A SIGN OF THE TIMES.
The surest elgo of conscious im po
tency Id the face of Inevitable defeat is
a blind endeavor to make up for weak'
cess in defenseby swiftness and feroc
ity of attack. A pugilist in the face
of defeat, will cast aside all efforts for
defense and rain aimless blows at bis
opponent, hoping against reason that
perhaps one of them may strike home
and turn the scale in his favor. A
wild beast, crowded to its last corner,
will burl itself upon the hunters
regardless of a dozen mortal thrusts,
in a blind, unreasoning hope that it
may possibly break through and gain
safety, although Its efforts are mani
festly vain. The same sign holds
good In struggles of a different nature,
as, for example, an important political
contest, like that which even now is
holding the interest of the American
people.
It is a significant fact that while
the Republican press, in the main, has
endeavored to make lu arguments in
favor of the principle of lt party
and the man chosen to represent those
principals, clear and pertinent, and
while tbey have been to a truly
remarkable degree free from sophistry
and speciousness and the hollow
demagoguery that is so prone to creep
into arguments of a political nature,
the Democratic press has almost as
unfailingly, almost as universally,
followed exactly the opposite method.
This may be a sweeping assertion,
but It Is not beyond the possibility of
a fairly satisfactory proof.
Let anyone take the representative
newspapers of Oregon or of any state
In fact, for one week, divide them
along the lines of partisanship, read
carefully their editorial discussions of
the various phases of the political
situation, and strike a fair average of
their methods In dealing with the
subject
True, many Democratic papers
endeavor to mold their defense and
attack along the legitimate lines of
logical and consistent argument,
argument which is bound to have Its
weight with any tbiuklng man,
though his own convictions may be
exactly to the contrary. True, into
many of the editorial utterances of
Republican organs creeps the vanity
of sophistry and the empty appeals of
blank demagoguery, arguments that
can have no weight of conviction
whatsoever with the voter who regards
each subject carefully before either
sanctioning or condemning It, even
though bis whole sympathy may be
with the cause which those puxrs are
trying to support. Still, when the
average Is fairly struck, these things
demost plainly appear to the careful
reader, that while Republicanism is
making a fair, open, anil logical
fight, attending well to both attack
and defense, and refraining wonder
fully well from the use of those weaker
weapons above mentioned, ltsoponent
Is attacking boldly, venomously,
recklessly, almost utterly disregard
ing defense while It lays desperately
hold of anything and everything that
may perchance serve as a w?uxu
against lu opponent.
Every manner of sophistry Is em
ployed, some arguments being brought
forward seriously for consideration,
which ate so palpably a mere jug
gling of facts and phrases capable of
convincing no one except ho be half
wltted or wholly careless, that the
reader often sorrowfully lays down
his paper and wonders if after all, a
man must be devoid of a sense of pro
portion and a sense of humor to be a
successful writer of "forlorn hope"
editorial.
The fact cornea up that Mr. Taft, the
Republican candidate, is a Unitarian,
a fact that has been known well during
the past years In which Mr. Taft has
filled at different time a half dosen
office of trust and honor under the
people of the I'olted States, and a
fact which has, up to the present time,
raused apparently no uneasiness
whatever to that great people whom
be baa been serving so well and faith
fully. Now however, seeing in it a
bare possibility of scoring a point
against him, the Democratic press
siezes upon it and blazons it abroad
with every conceivable manner of dis
tortion and lurid drapery of words.
They howl, they roar, they shrink
back in holy horror and point at the
sell-confessed and unrepentent heretic,
comparing him (to bis vast discredit
In their estimation)-with bis saiatly
and severely orthodox antagonist.
Editors who have probably wasted not
a single thought on the hereafter for
years and hava never before puzzled
tbelr Louis with the inexplicable
mysteries of the Trinity, are suddenly
siezed with a fit of the religious gripes
that fairly overpowers and twists them
inside out. And really, when it Is all
boiled down, the subject over which
tbey have been Indulging in such a
series of hysterical spasms, has just
about as much to do with his executive
ability and fitness for the office of
president, and about as much to do
with the other subjects involved In the
political struggle, as tbe narns of the
great man s favorite book or the
address of the firm that does his
laundry work.
This however, is merely a single
example. Right on down tbe line it
Is the same. False premises, false
reasoning, specious arguments, vain
objections, empty Issues, a mere hurly
burly and jumble of words calculated
to benumb tbe ear and cloud the reason
of the army of "doubtful voters" from
which tbey are faintly hoping to be
able to gain enough recruits to fill out
tbeir ragged ranks and possibly, pos
sibly, (who knows?)slide into power by
some hook or crook in tbe coming
election.
A pugilist facing an almost sure
defeat, often casts defense to the winds.
rushes in blindly and showers blows
upon bis antagonist In a faint hope
that possibly one of them may Btrike
home and turn the tide in his favor.
This sign has almost invariably held
good in lesser combats, and surely
it holds good in struggles of a differ
ent nature political contests, for
instance, like the one that is even now
engaging our attention.

Several of the citizens of Yamhill
county, exasperated because Fruit
Inspector Lownsdale has ordered
diseased fruit trees in all parts of the
couuty destroyed and hasenforeed his
orders1, petitioned to tbe County Court
for his removal, but were refused.
which shows that the County Court ut
least, If no one else, recognizes and
appreciate the fact that Mr. Lowns
dale has done more for tbe upbuild
ing of the fruit industry In Yamhill
county In the last few years than a
hundred of tbe ones who are endeav
oring to overthrow him could have
accomplished.
Labor Day was celebrated in Dallas
In tbe most appropriate manner po
sible by labor In the mills and fac
tories, the stores and shops, and the
bop yards, when the heavy downpour
of rain would cease long enough to
make such a method of celebratiou
convenient.
