"BIG TIM'S" REPLY.
Asked how he liked his new duties
as congressman by one of his close
personal friends in the east side, the
late Timothy Sullivan replied that, "a
congressman in Washington is of
about as much importance ns a wooden
Indian standing out in front of a ci
gaistorc." The answer was characteristic of
the Tammany leader and more than
this, it was the exact trutl.
There is but one exception to the
rule that "a prophet is not without
honor save in his own country," and
that is when Uic prophet is fortunate
enough to be elected a member of
congress. Few congressmen obtain
more than a passing glance from the'
old residents of Washington. All of
them gain in dignity and importance
hen they cross their own state line.
At home they arc big men and refer
red to by their constituents as states
men. In Washington they are mere
members of congress.
"Mig Ttitn" Sullivan was supreme
on the cast side, lie was respected
and admired. In Washington he was
like scoies of o'ther congressmen, just
a cog in the wheel of legislation, and
a small cog at that.

Lorimcr held a higher position. lie
was a member of the greatest deliber
ative body in the world, and served
thecorporations more effectively than
did Sullivan. If he received a hun
dred thousand dollars for his services,
he never gave a cent of it to the poor,
die never brightened a home with
Christmas cheer, never sent a physi
cian to those who were in need of
medical attention, or fed a small ar
my of unemployed .men who were
crying for bread. Lorimcr was a sel
fish type of politician. He made poli
tics his business and declined to take
his friends and supporters into part
nership. To our mind the Sullivan brand of
politics was bad. The Lorimer brand
was worse. The former was a slave
to his personal ambition and the lat
ter to greed. Sullivan displayed one
of the rarest of virtues in politics
gratitude to those who made him.
Lorimcr used his friends to further
his own selfish interests and gave
nothing in return.
There arc thousands of Lorimers
in political life today. There arc but
few Timothy Sullivans outside of
Kew York.
A WRONG CONCEPTION
Many of the papers which arc con
demning in no uncertain terms, the
appearance of Secretary Bryan on
the Chautauqua platform, pass over
with little comment the startling re
velations brought out by the con
gressional' lobby inquiry. That
.members of the Senate and House
have accepted retainers from the
big interests, that the National
Association of manufacturers has for
years maintained a paid lobby at the
National Capita! for no other pur
pose than to throttle legislation de
signed for the benefit of the common
people and that the legislative branch
of the government has been con
ducted in the interest of the tariff
protected trusts, is a matter of little
concern to the same editorial writ
ers. Had Secretary Bryan accepted a re
tainer from a New York corporation
instead of going on the Chautauqua
program in order to meet the en
ormous expense of maintaining the
dignity of his office, we presume
that these same newspapermen would
have little cause for complaint. Con
sistency has never been the distin
guishing virtue of the critics of W. J.
Mryau.

-Fail to Restrian" instead of
"Knowingly Permit" Is
Amendment Clause.
OWNERS ARE LIABLE AT
ALL TIMES FOR DOG
Whether They '-Know of Their
Own Knowledge" Does Not
Enter into Question.
Any person who shall "fail to re
strain" instead of "knowingly permit"
a dog to run at large within the city
limits, is an amendment clause adop
ted by the countcil last night for the
"dog ordinance," which makes it a
misdemeanor for the running at large
of dogs and places the owners liable
to a fine of $10 to $25.
In other words, ii the owner of a
dog is arrested because his dog is
running at large, he will have to suf
fer the consequences upon convictioin
in the police court, whether he knew
of his own knowledge that the dog
was at large but upon the fact that
the dog belonging to him was at large
and by the fact that he "failed to re
strain." This action on the part of the coun
cil is the result of the case the city
recently lost to P. C. Anderson, when
Police Judge Van Tassel ruled that
the defendant was not guilty because
he did not know of his own knowl
edg that the dog was running at large.
The title of the amendment to the
ordinance as passed sometime ago by
the council is as follows:
An ordinance to amend section 7,
of ordinance No. 640, entitled "an
ordinance prohibiting dogs from run
ning at large within the city limits
and providing for catching, impound
ing and killing such dugs as shall be
found running at large contrary to
this ordinance and providing a pun
ishment for owners of dogs who per
mit dogs to run at large within the
city," passed by the council May 14,
1913.
The amendment is as follpws:
Sec. 7. Any person who shall fail
to restrain a dog owned by him or
under his control from running at
large within the city shall be deemed
guilty of a misdemeanor and upon
conviction before the recorders court
shall be punished by a fine of not
less than ten nor moiv than twenty
five dollar. s
The old ordinance reads as follows:
Sec. 7. Any person who shall
knowingly permit a fdog owned by
him or under his control to run at
large within the city limits, shall be
deemed guilty of a inisdemanor ;nd
upon conviction before the recorder's
court, shall be punished hy a fine of
not less than ten nor more tlnr.
twenty-five dollars.

GHAS. SMITH IS NOT
Sale of Automobile Squares
Kim Here But It Takes .
$1000 for Other Bills.
Eugene, Or., Sep. 16. The Guard
says:
But while the sale of this automi
bile clears up in Albany so far as his
financial record is concerned, it does
not straighten out his affairs in Eu
gene, for the check which he depos
ited -here was not honored in Califor
nia, so the checks he issued here for
the purchase of the automobile and
others aggregating it is said, close
to $1000, have not been made good.
So shrewd was Smith in his prepar
ations to avoid arrest that he almost
bluffed his way to liberty when ar
rested at Wcodburn. When arrested
he gave a false name and told the of
ficers to look at the license tag on his
automobile and call up the secretary
of state's office and verify it. This
was done, and the name tallied. How
he secured the tag is not known. This
almost convinced the Woodburn of
ficials they had the wrong man, but
for the fact that just before he reach
ed Woodburn his automobile scared
the horses of a farmer who met him,
resulting in a runaway, which demol
ished the wagon and injured the driv
er, causing the Woodburn officers to
hold him on that ground.
HITCHING RACKS WERE
INSTALLED ON LOT TODAY
F. M. Mitchell Was the First
Farmea to Tie His Team to
New Tying Post.
After clearing the lot at the corner
of Second and Broadalbin street yes
terday, Street Superintendent Glen
M. Junkin, and the street department
crew today installed a hitching rack
row, consisting of several posts
strung across the east side of the
lot, connected by a long galvanized
pipe.
This is the result of a desire on the
part of the city council to secure a
centrally located place to install hitch
ing racks and drinking fountains for
horses. Inasmuch as it will be some
time before the federal building is to
he constructed on the lot. the matter
of using the lot for this purpose was
taken up with the local post office
authorities, with the result that per
mission for its use was granted.
The first farmer who had the honor
of lying his team to the rack this
morning was F. !U. Mitchell, a lead
ing Linn county farmer and granger
residing a few miles east of here.

Meeting at Plainview.
STATE WIDE PROHIBITION!
GETS VOTE OF MAJORITY
Interesting Papers Read and
Questions of Interest to Temp
erance Movement Discussed.
The annual county convention of
the W. C. T. U. was held at Plain
view on September 11-12. Mrs.
Madge J. Mears, county president was
in charge. The attendance was large,
and the open-hearted hospitality of
the Plainview people was taxed to
the utmost to house the swarm of
delegates.
The sessions were full of good
things. On the first afternoon when
the preliminary business was dis
posed of came a symposium on the
topic: The W. C. T. U., (a) As a
Moral Force: (b) As a Political
Force; (c) As an Educational Force.
These phases of the organization
were presented in a very able man
ner by Mrs. Peranogain. Mrs. Todd
and Miss Sutherland. Each speaker
showed thoughtful preparation and
each presented practical, helpful facts
which were to the point and showed
progressive alertness.
A paper by Mrs. Forbes on "Our
Future Citizens" was fine. She out
lined in a forceful way what our fu
ture citizens should be and wdiat they
might be if the parents and teachers
did their whole duty in preparing the
young for citizenship.
"Our Temperance Laws" were pre
sented by Mrs. Henrietta Brown. Dis
cussion followed and questions asked
showed marked intelligence and an
eagerness to become acquainted with
both state and municipal laws, and
also indicated that our women will
not only use the right of suffrage
but vote intelligently.
The" evening was given over to a
gold medal contest. Special music
had been prepared and the' orations
were unusually well presented. Miss
Morganson of Shedd won the medal
with Miss Gibson of North Albany
a close second, there being onlv a
fraction in favor of the winner. The
forenoon of the second day was taken
up with business. Reports were made
showing that the work is progress
ing. Harrisburg won the banner for
the largest per cent of gain in mem
bership. The officers elected for the
coming year were: Mrs. Madge J.
Mears, president: Mrs. Dora Davis,
corresponding secretary: Mrs. Alice
Fletcher, recording secretary: Mrs.
Orcn Stratton. treasurer. .-1I these
are the old officers excepting Mrs.
Stratton. They are efficient, true
and tried and will lead the organiza
tion to new attainments.
In the afternoon "The Cigarette"
was ' discussed hy a representative
from the Brownsville union, in an
able manner and as a result of this
discussion, something will be doing
in the near future.
A paper by Mrs. Hammer on "The
Bible in the Public Schools" was a
splendid argument and plea for rc
insiaiing the old Book in the schools
of our land. A symposium on nirity
