THURSDAY, D B C B M B R R IS. The Hillsboro Independent g ot oat a holiday edition last week that was a credit to the pub lisher and one which the people o f Hillsboro may well feel prond 'o f . In view o f the fact that there is much talk o f the legislature passing a bill to create a rail road commission, all candidates for appointment will please arise and remain s t a n d i n g until counted. The latest report o f Dr. Cal- breath, the superintendent o f the asylum for the insane shows the number of the inmates to be 1429, which makes a heavy per cent when our limited popula tion is considered. The tone of the Canby Tribune ol last week was rather gloom y. Among other assertions made on the editorial page was this: “ M any a man has gone to the gallow s or the penitentiary on account o f the lies his personal enemies have sworn against him.” Cheer up old boy. Here is hoping that it will not be so bad as that. If the male members o f the various churches would put forth half the effort made by the ladies to meet the financial needs o f the churches, the treas ury would always be full enough to meet all the necessary de mands made upon it. The writer always feels like doffing his hat when he passes a little company o f church women who are engaged in an effort to make a little money for some special need o f a church that has not been met, and he must confess that the* ‘carnal nature’ ’ prompts a desire to shy a brickbat at any man w ho makes a disparaging remark, directed against the earnest efforts o f such a coterie o f women folk. The little tow n of Milwaukie and the community surrounding it has a record for desperate sui cides and bloody murders that is probably unequaled by any other locality in Oregon, popu lation considered, and the noto rious “ Milwaukie Club House” which is known all over as the gamblers’ resort, is a blot on the reputation of the tow n that ought to make the citizens, w ho permit it to r e m a i n , blush tor shame. It appears however that the people are well satisfied with present conditions. At least William Shindler was again elected m ayor last week by a vote o f seventy-three to forty- tw o, and he is the man w ho has stood for the club house from first to last. Any tow n that bids for such a dive is in a poor position to ask for anything better. Occasionally the editor o f the Oregonian does not quite agree with the Roosevelt policy, but if a criticism is to be written he anoints his head with oil before the task is begun, lest offense be given. It was not so during the McKinley administration. S cott’s dislike for McKinley was so intense that he dipped his pen in vitriol when a scathing criti cism o f his policy was to be written, and be even pursued him long after he was in grave. This well known dency o f the editor o f the Ore gonian to pursue dead men is a reminder o f a dog story. The owner of a dog with a bad repu tation took the cur out and killed him. A neighbor in pass ing iom c time afterward found the man with a club in hand J Not long ago there died in a W alla W alla cell a poor, ragged, bloated, uukept wretch without a friend in the w orld to shed a tear of sym pathy. No one cared for him and no one mourned him. “ Unwept, unhonored and un sung” his bones were rattled over the stones to the potters’ field. Fifteen years ago this man, bright-eyed, erect, clean limbed and yigorous stepped aboard his train at Pendleton. He wore the handsome uniform of a railroad conductor, a place to which he had steadily as cended from the bottom round o f the ladder. He greeted his friends w ith a smile and his friends were everywhere. Off duty he indulged in a social glass now and then with boon companions. He w as popular, deboniar and liberal. He had a kind heart and w as landed as one o f the m ost affable con ductors on the road. His revels increased in frequency for Pendle ton was then and is now a so cial place, and he liked to make merry w ith them in a drinking bout. His salary proved inade quate for this pleasant pastime and now and then some com pany money went over the bar easy “ pickup” and nobody to reckon w ith except a possible “ spotter,” despised by him and his kind as the dirt beneath their feet. But the inevitable happened. He lost his jo b . He took inferior positions, descending the ladder much more rapidly than he had arisen. His appetite tor drink was now a giant, powerful, per sistant, insatiable. Vice claimed him at last as all its ow n, body and soul, and he filled a drunk ard’s grave. This man w as a “ g ood fellow ” and “ one o f the boys.” He be came a “ poor fellow ” and “ one o f the trams.” W as the game w orth the candle? W as his wretched life w orth a few years of fleeting pleasure?— Western Leader. ______ _____ Quits Steamboatmg. ----------- * ■ Captain A. J. Spong, for the last sixteen years in the service o f the Oregon City Trtnsporta- tion com pany, was in the city Friday afternoon, visiting with friends preparatory to his de parture for Carson, W ashington.
