THE BATTLE IS ON.
The crovernmout last Friday made
an attempt to Have the Elkins law and
the interstate commerce law from
becoming fatilo, by filing a petition
for a rehearing by the Uuited States
court of appeals in the caso Hgainst
the btanuara Oil Company of Indiana.
The millions of people who are in
terested in the case will bo glad to
know that this attempt by the admin
istration is undor tne shrewd manage
ment of Attorney-Gonoral Bonaparte
end the eminent attorney Frank H.
Kellogg. The petition is also sign id
by Edwin VV. Sims, U. S. district at
torney at Chicago, and Special Assist
ant JamoB H. Wilkorsoo, both of
whom roproSHiitod the government's
side of the case in tne original hear
ing before Judge Landis who admin
istered the f annus fine of $29,240,000
against the Octopus. Ic is very plain'
if the interpretation of the law as
given by Judgos Grosscup, Seaman
and Itakor were allowed to stand, the
prosecution of rebate cases in the fu
ture against corporations would be
impossible, ana the years that have
been required to bring about the laws
that were supposed to do away with
the discrimination to shippers, would
be time wasted and the standing of
the rovorsal would plunge our gov
ernment into a chaos of abuses which
coald probal-ly never bo overcome, for
why oould not the lash bo applied
again after fifteen years more of leg
iHlation which might te assigned to
oorreot this rebate evil?
Could a motive be plainer, can the
surmise be more unerring? Why tho
reversal npon snon emulow eronnns
That "the Standard Oil Company did
not know it was not paying legal
freight rates?" InfamousI The ad
mission of such testimony matters
littlo and why should not an honest
judge charge the jury suoh. It's but
a play. The Standard Oil will never
pay the fine, for whon their surplus,
whioli has been sot aside for the prop
er adjustment of the case, is at a low
ebb, tho jingling sacks of lesser evi
will be brought forth and thus the
buttle will wage the power of the
mighty dollar pitted against the na
tion's manhood, till rank a'"ter rank
falls before its deadly fire. Twelve
yearB ago this condition was a cam
paigu issno. Republicans scoffed at
the sngg3stion. The realistio has bo
come real. There is no power that
can force the payment of that fine.
By this is not meant the man who
takes another's ideas and improves
them, but the one who trades or en-,
deavors to secure trade on the efforts,
brains, courage and risks taken by
another man in creating some ereat
industry. The man who spends hun
dreds or perhaps thousands of dollars
in advertising his goods, must offer
only tho best that can be produced
and it is the satisfied oustomer who
purchases again and again that must
be depended on. and through tersis
tent work are those onstomers secured
and retained. The man who believes
in steady advertising and distributes
his appropriations judiciously through
out the year will meet with greater
returns than the chap wiio spends the
same amount in two or three big
plunges and then lies back to regain
his wind, and this is no mere theory.
THE CHICAGO WATERWORKS
Besides tho large exhibit that the
Oregon Agricultural College will
make at the Oregon State Fair at Sa
lem, September 14-19, next, the
officers of that institution have nr
ranged to give the rair visitors some
special entertainment each day. Each
afternoon the commodious auditorium
adjoining the main pavilion will be
darkened and from its platform differ
ent members of the faculty will give
lectures illustrated by ' slereopticon
views pertaining to tlioir respective
departments at the college, all of
which have a bearing on the agri
cultural industries of the Btato. Fri
day, the fifth . day of tho fair, has
been set aside as "Agricultural Col
lege" day and special efforts will be
made to have this the most important
occasion of the entire weok. The
Orogon Agricultural College has the
ropuatatiou of being one of the lead
ing educational institutions of the
Puoiflo coast and its participation in
tho program of the fair shows that its
prosidont and his co-workers fully ap-
prooiate that the fair is a worthy
cause which has been a great factor
in the state's development.
Railroad Building- in Oregon.
Relying upon tho promisos made by
Mr. liarnman, Oregon will soon have
more railroads. It is proposed that
13,000,000 will be spent in the con
struction of Hues into Central Oregon,
and work will probably be com
menced this full. It is quite likely
that tho proposod road from the Co
lumbia river a short distance above
The Dalles, runniug Bouth to Kla
math Falls with an intersecting line
ooiiueoting with the Corvallis &
Southern at Conetran, running from
Woodborn south. The cost in getting
into tikis desired Orogon territory will
bo the prime factor of determining
the routes already surveyed.
These matters are now undor dis
cussion by Mr. Harrimau and his as
sociates and elaborate data .of all the
different routes will bo taken to Peli
HHii Bay where the conference this
weok will decide what projected line
.they will take. Once started the
work will be carried forward with all
tho speed that money can accomplish.
There is nothing to hinder the work
during the winter months and in all
probability tho line will be completed
far enough to take up the grain ship
ments befordjuiothor fall.
It has been considered by traffic
mou generally for years that a road
extended noross the state north and
south in EaHteru Oregon commended
itself as good businesa judgement.
It would tap a grain district ub rich
ns that of tho Columbia Southern
and great reclaimatiou work has al
ready boon constructed in the De
Hhutcs region, whoro hundreds of
settlers have taken laud and are oom
Hionoing to produce crops, and who
will weiocme the project with opeii
arms. Transportation as provided
will multiply the irrigated fur ins and
greatly increase products which will
give sufficient revenue to tho rail
road project. All along the foothills
of tho eastern slope of tho Cascades
thoro are forests ot pine which will
invito lumbermen as soon as the mar
keting of lumber is provided. It
looks as though Mr. llurrimau in
tends getting after the hnsinoss iu
every section of tho state not now
reached by his lines and the fact of go
many electric linos iu the regions
whore steam lines now exist and the
probability of great extuunioiiH has
done much towards tho reaching out
into all the sections of Oregon by
Mr. llarriiuau.
Adlui E. Stevenson, former vice
president, has been nominated by the
deinooratg of Illinois as .a candidate
for governor and the democrats of
that state are very jubilant over the
prospects of their carry ng the state.
The Chicago Record-Herald says :
"It has boon a decade since the dem
ocrats of Illinois had a love feast, but
it now looks probablo that they will
hare one at the next meeting of tho
Btate'central committee or at the state
convention held September 9. " Mr.
"McGoorty, sneaking of the nomina
tion, says: "The party has honored
itself in,the nomination of its most
commanding figure, Adlai E. Steven
son. I hold him in the highest re
spect and predict his suoccbs at the
polls in November."
Owners of famous norsos as well as
breeders of fancy stock are coining to
Portland daily from all parts of the
countrv to seo the marvelous grounds
and traok of tho Portland Country
Club and Live Stock Association.
The show will open September 3st
and continue a week. Track and
barns will be completed by tho open
ing nay. sso matter now much vis
itors may expect, thoy will not be
diirappoiuted, for tho whole situation
is ideal.

Uouferenee have arranged for a Good

temher 4th, and another at Kosebnrg
September 22nd. Other meetings are
under consideration and definite dates
will be decided within a few days.
There is universal determination to
make this campaign the most effective
the state has ever experienced.
Fifty thousand soavonir nnstnl cards

considered by many as tho most artis

An independent man is hy all odds
the best fortified of any, if from his
conviction ho limls it possible to cease
shearing by his conscience, give i.p
the theory that his party is pre-eminent
in all things and tin) theory that
his party must win at all hazards.
Those he believes ho has to do in or
der to become independent ; but how
far off tho trail he has wandered, lie
senilis not to oonsidor that ho is free
and indopendei.t from tho very start
of his life and that he has become
bound down and'narrow and bigoted
and crusty by holding on to one thing
so long, by talking one kind of talk
all his life He perhaps concodes that
his partv may bo wrong in a few non
essentials, but ho holds it to be right
in tho main, and that a compromise
with the other party (and he has been
told by many loading politicians that
tho other party should bo called en
emy) amounts to a surrender of all
that his dear old party has stood for.
For these and other equally uusnund
reasons ho feels that lie must stick to
his party through good and evil re
port until he feels tho time has come
to hhift his allegiance to another
party whoso platform by the vicissi
tudes of politics, has fallen iu the
line of his own cherished private con
victions. Yes they're private be
caustt he has allowed them to work
into his mind through the medium of
having been patted on the back time
and again and swallowed a few soft
words he lias been gullible. He
knows it, but his prond spirit will
not. permit, him to turn his back on
the eminent fellow who shook bauds
with him at th last campaign but
not since then.

Th Report of the Civil Service Com
mission of Chicago to the Commis
ioner of Publio Worke April 17,
1908.
Investigation of certain charges pre
ferred by your department against
employees iu the water bureau aud a
subsequent Inquiry Into conditions In
that service show that neglect of duty.
lack of discipline, insubordination and
corruption have demoralized that serv
ice as far back as there is a record
of the office. From evidence before If
the commission Is convinced that the
fundamental cause lies In lack of or
eanlzatlon and discipline and hi the
absence of common business methods.
The commission is of the opinion
that these evils eaunot be corrected
wholly by Bpasmodic investigation or
by occasional discharge of employees.
Evidence placed before the commission
by Deputy Commissioner JJedleske of
the department of public works and
Superintendent MeCouit of the water
bureau, whose efforts brought about
this inquiry, shows utter disregard of
the rights of public property ou the
part of those charged with its custody
and use.
It proved complete absence of a
sense of responsibility on the part of
employees. Officials of the bureau tes
tified that no adequate check Is kept
upon the city property and supplies.
It was shown that officials holding re
sponsible positions were mere figure
heads without authority. Testimony
was heard showing that, following tho
removal on charges by this commission
of a former superintendent of the office,
it developed that there were 000 un
sealed meters in the city. At the same
time it was found that fifteen wards
of the city had not been reassessed
during the last five years. Subsequent
assessment of three of these wards
added $20,000 annually to the revenues
of the water office. '
Testimony heard under oath In re
gard to the working force of the meter
mechanical division disclosed that un
der these conditions the most the city
obtained for a day's pay, was CO per
cent of a day's work. Efficiency sheets
for the period covered hy this esti
mate of the value of a day's work
unwarrantedly credited all employees
with high efficiency. The head of that
division testified he was not permitted
during his Incumbency of seven years
to maintain discipline.
While the commission has no direct
evidence of criminal acts warranting
prosecution, there is no doubt the city,
through neglect, petty stealing, tam
pering with meters and lack of effi
ciency, for many years has suffered
great loss. Lax methods made easy
the theft of water. A discrepancy be
tween the revenue possibilities of the
water bureau and the actual income is
such as to shock the business sense of
any citizen.
In a general way the luquiry of tho
commission covered nil branches of the
water service. Conditions under which
the entire bureau has been operated
are such that they protect neither the
city, the property owner nor the em
ployee. Responsibility is so spread
that, so far as the luquiry has progress
ed, the commission is unable to fix re
sponsibility for more serious com
plaints. Inquiry along these lines
might be prolonged Indefinitely, with
the sole result of an accumulation of
evidence of Incompetency and lax
methods.
It is therefore the conclusion of the
commission that there Is nothing fur
ther to be accomplished by a proceed
ing of this character. To correct abuses
efforts must bo directed to systematic
constructive work.
With that end la view the comrnls-.
slon recommends a complete reorgan
ization of the bureau. To effect this
expert assistance should be given the
office to enable it to work out a busi
ness system and establish discipline.
The commission, in co-operation with
your department, will continue the In
quiry. To make It more effective It
desires to place nn expert accountant
In the 4Ilee to audit certain accounts
and to m'ake such further Investigation
as It may direct. In this step it has
two objects in view the possibility of
fixing responsibility for frauds and,
what It believes to be of greater Im
portance, to point out the Inadequacy
of the methods of uccouuting. During
this Inquiry the commission will deal
summarily with specific Instances of
neglect of duty, Incompetency or fraud.
In addressing this communication to
you the commission realizes that its
courso is unusual. It believes, how
ever, that the city's greatest loss In
revenue and labor In tho water office Is
fundamental and can only be corrected
by constructive work.
Of the twenty-eight cases in which
charges have been heard by the com
mission a number of discharges have
been ordered. Findings will be for
warded to you. In tho cases of labor
ers iu which testimony was heard a
transcript of the evidence is herewith
transmitted for your action.

DROPPING IN HY THROAT
MRS. ELIZABETH H. MARTIN,
3S2 Bowen Avenue, Chicago, 111.,
Chaplain Garfield Circle, writes:
"Peruna has been a blessing to our
family for a good many years, as we
have all used it off and on for colds and
catarrh, and I have given it to all of my
children with tho best of results.
"I found that a cold left me with
catarrh of the head in a very bad form.
My iiead was stopped up, I had frontal
headaches, my eyes bothered me, and
there was a naBty dropping in my
throat which nauseated me and .made
it impossible many times for me to eat
my breakfast.
"As soon as I began to use Peruna I
found it relieved me, my head soon
cleared up and in a remarkably short
time I was rid of catarrh.
"I can, therefore, give my personal
experience with your valuable medi
cine, and am pleased to do so."

Dressjtor Business Women.
Anna Steese Richardson talks to
business girls in the August Woman's
Home Companion on th importance
of good taste in dress.
Said a Frenchman to Mrs. Richard
son not long ago, as thby sauntered
through a model department store :
"Your working girls they are won
derful. See, they are ladies! Suoh
well-kept hands, such beatifully
coifed heads, such smart shoes ! They
must spend much time to make them
selves ready for work. Nowhere else
in the world will you see such girls
earning their living."
"The self-supporting woman iu
America has won an euviable reputa
tion for good taste in dress," says the
writer.- "Not even in Paris, where
every woman is supposed to be chio
and to have an 'air', do the self
supporting girls bear the stamp of
gentility in clothes tint yon can note
in any largo city or faotory town in
the United States. "
