Many man, in fact many of our most able public men have been killed politically because they were prsat enough to inspire fear in the hearts of all classes of lesser m i and the latter, acting upon th- impulse of their natures, have combined against the nat- u .ader and worked his des tr m. It now sems possible that such is the move against President Foosevelt. . ... i- reac icixing-up over t'-ia discharge of soma colored t -op3 appears in the light of p ,-rit politic and nothing more. An-1 wo have saen the at tempt of certain public men to use the incident to mould a sen t in, antagonistic to Roosevelt. S '.:r as the occurrences of B -aviiifj Tpxr.s. nrp cr-cern-ed there seems no doubt that the P , .juUjj wiinm his auth ority and also from excellent rov.ies. Those who raved a - M-ist the president for his act ion in this matter placed them p before the people in the Ife-hl of actors in ."opera buffa,'' :- -.den beiious attention did th ?y fail to attract. Roosevelt h been damned first for being too sympathetic with the negrc n ; oraia for ill-treatm2nt of the race. JKu it looks somewhat as . though the straw which will be u ed to break Roosevelt's back is t:hethe Isthmian canal- Long before the completion of this canal Teddy will have ceased to ha president. He will have been instrumental in starting one of the greatest public works ever undertaken and the pity is that he could not be retained in some position such as would enable him to superintend the work of construction. But the chances are that' owing to the machina tions of little political wig-wags ha will be obliged to remain a silent spectator to a seige of re tardation and stagnation. Such a course at the isthmus would rrake our people wild. Ruosevelfc will have taken such a prominent part in getting the project under way that he will be h lile 1 as the scapegoat upon which to hang ail blame. And the chances are that he will have to stand for a lot of censure as he will not be in a posit'on to help himself. When Ihe retires from the presidency it seems it would be wise to place him in charge of ailairs at Panama. Ai' or enough failures and dis appointments this may ultimate ly ha dona. Roosevelt's "stren uousity" is needed at the isth mus. PLODDING. The man who plods is the man who succeeds. The man who follows a beaten path is the man who ultimately reaches his des tination saf ely and on time. The pLvtJing man may follow the plo.v, ha may run a clothing store, a bather shop, a bank; he may be a doctor, a lawyer, a prince? or a carpenter, or he may delve in sciences or mathe mitices; but if he plods he suc ceeds. There are exceptions of cor te to all rules, and occasion-! ally a plodder fails, but oftener than not he achieves the object for 'hich he struggles and his efforts are fruitful of results. The man who goes from job to job, who d:ps in here and drops down there; who tries this and dabbles in that, is usually the an who caiLstne world a failure and rails at a fate tnat is nothing more nor less than results due to lack of concentrated effort. , Many a young man and young woman : misses the richest , and best opportunities: of .life by ig noring the thing at hand and set ting forth in que3t of the possi ble "something, somewhere," which shall bring them wealth, position and influence by a quick-arid-easy method unexplainable even to themselves. Let a young man or woman choose carefully some one thing which they de sire to do; one line of work that is congenial and in which they have more than passing interest, and then let them plod. Day" in and day out, from month's end to month's end, year by year, let them plod, plod, plod. Not mechanically, not as an nimal is driven by its master to its daily task, but cheerfully, alertly, eyes pen lor business, for opportun ities, for advancement and self Ynprovement, yet ever plodding, clodding, with no swerving to ght or left, no losing . sight of the original idea. And some bright morning that young per son will awaken to a realization that the destination has been reached, that the victory is won and that success, pleasant and full of buoyant promise, perches upon the banner that has been so courageously held aloof, high above the shifting . winds of doubt and indecision. Shippsrs' Convention. Preparations tor the second CJivc'ition of Oregon Shippers and Producers are being carried forth with much interest by the Albany Commercial club, aud it seems certain that the meeting will be successful, since all other commercial bodies in the state are taking an active part in the ma'ti-r. The date has teen set for January ioth, sessions to be held both in the afternoon and evcuiug. The Telegram says: It is now planned to open the convention with an address by some resident of Eugene, dealing with the work instituted at the recent Willamette Valley conven tion. there. This address wll be made citii'e: by Senator I. H. Binghom or Senator R. A. Booth. An acceptance of the invita tion to make oae of t'ae principal addresses ot the convention has been received from J. N. Teal, of Portland, and Governor Cham-, herl iwi and Judge Stephen A.. Lowell, of Pendleton, are also ex pected to be present: Other pro bable speakers are J. O. Story, of the Stry-Breecner Lumber Company of Portland; B. F. Jones of Independence, represen cative from Polk county and W. M. Kiliingsworth of Portland. All phases of the evils which confront the Oregon shipper and producer are to be consideied. Among other things it is planned to take up the question of an open river from Portland to Eu gene, thus providing opposition to the Southern Pacific ou Valley traffic. The Oreon delegation in Congress will probably be memorialized to work toward that end. "Holy Howlers" tue Latest. In Portland a frenzied mob calling themselves members. of the "Pentecost Faith" but called by the public MHo!y Howlers,'.' is carrying on at a rate that puts the original Holy Roller orgies in the shade. Whites and blanks, men, women and children roll about together on the floor leceiv ing what they call their "Pente cost," and a nine year-old girl has been hypustized iuto the iri- rane belief that she is to be "the bride of the Lord".. A camp laint has been filed and the child is to appear in the Juvenile Court, where the mother will be com pelled to give an account of why she has allowed the little girl to b present at such a place and participate in such revolting prac tices. Young girls are being drawn into the orgies of the sect, waich are described in the Port land papers in this language: 'No effort is made to keep up a semblance of humility or dev ontness. It is nothing- but noise. noise, noise, coupled with the -iiust Mcke.no incantations, dis gusting grovlin in the dirt, immoral conduct as between the sexes, t- say nothing of the revol ting .manner in which" the col a line is abraded." ' : 1 All this :n the name o1 relig ion! and the meetings have so far been unmolested by the police. The Telegram says of them: "It is only too evident that their meetings are rapidly d?gearat ing into spasms of animal fienzv, in which all approach to religious rites is dissipated,' and the whole performance descends into wild and dissolute revelry." .The elect become a passion-drunken mob, uncontrolled, unled and unrest rained. The revival of Holy Rollerism does not seem far distant." Real Estate Transfers. F M Spencer and wife to M B Rankin, 88 acres southwest of Philomath; $88o.
