AN ABSURD THEORY HE theory that ' the people'! ; choice last June for senator should be rejected by Rep.iib- lt... 3 , Am n t Xf - Mam. bers of the legislature because Tatt received a majrjrity In this state, or , becansalhe Republican registration greatly exceeded the Democratic, Is foneVput forward; by desperate and unscrupulous political" gamblers, and has no solid and meritorius founda tion.; y' ;:a , - , The. latter argument assumes that 'every voter must vote the straight ticket and for every candidate 6n It, as he registers. If one registers as a Republican, he must rote not, only - lor TattV but for a. Republican sena tor, representative: and ' Republican state and county officers. He has no right to exercise any Independ ence or discrimination anywhere. It la assumed that every man who vot ed for Taft must or should of neces- lty have voted not only, for Cake, hut for the Republican nominees for the J legislature, ' for sheriff, for as sessor, for mayor, for every state, county and city office. It is to this reductlo ad absurdam that this as sumption Inevitably leads. ' If this Idea be correct then there Is no need of "balloting at all;' the nominees of the party that has the highest registration might as well be . declared electedThe eleeiiaa is a mere useless form. Not a minority candidate anywhere along the line is entitled to any chance of election whatever, for the registration shows that his party Is not strong enough to elect a single man. The registra tion alone would determine the elec- . tion. What an absurdity such a plea ie! I ' . . - But. s Taft carried ' Oregon by a , large ' majority, ' therefore, . It is urged,11 the same voters must have pecessarlly changed their mind as to senator,, and must now desire a Re publican, senator. This again as sumes that the voters must not and cannot discriminate between men at all; i must elect every one of the same party with the head of the ticket. But Innumerable instances show that tbls is not and under a free ballot cannot be the case. In the , late election, Ohio, Indiana and Minnesota gave Taft majorities, and at the same time elected Democratic governors. Shall the people of those states be incited to repudiate their own act, and try to deprive these governors-elect of their offices. This is Just as reasonable as to say that because the people of Oregon pre ferred Taft for president they do not wish Chamberlain for senator, after they have declared tbat they do want him In that office, j, . This thing happens In every elec tion as ' to all .sorts of offices, - in many states. Multnomah county, of which Portland Is the greater part in point of population, is Republican on national politics by some 8,000 or perhaps 10,000 plurality. Yet within the past few years it has elected a Democrat for sheriff and a Democrat for district attorney, and Portland has twice elected a Demo crat for mayor.rTWhy then, were the people not Incited to overturn their own work and keep these Democrat oat of office?. It might as well have been said In these cases 1 that thej people had made a mistake, did not know what they,, were about, were the victims of , a "Juggle" and ; a "bunko game," as to say so " now ith respecj. to Chamberlain. r ' j But In Chamberlain's cane there U ample and pepullar evidence to iiow that th -people knew very well fcat they were about.' They had twice ew-ted ; him governor after ha had held various other office Ms .first' oppn.pnt bHnp nominated ( a convention, tfcft second by the clmt irhunry. Tfcey hud known him for. 30 years, and had watched nis official career. They had his record v before them. Five , or six times he has been elected to office, and always when there was Republican , majority to contend against, therefore he was elected in part by Republican votes. Yet no body, ever heard . before? of a con spiracy to keep him out of office on this account Why Invent this ridic ulous, ; false pretense that voters must vote the same way always and on everybody at this late , day T in iisoz ; Chamberlain was elected governor, and In .1904 Roosevelt carried the sUte by almost 43,000 plurality. 20,000 more than Taft carried It , by; why then was not a movement inaugurated to oust the governor from office? Or. if that was Impossible,, why, O why, only a year and seven months after Roose velt had been given this overwhelm Ing majority, did the people of Ore gon reelect Chamberlain by a much largertnajorlty than before? - Didn't they know- what they were about then? And if so, didn't they equal ly know what they were about last June?',- . V ;':' In 1902 ' they wanted : Chamber Iain.' "1904 they wanted Roose velt. In '1906 -they wanted Cham berlain. In 1908 they' wanted Chamberlain and Taft. They had a right thus to i discriminate. And they have a right to have their will carried into effect. Juat as the four successful? presidential electors will surely carry , out the people's will and Tote for Taft, just so sure ly ought the legislature to tarry out the people's will and elect Chamber lain. - t HYPOCRITICAL CRITICISM H' AVING supported the high pro tective tariff party and its candidates.' making- during the campaign no objection to this principal policy and main prin ciple I of that party,, but . on the contrary approving and indorsing all ft has done during "these 50 years," the Oregonlan no criticises the manifest intent of the party leaders to raise Jrather than reduce duties, and to fix the schedules throughout. just as the" .allied , interests want them,, without any reference to the interest of ' consumers." - 'The .Inter ested beneficiaries, that paper says, can be made satisfied, It not so al ready "by the. addition of 10 or 15 per cent to their present pickings out ot the consumers pocket. Complete satisfaction, such as reigns among these worthies Is to be found else where on earth only among a flock of vultures after they have finished picking the bones of a band of sheep." But It Is to be remembered that the vultures could not pick the bones of the sheep unless authorized to do so by the leaders of the party and the men, who the Oregonlan in variably supports. And whenever a test cornea, whenever a vote Is to be taken, that paper Is always for the vultures and against the sheep. 1 Kb mouth should be closed to complaint now; there Ii"no sincerity In Its ob jurgations, for it has never failed to help uphold and maintain this very policy of robbery of the people that when its voice is Impotent it pretends to resent. I ' v What hypocrisy is displayed in ibis further statement: "For many , years the consumer has sat like a patient ass under, the burden of the Dingley tariff, sooth ing his misery by the fantastic con solation that the more taxes he paid the richer he would grow. It passes belief tbat an entire nation could be fooled by such a patent piece of Im posture for more than a generation, and yet the fact Is indisputable." But "for many years" the same paper baa done all It could, when ever there was opportunity to do or say anything effectively, to keep he burden on the people's back, and to fool them on this subject,' by support ing every candidate, high and low, who stood for this monstrous In iquity. These leaders in congress cannot be blamed now, either. The people approved the Dingley tariff, and even a higher tariff, for Mr. Taft never promised any specific or even any general reduction, ind did say, sig nificantly and evidently with definite purpose, that some duties should be raised. . Neither is there anything In the Republican platform to "repu diate." It promised nothing In par-! ticular, and if it had, few people were silly enough to suppose the promise would, be kept. The people Indorsed the Dingley tariff, or any other and higher tariff that the lead ers might impose when they elected Mr. Taft, Mr. Cannon, and a Repub lican house. And every paper that supported them indorsed this policy. and is only making a false and futile pretense in opposing It now. COPYTXG THE SMART SET P ORTLAND 18 discussing a play that was this week the bill it a local theatre. The lesson of the plot is the theme of very wide comment. A married conple. aa 'thousands of married couples do, loved dress and other luxuries that the husband's slender $18 -per week could not afford. He came home one day1 ; with a reported increase ln salary; ; more and i richer-: clothes, smarter apartments and' other lux uries were Indulged in. . News of other increases in the husband's sal ary : were brought home, and more theatres, more dinners- and more of the ways of the smart set were pao tlced. ; ' It is the story as old as man and as true as the grave. It began In Eden and will continue to the crack of doom. Spurred on by love of dls play that he could not afford the husband was an embezzler, and the increases of salary were a myth This play told it In a new way and with an Intensely human side, wit mirrored in some of lti phases the every day lives of thousands of peo ple. Family after family seek, to live in the illusion that they are ot the smart set and fashion attire and appearances after the models of the millionaires. The designers of fash ion create foolish models In dress particularly for women, that are be yond the reach of slender means, in the effort, to keep up with the gilded procession Incomes are strained, as sets dissipated and strong men tempted. The appeal of a wife, or the common desire of husband and wife to keep up with the fashionable procession has ruined many a career It la a foible of the race and one of the perils of the social whirl. It is pathetic because the man who steals that his wife., may keep step with her neighbor or her social set Is not all bad. It is pathetic, too, because every city in every state is studded with Instances. It cost $120, dear," said a Port land wife to her husband, describing her new. gown in a popular tailor ing establishment the other, day." 'My God, was the serious reply. HOW THE TARIFF WILL BE REVISED M R. PAYNE'S committee has been hearing suggestions from those Interested on Schedule A of the tariff, comprising chemicals, oils and paints, Most of these Interested persona are satisfied with the pres ent schedule of duties, though in some cases they want a higher duty, so as to make it absolutely prohibi tive of Importations. These opin ions and suggestions will be the basis of the ' committee's report. Only those who will be benefited by high er taxes,, by monopolization as near ly as possible, will be Invited to the hearing,, or given any attention, The 55,000,000 consumers of the country are utterly disregarded, So it will he with all the schedules, from "A to or however far they run. Those interested in shutting out all foreign competition and in being enabled to make the prices very. high to con sumers, will frame the new tariff bill, just as they framed the Ding ley bill, and the McKlnley bill. There is talk of a iff ax) mum 'and minimum tariff,, authorizing the president to reduce the rate to the v"a" "v . "' ing a similar law and that do the same as to American imports; but If this plan should be adopted, prob ably the present schedules, an aver age of over 62 per cent duty, will as a rule be fixed as the minimum rates, so that, as usual, the "friends of the tariff" will revise it upward Instead of downward But as this was what, ln part, the people voted for lately, the major ity will have no right bq complain. Not having supported the winning side, The Journal is at liberty to continue to assail the tariff as the greatest system of robbery of the people ever Invented EUROPEAN WATERWAYS G" OVERN'MENTS of the countries through whlcfi the great river Danube flows are evidently not in control of Joe Cannons. The Danube river system has been transformed Into a system of navi gable Inland waterways by' an ex penditure of over $190,000,000, con tributed largely by Austria, Hungary and Roumania. In consequence, Its traffic Is increasing very rapidly. and will soon exceed that of the Suez canal. One Austrian company alone employs 141 steamboats and 940 Iron barges. On a single stretch of 180 miles between Vienna and Pas- sau the Austrian government alone is spending $40,000,000. In a series of articles ln the Bos ton Transcript, Mr. John L; Matthews is showing Iiow European govern ments are spending many hundreds of millions of dollars In Improving or creating inland waterways. Wher ever possible tney are canalizing their rivers, at whatever cost, and results attained : are already bo eat iefactory ..that the Work 18 going ahead on ' greater scale than ever. This country Is greater , and richer and Incomparably more resourceful In every way than those countries, and yet, because a few railroad mag nates object,, for 'selfish and short sighted reasons, it seems impossi ble to get such a movement i started In this country. Cannon will appar ently be stronger ln the next con-' gres8 than ever, and he Is scornfully and sardonically opposed to any such expenditure of money. He wants to give It to the trusts. Yet perhaps the pressure for In land waterways . cannot be resisted very much longer by the corporation standpatters. Illinois has appropriat ed $211,000,000, and will ask the gov ernment and other states to join in canalizing the Mississippi river. East ern states are likely to follow suit with demands for a series of canals along various lines between Boston and Florida. On this coast we will Insistently urge the opening of our rivers as speedily as possible. This country can afford to spend hun dreds of millions In this way. The people : will get the benefit ?
