Where on the earth no. In the earth, did the Oregonlan go to get its fiendish gossip? It Is not surprising that the Telegram feels the halo on its benevolent brow, when, the great Oregonlan goes so far out of Its way to blacken the fair name or a migntiiy abused man. If Mr. .Calhoun bribed the supervisors out of a -trolley franchise and he now seeks '.to avert the consequences by bribery" within the precincts of the court, he Is an unusually vicious man. - if he did one, he is likely to have attempted the other. The new cnarge, - w proven, will greatly eirengtnen oeiief by the public in his guilt on the original charge, and vice versa. If he has done both, he is one of those enormously vicious men wno believe that every man has' his price, and when an end re quires the means gets the man ref gardless of cost. It Is a policy that sets up the thesis that a man is a pawn, the dollar master, and the cor rupting of men legitimate. It places the dollar at the head of the corner, trails persopal honor in the dust and is as void of conscience as is a boa constrictor. It is one of the most Viciaiia1fllLa.lL. t.h&. .ulilatalos' GSr-ifee calendar, because its crimes are com mltted under the cloak and in the name of preeminent respectability. A final phase in the affair, is the ' high-handed methods employed by the prosecution in tracing out ita theory of the alleged guilt of the de- tense on the new charge. Its vio lence is so unusual and Its every feature so spectacular that there will be many to wonder if there is war rant for it all. In any event, the whole country will hold Its breath at goings-on in San Francisco and await with any kind of expectation for any aina or ruture development A DRAIN ON OREGON A' In a communication .to the Spec tator MT."

You boys say i ao not taia enougn ror tne newsDaners. As a matter of fact, I talk almost every day."

When McKtnley and Mills, resriective party leaders in the house, were discus sing the woolen schedule of the Mc Kinley bill, a $10 suit of clothes was used in Illustration and Mills made a cer tain statement.

Jackson, and perhaps some other counties. Tbe news columns have told and will tell sufficiently for Information of these Umatilla projects, but what they mean in results, what their full significance is, tbe volume and na ture of the development they por tend, are matters for reflection, expo sition and discussion.

We come, not to mourn our dead soldiers, but to praise them. For one, I have never liked, even from the first, to see, as so often is the ease, the flag at half mast upon Memorial day. But if ever It was appropriate Jt long since tears no longer befit- th place Where the Soldier lies in his last sleep. The bitter grief which their untimely deaths brought to so many hearts, Time, the all-healer,' has mercifully soothed and , softened Into pathetic memories and pious v.eneration. Many who then mourned In all pain aad pas sion of sorrow and bereavement, have themselves followed after and are now at peace where there is no more sor- jow nor crying, no more war ana righting, no more aDsence . nor part ing. But while the reason for personal grief has been steadily diminishing with the lapse of time and with the passing away of those who once mourned, the reason for praising these men and honoring them in the eyes of the nation has been steadily In creasing as we have come to see more and more clearly the vast and ever growing significance of that which they did. - - When our dead soldiers were brought home from battlefield or hos pital to be laid in quiet graves, no man in all the land, not even he whose great prophetic soul conducted the nation to Us final deliverance, couia possioiy rise far enough above the clamor and the strife, the anguish -and the agony of the time, or peer far enough Into tha cloudy and threatening future to see the half of what the dullest of us now sees of the greatness of the, bless ings which were to be purchased by those most pathetic sacrifices.

Between the two sections, with their antagonistic civilizations, political passions had long been mak ing ever deeper and deeper divisions.

Intimated to our feeble, fal tering faith. The glorious mission to whlchi It is called is to illustrate to the world the blessings, of peace and liberty and educated labor. It was to achieve this mighty deliverance. It was to work this marvelous transforma tion, that our brave soldiers died. Honor, then. Immortal honor, to their memories!
