After 3 years at SENATOR CHAMBERLAIN IN OREGON. From the Telctrram: "Orco-nn is ccttinir a tremendous ;amount of attention in the East today, not only from those who study her .commercial, industrial and financial possibilities, but also from those who study progressive political work," said .Senator George E. Chamberlain this morning, upon his return home fol lowing the congressional work at the national ranital. "I am glad to get home," continued the senator. "1 have been proud of Oregon for years and never felt better ihan upon considering the fame which our state is now attaining in every thing that speaks for greatness and future success. Instead of the state bring looked upon as the fool of the family, it is looked upon as the most progressive state in the Union. "As I returned home I read of the scandals that have developed in Pitts burg and the demands being made by the people for the initiative and refer endum, the recall, and what they call The Oreizon System.' The Illinois graft jesses prompt many there to de mand 'The Oregon System.' As I came ithroiigh Nebraska, I picked up a paper and found one ot tnc cauuiuaies . declaring for what we have in Oregon, offering this to the people as a special cause for support. We are known, are attracting intelligent thought, ami we will profit by it." ' Senator Chamberlain believes the state fared well in congress this ses sion, especially in the matter of river and harbor improvements. In public buildings and everything else in this line, he finds things entirely satisfac tory. Thedelcgation worked hard, he says, often under adverse circum stances, and the results achieved are held up lor mil comparison wuu wnai has been done at other times, when t there was perhaps more propitious en vironment. In the matter of working for greater recognition in the Federal reclamation work, Senator Chamberlain particular ly advises the state to urge comple tion of the two existing approvca pro jects on the plans furnished by the service. SHOULD CONGRESSMAN HAW LEY BE RE-ELECTED? The spirit of independence is pre vailing in the land, and there is some what of an insurrection among voters. Congressman Hawlcy, who stood pat with the regulars on about everything that came up, will find a strong in surgent vote in Oregon that will be against him. Not only that but he has also to face the fact that he is an as sembly candidate in a state that has '',"a different system provided for-the nomination of a candidate. Among the things charged against Congressman 11 aw ley is that he voted lor the ship subsidy bill, the rankest thing ever before congress. That he voted to impose a dollar per thousand tariff on lumber at the dictation of the lumber barons and against the interest of the users, j That he voted sustaining Cannon in every contest. That he voted in the interest of the sugar trust, and consumers are now paying one or two cents more than they should. That he helped raise the cotton schedule, increasing the price of cot ton goods at least 25 per rent. That he did nothing to stop the wool sched ule going up. That he did nothing to help cause a physical valuation of railroads, etc. All over the United States people arc inquiring into these things, making an issue that is causing more interest than anything for years. Mr. Hawlcy has taken sides with the stand-palters, or what is now known as regulars, and it is up to the people of Oregon to say whether he shall be returned to Wash ington, or shall even be given the nomination in the direct primary. WANT A NAME. Journal: Why should there be hes itation by the slate legislative candi dates as to what designation to put after their names on the primary bal lot? Do any of them object to the words "assembly candidate?" If so, arc they ashamed of the assembly so soon? Have they so quickly wearied of that gilded air casllc of which they but yesterday had such beautiful vis ions? If the word "assembly" is to be re jected, the logical thing to do is to go on the ballot as "rump candidates." Or, if something inure euphonic is de sired, let it be "hump candidates." Per haps a prophetic designation might he "dumped candidates." Of course, there ought to he some mark or sign in commemoration of the three secret conferences of corporation managers at which the slate was fixed up. Per haps the coat of arms of the railway, light and power company, suitably engraved, would be a vote catcher. MRS. LONGWORTH S CIGAR ETTE SMOKING. A Christian Endeavor Society of l-'airybury, Neb., has ordered its sec retary, to ask Airs. Alice Uoosevell l.ong'worth lo refrain from the use of cigarettes in the intcret of better mor als, and because of the bad inlluenoc of her example in so doing. 'I bis may cause some jokes, but it is really a serious matter when a woman of the prominence of the daughter of an E 1 'resilient indulges in a habit so bad in its effect as this one. one that men should be above indulging in. Mr. Roosevelt is suposed to stand for a high standard of morals, but there i evidently something loose when his daughter becomes addicted to the enf-iin-nail habit. The effect it has on her personally is not so important as the effect her example may have on the vountj people of the country. SATURDAY NIGHT' THOUGHTS. The people have been interested this week in some charges made by Sena tor Gore, of Oklahoma, that he was offered a $50,000 bribe in connection with a big Indian reservation graft, involving the vice-president of the United States. Senator Gore lhas be come quite prominent as a brilliant orator, with a presidential ambition, and the charge is bound to be .consid ered. It is of course denied, and will therefore affect both Senator Gore and Vice-President Sherman, with, followers of each. Joe Gans, a famous negro pugilist, the best in his class, has been at, death's door this week, the victim of, consumption, the great knocker out regardless of pugiHsticrecord. It has been announced this week by the immigration agent of the Great Northern that the Willamette Valley is to see an immense change in pop ulation as the result of a campaign by the Hill roads. A demonstration train is to be sent east and literature galore will be distributed boosting this valley as well as eastern Oregon. Come on, we are ready. A tragedy at the Siletz this week spoke for a double ' crime, bootleg ging as a starter murder as an end, liquor as a bullet. They often go to gether. The liquor is an instigator of most of the lawlessness of the world and hence the business in it should be outlawed. A live Oregon campaign is on, in which some new things are taking part, creating an uncertainty about things that is striking. Voters are getting as independent as a hog in a corn field and therefore the prospects of almost any old thing. The mind reading business interests one; but of course it is simply a clever trick. No one can read the mind. Some by taking hold of the hand or body may get an impulse mat rcveais things, but actual mind reading is a fake. The trick is said to be simple enough when revealed. It is easy to be credulous. One's thoughts make one. They are the great character indicator. Good thoughts always mean a good char acter. The things to think about are those that are true, honest, just, pure, lovely and of good report. Try it and don't accuse the Democrat of plagiarism from the Bible because suggesting u.
