By Chauneey Thomas. "A great Fourth, sahl A great Fourth! A glorloua Fourth!" ex claimed the Colonel aa he aank Into his ohalr in "The Colpnel'a corner" on the Hotel Portland veranda. "The Fourth of July," said the New Torker slowly, a he withdrew his ci gar from hi lips, "The Fourth of July should be celebrated with crepe. It should, be the one day of American Bor row and chagrin" ' "What' that!" demanded the West erner, while the Colonel sat speechless. "Simply this," continued, the New Torker, calmly, "The Fourth of July and all it stands for instead of freeing America from England in reality freed England from America, If it were not for the Fourth of July. that is, the successful outcome or tne American revolution, riaht today Kncland and America would be one nation, with the capital in America.

Granting for the moment that such was the case, who is there who could successfully maintain that the political control of such a vast domain would have re mained long In London? It would Ion aao have shifted to this side of the Atlantic. "The Fourth of July cost America the control of over half the English HDeakina world.

We know now that the common opin ion of it that has lasted for over a century is not founded on fact; It grew up aa a weed-idea, to coin a phrase out or tne wrong" teacnings or the school histories, which were lareelv written ana DUDiisnea in Boston. Ana Boston, you know, considers herself the hub of the universe. She won the rev olutionary war. -she did everything. don't you know" "True, sah, true!" Murted out the Colonel. "If It had 'not been for Bos ton there probably would never have been a civil war --' .-' "But more of that later. Interposed the Westerner. "What were you say ing. Father Knickerbocker, about the revolutionary war?" - "That war," went on the unperturb able New- Torker, "was not a war be tween the' people of America and the people of England; It was a common cause In arms of the common people on both sides of the water agalnat George the Fourth.

"That, sah." replied the Colonel, "that sah. is another story.

CHINESE ABBESTED IN BAID ON JOINTS The 'Chinatown aauad". consisting of Acting Detective Kay and Kien- len made a successful raid on a Chinese gambling joint at 131 Secdnd street be tween Washington and Alder streets.

At first the Chinamen refused to fur nlah hall for Poland but when riven the alternative of putting, up $100 for the two or $75 for all three, after a lengthy discussion they decided they would risk . the white man's ball in order to make a present saving of $25. iieui - waa aiso aecureo. , Cake and causea dissension In the camp. xne entrance or Mumev into tne sen atorial race has weakened the Cake cause, according to the political teach ers, for the reason that both men are supposed to draw much strength from the same sources.

Many political' nronhets are nolntlnc their fingers to Fulton as the most probable Republican nominee at the next primary election. The senator ha been hard at work in the Interior of the state and will continue his cam paign until called back to Washington by the opening of congress. His cause nas Deen greatly strengthened through out eastern Oregon by his forest re serve policy,' in which he took issue witn Roosevelt in support of the in terests or me uregoa settlers. It is argued that, this Increased strength, and popularity throughout the Interior Duts Fulton in tha lead over all other Republican candidate in that part of the state. Multnomah county is senator f uuonu weakest point. If therefore, the Multnomah county and up-vauey vote ;s SDUt un bv several candidates such as Cake, Mulkey and U'Ren, It will mean that eastern and Interior ' Oreson will hold the halanna or power wnicn. -oeing Fulton in tend ency, nvlll insure the renomination of the present Incumbent.
