PORTLAND, ORE.. JULY 19, 1802
rr- JOHN MITCHELL'S 8TAND.
The great heart of the American peo
ple pulsate in sympathy with the an
thracite oal miners In Pennsylvania. The
common people era with the mem and
millions more than majority hope that
they will iwln. in the remarkable flght
against the allied forces that seek to op-
. press them, . -
(Too, the AJcarlaaa geople Indorse John
Mitchell when he titters so wise things
;;e:: these;
. Bympethetio strlkea have many adher
ents, and the efficacy of such methods
appeal strongly to those who, being thor
oughly Involved In trouble, do not always
realise the result ot their action upon the
public mind, but the labor movement
teaehas lessons which should not be lof
gotten today. As far as my knowledge
gees, I do not know of one solitary ayra
pathetlo strike ot any magnitude which
has been successful. On the contrary, the
most conspicuous among the sympathetlo
labor, struggles have resulted In lgno
mlnlous and crushing defeat, not only
tor the branch of Industry originally in
volved, bat also for the divisions partici
pating through sympathy, In my Judg
menu the United Mlneworkers should not
repeat the mistakes, which, like mile
stones, mark the path trod by the toil
ing masses la their never-ceasing strug
gle for better and higher civilisation.
I am firm in my conviction that the
Strike in the anthracite fields can be won
without repudiating our solemn contracts
with the bituminous operators, provided
the bituminous minors will rise to the
occasion and do their full duty by their
struggling fellow-workers.
Mr. Mltohell stands upon high ground.
yet ground not so high, as to make htm an
impractical theorist He believes that
there is weakness In the sympathetic
strike, for the reason that It involves the
abrogation' of. agreements between em
ployer and union, at times, and that
labor may win favor and worst its op
pressors only when it supports those
great principles that must underlie all
stable society. The sacredness of a con
tract, the inviolability of a promise
these, think President Mitchell, must
never be Infringed upon.
President Mitchell's statement fully
bears but the position that The Journal
hah taken.
John Mitchell is' the greatest leader of
labor who has ever come before the peo
ple. He has combined Justice with eg
' gresslon, fairness with vigor, courage
with Indomitable purpose. He has held
the support of the people, and that means
, Jb the end to triumph.
MAKINQ ISSUES.
' X bright 'Washington correspondent
suds the news that Democrats are try
ing to make an issue of the friar affair in
. the Philippines. It 1 likely that the
. Democrats are not trying to make an ls
: sue for these reasons: Issues are not
wanting already, and then, Issues are
not made to order; they make them-
if Perhaps the recent campaign in Ore
gon may serve to Illustrate the point,
mi ..ui. ........ -. i,
an Issue, In favor of W. Furnish, by
claiming that his defeat would operate to
the discrediting of the etate In the East,
, and that the Republicans must vote for
Furnish In order to avoid 'saying to the
people of the East that Oregon was a
"scuttle" state.
. There waa furious attempt to "make"
. that . issue. And there was ignominious
.failure.
. Indeed, Issues do make themselves, and
they come to the front in spite of the
politicians. At time they may be de
layed. ' But, in the due course of time,
. the people take them up and settle them
according to their own Ideas.
It isn't likely that all of the wisdom Is
wrapped up in the Republican leaders
f Washington,' and hence it la likely
that the Democratic leaders know this
simple truth that ha been herein set
.forth,- ?f-J(
: BUYING FRIARS'. LAND8.
, The proposition. to buy the lands held
14 the Philippines by1 ihe-friars is not
unlike that of ' Lincoln to . purchase
from the slaveowners their human chat
tela. . 4n& like that of Lincoln, It is
1 consistent "with right, and with good
policy. It la common sense Applied ac
cording to the arguments Of expediency.
1 There will be a disposition to adversely
criticise the plan, as outlined in Secre
tary Root's letter, but most seneibl peo
ple will nee that In no other manner
could the question be solved of correct
ing the abuses that grew up under' the
Spanish regime.
There was technically, on the moral
consideration, a weak point in Lincoln's
slave-purchasing proposal, 'and the mem
bers of tho Cabinet, lacking his far-seeing
vision, stood for the abstract prin
ciple rather than effect a compromise
that woald avoid so much blood-shed-dlng
and prevent the onus of the fault
of a race from falling only upon the
people of one locality.
The friars have arrogated to themselves
civil powers that are inconsistent with
the American Idea of absolute separation
of church and state. It is desirable, In
deed, that such a situation be radically
altered, and In so doing It Is wise to
effect the change with as little of fric
tion as possible. Even though the friars
tenure ot lands in the Islands" is based
upon a principle repugnant to our Ideas,
it is the part ot statesmanship to ad'
Just matters upon the theory, of a rea
so liable compromise, rather than to stand
arbitrarily for the ousting ot the friars
without compensation. .
Better conditions will obtain after the
friars have left the Philippines, and
churchmen . representing- tendencies of
Roman Catholicism take their places.
The new-comfng priests will work along
lines agreeable to the American concep
tion of the relationship that ought, to
exist between government and civil af
fairs, and all religious organisations.
FOR BETTER BRIDGE. EACILITIE8
The suggestion of W. D. Fenton, in
the debate over the site for ' the Lewis
and Clark Fair, regarding the hrldge fa
cilities Of Portland, was one of the most
timely utterances that has been made for
many a day. His idea is that present
bridge accommodations are Inadequate to
the handling of traffic across the Willa
mette River, and that If the Fair were
to go -to the East 8ide It might hasten
the work of providing amply for that in
creasing travel that is sure to occur, and
that already has taxed the bridges to
their utmost
At this time, with 100,000 people, Port
land has not sufficient of bridge accom
modatlons. With the Increase in popula
tion and business that will come during
the coming two or three years, the exist'
Ing bridges Will be absolutely Incapable
of carrying the people and vehicles. The
East Bide is sure to become a great real'
dene district. Of this, no one who ob
serves the trend will have a doubt
Borne day, perhaps at once, there must
be bridges that have tracks for street
cars separate from those over which ve
hicles pass. The celerity of travel in
Portland demands such provision.
This especially applies to Morrison
street bridge, upon which frequently traf
fic is congested, and, good service by the
street car companies is impossible. It
would be well for the public to keep
this in mind, that complaints against the
surface roads often should be directed
at the bridge facilities.
Certainly Mr. Fenton's suggestion Is
such as to commend Itself to the thought
ful consideration of all who believe that
parsimony is not economy, and that the
expanding of a great city must not be
hampered by refusing' the means whereby
it may expand.
TAXING A FRANCHISE.
Umatilla County grants a franchise for
an electrioo line across the county, as a
part of the Pendleton-Dayton road, and
Imposes only a possible maximum of $35
taxation per annum per mile. It will oc
cur to the average person that this was
peculiar action, Indeed, to provide for
the taxing of a franchise for a fixed num
ber of dollars, Instead ot naming a per
centage of gross receipts, as has been
quite commonly done where franchise
taxation has obtained; or, at least, tax
ing the road according to the valuation
as the years pass. The 133 annual tax
per mile will be little more than the
usual taxation of. $1000 of property, and
yet, if the road operate, it must become
worth much more per mile than that.
If the road does not become profitable.
there would be justice in levying light
taxes upon it, for the fact that under
proper management no profits accrue, Is
in Itself proof that the privilege carried
by the franchise is not valuable. But,
all contingencies may be provided agalnBt
upon the taste of fairness to the corpora
tlon and the people whose property the
company asks to use, by imposing a per
centage tax upon the gross Income.
The issue is not local to ' Umatilla
County. It is applicable to every town
and city in the country, where the taxing-
of Jranohlses certainly should be
come the rule.
UTILIZE COUNCIL CREST.
One of the spots to which visitors to
Portland should invariably be taken la
Council Crest Boms one who lives there
about has called it Falrmount, but Coun
cil. Crest IS the' proper name, and' Coun-
trfl Crest it should be celled.
Council Crest Is the highest point con.
tlguous to this city, being 1600 feet abor
the' level of the business'' dlstriot "and
affording a view toward all directions of
the compass. It is reached Jn a min
ute walk from the beginning of the Port.
land Heights boulevard, which makes off
from the cable line .one block this side
from the end thereof. ,
The view from Council Crest ,1s mag'
niflcent It is beyond description. It
sweeps an empire that lies between
Mount Jefferson and Mount Rainier, $00
miles In extent Only by ascending one
of the snow-cappf d peaks may on obtain
such a view. The latter Is not possible
for the Immense majority of people
Thousands of Portlanders never have
been upon Council Crest Thousands
could not direct a visitor there. Tet no
American city has so wonderful oppor
tunity to Impress the guest with beauty
of landscape and majesty of mountain
peak.' Wide-traveled people assert that
Council Crest's panorama Is equalled no
where in the Alps, and that It Is .not
approached in grandeur In the Hlmllayas,
Five hundred dollars would construct a
good board walk up a gradual climb to
the top of Council Crest. ' And the ex
penditure of I10 other $500 would ae
complish so much to add to Portland's
attractiveness. It is an opportunity .that
should be embraced.
There would ba no other feature for
visitors during the lewis and Clark Fair
that would compare with Council Crest.
It would be the comment of the world.

diet between sensationalism and the con

question ss to whether plain facta shall
be stated, or whether modest? shall

As a matter of faot,. there are potent
arguments upon each side. It cannot be
denied that conditions exist down In
Portland's Whitechapel district that call
for strenuous language and action. Such
conditions exist in every city In the
world. They constitute the ever-present

In Portland there be things that ought

the people generally only through the
medium of the dally press.
In this age of commercialism, the brain
that makes money receives the most com?
pensatlon. The study must give way to
th counting room, the scholar to the
business man. Professor E. F. Pernot,
state bacteriologist and of the faculty at
the Oregon Agricultural College, an au
thority and a distinguished scientist, Is
to receive $1600 per annum hereafter. He
had been receiving $1220. Imagine a man
of Professor Pernot's culture and learning
paid about what a good head bookkeeper
receives, with all due deference to the
bookkeeper! It Is fine encouragemnt to
cultivate the mind and perfect oneself in
the higher branches of learning. Profes

the beginning of the ending of the regime
ot bureauracy that came to light during
the Ute Sampson-Schley controversy.
Secretary Moody will do well If he cleans
off the barnacles from the hull of the

Our Best Bicycle Riders.
With the racing season thoroughly I1J7
augurated it "Is beginning to be possible
to get some sort of a "line" on the men.
Floyd McFarland, the versatile, even aft
er seven years of racing, is showing more
speed than ever,' but it is doubtful it he
can be good enough to down the leaders
in either sprint or 'paced' racing. Hurley
and Kramer, amateur ' and professional,
are each unquestionably the-' Champions
tn short races. The game never before
has seen two such sure and steady win
ners; not even the great Zimmerman so
much outclassed his competitors as do
both of these boys. In paced racing Har
ry Elkes and Albert Champion are show
ing the best form. Champion's ride of
a week ago at Manhattan Beach satisfied
the Metropolitan public that he a top
notcher, even If the record breaking he
has done this season, . was evidence
enough. "Tommy Hall is promising, but
seems to be poorly served with pace, as
Is also Bennie Munroe. The last named
is for his weight and Inches the most
muscular lad tn the gams and with grit
he 'should develop into a great rider.
Eddie Bald, who found enough of his
old speed to beat Johnny Fisher, is prov
ing to be a surprise as a "has been"
champion. He cannot get to the top
again, but is riding well enough to travel
in th best company. Lester Wilson, who
won his initial paced race, has returned
to sprint races. George Schreiber seems
to have made a mistake in being profes
sionalized. - His greatest speed was shown
on the board track in Madison Bquare
Garden. Kramer leads in the amount of
winnings by sprinters and Walthour Is
the biggest winner among the pace fol
lowers. Walter Fenn Is soon to marry a
Georgia girl. ' '. ' '
