GOOD OMENS FOR THE SESSION.
Despite the anticipated fight over
the organization of the Oregon leg
islature, that body settled down to
business on the afternoon of the first
day.
This Is a good omen. It gives
promise of a busy, fruitful session.
With an overwhelming majority In
the Oregon legislature, there Is a
deep responsibility upon the repub
lican pirty of Oregon. Whatever is
done, whatever results from the ses
sion, must of necessity be due to
the action of that party.
The responsibility cannot be shifted.
If the past extravagances of the
legislature in clerkship hire, luxuries
and needless expenses are eliminated,
the present session will endear Itself
to the people.
The senatorial fight has been
practically . eliminated in advance;
the early organization of both houses,
and the beginning of actual business
before sunset on the first day of the
session, gives promise that the party
in power realizes Its responsibility
and will endeavor to clear up the
political atmosphere of the state and
meet public issues fearlessly, and in
a practical manner.
Heretofore the political rings have
ruled the state. With the Initiative
and referendum and direct primaries,
the people have a hand in its man
agement and the East Oregonlan
fully believes that the present ses
sion of the legislature will be the
best ever to assemble in Oregon.
And if this proves to be true, It
will be due wholly to the fact that
the rule of the ring has been crush
ed out by popular legislation con
ceived and initiated by tbe people.
JACOB A. I! IIS.
It has become such a widespread
American habit to lionize men be
cause of their wealth, that it is al
most past comprehension that a man
should Me lionized for humble work
among the poverty-stricken wretches
of the slums.
This work Is so unremuneratlve, so
far from the commercial spirit of the
aje, that it seems unreasonable that
real iv .-.He, brilliant men should be
engaged In it If we look upon it
from the commercial standpoint.
And yet, Jacob A. Rlls, the newspa
per man and lecturer who comes to
the Fnizer theater next Friday night,
with an Intensely interesting lecture
on the otiier side of life in New York
has made a world-wide reputation
upon his sell-sacrlf!clng work In the
slums.
Touched by the unspeakable suf
fering of the poor. Impressed with
the horror of pinched, Infirm, de
creplt human life, crowded Into Its
narrow cellars in the great metropo
lis, lacob Rlls when a young man
resolved to devote his life to bet
tering the condition of the miserable
wretches In the slums, and to this
end .has bent his splendid energies
for a q.tarter of a century.
He has not only worked with hands

and fine noes for the betterment of
the miserable poor, but he has wield
ed a masterly pen, pleaded for them
with a marked and Impressive elo
quence and has placed himself before
the world as an advocate for the
slums.
Mr. Rlls will be heard In his best
lecture on this subject at the Frazer
Friday night. Into this lecture he
hns concentrated all tho power and
eloquence of his nature and presents
a thrilling picture of that great seeth
ing under world which lies In the
rhadows, next door to Wall street
and Fifth avenue.
MlSSOl'RI TO THE FRONT.
Missouri In politics, as in most other
lines of business, is a natural leader
and the announcement that Champ
Clark will wrest the leadership of the
house of representatives from John
Sharp Williams of Mississippi, will
give Mlssourlans a thrill of pride,
whithersoever dispersed over the
world.
A dispatch from Jefferson City to
the Chicago Tribune says of the com
ing contest for the democratic leader
ship: There is to be a great revolution
in the democratic political camp.
Pledges have been given which Insure
the election of Champ Clark of Mis
souri, to be democratic' leader In the
house of representatives, and the
party condidate for speaker in place
of John Sh-iro Williams of Mississip
pi, the present leader.
The campaign for the position of
Williams has been going on quietly
for a long time, until now pledges
from old members who have been
re-elected to the 60th congress and
from new ones who will come Into
the house at the same time, have
r?ached a number sufficient to in
sure the control of a democratic cau
cus in behalf of the Missouri repre
sentative, i J
This change Is of immense import
ance, because It Involves a great deal
Ir. the way of presidential politics, aa
the democratic candidate for speaker
will not be proposed until Just before
tl e oper.'ng of the first session of
the next congress in December next
From that time on candidates for
the presidency and vice presidency
wlil be busily engaaed in different
states, and the influence of demo
cratic representatives in congress
will have a good deal to do with dic
tating the nomination.
Mr. Williams' friends do not give
up the fi?ht yet. out there is every
reason to believe the pledges for
Clark constitute a clear majority of
the caucus.
All honor to the man who climbs
up and out from an unfavorable en
vironment to a better station than
that occupied bv his ancestors! It
is easy enough for the son of a states
man, reared in an intellectual atmos
phere, tausrht statesmanship from
cblMh-rod," brought up to be a student
ar.1 a thinker, to he a statesman.
But for the son of a hod-carrier to
come up from his environment, after
centuries of hod -carrying ancestors
before hin, is a personal triumph
which should command the deepest
respect of the world. That man de-so.-ves
most who breaks away from
the fixed destiny of ancestry and
climbs slnele-handpd and alone, to a
hlsher srhere of action, with noth
ing but his own personal effort as a
lalder.
CHARACTER BUILDING.
Just as a building is erected by ad
hering to the original plan of the ar
chltect, Instead of branching off in
various directions, according to the
whim of the builder, so are formed
the character and life-structure of
the young man who carefully plans
and patiently works along the lines
decided upon, strong and complete,
rich and perfect. In accord with the
Ideals of his choice. The Business
Philosopher.
Bettor Pay fw .Mull Curriers.
Unless the government pays the ru
ral carriers better salaries, It will be
Impossible to keep competent men In
the service. It is unreasonable to ask
these people to work for nothing and
find themselves. This Is peculiarly a
farmers' mutter and every farmer
should urge his congressman to vote
for better pay for the carriers. We
are pleased to see that Postmaster
General Cortelyou strongly recom
mends the Increase In his recent an
nual report. American Farmer.
The percentage of deaths among the

THE WATCH ON THE RHINE.
Written by a manufacturer of
Wurtemberg In 1840, when France
was threatening the left bank of the
Rhine. It was set to music by Carl
Wllhelm, and during the Franco-Prussian
war of 1871 was adopted as the
national folk hymn and rallying cry
of the army.
A voice resounds like thunder peal,
'Mid dashing waves and clang of
steel:
"The Rhine, the Rhine, the German
Rhine!
Who guards today my stream divine?"
Chorus.
Dear Fatherland, no danger thine;
Firm stand thy sons to watch the
Rhine!
They stand, a hundred thousand
strong.
Quick to avenge their country's
wrong;
With filial love their bosoms swell,
They'll guard the sacred landmark
well!
The dead of an heroic race
From heaven look down and meet
their gaze;
They swear with dauntless heart:
"Oh, Rhine,
Be German as this breast of mine!"
While flows one drop of German
blood.
Or sword remains to guard thy flood.
While rifle rests in patriot hand.
No foe shall tread thy sacred strand!
Our oath resounds, the river flows.
In golden light our banner glowsi
Our hearts will guard thy stream di
vine;
The Rhine, the Rhine, the German
Rhine!
Dear Fatherland, no danger thine;
Firm stand thy sons to watch the
Rhine!
From the German of Max Sehneck
cnburger. THE ROCKY .MOUNTAIN CM n.
In New York a movement has been
started to found an organization to be
known as the Rocky Mountain club.
says an eastern dispatch. The plan Is
to gather western men together into
a great club for both social and pub
lic purposes. The club rooms will con
stitute a home for western visitors,
while the club will work as a body in
advancing western Interests,
Any who have ever lived in the
mountain states will be eligible to
membership as well as persons still
residing In the far west.
The Idea originated at the annual
dinner of the Society of Montana, a
committee being appointed to com
municate with others, and as a result
a larger number of appllcat'ons have
been received from all parts of the
west, the number already reaching
1B0.
All former and present residents of
Colorado, California, Oregon, Wash
ington, Utah, Idaho, Montana, Ari
zona, Nevada and New Mexico are eli
gible to membership. The Idea has
taken so well that It is expected that
the club will start off with a mem
bership of sufficient proportions to in
sure Its success.
THE MAN WHO WINS.
The man who wins Is ,the man who
does,
The man who makes things hum and
buzz,
The man who works and the man who
acts.
Who builds on a basis of solid facts;
Who doesn't sit down to mope and
dream,
Who humps ahead with the force of
steam,
Who hasn't the time to fuss and fret,
But gets there every time you bet.
