THE REAL FRATJDIST.
I
HERE has been ample disproof
NJl'ST, unfair, and brutal la
the charge the Oregonian hai
tittered agalnHt 639 citizens of
Portland. It haa charged
these cltUens with "having lied and
sworn to the lie," ana insists mat
their action involved "political thlm-
ble-rlKglng, lying, deceit, perjury,
fraud, jugglery and miscellaneous
dlHlionoHty.'" The offense of these
citizens Is that they exorcised their
God-given right of participating In
an election, and that In the process
hey registered as they pleased, and
voted according; to the dictates of
heir own consciences, privileges that
few would assume to withhold from
a sovereign citizen of the republic.
The Investigation shows that In
nearly all cases of a change of par
tisan alignment, there was a Justi
fiable reason, some transferring their
allegiance permanently from the
Democratic to the Republican party,
some returning to the Republican
party after a temporary alignment
with the Democrats, and others for
various and perfectly justifiable rea
sons transferring their names from
the Republican to the Democratic
list, and vice versa.
In some instances, Republicans
who registered as Republicans, who
voted as "Republicans and never vot
ed any other ticket, are included in j
this list of 539 names which the Ore-
gonian holds up to public contempt
as "having lied and sworn to the lie"
in the process of frauds at this elec
tion. Among the number are two
Catholic priests, whose conduct In

fort, not to help Oregon or Portland,
but to do something, anything, to
discredit tho present system of nom
inations and elections in tbo state.
The good names of citizens are held
as lightly as the dead and decaying
leaves of winter. Their reputations
before the people of the state are
stabbed and stricken. The worst
aspersions that foul language from a
foul pen can express, are applied to
thein. The cloth of the clergyman
gives him no Immunity from the
brutal assault. The fact that there
was no offense counts for nothing.
The fact that many of those held up
to public contempt did not vote ln
the primaries for Cake, but cast their
ballots for Fulton, counts for noth
ing. The fact that the whole deduc
tion is a monstrous and indefensible
fabrication counts for nothing.
Nothing Is considered, nothing taken
Into account. A purpose, a vile,
wicked purpose hatfo be served, and
the Oregonian intends to serve it. It
is not a question of truth, or justice,
or virtue, but of selfish, political ex
pediency, and the paper knows how
to wprk the trick. These citizens are
crucified to serve the paper's own
personal concern. That Is the begin
ning of it, the end of it, and all of It.
f
on not a bank failed and not a dollar
of the fund, had been drawn upon
Indicating that this law promoted
careful banking, rather than reckless
banking, s Mr. Taft argues would
be the case.
Mr. Knox ln his book eays that "lt
was owing to defects in the practical
application rather than in the prin
ciple of the safety fund act" that
caused the plan, in time of extraor
dinary stress, to fail. "That is to
say," says The Public, "if the law
had secured circulation only, the
New York 'safety fund' would have
been adequate. It Is evidently as
true that it responsibility for all
debts had been Intended, the Insur
ance percentage, would have been
larger and the fund consequently suf
ficient. The essential point, there
fore,, js that failure of the 'safety
fund' of New York at a time of
stress, when everything else failed
from one end of the country to the
other, was due to an oversight in the
details of law making and not to the
principle of the plan that Mr. Bryan
proposes. Even as lt was, both de
positors and note holders got "much
more of their money back than either
would have got but for the 'safety
fund' which Mr. Taft so lightly con- j
demns."
But Mr. Knox goes on te show
that the eafety fund system was af
terward adopted both In Michigan
and Vermont, and the New York law,
Improved upon, so that, he says, with
reference to Vermont, the law
"proved satisfactory in its operations
and raised the standard of banking
throughout the state." Now if Mr.
Taft had not read Mr. Knox's book
carefully, why did he quote it as anJ
authority? And if he had read It,
why did he put a wrong construc

MR. TAFT MISTAKEN.
r
N A SPEECH at Hot Springs some
weeks ago Mr. Taft, in denounc
ing the- proposed plan of guaran
teeing or Insuring bank deposits,
alluded to a law of this kind In force
for awhile In New York state, say
ing that his information came from
a well-known writer on the sub
ject." This writer, as Is pointed out
in The Public, was Mr. John J.
Knox, for many years comptroller
of the currency, and who wrote a
History of Banking in the United
States." Either Mr. lart nad not
read this book carefully, or else he
was not quite candid in his remark.
What was called the "safety fund
svstem was adopted In New York Id
1829. and was maintained till 1S38,
when what was known as the free
hanking system was Introduced. The
trouble was that the marts held that
the safety fund was responsible for
rot only circulation but for all debts
Of Insolvent banks, and it failed to
meet certain emergencies, daring the
tank: of 1837-42. But until that
great panic came oa the "safety
fsnd" Titer of New Tork was a
complete success, according to Mr.
Knos. "If the fund had only bni
drawn on for tfee redemption of the
circulation of the basks that became

HE SprlngfiaW, Mass., Repub
lican Is a noted newspaper, that
for many years has been very
independent politically. It Is
inclined thiB year to support Taft, yet
it indulges ln no illusions as to the
situation, for it Bays: "The plain
truth seems to be that Mr. Bryan ln
the first part of September in run
ning Btronger than seemed possible
early in July, and that the Taft cam
paign has no more than begun to get
up the steam necessary to make It
victorious. Every political observer
admits that the Democratic candi
date has been favored by a better
start than his opponent.
The Republican further says that
"a narrow margin of victory is all
that the present outlook offers to
Mr. Taft."
The interesting question for the
political student Is: Will the tide
that has manifestly risen during the
past two months in Bryan's favor.
continue to rise, or will it recede next
month? There are possibilities both
ways. Nobody can surely tell. But
It seems pretty certain that the pop

been since 1891. The "overwhelm

way home Monday light she had al

The Mallorys have the right Idea
they are seeing America first. ' Now
and then, when traveling they take
hunting and fishing' trips on the side.
Also they do a little trap shooting.
The Mallorys are originally from
Pennsylvania. Some day when they get
tired of traveling and have seen all the
sights of the world, they will go back
to the country Jn the vicinity of their
old boyhood home and build homes for
themselves and their families, and
where they will live for years to come.
J. F. Mallory leaves tomorrow for
Medford for a visit. The brother will
remain ln Portland until Monday, when j
he goes to San Francisco. There the
two brothers and their wives will meet
and then start the trip that will take
more man a year to complete.

These were the men who marched to
the banquet hail where a feast com
prising every luxury, every dainty,
every token of expensive preparation,
to be compassed in a rich city, were
spread for the delectation of a man
who dines sumptuously every day, who
walks amid luxuries, who is lapped In
purple and whose every wish Is ca
tered to from his birth to his deafh.
Can it be wondered at that sometimes
the feel in r of the very Poor against
the injustices of the world, ferment un
til they break forth in argy protest?
It Is to be marveled at that in a
country where thousands of men, wo
men and children are starving, while
millions of acres of cultivatable land
lie idle, there would be occasionally
the outbreak of indignation? It may
not come In our lifetime, but some time
and In some way, it must come, and
whether we be Hooiallst or Christian
or anarchist or heathen scientist, we
shall unite in praising that glad day,'.
when an -men in an parts or ine worm
shall be able to exchange the labor of
their bodies for enough sustenance to
satisfy, the cravings of the physical
man, with enough to spare to feed the
women who share their lives and the
little children who are dependent upon
them.

cream cheese or some fresh Dutch
cheese, and season with salt and pep

necessary; roll into tiny balls, the smal
ler the better, and let them get firm
on ice. Peel some small round toma
toes and remove most of the inside
by cutting off the stem end and scoop
ing out the middle. Heap with the
little cheese balls and sprinkle with
chopped parsley: Just before serving
pour a teaspoonful -of French dressing
over each one; lay on white lettuce and
serve very cold.
Corn will only last through Septem
ber or a little time after, so that
