IN MEMORY OF DR. M'LOUGHLIN.
Agitation at Oregon City of the question of erecting
a monument to Dr McLoughlin is timely, and Oregon
City furnishes at once an ideal and historical site for
euch a monument. Citizens of Oregon and Washing-
e enfc rtinns of these states as were known
lUUa Ul V ctvv- J
to and exploited by Dr. McLoughlin, whether as chief
factor of the Hudson's Bay Company or m an
years as a public-spirited American citizen, may well
be called upon to forward this object, both by their
interest and their means. For many years, compris
ing the formative period in which civilization estab
lished its outposts in the Pacific Northwest, Dr. Mc
Loughlin was the ruling spirit of events.
Kind, somewhat austere, as became the ruling power
in a section far removed from the seat of government;
just and generous, he filled a place in the energies and
exigencies of the time the importance of which cannot
be overestimated. Americans who obtained a foothold
in the land which he had occupied in unquestioned
authority for many years conceived more or less pre
judice againBt him in the earlier times because he was
first of all a British subject, with all that that implied
to a man in his Btation of authority; but this gradu
ally melted away when he became an American citi
zen and was as loyal to his adopted as he had been to
his native country. He made his home at Oregon
City at that time the goal for which transcontinental
immigration struggled. Engaging m the peaceiui
pursuits of business in the old pioneer town; interested
in its growth and identified with its prosperity, he
passed the last years of his eventful life there died
and was buried there, and there through all the years
the ceaseless monotone of the Willamette falls has
been his requiem.
Almost as often as burial has been made in private

To carry the presidential ivntest next year' the
Democrats must reverse the figures of the latest Mat
elections to the extent of 73 electoral votes. Of course,
this gain is admitted to be hopeless without New
York's o as a start. Even with New York, 34 more
electoral votes would be necessary to win by a major
ity of 1 in the electoral college. New York and New
Jersey transferred to the Democratic column would
still leave that party 22 short of an electoral majority.
calculated to win thoso two states
would make a break elsewhere in the Democratic line
It is quite improbable, for example, that Mr. Cleve
land con Id carrv Missouri. He would certainly fail
in Nevada and Rhode Island, and be unpalatable to
the strong Bryan element in Kentucky, joining
short of a powerful upheaval, no clement of which is

the basis of the estimate, which is the best avauaoie
test.
THE JAMESTOWN TERCENTENNIAL.
Senator Mitchell, of Oregon, has introduced a bill
which provide! for an appropriation of $2,I25,0'0 by
the government in aid of the Lewis and Clark Expo
sition, which is to be held at Portland from May 1 to
Nov. 1. DKW. It will be seen that only a few months
will elapse between the closing of tho St. Louis Expo
sition and the opening of this exposition at I ortland,
and still another exposition is being planned to cele
brate an event that ante-dates the Louisiana Pur
chase and the Lewis and Clark exposition by nearly
two centuries. This is the Jamestown Tercentennial
Exposition, which is set for 11)07, and which is in
tended to bean impressive memorial of the first per
manent English settlement in America.
As yet. however, the completion of the undertaking
. a
is doubtful because of the condition that stock sub
scriptions must amount to a million dollars by Jan. 1
next. Officials of the company are "tumping Vir
einia to raise the necessary sum in time, and are
makinz special appeals to the tidewater districts of
O a a
the state, which would derive the greatest benefit
from the enterprise. Though irginia has undoubt
edly a peculiar interest in the proposed celebration,
the event that is to be celebrated was of such excep
tional historic importance that it is or the highest in
terest to the whole country. It ranks with the dis
covrey and the declaration; its date and tho romantic
incidents of the settlement are made familiar to every
child; the observance of the tercentennial would natu
rally be in the broadest sense national. And although
Jamestown consists now of nothing much besides a
ruined tower, and the site of the exposition overlooks
Hampton Roads, the whole district along the James
and York rivers is properly included within the

spots in rural New England are the family burial
plots. Once "sacred to memory." they are now (where
they have not been obliterated by the plow of the
careless stranger) overgrown by wildwood tangle,
marked only a3 burial places by reeling or prostrate
slabs of crumbling sandstone, or more jenduring but
weatherstained, mossgrown marble.
Times change and people change. The personality
that is prominent and powerful in the affairs of today
is forgotten in the tomorrows of half a century. Hence
it is that few of the citizens of Oregon, relatively
speaking, know that the dust of Dr. McLoughlin, de
posited less than half a century ago by his request in
the small inclosure of the church in which he rever
ently worshiped, lies there in an obscure grave.
The proposition to erect a monument to his memory
includes a site on the hill, picturesque and command
ing beyond description, and eminently suitable for the
purpose. It would be well, were it possible to do so
from a sentimental point of view, if it also included
the removal of his remains to the site selected, when
the monument was completed and at the time of its
dedication. But whether this is done or not, the effort
to secure funds for building a monument to the mem
ory of Dr. McLoughlin should be continued until the
object is accomplished. Oregonian.
FACING THE FIGURES. ,
How did the forty-five etateB vote at their latest
elections? To answer this question is to deal with ac
complished facts. These figures are permanently on
record, whatever the future developments may be. By
the apportionment of representatives made by Con
gress under the census of 1900, the total electoral vote
in lfJ04 will be 470, The number necessary to a
choice is 2-'J9, or fifteen more than in the previous
decade. In the latest elections, including those of the
present month, the following slates were carried by
the Republicans: California, 10; Colorado, 5; Con
necticut, 7; Delaware, 3; Idaho, 3; Illinois, 27; Indi
ana, 15; Iowa, 13; Kansas, 10; Maine, C; Massachusetts,
16; Michigan, 14; Minnesota, 11; Montana, 3; Ne
braska, 8; New Hampshire, 4; New Jersey, 12; New
York, "9; North Dakota, 4; Ohio, 23; Oregon, 4; Penn
sylvania, 34; South Dakota, 4; Utah, 3; Vermont, 4;
Washington, 5; West Virginia, 7; Wisconsin, 13;
Wyoming, 3. Total electoral votes in Republican
states, 310. At the latest elections the following states
went Democratic: Alaama, 11; Arkansas, 9; Floridaj
5; Georgia, 13; Kentucky, 13; Louisiana,!); Maryland,
8; Mississippi, 10; Missouri, 18; Nevada, 3; North

Virginia, lies within it. and is rich in memories of
Washington and all the great revolutionary leaders
of Virginia. Its old buildings make it, historically
considered, one of the most interesting places in the
United States. Then, again, Yorktown is not far
away, and there are many other places which recall
stirring periods in our colonial and revolutionary his
tory and in the history of our civil war.
SPECIAL SESSION CALLED.
Influenced by the practically unanimous sentiment
of the state, Governor Chamberlain has issued a call
convening the state legislature in special session at
Salein on Monday, December 21. The specific pur
pose for which the legislators are to be called together
at this time is the remedying of the tax law, in which
a serious defect was recently revealed. While the
sentiment in this county is very general for the ex
tra session, it is the opinion of the average taxpayer
that the session should be very brief and that only
remedial legislation of direct interest to the entire
state should be considered at this time. The legisla
tors should conclude all needful work and adjourn
within a week. If general legisla'ion is taken up and
the entire twenty days consumed in miscellaneous law
making, it is doubtful if the people of the state
would be any the better off for the calling of a Epecial
session.
Commendable interest in preserving the memory of
those who have been more or less prominently identi
fied with the history of the Northwest is shown by the
women of Oregon City who have originated the move
ment to erect monuments in honor of Dr. McLoughlin
and Sacajawea. The members of the local tawis fc
Clark club are truly monument builders and in their
efforts they are receiving substantial encouragement
from throughout the entire United States. The ex
tent of the aid and encouragement the ladies are re
ceiving is in proportion as their purpose is deserving.
The sentence of twenty years in state's prison, im
posed on Robert Gardner in the circuit court last week,
was none the more severe and deserving than was the
lecture the prisoner received from Judge McIJride be
fore sentence was pronounced. When not under the
influence of intoxicants, Gardner was fairly industri
ous and nt a bad citizen, but the periods when the
man was not separated from liquor were so infrequent
and his criminal record so nearly continuous, that
Judge McBride was justified in the conclusion that
the interests of society did not require that Gardner
be longer permitted to be at large. The consequences
of Gardner's dissipation with evil companions, should
serve as a lesson to the young men of the community.
