REGGIXG THE QUESTION.
The Oregonian, in replying to a
remark of The Chkoxiclk, com
plains that "it seems to newspapers
like The Chronicle and there arc
many of them in Oregon perfectly
incredible and incomprehensible
that there should be, or can be, a
newspaper entireh independent of
men or factions, governing its own
actions according, as in its judgment,
public ends are to be served; criti
cising and opposing men at one lime,
and commending and supporting
them ' at another, 'as issues change
or as men's relations to' them
' change."
It does not seem incredible to
The CunoxiCLE that there cau be
newspapers with the utter independ
ence which the Oregonian men
tions, but the Oregonian is rot
among them. No ,itleal of journal
ism can be higher than that pictured
aboye, and were the words applica- j
Tale to the paper which printed them
the enconium would be a gratifying
one. But the course of the 0:
nian has shown time and again that
it is not "independent of men or
factions," but absolutely subservient
to them. If this were not the case,
why does the Oregoniau support the
Simon faction now, when it is known
that Simon and his followers have
broken the peace of the Republican
party in Oregon and wrought havoc
on the welfare of the state by their
hold up of the legislature last win
ter? If the Oregonian.Ls.5Uch a vir
tuous organ, why does it not rise
superior to factions and condemn the
methods used by both the Simon and
Mitchell men, and say to the Bepub
Jicans of the state, "Let us settle this
fratracidal strife, and since it cannot
be adjusted while Multnomah county
is a factor, let the rest of the state
make the party nominations and
leave Multnomah county out until
she learns how better to behave her
self." It is useless for the Oregonian to
Bay that Simon is wholly right and
Mitchell altogether wrong in this
factional fight; it is useless for a
Mitchell paper to say the reverse.
Both have done things entirely rep
rehensible while trying to win the
political struggle, and though each
justified his action, to himself, from
the exigencies of the situation, yet
when it comes to fair speaking, both
fictions are much to blame.
If the Oregonian is such a paragon
of independence, why does it not
cocdemn this factional Sllirit niifl
seek to heal the party's wounds. Tin:
Chronicle is showing more indc-'
pendence in this one article than the '
Oregonian has exhibited in the last
two years, or longer. And yet it
wraps itself in the self-assuraed virtue
of being independent of all factions.
The Oregonian's statements and its
actions (if a newspaper has actions)
are so inconsistent that fair-minded
people place no reliance in neither,

What has become of one David B.
mil of New Yoik? Has he, too,
joined the procession to Klondike?
He has not even been heard to re
mark, of late, that he is still a Dem
ocrat. Bryan is keeping up his detcrmin
ntlon to talk himself into tho presi
dency. His last set speech was fin-
islicd nt '2 a. m., though the dispatches
do not ay when ho began. It will
take moro than Bryan's eloquence to
convince the people that prosperity
is not already here and promising to
come in larger quantities.
When, by process of cremation
Durrant's remains are turned to
ashes, it is to be hoped the San Fran
cisco nutvcjnpcrs wiil let them rest
in peace. Tne public has had a sur
'lfeitof the morbid details of these
famous crimes, though the trial itself
will alwavs remain a notable one In
local annals.
The government customs rccoipts
for Wednesday were $889,024, the
heaviest since the new tariff law
went into effect. All the Dingley
bill needs is a fair chance, and it will
demonstrate to the country the
merit of a moderate protective sys
tern.
rortlanu is making a record in
convicting criminals. Those who
seek to argue that juries fail to do
their duty will have to seek else
where for examples than in Multno
mah count- just at present.
A COMMON MISQUOTATION.
Our Orators Should Rend the Declaration
of Independence Again.
Probably three out of four Fourth of
July orators in their speeches this yeai
quoted the Declaration of Independence
ns claiming that: All men iire created
free and equal." The mistake has been
common In the past and it is r.s preva
lent now as ever. Presidents of the
United States, mentbers of congress,
governors and a host of lesser lights
have made the blunder, and to their
number can be added editors and dis
tinguished orators like the late Henry
Ward Beecher. Nevertheless, the Dec
laration does not Kay that "all men are
created free and equal," and it would
not be true if it did. No person is
created free. He or she is subject for
years to the control of parents or puard
iaus, and natural .laws recorni.t th's
subjection as right. What the Declara
tion does say is that: "All men are
created equal." There may be some dis
sent from that, doctrine, as there is an
evident difference among' men in mental
and physical endowment at birth. But
while the Declaration of Independence
is quoted as saying they are, it had bet
ter be quoted correctly.
Silk from Fish lies'
A French chemist has -recently dis
covered that eggs of certain species of

cocoons. Since the learned Frenchman
began his experiments in this line (in
