The spirit of Theodore Roosevelt as it has come to be known through out the land was in the air of Wash ington Saturday. It seems to per meate everywhere to inspire and dominate everyone. Never before has there been a presidential inaug uration that inspired such tumultuous feeling. Never before has the occa sion of a chief magistrate assuming his office been celebrated with such keen, personal enthusiasm, and what is most remarkable of all, never be fore has so vast a throng been in spired with the spirit of its central figure. Amid those many thousands there were after all only a mere hand ful of Rough Riders, and amid it all sitting quietly, bowing, smiling and raising his hat to right and left, the solitary figure of Theodore Roosevelt, the embodiment of personal dignity and modest demeanor, gave no cue of strenuous outburst or of martial ac claim to the wonderful demonstra tions of that eventful dav. EDITOR H0FER TALKS SOME When District Attorney Heney re turns things will be doing in Oregon The trials are now set for June. When he left Oregon he praised the grand jury for being endowed with more integrity of purpose than any body of men he ever met. He praised the Portland press for the loval and substantial manner in which they had assisted the govern ment." It is presumed that if one of the Portland newspapers had not been "loyal" it, too, would have been in dieted, says the Salem Journal. The editor of this paper proposes to attend those land fraud trials, and write a fair and uncolored report of the proceedings. This paper does not assume that it must become a cheap lickspittle as sistant prosecutor in convicting any one, public or private. It assumes that any man or woman is entitled to be considered innocent until convicted beyond a reasonable doubt, and after fair trial. It will publish as a free newspaper a truthful report of of the trials and make such comments as it sees fit on the manner of conducting those trials It will in no manner seek to shield any official or private citizen who may have committed any crime or fraud or helped to violate law, but it will stand upon the rights of a free press to have its own opinions. If, for that course, it is liable to indict ment, let them indict. Luther Burbank, the g reat Califor nia horticulturalist has been called a wonder-worker of science. He has carried on, under the most discourag ing conditions, at least 2,500 experi ments; and he has succeeded in pro ducing: A thornlesa edible cactus, a blackberry without thorns, frost proof fruit trees, the fastest growing tree in the temperate zones of the world, the plumcot, an amaryllis 10 inches in diameter, plums without pits, a chestnut tree which bears at 18 months of age, the smallest calla known, a fragrant dahlia, rhubarb which yields every day in the year, an improved prune, the pomato, and other rare forms. The first of two papers covering his work, written by William S. Harwood, will appear in the March Century. Representative Gray's bill making it a misdemeanor to license any kind of illegal gambling did not become a law in the state legislature as report ed. A slight typographical error in the senate calendar is the cause of ita failure. It will not be an easy matter for the few soreheads in Yamhill county who want to call the referendum on the general appropriation bill to se cure signatures enough for the pur pose. They will get precious little sympathy from the balance of the state, or indeed from the great body of the people of their own county. It is predicted that they will fail of a sufficient number or names to in voke the referendum. It is very cer tain that if they shall succeed in their effort the peopk will sustain the Leg islature at the polls. In this event the soreheads will get the empty sat isfaction of having saddled a large bill of expense upon the taxpayers needlesslv. Of course the monev lenders of Oregon will be quick to sign petitions for the referendum on this million dollar appropriation. They know that all the state institu tions will be run just the same: that state warrants will be issued for the next two years on which they can make a fat thing in discount and in terest. If the -referendum should be put into effect the people who live off the interest they accumulate through just such snaps will draw down at east $150,000 out of the taxpayers' pockets, while the taxpayer will have to foot all the bills. The Goldendale girl who refused to marry fcer lover because he came drunk to the wedding did right. Hut she would have done better had she refused to have anything to do with him when she learned he drank while courting her. If girls would stop marrying men to reform them, there would be fewer unhappy marriages and less for the divorce courts to do. No man was ever reformed by a girl who married him. Girls have been reformed by marriage and let! decent lives ever after, but man never. It is not in his makeup.-Moro Observer. By all means hold up the appropria tions. It will mean the financial em barrassment of the State Normal schools and several hundred thous and dollars interest to the big bank ers, who are the depositories of pub lic funds. They will advance the pev pie's money to carry on the state government, and the people will pay the bill at both ends. Great is the referendum. Southern Oregon is full of aston ishing facts, in agriculture as in oth er lines, so that the things that would cause great comment in most places pass here with little no tice. Ripe blackberries in Februarv, growing in the open air without other protection than the moderation of nature are things which might justly incite wonder, but they are amont.' the Southern Oregon productions this year. A true test of man's integrity comes when he is asked to list his property for taxation. To tell the truth means an actual expenditure of cash. To tell anvthing else means well you will soon have the opportunity to take your choice, and your neigh bors too, will know upon which side you choosed to be classed. Editor H. W. Scott, of the Morning Oregonian, Frank C. Baker, chairman of the Republican State Central Com mittee, and Harry Hildeburn of Rose burg were among the prominent Ore gonians in Washington to attend the inauguration of President Roosevelt Saturday. Mme. Rejane, the frisky French ac tress, declares that American socie ty women are the best dressed in the world." But in some cases either the goods or the money seem to give out before they are little more than half covered. An assessor's census will be taken this year. The state printer has be gun preparing the blanks. A good many inflated populations will then be punctured and water will seek its level. Watch Roseburg's census move several notches up. Commenting on the Cottage t J rove suicide the Leader says: "If Miss Davenport committed suicide as is generally supposed, she was only fol lowing the route which women of her class usually sooner or later take." The whole country regrets and mourns the death of Mrs. Jane Stanford. She was an exceedingly useful woman. She and Mrs. Phoebe Hearst did great good with the wealth left them. lhere was a strenuous inaugura tion of a "strenuous" president of a "strenuous" people Saturday at Wash ington, D. C. The Ladies Home Journal is slash ing patent medicines down one side, up the other and then back again. The czar's salary is $7,500,000 a year and yet there is scarcely anyone who would take his job. The difference botween charity and reform is that charity occasionally begins at home. The Japs evidently don't mean to let the war drag along to suit Russia. LIEU LAND SELEC TIONS PROHIBITED Quite a stir was occasioned in Oregon timber aul public bud circles yesterday on receipt of the following lit of infor nialion from Washington, 1.U. "A prolonged discussion was precip tated by the conference report on a hill prohibiting the selection of tiniln-r lands in lien of lands in forest reserves. The report was agreed to ami the bill was passed. This bill passed the senate Sat urday." After the transaction of other closing routine business both the senate ami house adjourned sine die Saturday and the Kiitv-eiirhth Congress passed into history. GROWING INTEREST IN POULTRY RAISING The Drain Nonpareil savs: The Poul try Association held its regular meetini: last Saturday in the city council room. The interest in this industry is already greater than the most sanguine eect ed to see in so short a time. Messrs. Isaac H . (iardiner and F. S. BanBB are building their yards anu houses and will soon pnt up a good substantial building to be need for hatching during the win ter and for packing eggs in the summer. Other Baeaaben of this association are also making some Beaded improvements. This locality seems to be admirably adapted to the poultry business ami our people are awakening to the fact that there is monev in the business Death of B. B. Brockway. Hon. B. B Brockway. Oregon pioneer ex -commissioner of Douglas county and ex-member of the Oregon legislature, died at his home at Brockwav. 9 miles southwest of Kosehurg, on Thursday March 2, l!05.

Old Pennypacker of Pennsylvania savs he believes the devil is an editor. Some editor must have alleged that Pennypacker is a long-e.irred .juadru ped. Judging from his frequent brays he is a mule's papa, alright.

Verily I say unto you, it will drive dogs out of a I tan yard ; it will drive buzzards away i from a carcass ; it will drive a herd of I buffaloes through a prairie lire, or a mule through a barbed wire fence; it will drive a man crazy if compelled to stay within 20 feet of its polluted pres ence indeed it will drive away ants and uncles too, and mothers, fathers, brothers, sisters and grandmothers even to the seventh generation. Still there are some who claim to like Limburger. The country editor must and does de pend upon bis friends to help make his paper interesting.
