passed around. "Well, then," said the persistent candidate, "I'll tell you a story." This line of attack baffled Lincoln, for even at that time if a story was to be told it was generally conceded to be Abe Lincoln's exclusive right to tell it. t'Go ahead," he said; an dthe candidate related the story that fifty years ago was an old one. "A conductor on a New York railway train," he said, "came under suspicion of the management. Conductors' sal aries In those times were small and thnnirh this man had entered the ser vice of the company a few years be fore a Door man he was reporteu to have accumulated considerable wealth. The superintendent of the passenger department went down to the town that was then a division station and the place of residence of the conduct- or. He learned, on inquiry, mm mo handsomest home In the city beiongeu to the conductor; that the finest car riage and equipment that passed down the Btreet was that of the conductor; that the tenants, of the finest brick block on the busiest coiner in town nab! their rentals to the conductor. Finally lie made certain that this fru gal conductor had had no source of income aside from his salary. At night he looked up the thrifty employee and told him that the company no longer had anv need of his services. The trusted employee naturally wanted an explanation, which was promptly forthcoming. The company, he was informed, endeavored to keep its em ployees of such marked financial abil ity as he had shown, In departments more Intimately connected with the office of the treasurer of the company. The conductor then artvuncea liu astounding argument for his retention. 'I have enough,' he said. 'There is no temntatlon for me to hold out the larg er change that gathers in my pockets during my attention to duties. But how about the new man you must era- iioV should you discharge me? Will it not be necessary for him to deprive the eomuany of other funds until ho shall have built his mansion, erecteu another brick block and provided mm self with abundance?' And ".he super intendent, with a gasp of dismay, end ed the interview." "That is not a bad one," said Lin coin, "but if you will show me that It bas any application to your case i will assure you of my support." "It's x harealn." said the candidate. "You ree, to secure my first nomination and election I had to promise friends who were wholly incompetent to positions as assistants in' my office. So when was elected. I had to keep fnith wttn heso persons unfited for the work at he expense of tno taxpayers.
