MITCIIEJJ,JiaJUlSSGXJJU The gratifying intelligence came yes- terday that Senator Mitchell had con- ferred with the war department regard ing the amount needed to complete the Cascade locks, or make them ready for operation, and would introduce an emer gency measure, adding thiB amount to the general appropriation bill. This action of Senator Mitchell is decidedly opportune, and no part of his offic'e' career will be followed with closer inter est than his efforts toward securing th appropriation deemed necessary Defor it e lonka can he onerated. ,Thathepese"nt occasion should not have arisen, is generally conceded. The engineers have been working on the plans for years and had ample time to consider every detail incident to a work even of this magnitude. No one con nected with the locks lias ever been hur ried and the fact that such an egregrious blunder has been made cannot well be explained upon the hypothesis of pon intent. The people of Eastern Oregon have ljeen put "in a hole" from which Sena tor Mitchell is making efforts to extri cate them. If he succeed no act he could perform would have more effect in entitling him to the gratitude and sup port of this section. Mr. Mitchell baa been credited with possessing influence equal to any member of the senate, and with knowing how to secure the passage of a measure when he desires it. He never had a better opportunity to show his worth than .at this juncture, when tbe eyes of the people are t urned upon liim. If this emergency Measure pass, it would be well if some means conld be adopted to secure tbe wise use of the money and a guarantee given that this appropriation would finish the work, and the men in charge not have the op portunity of saying again "The locks cannot De operated till we get more money." WHERE POLITICIANS THRIVE. The people of Portland cannot com plain of uninteresting politics. The de velopments of the .past few days have strengthened the belief, generally held, that the coming local campaign will be one of the very warmest ever held in Multnomah county. The Oreeonian of yesterday comes out in a double-leaded article, slating that it is time for the people to . understand what is going on, and seek measures to down the friends of Senator Mitchell, whom the Orego nian declares are using that gentleman's name as a mantle to hide their own self seeking. Multnomah county is suffering from too much politics. The interests of the taxpayers are made of less account than the ambitions of the men who make politics a trade ; but the course of the Oregonian will have little or no effect in bettering the' situation. To sing Joe Simon's praises, while running down his enemies, has too much the sound of self-interest to be commendable to in telligent voters. One trouble with Port land is that it has been bossed too long by Joe Simon and the crowd whose idol he is. : Politics have reached such a low ebb that any change will be for the bet ter. An attempt to cry down the men who are fighting Simon because of that reason, cannot hope for success. A new deal is needed all around, and Simon, as well aa the obnoxious men in tbe other camp, should ; be relegated to the back ground and the people given a chance. Tbe entrance into politics of every high minded and honest citizen would Boon break the rale of tbe bosses. It seems almost incredible that the vast sums which have been appropriated for the construction of tbe locks have been so epent that the appropriation is exhausted and the work unfinished. If the government engineers and the brace of contractors had treated. the people with the same fairness that congress has, boats would now be passing through the canal. If the men who are ranning tbe thing, or rather failing to run it, could be deposed for a time, enough money and men could be gathered to go down . and plaster those unprotected sides with rocks so that the banks wouldn't wash away. It would be most unfortunate if the government en gineers who have been at the locks from time to time, would lose their positions, for it is doubtful if they could, get em ployment elsewhere when it was known that they drew plans which, when the work was done according to tbe specifi cations, bad made it so tLat the canal could not be operated. . The senatorial situation in Kentucky has become critical, and probably today or tomorrow . will see someone selected. Although the step is not one which can always be taken with commendation, yet if the election of a Republican proves impossible, rather than see a deadlock and the state but balf represented, or a Populist chosen, we hope the Bound money men in both parties will unite upon Carlisle. If a Democrat must go, no man within that party can be chosen who will suit the country better than '.Carlisle. Besides, he will soon be out of a job, and after tbe next election the Republican majority in the senate will be so large that Carlisle's vote for free trade will avail nothing. 1 ns-ssfp-m The Klickitat Republican comes out . favor of Levi Morton for the presi dency. It remains to be proven what particular superiority Morton possesses over the other gentlemen who are seek ing this honor. He would make a better esiJeut undoubtedly than any Demo crat that could be named because he be lieves in the restoration of a wise pro tective policy and the maintenance of a strong financial system, but there are other Republican leaders whose services entitle them to this recognition far more than Morton's. We hope our neighbor ing paper will not raise its hopes too high, as they are doomed to a certain disappointment. Auction Sale. Wednesday at 11 a. m. J. B.
