GAIN, the Oregonian returns
A to the attack on President
f Wilson and Secretary Bryan.
In a cartoon this morning.
lt is v malignant in its effort to
discredit everything connected with
the administration.
1 It is the ame type of cartoon
fthat in a New York paper fired

,McKlnley. Theodore Roosevelt sb

President Wilson and Mr. Bryan
are held up as the men to be con-
fdemned, and with a malignity Bel-
Mom displayed in the public press.
Scarcely another newspaper in
fthe United States, aside from a few
Ireactionary publications, have at
tacked the tariff law. Scarcely a
(single newspaper in the country
has attacked the currency act.
In truth, both measures have
fbeen accepted and' heralded in a
rgcneral way as the best pieces of
legislation ever enacted by an
merican Congress.
Moreover, President Wilson Is
lmost "universally accepted as one
rf ha mnot natrintlc. one of the
wisest and one of the most human-
. 3tarian chief magistrates that have
ret served the people of the great
tepubllc.
The only reason for the Oregon-
Jan's attacks on President Wilson
jand Mr. Bryan is, that they are
Democrats.
The incident recalls the patriotic
Jreply of Editor Nelson of the Kan
sas .City Star, a Republican news
paper, to the New York Herald.
JThe Herald wired for an expres
sion of Mr. Nelson's views on what
. ought to be done in Mexico. Mr.
SNelson replied, "I am not advising
Ahe president; I am supporting
lira."
F DR. C. J. SMITH was as bad
an actor as the Oregonian
claims he was as mayor of
Pendleton,; why its anxiety to
prevent him from getting the Dem
ocratic nomination for governor?
Since it is to support the Re
publication nominee for governor
and try to beat the Democratic
nominee, what is the Oregonian's
reason for attempting to prevent
the Democrats from nominating
Smith?
Why is it afraid to have Smith
as the '"Democratic nominee?
Why the almost two columns of
stuff printed this morning in an
attempt to cHacredlt the statements
of the many -who positively state
that as mayor of Pendleton, Dr.
Smith inaugurated many moral re

CHINESE EGGS
b
OES anybody see In Portland
market places any signs dis
played to the effect that Chi
nese eggs are for sale?
They do not. . Yet It is the fact
that several carloads of such eggs
have been sold in Portland.
A great many people do not
want to eat eggs produced in
China. Describing his tour around
the world, W. J. Bryan said his
party did not eat eggs In
China because of the unsani
tary conditions. Whatever may
be the scientific facts, most peo
ple want their foodstuffs produced
and put on the market withevery
step completely sanitary. i
In any event, Chinese eggs are
not fresh when they arrive in
Portland. It is instated that an
average of two months elapses be

There are sixteen candidates for

Among all these aspirants, the Ore
gonlan has singled out but. one for
attack. Of the eight Republicans,
it has said nothing. As it is to
support the Republican, under any
ordinary circumstances, its natural
activity would be to discuss the
Republican aspirants-.
But on the subject of the Re
publican candidates, it has nothing
to say. On the subject of the Pro
gressives, It has nothing to say.
On the subject of four of the Dem
ocrats, it has nothing to say.
It has singled out Dr. Smith as
a man to persecute. It has se

It is fighting Dr. Smith in the

If, Instead of waging a war against
tne enfranchisement of women, as the
church had been doing from the be
ginning of my public career, and con
tinuing till It saw our ultimate success
was inevitable, when It seised It as a
probable weapon for its own advan
tage, the liquor traffic had stood
staunchly by the Equal Suffrage move
ment, as it did before the church
espoused It and had utilized the many
hundreds of thousands of dollars it has
since expended annually In fighting
defenseless women. If it had turtied its
attention to cleaning up Its own traffic
by protecting the mother, wife and
children of the drunkard from the ef
fects of his own moral weakness, the
Prohibitionists would not now have the
traffic "on the run.
. But It Is never too late tq begin
a moral reform, based on human lib

JUDGE of the Supreme Court
of New York has sustained
the provision in the labor
statute passed last year
which requires employers to give
employes one day's rest every
week. Where Sunday work is
necessary and legal, another day
in the week must be given instead.
The requirement was attacked
on the ground that it interfered
with contract and property rights
in cases that do not fall within the
state's police power or the power
of protecting public health, morals
and order. In other words re
strictions justified in the case of
women and children were not, it
was contended, justified in the
case of adult and strong nren who
are supposedly able to take care
of their own interests.
In upholding the clause the court
took the common sense view that
there is such a thing as overwork
even for able bodied men and
that the regulation is designed to
conserve human health and racial
vigor.
The decision is in line with the
growing public sentiment that the
law should step in where the in
human employer fails to give labor
one day In seven.
The man who works without
rest can not be said to live. He
has none of the pleasures of life
and even as a machine loses his
efficiency and value.

Beatty is a quiet, kindly, scholarly
man, who seemed peculiarly- well
suited by his assignment when he
was placed In charge of the naval li
brary at Washington. But his chief
value to the navy has been as an ex
pert on ordnance. Just as Admiral
Fiske, now in charge of the bureau
of operations, is largely responsible
for the 'improvement in naval artillery
practice, through the electric range
finder and telescope sight he Invented,
so Beatty Is to be credited with a
share of the improvement in the guns
themselves which has been worked out
in the lust dozen years. As command
ant of the navy yard at Washington
end later as superintendent of the
naval gun factory he had an oppor
tunity to aid In making the big guns
of the modern American warship the
equal of any big gun in the world.
Perhaps It is because of those early
days of chore doing with no time for
play that Beatty has always btn
known as a friend of the young offi

charged that some of the elder officers
frown upon youngsters who display
too much initiative and perseverence.
The elders feel that promotion should
be deserved by years rather than by
achievement. Beatty has never pub
