FOUND GUILTY.
No man is above the law in
reality, and no man should be
allowed to think himself superior
to a power which governs his
fellows. "The same law must
govern the . high and the low
born. There can be no two sets
of laws relating to the same
offense one for the patrician
and one for the plebeian.
To the honor of Oregon this
is proved true in the case of
, United States Senator John H,
Mifioll TVvr mrvro flinn Sfl
years Mitchell was the power be
hind the throne in Oregon in J
-political circles his word was

dience followed. Despite all he
has been in this state, in the
United States, in fact, twelve
men of -Oregon have found him
guilty- Aside from Burton, of
Kansas, Senator Mitchell's case
is an isolated one. During re
cent years half a dozen senators
have been indicted, : but aside
trom these two - there has re-

On many sides comes the ex
pression, 'Too bad ! ' ' etc. Yes,
too bad! But the pity of it all
is that a man so high in public
life should prove guilty. Of his
guilt there is small question in
in the minds of most men. !
How the mighty has fallen!
Strange that a man of his stand
ing, and years of experience,
; his great reputation and many
notable qualities and attributes,
should, in the declining years of
his life, commit an act that will
place a blight on his name, a

THAT LOVING CUP.
When Mavnr Williams' of Pnrt-
land, retired from office theThe day was ideal .and .for miles

coundlmenof that city presented pate m the affair, and show by

Cup. It may not be saying too
may
much to assert the opinion that
the payor most prized the latter
gift. He accepted it with every
sign of appreciation.
Shortly thereafter a bill was
presented the city dads of Port
land that they might pay for the
giit.to tne mayor, inencame to
light the, astonishing fact that
various members nf rhp rnnnm'l
had' planned for the . City of
Portland to pay for the gift they
had presented the mayor. The
mayor keenly felt his position
and frankly acknowledged" that
the situation was unique, in fact,
beyond him, and that he knew
not what to do. : ; r .':
When confronted with the
matter the councilmen declared
that they would be only too glad
to make, up the price of the cup.
However, up to a day or two ago
the councilmen are reported to
have failed' to have produced the
coin for the cup.
Judge Qreff oz Missing.
For several - days there has
been'grefit anxiety teit regarding
the whereabouts of E. P. Gref
foz, police judge of this cityv He
wai -supposed to have goDe to
Portland but . inquiry failed
to show a trace of him iti "that
city. Where he is at present
seems" a - matter calculated to
worry . his " many friends. The
Oregonian of yesterday contains
the following notice:
E. P. Greffor, a jeweler and
police judge of Corvallis, is giv
ing his friers ds and relatives anx
iety because vhe has not been
seen "or heard frcr- since Friday
night. He has Ij.v. suffering
from severe headaciies, . and fears
are expressed that " j:ome . danger
has befallen him. ' ; -

The Woman Suffragist c invention re
cently in at aaiou in Portland was a ue .
ter of attraction. ; It being a national
convention many of the most notablo
women of the country connected with
j.his issue were in attendance. Perhaps
the best known of the lot is Susan P.
Anthony, who has been prominent in
the cause of w jman's suffiage during the
largest part of "two half -centuries this
and the last. Susan will tell anything
but her age, and leaves you tb guees at
that. She says that the only painful
recollection of her childhood was the
scandal connecting hei brother, Marc,
with Cleopatra. But Susan is a grand old
lady, and we honor her for her principles,
and hope that she will liye long and pros

Con Gerhard was an interested specta-
ior and professed to be interested only in
machinery and agriculture; but when he
spoke of Venetian Carnivals, " jumping
Elks and Hannibal Castles as-agricultural
. exhibits we were forced to believe
that he had been nearer, the Bridge cf
Nations than he owned up to.
Summit Celebrated.
Perhaps the liveliest and most
enjoyable day. in the history of
that village was fourth of July,
at Summit. Never has a larger
crowd gathered there than was
present at the celebration Tues
day and everything passed off in
a highly satisfactory manner.
, Tne exercises began at 9:30 when
the parade started. Following
this there : was -music - by ; the
band singing of ' 'America' ' by
the crowd; prayer, T. T- Vincent;
vocal duet, Miss Strouts, Misses
Pettit; reading Declaration of
Independence, Fred Hill; "Star
Spangled Banner," audience;
oration, 1. -1.- Vincent; music,
band; dinner. The subject of
Mr. Vincent's oration was, "Our
National Heritage." a crood

the speaker. The effort is said
to be a most eloquent one, and
that it met with hearty applause
from the - audience need hardly

"The afternoon program, which
began at 1:30, consisted of a
drill by the school children; sev
eral well rendered recitations,
vocal solos and band selections.
all of .which were much enjoyed.
lhe celebration was, m fact, a
a decided success, and one that
will ever be a pleasant memory
for those who attended.
