It is said that St. Louis' was selected for the Democratic Con vention city, instead of Chicago, because Hearst had a paper in Chicago. Now Willie threatens to start another Yellow Journal in St. Louis, to whoop it up dur ing the convention. A Happy Hooligan and Mrs. Katzenjam mer department will not be nec essary for this paper, as Bryan will write the editorials. jfi . One more question regarding the Portage Railroad. If it is going to cost $100,000 for the right-of-way for the canal, where every owner is willing to sell at a fair price, how much is it going to cost for ri-ght-ot-way for a portage railroad where the own ers do not want to sell, and where every obstacle will be thrown in the way by the wealthy owners? How much of the $160,000 will be left when the preliminaries are out of the way and the actual work of railway construction commences ? j j j The Portland gamblers are be coming bolder every day. A poor woman, who had been working as a servant, saved up $165 with which she planned to make a first payment on a rooming house, gave the money to her husband to make the payment. On his way he stepped into Erickson's gambling den, played "twenty one" and lost the $165. Heart broken the woman appealed to District Attorney Manning to re cover her money. He telephoned Erickson and made a statement of the case, asking him to return the money. Erickson's reply was: "Go-to hell!" He didn't go, but issued a warrant instead, and the house was closed. Bail was then put up and the house nnened ncrain. Another warrant. with like Insult. The gambling house is closed permanently till that $165 is collected, me dis trict Attorney will issue a war rant everv dav until he gets the money. The sheriffs office and police seem to be standing in with the eramblers. Truly a savory state of affairs for the metropolis of a great state tnat is looking for immigration. ft As the time tor the June con vention grows nearer, the politi cal pulse is quickening. Who will get the nomination? At present it looks as if Roosevelt carried it in his pocket without question. The democrats have neither policy or candidate. Until ' they do have a paramount issue, there is no possibility of any change in republican senti ment regarding the candidate. The only suggestions of any change come from New York, the state where the unexpected is the thing that always happens. Cleveland carried it in 1882 by a plurality of 192,000 and in 1884 by only 1200. McKinley 268, 000 plurality in r886 and two years after the democrats carried the state by 60,000. New York may well be considered doubtful. Grosvenor so places it in his es timate, and claims a republican majority regardless of its vote. Republican quarrels alone will not give the state to the demo crats, nor will it work harm throughout the country in the national result. One factor is not yet considered. The demo cratic party can always be de pended upon to do the wrong thing at the right time. At pres ent it looks as if that wrong thing was a combination between Bryan and Hearst for the nomin ation of the latter. Let us live and hope. j Ji Jt The Ministerial Association of Portland demands thai the Lewis & Clark Fair shall be closed tight on Sunday. Why shouldn't the Jews come in and demand that it be closed on Saturday? It is the old problem over again, of mak ing people good by law. It Strikes an outsider as strange that the ministers of Portland do not take their own medicine, and practice the charity they preach. With the advantages they really possess combined with the ad vantages they claim to possess, there is no reason whv thpv should not make the attractions' of their services so superior that everyone will flock to them, and the Fair would be deserted on Sunday, even if allowed to open. Perhaps they draw the lesson from past experience, and note tnat without any counter attrac tions they have never vet been able to attract one-fifth of the people of thai citv. The orono- sition is a confession of weak ness on their Dart, which thev ought never to have acknowl edged. Morality by compulsion lasts only while the force that compels it is aDolied. The ciation that claims a moral force behind its teachings, and bv its acts Stultifies its own claims, and thus openly acknowledges that it nas no iaitn in itseir, is losing a large part of the power for eood it ought to possess and wield for tne puonc good. js j& jfc It is often the case that the local newspaper, which does more tor a town than any other agency, is the last to receive encourage ment and patronage it deserves. yet it is expected to use its best efforts at all times on behalf of local enterprises, and to find its chief reward in the consciousness of doing good.
