The hes itation of good men to become can didates springs from their fear that the multitude is unconcerned on the the process with consternation, con cerned as to what and where the end will be. The answer is that, per haps, like the battleship folly, the eubject. That unconcern which is Le,. ot ftplng tasU(m and fads the mother of .uninformed action . gives the politician the advantage . and puts the good man at a. dlsad vantage. 5 If Ihe" sentiment for good government In Portland will become pronounced, able, wte and - strong men can be Induced to take office.

Is It not a plan worth while? FOOLISH MISS EMERY THE HOOTS and jeers at the fool ish Emery girl and her mother as they left San Francisco are a tragedy. The whole busi ness' is a tragedy. The foolish at tachment of the girl with its shat tered home and disunited parents Is a tragedy. Were the Jap the finest specimen of noble young manhood he would not be worth the sacrifice, and this the girl will discover later. A happy home is the sanest and afest Institution In all the world. .It is the most precious edifice In the social order. It is the safe guard and protection of human so ciety. It is the daughters' shield and the sons defense. It is the stronghold in which both are safe.

It is something of which the school may well be proud. The big, populous, denuded east, all the country east of the Missis sippl and north of Mason and Dix on's line, pontainlng all the large, doubtful states, wants free lumber. The lumber states of Oregon and Washington, and California as well. are invariably and under all cir cumstances and whatever provoca tions, safely and surely Republican in national elections. Hence lum ber may go on the free list. See the point? "The cross-firing between wit nesses before the committee," . said Congressman Clark, "was that one set of manufacturers fell afoul ot an other because the tariff pie was not evenly distributed, and each one wanted the biggest piece." The re mark is a whole illuminative speech.

Yenterday In Walla Walla a Bale was reported at $1.17. which Is on a basis of $1.27 '4 ln Portland. The scarcity of the wheat supply and the scramble of millers to secure Ktorks will increase until harvest time, and the price of flour will soar accordingly. It was a fortunate farmer this season who kept his wheat in bis granary. Lnmbprmen would be ruined by abolishing or even reducing the duty. thy say.

This reads as if by next year the Ore gonlan might concede In advance that the census might disclose a population of 170,000, or 175,000 Jackson eounty nas kept its word and appropriated $50,000 for the Crater Lake road. Klamath countv will doubtless do likewise. Oregon has appropriated $100,000. Now the government should do Its part. By the way. if two such counties can give $100,000 toward a wagon road, couldn't Oregon build a railroad or two, if it had to?

Is It true General Sheridan has been charged with being .sometimes unnecessarily severe toward the enemy T My conversations with him strongly im pressed me with therouridlessness of a charge which could ,In no wise be recon ciled with the abhorrence which he ex pressed for the- atrocities of war, with his natural aversion to bloodshed, and with the hope he uttered that he would never,-again be obliged to draw his sword against an enemy. 1 am per suaded that the sentiments of humanity fever found a congenial home, a aecure lodgement lh the breast of Geneal Sheridan. Those who are best acquaint ed with his military career unite In say ing that he never needlessly sacrificed human.iife, and that he loved and cared for his soldier, as a father loves and cares for his children.
