CAPITALIZING MEN
T
CITY FOUNTAINS
HE Rock Island Railway Sys
tem has very recently issued a
bulletin to Its employes ln
which a man Is regarded as
an Investment by his employers, it
la quoted in the Railway and Engin
eering Review. The amount Is
taken as the capital sum that would
De required, 11 invested at 4 per
cent, to produce annually the wages
of the man. So a wage earner of
?1000 a year is estimated to be
worth S25.000.
Tie circular proceeds - that - the
company willingly pays interest on
$25,000 for the use of the energy
and faculties of the man that earns
the $1000.
The sermon to the mea on this
text is that the man by Improving
his time and feeding sensibly both
PPARENTI.Y. there is a great
work for the I. W. W. to do
at Corvallls. Unless some
thing Is dona, that beautifu
but naughty city it hopelessly lost to
the great cause of revolution.
Planting bis soap box in front of
the town drill hall, an orator of th
red flag began a thrilling bugle call
to revolution. He sounded th
alarm for the Corvallls slaves of the
republic to throw off their chains,
and lo, tho unfeeling bystanders
laughed.
He shouted to the down trodden
to throw off the yoke of tyranny' and
smite the powers of pillage, but the
hard hearted Corvallisites jeered
He pointed to the Corvallls militia
men, declaring that they are school
lng themselves in the use of arms so
they could go out and shoot labor,
and thereupon the stony-bosomed
Corvallls hosts of capitalism assault
ed him with a shower of cruel soft-
nosed eggs.
What a reception for one who
strove to save the enslaved Corval
lisites from the Jaws of the octopus.
Are they going to Insist on following
tbo stars and stripes in servitude and
slavery when the red flag of an
archy temptingly offers them three
square meals a day without the both
er of working to pay for them?
It is Corvallls, benighted Corval
lls, that most needs missionary en
deavor by the chieftaina of tbo I.

whar. wa hara nothing mora than row
trails for roads, I 4m not In favor of
anr good roads bill that will bond our
children or futura feneration. Wa
nave now, It aeems to me, gone the
Irmlt an banding, and If futura genera
tions aver pay what bonda ara already
atandlng agalnat them I ruins my guaaa.
I am In favor of auch good roada 44
wa ara able to pay for without having
to pay two or three time In lntareat
what tha roada will actually coat to
1 build, to soma one who hs nothing to
ao witn road building, win never see
the roada, and perhara never know they
are getting 4 rakeoff from that aourc.
Thla Idea will probably ba called revo
lutionary, but H la nothing mora than
we have bean allowing the favored faw
to do for many year a.
My plan la for th atate of Oregon
to go Into tli a banking business. W
can elect our bank offlclala Juat th
name aa tha stockholders of any bank
do; iasue 110,000,000 or 120,000,000 of
bonda, with or without lntereat; d
posljt them In the treasury of th United
States and get currency Issued on them
same aa banks do at prevent; do a
ganqral banking business; loan money
not needed Immediately at S or I per
cent and go-ahead with our road build
ing aa we aaa fit
With this arrangement th Interest
on tha money ao loaned will take car
of the bonda In 20 or IS years, we will
have our good roada built and We will
not be out a dollar for their construction.
I am aware that the banks and mon
eyed interests of tha entire United
States would throw all possible obsta
cles ln the way to defeat any such
measure. But why should the publlo
which has tha bills to pay, consider tha
wishes of those InterestsT Are they
not getting their money the same way?

weak character Is considered, that he

though nothing could have been for hTm-
stlf more ruinously unfortunate.
His 111 starred expedition In June.
1115, the rebellion he headad, his de
feat at Sodgemore, and the subeequent
clrcumatancea, have all been rendered
familiar to tha preaent generation by
tha animated narration of Macaulay.
alonmouth's Itebelllon Is one of th
most Interesting efforts In English his
tory or an attempt by reason or birth,
to dethrone a king and place the lead
ing conspirator In his place. Mon
mouth's treachery against James com
pelled him to flee England and take up
a residence In Holland. When It wn
finally decided to undertake the de
throning of James, Monmouth started
for England, with a small following
landing on June 11, 1685. He was well
received and waa not In England- ti
hours before, he found himself at th
head of 1C00 men. But though popular
among tha oommon people, he received
no support from the upper classes. Even
the strongest Whigs thought his at
tempt 111 timed and fraught with danger.
Meanwhile Monmouth advanced to
Taunton, where, vainly thinking to at
tract th nobility, he eeeurnad Ihe IUU
of king. Dut difficulties already be
gan to gather around him. Ha was la
auch want of arms that although rustic
Implement war convened Into ptkea,
ha was still obliged lo send away many
volunteers.. The mllltta wera lolng
la upon him In 411 dlreetlona. Oa Ih
fifth of July, Monmouth waa advised
to undertake a night earprla and did
so on lha aixtb. Tha night waa not1
unfitted for such an enlerpiiae, for the
mist waa ao thick that at a ftw pacas i
naming could he seen.
Hut fate was against the pretender.
n was put to rngnt and waa short!
apprehended in tha' New roreet In th
neighborhood of Rlnawood. He Pell
tloned abjectly for hi llf. hot In vain,
H was executed on the fifteenth of
July.
Th spot In th forest where Mon
mouth waa raptured was for severs
centuries Indicated with precision by a

was identified, ao great waa tha change

of personal neglect, starvation and ter
ror had wrought upon his ones graceful
form. The woman, Ann Farrant. who
had given th Information to th king's
troops regarding his nterlng the Island,
waa considered by tha peaaantry to
havo never thriven after her ungracious
act.
Th failure of Monmouth'a attempt
to aelse the throne waa followed by the
most terrlbl cruelties. The number of
men killed Is computed by soma at
2000 and othera at 300: a dlsDarltv.
however, which may be easily recon
ciled by aupposlng that the one account

Ther are signs that Portland wiUJ
make an effort this time to select
the best possible officials. The peo
ple seem determined not to permit
themselves to be bamboozled by un
fit candidates with flying, glittering
platforms. Most platforms are torn
up after election. They are usually
a mere device to get in on.
It is but two weeks until the
primaries. Mostly, the primaries
settle the question of who are to
be the officials, and the officials
run the government. If the citizen
wants, good government ha can get
it He has the ballot
District Attorney and Sheriff.
To th Editor of Trie Journal Your
editorial in last Sunday's Journal on
The Public's Own Kault" was well
aken and to the point. It is nobody's
fault but our own If we do not have
good government and- honest officers
If the voters who want gnod govern
ment will stand together they can get
good government anj hontat officers
to enforce good government laws. The
vast majority of the voters are for good
government and honest-;of fleer; but
mSny of them are blinded by glitter
ing preelection promises made by many
unworthy men; the forces are always di
vided by enemies who work within their
own camp. We can, if we will, elect
men to office whd will make and en-'
force laws and carry out the duties of
each office Without trying, at the same
time, to -reather their own nests." If
men who hold office ar trying to hold
down the office and also to "feather
their nest" they will enforce -the law
or negiect to enforce it, according .to
which method will bflng the most
feathers to their nest'
The two most Important offices In
this county ara th office of district
attorney and th sheriff's -office. In
order "to properly enforce the laws we
must place In these office able, 'hon
est fearless and clean men. Give us
N. H. Bird for sheriff and out a sauare
district .attorney back of him 4nd we
1 win nca neea jj lament over the lack
or law enrorcement. Mr. Bird la hon
est and fearless; his reputation la be
yond reproach; his personality la clean;
a square deal for all Is his guiding prin
ciple; hla ability' has never been ouea-
savlng administration. This Ik th kind
of a man you want Mr. Voter, and w
stand ready to prove to you that this
Is the kind of a man Mr. Bird Is.
The Journal has correctly argued In
Its editorials that we should look to
the man rather than to his platform ami
should look into his past reoord in or
der to get a correct criterion on his fu
ture action. ' This Is the correct dni
only method which should be employed
by each voter and we ask that you em
ploy this method ln selecting a sheriff
and district attorney for this county.

One Kind of Lawlessness.
Portland, March 80. To the Editor of
The Journal The party who makes
this kick is a lover Of flowers; has
taken considerable pains to grow a nice
bed of hyacinths which are now ln
bloom; some ar ln a fenced yard out
of reach from the sidewalk, and are ad-'
ralred by all who pass by.
Last night a fellow comes along with
a small kid; he wanted them. ' Instead
of coming to the house and asking, as
any' 'gentleman would have done, this
1 petty thief lifts his kid over the fence
to steal some of them. Now 1 want to
know "what rlgtfta I liave In -such a
case?"
1 This Is not this first time it has hap
pened. Suppose I were to Inject a lib
eral dose of fine shot Into the abov4
mentioned petty -thief, -i there any law
by which I could be either prosecuted
or persecuted?
I am thinking seriously of trying this
method. If we are to have a "City
Beautiful" the flower lover must have
some rights, and such petty thievery
must be stopped, else they will get dis
gusted and raise weeds Instead of

The Maiden Avenue Job.
Portland, March 31,To the Editor of
Th Journal I have read with much
Interest the several articles which hav
appeared ln The Journal - recently lfi
regard to th bids for paving Maiden
avenue. I wish to compliment you on
th activity you have shown In bringing
before the property owners of Portland
th fact that the men they have in
trusted to transact their publlo bust'
noes in the most economical manner
consistent with th Welfare of the pub
lic, stand .accused of granting to th
paving trust a contract for 16000. in ex
cess of th bid of th lowest responsi
ble bidder.
In. asking for bids' for public work.
th city of Portland reqolrca. that acll
bid shall be accompanied lyy a Certified
a a bond of good faith and to guard
against any loss occasioned should the
contractor fall to enter into a suitable
contract. In making thla demand It la
assumed by tho contractor that th city
pieages its word to award th oontract
to wie lowest responsible bidder. When,
however, such conditions arise in let
ting tne contract, as on Maiden avenue,
the honest contractor will cease to bid,
thus stamping out competition ftha de
sire of trusts) and placing the property
owners of Portland at the mercy of the
paving- interests. The result of which
we know from past experiences.
I have been a reader of The Journal
since I. have been a resident of Oregon,
about three years. I hav always ad
mired the attitude taken by your pa
per, in safeguarding the best Interests
of the public, and shall continue to bo a
reader as long aa these ara your poll-cI-
