FOHAKEK. THE I.EPEK.
By a cartoon in the St. Louis Post
Disp.itch the plijsht In which John B.
Foraker now finds himself Is strik
ingly pictured. The title of "the
sketch is "Make way for the leper," we wonder that with this gross vio
at.d the Ohio senator Is portrayed as nation of nature's laws, that lias coll
ar old man stricken with the Incur- t'nued through the generations, to
able disease and shunned by his for- I pother with additional stain of al-
luer political associates. It Is a harsh
picture, but it Is true to life.
So odious has become the name of
Standard Oil In the mited States thai
a public man who bears the taint of
association with the giant monopoly
becomes a political outcast. A few
weks ago Foraker was a mighty
sheik in the republican party. Today

life. T'lless he can prove cncHl-1'."-!y
tiial he has been wrongfully a -cused
he Is a dead one. His party
associate? will not and cannot stand
for one upon whom the fatal stench
has been discovered.
Because of the hatred the public
fi els towards the Standard Oil com
pany, there Is room, quite naturally,
for grave Injustice to be done to the
corporation itself and to 'those who
have dealings with it. Standard Oil,
I ke other trusts, is both good nn 1

as scoundrels upon its list of friends.
But the course of Rockefeller's
n mpat-.y has been such that through
out the nation its reputation now Is
that of a grasping, vicious monster
that knows neither honor nor Justice
and grapples with its deadly clutch
t vthii'.g that stands across the path
of its greed.

This day at the district fair has
been dedicated to the pioneers and
J the hardy men and women w ho come
under that class are richly entitled

; them.

Is work still to he done more intel
ligent and thorough than that of the
last.
Hut the pioneers are the men who
have made modern development pos
sible. It was they who broke the sod
and bore the brunt of the frontier
ti il and danger. They the men wh i
really lead in the march of progress.
"Across the world the ceaseless march
of man
Has beM,i through smouldering
fires, left hy the bold,
Who first beyond the guarded out
posts ran
And saw with wondering eyes new
lands unrolled."'
A SOCIAL OCCASION.
"The fair makes people feel good
anyway." said a well known local
man last night as he looked upon the
! lively scene within the pavilion
j was a casual remark, but the man
could not have paid the fair a higher
lomplimeiit if iie had Hied.
It Is a very important matter how
the people of a community feel and
by contributing to their enjoyment
the district fair does good.
I jaan is a social animal ana he iiKes
to meet and mingle with others of
his kind. In doing so he finds pleas-
I ure and profit. Culture and advance
ment conies from association with
others. Isolation Is deadly to pro
gress. During the summer months the
people of Umatilla and Morrow coun
ties worked hard upon the farms, on
the ranges and in the business house.
Because they have toiled and while
doing so have had little time for
thoughts of pleasure their enjoyment
Is now the keener.
