Men are qualified for civil
liberty In exact proportion to
their disposition to put moral
chains upon their own appe-
ties: In proportion as their
lo"e of justice Is above their
rapacity. In proportion as
their soundness and sobriety
of understanding Is above
their vanity and presumption;
in proportion as they are dis-
posed to listen to the counsels
of the wise and good In prefer-
ence to the flattery of knaves.
Society cannot exist, unless a
controlling power upon will
and appetite be placed some-
where; and tne less of it there
Is within the more there must
be without. It Is ordained In
the eternal constitution of
things that men of lntemper-
ate minds cannot be free;
their passions forge their fet-
ters." Edmund Burke.
be frowned down. The people are ln
terested in securing the best possl
ble service, and nlthough there are
ninny deserving and capable men in
the community, who aspire to office,
there is nothing to be gained by e.'
changiug one capable experienced
man for a capable man not experience
ed. A farmer does not change farm
hands because a new mau wants the
job every month.
Those who are taK.ng steps to test
the validity of the lew on spray.ng
fruit trees, are not friends of Ore
gon. There should be enough pride
and interest among the owners ot
orchards In this state to protect their
orchards, without a law on the sub
ject. It should not be necessary for
the legislature to compel enterprising
farmers and orchardists to guard
their own property by enforcing pre
caution against the spread of damag
ing pests.
There was a refreshing unanimity
of opinion among tne delegates to the
democratic convention, on the vari
ous candidates. The popularity ot
the nominees among all the dele
gates was so great that without dis
cussion or prearranrrement. public
sentiment among the members of the
party had almost nominated the tick
et, before the convention assembled,
except as to details and forms. A
healthy rivalry was exhibited over
tbe office of county commissioner,
and the friends of W. D. Chamberlain
exhibited pardonable pride and inter
est in his candidacy. Outside of these
offices, there was no contest.
Pendleton business men should co
operate with Colonel R. C. Judson,
industrial agent of the O. R. & N.,
In arranging a farmer's congress in
this city, during the first week In
June. Interest in the farmers' club
at Echo has formed a nucleus around
which a farmers' meeting for the en
tire Eastern Oregon district suould
be arranged for this city, county seat
of the banner wheat county and ban
ner wool county of the state. The
O. It. & N. is doing more than Its
share toward the development of
this county, and Pendleton business
men and farmers are invited to co
operate In their own Interest. A
meeting of farmers and stockmen
should be held nere that would
eclipse any Hlmllar meeting ever hold
in the state. Speakers are available.
Interest Is sufficient. The need for
Just such a meeting is undeniable, in
exhibiting to the government tnat the
state is watching irrigation progress
here.
The sentiment of Pendleton Iri fa
vor of public school Improvement
was exhibited yesterday in such a
maimer that it cannot be denied. The
large majority by which the ?60,000
I id ml issue for school improvement
passed. Is the best advertisement
ever issued by this city. It invites
the best class of people from nil over
Eastern Oregon, In search of the
highest school advantages, to loook
toward Pendleton It Invites those
who have considered removal from
the county to Walla Walla and other
cities, to reconsider and build homes
in Pendleton. It will induce proper
ty owners to build substantial dwel
lings in different parts of the city,
und property in the vicinity of the
various new school buildings will
now advance rapidly in value. The
taxpayers of the city are to be con
gratulated on their unqualified appro
val of the plans of the school board
for relief. Pendleton has built up
two goo., private schools, largely by
public subscription, and contributes
to their maintenance monthly. The
vote yesterday to add 300 per cent
to the present school equipment of
this district, is cause for bonfires and
street parades by the lovers of the
public school system.
Chicago may be taken as a repre
sentative American community. The
voters there average up fairly well
with the general run of American
voters. Sentiment tuere varies about
as widely as in otner characteristic
American cities. The scale of vice
and ignorance Is no lower nor the
scale of wisdom and purity no higher
than elsewhere In this country. The
same subject presented under tne
same circumstances there, would re
ceive about the same consideration
and verdict as elsewhere. If these
conclusions are right, a fair estimate
of public sentiment on public owner
ship of public utilities may be reach
ed. Chicago at her recent city elec
tion voted C to 1 In favor of munici
pal ownership of street railways and
voted 4 to 1 on Immediate ownership
on Immediate purchase of the pres
ent system from their arbitrary own
ers. If this Is the extreme ot gov
ernment ownership to which the mo
nopolies are driving the people, the
oppression of these monopolies will
not have been In v-.n. Even the
extremist In municipal ownership
believes in the gradual process of
absorption; he halts at the sudden
conversion of the gigantic private
systems into public property, without
a preliminary reorganization anu re
adjustment. If Chicago's condition
warrants the extreme sentiment ex
hibited. It must be ripe for a change.

his leisure, on what he counts his
own time, pick up at least one new
subscriber a week for the paper he

The writer knows It to be a fact
that Joseph Medill. only a few
months before his death, stopped on
the street an
man who wanted the paper sent to
his house. Horace Rublee. late edi
tor of the Milwaukee Sentinel, was
called to the telephone by the olty
editor one day in answer to a call
from a citizen who had "Important
business" to transact with the editor.
It was a subscription, and Rublee
took It. although had he been a man
of less common sense he might have (

editorials that made him famous, re

scriber and. turning to the city editor
nald:
'Mr. Blank, that was an Important
message. I ve got a new subscriber,
and If we could get SO of 'em this
way every day. I'd quit editorial
work."
Rublee realized how important one
good subscription is to a newspaper.

the paper might be. So did Medill,
