Political Gossip.
mTTT! nnl Iricnl oilifnp nf Tlin Orrtronian savs St'imtor
1 McXary will support Senator Ktanfickl for rcnorn
ination and re-election. TJio political editor of the Port
land Journal snys the opposite is true. The two metro
politan sages were not trying to contradict each other
in their statements. Both prognostications were pub
lished simultaneously, lfeally, it is confusing to those
of us who sit up-state. And up-state folks fairly palpi
tate with anxiety for truth about it all. A few words
on the subject from Senator McXary, who is now in Ore
gon, would be interesting.
Mrs. W. S. Kinney, of Astoria, who was a co-worker
of Senator George Joseph in the Oregon legislature, is
quoted ns saying Mr. Joseph will run for senator. Others
of Mr. Joseph's friends are merely saying they think he
will run. Mr. Joseph would put ginger a-plenty into the
campaign, but one t recoils from the possibility of Ore
gon's being represented in the United States senate by
one of his shall wo say unconventional? mode of
thought and political practice. One Portland political
writer credits Mr. Joseph with .having tho well wishes
of Governor Pierce in his reported ambition to become
senator. My goodness 1 What will Milt Miller say T And
if tho governor is to back Mr. Joseph, does that inten
tion also carry with it tho prospective support for Mr.
Joseph or State Senators Bonis, Kddy, Fisk and Garland,
who were all in the samo legislative ball team? It opens
an interesting vista.'
R. E. Butler, of The Dalles, is said to be ready, if he
can senso tho urge, to try for senator. Frank M. "War
ren, of Portland, is mentioned. So are A. E. Clark and
Charles II. Carey, of tho samo city, and J. J. Crossley, of
Eastern Oregon. Tho name of Judge Lawrence T. Har
ris, of Eugene, is not to bo included in the class of these.
If ho phould run ho would bo likely to be in a class by
himself. No, that is not a provincial viewpoint. The
samo thing is being said in tho cow counties and in Port
land. Tho primary is moro than ten months away and the
campaign naturally is at least six or Beven months off.
And what people say now is largely speculative. In fact
nearly all of what has boon written hero is gossip. But
hero is a concreto fact: Senator Staufield has declared
his candidacy for re-election and has started his cam
paign. Ho who starts early runs strong, an old saying
goes.
Robert Mi LnFolletto's claim to a place in tho ap
preciative rememberanco of the country will bo based
most largely upon tho earlier strivings and achievo
' mcnts of his public career. Ho stood firmly, in those
early days, against tho marked evils of tho political
system of tho. times, and was instrumental in bringing
about important reforms in that system, particularly
in his home stato. As representative in congress, gov
ernor of 'Wisconsin and in his earlier sorvieo in tho
scnato of tho United States ho performed in a way
to draw to him a nation-wide following of progressively
inclined people. In his later years his progressivisiii
degenerated to radicalism. Ilia pro-German utterances
and efforts during tho war, and his appeal later to
every organized forco of discontent in an effort to en
hanco his own political fortunes, alienated from him
much of his earlier following. "I nm at pence with all
the world," said LaFoIletto just before ho died. Un
doubtedly the world will bo glad to consider itself at
peace with him, and to honor his memory for those
things lie did that were good.
In Canada there is an effort under way to merge
the Methodist Episcopal, Congregational and Presby
terian churches. Tho united church is in operation but
a good many members of ench of tho denominations in
i volved doclino to conform to the merger. Need is not
i so much for denominational mergers among churches as
for mutual tolerance of ono for tho others. Peoplo enn
' not bo taught to change their honest beliefs at tho be
hest of religious lenders, but toloranco can bo largely in
culcated and spread by thoso leaders.
Tho last of tho old regime department heads in the
state fisheries service, Hugh Mitchell, superintendent of
hatcheries, has been duly discharged in furtherance of
tho Governor Pierco programme But tho governor and
his commissioners departed from their usual prnctico in
choosing It. E. Clanton as Mr. Mitchell's successor. Mr.
Clanton knows a good deal about fish. This must havo
been an error.
Tho first look at a picture layout in a Portland news
paper illustrating Oakridge's Fourth of July plans, gives
ono tho impression that tho celebration committee has
engnged tho Cowboy Poet, but iv reading of thiv caption
discloses that it is our own Mayor Parks, all dolled up

Gunless Gold Rush
(Mrdford Mail-Tribune)
Disarmament has got n round to
gold-prospecting. There is n. gold
stampede to tho Casainr diRtrict, in
northern Hritish Columbia, but it is
fur different from the historic rushes
to California and the Klondike. I'm
tols are forbidden. There is a police
commissioner there who relentlessly
collects and stores away nil side-arms,
Allowing tho prospectors to keep only
thoir rifles, to shoot game.
So, little by little, civilization en
croaches upon the open spaces and
(he wilds grow tnme. It is a whole

such a quesiiunuble word may be used
without reproach in (his fundamental

could only be persunded to look for its
gold up in Kri(ih Columbia, one 'of
tho leading American problems would

"Are surface war fleets obsolete?"
I asked.
"As the dodo, said Martin positively.

"Do you mean economical," I quer

Mtulin. "Where railroads actually

"Jiut gradually they'll wear out

"Perhaps" thoughtfully "we

of some oil interests in Turkey which
are planning to buy planes to carry

"Itut long hauls overseas?' I aslr-
ed. "Can planes compete with ships)
in handling cargo which can take its

"It isn't so much a question of tho

Iainty blonsoms sprinkle the carpet

east and middle west, as they motor
along, see them and are amarcd. Such
posies were never plucked from the
best kept gardens there.
And here in Hood ltiver on vacant
lots, where seeds from garden plants,
formerly cultivated, have germinated,
flowers growing wild gave a riot of
color. Tho bachelor button, op corn

Joseph woro on his marvelous coat,

they lift their gay faces amidst the
weeds of unkept property. Hut did
you ever stop to ndmiro a big bouquet
of them picked by n group of happy
kiddies? Your scorn will turn to admiration.
"I'm not so doubtful whether

am whether ships can compete with

Mnrtin's captaincy is of the sea. A

"Hut planes," I argued, "must have
a base to operate from."
"So," rejoined the captain, "mint
battleships. They're as helpless as any
craft afloat take a mile aud a half
to stop, 10 minutes to get up full
speed, aren't very fast at best, steer
reluctantly and have to have 10 times

to safeguard and keep them sup

' "They can't go deep enough to hide
except in dirty wnter. Anywhere it's
clear, an aviator can spot them and
then they're lest.
"In short, a , plane has no handicap
that a surface ship or submarine
hasn't got, and it's minus many that
they have."
"The truth is," Martin concluded,
"there's no defense against planes
not even other plnnes, if the nttnekers
strike at night. The whole strategy In
future wars will be to land the fir.it

"It's a cruel thing to say, but it

it will be beyond his power to Tetn

have written recently. There are
many who live by song and laughter
and I believe you will find more wan
dering uiinatrtila here than iu other
cttieB.
There is, for instance, Tony who
turns his wagon into my street aev
eral mornings each week. As be leads
bis borbe around the corner be be
gins to sing "Yea, We Have No Uaa
auus" in great giee, for be has a wa
gon full of bananas. "Now, ladies, all
stick your heads out the window. I'm
goine to Bine." And aing be does,
little Italian folk songs and snatches
of opera, cutting high capers in ec
static dance. And then he sells bis
bananas, 13 for a quarter, and careB
little whether be makes a Bale, for at
heart be is a song and dance man.
And every Friday morning there Is
the old organ grinder with bis little
music box. Its reeds are broken and
it wheezes and Bqueuls as he turns
the crank, but one can distinguish
among the sour notes "In the Good
Old Summer Time" and other popular
hits of a decade ago.
At twilight occasionally there
comes a young Irishman with the
most powerful voice I ever heard. He
tilts bis head to one aide and cups
one ear with his bund as though his
voice were too strong for his own
ears. He singa "Sweet Rosie O'
Grady," "Bedelia" and "Sidewalks of
New York" and pennies and dimes are
tossed from windows.
On holiday mornings such as Christ
mas and Thanksgiving and Easter
there comes nn old man and his wife
who sing carols end old favorites such
as "Silver Threads Among tho Gold."
Their voices crack and they are fre
quently off key, yet they command
attention such ns no opera singer
ever received, for they tnke grown
men and women back to their mo-1
there' knees. j
And so, despite the rumble and the
roar and the fretting, we have our
little moments of happiness. .
"One-Eye" Connolly and Tammany
Young are koen rivals for the title of
world s champion gate crasher. Tam
many Young has been more success
ful in getting into theaters and the
more polite gatherings, but "One-Eye"
has achieved a national reputation by
seeing every prize fight in the past
20 years without paying admission.
The other day he tried to pass Bill
Connors, the doorman of a Broadway
theatPr where a prize-fight comedy
is playing. Connors described the
fight scene so realistically that "One
Eye" bought n, ticket for a gallery
seat. After the show started he was
seen sitting in the orchestra.
Competition is keen even among the
bootblacks. Heretofore the old fel
lows and the kids have had quite a
battle in Bryant Tark and Madison
Sqtinre because the boys would shine
shoes for a nickel while the old shin
ers asked a dime. A truce has been
effected whereby the boys have exclu
sive rights to Bryant Park and the
old' men exclusive privileges in Madi
son Square.
