Intemperate Language
Labor Learning Irom Morgan.
To Enforce Economy-
Tho present period appears to be
one of intemperate langunge. The
strenuosity of life seems to have got
into speech, and upon all sides
there is the spectacle of grave and
revereud professors, earnest min­
isters and serious reformers, both
men and women, giving expression
to most extraordinary and exagger­
ated statements. It is doubtful
whether they believe them them-
aelves, and yet they propound them
with as much emphasis and enthus­
iasm as if they did.
The columns of tho newspapers for
tho last two or three days contain
numerous illustration of this tend­
ency. The leader of the Afro-Amer­
ican Loague, now in session >u
Washington, adviseB his hearers to
secure equal rights for the race by
"waste, blood and desolation in the
South.”
A prominent Jewish
preacher falls foul of Sunday school
books, nnd because one of them
contains something which ho can­
not reconcile with divine goodness
bo condemns all of them in an in­
temperate explosion
of
verbal
wrath. A clergyman at the bend of
an important boys’ school iu New
Jersey says: "I would rather have
a student killed occasionally in a
garre o f football than to have all
the boys rot to death in college.”
Of course, if nil the students in our
colleges were rotting, it would be
more economical to kill off one now
and then, but as none of them are
rotting, the dominie is simply in­
dulging in intemperate speech.
A minister in Brooklyn declares
from his pulpit that a certain
United States Senator is "a scound­
rel and a blackguard, who, if he
does not receive bribes himself,
passes them on to his friends.”
This is intemperate language.
It
is particularly intemperate as com­
ing from a clergyman at the sacred
desk. Still another clergyman in
New York denounces all modern
novels and pronounces tho libraries
which circulate them, a curse. This
also is on intemperate speech. An
excellent women addresses a cul­
ture club and llies in tho face of two
centuries of critism aud study by
declaring that Shakospoare would
have been shelved long ago but for
tlie actors who occasionally produce
liis plays. This is an extraordinary
instance of verbal intemperance.
Another prominent woman address­
es auother woman’s club and char­
acterizes school examinations an
"nerve-racking and torturous” for
children. And yet school examina­
tions were never so easy or formal
as now.
And 30 it goes all along the lino.
Tho White House has a new piano.
One correspondent says it cost
$5,000, another $10,000, another
$15,000. One says it is gold-plated,
another says it is solid gold, still
another manages to add silver,
bronze and ivory to its exterior,
when the truth probably is that
some one has given the government
a uioe piano with some gilding on
it, which nice pianos are apt to
have. Fortunately, most of this
intemperance of language is harm­
less, for the facts come out sooner
or later. Yet now and then the ex­
aggeration gets so much the start
of the fact that the latter is a long
time overtaking it There does not
seem to be any special cure for this
almost universal recklessness of
speech, nor is there any good rea­
son for except that there come times
when people like to excite notice by
extraordinary statements and arouse
sensation by wild exaggerations.
We appear to be in the midst of
such a season It will have its run,
and then we shall get down to facts.
— Chicago Tribune.
Labor unions are going to school
to J. Pierpont Morgan. The les
son they have learned to date is,
If you’re going to combine, make it
a big ono. The brukenien, no nmt-
tcrjhowever well organized, are not
able to enforce a demand for better
pay from a “harmonized” railroad.
The Carpenters’ Union is not strong
etiough of itself to enforce a do
tnand for “ fair” conditions of the
building trades employers. There­
fore the moral is borne in to them
that they must extend their affilia­
tions, that they must become in
dustrial combinations instead of
merely class unions, and that it may
bo possible to meet organized cap­
ital with organized inti try.
Both of these manifestations have
come to the surface in Portland in
the past few days. One of them is
in the form of a movement to get
all railroad employes into one or­
ganization, which would supersede
the separate brotherhoods of the
engineers, conductors and train­
men. The idea is not a new one
hut it depends for its develoyment
upon the conditions introduced by
the recent railroad combinations.
The other manifestations is in the
form of a lumbering project in
which union labor would control
tho forest and every stage of tlie
timber product to the completed
buildiug. This is precisely on the
lines of the Morgan steel trust.
Will these combinations do what
iB expected of them? It is to be
feared that they will not—neither
the capitalistic nor the industrial
nor the labor organizations. The
most that may be hoped for is that
they will for a time preserve a sort
of balance between tho various
agencies of production nnd distribu­
tion.
The great financial combinations
that control the ruilroads and so
many of the industrial forces of the
country are not on a basis that
promises permanence.
They are
largely underwriters’ schemes, and
when they have paid promotion
profits, hard times will probably
sweat tlie water out of them and
they will be ready for a new deal.
But labor is hardly iu position to be
thus exploited, at least not with
equal profit. It may be that the
coalition of the opposition will serve
to press together labor elements
that would surely fly apart but for
such pressure, and from this ar­
rangement a • measure of good may
come. But at the first opportuity
the laborer will join the ranks of
capital, and until the lot of labor
shall be made desirable for itself all
adjustments are but temporary. In
this manner does human society
progress, with prodigious wear and
tear, but still working out some­
thing for the benefit of the raoe.—
Oregonian.

Dr. Gibbon
Representative Kramer’s bill for
a law punishing bribery iu political
conventions should receive the sup­
port of every member of tho Legis­
lature. The sale or purchase of a
vote or a proxy iu a convention is
just ns much against public policy
as the bartering of votes at an elec­
tion. Conventions now have the
recognition of law. In many coun­
ties a nomination is practically
equivalent to an election, but
whether it is or not, the nomination
of any candidate should not be se­
cured by the use of money. Should
we ever reach thnt period iu gov­
ernmental evolution when United
States Senators will be elocled by a
a vote of the people, a sent in a
state convention will bo prized
nearly as highly as a seat in tlie
Legif laturo today. As members of
the Legislature are selected largely
with regard to their probable pref­
erences in the choice of a Senator,
much more would delegates to a
convention. It is common knowl­
edge that proxies in conventions
have been bought and sold. Trans­
actions of this kind should bo pun­
ishable by the imposition of heavy
penalties.— Oregonian.
For Just Taxation.
The Oregon legislature bus be­
fore introduced for the purpose of
forcing non-resident timber land
speculators to pay their portion of
taxes. The title is as follows:
“ A bill fer an act to require the
assessors of various counties of Or­
egon to procure from the local land
office or the gctieral land office at
Washington and from the state land
office, lists of all titled timber lands
in their respdbtive counties, and to
classify such lands at their actual
value according to the quantity of
timber thereon, and to assess the
same nt its actual value; am! requir­
ing county courts of the several
counties to pay for suoh lists,
---------—
Formalin is proving its claim as
a cure tor blocs! poison.
It is ad­
ministered by injection into the
veins in solution of 1-5000.
John Markle’s defense is very
much in the nature of a plea of con­
fession o d avoidance.
“The county expenditures of every
county in the state of Oregon shall
be confined to the amount of the
annual levy therefore; and members
of the County Court or Board of
County Commissioners or any other
county official, who shall authorize,
incur, cause or create or officially
approve expense or liability for the
county in excess of the amount of
the levy that may have been made
for county expenditures, shall be
jointly and severally liable, individ­
ually and personally, for the amount
of such excess. County expendi­
tures shall include roads, bridges
nnd ferries, support of poor and in­
terest on warrants, as well as the
usual and ordinary expense of the
county government und salaries,
heretofore included in the classifi­
cation of county tax and road tax;
but Bball not include school, park,
library or bounty tax.
The County Court or board may,
if they deem it necessary, order aud
direct a special levy to be made of
not exceeding one-half mill on each
dollar of valuation to raise funds to
meet any unforseen contingency,
whioh in their judgment should be
dealt with in order to prevent seri­
ous loss or injury to the county.
The funds thus raised shall be set
opart and used for such contingency
only.”
It seems to us that there is some
question as to the merits of such a
measure.
As the same board has
the power to set the amount of
taxes to be paid, there will be no
danger of their ever having a de­
ficit to make good, but they will
only be a little more liberal in sot-
tiug the percentage of taxation.
It is not the board or court that
spends the least money that is the
most economical, but it is the one
who spends it to the best advan­
tage, let tho sum be large or
small.
The economical county court is
the one composed of men of broad
and liberal ; :eas and good, sound
judgement who are above potty,
selfish Bchomes for the benefit of in­
dividuals, and who will look out
for the welfare of the general pub­
lic.
