THE ''MAINE."
The news wlHc'a is borne to us to
day Unit tiic battleship Maine was
bbwn to pieces last night in Ilavan
harbor is as startling information as
.it is possible to receive. In the ab
sence of more definite knbwledcc
direct comment is impossible, but
enough is known that a number of
brave American lives arc lost throuy
somebody's treachery. The (lis
patches indicate that the disaster was
caused by an accident, but the
American people are not in a temper
now to believe that the accident was
unintentional. Following so closely
as does this unfortunate affair upon
the action of this government in the
De Lome matter, the American peo
pie cannot be blamed for having
their most active suspicions aroused
If it be true that the Spaniards hat"
a hand in the matter, then war with
Spain is a foregone conclusion, and
if war come, it will mean the utter
extermination of the Spanish re
gime.
The United States government has
dealt ver- leniently with Spain
While it is true that during the last
year the majority of citizens has fa
vored some sort of intervention, the
administration has deemed it wise to
refrain from any decisive steps until
a more fitting occasion should arise
This ma have been sound policy
upon the part of the administration
but the time is coming, or has al
ready arrived, when the so-called
jingo sentiment must be recognized
We must wait for more definite
information before drawing too ad
vansed conclusions; but this much is
true that the administration would
not do an unpopular thing if step?
were taken to intervention in Cuba
and the humilation of Spain.
If war must needs come, the
American people arc ready for it.
The labored dissimulation of the
Oregonian in the matter of the per
sonality of local ''bosses" wlro afllict
the state, city, and the Republican
party, will not deceive many of its
readers. The public knows pretty
well who the most detrimental and
unscrupulous bosses are. It is the y
who have loaded this city with debts,
largely incurred in the working of
big "jobs," such as the city hall, the
reservoirs, and the bridge and ferry
Bales; they who have had charter
laws secretcly changed, and so legis
lated as to keep the city in endless
litigation; they who have more than
once treacherously betrayed their
party and defeated, or sought lo do
feat, its candidates; they who have.
chielly packed our primaries nnd de
bauched our elections; they who
corruptly "held up" the last legisla
ture to the state's great expense,
vexation nnd scandal, and'thc defeat
ofthc people's will.' If the Repub
licans of Oregon desire nnd deter
mine to rid themselves of this co
terie of ''bosses," they will not be in
doubt about who the worst of them

Tho new constitution proposed for
Louisiana wilt 'hardly be submitted
to the people, but simply proclaimed.
This is the southern way when it is
deifred to limit the suffrage. It re
quires that all voters shal be able' to
read and write English or French, or
shall orrn two hundred dollars worth
of property. That can be made to
take in most of the illiterate whites,
what with guns nnd shotcs, nnd ex
clude illiterate Negroes. Indeed,
they think it will exclude 72 per cent
of the Negro vote and let in practic
ally nil tho whiles, which was the
problem to be solved.

The Shakers of Mouut Lebanon, a
community of simple, honest, God-fear
ing men nnd women, have prepared the
Shaker Digestive Cordial for tunny yeare
and it is always tho same, simple, lion
est, curative medicine that lias helped
to make the Shakers the healthy, long
lived people that they are. The Slink
ers never have indigestion. This is
partly owing to their simple mode of
life, partly to the wonderful properties
of Shaker Digestive Cordial. Indiges
tion is caused by the stomach glands not
supplying enough digestive juice
Shaker Digestive Cordial supplies what':
wanting. Shaker Digestive Cordial in
vigorates the stomach nnd all its glnnd
so that after awhile they don't need
help. As evidence of the honeatv of
Shaker Digestive Cordial, the formula
is printed on every bottle. Sold by
