CAN MR. HARTOG BEAT T H IS ?
T he writer in m aking the usual
rounds of the town T hursday could
but note ou this springlike day the
m any evidences of our even, mild
and delightful climate as com
pared with th at of the east and
middle west just now. In many
dooryards were to be seen roses,
pansies, daisies, sweet williams,
and chrysanthem um s in full bloom
in the open air. At several places
we noticed nice l>eds of fresh green
lettuce, onions and radishes grow
ing in the gardens, while a few of
our citizens were found plauting
early garden and flower bulbs.
Hut the incident to most impress
us and which m akes all of the
fantastic posy, exultation and
felicitating of our esteemed con
temporary, “ Nobody’s M agazine,”
when exploiting Oregon weather
and superb| clim atic conditions,
sink into utter insignificance, was
a sight viewed from the river
bridge on Main street, the am us
ing spectacle of a num ber of
happy school lads bearfoot enjoy
ing themselves by wading and
splashing in the placid waters of
the I'pper W illam m ette river, and
this on the third day of December!
Here we could but picture in our
mind the extrem es of an ( ircgou
and eastern
w inter—here the
school boys barefooted, w ading
and splashing in the limpid
streams; there the school boys, fur-
clad, skating and sleighing ou the
streams and ponds. T hink this
over, ye sttow bound, blizzard
beaten, frost bitten inhabitant of
the far east and m iddle west, and
then resolve to come to Oregon.
T he O regonian, while a n ta g
onistic to the tenijierauce move
m ent in this state— at least from a
m onetary standpoint, once in a
while gives aw ay its true moral
sentim ent ou the question, a t least
when it comes close home to it as
it did last week when a prom inent
attorney while in a drunken frenzy
shot to death a brother attorney,
thus placing another blot on the
fair record of Portland, regarding
w hich the O regonian says editori
ally. “ Of course, there will be
the defense of irresponsibility—
probably
through
alcoholism.
Hut alcoholism is no excuse. It is
itself an offense. It is high tim e
juries should teach th a t men c a n ’t
use liquor for stim ulation to m u r
der, and escape th e penalty. O f
fensive a spectacle as the gallows
is this com m unity needs it still,
and so does m any a n o th e r."
C ongressm an W illiam Lorimer,
of Chicago, m em ber of the River
and H arbor Com mittee, is m aking
an extended visit to m any of the
im portant harbors of the Pacific
coast. He gave th e C olum bia

GATE sav it is American to be “ slick.” gome think that the
great object of tho American youth is to be smart and outwit
somebody. Some think that the object of business is to bo
clever in deception. Some think tho business of politi '9 is
manipulation and intrigue. What mistakes these nre!

People want men whom they can trust. We are nil together in tho

I hero may be many illustrations that will occur to you of cases
of successful sharpness, but they are so exceptional as to prove tho
rule. The old way, tho steady way, is tho right wav. Put a littlo
more in the measure than you need to. Give a good basketful of fruit,
and don't simply have a little display on top of superficial attention
and industry. Give a little more work than you are asked to give, and
it will show on tho ono hand that you are unpureliasablo nnd on the
other hand you esteem it nn honor to give more than is required at
your hands in every department of life’s effort. That is the history of
success in Am erica; that is a lesson to the bov»— FTTIX MEASURE,
