PORTLAND, ORE., JULY 6, 1902
PUBLIC 8ENTIMENT GOVERNS.
After all, the people rule, and publlo
sentiment is 'the real arbiter. It la a
troth that might be -well Masoned upon
the banner of the labor leadera and pon
tered at all their gatherings. No -movement
van succeed without the strength
publlo aentlment' behind- It u
" In the case of the coal strike In the
anthracite' region of Pennsylvania the
-wild bualneaa sense of the numerous
- tommunltiea is behind the strikers,
', reinforced -by the sympathy for un
derpaid men who are engaged in work
that shortens lite end furnshes m
tle of " relief from dreary labor and de
privation. There people know that
man who works K day a tear at about
W-60 a day receiving about $300 annu
ally, perhaps- with a family, cannot sup
port himself, and them as he should.
The Deople know. too. that the coal,
baroni grow irulgarly rich, are opulent,
piling up wealth beyond the dreams of
the most visionary Oriental monarch,
and extracting all of this treasure from
, the very heart blood of their employee.
The people know all -of these things,
and,' knowing, they hesitate not to sup
port John Mitchell and his followers in
the great anthracite strike.
It la the force of publlo sentiment that
f back the coal miner a in their demands,
and. even though they fall for the mo
ment to win their Just requests, in the
end they will conquer the cruel rulers
of the mining empire of the Easti
Any strike that is Inaugurated must
rest upon publlo sentiment, If it be sue
cessfut. Any strike in Portland must
rest thereon. If it do not, then it will
fail, and ignominlously, as it should.
' Let labor leaders not forget these
truths'. They - are fundamental. They
may not be disregarded by him who
would carry on reforms for the great
body of wage-earners of this country.
If, labor leaders forget these truths, then
will they barm the cause they would
help, and bring disaster upon their foh
lowers and upon the city for the pros
perity of which they in large part are
responsible.
CUSTODY OF PUBLIC FUNDS.
Probably there could be ample ex
- planation ottered why. so large' a sum
of money should be on hand in the State
, Treasury at one time, yet the fact re
mains tnat it was there. State Treasurer
the balance on hand was $828,297.25, and
. that he received during the first six
months of the year $1,203,327.37.
The first item is the most interesting,
' ahd most fruitful of discussion. Taking
the total volume of business transacted
by the State of Oregon, and it seems to
the average business man that $828,000 la
too much capital to be lying Idle in the
: Treasury vaults. It la too large a por
tion of the whole working capital of the
State Government Why does not It earn
1 sums Interest? Why does not it exercise
the same function that Is exercised by
' the capital of the citizen that need not
be used in his business?
Borne of the funds, no doubt, could not
1 earn that Interest. Doubtless, It comes
in such a manner as to preclude that Pim-
iiblllty. Nevertheless, the problem that
faces' counties and states and that has
faced them for, lo, these many years. Is
' the handling of the public funds In a
. ififnner to secure the same revenue as
comes to the private Individual in the
- conduct 01 his affairs.
The bald, bare fact remains, that im
mense sums of the people's ' money lie
idle in the Treasury vaults. Why should
.. theyT " "
"ANTI-RAILROAD" GOVERNORS.
, Governor Van Sant of Minnesota and
Governor , McBride of Washington ap
pear to have the support of the people In
their respective states. They are what
are" sometimes; cslled erroneously "antl-
.... railroad" Governors. It would be correct
to denominate them "pro-people" Gover
nors. .They represent primarily positive
effort to protect the people's rights, and
; positive ' determination to enforce the
people's laws. They sjs not negations.
They art not essentially "antls."' but are
"compelled lo fcome Into joppositio to
ert&la interests that seek to disobey the
plainly written will of the people of their
states upon certain subjects. Being. posi
tively for the people, and others being
against the people, "these two Governors
naturally meet negative action on the
part of those others. It Is the others that'
are "antt." Van Sent and MeBrlde are
"pro," or in other words, for something.
It seems likely that those pro-people
Governors .will .$rt?tht battle.' It-has
been impossible to break their hold upon
the people's confidence. ' Their gallant
fight has been Indorsed by the voters.
Van Sant was renominated by unanimous
vote of Minnesota, Republicans. Gover
nor McBride probably. Will be renominated
by the Republicans of Washington.
DEFINITION OF TRUSTS.
The literature of the day is filled with
discussions of trusts and remedies there
for. It remained for United States Sen
ator Nelson of Minnesota to' state suc
cinctly the whole problem and its solu
tion in one brief sentence
Complete consolidation, whatever its
purposes may be, becomes nevertheless
in Its essence a monopoly, and a com
plete monopoly necessarily Involves ab
solutism, and this Is repulsive to the
great body of the people, and Is dreaded
by them, In the realm of traffic no less
than in the political world.
The theory of all government is that
the governing power shall be absolute, in
so far as relates to the rights of all the
people, and hence anything that attains
absolutism in, say, transportation in a
given country or large region, -has at
tained that which is subversive of the
very essential of government; it has ar
rogated to itself the absolutism that be
longs by right of government
Beneath the specious arguments of the
Hills and Harrlmans, who plead the ad
vantages of "harmony of interest," lies
the fallacy which Senator Nelson has
pointed out. It is the absolutism of the
railroad trust that endangera the rights
of the people. Undoubtedly, there be ad
vantages in the reduction of friction and
the elimination ot unnecessary expense of
operation. and administration. Yet there
is greater room for harm than good
of the proposed trust, unless it be that
there be government control of some
sort. What sort, is the problem just now
worrying Wise people.
A VALUABLE PUBLIC SERVANT.
E. F. Pernot, State Bacteriologist, sta
tioned at the Agricultural College at
Corvallls, has gone to Washington, D. C,
to- study during the months that are
granted him as a vaoatlon period. He
proposes to solve some problems that
have vexeu growers of sheep and goats.
Diseases that -have infected the herds
of these domestic animals have baf
fled the most experienced owners. Reme
dies have been of little value. The bac
reria that caused the diseases have con
tinued their ravages and losses have
been . heavy.
Professor Pernot proposes to discover
remedies, If possible, and therefore de
votes the weeks of vacation to study and
experimentation In the laboratories of
the National Capital City. Professor
Pernot has been one publlo servant who
has warranted 1ils employment. He has
become an authority UDOn many sub-
lects. and will increase the weight of
his authority by extensive investigation.
! The Filipino mother this year learned
what it means to have s boy burn his
fingers with firecrackers, but she does
not yet know the worrlment of having
the youngster burn boles in his clothes,
for. so we are reliably informed, the
Filipino lads don't wear many garments.
The ladies of the "Portland Rose So
clety deserve and. have thanka for their
assistance in decorating the stage of the
Marquam for the celebration. It was
feature of the event, and incidentally ac
celerated the movement for the culture
of roses In this city.
The present weatner officials could not
be elected to office" "were they to go to
the people. The sort of weather they
dished up for a Fourth of July parade and
jollification shows the quality of their
Judgment It's execrable.
Cuba helped us celebrate this year, in
a manner to indicate tnat pernaps sne
would like to have Senator Elkins' resolu
tion become a realized fact, and perhaps
Senator Elkins is not far from right, af
ter all.
'The Salem officers probably are not
sorry that Tracy selected nis victims

Who Is the Senatorial candidate, any
way? Have the ruling powers not enough
generosity to take the people into their
confidence, or is it Impertinent for the
people to ask?
Portland's problem is not to find a suit
able site for the Lewis and Clark Fair,

OVER THE TEACUPS
The jealous woman is always unhappy.
If she hasn't any -particular reason oh
hand for this kind of worry, -she frets
for fear she will have a cause, sooner or
later. ..
The very best thing for her to do. If
she Is jealous of her husband, is to cure
herself of the habit of allowing this dom
inant emotion to materialise In words
and manner, ,, ,
Then there may be a hope that she can
make her husband fall in love with his
own wife, if he is estranged-lf he isn't,
she can consistently hope that she may
nip a possible cause in the bud.
No matter how serious a cause a wife,
has to be Jealous, she loses the game be
fore she begins it if she Violently retal
iates. ' ;v- -1
Alack! it has come to pass in Gotham
that certain city officials boldly declare
that It is now up to woman fo see that
the street vehicles and publlo plaees are
protected against certain carlessnesi and
lawlessness that conducts to general un
cleanllness. .,
These officials assert they have secured
legal law and penalty, and that the finish
ot the success depends upon the surveil- ,
lance of women and their prompt report
of all violations of the law.
The women themselves, apparently, ate
a good deal pleased over tne admission
that they are necessary to municipal law
and order in any degree and form. More-
over, they are not slow in asserting that
the "bill," its "approval, and , J'adop
tlon," were a good deal due to their ef
forts and influence. They are not iacceps
ing the "flnlsh" as their only part is, a
"cleaner condition" of Gotham.
Indeed, the women of New ..York are
conspicuous In most municipal improve
ments and reforms.
Just now they hold k more Important
position in this respect than the women
of Chicago. -
Church News and Views.
A Southern professor explains how so
ciety becomes corrupt: "First, there are
a few bad: second, by deception,, by hy
pocrisy and meanness they persuade the
weak to. join them; third, the mean and
weak made a large show of numbers and
the virtuous remain inactive and allow
the vicious crowd to rule."
The Christian Advocate is not satisfied
that these three dlylslolns the mean, the
weak and the Virtuous exhaust all, ahd
suggests that if the professor., Will re
verse the matter and enow how, when
this state has been brought about, the
virtuous can be made active,' and how,
being made aetive, they fcan divorce the
weak from the mean,, and having done
that, how they can ostracise the mean
and keep them ostracised, the everlasting
problem of perpetuating' good socltty. It
says, will be settled,
