M'KINLEY MEMORIAL. INDIAN SUPERSTITION. Individual Execution for the Crime of Witchcraft. The Indian murder case of Umatilla county, wherein Toy Toy and Colum bia George were convicted of killing Anna Edna, an Indian medicine wo man, has a parallel In an Alaskan in cident which has just been disposed of by the courts. Columbia George and Toy Toy, two Umatilla Indians, killed the medicine woman as tho result of, or edict of an old tribal custom which doomed to death the false medicine man or wo man, on the grounds of witchcraft. There was no doubt about tho guilt of the parties, but tho defense was made on the ground of the old tribal custom and Its seeming fatality In Half a Million Dollars Has Been Col lected.

With bur state entering upon n now era of development there is urgent need of a better business program be ing put into operation for our stato government, Washington Is developing rapidly, and In Governor Mcltrldc the people seem to have a leader who Is laylrp tho groundwork for greater things. Ho will carry tho legislature with 'htm to make the corporations the servants Instead of tho masters of tho people. Oregon, with a stato tax of over 12 mills, needs a complete recon struction of Its state system of rais ing revenues. 1st. According to the republican platform, all stato officials should be put on a flat salary and cave $50,000 a year. 2d. The Insurance tax should he extended to nil untaxed franchises, so as to yield about $150,000 a year rev enue. 3d. All ldlo school funds should be loaned out and made to yield nt least $25,000 rovenue a year. 4th. With tho initiative and refer endum In full operation the legislature would be held down nbout $250,000 a year on appropriations. A program like this would make a change of $500,000 a year to tho good, and that much monoy would stay in the pockets of tho taxpayers. Then it would be possible to reduce tho state taxes. These objects are worth flghtnlg for at tho special ses. slon and at tho regular session. The fight for these changes must bo made. It was well started nt tho con ventions in tho last campaign, and was glen a great impetus by Gover nor Chamberlain in his campaign of tho state. The people arc being educated along these lines and will demand theso reforms with greater earnest ness until they get them. Public men will be raised up who will quit trifling with playing person al politics and who will strike tolling blows for theso reforms. If Governor Geer would master tho situation in Oregon along these lines and place them before tho people ho would strike a blow for progress and put Oregon to tho front. ThiB state is between Washington and California and has a hard posi tion in tho rncl for development, Tho peoplo would back Governor Geer in a fight for any of theso roforms as they will back Governor McBrlde In Washington.
