The Minnesota health board, agri cultural college experts and dairymen are cooperating to remove the men ace of tuhurcular cows and had milk from that state. It is estimated that It will cost II. 000,000 to cure the tubercular herds, but the money is going to be spent willir.giy in the worthy effort. In the meantime, while the diseased cows are being cured and removed, a simple remedy or preventive of the dancers cf tubercular milk Is given. This remedy is pasteurization of all miik u.ed. This is an absolute pro tection from the dangers of tubercu lar milk, the combined authorities of that state declare. But Minnesota will be rid of her diseased cows, notwithstanding this simple cure, and it is only recom mended as a protection while the im pure milk is used. Pendleton has been pasteurizing a largo part of her milk for the past year. The Pcndieton Creamery com pany installed a pasteurizing plant and has been furnishing sanitary milk to its patrons. If this Is the cure for Impure milk, let us have it extended and enforced. In states where hog cholera is prev alent, the skimmed milk fed to -pigs is pasteurized. Oregon should at least take as good care of her babies as Iowa does of her pigs. Let us en force pasteurization of all milk sold in the markets of the state, if that Is the cure for tubercular germs in the milk. UEPl'ttMCAN KEI'OKM. The San Francisco Star, one of the leading reform papers of the west, after complimenting the East Orego nlan on a recent editorial on the reg ulation cf railroads, says: "We would like to know, then, why a. pa per like the Pendleton East Orego nian, having such advanced views, should think of supporting Taft as a presidential candidate." The East Oregonlan finds con genial company wii Its advanced views among republicans of Oregon, all of whom are supporting Taft and who during the past few years have enacted in Oregon all of the ad vanced laws of which the Star boasts from week to week. Republican Oregon has adopted the initiative and referendum, the direct election of United States senators, the recall, the local option law, the direct primary law, the antl-corruptlon act, the proportional representation law and other advanced laws for the pro tection and enlightenment of the peo ple. And there are thousands o repub licans In Oregon who believe In the government ownership of railroads. Because they are republicans is no reason why they cannot be reform ers. Because they support party nominees and party platforms Is no sign that they are not making Indi vidual and collective progress. The way to get eform is to work for It through th dominant party. Popullstlc Kansas never secured one- tenth of the really progressive laws which republican Oregon has willing ly enacted. If the Star would work with the republican party for the re forms It seeks, It would have the pleasure of seeing, those reforms en acted Into law In a short time. A few reformers In Oregon have Blmply leavened the whole republi- can lump with the leaven of reform and Oregon stands at the head cf the reform states, while yet giving Theo dore Roosevelt 43,000 majority for president In 1904. Xo use to howl for a life time In a minority party for reforms which the majority party wants and will gladly accept it coming from Its own mem bers. ONE EMTOK TO HE KNVIEP. Colonel Ernst Hofer, editor and proprietor of the Salem Journal, is one editor who Is to be envied. While he edits a good paper and enjoys a large income and profit from his business, yet editing his paper Is one of the least of his troubles. Editor Hofer Is a sort of a versa tile Bohemian, who In common par lance of the country, "has many Irons In the fire," and yet he neglects none of them and makes a "go" of every. thing he attempts. While being one of the beot and most vigorous editorial writers in the northwest. Col. Hofer is also a lec turer, reformer, student. He is In terested In strawberry culture and writes a strawberry pamphlet about once every two years. He Is presi dent of the Willamette Valley Devel opment league and at the present time is conducting an educational campaign in the Wallamette valley towns. He is a prominent member of the Oregon normal school board and Is an active reformer In school policies, He is a taxation and land law reformer and is preparing to Issue an exhaus tive review of these subjects to be used in his reform campaign. Colonel Hofer knows the Ins and outs of Oregon politics, can put his finger on the men who are "In. it for revenue only" and is a far-seeing, shrewd, fearless politician himself, although his party, the republican, especially the leaders of his party, have tried to oust him time and time again. He Is an eager student of nature and exults in the discovery of some new fenture about a blackberry, strawberry plant or a rose bush. He is an observant, wide awake thinker, lives close to nature and fills an unlnue place in the journalistic life of Oregon. Hofer "spreads" himself over all of these delightful fields ably and gracefully. He gives expression to just what he thinks in his rnrpr. finds keenest enjoyment In his studies and is surely getting as much out of life as any professional man In Oregon. Hofer Is to be envied by three fourths of the world, because he gets his enjoyment and pleasure out of his work. His profession Is his play ground. How many men can say that much? who was tiii: r.urn:? While all the forces of this great nation are working toward a higher civilization, reformers map out their campaigns for the betterment of mankind, and .the doctrine of the equality of man Is preached from pulpit and rostrum, now and again comes a shock which paralyzes the nation, says the Spokane 'Chronicle. For the crime of one negro, later arrested an 1 certain to receive his just deserts, mob violence caused the death of probably a half dozen whites and negroes in Springfield. No long and bitter fight against the negro had been waged In Illinois, and there was no reason to believe justice would not be meted out, but the brute in mankind took possession and even the rain of lead from the militia failed In part to bring the senseless mob to time. The outbreak is only another re minter that the negro question Is a paramount one in this country. The crime of one turns an entire commu nity against the race. Had the outbreak occurred In the south the northerners would have turned the finger of scorn on the brutes of the south, but In a north ern state, where condemnation of the southern hatred for the negro Is strong, the northerners are forced to face the question frankly. It was the same mob. Trie mob law of the south and the mob law of the north are Identical. Frenzied murderers, bent on wholesale destruc tion, kill and burn Just as a mob might do In Georgia or Louisiana, where the negro Is a much more se rious question. There he dominates In numbers, and only the constant struggle holds him down, else he dbm lnate In fact aa well. The negro problem Is a question which has been dodged ever since the civil war. Such actions aa those at Springfield will not settle the matter. When white men become brutes what can be expected of the colored men who have never had a chance? Beginning September 1 and contin uing tor (0 days, or until October 81. the Harriman lines will again Install the colonist rates to the northwest. Umatilla county should get some ex cellent settlers during tho fall. The success of her crops In this, the driest year of all her years, should cause people to hunger for a. tract of Uma tilla land. The Cregonian cannot become ac customed to sumblt to the will of the people. It has had Its own way in politics so long that It In a punish ment for It to see anybody else have their way. Might as well be recon ciled, old boy; times have changed. The people are IT. PKOGUESS IX CORSETS. It Is not a hundred years ago sines st.ivs for women were composed not of whalebone or hardened leather, but of bars of Iron and steel from tnree Inches to four Inches broad and 1? Inches long. Again, during the reign of George IIT the too of the steel stay busk had a long stocking needle attached to it to prevent girls from spoiling their shape by stooping too much over their work. In the days of Catherine dc Medici 13 inches was tho fashion able size for the waist, and to achieve this an over corset of very thin steel plate was worn. It was made in two Dleces. opened longitudinally by hinges, and was secured when closed by hasp and pin, much like an: ordi nary box fastening. The best corsets today are made on a foundation of Greenland whalebone, which has steadily risen In price dur ing the last 23 years from 13500 to 115.000 a ton. Cheap whalebone can be bought for 1150 to 1200 a ton, but It soon dries and becomes brittle, thU3 spoiling the corset as well as the fig ure. CURED FREXCII MASHERS. American girls, whose Ideas of inde pendence do not agree with those ot the French people, are not bothered by mashers whenever they attempt to gn about unescorted in Paris. Xo French girl whose parents have a proper regard for her, is ever allow ed to do such a thing and the Ide.v has become implanted in the native mind that any young woman who ap. pears alone is at least unconventional. It did not take a young and attrac tive American girl long to learn this fact this summer when site traveled around Paris as she was accustomed to in New York. All manner of men smirked at her. lifted their hat, tried to act as her escort and end--.ivo!-'d to besrln conversations. But every one faded suddenly when she gave him her antl-maher treat ment, which worked better ta.ta a strong right arm. To each she ex tended her hand, palm up. with one of those minute bits of fractional cur. rency that they have over there bal anced on her palm. "Poor man," she remarked in hesi tating French, "I'm so sorry you're so poor you have to beg. Ilr nil the money I have." No masher ever persisted after that. ROYCHOIT IjOYALTY. Loyalty. If yati work for a man. in heaven's name work for him. H he pays you wages that supply your bread ami butter, work for him; speak well of him; stand by him and stand by the institution he represents. If put to a pinch, an ounce of loyalty is worth a pound of cleverness. If you must villify, condemn and eternally disparage, why, resign your position, and when you are outside, damn to your heart's content. But as long as you are a part of the in stitution di) not condemn it. If you do, you are loosening the tendrils that hold you to the Institution, and the first high wind that comes along you will be uprooted and blown away, and probably you will never know why.

OKLAHOMA'S FRIMTCL SOIL. Henry Heard of Shawnee, has three of the champion cherry trees of this state, or of most any state for thnt matter. From these three trees he ha tills year sold fruit to the value of $40. He says that 100 trees like this can be grown on each acre of Okla homa soil; but If this was done there would probably soon be a drop In the price of cherries. Anyway, those folks who said Oklahoma wn.i no fruit country were never worse fooled In their lives. Kansas City Journal. All the world hates a iiultter. COMPETENT JUDGES.
