Entered nt the oitomce at Portland, Oregon a lecond-clnss matter. (VnlcsoftliliHpervlino found on file nt Wish luston In tlic ofllueof our pclid lorn rpoiiiietit, K. O. Mcifil RS U18 1' Mnit, .. . sunscnii'TioN. Bat ytfr, pnynlitu In dTnc 2.00 The lntc poultry show In this city received rather a chicken-hearted sup port. The show Itself was excellent. Hvcn tho oldest Inhabitant Is as tounded by tho magnificent summer weather we nro Jjtrnjdwlntcr. Three local pc'vtylans have already been detected vn& knives up their cuITh. The municipal war Is probably on. Not only Capo Nomo, but Sumptor, Granite, linker City and llohemla will take many peoplo from Portland next spring. t Tho scrap In tho Trnnsvaal Is be coming Intensely Interesting. Tho Hoots nre great lighters and accurato henjamltcs. ""Tho boat railway project at Tho Dalles Is only a dream. Kastorn Ore Bon opposes It, according to Congress man Moody and ho knows. Tho registration books nro open for r.jgnnturos. Hvory legal voter should put his on tlioso records. The Negro voter is admonished not to delay. Tho greater part of tho high courts or Franco occupy their tlino with con Hplracy trials. Tho Frenchman Is a natural-born conspirator. Hut ho Is a fair actor generally until ho "gets caught." Kentucky also has a case of bribery In the matter of tho election of a gov ernor. WebfooteiH hIioiiIiI shako with tho llourboiiH In this tribulation. The bribery case In this slate has not been nettled yet. All In all, the Oregon representatives lu tho national congress are fairly well placed on committees. They uro In po rtion to do substantial work for tho iititte, and will no doubt Ioho no oppor tunity lo prosecute that work. Tho new registration law went Into nlTect on January I, I'.IOO. Coloied vol ant have special Intercut In putting their uamcH In the registry of legal HUfTraglsts. Tho local ballot-box Is their only salvation, politically. Senator llanna denies tho report that lilt desires to bo again made tho chair man of tho Republican national com mittee. It would bo well for tho party U thlH wore Incontrovertlbly true, but ijruvii apprehension Is generally enter tained that It Is not. Tho political club organizations of tho city are taking on new life with noticeable vigor. Committee talk Is be coming Interesting, and faction talk Is moro than usually positive. There Is promlne of exceptional entertainment in tho campaign Just ahead, Senator Simon Is one of the busiest moil lu Washington, lie Is a hard worker naturally. Ills persistent pur Ktill of Important mutters has already made for him a very creditable reputa tion an a member of the great senato rial body. Ilo Ih a good man for Ore i;n. It is now announced that Stale Sen ator llrowuell has a competitor lu tho race for Congressman Tongue's place In tho person of J. 0. Fullorton. Thus Congressman Tongue's chances for a roiiomluatlou Increase. Kullerton, however, is a strong man, and ho en Joyn a better political reputation than llrowuell. Naturalized citizens must show their papers before Clerk Holmes will permit thom to register. Clerk Holmes Is right. Political complications uro promised, however, as a result of this course. They should he met with flrm nosB lu tho Interest of an honest ballot, by tho way; and there Is reason to liollovo that they will be. Councilman J. A. Martin Is being urged by friends to become a candidate on the Multnomah county legislative ticket this year. Mr. Martin has long been a prominent business man of this city, and ranks In the llrst lino among its able and progressive citizens. He Is an able man ami a hard worker for what ho deems to bo tight and Just. Ho would make a strong candidate for the loglslatuio. Tho candidacy of Lawyer George J., Cameron for tho municipal Judgeship Is assuming proportions which ox'clto Interest In certain circles. Mr. Cam- cron is a lawyer of ability and a citizen of estimable character. As a city offi cial he has distinguished himself by his service In behalf of the taxpayers and against the organized coterie of grafters. Should he finally conclude to accept tho nomination for the pollco judgeship, ho will be n hard man to beat. The New Age would like to sco him In that position, GOVERNOR OKKR'S PLIGHT. Dcldcn II. Grant has made aflldavlt that II. B. Plummor's charge that T. T. Goer accepted a bribe of $1,000 for the position of penitentiary superin tendent Is true, nnd that tho deal was made before Goer's election. This gives the sago of a county ranch a bettor chance than ever to got nt his tradticors. If ho fall to avail hlmsolf of tho opportunity thus offered, what must public Judgment bo? Dare ho defy these men in a case against him for crimlnnl libel. This paper has referred to this mat ter frequently because It Is n serious affair. Tho executive ofllclal of a great state like Oregon ought not to permit his name, together with the namo of his party and tho fame of the common wealth ho represents, to be tints smirched by fnlBO charges of gross cor ruption; but, If he refuse to prosccuto those who publicly make tho complnlnt against him, tho people of tho state have boon loft only ono ground upon which to predicate their Judgment. And thnt Judgment will Inevitably bo that Governor Goer Is guilty. Can tho people of Oregon trust such a mnn in such a high place of author ity? The answer to this query, when It conies, will bo painfully dollnlto to Mr. (leer. RI5(!IST13R AT ONCI3. IJvery Negro lu Portland should tako special caro that his namo Is properly registered for tho forthcoming election. It Is tho duty of ovory citizen, white or black, to put himself In position to cxorclh'c his full right as a suffragist lu June next. It Is through tho ballot that wo may reform .public abuses and restrain the aggrdsHlvo corruptlonlst. Tho colored votoiB of Multnomah coun ty have special reason to meet tho Is sue lu the next contest tho Ibbuo lu which they arc particularly concerned as a neglected element In politics In this state. They should, by all moans, tako caro of their right to vote, for at the ballot-box they may help a friend or appropriately dispose of an enemy. This Is their legitimate advantage, and personal as well as popular Interests Miggesl that they avail themselves of It at Ihls particular time. Register early and bo sure that there Is no mistake about tho manner of doing It. --- CARTUR FOR PRHSIDKNT. Tho Republican state league will hold Its biennial meeting lu this city on tho (llli of February. Representative I'J. V. Carter, speaker of tho house of Oregon representatives, Is being urged to accept tho nomination for tho presi dency of that very Important political body. A bettor selection could nut bo made. Speaker Carter Is a very prom inent citizen of tho state and Is presi dent of tho Ashland National bank. Ilo Is alert and active, and would make an excellent executlvo olllcer of tho league. The New Ago would .bo grati fied to see him placed lu that very responsible position. The action of tho Kngllsh govern ment In stripping Its dependencies of all available troops and dispatching to the seat of war Generals Roberts and Kitchener, has shown to the world that the attempted enforcement of their suzerainty lu South Africa has taxed the resources of the empire tremen dously, and left Great Britain lu a per ilous position should any new demand bo made upon her military power. Careful observers see In the outcome of this war a general conflagration, as there are a number of European coun tries that have old scores to settle with Kugland. Fortunately for business, tho "bears" and the "bulls" uro not the only ani mals in tho pasture It is distressing to think what would happen to John Bull If he should pick a quarrel with some follow of his size. Wo don't understand why tho Hon. Champ Clark should light dead men when there are so many llvo ones lu sight. There Is every probability that tho Hon. Moses Wot moro has bitten off moro tobacco factory than tho trust ran buy. Tlioso Reed titles, which prevent In terinluablo talk In tho llotiso of Rep resentatives, nro Just now coming In for a share of tho abuse of the. Demo- emtio members, It will bo recalled j that no scamp ever has much affection for law, and tho wordy congressman does not like to have his verbal privi leges curtailed, even if by doing so the nation's business Is expedited. Just to make Chicago look silly, the New York theater managers will put up tho Blgn, "Stand'ng Room Only," during Its grand opera season. Now that HonrWillianTM. Stewart, of Nevada, has returned to the Repub lican party, It Is about time that Mr. Poffer, of Kansas, should make another move in the same direction, Lawton was too busy attending to his country to make any money. Now It Is the duty of tho country to see to It that his home Is preserved for his family, by helping to pny off the mort gage that Is due, and that his wife gets an adequate pension. Tho British genernls nre said to be In the air most of the time. It Is like wise true that they nre also nil nt bi't. If Dick Crokcr could only become at tached to tho free-silver sinker, Just think what a happy New Year It would bo for a number of New York gentle men. Tho great sprinter of the Philippines Is Agulunldo. He Is still in tho jungles, but his bolo men are fighting like the devil. They nro deceived Into bollov Ing thnt their leader Is still directing their movements, when, as a matter of fact, he has all he can do to direct ills own safely. Hon. Bonjnmln Tillman, of South Carolina, who has a comfortnblo scat In tho Urfltcd StnteB senate, Is willing to wait for the revolution which will restoro tho Democratic party to power. Bon Is In a position to wait, hut It Is awful lonosomo for tho Democratic pol iticians out of jobs. It was during the campaign of 1S9G that that famous phrase, "Open the mills, nnd not tho mints," was first brought Into prominence. Since then tho mills have been opened nnd pros pcrlLy has returned, with tho result that tho activity of tho mills has af fected the mints, which was Just what everybody expected.
