FRIDAY MAY 8, 1885
EH.HP irKR ( Vllrt,
Them is a class of men who show
less reason when ths 7 come to determ
ine the value of a newspaper than when
they pass judgment upon anything else.
They seem to be narrow and unyield
ing in their notioss, and imperious in
their demands that the paper must be
conducted to suit them, without any
regard whatever to wkat might or
might not suit the many other readers
of the paper. Each individual should
remember that the very thing which
displeases him so very much may ho the
very thing which pleases hundreds of
other readers the most. A newspaper
is not conducted alone for the benefit
and edification of a single individual,
but for the benefit and edification of
hundreds and thousands of readers, A
public school is not run for the benefit
of one or two pupils, but for all the
pupils of the whole district. There are
many things which we do not approve
about the management of a school dis
trict or a school, but shall we do away
with it for that reason ? Certainly not
We may not approve all the miaiater
may say, but shall we refuse to attend
services for that reason ! We may and
very generally do find occasion to criti
cise the conduct of the political party
to which we belong, but is that ground
i r the position that we should have no
parties, or thac we should not affiliate
with any of them t
The class of men spoken of above is
growing leas in numbers day by day as
liberality of thought and freedom of
opinion assert their mild but legitimate
dominion over the minds of men. The
newspaper at all times must give ex
pression to public opinion, but there
are times when it must be aggressively
bold and courageous in dealing with
public evils, and in doing this our read
era should remember that "leading
maketh a full man, conference a ready
man, and writing an exact man."

The United States Commissioner of
Pensions on April 28th, directed the
suspension at the Philadelphia agency
of 102 pensions, which have bean regu
larly paid, although the pensioners are
dead. In some cases, the Commission
er sajs, the persons in whose names the
pensions are drawn, have been dead
since 1871. He has also directed the
suspension, at the same agency, of the
pensions of the seven widows who re
married in 1861 , but who base continu
ed to draw their pensions ever since.
The Commissioner has asked the Attorney-General
to bring suit against the
pension agent for the money thus unlaw
fully disbursed. Still we are told by
republican papers "that after a thorough
sifting no frauds have been found'
a reacM,
Mr. Joseph M. Fulton, postmaster at
New London Pennsylvania, has been
arrested for embezzling government
funds. An investigation shows that he
is short in his accounts to the amount
of $2247. And yet we are told by our
republican contemporaries that "it is a
matter of which republicans may well
feel proud that under the new demo
cratic administration there has been a
thorough sifting and no frands have
been found and not a cent of govern
ment funds but what have been faith
fully accounted for."
THE. MOILT MIX.
Judge Deady has decided the late
law of the legislature.regulating freights
and fares on the railroads, as constitu
tional in the main. That part of the
law fixing passenger rates at 4 cents per
mile is sustained, upon the ground that
4 cents per mile is reasonable, and not
upon the gronnd that the legislature
has the power to fix an absolute rate.
That provision of the law which prohis
bits, railroads from charging a greater
rate for carrying similar property a
a short haul than for a long one in the
same direction is not sustained.
WILT THEKE BE WAS T
Pur the last month Russia and Eng
land have been alternating between
peace and war. Dispatches Indicate
that an agreement of peace may be
patched up but it is somewhat doubtful.
A man who becomes a political out
cast in the republican party because o
his treachery to that party, and then
rushes off and proposes to democrats
that he wi.i support their candidate for
president on condition that he is to re
ceive the appointment to a certain fed
eral office and whose proposition is "de
clined with thanks" seems to think
that be is thus peculiarly qualified to
run an independent newspaper.
It looks from present appearances as
if this country bad entered upon a long
career of Democratic progress. The
new Administration has started ont
well. The expectations of the country
have been met, and the feeling is grow
ing that the change in government poli
cies was made just in time,
A couple of gentlemen were discuss
ing the politics of a certain independ
ent editor when one remarked that he
was neither pig nor puppy, when be
was met by a rejoinder from the other
that the said editor was both.
The Sunday Welcome says there is a
prevailing feelieg that John Myers of
Oregon City will be the next XT. S.
Marshall for Oregon.
WO MFFEl E,
A young gentleman just starting out
into the world to fight its battles un
aided and alone, writes to us that he is
inclined to look into political matters
and wants to know if there is really
any ground for the claim set up by
many Republican leaders as to the
"superiority of Republicans over Dem
ocrats in point of intelligence, morality,
devotion to educational and scientific
progress, patriotism and exemplary
citizenship. " If our correspondent was
not young and inexperienced in the
ways of the world, we would be coca
polled to express our great surprise that
one who seems to be so earnest and
candid about the whole matter had not
been able by a little reeeatob, compari
son and reasoning, to find a satisfactory
solution to this question. Human
nature is much the same the world over.
Meus political views are generally
traceable to the influences brought to
bear upon their minds when young.
Much of political bias can be traced to
the early education of him who kmsoss
es it. No, men are not necessarily
good nor necessarily bad because they
belong to the Democratic or the Re
publican party. Oar young friend.who
appears to be devoted to our public
school system, soys Democrats are
charged with being opposed to the sys
tem, or at least unfriendly to it. We
assure our young friend there is not a
scintilla of truth in toe obsrge, though
it has often baen made. Yeara before
the Republican party had an existence
a Democratic congress was passing
laws to secure the 10th sections of all
townships of the publio lands for school
purposes. The Democratic party was
teaching patriotism, both by precept and
example, in 1812-14 when those polit
ical teachers and leaders who, in after
times organized the Republican psrty,
were doing everything which they could
well do, to thwart the government io
its attempt to defend Americsn rights
against the unjust and domineering
encroachments of Great Britain. Un
der ether circumstances such couduct
would have been called treasonable.
No, the patriotism of the American
people is not confined to the Republican
party. The man who telle you that all
morality, intelligence and decency are
confined either to the Democratic or
the Republican party would deceive
yon and is not to be trusted. There
are certain great leading principles
which divide the Democratic and Re
publican parties, and you should in
quire into these to determine for your
self whether you will affiliate with the
one or the other of these parties.
