The Chronicle heartily believes that it would be nothing less than a calamity and loss to the whole state of Oiegon it the office seekers and their strikers should be successful, and Bingtr Iler ffiann should not be le-elected to the position ho has so long filled, with honor to himself and advantage to the whole state. No candidate has been yet named to succeed Mr. Hermann who is iu any way to be compared with liiin. We therefore most sincerely endorse the fol lowing extract, from a strictly private letter, written to a gentleman of this cny, vy one wno uas tne Dest, petiole opportunities of knowing the work and worth of our representative at the Na tional capital. While we, east of the 7 ..-6-. -"j . voice in the election of a representative from the first congressional district we have an abiding interest in the election of any officer who may represent the state at the National capitol, and our only regret is that we are deprived of an opportunity of showing, by our votes, how, "sincerely we appreciate the ser vices' of one who has served us in the past so faithfully and well. : " Perhaps I have expressed myself to you upon this subject, at less or greater length, heretofore, but the time appears propitious to a re-assertion of a few ideas entertained by your humble servant up on.'one phase of congressional representa tion. It is the right of many and the duty of but few to seek distinction Jn candidacy for public place. 'As a rule the office should seek the' man although . we must not be too 6evere upon' any brother who does not try to hide himself from the people when nominating con ventions are doling out the honors. In certain persons are found faculties desirable in an executive, others are en dowed, with qualification for administra-. tive office. The gifts of men are various, of such and such an individual we hear, now and again, "He has a judicial," or, "He has a legal mind." Occasionally one appears equipped witli all the essen tials of a legislator. ' Of the numbers' who seek and gain -congressional honors comparatively few -are entitled to be rated successful, men of mark ; for there is, perhaps, no such place a8"a legislative body to testa man's capacity and ability.. The number of shortlived (one term) representatives and senators is legion, and this not only because the people refuse to return them; but, in very many instances, the once coveted distinction lias proved a sad disappointment.' Behind the glatn our of the honrs there is a world of con stant care, anxiety and unrequited toil. It seems to me that the fortunate repre sentative of the people, like the poet, is born, not made. v I haTe no time to rehearse, in detail, what 1 deem necessary qualifications for a member of congress, but it is my be lief that Binger Hermann is gifted with many of them. ' During the years he has served his district ; bounded only by the limits of -the state ; he has proved a taithful,' fearless representative of the welfare of Oregutt. " ' 'Nor have his ser services been wanting'' in the advance ment of the interests of the entire Pacific slope. - Beyond 'state mad section bis .consideration''- and r treatment " of national questious has also been marked by broad and liberal views."" He is a fluent speaker and, whenever he desires, can command the respectful attention of the house. He is, nowever, not fre quently conspicuous upon the floor) but in committee is an' acknowledged' power, because of his vigorous and untiring industry;'.1 ; ; i'J;"' Originally possessed of , many qualifi cations' essential to a successful 'career at 'Washington, years of education and ex perience have developed ' those - natural abilities and he has become'', thoroughly versed in all honorable methods of deal ing with public men and measures. , The people of his district cannot do better, by themselves, than return him as his own successor.- It would be a seri ous mistake on the! part of, his constit uency should they consent . to relegate him to private life, or impair bis useful ness, by preferring him to any other place of honor, so long as he consents to represent them at the National capitol.' Change may be useful or. unavoidable j but, in itself, or of itself, it simply , re sults in a change which may be for the worse.- ' The translation of. representative Mc Kenha," of California, t the ranks of the judiciary leaves Mr. Hermann, in length of Service (in the house), senior member from the Pacific coast states. ' That dis tinction is not to be under valued, or re garded as unimportant. ' . His position in this congress, as fixed but the pres tige of five consecutive re-elections, will endow him with greater potency for the benefit of our state hereafter. In the organization of the fifty-third congress our present representative,- if returned, will have gained a position of great ad vantage. Two years ago : an Astoria paper published-the following, or a sim ilar, sentence': V'Hei mann can get any thing he wants in .Washington." When the record of this' session of congress is completed you need not . be surprised to learn that this same man has secured Oregon's fair proportion of - appropria tions, even under the ' niggardly condi tions of Holman's drastic application of economics. Yours truly, . - The cheapest tax dodge scheme on rec ord is that of a churchman in Lincoln county, Maine, who has organized a bogus religious and charitable society, has made : himself treasurer, and has turned all his personal property over to the treasury of this non taxable corpora tion. He defies the assessors and they don't see how they can get at him. The friends of W. R. Ellis, says the Heppner Gazelle, consider . his chances for nomination much brighter now than ever before. There is one thing sure, he is the choice of the Eastern . Oregon re publicans, if the majority may be al lowed to select. The western part of the district will, without doubt, endorse the selection of Eastern Oregon. - Arlington will shortly invite members of town councils, boards of trade, etc., from the counties of Marrow, Sherman, Klickitat and Oilman to confer with them to organize a district, board of trade for the purpose of inducing immi gration and to bring about, an soon as possible, an "open river' ... ' - becoming; an Old Story. Chicago, March 9. A letter, was- re ceived by the sheriff today from Juneau, Alaska, from J...C. . Howard, informing him thatTascott, the alleged' murderer of Millionaire Snell, is now in the Yukon river country. ' 1 Boundary Dispute. St. Paul, Minn., March 9. A dispute is threatened between North Dakota and South Dakota as to the boundary line between the two states. The trouble arises through the seventh standard be ing a crooked line to the eastern bound ary of the states, which makes one tier of townships in Roberts county north of the seventh standard parallel. . . , j , . . . Quick Wltted. An actor, now famous, made his first appearance on the stage in a provincial city where theater goers were accustom ed to make their disapproval felt when an entertainer did not succeed in pleas ing them. ' He was young and -nervous and failed dismally in the part he was endeavoring to piesent, aad soon found himself the target for an assortment of objectionable bric-a-brac. When the uproar was at its highest one of his dis gusted auditors flung a cabbage head at him. As it fell on the stage the actor picked it np and stepped forward to the footlights. He raised his hand to com mand silence, and when his tormentors paused . to hear what he had to say, ex claimed, pointing to the, cabbage head "Ladies and gentlemen, I expected to. please yon with my acting, but 1 confess 1 did not expect that any one in- the andience would lose hia head over- it." ' He was allowed to proceed without further molestation. P.. Mc Arthur in Harper's. - GENTLEMEN!
