Mr. Powderly is always practical. His recommendations to the general assembly are as practical as Mr. Elaine himself could make. He advised the knights to abstain from miscellaneous political agita tion and to concentrate their efforts upon at most two great measwress both of which shall have to do directly with the general interest of labor. There is no doubt that the concerted demand of 500,000 voters for any constitu tional and prudent legislation would meet with response from one or both of the great parties. . Of the two measures pro posed by the Grand Master Workman one is but an enlargement of a measure already passed at the demand of united labor; the other is opposed by many on the ground of doubtful constitutionality, and by more on the ground of its ten dency towards centralization of political power. The first is that which nrges the elevation of the Bureau of Labor to the dignity of a department of state. Mr. Powderly thinks that there is at least as much need of a department of labor as of a department of war, and he argues very plausibly in support of his proposition. The second demand is that the govern ment should take control of the telegraph system of the country. But if ot the tele graph system, why not of the railway system, why not of all carrying systems, why not of all manufacturing enterprises? A great and very liberal statesman once said that it was the business of govern ment to make laws and the business of the people to make bargains, and there is a great deal of wisdom iu the saving. The drift of public opinion is towards dis possessing government of much of the patronage which it now enjoys, rather than toward placing a million or so of new appointments under its control. But there is need of aholesorae legisla tion restricting the encroachments monopolies upon the rights of the masses. The government has the right to regulate corporations and monopolies, and to fix the maximum rates to be charged the people. This is as far as the interference of a democratic government should ex tend into the affairs of individuals or cor porations. REFRESHING. The editor of the Oregonian explains that bis position is not one of ease, leis ure, amusement and "dilitanteeism." It is very kind of the editor to explain thus to the public. The people of Ore gon were laboring under the painful hal lacinatt on that the position of the editor ot iuo uregonian was a aiiettant one a l. ... and that be was a disciple of dilettante ism (which is not a fish), and they are more than gratified to be assured that this was an egregious mistake. There nothing so refreshing as we go whirling along in the lightning express of time as to have the moulders of opinion and the evolvers of thought to occasionally be come confidential with the great, sym pathetic public. It serves to engender and perpetuate kindly feelings of fellow snip, iieiore the editor of this great family newspaper, the Statesman, would allow the impression to gain currency that be is a subject of "dilitanteeism," he would go to all the people of the state personally and explain to them that it was a fake alarm, and only conceived in the fertile brain of some follower of that heresy of temperance, prohibition, in his "crapulent" ravings, or he would publish a t-ard to the same effect in the "Ne Northwest," so that all the people could see that it was a base falsehood. THE GAMBLING ORDINANCE. The new gambling ordinance of Mayor Ramsey, passed by the Salem city coun cil, is similar to the state law upon the fame subject, the difference being that the Salem ordinance is mow specific and its language plainer and more easily un derstood, ho sensible person will deny me evil of gambling, especially upon the young. No one can persistently gamble and remain honest. It has a degrading and demoralizing influence only, and there Is no argument in favor of the so- called "profession" of gamblers. They are non-producers, bloodsuckers and vam pires, giving no return for the money they worse than ateal, and lending not one sol itary vestige of moralizing or upbuildimr influence to the community. They im poverish financially and morally. Thev should therefore be suppressed and their thieving business broken up. If this law is enforced it will have this effect. Let those who wish to play carda go to their homes and indulge their inclinations. and getontof sight of the yoong men and boys. Salem has no use whatever for gamblers. It is no encroachment upon personal liberty to forbid a part of the commnniiy to rob another part. The States wishes to mt itself on record in favor of the enforcement d th dog law. Let the dogs keep their places in society, or abbreviate their tails just behind the ears. A man may be able to paint a town red from end to end, and yet possess none of the cardinal virtues. This is respectfully referred to the Portland Daily news. i AMETsav that aUaien fail in rw ra . .t. - i. i. .- we UKUCaUOOS biers. "TV HI fOC JUST OK MAUTOr-ESCX. A Methodist minister in a southern city on a recent Sunday preached a sermon in bitter denunciation of the stage and its people. At the close of hit remarks aa opera singer rose from her place in the congregation and indignantly denied the troth or justice of the ministerial judg ment. Naturally there was a good deal of excitement, especially as the church seemed to be pretty equally divided in its support of pastor and singer. The ser mon was not an unusual incident. A cer tain class of clergymen, well disposed, perhaps, but painfully narrow in their unreasoning prejudices, have an over zealous fondness for preaching invectives against the stage, the one subject of which these self-sufficient censors know least, and which they generally are most in capable of discussing temperately. The public is accustomed to this no longer heeded species of pulpiteering unheeded for the simple and sufficient reason that the people addressed are vastly better in formed respecting the theater than is the expounder of really harmless vagaries who offers to instruct them. It is not often, however, that the dilap idated scare-crow startles into audible protest one of the children of Belial it is intended to terrify, and it is not often a shrewd, clever-witted woman has the op portunity to convert an assault upon her profession into such an admirable adver tisement for herself. It was this im promptu and very excellent speech of the singer that gave unusual notoriety and importance to the utterance of a pastor attempting to discipline his refractory flock. The episode will, however, serve as sn excuse for reviewing a tedious and senseless, because misdirected, contro versy. It may be admitted that it is the privilege of the clergy to wage an old war against a modern institution, employ ing arguments that are no longer applica ble, citing conditions long ago eliminated from the problem. Certain minds are so organized that they can never outgrow an early conceived prejudice, and are not constituted to balance wisely the two elements of a pioposition. Oliver Wen dell Holmes described for us a kind of men who think they think, but who really do no more than ruminate a commonplace as a cow chews her cud. These men mis take hay for new grass, and revolve dryly but contentedly that from which the sun shine of luminous, candid thought long before absorbed the juice. However sincere snd earnest the opera singer in her impulsive rejoinder to cler ical strictures upon her profession, her re marks were based upon a false premise, the SHRicnption that the stage needs champions. The great majority of edu cated, thinking people in this day deem it no mors necessary to defend the stage as a phenomenon of society and a factor of civilization than to defend the press or the church itself. They discern evils in all departments of life, and are aware that the stage, which cannot be better than the society it represents, has its weaknesses and vices, its deplorable ex cesses snd repreheneible shortcomings in common with other institutions inspired and controlled by erring humanity. They also pfveive that the stage has many virtues, nuble qualities, high purposes, furthered by men and women of pure, blameU3 lives; and the candid, judi cious examiner of existing conditions, ad mits without hesitancy that the good ef fects greatly more than counterbalance evil influences for the reason that whn we sfwak of the stage we do not have in mind th degraded and degrading dens and resorts that have no closer relation to the theater proper than African orgies to the Christian religion. vice has no limitations. The stage has sot immunity from it; nor has any other staie of society. But it is the de duction of Ignorance that the stage offers freer fedUttes for the growth and devel opment otvice than many of the less con spicuous conditions of life and livelihood into which weak natures may be cast. It were as wise to demand the total suppres sion of the press because the news col umns reflect the iniquities of society, or to clamor for the destruction of our great commercial houses because some of their employes are immoral, or to insist on clos ing the churches because there are erring pastors and unchaste members, as to in terdict the theater because all players are not saints and all plays are not missionary The editor of the Drain, Douglas county, fcebo" claims that he does not own a drugstore, and no one in connection with the Echo owns a drug store, or any interest in a drug store. But a gentleman of Douglas county tells us that there is a drug store somewhere in the Echo family. u toe editor of the Echo don't own it. then the Statesman was mistaken when it made the statement that be does. .a - a vs the 8. F. Alta : One third of the state of Oregon has never been surveyed. It will be 'well in the next national plat forms' toconple with that resolution about reserving the public domain for the hon est settler another promising to survey ' ,lf .e. bo4 settler, so that be can find his home. The impression is pretty general among me common, erery-day people of Oregon . . ..... ... UU IU Ul-M (II Ul Mn a. UJ .: "-r.lUoJBnii reflect credit upon the intc - ince o! the people of ibia state. The theories' of socialism and of prohi bition are twin theories, both frauds in practice. The one theory seeks to' vest all ownership of all forms of property in the government to destroy individuality and ambition to put all people upon a dead level of equality to make the strong and ambitions support the weak and In dolent; the other theory of prohibition tends to place an manner of law, of power, of authority in the bands of the government to destroy individual action to discourage individual choice and tastes to create aa autocracy of tyran nical power of the state. Both theories are undemocratic. Both are unreason able. They are the products of diseased and biased brains. They do not stand the test of experience. Tbey presume upon an unnatural state of affairs. They deal only with the superficial and theoret ical, They stay up in the clouds, and never get down upon the level of prac tical humanity. Prohibition is no better than anarchy or socialism. It is no more practical, no more reasonable. Herr Most is as good a man as St. John. He is as honest, as practical. Both are mercenary bigots. That government governs beet which governs least, and it may be added which owns least. The Statesman is down upon monopolists of power, down on monopolists of all kinds. Such little podsnsps as the small calibred prohi preachers of Oregon, who furnish very good tails to the prohibition kite, are objects for the contempt and pity of such material as forms the great mass of practical, thinking men, able ministers, lawyers, judges, merchants and business men and farmers and me chanics. It will be indeed a sorry state of affairs when the great mass of reason able, practical, thinking men allow these imported and transient quidnuncs, these little hobby horse fellows, with minds fed on the dry husks of senseless, insipid theories, these smart Alecks of morality to dictate to them what tbey shall eat and drink and wear, to be the sumptuary censors of the state. What a pleasant thought ! But the time will never come in Ore gon. Mcltkomar county is not a good place for murderers and assassins. Justice is swift to follow the crime, and the law's delays are few and short. Wm. Dillon's victim has been dead but nineteen days, and the jury has found him guilty, after a fair and speedy trial, of murder in the second degree. In these days of perver sion of the law, it is pleasant to contem plate an example of speedy punishment for a dastardly deed. Portland News. That is a pretty good record, but if Justice bad gone one notch higher and provided for the graduation of Dillon as a first class corpse, it would have been a better job. The following is from a recent inter view with that brainy statesman, Chauncey M.Depew. lie surely means Blame. It is good enough to read : "The idea has been industriously circulated that we could never afford to elect too brainy a man president. It killed Web ster and many other good men since, but I think the American people would now like at least to try the experiment and see if the country would be ruined by electing our brainiest and most talented man to the presidency." In the increased taxation that the wholesale prosecutions under a prchibi tory law would pile onto the shoulders of property holders, how much of the bur uen wouia oe oorne oy the rrotestant po- J . lit-. htical prohi preachers, the principal leaders of the movement? It is presumed that some of them want Oregon to go "dry," to be in harmony with what by courtesy are called their sermons, The Statesman will not be too proud or stuck-up when it gets its brsn spankin' new printing press to still take in subscri bers at the old rates, and to keep always in the. business office, 264 Commercial street, a good penaman who writes beau tiful receipts for bick dues in a largs, round flowing hand.

A farmer has no more business being a prohibitionist than a Henry George so cialist. The Henry George socialist wants the men who own the land to pay all the taxes for the support of the "gov ernment, and the hardshell prohi, in the event that bis theories are adopted, will run the county in debt with malicious and, other worse than useless prosecu tions, until the land will not bring in enough to pay the taxes, which is about as bad.

Farm ers, do you want such a law?

You are also reminded that the three last states which have voted upon this fraud, prohibition, this beresy of temperance, Michigan. Texas and Tennessee, have emphatically re- pudiated the quack theory. It remains for Oregon to do her duty in denying the dictation of imported theorists and hired agitators. THE ALLEGED FAIR. The Portland papers have at different times demanded that the State fair be held in Portland, because that city has such splendid kotel accommodations, be cause the restaurant and hotel men of Salem raise their prices during fair time, etcetera. For these very same reasons, the Mechanics' fair should be held in Salem. The hotel and restaurant men of Salem are content to make a slight raise upon their prices, and some of them do not raise at all ; but tbey charge $1.50 for a 50 cent room in Portland, while the al leged Mechanics' fair is holding forth, and most every thing else is in propor tion. The Portland people are robbing the people of the Willamette valley and all others who attend their, show of ad vertising samples. It should be removed to Salem, closer to where the people who attend it live ; but come to think about it, Salem don't want it. The drummers who daily come here bidding for Salem trade, bring along to show as samples about all that can be seen at the alleged Mechanics' fair, and Salem would net want to impose upon visitors so. If she had such an institution as this she would call it the "annual advertising show," or "suckers' resort,"or the "great American chestnut exhibition," or something ap propriate. We will admit that Portland tried to build a big hotel awful hard, but the movement got stuck in the moss that grows so luxuriantly upon the back of her enterprise, as it were ; and we would sug gest that her newspapers say no more about Salem having no hotel accommo dations.

There should be a nice driveway be tween the penitentiary and asylum. People who drive out there now are com pelled to open three gates between these two institutions, or to diive a mile or more around. It was the idea of Governor Moody and the other state officials contemporary with him to make a handsome driveway between the penitentiary and asjlaa, and, looking to that end, maple trees were set out slong either side of its pro posed route. It would be a source of pleasure and pride to the citizens of R. I lem, and of great accommodation to visit ors snd employes of those institutions, to have the plan of the old state officers car- ried out. The cost would be slight, as object, with confidence that they will see to the matter soon. WvT x - . - .
