THIS EARTH.
This earth is not the steadfast
place
We landsmen build upon;
From deep to deep she varies
pace,
And while she comes is gone.
Beneath my feet I feel
Her smooth bulk heave and
dip;
With velvet plunge and soft
N upreel
She swings and steadies to her
keel
Like a gallant, gallant ship. -
These summer clouds she sets
for sail,
The sun is her masthead light,
She tows the moon like a pln
' nace frail
Where her phosphor wake
churns bright.
Now hid, now looming clear,
On the face of dangerous
blue
The star fleets tack and wheel
and veer,
But on, but on, does the old
earth steer
As if her port she knew.
William Vaughn Moody.
It is unfortunate that Secretary
Lane will be unable to devote more
time to consideration
A Ileal of affairs in this state.
Visit Needed. There are some prob
lems of the greatest
importance up in Oregon. This is
true locally and true throughout the
state. Of state wide importance is
the plan suggested for the develop
ment of power at Celllo and the plan
for the .West Extension. It would be
a splendid thing for the secretary to
get over the ground in person while
in the west. If hi could make such
personal inspections of the territory
the information would no doubt be of
great assistance to him when the
time comes for passing final judg
ment upon these various schemes.
But evidently the secretary is a busy
man and will have to hurry, though
he will lose and the state will lose
through his Inability to make a real
visit here.
man. Mr. Lane of the -Interior De
partment, has had a varied newspaper
career. Mr. McAdoo's secretary, B.
R. Newton, was a reporter. Mr.
Bryan's third assistant, D. F. Malone,
has written for the magazines,' and
Mr. Bryan's secretary was a reporter.
"Bob" Rose has a place in the For
eign Trade department and it is pro
posed to make Prof. Ford of Johns
Hopkins. Governor-General of the
Philippines. He is a journalist of
wide experience.
Editors are now representing us in
Switzerland, Costa Rica. Great Brit
ain and Cuba. It may be that what
has so long been predicted, govern
ment by journalism, has come to pass.
IN MIRTHFUL VEIN

Treatment.
If the water board can use hypo
clorlte of lime for the purpose of
freeing the water from the bacclll
that produces the intestinal trouble
that often occurs here in the sum
mer time it will be a splendid thing.
As for typhoid there seems to be no
necessity for any preventative since
we have no typhoid, If we may rely
upon reports to the city and county
health officers.
Now that John Llnd has gotten to
Mexico City and Is being treated with
respect the tory newspapers of Am
erica have ceased to picture him as a
tiny man waving a red flag at a mon
strous bull. Huerta now looks more
like a frog than a bull.
DIFFERENT.
"What," said the visitor to the vil
lage of his childhood, "what's be
come of the one boy I hated Willie
Hawker, the sneak? In prison, no
doubt he bore that on his face."
"Hush!" said the villager. "He is
now Mr. Hawker, the famous million
aire." "What?" cried the visitor, "my
dear school fellow a millionaire! I
must call upon him and revive the
old friendship."
MISCONSTRUED.
Just as Oregon was feeling good
about the fact there were no forest
fires a fire had to break out in the
coast range mountains.
The members of the state board
should call for an inspection of the
Eastern Oregon Hospital about the
date of the Round-up. Everybody's
doing it.
Miss Summer is packing up her
grips ready to travel.
try. There seems
to be a general
disposition to ac
cept Tammany's
charges against him as religiously
true and to consider the New York
governor guilty without a trial.
Why should anyone believe charges
brought by Murphy whom Sulzer has
been fighting and backed by testi
mony from Wall street gamblers
whom Sulzer has been fighting? It
is known that a rnan like Murphy
would do anything to destroy an ene
my. He would not hesitate to manu
facture evidence If evidence could not
be otherwise secured. So would Wall
street brokers. They are noted for
their unscrupulousness and accord
ing to Lamar have to be wolves to
play the game they do.
Sulzer may be guilty but it seems
incredible that a man of his political
experience would have been so rash
as to have used his campaign fund in
the manner charged. A more reason
able view Is that Sulzer's enemies have
doctored up a case against him. It
is not beyond them to do so. They
want to get Sulzer and they don't care
a rap whether they get him by foul
means or fair. Those fellows stop at
nothing.
At any rate the New York governor
is entitled to a fair trial and to be
credited with innocence until he has
been proven guilty. He is entitled to
something: better than an impeach
ment trial before that Tammanyized
New York legislature. On trial be
fore that legislature Sulzer, If as in
nocent as a dove, would have no more
show than the proverbial tallow dog
chasing an asbestos cat through hell.
If Sulzer is tried and Murphy says to
find him guilty he will be found
guilty, no matter what the evidence
may be. If Sulzer is impeached It
will not mean that he will be given
an honest trial it will mean he will
be made to walk the plank.
Whatever Sulzer may be at least he
had manhood enough to refuse to do
the Tammany bidding. The country
should not sit by and see him politi
cally murdered through being forced
into a veritable trial for life with his
bitter foe sitting as Judge and jury.

A state conference of pastors and
teachers in Kansas ha3 brought to
public notice that there are upward
of a thousand abandoned houses of
woship in that state. It is reported
that in the conference an opinion pre
vailed that the decline of popular in
terest in church service is due mainly
to fondness for motoring.
The facts are of more than passing
interest. Kansas was founded hardly
more than fifty years ago by men and
women to whom religion was as the
breath of their nostrils. Zealots in
the cause of abolition and of Christi
anity as they understood it, the Bible
was a household book and worship
something more than a Sunday ob
servance. Their spirit was that of
Puritans going to Armageddon to bat
tle for the Lord. Their songs were all
hymns. Their piety had ever a fight
ing edge on it.
Behold now their grandchildren
scoff at worship, abandon churches
and take to Sunday joyriding!
This is the progress of bumper
crops and high prices. Too much fat
in the land, too much milk and honey
in the streams, too many chicken din
ners for harvest hands, too many way
side inns where forbidden waters are
sweet, and though secret are abund
ant, too many good roads for swift
riding where the corn grows high and
riders can't be seen, too many mo
tors for the farmer's sons and also for
the farmer's daughters. With these
impulses pressing through the week,
Kansas can't sit still on Sunday.
