THE COMMITTEE AND OREGON A variety of bloods Is nec essary In nations as well as ln families, for the health and well-being; of the race. Fr Joseph Roux. T MIT.HT bo well for Chairman Hitchcock and Ms assistants In Oregon, In the Interest of Mr. Taft, to realize the fact (hat It Is not the small minority f Pino crats but a largo proportion of the Republicans of Oregon as well, that adopted and are htnnclltig by the pri mary law, the election of senators by the people, the Initiative and refer endum, and direct legislation. It was the people of Oregon, Itepub- lleans as well as Democrats, that turned down Fulton hecau.se he op posed Statement No. 1. and that also turned down Cake, because he failed to utantl by that statement; nd there Is no Indication that the people of this state have changed their mind on this proposition. They are determined to elect their sen ators, and they are not worrying over or regretting their choice. Most Republicans of Oregon are doubtless pretty well satisfied with Taft as a presidential candidate, but many of them will properly resent Intorfor- nee with this state's nffalrs by the Republican national committee, even if Senator Fulton advises such Inter fo renof. Let the committee attend to It business of trying to hold the K puhllean voters to Taft, and by proper means getting all the votes they can for him, to which nobody can object; but the committee will do Its cause far more harm than good by taking up Senator Fulton's grievance and trying to break down our primary law, our system of di rect leglslttlon, and the. election of .senators by the people. There are thousands of Republican voters who will not stand for that. SENATOR FULTON MISTAKEN" TN AN Interview with a represent atlve of The Journal yesterday I Senator Fulton said: "The question as I view It as to whether or not I will become a can didate before tho legislature for re election la not important and I am giving it no consideration whatever The question is shall a state with a large Republican majority thor oughly committed to and believing In Republican principles and pol icies, be represented In the Fnited States senate by a Democrat? So far as I am concerned I do not hesi tate to say that I think it should be represented by a Republican; by one who will represent the political convictions of a large majority of the Toters of this state." Senator Fulton Is mistaken as to what "the question" Is, if the poli ticians are determined to raise a "question" with reference to the senatorshlp next winter. The ques tion will be: Shall the people's will charge of bird shot, presumably at a fowl, and one or two of the shots reached the vessel and struck but did not Injure one of the party. There is no evidence that anybody was shooting at Mr. taft, and the story that he was shot at was a pure fabrlcat Ion. INDEPENDENT VOTERS NEEDED. A' T)e done and their law be obeved? This will be the paramount ques tion, and those who do not respond to It affirmatively, especially if they are pledged and oathbound to do 60, will be as politically dead as Bene ' diet Arnold ever after. Senator Fulton, after tbe habit of politicians, puts party first, the peo ple after or, rather, the people are not considered at all. Since the people of Oregon, Republicans and Democrats together, have decided the senatorshlp and instructed the legislature, and have by a great ma jority adopted a law declaring that their action shall be decisive, there Is no further "question" properly to come before the next legislature. It Is not for Senator Fulton nor any body else to arrogate to himself the prerogative of saying that the peo ple of Oregon cannot choose a Demo crat for senator and elect other Re publican officers. This they have done, and they have, or should have, that right, and any efforts of Sen ator Fulton to overthrow that re Bult will most certainly Injure his party and its candidates, from Taft down. STILL MORE INHARMONY. HOW difficult, how impossible, is harmony in a big-majority party when each of its factions is determined to construct a machine that will command a cam paign fund and grind out profitable (spoils. Even within the newspaper pur Ileus of the tall-tower building the political noises are rasping)- in harmonious, the'' bead of the news paper trust growling one tune and the tail squeaking another, some thing unprecedented, and indicating that In this conflict over "prin ciples" as productive of campaign boodle even the Oreqonlan family can't maintain harmony. The morning issue dictatorial!)- V ; A ' F ' " , A1"" " does no pood, only hel biiiii ui v. naji man v. a k e , ana less openly as yet, the defeat of Cham- i berlain next winter. It has appar- j ciiii uuc iv( .oujin it . v , ior trie (-j if present, to the Fulton machine, with , ( ,.r an eye to the Hitchcock sac k, and ' ri, ,rjrtj with a view beyond that, to an old- ' time, free for all scramble In the next legislature; while the evening Issue champions Cake, warns Repub licans that his elimination would cause a wide, deep breach, and In-r.lf-ts that Chamberlain must be ek ctc d. Whether this curious divergence is the result of a stubborn different! Of opinion bet wet n the editor-in-chief a:,d the btiMnesg office, or Is .only a shrewd maneuver to keep In favor with both sides and with tbe fcack-holdet in sn ci i,!, i un certain; but there ran be nn doubt that everjthir.g Is said and don over there with a view w the main- ' ten a nee of the (treat ' historic prln-j come or will have become obsolete, VIEW of the party leadern In the great state of New York does not conduce to a favor able opinion of "government by parties." It Is true that owing to peculiar circumstances the Repub lican party was forced against the will of its leaders to nominate Hughes for governor, and will have to do so again, but they hate him, and would beat him If they could. He is not of them, despises them, and In their estimation is not a Re publican. It was an exceptional case that, owing to his prosecution of the insurance scandals, he be came so strong tnai me leaner could not defeat him and it ought to be a lesson to the people every where (hat they can beat their party bosses and machines if they will se lect the right sort of a candidate and make an effort to assert their power. Governor Hughes, how ever, does not tako much of a band in politics, and In sending delegates to the Chicago convention, and in most political activities, the corrupt machine bosses still have their way. It ! they who, probably, will dic tate the nominees for the legisla ture and eolect tho next United States senator. He may be an Im provement on Piatt, but If the party bosses have their way he will not be a representative of the people to any appreciable extent. The Democratic party is, If pos sible, under even more disgraceful domination, that of Boss Murphy and his vulgar, detestable, tool, "Fingey" Connors. Murphy s i;oie object is the spoils of tho city of Creator New York, and no thought if Connors ever rises higher than boodle. And It is such creatures as these that the Democrats of .New- York allow to head and control the party organization. Connors talks about whom be will nominate for governor and send to the senate. Murphy smiles, knowing that it Is he, not Connors, who will select candidates. The hundreds of thou sands of Democratic voters have no more voice In the matter than If Ihev lived in Canada. And this Is the boasted control by party organ ization. If the Independence party ever grows to amount to anvihing more than hurting Bryan some, it will be the same. It. too, will have its or ganization, its machine, Its bosses, spoils and plunder being the object. I What is neo-ded is not independent parties, but independent voters, mil lions of intelligent, partlotlc men who are Republicans today and liemociats tomorrow, or vice versa, if the party to which they have ad hered does not fairly fulfill expecta tions, keep promises and serve the pi ople. A multiplicity of parties the bigger of the- two tiig parties; a multipliclty of Independent voters who will dis i iplii.e t,;e dominant paity by put- next strongest party in occasionally Is what is subterfuge, no sophistry, no falsely pretended new discoveries, no excuse that any ringleader or unconsclon- ji bio editor can invent, will excuse them from keeping that pledge. In other respects they are free to do as they please; they may ally themselves with whatever faction they choose; they may stand by Cake or follow Fulton; they may vote as suits them on organization; but tho senatorshlp question, by the people's votes and the positive, sol emn pledge of about 50 members, is settled. All these assumptions that it is not settled amount to insinua tions that some unidentified mem bers are going to prove baso liars to nnd betrayers of tho people who have honored nnd trusted them. The Journal declines to believe that there nre any such men among them.

THE PEOPLE ARE POWERLESS IN THE COURJS in t' will la. Temple Craven has been ach ftct Home notoriety for u good A EXPERT OPINION'. R. GEORCF J. GOULD ts quoted as saying: "The re versal of the enormous fine imposed on the Standard Oil company by Judge Landis will go far toward restoring foreign con fidence In American securities and advancing American credit abroad. I am hopeful of the future and also believo that Tnft should be elected." Mr. Gould is logical and candid. Standard Oil is the biggest of the predatory "interests." They are all allied; their "groups" harmoniously cooperate. Their object Is to make enormous profits at tho people's ex pense, and to secure and maintain laws and administrations that will enable them to fix prices and so make these profits as large as they please. In effect, this amounts to the power In the hands of a few groups of corporations of unlimited taxation of the whole people. The government has the power of unlimited taxation, and the govern ment Is theoretically the people. But only theoretically. It has be come or Is becoming in fact these corporations. President Roosevelt has himself said so. In effect. Hence a few very rich men are to have this power, one clearly tending practic ally to enslave the masses. Speaking for all these interests, Mr. Gould frankly says: "I believe that Taft should elected."

I he reversal of the decision of Judgo l.andla which Imnoned a fine of 129,--40.000 upon the Bluiulurd Oil company of Indium comes as a shock to thu Kreat majority of the people. Th be lief amount to knowledge that the Pin out trust and all lta offspring have been guilt v throughout many years of Innumerable offenses of like character to thofe unon which tlvese proceedings were based. Therefor nentlment wuh practically unanimous that substantial Justice had been done by the lower court mid the fine was not evceMslve Startling charges now are made that somu of the main reaming jmairiAH fur the reversal are based on nilmiiiniatliiiia ui inn proceedings at the rirst trial. Aside) from these, however, other legal reasons given for overturning ih I .mi. urn decision appear to the lay mind to he of great force notably tho reckon ing or each carload as a separate ship ment, which la contrurv to commercial custom. Hut even the rrantlnr that everv technical reason favored the defendant corporation would not carry tho belief to any nnnu ttiat the Standard OH com pany was Innocent. On the contrary. the grounds of defense successfully chosen only serve as greater proof of sunt, as usual, it reared to meet a right of principle. As usual, It fell hack upon the cunning and the trickery that always prove Its serviceable weap ons. It Is a sad commentary on the Incom petence of the country's legal machinery to cope with the skilled chicanery of the legal advisers of unscrupulous com binations of capital. A powerful of fending corporation stands convicted before the whole world of crime against the public welfare. Not an Individual, in or out of the trust, but knows Its guilt. It is branded criminally by the unanimous verdict of public opinion. It Is u condemned felon at the bar of every court save the law courts of the land. Yet we see such a corporation seek ing nnd finding sanctuary In the very laws which the people passed with the Intention of punishing just such offenders. It Is the old story. The simile we tiHve used often must servo again. The tahrlc of the laws or cities, states nnd nation alike has not yet been woven with sufficient strength to hold wrong- loers possessed of great political or moneyed power. It emphasizes the fact that hitherto new plana of craft and cunning enab ling; these powerful combinations to es cape the law have been made more rap idly by their shrewd lawyers than leg islation has been able to move In over taking uittm.

During the past month Pendleton has been the same bustling little city It has always been. True, the police court lias been ouiet. for there have been prac tically no arrests since the first of the month. A few men have left town and people traveling Main streot no longer see the, drunken, blear-eyed faces that once stared at them from the saloon fronts. Some of tho saloon locations are, still unoccupied. But business ln general has been good. Merchants have found that the town Is not mined. A few customers may have been lost, but for thin tho store men are recompensed by t lie fact that those won remain have more money to spend with them There are scon s -of men In this town who are now buying dry goods and groceries with money which they formerly squnpdered In saloons to the neglect of, their loved ones and their own degradation.
