MR. BAKER'S RESIGNATION.
There is not a Republican in the
State of Oregon but deplores the neces
sity behind the reipiution of lion.
Frank C. Baker as chairman of the
state central committee: indeed, their
regret find no parallel except in the
real plca-ure experienced when he took
charge of the party destinies in 1003.
The vigor, intelligence and inviolable
good faith that has marked his every
dealing with the party itiemliership: his
skill, promptitude and daring in the
disposal of the party interests at all
times; the stalwart, ringing results at
tained under hh masterly guidance in
each political season, have all contribut
ed in making this final and unexpected
step a downright loss to the party as a
whole and a matter of personal griev
ance with each and every partisan in the
Webfoot lines. Had there been any sort
of referendum to have intervened, he
would indeed, have found it no easy mat
ter to relinquish the post; and as it is,
those whom he has served with such
constant and loyal service can but wish
him the fulness of ready success in
whatsoever lies ahead of him in a busi
ness way, and be his coming ventures
what they may, if he shall devote to
them the same high and valuable pro
cesses of thought and action that have
inspired his career as state chairman
it will be many a long and prospering
day before he will retire from the ac
tivities that are so essential to his na
ture. With a grateful -etise of aH h
has accomplished for the good of Re
publicanism in Oregon, the Atorian rec
ord it regret and joins the wide con
catenation of thorough good will.

A TRIBUTE TO A DOG.
$6,000,000 NET.
This is the Bum of net profit attained
to by the Oregon Railroad & Navigation
(ximpany during the compass of its la't
fiscal year. A handsome margin, cer
tainly; and one that might better be
appreciated in this neck of the woods, if
it were only felt here that this big sys
tem retained any actual interest in this,
its one great seaboard outlet and termi
nal. But tbe company, for long years,
has so completely and perversely turned
its means and energies away from here,
to expend them in other fields, that the
people of this city may be excused from
finding any comfort in conclusions it
has had no hand in exploiting. There
is no symptom of begrudging in this;
it is the plain tale of ,1 studied neglect
by a factor that should have been among
the first to put Astoria where she be
longs in the commercial scale. Time and
conditions, however, are y et amenable to
the proper adjustment of all that i- due
Astoria, and the realization of her best
and highest accomplishment, may yet be
achieved by agencies utterly foreign to
me one tliat Has so absolutely and te.
terminedly ignored her claim-. So mole
it be.
"tic of the mos f un,, us .pe,vhc. ev.-r
made by the late Senator Vi-t of Mis.
iiiiri was delii i.'d in coui.e uf a tiial
of a man who had wantonly shie a dog
liehmgiiig to a iieighlsir. Ye-t represent
ed the nlaintilT. who demanded ,Joii
1
damages. When Ve-t tiiiia', -peaking,
the jury, after a few minute' deiiln-r.t-tion
.awaided the plaintiir Souo. The
full text of the speech follow-:
" I ientli'ineii of the jury: The Iw-t
friend a man lias in this wmid may turn
against him and become his enemy. His
son or .laughter that he has 1 eared with
loung oar: may prove ungrateful. Those
who are neare-t and dearest to U-, those
whom we tnit with our h.ippine-s and
our good name, may become traitors to
their faith. The money that a man ha
he may lose. It Mies away from him.
perhaps when li needs h mo-'.. man'
reputation may be -a, rilicd in a mo
ment of iH-i'Mi'-Mered action. Th- p-o-pie
who are prone to fall on their knees
to do ih honoi' when Mior.. i, with us
mav he th- first to throw the stone of
malice when failure setth-s its cloud
upon our head". The one absolutely un--ehi-h
liii-nd that man can hae in this
-e!!i-h v.i.iM. the one who m-icr ue-.rt-
him. the one that m-er prme- ungrate
ful or treacherous, is his dog.
"tontlemen of the jury, a man's dog
stands by him in prosperity and in
pov.-rty, in health and in sh-kne-s. He
will sleep on the cold ground, where tin
wintry wind- blow and the snow drives
fiercely, if only he may be near his ma
ter's side. II,. will ki-s the hand that
ha- no food to oiler, he will lick tin
wounds and sores that come from en
counter with the roughness of the world
He guards the sleep of bis pauper mas
ter as if he were a prince. When all
other friends desert he remains. When
riches take wings and reputation fall
to pieces he is as constant in his Un
as the sun in its journey through the
heavens. If fortune drives the master
forth an outcast in the world friendless
and homeless, the faithful dog asks no
higher privilege than that of accompany
ing him to guard against danger, to
fight against his enemies, and when the
last scene of all comes, and death takes
the master in its embrace and his body
is laid away in the cold ground, no mat
ter if all other friends pursue their wav,
there by his graveside will the nob!
dog be found, his head between his
paws, his eyes -ad but open in alert
wntcbfuhie-s, faithful and true even to
death."

One conclusion is inevitable, it wants
the offices, all of them if it can compass
it, part of them, at any event, and it

gave color to the hope that it would

rogues have prevailed over the lunatics.
Mr. f'ockran, however, is not without
hope that the lunatics may recover from
their lunacy and be able to overcome
the rogues, and to that end lie has fram
