DRMOCHATS UNITED. 0 NE SWALLOW, nor two swal lows, do not make n summer, but they Indicate summer's approach, and when Judge Parker and De Laneey Nlcoll cheer fully accept InvltatlonR to make speeches in behalf of Bryan, during their vacation, It is soma Indication that a Rood many New York and other eastern men who have been against Bryan heretofore because they thought him too radical and . tiiftafe will he for him this fall. Nlcoll Is a type of many eastern Democrats who went to the extreme of voting against Bryan In 1 R 9 0! and 1900, but who will vote for him next November. Enough such men, added to a good many Republican malcontents, may give New York and New Jersey to Bryan. It is too early to make prediction of this re sult, but quite as strange things have happened. Curiously, or at least interesting ly, Mr. Nlcoll and many others will support Mr. Bryan for reasons op posite to or very different from those that will prompt most, others who vote for him to do so. The ma jority of Democrats, as well as of the rank and file of Republicans, : approve as a wuuie itooseven pol icies and administration; but these pastern Democrats are onposed to Roosevelt and his policies, and his wife's companionship merely to save all Ms properly for his grown up i hi Id ri n'.' lie has rained and educat ed i hem, has put Hum In the way of a Miri'etisf nl career, him by in dusti.v and ability iiecuiniilHted n competence, and when nt 70 he finds himself companlonlesH ho should Ve perfectly free to do whatever will make for his comfort and happiness d'li i n the little time tie hns to live; and truly filial children should re Joii e In whatever helps to make the end of life pleasant for him.

Meyeis of Saiein, whom his sons hud arrested and thrown In jail because he was about to marry a woman 4." enrs old, and with whom ho had been acquainted for lit years. It seems that this Is the first that has been heard of Mr. Meyers belli In sane, that he is so regarded by hU sons solely because he decided to marry. Assuming this to be true, that he is really as sane as the aver age business man of that age, this treatment was clearly n most un filial and unwarranted proceeding, not to say an outrage. A man of 70 has as good a right to gain what happi ness he ca.n as a man of T0 or 3 0. and he also has a right to spend or dispose of his property as he sees fit. and perhaps Inevitably drift Into al- llancea and policies Inimical to the Interests of the masses.

But If thin happens. It Is because the people are getting more political power anil learning better how to use It. and the result will be that the I party In power will take greater heed to please and nerve the people. For some years past It was Mifflclont for success to please and Herve the or ganized and powerful few; it will be a very good thing Indeed If a party learns, even through chastisement, that It is necessary to Its continued success to please and serve the com mon many.

Of all the problems to which the human mind has addressed itself, navigation of the air seems to have presented the greatest difficulties. Its solution, however, has been the dream of man from the beginning. As another has remarked, the flii-t Image of his conception of Cod carved on stone, was a man with wings. When the poet has dipped into the future, he has seen flying armies of men at war in the sk,y. From the ancient age when men first, had day dreams, they have seen themselves like birds, sweeping through the air in headlong and un- I T IS to be hoped that the develop ment league meetings to be held In the Willamette valley, prelim inary to the "congress" at Coos bay, will bo well attended, and that more interest than ever before in de velopment work will be manifested. This ought to be assured, for cer tainly several If not most Willamette valley and southern Oregon towns are alrendy feeling the beneficial re sults of concerted efforts for devel opment, and all Indications point to signs are ' increasing development and still greater results therefrom lis I lie fu ture. People are discovering as they never had done before bow much they can ilp of and among them selves, and that liberal expenditure of efforts and money will pay. All western Oregon needs electric rail ways and Is beginning to get them. It needs good roads, and the people are going after them. It needs more intensive farming, and irrigation, and these will come. By concerted, harmonious efforts In ihese direc tions, the people will be astonished to discover what they can accom plish In a few years. Hut Interest must be kept up, and the way to do this is to attend and take a lively Interest in these league meetings. The president of the Willamette valley leagues, Mr. E. Holer, is diligent and enthusiastic, checked flight. Some way, it was mid overflowing; with knowledge of methods, and are especially opposed Inherent impulse of the human mind to Taft because he Is regarded as , Roosevelt's inheritor and imitator. Out here this rather makes in Taft's favor, or- would if It were I bought that Taft could effect anything' by attempting to work with the Roose velt policies; but It is not believed that he could do so if he would, as long as the Republicans control both houses of congress. He would prob ably attempt little and accomplish nothing. Out west Roosevelt sup porters don't rely much on Taft; in New York voters are against him be cause they fear he might he like Roosevelt. So Democrats get to gether through the process of ex tremes meeting. Aside- from these Democrats who i differ so widely that they agree, are in indefinite number of hitherto Republican voters who have become practically independent, who don't like the record of their party, Mho feel that it is a time for a change, who are no; afraid of Bryan as they i:sed to be. and who from one cause or another are dissatisfied, who will for the firs: rime vote for the Com moner.

"With capitals to give em phasis, he asks somo questions and makes some statements worthy of seri ous thought. What Are Yon Doing; About Proaperlty? Are you doing something yourself to bring it back, or are you just watching to "catch it when It comes round aealn?" Kverybody should do something, even if It Is nothing but buying n new shirt, If you've got the wherewithal to buy it. to help to start again the wheels of trade and Industrial activity. How ninny dwellers In the small cities, towns and villages are there who are willing t.i do something themselves to end the Industrial depression thai bus seltled over the country? An organized movement will bring prosperity in short order, provided the farmers are willing to lead that move ment. Vou can't restore prosperity by "hol lering" prosperity Vou can't restore prosperity by start ing factories and making things unless somehod v . uses tlrfm. The only way p''osPerity can be re vived is by using tilings that soniebiHlv makes, and eating something thai some- j bode raises. 1 Vhen the farmer slops using things ' ll.e factory must st op ma k Ing t h-m. j f , ., hor F.pm,d of the poSon of Indus- by an active exchange of commodities between producer and consumer. The farmer holds the key with which to regulate IJiut activity. If every farmer would realize thnt his own salvation depends on restoring proaperlty to the entire country and to all classea or citizens, the ranners would have In their own himds the power to nave themselves and the coun try from any continuance or the tie prossiiin. If the movement oould be made gen eral with farmers, as aoon nn thin year crops are nil harvested, to enter upon a great movement for farm improve ment, and the replenishment of all farm supplies, right now. It would not be HO days before the hard tlmeH would be over. If vou have been pluming to build a ui'w bouse, nnd tvave tne money avail able, do it now. If a new barn, or a granary, or an outhouse, or a fence, of a gate, or any thing else needs to be built to put the farm In the lilgnest condition, aa it now. Don't Juat "get along" and do nothing lint 1 another venr. If vou nave the money necessary to make any needed or desired or contemplated improvement do It now. If the house needs painting, or will need It aoon, don t put off the work Do It now. If the barn needs a new roof, or a coat of paint or whitewash, or farm hulldlnes need repairs, do It now. tio over the place from end to end and put everything In order; where the fence needs new wire tr new posts or the gate a new hinge, thin t put otf fix Ing lt;do It now. T.et everv farmer make It bis hiiRl ness to wake up the people of the town where he trades, so thev wilt get busy with the improvement of the town, and do it now. Wherever there are none now, hulld new sidewalks, better streets, pavement for the business streets, a public library, a church, a town hall, a village room, a sewer system am sanitary arrange ments of all kinds, and above all things "s.-u.-o up"; Taint the schoolhouse and the church; let the merchant paint his store, the hotel keeper his hotel, the householder his house, and evoryhndy palnt the front fence, and everybody clean up; pull down every old shed and old fence and replace with new and do it now. The way to restore prosperity is to "get busy" doing things that will have a permanent value when they are dune. 1 The RLALM FLMININE, Kvery farmer who Joins the move ne nt haves money for himself, twice ov.r He gets the benefit of lower t how prevailing and m events (tie and then the worker in the factory must stop eating, and the farmer must stop furnishing him his fijhd.

The burden of llm plaint Is that he la Inconsiderate of her un uses too much tobacco, the Implied meaning U that ahe is only nun of the many wo men who- have found marriage a disil lusion, and the Inference Is that mlsun derstood aud unnppreelalud wives may find much Joy and relief In lelllng some body else how they have suffered. Now there Is no uuestlon that the La dles' Home Journal has many well polsed and sensible women readers, but the pity Is that It has nlso many read ers of exactly this coinplalnlngi woman's type, women who look at the world through the spectacles of self-esteem und who llnd nothing of Interest except tne inings mat couirinutu to their little ego. How enlightening It might be to this woman lf her husband could tell her in cold print, why. lf It were to do over again, he would not muny her. It Is quite likely that marriage has not ful filled all Ills Ideftls. cither; that be has discovered that the paragon of woman liness whom he selected for a lift part ner Is more Interested In her coiffure than In his dinner, more solicitous about her complexion than about his linen and buttons, and more Jealous of her self esteem tliMti she Is of bis business and social standing. Perhaps she would llko to read that her husband would not stay married to her lf he could decently get out of tlio contract, because he dislikes the habit she has of saturating herself with per fumes, because he Is weary of heaiimr petty gossip and of complaints, about his ncome.

Perfidy Personified From the People's Press. About the only distinguishable dif ference between Benedict Arnold and our Charlie, said Charlie being Senator Fulton, appears to be that Arnold was content with being a traitor himself, w-iiile Fulton is endeavoring to m;Uo traitors of others for his sole benetjt. Fulton wants to hold a Republican caucus on the senatorial situation. Slid In this pe.TuI caucus complete the dis honor of certain Statement No. 1 men who are even now wavering hetwe'-n sophistry and common honor, between the old doKUia of party mlltles and the lu-w idea of honesty in politics. Fulton wants to hold any soil of a secret confab, or to adopt any measures, or How It May Be D 'one From the Medford Tribune. The editor of the Oregonlnn con tlnues to be perturbed over the, scna tonal situation.

To the oregonlan and other news papers who follow Its lead we com mend these methods, and In the opinion of the Tribune the fourth method Is preieranic, orcause death Is preferable uisnonor and disgrace of a pub But that Is not the point. The es sence of the publication of such a whlno is. that the I,adles Home Journal, with Its great circulation, does an Immeiiso amount of harm and counteracts much of the good that It may have achieved in Its long career, bv the voicing of such a trivial, fault-finding article. It stirs up a spirit of discontent, makes the prevailing marital unrest In the coun try more Intense, crystallizes in I lie minds of many weak women the belief hat they are lmposrtd upon, treated un- ilvly and Increases the fault-nndinir habit among women so disposed.

Instead of blazoning it abroad, earning money for her to spend and taking earn of her through long and arduous years of unappreciated devotion. The strength of character of a woman who weighs a husband's years of devo tion against tho fact that lie uses loo much tobacco, and decides that the to-, bacco Is the more Important, is so slight that It need scarcely be counted. Kven the fact that a man who earns the money with which his family Is sup ported (something often overlooked), does nfit take his wife Into full partner ship in Its disposal, but parts wllh It grudgingly, though It may be a trial.
