Deep Thought on Vital Topics
Thomas E. Watson recently summed up Democracy in
the following manner:
"In national politics the Democratic party stands with
out a party, a declaration of principals or accepted leader.
It is utterly bankrupt in reputation. It has no unity of
conviction, sentiment or purpose. It contains antagon
istic elements which can never be harmonized. Its secret
purpose is so foreign to what Democratic masses approve
that the eternal struggle of the national leaders is to pre
vent the Democratic masses from 'penetratine that se
cret purpose. What is that secret purpose. To use the
Democratic party in support of the same system of leg
islation that the Republican party stands for."
Or 1. Fitzhagh Lee or the President
"The President is not an enemy to the South, and the
South will not make war on the President. We know
he speaks in excellent terms of the Confederate record
of his maternal uncles, and we know, too, that he has said
General Robert E. Lee was one of the greatest citizens
aad soldiers the world ever produced. I am one of those
who are glad that he will visit the Southern section of the
country, and glad that he will see the Southern people
and that they will see him. Closer acquaintance will
be of service to both and to the country."
Eishop Potter on the Old Testament
"While there is much in the Old Testament that ap
pears out of harmony with the refined and sensitive mod
ern ideas, the book should be judged in the light of the
age and the conditions for which and in which it was
written. What may be regarded as the barbaric touches
in the Testament are really the evidences of the first step
in the growth of ethical ideas and of a great religion be
ginning with a primitive people, but with a lofty develop
ment INDIANS BECOMING SELF-SUPPORTING
Marked advances toward civilization have been made
by the Indians of the United States during the last year,
and the number of those who have been engaged in earn
ing self-support has materially increased, many wholly
supporting themselves and families. The Indian popula
tion has varied but slightly from previous years, the num
ber being about the same as reported last year 270,000.
Of this number 180,000 occupy 156 reservations in the
various states and territories, containing about 55,127,
000 acres outside of the state of New York and Indian
Territory.
The five civilized tribes composed of the Cherokee,
Chickasaw, Choctaw, Creek and Seminole, in the Indian
Territory, number about 84,500, including freedmen, their
reservations aggregating 19,475,614 acres. The New
York Indians occupy eight small reservations in the
northwestern part of the state of New York, having an
area of about 88,000 acres. They number about 5,200,
and receive small annuities in money and goods under
treaty stipulations.
The policy of requiring able-bodied Indians to labor for
their own support, and withholding rations from all but
the needy and indigent, was put into practical operation
in the early part of the year 1902. As a result of the
practical working of this policy the Commissioner of In
dian Affairs, in his annual report for the year 1903, stat
ed that over 12,000 Indians had been dropped from the
ration rolls as wholly self-supporting, many of whom had
never been guilty of work before that time.
WHAT NATION SAVES THE MOST MONEY?
The average amount of money in savings banks per in
habitant is $11 for the world and $37.58 for the Unite
States. The lowest average in any country considered i
in India, where it is but 15 cents. However, several
countries have a larger amount on deposit per inhabitant
than the United States. Denmark leads with the higl
average of $96.41. Switzerland is second with $62.21;
and Mew Zealand is third with $49.61.
In Australia the average Der inhabitant is $4o. 4 1 , in
Prussia $43.10, in Germany $39.98, in Norway $39.94
Germany has more depositors than any other nation, it
total being 15,432,211. France is second., with 11,298
474. The United Kingdom is third, with 11,093,46!
Japan has 7,467,452 depositors, as compared witl
7.305.443 in the United States and 4,950,607 in Russia
including Asiatic Russia.
OUTWITTING THE LAW'S DELAYS.
OREGON PROGRESS RETARDED BY HITCHCOCK.
Hitchcock has singled out Oregon for destruction
its land business and timber business.
The development of whole counties has been arrested
enterprises shut off, railroad construction stopped, and
Oregon blacklisted. He has accomplished nothing but
extension of forest reserves. Big corporations hav
prohted bv lieu land swindles growing out of the miqui
tons reserve policies continued by Hitchcock, while priv
ate individuals have been hounded and persecuted.
All Southwestern Oregon was put under a forest re
serve, to the paralysis of mining development and indus
trial progress. W hen the Hitchcock dictatorship passes
awav Oreeov will come out from uhder a cloud an
blossom with enterprise and development.
Portland, Dec. 25 So ator Mitchell
and Congressman Hermann arrived in
Portland Saturday morning. Benattl
Mitchell met Prosecutor Heney at tl.o
Portland Hotel and demanded to ki ow
tlie charges preferred against him, hut
Heney refused to enlighten him, he
however told the Senator he would lie
given the privilege of answering to the
charges before the grand jury Tuesday.
Senator Mitchell Talks.
Senator Mitchel said :
"1 will not I convicted and no evi
dence can be produced to involve me in
land frauds unless on perjured testi
mony. 1 have always led an honest life,
and 1 have lived too long to engage in
elty thievery. The persons who are
witnesses against me are petjurers, who
have been promised immunity if they
will testify so as to besmirch my charac
ter." "How long will vou stay away fro i
Congress?" was asked.
"I don't know ; a year, if I (shall have
to stav that long to right mv accusers,
longer, if necessary," and the Senator's
tone indicated that he would keep on
staying until the lower regions should
freeze over, and then would tight on the
ice.
"Oregon needs its delegation at Wash
ington just now very ir,ueh," he went
on, "when rivers and harbors are to be
looked after. I am sorry that Mr. Her
mann and I are forced to neglect those
A PRACTICAL VIEW OF IT.
A prominent Lane countv republican take
the following practical view of the land frau
prosecution: "The prosecution in the land fraud cases
as it now appears, is more or less a play in politics
Scott, Moody and Simon are after Mitchell's scalp
as well as Hermann's. Hitchcock wants to hold his place
as Secretary of the Interior. To do this he must smin
Mitchell and Hermann. Heney is put in control of th
prosecution so that the prosecution's case can be
directed. '
Mays, Mitchell's friend and a state senator, is to be in
dicted and the Oregonian, through its tail, the Evening
ins Telegram, is to beirin a fight on Mitchell. Iook out
we shall see something drop."
If you figured anyway in the opposition to the re-elec
tion of Moody to the U. S. Senate, or have been on friend
ly terms with Mitchell and Hermann and are numbered
among their supporters, you had better keep it quiet,
you will be called up before the grand jury by the Hitch
cock-Moody political combine on the charge of "complicity
in land frauds."

The statehood bills will have the attention of Congress
again. The senate committee on territories has re-
potred favorably on the statehood bill admitting Arizona
and New Mexico as one state, and Oklahoma and Indian
Territory as another.

American people.
Yellow journalism may catch the admiration of the
Attorney-General Moody, in his annual report to Con- thof bnt M menifiht realizing its
- ty,a lUh, - JUL. la-a . recklessness and irresponsibility. The Portland journal
law be enacted which will provide that where an indict-1 v
ment is duly returned to a court of the United States the
judge of that court may, in his discretion, issue a bench
warrant for the arrest of the defendants wherever they
may be found within the limits of the United States, and
that it shall be the duty of all persons authorized to serve
such process to arrest the person or persons indicted, and
if they fail after reasonable opportunity to furnish bail
for their appearance, to bring them into the court in
which the indictment has been found.
The Attorney-General' explains that embarrassment in
administering the law has arisen from the inability of the
United States to bring an offender to the place and the
court where, by the Constitution and laws, the accusation
against him must be tried. It frequently happens that
persons accused are not found within the limits of the
district where the offences alleged against them are t li
able. The frequency of such absence increases with the
gravity of the accusation, and where it consists in a con
spiracy almost invariably one or more of the alleged of
fenders are without the jurisdiction of the district. The
possibility of delays and defeats of justice which the
present system affords renders the power of the United
States ridiculous and brings contempt on the administra
tion of the law.

Christmas was very qnielly. but ap

day dawned bright and clear, with the
first crisp frost ol the season, and a little
snow was visible on the crest of the
Coast Range' and foothills of the Cas
cade Mountains bordering on the green
an 1 fertile I'liipqua valley. The day's
festivities partook more of the Thanks
giving spirit than of the merry Christ
mas, owing perhaps to the day falling
on Sunday. Family re-unions and
sumptuous tinners were feature of the
day.
