WILSON.
The expected happened. Wood
row Wilson is elected president
by a sweep of the country.
His election was an American
protest against trust legislation
and trust government. The people
have given the party another
chance to relieve oppressive con.
dilions.
Wilson has a great opportun
ity before him. No man was el
ected president with more con
fidence hack of his election. He is
a splendid type of American citi
zen and he has brains and ability.
He is a thinker, an actor. He does
things.
He has a Democratic house be
hind him, a progressive Demo
cratic congress and every means
to make good with. That be will
make good the vote of the people
is prool. mere are nig pronieins
before him. but he is a nig man,
big enough to meet them.
TAFT.
It was a national mistake to
have nominated Tafl. He is fit
ted for a judge, but not an ad
ministrator. His administration
has been a failure in the eyes of
Me people, lie has been too easily
led and mlluenceil. lie lias not
been a popular man not a peop
le's favorile. He has acted too
much in favor of tho big interests
and too little for the plain people.
Tuesday's vole was" a repudiation
of hi.s administration you can't
make anything else out of it.
Taft's great mistake was when
he allowed congress to jamb
through the Payne Tariff bill. II
was treachery to promises and
platform. There was his oppor
tunity to have glume, hut he
lacked tho courage to sland up
and tell congress to make good
its pledges or he would veto the
bill. He pluyed golf while the tar
ilf was revised upward, and when
he signed that bill he killed every
chance he ever had for a second
term.
ROOSEVELT.
He was counted out by the ref
eree Tuesday night, and from now
on ho will he a Jeffries.
He thought he wus several
kinds of a white hone and could
come back. Hut he had lost- his
wallop-rho hadn't the judgement
to null when hu. was well oil' and
he lias gone down und out. He got
Tafl, Taft got him and Wilson
got' them both.
Roosevelt has had a remark
able career and has bad success
thrust upon him until he thought
ho could not fail. Four years
ago the people clamored for him,
and had he consented to have
run, nothing could have prevent
ed his election. But he refused in
favor of Taft, and then repudiated
the man he made. Ami that re
pudiation sourced the people, and
defeated Roosevelt and killed the
Republican party.
The "Paid Adv." will now have
a vacation.
And cvciw.loc Cannon was bur
ied with the rest.
And old Oregon went
cratic. "We (old you so."

Thousands of men voted for n
dead man for vice president, ami

pledges. It must make good now.

I read an editorial from a New
York paper last week which stated
that after election was over, the
president and cabinet would take
up the Mexican situation ami go
into it tnorougniy.

There are ever two sides to this
Mexican affair and a man can
find ample grounds to sustain
eil her position.
Tluv will tell vou there are mil
lions of American capital and
thousands oi Americans in niex
ieo, and that it is up to Americ
to protect these men and these in
inraJr lli:il. if I. hn Mexican eov
eminent can't or won't protect
Americans, then it is up to this
country to lo declare war and
force protection.
And when 1 hear a man make
this crack I ask him if he would
be one of the volunteers to go
down across the Rio Grande and
I,, I Km i KfiTo carve him un.
for the "protection of American
interests?"
How many of the Americans

How much confidence have you
in American justice?
How much do you want to bet
that Becker, tho New York police
captain, who has been found
guilty of murder, first degree,
will ever get (dose enough to the
electric chair to see what it looks
like?
I'm betting they never execute
him, or come anywhero near it
Are you game?
John Melnlyre, Becker's law
yer, says there are over 4,000
"objections" to the judge's rul
ings, and only one of llnjso lias
got to stick to give the court of
appeals a ehanru to reverso and
grant a new trial.
Behind Becker is politics, mon

hunch this trio will see that the
electric current isn't run down
Meeker's spine.
The same influence behind
Roberts, (the Clackamas county
murderer) would have saved
him just, as it saved murderer
Thaw, and ninny another murder

rich man escapes. Such are our
modern jusl ice mills.
If Jack Johnson can he put in

There is not a man, black or

and defied decency; be has brag

At I. ill In li'nlls N. Y . there has
been a strike on in the knitting
mills for some weeks, and two
weeks ago the strikers asked
Mayor Lund, the Socialist of
Schneetady. to come there and
make an address, in hopes that it,
might help to settle the strike.
When he started to talk he was
arrested and jailed. The result
hundreds of men who believe that
the Constitution should guaran
tee free speech, are Socialists. It
would seem that big business is
bent on making Socialists or
anarchists.
How many of you Courier read,
ers know there is a state of our
Union that is doing its own in
surance business?
Not many I'll bet. And doesn I
it seem just ii little peculiar that
such a radical change should
not have made more noise?
Hut you see Fighting Bob La
l'ollette had a hand in this change
anil big busines and big business
news papers haven't been making
first page news stories of it.
Wisconsin has stale insurance
ti operation and the state is issu
ing life insurance at cost.
Anything wrong about this?
There are no solicitors and big
commissions to agents. If a man
wants insurance he sjmply calls
for it, he knows there is simply
one rate and that rale is actual
cost.
Tho credit of the stale of Wis
consin is back of this insurance,
and it is as good and as safci as
the old lino companies.
Now I would like to have some
Now 1 would like to have some
one tell mo why this would not be
a good idea for progressive Ore
gon if they can.
I would like to know wli ylhis
would not he just as good, an idea
as will be the parcels nosts or as
are the postal savings banks?
And 1 would like to know why
this idea could not be applied to
fire insurance and many other
things.
If this Wisconsin idea doesn't
spread and be adopted by other
stutes, then I am a poor guesser.
You know this country is sapped
by big preinuinis for the many
life insurance companies.
Some day ciflies of this siw
will have ONE Protestant church;
it will be supported by all denom
inations; it will have brainy, edu
cated pastor and it will have one
beautiful ffhurch building.
This asking a city of our size
to support fourteen churches
seems all very silly and wasteful.
They are all working for the same
end, and what niatt,er tho dif-l
feront means?
The same broad viewpoints
that are abolishing political par
ties are going to abolish denom
inations, and it isn't going to
matter whether a man is a hard
or soft shell Baptist; a close com
munion or universalis!; a Metho
dist or an Episcopalian.
iAnd when the time comes when
wo shall have one big church and
ono brainy preacher, then we Will
see more bald beads facing the
pulpit; more intrest taken in re
ligion and church services less
a "duty."
And you may bet and win that
this change is coming not quite
so fast as political reforms (for
churches move slow) but just as
surely.
Tho campaign just closed, -has
demonstrated that the field for
tho nartisan newspaper has be
come mighty small and spotted,
and that ireo thinking men, vvnne
they may tolerate the "organ"
from the viewpoint from home
patriotism they refused lo be in
fluenced or led by it.
The paper of the hereafter, or
tho nresent, if you please, is the
ono that gels close to its audien
ce and slicks around.
Of tho thousands and thous
ands of Republican newspapers
in this country, it is said DO per
cent were lor ran.
And you can see what they
failed to do. They couldn't put
him over and I hey only lessened
their influence in Irving to drive
the people.
he newspaper mat will play a
dead square game and play it
long enough, so its readers will
know it is on the level, that nevvs
naner can build up an inlluence
that will be fell, and its opinions
will lead.
Hut the nartisan newspaper,
with its ready-made, contracted
one-idea policy is becoming re
diculous amid silly. ' Men want
an open sheet and arguments;
men want honest criticism and
brains and the newspaper thai.
lelivers these will get the readers.
Nevada, famous for its prize
llghls. easy divorces and rough
necks, has a stale law that some
of our ambitious legislators
nuld make lame lor themselves
by copying and presenting at Sa
lem I lus winier.
It has a law making it a crime
to sell or give away eiigartlto
papers to any man, woman or
mid in uto siaie.
Kverv stale in the union should
have such a law. Public sentiment
would back it, to a standstill.
Why don t the states have it?
See the giant tobacco trust for
answer.
F.lherl Hubbard, the famous
Uoveroft editor and lecturer said:
"I have seen many a smart man
smoke cigarettes but 1 saw him,
at hi smartest. "-
This vicious cigarette habit
lias I ho vices all skinned. It, is
the front door to cocaine, mor
phine, booze and the rest of the
list.
It will set a kid back more Ihau
pneumonia. It will lessen any
man's brain power
Some fellow I hat is not afraid
of a tobacco sign when be passes
it, io- the great octopus that nut
up the sign, should spring a lull
similar to the Nevada bill at Sa
lem this winter and see what
would come f it.
The people would rise up and
say "amen" and the tobacco trust
would rise up and kill it. But it
would be worth the experiment
and seeing which of our repre
sentatives could be "got."
And the government at Wash
ingtou still lives.

Every man who can vote should
be compelled to vide. It should be
made compulsory with a penally
of a fine or disfranchisement for
a certain time for failure.
There was many a man in
Clackamas county who did not
vide, Tuesday, who simply would
not vole. There was many a man
who did not even register.
If you would tell these men they
should not vole, why they would
swell up with the spirit of George
Washington and go bunt a gun.
If a man hasn't enough inter
est in governing bis state or
country lo vole once in two or
four years, his state or country
should make hi'm smart until it
developed some interest he
should be handled.-as a juror is
handled made to pay a fine for
his neglect of duty.
And you will generally find the
man who will not vide is about
a half breed anarchist, who has
n't as much use for the American
flag than he has for a horse
blanket, and the man who yells
the loudest and longest against
present conditions.
The lesson of the special char
ter and bond election Saturday is
plain to any wayfaring man. It is
A warning that the people will
tolerate no longer the overloading
of the ballot with promiscuous
measures: and the taxpaying
public proposes to call a halt on
all public expenditures not actu
ally essential to the progress and
developenient of city and state.
Oregohian, Monday.
Now you voters who handled a
ballot as big as Ihe Oregonian's
front page Tuesday, what do you
think of the consistency of the
above editorial?
Just think back lo Tuesday and
remember bow many of the prop
ositions that loaded down the bal
lot were there by and for the in
terests of big business which the
Oregonian has championed.
Look back to Tuesday and re
member how precious few of
these propositions were put there
by the people. ,
And remember again that the
Oregonian has fought this right
of the people to kill oil these pro
miscuous measures and stop
these public expenditures has
fo.ught the initiative, tho refer,
endum and recall all tho way
down the line.
' The ballot was loaded down
with expenditures and big busi
ness aid propositions, in Port
land and in the state by the frien
ds of the Oregonian, but tho init
iative and tho referendum gave
the people the power to dump the
load.
I pole that Assemblyman Wen
do introduced a bill in the New
York legislature to amend the
public health law by making it a
misdemeanor,' punishment by im
prisonment of not over six mon
ths or a fine of more than $500,
or both, to ropapcr or recalci
miiio walls or ceilings of build
ings for living or working pur
ings fo r living or working pur
poses, until all the old paper has
been removed. This is done to
keep the germs out, and to keep
us well, And when I see such bills
introduced and see the papers ap
prove such measures, 1 can't help
but soo the old box car on the
siding, packed wilh Dagos to the
roof, a kitchen, dining room, par
lor and sleeping box, where men
pack in like sardines. And did you
ever see a sick Dago? Do you
suppose it is because thqy are
American germs?
One of the most popular things
the coining congress could do
would be to pass a national di
rect primary law and abolish the
present national convention sys
tem, and let the people vote for
candidates just as Oregon votes
for V. S. senator.
The three national conventions
last summer were disgraceful,
scandelous. J hey were not rep
resentative. Delegate s almost
stood on the auction block and in
vited bids, and the corporal ions
were openly out to win.
The American voters are not
going lo stand for this long and
support the means that sells
them out, and the Democratic
party in control of congress now
has its shining opportunity to
pass a law that gives a man a
chance to vide direct and elimin
ate the delegates who go to (hose
national gatherings to trade
horses, get jobs and sell you out.
And we will watch with inter
est, to see if congress lias sand
enough to defy the big interests
and president makers.
No doubt hence no belling.
With nearly all the papers in
the slate pounding Latterly, lie
won for congress. Latterly said it
was a clear case of persecution.
And Ihe vote sustains his claim.
II looks like a case of too much
newspaper abuse.
Sheriff. Mass certainly got a
handsome vindication. He had. or
ganized politics to fight and the
machine bucked him hard. But
the machine doesn't cut much ice

Following is an editorial writ
ten by James II. Barry, editor of
the San Francisco Star. The edit
or is a forceful writer and his
opinions have attracted much
comment on the coast:
"Strike and strike, and yet
again strike is in the news. Every
where the workers complain of
tho high cost of living with which
wage increase does not keep pace
at all. The strikes in progress or
threatened, are of such propor
tions that only national govern
ments can deal wilh them. They
can't deal wilh them soley by re
pression; government must try
something else.
"There is but one thing to try,
we are told. That is tho esWilish
ment of a minimum wage. It may
have to bo tried, since so many
people cannot think any further
than that device, but the mini
mum wage will fail. The mini
mum wage is only ,a stop-gap,
which will temporarily relieve
conditions only to make them
worse eventually.
"There cannot be successful
wage regulation by law while
conditions which the law cannot
touch operate irresistibly to low
er wages. The best thing govern
ment can do is to make oppor
tunity for work for every man. It
can do this only by unlocking the
land for the use of the people
without their paying tribute to
owners. That once done, the gov
ernment can do nothing hotter
than let wages alone; With a job
open lo everybody, wages will go
up every where.
"Wages will go up because lab
or will be in demand, and they will
not go up at tho expense of cap
ital, for with plenty of free labor
at work they do nothing but cre
ate capital. The minimum wage
theory will not work in a world
where there is no minimiatzon of
monopoly of the only thing upon
vvnicn laiior can ne exorcised ui
redly or indirectly the land."
