CHAUTAUQUA. In the Inst 14 years hundreds of thou amis of neonfe hvt been entertained at Gladstone Park for two weeks In July with programmes that have beeti excep tional for their variety and brilliancy Men high in the councils of our nation women who are the leaders of their sex musicians, artists and authors of note ... i..n heard, appreciated and ap plauded. Intellectual feasts, pleasingly munled with happy hours, have been given to the people of the Willamette Valley and It Is to their credit mat tney h.vo been liberal In their attendance to Chautauqua and they have been the 4innrfl thereby. We are now on the threshold of the fifteenth annual session of the Willamette Valley Chautauqua Assembly. The pro gramme Is choice and will probably eclipse those of previous sessions, for as the years go by. the public demands bet ter talent, which, by the way. costs more money, and necessitates better audienc es if Chautauqua would survive. This month we are to hear one lecture from John Sharp Williams, who for years bas led on the floor of the National House of Representatives, the hosts of Democracy. With his soft Southern ac cent, his emphatic gestures, his gift of language. Mr. Williams Is worth going miles to bear. He was recently elected United States senator from Mississippi, and because he has been sent to the Millionaires' Club, he will be of far less use to the people of his state. Bishop Mclntyre, of the Methodist Episcopal church Is another man "worth while. Alfred Montgomery, the farmer painter. Is a delight, but it is no use try tng to tell of so many of them. Go and see for yourself and hear and drink in the best that is to be obtained. However It Is looked at, either by It self or in comparison with preceding platforms, the new declaration of the principles of the Republican party is a record of progress and no less a promise of further progress. The fact that both Mr. Gompers and Mr. Bryan are dissat isfied with the platform will cause the majority of people to feel sure that it must be a. good one. Republican discipline has again tri umphed over Republican discontent. Be fore the extras were on the streets in Chicago, announcing the nomination of Secretary Taft. his opponents were tel egraphing their felicitations. Senator Foraker. most prominent of the allies wrote immediately to "Mr. Taft. extend ing "heartiest congratulations and beBt wishes for success in November"; while Mr. Taft thanked the Ohio Senator "from the bottom of my heart," and adds, "I have never ceased to remember that I owe to you my first substantial start in public life, and it came without solicita tion." When the convention met in Chi cago there were many signs of a revolt, but they have all disappeared now. Mr. Roosevelt's attitude in declining to permit under any circumstances, the use. of his name. before the Chicago con vention fixes beyond appeal as the un written and forever to be unbroken law of the republic that no President under any stress of circumstances shall be giv en a third successive term. This deci sion of Mr. Roosevelt has added to his fame and to the high estimation lr. which ' he will be held by posterity. Secretary hoeb has announced that there will be a change in the inaugural ceremony at Washington next March. Heretofore it has been the custom for the newly Inaugurated President and his predecessor to ride together to the White House, after the oath of office has been administered at the Capitol. President Roosevelt has decided, no matter whom his successor may be, he will not ac company him to the White House, but will, immediately after the ceremony at the Capitol, go to the Union station and take the train for Oyster Bay. It is reported that Secretary of State Root Is President Roosevelt's choice for Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of the United States, to fill the vacancy that will be caused by the retirement of Chief Justice Fuller. There Is no question that the legal ability of Elihu Root would add greatly to the weight and dignity of the Supreme court. Mr. Root is sixty three of age and in the prime of life. The question is not whether he is big enough for the place, but whether he would make the sacrifice his acceptance would entail. Secretary Root is not a wealthy man, as weulth is measured these days, ani had he followed his own inclinations would have retired from the Cabinet some time ago to resume the active prac tice of law. The distinguished honor of being Chief Justice of the United States is one not to be thrown lightly aside and many hope that Secretary Root will de cide to accept the offer the President has made. A New York contemporary has pointed out some interesting facts, among which Is that for the first time since 1864, the Republican party presents for the suff rages of the American people a ' man without military record or title. Grant, Hayes, Garfield, Harrison and McKlnley, were officers . of the Civil War, while. Roosevelt received his colonelcy in the war with Spain. Taft is a civilian. His victories hfve been victories of peace. In the "face of widely varying opin ions on the subject of finance the Re publican majority has once more dem onstrated its remarkable ability to subordinate personal views and pref erences to the opinion of the majority, and the most important law of the session the compromise financial bill, is the result. Whatever view may be entertained of the respective merits ot the various financial theories which found abundant expression In tho courso of the session, few Impartial judges will withhold admiration for the party discipline which brought harmony out of practically irreconcil able differences and enacted an Insur ance aualnst roeurrlnK monetary strin gencies and their consequent panics. ai i With the adjournment of the first session of the tioth Congress, another creditable pngo has been added to the history of the Republican party. Meeting under conditions not wholly auspicious, confronted by unsettled business conditions and hampered al most throughout the session by the unreasonable, filibustering tactics of the Democrats In the House, the lead ers of the majority havo written num erous valuable laws on the national statute books and have added a quota to the body of International law never before equalled by any session in the annals of the nation, ii-L'. J . '. . J1LI Flve of the twenty-five men who have been elected to the Vice-Presidency have become presidents and In view of this fact it behooves the Re publican party to select tho second man on the ticket .with greatest care. A decision has been rendered by the War Department which will ex clude militia commands from sharing in the profits acrutng from the con duct of bakeries and other establish ments at army posts or Joint man- oeuver camps. hen a regular troop or company is serving temporarily at a post it does not benefit by the pro fits of the bakery and other establish ments at that station, the profits go ing to the troop regularly on duty there, and it is considered that no greater favor may be extended, with propriety, to the militia. John D. Rockefeller has at last put himself on record as liking reporters. For many years he evaded them and thought they were a bad lot, but he has now come to the conclusion that they are not hired for the sole pur pose of misrepresenting things and that they are a rather good sort Monetary conditions continue re markably satisfactory, funds being readily available for all purposes at easy terms. June opened with a de cidedly better feeling in Wall Street, and In two days the market recovered an average of 2 a share for the sixty most active railway stocks, while the few leading securities made gains of $5 to $10. Our sister state of Oregon, It would seem, has got an overdose of the di rect primary law, which Is certainly true if it results in a Republican legis lature sending a Democrat to the United States senate. It i3 clearly a case of too much of a good thing, and Washington should therefore be care ful Puyallup (Wash.) Republican. The celebration by the Roman Cath olic Church of the most Important oc currence In its history in New lork City, will stand among the conspicu ous events of a religious nature In the history of the country. Such a large number of ecclesiastical dignitaries has not been gathered together in this country since the great Plenary Council in Baltimore. The Roseburg Commercial Clutvls after a practical cannery man to co operate with the people of Roseburg in establishing a fruit cannery. Mr. T. Britten, of Meldrum might do. He wanted to build a cannery In Ore. gon City, but was not met half way. We can take a lesson from Roseburg. A Mistaken Idea Some people have an idea that in order t3 have a bank account they must have a large sum to deposit, that the bank does not care to be bothered by small ac counts. This, however, Is not true of the Bank of Oregon City, whieh welcomes new ac counts, whether of $1.00, or $1000, and the same courtesy and service is accorded the small depositor as those in more fortunate circumstan ces. It is our object and wish to serve the public In finan cial matters in a manner that shall be satisfactory to all old or young, rich or poor. We want your banking business and will be pleased to have you open an account with us. The Bank of Oregon City LOCAL I3RIEPS J. 15. Walker la seriously III nt the Kleotrlo Hotel.
