A HEALTHY GROWTH ONLY.
There is every indication of a large
emigration from Nebraska, the Dakotaa
and Kansas this winter and next spring
and no doubt a considerable portion of
the home-seekers will turn their heads
towards Oregon and Washington. That
the people who will leave are generally
poverty stricken is eaid to be true. This
is no crime and an immigration of people
who are poor through failure of crops,
instead of through shiftlessness is by no
means an unmixed evil. Wasco county
can furnish homes for hundreds of fam
ilies, but it wants those families to come
here of their own accord, instead of be
ing tempted here by false representa
tions. We want no boom,. nor no boom
chasing residents, but rather that class
of people who read, consider and reflect
before either leaving the homes they
have or seeking others that they know
naught of.
We are growing in population steadily,
and that growth is a healthy growth.
By all means let it continue at that.
.Every winter the charitably disposed
people, and the charitable societies here
are taxed severely to support a lot of
new-comers who are helpless and shift
less. The" helping hand extended , to
those who are unfortunate, where sick
ness or accident have brought an extra
expense, is all right, but to deliberately
import people who are unable to take
care of themselves is the acme of folly.
A steady, healthy growth is all that the
country desires, all it requires.
KISSING FOR REVENUE ONLY.
A peculiar suit is pending in New York
state. Miss Mueller gave free kisses at
a church festival for the benefit of the
church. A fellow with money in his
pouch attended and he planked down
his spondulics for a kiss. He got it and
liked it, and kept on paying and kissing
nntil he emptied his wallet. Thinking
over the sweetness and satisfaction of
the osculatory performance, he concluded
to marry Miss M. that he might get his
kisses free of charge. He proposed, she
consented, then he backed and declared
he would not hang his fortunes . to a girl
who would dispense her kisses so freely,
even if it was tor church purposes. And
now there is a suit for damages. Of this
affair the Washington Post says : "At
first the lady wept, refusing to be com
forted, and, after indulging her grief for
a fortnight, she went to see a lawyer and
her suit for breach of promise is now on
a court docket. The case of Mueller
versus Corning promises to have an at
tractive and illuminating influence.
One of the results of the trial may be a
discouragement of public and promiscu
ous kissing as means of 'raising money
Kissing for revenue only is not the ideal
style of osculation. Somehow, it hasn't
the right flavor."
The Oregonian thinks the system of
maintaining convicts in the penitentia
ries as gentlemen ; keeping them clad
in citizens clothes, and making trusties
of them a failure, or at least thinks
the system has not proved a suc
cess in the state of Washington. Rea
soning from the same premises, all per
sons do not arrive at the same conclu
eions. Now, it strikes us that the system
condemned by the Oregonian is the
proper one. The only trouble in Wash
ington was that the system was not car
ried far enough. If one of the trusties
had been- made warden everything
would have gone along all right. One
of the life-time convicts, if made war
den during life or good behavior, would
have been glad to draw the ealary, and
would have been content with that. He
would have seen that the books were
properly kept, and knowing that he had
a "life appointment," he would notouly
have done his work conscientiously, but
would have become reconciled to his
fate. By all means let the Washington
legislature provide for officering the
penitentiary with criminals who have
already been convicted; let them be
raised from the ranks, so to speak, for
then the state would know that there
was no invidious distinctions between
those sent to the pen, by the judges,
and those sent by the governor.
General Wade Hampton advocates a
system of train protection to railroad
trains against robbers. His idea is
messengers and shotguns. The remedy
Is not in this line. Train robbing will
continue as long as d d fool judges
allow smart lawyers to pull the' wool
over the eyes of an ignorant jury. When
the punishment is made certain, speedy
and severe, train robbing will fetop and
not before. The ofTenee should be made
punishable with death, because 'if mur
der is not done, the parties go prepared
to do it if necessary, and if it is not dine
it is simply because the resistance is not
sufficient to demand it. As long as
Chris Evans and such aa he are made
heroes of and sent to the pen instead of
to where they belong, that long train
robbing will be considered a necessity by
the criminals. As it id the government
encourages train robbing and is. itself
criminal.
Senator Dolph is vigorously champion
ing the construction of the Nicaragua
canal. It ought to be built, and the
Dnited States ought to control it. More
power to his elbow is the earnest wish
of every businees man on the Pacific
coast.
A Bard Trip.
On Sunday Mr. T. P. Madill, who
lives 50 miles from Albany, on the North
Santiam, with the assistance of two
neighbors; came into the city on a hand'
car, for the purpose of procuring a burial
casket for his father-in-law, Mr. Geo.
W. Whitman, who had died the day be
fore, and returned with it, making the
trip in sixteen hours. Anyone who has
helped to "pump" a handcar up the
grades of the Oregon Pacific on the North
Santiam will appreciate the labor con
nected with the act. Albany Herald.
