SENATOR MITCHELL'S COVETOUS CRITICS
There is evidently a politician or two in Oregon who
are decidedly ambitious to step into Senator Mitchell's
shoes. This fact was demonstrated lately in the bicker
ings of the Salem Statesman and its honest, and private
convictions publicly expressed, that John H. Mitchell
should have promptly responded to that subpoena or call
to come to Portland and submit a lot of immaterial testi
mony in the land fraud case. It appears rather queer
that the Statesman should be the only newspaper in Ore
gon to take this view of it but let us see! Is not one
Theodore Thurston Geer now editing that paper? And
does not Theodore have a decided hankering to succeed
the Hon. John H. Mitchell in the 0. S. Senate? There is
a suspicion that he does, therefore he could hardly be ex
pected, from a selfish political standpoint, to overlook or
miss an opportunity to cast a slight reflection upon the
senior senator, or frankly admit that he was not doing
just the proper thing in remaining at his post of duty at
a most critical time instead of coming all the way back to
Oregon to submit a little unimportant and immaterial tes
timony. These criticisms of Senator Mitchell certainly
do not come with good grace from the Statesman, but
smack decidedly of intrigue and peanut politics. In the
meantime Senator Mitchell has been advanced to a great
er position of usefulness to the West and is even booked
for the chairmanship of the Panama Canal committee. He
can therefore withstand small attacks from the rear with
the greatest equanimity. Senator Mitchell by his excel
lent record, his ability and commanding presence has at
tained an influence and esteem in the United State? Sen
ate enjoyed by few Western Senators, and the people are
convinced that he is doing more for Oregon than anv of
his covetous critics or detractors ever have done or will
ever be able to do.
NO EXTRA SESSION OF CONGRESS
No extraordinary session of Congress will be held next
spring for a revision of the tariff. That has been de
cided detmitely. The question of an extraordinary ses
sion next fall is in abeyance.
President Roosevelt has announced this decision and
said he had abandoned any idea of calling Congress into
extraordinary session in the spring as it did not seem
practical to hold a session for tariff at that time. He
indicated, however, that he might call a session for next
fall, although no absolute determination of that point has
yet been reached.
Ia view of this decision, the President told Represen
tative Cooper, of Texas, that he had decided to make ;
Southern trip next spring.
The emotional) gush and flapdoodle about Nancy Patter
son is increasing the disrepute into which the jury trials
have already fallen. The divorced woman on trial for
murder of a married lover is tenderly alluded to as an in
nocent girl, and flowers, money and oners of marriage
are carried to her cell. One trial has already miscarried
by a sensitive juror becoming suddenly incapacitated
And now this simple minded creature informs the world
that she doesn't want any old men on her jury. Is justice
impossible when the prisoner at the bar can get her eyes
upon an impressionable jury? ,
MRS. CHADWICK A SPENDER.
For weeks the papers have been full of the sensational
money-borrowing of Mrs. Chadwick, of Cleveland, Ohio
upon alleged indorsements of Andrew Carnegie, reaching
SL250l000. and wrecking one bank completely. How did
the money go? We have all wondered. Here is how
some of it went under her somewhat extravagant tastes:
Gave eight grand pianos as I hnstmas gifts to ac
quaintances.
Took twelve Cleveland, Ohio, girls to Europe for a va
cation. Gave to each girl a gold framed miniatare portrait
painted in Paris.
Presented her cook with a sealskin coat.
Purchased diamond rings by the job lot.
Filled her home with priceless imported furnishings
Sent a jeweler 12.400 miles to buy a $30,000 diamond
ring.
A great spender, you will say. Yes, of other people's

that lieorge Boreaeon had lieen a party

this it is rumored that two members of

prominent persons will bo called upon

for the reconvening of the grand jury

LECTURE BY
BICKNELL YOUNG
SENATOR MITCHELL HONORED.
At the opening of ths Senate Wednesday the announce
ment was made of committee changes to take etfect l'ec.
15, and Senator Mitchell, of Oregon was given the chair
manship of the interoceanic canal committee to fill the
vacancy caused by the death of Senator Hanna, the for
mer chairman.
Senator Mitchell stated later that he is much gratified
at his assignment as the chairman of the committee, and
denies emphatically that there has been any controversy
in the matter or fight by him to secure it. The committee
is an important one in its relation to the Pacific coast in
terests and Panama canal affairs.
The change gives Mitchell the committee-room of the
late Senator Hanna and the patronage of a clerk and as
sistant. Senator Alger succeeds him as chairman of the
committee on coast defenses.
In a recent address to the students of Brown Univer
sity, Providence, R. L, Baron Kanekosaid Japanese people
have three peculiar characteristics, originality, thorough
ness, and adaptability. These have enabled Japanese
civilization to be brought to a level with that of Western
countries. The Japanese received thoroughness from
the Germans, and praticability from the Anglo-Saxon
race. In Japan the present war is considered to be a
contest which wiil determine whether despotism, tvrannv
and ignorance, or Anglo-Saxon civilation shall prevail in
the far East.
Hardly a stranger visits Roseburg but what speaks con
demnatory of Roseburg's light system, the incandescent
lights in particular, while there is repeated complaints on
the part of patrons regarding the insufficient water sup
pry, resulting from breaking mains or frequent, but per
haps unavoidable, accidents in the plant. Nevertheless,
all this conspires to create dissatisfaction on the part of
patrons, and an unfavorable impression of the service on
the part of visitors, which lends substantial encourage
ment to the movement looking toward municipal owner
ship of both'water and light plants in Roseburg.
It may be six months yet before the chief engineer of
the Panama canal Mr. Wallace, will be able to report
what can and should be done. There are now 500 men
working on the big cut, but whether there will be a series
of locks, or a tidewater canal, cannot be determined for
the present. By the first of February it is expected that
200 dredeemen will be operating GO steam shovels on the
great ditch. The engineers will receive $190 a month
and the crane men $165.
S. S. McClure, proprietor and editor of McClure's Mag
azine, has made a compilation showing that the Boer war
cost the British 22,000 lives, and that during the past
three years there have been 31,395 murders in thel'nited
States, and 21,847 persons killed on the railroads in the
United States during the same period.
Collier's Weekly says: "The prune is one of nature's
most estimable arrangements. Salubrious to man, ration
al in price, and associated with our national history, it is
a dish for which every true American should nourish
emotions of fidelity and pride." The Collier Weekly Editor
most have got hold of a choice box of the Douglas county
variety and brand.
"Hit the Trail," is the catchy phrase that the Lewis
and Clark Centennial management is rising "the Trail"
will be Portland's successor to the Chicago "Midway" and
the "St Louis "Pike."
Already some state legislatures have been petitioned to
pass laws prohibiting football. During the past season
14 players nave been Killed and yo nurt. it is a ques
tion whether the game is not as barbarous as a bull fight
which no humane American would patronize under any
consideration.
