TWELVE COMMON MISTAKES.
A big man in London, recently gave
the twelve great mistakes of life,
which he said had made himself. They
are worth thinking about by every
reader of the Democrat, because many
of us make at least sonic of them
continually. Here they are:
To attempt to set up our own stand
ard of right and wrong and expect
everybody to conform to it.
To try to measure the enjoyment of
others by our own.
To expect uniformity -of opinion in
this world.
To look for judgment and exper
ience in youth.
To endeavor to mould all disposi
tions alike.
Not to yield in unimportant trifles.
To look for perfection in our own
actions.
To worry ourselves and others
about what cannot be remedied.
Not to alleviate, if we can, all that
needs alleviation.
Not to make allowances for the
weaknesses of others.
To consider anything impossible
that we cannot ourselves perform.
To believe only what our own eyes
can grasp.
A POOR ARGUMENT.
It is reported that Congressman
Hawley in his talks in Southern Ore
gon remarked that because of his be
ing a follower of Cannon he had been
able to secure desirable legislation in
this state for our people. That is a
poor argument. It is never well for a
man to stand in with the bad to secure
the good. But even if it were a good
argument it would be futile now, be
cause Cannonism! is doomed, and the
next session of congress will see the
czar of the house out for good, be
yond a question, and where will his
followers be then? Without influence.
in a place where they will have no
standing, the Cannon congressman
in the next session promises to be in
disfavor. The people are speaking all
over the country and the result is in
evitable. Oregon is one of the most
progressive states in the union, and it
is up to our people to keep it in the
front ranks. Because an assembly
nominee he will be an easier man to
defeat by a good democrat than Mr,
Mulkey. Nevertheless as an example
he should be defeated in the primaries
also.
IS A VIOLATION.
The local option law of Idaho was
again upheld by a decision handed
down by Judge K. L. Bryan, formerly
of Corvallis, in the District Court at
Caldwell last week. The decision was
the result of a case brought against
the janitor of the Payette Club, of
Payette, in Canyon county, Idaho,
charging him with dispensing of liquor
contrary to the local option law. The
plan of the Payette Club was for the
members to purchase a ticket for $10
and the ticket was punched according
to tlic number of drinks served to each
member. The club kept a stock of
wines, etc., and these were served by
the janitor to the club members. The
court, in its decision, holds that the
law applies to social clubs as well as
those actively engaged in the liquor
traffic, and that the transactions of
the Payette Club through the agency
of the janitor violated the law. Ex.
SHOULD BE DEFEATED.
'There arc two reasons why Judge
Burnett and Wallace R. McCamant
will be defeated for supreme judge.
One because the bench should be non
partisan, and the democrats already
lilling the otlices. Judges King and
Slater, have shown their ability for
the important positions, hacked by the
liar of the state in open session in
Portland, and another is because they
deliberately went itno an assembly sys
tem of nomination, when the laws of
Ihc state provided another method.
The people of Oregon are a very in
dependent set of American citizens,
and there is good reason to believe
that this year they will speak out in a
decided manner upon this question,
t hey certainly should do so.
ON THE LORD'S SIDE.
Hon. Tim Davenport, of Silvcrton,
father of Homer Davenport, says the
anti-asscmlilyiles are on the Lord's
side. That is a pretty good side to be
on. This is because the nominating
assembly 's an institution attempting
to take the power out of the hands of
the people and place it in the old ma
chins the Jaw sought to do away with.
That makes a plain enough case of it
on the side of the Lord, according to
Mr. Davenport's ideas of right and
wrong. All over Oregon there is a
like strong expression against the as
sembly, ami on primary day there is
going to be a rising against the as
sembly candidates that will lie sur
prising. It no candidate is in fhc
held then ng;iinst the assembly n.ftwed
nominee (here wilt be tin election day.
ami the noise will be louder Mill.
Back trim the Three Sisters.
The Muzamas reached the top of the
Throe Sisters last Friday at lililio a. in.
C. P. Aitchison, one of the p:irty, litis
returned to the valley, lie took" levtl
at the summit and says the height of
the mid. lie Sister is 10,'JUI feet, and
that both the others are at least '-'."at
feet higher, Coming down tb- whole
party took a slide of V00 feet. Tin
scenery was declared beautiful, and the
party were wonderfully pleased with
the trip, some declared the best yet.
SATURDAY NIGHT THOUGHTS.
A primary election in California had
a result that will have wide effect on
affairs. The so-called insurgents have
won out with an emphatic majority.
It means much. It speaks for a won
derful revolution in the sentiment of
people. It is going to be wide reach
ing. People are going to break away
from the party lash and vote accord
ing to their convictions and preferenc
es. It may be a matter of pride to
democrats to know that the conten
tions of the insurgents are also their
(contentions and have been, but so
long as ne ngni iracK is ueing uscu n
is a matter of common concern to
those having the welfare of the people
at heart.
1
Down with Cannon, is the cry all
over the country, because of what
Cannon has represented. The men
who have exalted him must take their
medicine.
It is to be hoped the independent
snirit of the aire nroves also a charac-
I tcr builder, the need of the times. In
stead of seeking higher things men
everywhere have becme bent on se
curing the mere pleasures of the
world, as fleeting as the clouds. It is
all right to enjoy life, and one does
well not to become a recluse and mope
in a cave or one's own den, but it is
well to weigh the consequences of a
life that is all selfishness, sure to re
sult in bitterness, and take warning
from the thousands of wrecks by the
wayside.
Of course Theodore Roosevelt has
been in the limelight this week. An
effort has been made to bring him out
on this matter of insurgency, taking
sides one way or the other, so far
without avail. But there are strong
indications that something is going to
occur of an exciting order, and a clap
of thunder is due almost any hour.
A great deal is said about the long
list of questions to vote on at the
coming election. It is well not to get
excited; but take the matter coolly,
study each question as well as pos
sible and then vote. The people rule.
of crime, this week met his death I
down in California and was brought to
Oregon for burial. One ought not
to need an example to convince one
that the life of crime is a disastrous .
one and sure to be fatal, a hopeless '
victinr with nnA hnnH pvprlnsh- '
ingly raised against his brother.

JEFF MYERS
IN TOWN
Hon. Jeff Myers, of Portland, passed
through the city last evening on his
way home from Newport, where he has
been for several days, getting an ocean
braceup for the coming strenuous 1
campaign tor tne govornordiiip. Mr.
Myers has a good record to run on.
When a member uf the blule legislature,
a senator from Linn county, he repre
sented his constituency in a satisfactory
manner. As the head of the Lewis and
Clark exposition he displayed executive '
capacity of a high order. He has shown
that he is trustworthy. He has a right
to run on his record. The state would
be far safer under him than under a pol-;
itician of the Jay Bowerman character. !
At the present time the Democrat's 1
guess is that Mr. West will receive the '
nomination at the hanas of the demo-
cratic votora, and it is the opinion is
the strongest candidate for the nlace. I
Nevertheless IV r. Myers is entitled to a
good word as he passes.
Topsy Turvy Monday.
The Salem Lodgo of Elks will bring
their big musical production "Topsy
Turvv" to this citv foi one Dertormanca
Monday, Aug. 22. Alhough the casti
is made up entirely of amateurs, the I
show promises to be on a par with
many oi tne professional aggregations
that invade the west. "Topsy Turvy"
is a musical comedy in two acts with
eighteen musical numbers and a world
of laughs. One of the features is the
dancing pony ballet. Many novelties
are promised in science and electrical
effects. The American Beauty chorus
is compdsed of sixteen of Salem's
sweetest and prettiest young ladies.
The cast proper comprises about fifty
people ami the comedians are said to be
funny and clever. Local theatre goers
are assured the trett of the season. A
largo augmented orchestra under the
direction of Prof. Willis McElroy will
be brought with the show and this
feature alone is well worth the admiss
sion. A Good Thing.

PERSONAL
Mrs. Beryl Marks returned from the
Bay this noon.
J. H. Ralston left this forenoon for
Cascadia for his lamily.
Mrs. U.lG.'Moon has returned from a
visit with Portland friends. .
Father O'Brien, in charge of the
Catholic car is the guest of Father
Lane for a few days.
Miss Crosno. of the Empire, has re

Mrs. George Taylor and daughters

where they have been several weeks.
Lawyer S. M. Garland returned last
night from Portland, where he had
been for consultation in reference to
the settlement of the difficulty between
the paper mill and the farmers around
Lebanon, not yet fixed up.
Among those going to the Bay this
afternoon were H. F. Merrill, Ed.
Fortmiller, Mrs. Jas. Nannev, of this
city, Geo, Bingham, Paul vVallace and
Joe Albert of Salem and Mrs. Geo. F.
Nevins of Portland.
H. O. Thompson, Hon. M. Kem, Ed.
Spray and Tom Parker arrived last
evening from Cottage Grove, in their
auto, and the flaming signs on their
machine showed that they were on a
triD boosting the proposed Nesmith
county. The Democrat office acknow
ledges a call. The Democat man sug
gested that Spray drop the S from his
name and it might help. This will .no
doubt be done after a consultation with
Col. Hofer.
The men are dead in earnest, as en
thusiastic as a school girl on gradua
tion. They contended with all their
might that the proposed section is en
titled to organization as a new county.
Their figures show Nesmith as outlined
will have 1,940 square miles, of which
1,472 are taken from Lane's 4,380 and
468 from Douglas 4.861. The assess
ment oi tne section is $o,3Uo,3Uii or
which $4,004,273 is from Lane, leaving
it $18,002,647 and $1,805,302 from
DouglaB, leaving it over $27,000,000.
The population of Nesmith is 8,656, of
which 7,680 is from Lane and 986 from
Douglas.
There are eight or ten proposed new
counties. The position of the Democrat
is to investigate. If the circumstances
call for a new county vote yes, if not vote
no. It is up to theoters of Oregon.
New System Originated in the
Hub City.
The universal satisfaction which the
S. W. Miller Piano gives to each cus
tomer makes it a perfectly safe piano
to buy. Our TEN YEAR suarantee is
just a good plain agreement that we !
win give you a perfectly made high
grade piano which combines all of the
good qualities so necessary in the con
struction of a good sounding and good
wearing piano. Don't expect to hear
of the good qualities of the S. W. Mil
ler Piano from people who have other
makes to sell you. Our svstem of buy
ing direct from the factory and selling '
direct to the home of the user saves :
you the JOBBERS, DEALERS and1
AGENTS profits and enables you to I
buy the unsurpassed S. W. Miller piano
at Jess than the price which is usually I
asked for a cheaply made instrument.
We are the originators of this system
in Albany: Woodworth Drug Co. '
A Portland Auto Party.
A distinguished party of Portland
people spent last night at the Hotel
Revere, leaving this forenoon in their '
auto cars for home. They had been up
the McKenzie fishing, and undoubtedly
had good luck, for one little girl said
they caught thirteen trout and bad
doodles of fun, which is going some for
millionaires and millionairesses. The
Farty consisted of Mr. and Mrs. M. H. I
nsley, Mr. and Mrs. J. B'. Shepherd
ana Teddy shepherd, K. K. Manoney,
Dorothy Corbett, Botty Hailey and
Mansfield the driver.

against the assembly candidates.
Senator Chamb erlain Here.
Senator Geo. E. Chamberlain was in.
the city between trains yesterday after
noon, visiting his former fellow citi
zens, while on his way to Portland from
Southern Oregon. He is making good
in the senate, a valuablo member of
that august body. One of the best
evidences of his ability and faithfulness
as a U. S. Senator is the fact the Ore
gonian continually "whacks" him. a
compliment to any decent official. While
in t'regon he will see as many of the
people of the stale as possible and en
deavor to learn their needs in a public
way.

If Jay Bowerman for governor and
J. N. Hart for attorney general are a

Oregon from any more of it.
The whole country is a hot bed of in
surgency. The people are rising
against Cannonism, graft, unreasonable
tariff schedules and corruption.
The administration has put its ear to
the ground, and here is what it heard:
"Cannon must go." There will be
something doing along that line.
Nevertheless the absence of the sa
loon has been a big thing for Albany.
The city is far better off without it,
una so is uny city, regaiuicDo wi uuuu-
piggism.
Cannon is defiant. The people should
also be defiant and defert every Can
non candidate for congress. This coun
try has been disgraced long enough by
Cannonism.

Where prohibition doesn't prohibit
there are officials who do not enforce.

All newspapers have occasional mis
prints. The Chicago Tribune, in re
porting a political meeting, said that
the vast audience rent the air with
their snouts. Another Chicago paper
reported the Propeller Alaska ,as leav
ing port with a cargo of 50,000 bushels
of cats. A Buffalo paper, in describing
the scene when Roosevelt took his oath
of office as President, said it was a
spectacle never to be forgotten when
Roosevelt, before the Chief Justice of
the Supreme Court and a few august
witnesses, took his simple bath.
This contest between Albany and
Corvallis continues to be funny. The
Gazette-Times is willing to admit that
Albany can raise cabbage heads on hu
man shoulders, but declares the soil of
Corvallis so rich and the water so per
fect that it is possible to water a boul
der and grow a brown stone front and
the sprinkling of a buffalo chip will de
velop a Jersey heifer. And we are a
happy contented people. Long ago
have we learned how to hitch the wood
shed to the celler and go out in our
dustless carriage for a joyless joyride
with fineless court session on the mor
row. Albany may be the Hub, but
Corvallis is the universe itself. '
Probably the newspaper gives more
for nothing than any one else in the
world, continually being called upon
for free advertising, things that should
be paid for. The following card of
thanks in a middle west paper is sug
gestive of the way the newspaper is
sometimes grafted:
