TrtURSDAY, FEBRUARY 21.
IP lOU MIST FIGHT DON'T HE
NOISY.
There will be a city election held
in Eugene soon. Already the advo
cates of divergent Ideas of municipal
government are lining up for the bat
tle and there promises to be a spir
ited contest for control of the city
' Council.' It Is eminently right and
proper that this should be so, Bince
an active Interest In municipal affairs
can only tend to greater efficiency of
government, the rivalry engendered
causing the bringing forward of the
best men in the community for office,
and to that extent at least enhanc
ing the general welfare.
That the principal issue before the
voters will be that of municipal own
. ership of public utilities goes without
saying, since It is really the only
" municipal question in which there is
general Interest and a diversity of
" opinion. This being so, there seems
: little necessity this year to thresh
the matter out In the newspapers,
as has been done heretofore. The
voters know their minds on this sub
" Ject, as It has been a standing Issue
''. for some years, and its discussion
: through the press pro and con will
'- have little effect upon the verdict to
: be rendered at the' polls election day.
No matter now nard the campaign
' is waged by either or both sides It
' Is altogether a bad policy to continue
- washing this dirty linen in public.
Eugene has had so much detrimental
' advertising through the press because
of the controversy over its water sup
. ply and the local option question that
i the past year, which should have
been one of advancement and pro
f gress, has practically been a blank
-'' so far as any substantial iniprove
'" ment is concerned. Business has
been good because "of large crops,
fair prices and activity In the lumber
' ing Industry, but there has been no
building to speak of in Eugene, and
a lack of harmony and concerted ac
tion is bearing fruit that is a cause
of anxiety to the well-wishers of the
city.
The present year, however, opens
brightly with the promise of elec
tric road building, university enlarge-"-
ment, federal building, and other
Improvements, and there should be a
1 united effort to make a decided gain
', In population and business before
! January 1, 1908. It seems an in-
stance of opportunity knocking at
the door and the portals should be
' swung wide in answer to the sum
toons. So let us bear in mind during the
' Seit few weeks that Eugene's Inter
if est is the personal Interest of every
'-' one of us, and in doing so work for
.' a clean, honest campaign, no matter
'. how strong and earnest our convic-'-
tions may be upon the Issues lnvolv-
e.
Let,' make It a great year foe Eu
gene a red-letter chapter in the
history of Oregon's onward march!
One of America's greatNit naval he
" roes was responsible for this toast:
"My country, -fcjiy she always be
' right, but right or wrong my couii-
' try!"
O Tnat expresses the acme of patriot- j
ism suppose we paraphase the nigjj'
' Utlon and give it local applUitlon 1
just aa an experiment tor this year
if nothing more.
Those who art interested in the
president's recomm'9.dations as to
rifle shooting In the public schools
should note that the Preparatory
Schools' Rifle Association of Orent
Britain encourages rifle practice In
preparatory schools by practice with
both miniature and air rifles. Lord
Roberts, the distinguished soldier, is
president of the association. Com
petitions are held three times year
ly, at 25, 50 and 100 yards. Three
challenge shields, of St. George, St.
Patrick and St. Andrew, are provid
ed, one for each competition. They
are modelled In Sterling silver. In
this ennection Mr. Birrell.presldent
of the board of education, has an
nounced in the house of commons
that the educational authorities had
been given permission, under cer
tain restrictions, to allow children
of certain ages to be taught shooting
at miniature ranges, the instruction
to be paid for out of the public
funds.
There Is nothing new in the sug
gestion of Senator Morgan, that the
Democrats dispense with a leader in
the senate and allow each Democratic
senator to carry on "a sort of politi
cal guerilla warfare" as" he pleases,
migh xzfiflffffi cmfwyp shrdlu vbgk
It has been done before, but is
mighty poor politics. Victories are
not won without leaders.
It grows more and more difficult
for the layman to know "where he is
at." Congress says the Panama ca
nal zone Is foreign territory for I m
migration purposes, and a New York
court has decided that all territory
owned by the United States Is a
part of the United States.
No wonder the venerable Senator
Pettus went to sleep during the tak
ing of testimony In the Brownsville
investigation by the senate military
committee. Judging from what has
been published it is astonishing that
any member of the committee has
been able to keep awake.
Considering the size of the town
and the bank, Treasurer Walker, of
the New Britain, Conn., savings bank,
who walked off with $565,000, and
was still walking when last seen,
appears to have made the most of
his opportunities.
A Cuban general called at the
White House the other day and Cap
tain Ilobson was not on hand to as
certain if he had an ultimatum con
cealed about his person. Such care
lessness should not be tolerated.
Nobody has yet suggested that the
canal experts of Mars be called upon
to help us with the Panama job,
though many suggestions equally as
useful have been made.
If the spirit of the lamented Lin
coln be cognizant of current stories,
he must be surprised to learn of
many things he is now said to have
done while living.
Dun Kelly Valuable.
(Baker City Herald.)
It Is estimated by Representative
Farrell, of Multnmah, that Dan Kel
ly is worth $125,000 to the state,
This is the view of Multnmah coun-
tv. which wishes to make the fast
sprinter Its protege and Baker coun
ty will have to get busy or it will
lose its honors in that connection.
Kelly holds the world's record and
Baker county should not overlook
the value that young man is to this
community. He is the best adver
tisement we have had for many
moons. Dan is good natured and
does not mind in the least being
made an advertisement, for his home
town and county, and it is up to Ba
ker to get busy and use him.
Portland has a habit of claiming
every famous athlete turned out In
the state. The Multnomah Club does
not hesitate for a minute to capture
every fast man that comes its way.
Dan Kelly Is a Baker high schooUath
lele and Is not ashamed of It. He Is
ready to stick with gaker, and it Is
up to this plie to stick with him.
Whoop It up!
