No man, na matter how hon orable, if he attempted anything of a public nature has experien ced clear sailing in the accom plishment of his purpose. Many men, in fact many of our most able public men have been killed naliticauv because they were great enough to insp:re fear in the hearts of all classes of lesser miri and the latter, acting upon the impulse of their natures, have combined against the nat u a: leader and worked his des tr ' n. It now sems possible that such is the move against President Eooseveli;. .; rc'c.-iiC "iacldn?-up over t'u p moiv discharge of sarna colored 3 appe;.rs in the lia"ht of it p:iiti-23 aid nothing Arvl wo have s?en the at- tempt of certain public men to Use the incident to mould a sen- iiu uiiLa;4)ii!sti to iioosevelt. f..r as the occurrences of p- ,c;,.jiif ItVs. nrp cni-cem-ed there seems no doubt that the . .ii uca wiunu his auth ority and also from eKcel'en motives. Those who raved aa-ainst the president for his act ion in thfs matter placed them selves hflforf tiie people in the light of actors in ."opera buffa," mo inucn serious attention did they fail to attract. Roosevelt has baen damned first for bting too sympathetic with the negro rvi -unia for ill-treatmont of the race. it looks somewhat as thouyrh the straw which will be used to break Roosevelt's back is to b the Isthmian canal- Long before the completion of this canal Teddy will have ceased to bo 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 oO superintend the work of construction. But . the chances are that owing to the machina tions of little political wig-wags lu vvill be obliged to remain a silent spectator to a seige of re tardation and stagnation. Such a course at the isthmus wo-lid rr.ake our people wild. R;.:i ?evelt will have taken such a pro ainent part in getting the project under way that he will be h iikd as the scapegoat upon which to hang ail blame. And tho chances are that he will have to stand for a lot of censure as he will not be in a positon to help huviself. When 'he retires f ro"i the presidency it seems it woidd be wise to place him in charge of allairs at Panama. Afi-.-r onough failures and disappear--.meats (his may ultimate ly L.o iloiuv Roosevelt's "stren uotisity" ii needed at the isth mus. PLODDING. The r.ian who plods is the man who succeeds. The man who follows a boaten path is the man who ultimately roaches his des tination safely and on time. The plodin man may follow the plow, h may run a clothing store, a buther shop, a bank; he may bo a doctor, a lawyer, a pri:!- ir or a carponter, or he may delve in sciences or mathe- mii;oes; but if he plods he sue ceeas. There are exceptions of CD"""? to all rules, and occasion-! ally a plodder fails, but oftener than not he achieves the object for which he struggles and his efforts are fruitful of results. The man who goes from job to joo, who d;ps in here and drops down there; who tries this and dabbles in that, is usually the an who calls the world a failure and rails at a fate that 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 qu3t 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 animal is driven by its master to its daily task, but cheerfully, alertly, eyes )jen for business, for opportun ities! for advancement and self unprovement, yet ever pbdding, plodding, with no swerving to rrht 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 cf doubt and indecision. Shippers' Convention. Preparations lor the second C3 M''iti-jn of Oregon Snippers and Producers -are being carried forth with much interest by tbe Albany Commercial club, and it seems certain that the meeting will be successful, since all other commercial bodies in the state ire taking an active part in the matter. The date has been set for January ioth, sessions to be held both in tbe afternoon and evening. The Telegram says: It is now planned to open the convention with an address by sume resident of Eugene, dealing with the woik instituted at the recent Willamette Valley conven tion there. This address w ll be made tithe: by Senator I. H. Binghcrn or Senator R. A. Booth. An acceptance of the invita tion to make oae of tne principal addresses ot the convention has "been received from J. N. Tea!, of Portland, and Governor Cham berldtiand Judge Stephen A. Lowell, of Pendleton, are also ex oect;d to be present. Other pro bible speakers are J. O. Story, of the St"ry-Breecher Lumber Company of Portland; B. F. Jones of Independence, represen tative from Polk county and W. M. Killingsworth of Portland. All phases of the evils which cor front 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 on Valley traffic. The Oregon delegation ia Congress will probably be memorialized to work toward that end. "Holy Howlers" tfee Latest. In Portland a frenzied mob calling themselves members of the "Pentecost Faith" but called by the public "Holy Howlers," is carrying on at a rate that puts the original Holy Roller orgies in the shade. Whites and bla :ks, men, women and children roll about together on the floor receiv ing what they call their "Pente cost," and a nine year-old girl has been hypustized into the in sane belief that she is to be "the bride of the Lord". A camp laint has been filed and the child is to appear in tbe 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 hnmility or dev- outness. It is nothing but noise. noise, noise, coupled with the uust sicke i iOjj tucantHti.ius, dis gusting grovriin in the dirt, immoral conduct as between the sexes, tt say nothing of the revol ting mmner in which the col r line is abraded." All this in 'he nam; o' relig ion! and the meetings have so for been un molested y- tie poc?1. The Telegram says of them: "It is only too evident that their meetings are rapidly drgeaerat mg into spasms of ar-imal frenzv, in which all approach to religions rites is dissipated, and the who e performance descends into wild and dissolute revelry. The elect become a passion-drunken mob, uncontrolled, tinted and unrest rained. The revival of Holy Rollerism does not seem far distant." Real Estate Transfers.
