Mr. Hermann is an efficient repre
sentative, and worthy of the support
of every republican voter in his dis
trict and of every democratic voter,
too; for democrats, if they could
elect the representative, could no
elect one so efficient, says the'Ore
gonian. As to politics of course
"that's different" Men in large num
bers will act in politics simply from
the party point of view, without re
gard to actual facts or conditions, or
rational considerations. This is the
reason why the vote in Oregon for
Bryan in 1896 was much larger than
that ever cast since for a democratic
candidate, and larger than any vote
likely to be cast for a democratic
candidate during the next ten years.
Since the passing of the silver craze
the democratic party in Oregon has
been phenominally weak. It is able
to allege no reason why it should ex
ist; aoesn t attempt to give any,
Even its negative propositions are
wholly uncertain, changing from day
to day. As to Mr. Hermann, again
The Oregoman has often criticised
him, because he has not been in all
thing as direct and "strenuous" as it
has desired. Yet it knows that he
has been doing excellent work in con
gress, during the past session, and is
more efficient than any new and un
known man possibly could be. Be
sides, he is a republican and a sup-
porter-of.jepubliean policies, and on
republican policies the prosperity of
the country is established. It is ten
years since there was a democratic
house of representatives; and they
who remember the conditions that
prevailed in 1893-4 may well hope an
other ten years will ebipse befori
there is danger, even; of another.
Mrs. Thomas Merrill was . found
drank Wednesday at her home in
Pendletorraf ter a three days' debauch,
Her lO-yearkild daughter had been i
with typhoid fever and Satard ty the
mother discharged the physician
Mre. Merrill refused to call anothei
physician, and in the meantime, the
officers claim, proceeded to drown hei
sorrows by drinking. Neighbors at
tempted to gain entrances, and as n
sigtis of life were shown, suspicions
were .aroused and Marshall Carney in
formed. The officers called at the
Merrill home this evening, and upon
being refused admittance started ti
break the door. Mrs. Merrill almost
too drunk to stand, admitted the of
ficer. The child was almost dead
from lack of care, and was immedi
ately removed to the hospital
No question but the sympathy 'ol
great part of the world, including th.
whole of the English-speaking world
is with JaDan. For it is believer
that Japan has a right to exist, bu.
could not exist, were Russian aggres
sion in Eastern Asia permitted to con
tinue. Russia has no just rightjii
Manchuria or Corea. -She is there
simply as tm intruder ;and figgrtjasot,
and if her career be not arrested she
will swallow both countries. This
would menace the very existence of
span. Possibly Japan may not be
able to avert her fate, but she feels
that she would better perish through
war than to be throttled in peace and
supiness. Ex.
On the first page will be found tht
very latest war news sent out by the
Russian government. The dispatch
is evidently sent out to bblster up
public sentiment in favor of Russia.
The report that a train passed ovei
the Manchurian line to Port Arthur is
false because last week the Russian
government acknowledged that the
Japanese trooDS had destroyed the
ine in three places and burned sever
al bridges. The Czar has evident!
practiced a little more Christiai.
science on the crippled railroad oi
omebody has practiced a vas
amount of humbuggery on him.
Many of the readers of the Plain
dealer will go to St. Louis this sum

and as they will want a good hotel

The export of $128,000,000 in gol.
to Paris during the last week of Apri
brose all weelciy records, in ont
week of January, 1895, $7,700,00C
was shipped, and in November, 1901
$7,329,000 was exported in one ship
A treasure ship truly, but the sailinp
of such a vessel has not yet brought
a shortage of gold for financial and
commercial purposes, though this re-
salt has often been predicted, with
ssjee waggings of the head, by dolefu
prophets of financial disaster an
vould-be thinkers with i ur monetan
ystem.
A pie famine is one of the calami
ties which .Boston has experienced
of late owing to the strike among the
bakers. Fortunately, the disaffection
has not extended to the purveyors of
of beans and codfish. As three arti
cles constitute the standard diet in
that city with a large part of the cul
tured population, the misery which
would be entailed by the cutting off
of the supply of all of them at once
is too heartrendering to contemplate
without emotion.
The registry law should be
so
amended as to apply only in town;
and cities incorporated. It is a bur
den upon dwellers in large and sparse
ly settled districts, who in many cases
are compelled to travel one or even
two days to register, or lose the right
of suffrage.
Postmaster Bancroft fired his chief
assistant last week but the Postmas
ter General reinstated the assistant
by a threat to fire Bancroft. The
affairs of the Portland postoffice
must be in a deplorable condition
when such action as the above is pos
sible.
General Miles Bays the automobile
is destined to be great in war. This
seems reasonable. It may be used
with great effect in running down the
enemy. But it ought to be prohibit
ed among a peaceful people. Ex.
From reports sent out from Wash
ington in the past six months it would
appear that many of the army officers
are rones ana libertines ana engage
themselves to respectable women for
a nefarious purpose.

In 1902 the Republican Congress
m the argent recommendation of
President Roosevelt, passed the na-
.ional irrigation act. Secretary
litchcock has now made public a
tcheme for putting that act in exten
ive operation. In all, something
ver $27,000,000 is to be expended
cor the projects now formulated.
Jhe'ie will cover work in Colorado,
'forth Dakota, Montana, Wyoming,
Jregon, Utah, Idaho, Nevada, Cali
fornia, Arizona and New Mexico,
'hese are comprised in the work
irhich has been alotted about 1,000,
KX) acres. It is figured that this
represents a tract that will be capa-
e of eupportiijg at least 5G0,t)D0
persons.
