About Albany democrat. (Albany, Or.) 1900-1912 | View Entire Issue (Oct. 20, 1911)
John L. Sullivan is said to have changed his mind about going to con gress, a good thing for congress. The man who depend? upon an alarm clock for success has a narrow margin to work on. The war between Turkey and Italy is about the tamcht on record, which is the way a war ought to be. I'utty bullets wouldn't be bad. If Uncle Sain would get a new suit of clothes and a more stylish hat per haps Miss Canada wouldn't mind the reciprocity proposal. The sentiment for Oov Woodrow Wilson for president seems to be gen eral and far-reaching, ife has the confidence of all classes of people. A President of the U. S. has to have some kind of a smile. It is a part oj the business. Anyway who wouldn't smile if filling the highest position in the world. It helps one who is doing well, to be encouraged. This is human na ture and proper. Jlow little most of us appreciate it, though in the hurry and bu.iile of life. President Taft, in Albany today, on his present trip will speak to the peo ple of twenty-four states. It would be interesting to know jut how many votes he actually make.i by the jaunt. Another straw speaking for the progress of tlte world is the fact that Goleh, the champion wrestler of the world, is a hot insurgent. y the way the insurgents have sort of toe hold themselves on affairs political. An editorial in a big Chicago paper reads: Who Uwns the family Urn brclla. In the Democrat man's fain ily it has never been learned who doe; own a couple of them, just been hang ing around for a year or two. If J. V, Morgan actually does sonic thing practical along the line of secur ing peace between nations at swords points he will be entitled to be called king ot psace as well as kin gof jinance. .Some lawyers back east have been laboring to learn the difference be tween a resident, citizen, inhabitant and tax payer. Try the supreme court, which according to President Taft is infallible. Mayor Wallace has done so well, and has filled, the position so efficient ly afld acceptably, there is a field for him just another term, in. the interest of an excellent policy of progress that is doing much for Albany. Thai dam at Austin, like the charac ters of a good many people, lacked a good foundation. It whs built on shale and sandstone. The supcrstritc-j ture was first-class, well made, but the; substructure was faulty. I he lesson I along all lines is so plain it does not need 10 be staled, j i he Oregon system is spreading out over the United Slates. Califor nia has fallen into line. Close to Ore gon, the people there have had a chance to see the merits of the sys tem. They must have observed that it is doing much to take power back into the handof the people, and away from the politicians. President Taft vetoed two bills that would have put millions of dflars in the pockets of the people and taken millions out of the coffers of the trusts, It was undoubtedly in the in terest of the men who have been run ning the government for a number of years. iA drummer in the city remarked in the IH-niocrat office that it didn't take long after getting into a place to; leant whether a business man can be I trusted or not, that general reputation ' is a sufficient guide, and one easily! learned. Mm build their reputations daily, and there arc few men who reside in a place long without most of; the people of the city knowing wheth er they arc trustworthy or not. lcp utation is worth something in the journey of life after all, and has more, than financial consideration.

The starting of a revolution in China is perhaps the leading event of the world. It is time the people there woke up to their rights and made it manifebt to the world that they are more than chattels, a fact they are fast finding out by association with the people of the United States. 'The average Chinaman is merely a thing under the present Chinese govern ment. It is right that he should be more. It will he pleasing to see a re public established. China has men eminently able to cope with the great problems of democracy. This week another state stepped into the line established by Oregon, and adopted the initiative, referendum and recall, the modern system of gov ernment by the people. It is spread ing fast. Oregon took it up when it was an experiment and has put it on its feet. It has brought to the front the recall, just as necessary m gov eminent as in the management of a store. i California took a decided step by the adoption of woman suffrage, it the better element in the state want it this is a good move; but n the clean women of a state propose to allow the worse clement to run things, they have done in Colorado and Wyoming, then it is doubtful. This week the fourth president to be in Albany stopped a few uiinutes at our depot, and made an informal talk of seven minutes, an event ap predated. The Ocmocrat believes it is a privilege to see the chief execu tive of a nation, regardless of his poli-. tics, tor he is the president ot all the people. The other presidents to be here were Mayes, Harrison and Roosevelt.' Some one adds Bryan, but the four arc all. The Democrat will be glad to report a visit some day from President Wilson. This week another holiday was in augurated, Columbus day, in honor of the discoverer ofAmerica. He prob ably deserves it; but it is not very cer tain whether there is a place for many more holidays. Most people work just the same, perhaps those who need rest the most taking advantage of the average holiday least. In the mad rush after wealth it might be a good thing if we had more, if they woifld observe them. , . ... (FRIDAY.-) Rev. C. L. Jones Back Into the Ministry. liuv. Evert L. Jones has passed the necessary examination, satisfactorily, ami is soon to be orduinnd. tie has ac cepted a call to tho pastorate of the Preshyterian church ut Tillamook, where he is ulready preaching.

Ho relumed to Oregon, and wus in- tho real estate business in Portland, also preaching some. Journalistic ambition induced him to cstublish a paper ac Albany, the American Citizen, which suspended after u few months, and Mr. Jones went to Portland, where he was ad mitted to tho bar. He has concluded to return to the ministry, for which he has splendid pulpit tulents, a preacher of market1 ability, eloquent and able. It he sticks close to this text and leaves other things alone he is bound to make a success of it, a useful man in a great profersion and certainly has tho best wishes of many Albany people Therorlune Hunter, v Tomorrow night t the hih school budding I'aul Blackwell will present the Fortune Hunter, something de'erv ing a big house, tie is an entertainer of rare merit.

It is hard to tell the dove of peace irom a destroyer. The president today saw the finest valley in the country. Now is the time to p!ant strawberries ior next year. How eaBy to talk peace; but what does it mean with a policy all war. Glad to see you Bill, come again, but hope the next time it is just as Judge Taft.
