In several papers In various parts of the state articles have appeared , lately in which it Is set forth that cer;.'.;n statement No. 1 members of the legislature will vote for Cham-land ber'uin for senator, but that they will - do so against their wishes and with a sense of martyrdom. This is alright It is creditable that the statement members are going to keep their pledges like men. But alter all they will be merely show ing common honesty nnd they will not necessarily be entitled to seats In heaven because they perform a plain duty. When a man or a horse, goes upon the track and wins a race upon his merits he is entitled to the prize. He Is given the same as a matter of form and the people do not regard the Judg.-s as especial models of virtue because they award the honor to tlr? righteous winner. The race betwen Chamberlain and j Cake for the senalorship was an open contest. All the conditions were Itrmvn before th" "'art "nd tin the-- the contestants were agreed, f'haniberlain's victory was complete and th- enatoriil tog-.i Is rightfully lis. Common fair play demands thai ti.e governor be elected senator and C" : .-houl 1 be no quibbling about It. The statement No. 1 men pledged th '""'"(! ves to vote for him if he won In the state election and he did. These men constitute a majority of the leg Mature and this being the case there a nothing further to It. Evrr since the election the foes of the popular election of senators have been ransacking the catalogue of ex cuses In order to find a reasonable pieti-xt upon whii-h weak-kneed state ment members, if there are any, mlifht refuse to vote for (governor Chamberlain for senator. But they have not found any and they cannot. The statement No. 1 legislator who n fa-es to vole for the governor, no i.ir.trer what his excuse may be, will be doit:- ;i r-r-iok'-l act arid all the people of Oit-y". will kiriw It. Any one v-ho a'-ks a. statement No. 1 man to break his pledge Is himself dis 1 i m.o fur he ' :-;-!t- be a party to a dlionet de.J, a si'Li-:mii showing. Some people do not know It, but I: I H fact that the attendance at the diftriet fair this year has b-en much better than ever before. Hy the cold figures, In thf box of f.ce It Is shown that on the opening day the attendance was 40 per cent greater than on the same day hint year. For yesterday and the day be fore the attendance was about 311 per cent greater than for the corres poiullns days n year ago. This Is a fine showing for two dull, dry counjles to make. It Is an es pecially creditable shosvlng for Pen dleton, Iwiiuxe the town Is now sup posed' to be "dead." Put the fair deserves the Increase 1 patronage. It Is a better fair than has ever been held before. The pa vilion Is larger and more rotiveii iintly arranged; the exhibits are bet ter and the program likewise shows Improvement. The people who attend the fair are showliifr good Judgment and if there are some who have not yet pmie they should speedily follow the example. .TAX JAXOFF 1DI IIKX. The plight of Jan Janoff Pouren, a Russian refugee now held In tlv? Tombs prison. New York, awaiting the outcome of extradition proceed ings, has brought his Americanized countrymen to his defense. In order to prevent the return of Pouren' to Rusla, where It Is rep resented a horrible death awaits him. the Russian Jews of New York are appealing to the president and public opinion In this country. "Little celebrity attaches to this case," say Pouren's compatriots. "The defendant Is a man of no marked personality, and his alleged acts fail to distinguish him among numerous other refugees from the Russian pro vinces. But that very obscurity sug gests the gravity of the situation. His mediocrity shows that the case Is brought as a test, and his parity with others Indicates that efforts will be made to give the precedent thus form cO a wholesale application. 5o firm- I ! does the bureaueraov now hold Russia In its clutches that It has a tentacle free to reach out over seas after fugitives abroad. Having In duced us to violate the honor of 13:' yars by betraying this confidence. It will claim a right to drag aa Indefi nite number of Its exiled subjects Irom our asylum." As to the merits of this particular case the president must decide. But If they are as his Americanized coun trymen claim, It would be a burning shame to send Pouren back to Rus sia. Political conditions In that despot-rldd'-n country are black as hell, ac cording to undisputed authority. xne mPre reading about them Is suf- fluent to make one's blood boil. Men who dare to Incur tiie displeasure of the police are thrown into dirty Jails treated to Inhuman cruelties, j surely there Is some place of refuge for these poor wretches and where can suh be found If not under the Stars and Stripes? THERE'S A REMEDY. Eecause the East Oregonian pub lished an interview yesterday In which Dr. Smith blamed the city water sup ply for much of the typhoid now pre vailing It has been accused by some short-sighted people of knocking th town. But a town does not grow and prosper by ignoring or blinking at It remedial defects. The way to do is to courageously meet them face to face and then set about to correct the evil with all speed poKisblc. That the present water s upply is not adequate for the n-nl-'of the' town everybody knows. If the (U.'il- I ity of water H not what it should be the people should know that also. Tin i water commissioners should know It. If they do not. and the knowledge should strengthen them In their re- solve to provide a gravity water sys- tern. Pendleton was glad to have the first convocation of the new Episco pal district of eastern Oregon. II trusts that the bishop and the rectors who were here enjoyed their stay and found the meetings full of profit. The grand jury Is still at work and late results show that there were sev eral kinds of fish within the "net."
