A YOUNG WOMEN FOR WIVES A special from Seattle says: With the avowed purpose of Inducing 10. 000 American women to go to Japan and prepare themselves to become the brides of natives of that country, Maro Takayano of Toklo, Is In Seattle. From Seattle he will go to Portland then to San Francisco, where he hopes to find his plan greeted with acclaim. If successful In this ex traordinary design. Takayano will ask his country to send an equal number of young men to this country In search of young American wives. Takayno Is firmly convinced, at the voyage to Japan will be met by an association of prominent Japanese and that if. after being given an op portunity to learn the language and otherwise to acquaint themselves with the country, they are dissatisfied, the women will be sent home. Tayayano Is .firmly convinced, at least he so expresses himself, that a union of this country with his own Is inevitable and that Intermarriage Is the most reasonable solution of the question which Is now antagonizing the two nations.

The Standard Oil Company can al ways find men to do Its bidding even among the Judiciary. These men have their price and as the Standard always has the money an arrange ment is easily effected. Not that the Standard hires men to set aside court decrees by "the strength of his good right arm," oh, no; but the Standard attorneys show him how and where he can find a hole through which he can crawl and allow the Standard to escape. And the Judge then lays back on the oar of "irregularity," or some other equally flimsy excuse, and the people are made to suffer. Now comes a Judge Duncan, of Findlay, who has quashed the sum mons served on John D. Rockefeller In Cleveland last summer on the plea that Mr. Rockefeller represents a for eign corporation that Is not doing bu siness in Ohio. The Standard Is not doing business in Ohio! How much did Judge Duncan get for his deci sion? Isn't it about time Judge Dun can was given a coat of tar and feath ers? And will the people of Ohio sit by and allow such a decree to stand? A decree which Is the outcome of a corrupt bargain between an offending corporation and a debauched official? People should awake to this fact that It is not good law. to admit that a corrupt bargain and sale can alien ate their rights in any case or cases. Right Is not changed into wrong by a bargain and sale between two cor rupt individuals; the people cannot loose their rights through the cor ruption of an official the coming into their rights may be delayed but a cor rupt official cannot set aside right by or through any decision.

Editor Enterprise: It Is not so: many years ago since the temperance: people protested against saloons run-1 nlng open so that "youngsters pass- ' ing on the street on their way to and . from school." as the temperance Hgl-1 tators at that time put It, should not see the evils that a saloon presents. ; Why this change in front? Did the temperance people find they were mistaken as to the outcome In that former protest; or Is this new protest an attempt to put the saloon out of business entirely? If the later, why are they not honest with the people and saloonlsts and come out flat-footed for no saloons under any circum stances? It has been Intimated by some that this is the end sought, and the temperance people are striving to gain their ends by strategy and with out acknowledging the facts in the case, how much better are they than any other individual who "does wrong that good may come?" If saloons are to be allowed to run wo believe it is a wlso precaution that there bo screens. If things are carried on be hind the screens that are unlawful there Is now a remedy, and to admit that the saloonlst Is a "wiser guy" than the temperance man is some thing that few would care to do.' If you would put the saloon out of business do it, but do It honestly and fairly. Serve notice on him that you propose to force him out of business If he will not. quit voluntarily, then he can sell his stock, close his doors with money in his pocket with which to be gin in some other line on which you Lhave not placed a ban. An honorablo man or men will deal honorably with others, even If those others are saloonlsts and In a business they can not countenance. 1 But the fanantlcal portion of the tomporance following do not want a saloon man to have a chance In this life. Thoy look upon him as an out-' law and without uny Imp" of salva tion. In this life or the life to come. Their skins fit so tightly that tho least bit of expansion would burst .the skin, hence they dnro not nlhiw even their little soul to expand. They would not only put the saloonlst out of business, but they would ruin him and bis fu ture chances, close all future oppor tunities, wreck him financially and send him and his family to the poor house. And utterances of this charac ter hive been made In Oregon City many times slnco the present fight was on. If these conservative temperance, folk have nny regard for the children ami more modest women of the com munity they will leave the screens up till such time as tho Hcoiibo can be annulled. And but for the man with tho poli tical bee there would bo but little buz zing amqng the males of our tribe at this time. Ut's have a little history: Isn't It a fact thst practically this same ex cise law that has been presented for approval In Oregon City was put Into effect In Colorado? Isn't It a fact that a few months later It was repeal ed for the principal reason thnt tho children did "rubber" so much that It was decided to be a measure en dangering the morals of the llttlo . folks? And Isn't It a fact that the young men seeing certain "good and moral citizens" who do take a drink Imbibing did have a tendency to mako these young men admit it could not be so bad to drink as the Sunday school teacher may have told them? And when we stop to analyze tho lives of some of these men who are shouting themselves hoarse In this campaign, are there not more than one whom we would not care to have our children take as "living examples" of how they should live and die? "He that Is without Bin let him cast the first stone." And we can't find any place In the Scripture where tbo saloonlst was to be made an exception when the question of target was tak en into consideration. , The saloon is not a good Institution; we agree with these agitators on that proposition; but let's be fair In our attempts to correct the evil.
