Wl'RNAL PRINTING CO., PIBLIShLHS QRTLAND, Ott MAY 6, 1902 -, ;, THE FEE SYSTEM. ,Mr. Furnish to In fw of continuing 'm ; ' -, Is present unconstitutional and uncon v , , sckmable system of fees, .whereby the , emolument Sat state- officers are welled beyond all reason. Mr. Chamberlain haa i attacked this system. ' Aa a, result all . the' beneficiaries of the present system er for' airt FurTflsh and against Mr. Chamberlain,' - . , v; 'This la at new. auction. Publlo - aeaUment ha tons' been atroag la tavor cfi a referra In thta tastier; Indeed It was so' strong la 15M that -ta Republican party could Dot resist a declaration on the subject. It promised reform of .the A- fee system, but it took Its own 'declara , . tion in a Pickwickian sense. Kow hers , ' ' Is '.what the Republican platform of ISM aid: i . The offices of the 'administrative do- ;li pwrtment of the state have become too : cxpenBl v'ft-theh-penges must - he ' reduced. When the Constitution fixes " the ssJa"imlth Cdn8titutlonat salary - - ahull be paid,' without additional emolu .meats. 4. The : fcraetice of, employing un necessary clerks and of paying fees In excess of fust payment for services need ed or rendered has become . an. abuse " that must be cut oft, and we pledge the , Republican' party to prosecution and ac complishment of this reform." Now this abuse has not been corrected or' diminished lo the slightest degree. ' On the contrary It has been augmented. - Mr- Chamberlain has again-pointed out these abuses. He rails for their cor . rectlon put Mr. rultoii, speaking for . . . Mr. - Furnish, chillonge Mr.. Chamber lain's position.- Hv contends that there - is ho abuse. He thinks some $10,000 paid to the Secretary of State s office la not -- too much and more than $10,000 paid that Officer In fee over and above his salary 4 expenses Is nobody's business. .Now what did the Republican Legisla ' lure do following the declaration of ISM. A bill was Introduced In the House to , carry out the pledge of the Republican party, "for the prosecution and accomp . ' llshment of this reform." But It did not Include all the state offices. Motion was then offered to refer the bill to a spe cial committee of frra with Instructions -. t amend W as to Includo all state ofll ' . cers, the committee to report back ths (, bill at S o'clock that diy. The motion was lost A motion was then made to - recommit the bill with instruction to put th Secretary of State on salary of four . thousand dollars and Treasurer of Btats a four thousand dollars and all fees patd - Into the general fund, of the state. The " ' motion was lost. A motion was then made to indefinitely postpone the whole . matter, and by a vote of the Republi can house it was indefinitely postponed, . and remains postponed to this day. AR these proceedings may t. found In the Heuso Journal of 1SSS, pages $25 and 826. So the Republican pledge of. 1894, de situated to get votes and not to be kept, sras broken. jBut the question was not dead, but only slept. The people know about these illegal fees and are again demanding re- - , lief. So in obedience to that public sen timent which, Influence platforms, both ' - tBe..Republican and .'the Democratic plat forms of 1902 declare for the abolish- i : Blent of these foes and for flat salaried. Mr. Chamberlain stands upon both these v platforms. Mr. Furnish stands upon - - neither. There 13 this much credit due - . Mr, Furnish and Mr. Pulton; They make . ni secret of their opposition to the Re- j publican platform on this subject. They Join Issue with Mr. Chamberlain and by ! the same tokon, wllh the Republican con Yt :: vemion. They go 'to the people with the ' " frank avowal that tnere Is nothing wrong ! fn these fees, and that Mr. Chamber Iain's contention Jos not meet their ap-- . provat nd will not receive their official . sauctlon. Eyery voter, therefore, who , -votes for Mr. Furnish or for Mr. Ful- : ton for State Senator must do so with the understanding that these srentle- I met! publicly proclaim their adherence to the fee system, and that an election . ' will Justify them in retaining it. They --have wtpn.tit the Republican ptank cgalnst f-s. anl are running on a plank -ptthe'r own, in favor of fees. There is r.O thing strange about this In the case of Mr. Furnish. He knows how It Is -' -- htmsalf. This story has ancthpr chapter. Th r. Matthews party docs not stand upon the : Rpubllcajj plntform denouncing fees. It does no)L. eonqern Itsell aout p'atforms. fdr Jt ha a spokesman to Bpeak for il t every day." Its purposes and policies are "J."- foun4 la It organ, the Orgonlan. from -,1-day ta day. .That paper of yesterday, speaking for the Matthews Legislative ', " ticket, says on this subject: " - ' i,t (the flat salary) might prove the ' . mora eooaomloal way. It seems oer , tain, however, that on this subject the OmsMtuUoa Is never to be obeyed. The taokatf sOMUt it lhat .!coma op periodi cally 1 mostly for election purposes, ba la to esy, the Matthews ticket f agrees wttk Mr. frttrnteband Ifr.

At least wa have their solemn as surance that will try to abolish these fees, and we also the solemn assurance of Mr. Furnish, through Mr. Fulton, who Is maklnr his campaign for him. that these feoa ought not to fee alobllshed and the solemn assurance 'Of the Ore gonian that Its Matthews ticket, is not expected V abolisn: them.

It la not necessary; The state 1 "solid" for the Republicans and the Administration spends thl money In California and Washington, where It will do th most good. California was Democratlo also about th sam time ..Washington was. If this stat should also go Democratic and th Administration should think It advisable In order, to get this state Into line to spend 110,000,000 per annum bare, what of It? From a purely Republican standpoint, would thl b an Irretrlev able disaster . Why not eAH M. ' Furnish a ''Captain of Industry" Haa he not shown his ability to M org nix every office he ever heldr THd its not, by his "business methods,'' make fiS OOO per annum as a Democratic Sheriff of Umatilla Coun ty? How did ha "farm" the office of Deputy United States Marshal under Cleveland, In his "whleky to Indians" campaign? Why can't Mr. Furnish and Jack Matthews, In their reformer role of "business method" form a state trust and own the stats? If hs Is not now a captain of Industry, give him and Matthews a change. They are both comparatively youns; yet. We really did not take the Oregonlan seriously when it oppoaed Mr. Chamber lain on the ground that the Fair of 1905 ought not to be opened by a Democrat. But It persists In the contention with npparent sincerity, we are quite sure the psople don't want politics mixed with the Fair. But since the question Is up. let's examine it a Httle, The functions of Governor on such an occasion call for peculiar qualifications. He must be a man of address, of ready and graceful speech, polite.-, sociable, amiable, not silent, awkward, embarrassed and of no presence. Now choose your man. Hl frlnnds will f?el sorry for a good llow like Mr. Furnish that he should represented as delivering a speech. He is a gooi business man, an able 1-ankiT, an accumulator of wealth and worthy citizen, but It Is a mockery of the poor fellow to represent him as an orator. It's not fnlr. The latent Is Mr. Colvlg. a former Democrat, for Furnish. He Is not nuite up to Mr. Furnish's class." lie Is only a 2-year-old. The Oreeunlan la full of reports that there Is no defection from Furnish. There Is no better proof of widespread defec tion. That "roonlng" may be heard after the votes are counted. long One on Piatt. Senator Piatt of Connecticut was bulld Inir a house. He had occasion to hire a carpenter, who was plain, unvarnished son of Jv'ew England. vtj know alt about carpenter work?" asked Senator Piatt. "Yes, sir, was the reply. , "You can make -windows, doors and blinds?" ' "Oh, yen, sir." "How would you make a Venetian bllno. The man thought ateadlly tor several minutes. "I. think." he remarked finally, "that I would punch, him la th eye." POINTED REMARKS: This Is ths Very Ker ! of lha Question.) -7 ' To th kdlter: On ths M of May the Oregonlan 'cSntained an editorial squib which read as follows: , "Tou need not call the Simon clan by a Republican name ui.lest yon are fond of misnomers." I suppose thl 14 Intended to mean that those who voted the regular, ticket at th primary election held on - th. Jt)i of Mafrh ar nat t be desmed Republicans because large numbers of them refused to support the SeoU-Mflt thews ticket, which will go on the official ballot as a Republican ticket this yeari' ' Of course this Is true; the Oregonlan never makes misstatements of facts. In political matters. But ir It la true, what is, to be said of the candidates on the Scott-Matthews ticket, and what, by the way. Is to be said of Matthews himself, Scott's chairman jf the Republican. stats committee, or of Carey, Scott' chairman of the Republican county committee? Matthews and Carey engaged In a pri mary flRht in'ISSO. They were unfortu nate enough to he on the losing side. Did they support xhe Rvpuulican ticket? Have they suppi-teil the Republican ticket at any state election since that time? Is It not a matter of ' public notoriety that they supported tht Mitchell ticket" In 1896, the anti-Simon tsvket in IffS, and h Citlans' tlckti.i 1900? Are they In - any position to urge men to vote the Republican tlelut this year? Does an exhortttlon tn support of party fealty coma with good) , grace -from them at this tlma? ? The same may be said of th candidates on their ticket. It ntiBht?) possible with diligent effort; 'to flr.d two or three men out of the' 50 or 60 who arS 'running on the, Scott-Matthews tlckt who have good party records and ar entitled be called Republicans. Aa to these two or three I have nothing to aay. But how can th argument In support of part fealty be urged hv such men as Dan. X Majarkey. I pick out Mr. Malarkey an example because the ticket for the most part Is made up of men whose party record Is rutatantlally the same as his, Mr. Malarkey probably cast hi first Vote In 1S92 and presumably It wn mst for the Citizens' ticket, for his father was elect o-l County Treasurer on the Citizens' ticket at that time, Mr Malarkey may have voted the Republican ticket In 1894. although I do not believe that he would even claim -that he voted It straight. It l a ipltttif' Of tfuWhc notoriety that he nd his .aoct&tes en the ticket, too numerous to mention voted the Mitchell ticket in 186, the antt Simon ticket In IKK and the Citizen' ticket In 1900. There la also a contingent .on this BoOtt Matthews ticket of men who have always been Democrats. George M. " Orton was nominated and elected to the Legislature two year ago as a Democrat, There ar at least three or f mr Other men on the Scott-Matthews, ticket who record as Democrats is aa consistent 'a .nr. Or- ton's. These men Voted th Democratlo ticket two year go and .Indorsed the Democratic platform which called for the abandonment of the Philippines. Now w are told by the Oregonlan that Republl cans Ilk myself must vote for these men In order to Indorse ths expansion policy which these men voted against two year a.'-- I believe In party fealty, but no man becomes a Republican by receiving nomination at the hands of the Scott' Matthews convention. I believe In no po litical legerdemain which can compel Re. publican to vote for men who are not Republicans. I can see nothing but moonshine In the argument that I must support such men as Orton and Malarkey In order to Indorse principle which they themselves have nrer approved tn the past Put your organization In the hands of Republicans and . nominate Ba your candidates for office Republicans with good party records and I will vote your ticket, however dMtasteful "the nominees may be to me, but I will not Vote for Incompetent and unsatisfactory candi dates with the party records of Orton and Malarkey, In order to send either H. W. Scott or Charles W. Fulton to the United State Senate. WALLACE McCAMANT. T. P. CONNER'S ADVICE TO YOUNG JOURNALISTS I turn to the training of the young as pirant for the literary side of a paper. First, I repeat the warning I have al ready given: It Is not wise for any man to take up Journalism unless he has a distinct gift for writing. Let me, how ever. Immediately add that it is not easy always for the young man to answer that question satisfactory In his own out. He may err on the aide of want of modesty; but he also may err on the side of excess of it. It Is difficult for most of us to know what powers we have or what we lack, until we have been tried until the op portunity has come to us. There Is one, wayjof testing your powers of writing that Is a hnare. Young writer constantly tome to me wllth what thef carfessays. I never look at them: life 1 too short now for essays. When you have become a literary man of repute, and xan wrltp like Matthew Arnold or Mn. Dlrrell, you lo something with essays; but until that moment arrives it Is difficult for you to net anybody to look at your essays. 1 iki- an incident within your own knowledge a departure of volunteers, ;ay. for the war; a trial at the assize lown in which your life, If you live In ne- or something of that kind; try to seize the Human and dramatic points of the story: and then let your article be rend by some competent critic; and so you will 'feet something like a judgment worth attending to as to whether you have- or have not the gift of writing. I use word "gift" advisedly. The longer I. live, the more I see that though you may enormously improve pat ural ttifts by training and practice, you can not supply them If they be wanting. At schools they still compel unfortunate children, who -have not a note of music in ineir nrains, to spend years at the piano. It is Just as wicked a waste of time to send to journalism anybody who has no original gift for writing from the hand of nature; for Journalism Is one of the professions where one ought to be really good. Mere moderate ability does not bring uflicient remuneration or suf ficient certainty of work to make Journal ism a good profession. It ta like paint ing; either a man is a good painter and then makes a handsome income, or he is just a middling painter, and then he Is liable to starve, Pearson' Magazine, ...v.-w " ,. . .. facts wftwcE; fit I Strang how any man venturing to differ with, or falling to follow th po tical gyration f -the tower" loses at enc all ssilmabi auaiitles Awarding to th ' Oregonlan, ; Judge 'Stephen ".

As to the right to know "the cost of table supplies" that Is the husband's privilege. Hs earns the money and it is his right to 'know how it Is spent. This sentiment does not at all interfere with the wife's prerogative as equal part ner. It simply accords to the husband a like partnership. The average husband Is better satisfied to give hi wife a house hold allowance, after which he doesn't Interest himself in the details. of house keeping a long as the home is attractive aad supplied with comforts In accord with expenditures. Even then, he feels that he Is the head of the household be cause he Is. the source of all Its material supplies. All this may be Included In the general subject of "managing a husband."

The figures given by the "Detailed Ab stract of the 1901 Census Beturns for th County of London" apply exclusively to the administrative county of London, and the persons actually within that sphere on the night of. the census, London, as every one must be aware. Is a name of peculiar elasticity. If we take It, for In stance, to mean the municipal city of London the "one square mile'' we find that its stationary population is only 2,23 souls. And If, on the other hand, we take It to Imply so-called "Greater London." which embraces " over ' 400.000 acres and Includes such - distant suburb as Epsonv Farnaborough Barnet and w&itham Abbey, Londoners may then boast the mighty DODUlatlon of ovr 6,E00,O0O (6,5S1.S7I). Actually, however, we are concerned With London County prop er, created in 1888 from parts of Middle sex, Surrey and Kent,,, and having an area of nearly 78,009 acres. The total pop ulation of London, .in- this meaning. Is 1.536,541., In 1801 the population was Just under 1.000,000 t39,J10) It has, therefore, Increased during the century nearly five fold, but since 18S1 a decline In the rate has been In steady progr; One of the most potent causes Influencing this de crease In the rate 0f growth of popula tion within the country area Is th miti gation of Londoners to the suburban dis tricts. During, the last, 10 years the loss by migration is calculated as exceeding 1SO.OO0. This centrifugal dispersion of town population Is, however,- shared by all great, old and prosperous cities.
