WKDNSSDAY, AUG. io, toto.
The death of Harvey V. Scott,
editor of the Portland OregonUn
for 40 yearn, marks tbe passing of
a truly resarkable nan. He died
last Sunday la Johns Hopkins hos
pital, Baltimore, of heart failure,
after a surgical operation. He
came from the soil, struggled up
through great difficulties to a posi
tion of preeminence and held unap
protchable swa there for a gener
ation He was a prodigious work
er always. His mind was strong,
leceptive, active, and it was his
habit to master a subject before
dealing with it in a public way
This gave him the leadership which
he so long held. He was not pop
ular In the ordinary sense, because
so few could approach his high
level and get into sympathy with
him, but of self-asscrtiveness, of
narrow pride or petty arrogance, no
man was ever more free. Oregon
may well say, as did Hamlet:
He mi a man, take him for alt In all,
We shall not look upon hit like again.
The high-minded, honest, sensi
tive Attorney-General of the grent
state of Oregon has taken his facile
pea in hand and complained to toe
District Attorney of Multnomah
county about the "Hillraan" town
site swindle. Whereupon the Port
land Oregonlan also discovers the
iniquity. How potent an impend
ing election is to rouse public func
ttouarieu to protect the public! The
bet that the Hillman swindlers
have gotten awav with the swan
and don't care much now what
happens renders this belated pro
test rather childish. The papers
notably the Portland Telegram and
the Bend Balletin have set this
matter forth in its true charade
repeatedly, so there is nothing new
in it at this time We are now
looking for the Attorney-General to
announce that there was a rotten
irrigation deal in Babylon.
The people dearly love to 1ms hum
bugged. Present to them some
thing of real mejlt, give them ac
curate information, and they resent
It. The human critter is n pux
sling animal.
Initiative petition enterprises
have received quije a shock here in
Bend very little enthusiasm for
them any more. The recent elec
trical disturbances attending the
signing of the road petition Is said
to account for the popular aversion.
"Dittna ye hear
Speaker Cannon?
the slogan,"
Tbe numerous and destructive
forest fires call attention afresh
to the necessity of greater care to
prevent such catastrophes. Inci
dentally the comparative exemp
tion of the yellow pine belt must be
noted. This timber in Eastern
Oregon seldom sutlers from wild
fires. It does not grow in such
masses as does fir and the absence
of underbrush deprives tbe flames
of much food. About tbe only'
forest fires in this region occur in
jackpine thickets or canyons where
thare may be a favoring draft of
air. Deschutes timber is as safe a
money in the bank.
CAPSIZE ON ODELL.
Bend Party Has Narrow Escape and
Lose Equipment.
A party of Bend men while on
an outing at Inku Odell were the
victims of a boat-capsizing accident
which cost them (our guns, pevcrnl
tishinc rods and a considerable
amount of valuable camping equip
ment.
On Saturday, July 30th, the
campers left uenit tor the lake,
comprising the following: A, C,
Lucus, jun Holmes, John Morgan,
Prof. Thorne, S. G. Dorrls, the
game warden, Captnin Parker, a
representative of the Remington
Arms Co. and Col Jenkins.
After a hunting trip to the west
end of Lake Odell the party was
returning to cimp, Messrs. Lucas,
Morgan, Thorne and Jenkins in u
sailboat, behind which was towed
a second boat containing Parker,
Holmes and Dorris, when suddenly
a squall of wind upset the leadiug
boat, dumping all its occupants
into the water. The boat capsized
in 50 feet of water, about 100 leet
from shore. The three in tbe trail
boat did good work in rescuing the
others. Everything beside the
sailors, however, went to the bot
tom of tbe lake excepting the
dog, which was first ashore.
It is said that an effort will be
made to recover the lost guns by
dragging.
