Last Sunday's Oregonian, in a short ljut lucid editorial, under the above caption calls attention to the follow Ilia facts: Senator Chamberlain and Senator Lane were elected to the UnitPd ttes Senate, at different times, through the ovrethrow of parly and the paralysis of party ties. Tbey atked the people of Orenon to rise above party considerations, and ths neop'.e responded. Ihere was a re volt asainst the party machine: the spirit of the voters was against party domination; the intent was to rebuke and destroy the party caucus. Both Senator Chambfilain and Senator Lane profiled by the pcpnlar discontent with party, and exDressly pledged themselves to all the people as against party. Yet what strange things we see Senator Chamberlain wants a fif teen per cent tlotv on wool, but yields to the Democratic caucus and agrees to support free wool. Senator Lane is indifferent. S.nator Crambertlain and Senator Lane resist successfully the effort to put jute baas on the free list, though jutn cannot be profitably raised in the United Statps and the manufacture of jute bags is necligible But the farmers of the Pacific Northwets use 30,000,000 jute bags annually. The Democratic caucus again. Yet Senator Chamberlain and Sena tor Lnna threaten to bolt t he caucus if the importation of bird olumage and skins is not prohibited ; and the caucus consents. What a demonstration of the cower of the to Oregou Senators for tbe Tjenifit of the bird ! What a costly tailute to use the same power for the Oreogn producer, particularly : the Oretrnn farmer ' Also, to the followine recent proceed in;s in the U. S. senate showing why the duty on grain bags was retained Senators Chambetlain and Lane today Tnined other Democrats of the Sanate in voting down Senator Jones' amend ment to the Underwood bill niacins jate grain bajs on the tree list. When "this amendment was offered re cently it was referred to the finance committee and for a time there aD-prart-d to tie prospect it wonld be reported fuvor-bly, but tha Bemis Bag Company of Boston, and the Ames Baa Oompanv, of Por land, floodei the committee with protests saying the amendment would ruin their business and on this showing the committee r fused to scept tha amendment. Senator Lane personally was favor able to the amendment, but under his .iuctis pledge was compelled to vote against his convictions. Senator Chamberlain has been apnarently hos tile to the amerdment from the first, and has received leleeratrs and letters from Mr. Amep, ureing him to oppose the amendment. He at one time Boueht to have the amendment with drawn, but Senator Jones insisted on having a record vote. This amend ront, had it carried would have effected a savins of thousnds of dollars to the Northwestern grain and potato growers, especially tiiosn who export their produce, and it was on this theory that Senator Jones urged the amendment. He proposed the same amendment to the Payne-Aldrich bill. Five "Progressive" Republicans, Cummins. Nonis, Kenyon La Follette and Bristow, joined with the Demo crats toJay in defeating two amend ments by Senator Jonea placing a fotv on shinnies, which are free in the U'derwo-'d bill. His first amend ment nror.oed a duty of 40 cents. 10 cents lets than the Fayne-Aldrich Tut, and th's was voted down. The S nate then voted down an amendment placing a duty cf 23 cents on shineles. Senator Jones contended that plac ing shingles on the free list would w ik great damage to the shinale in l i'try in his state, because of Cana dian uomoetilnn. If the much vaunted "Oregon S stem" is very far superior to (he old style politics in securing an un trammeled expression of opinion, and equal justice for all it still remains j to he demonstrated. So far it has been euccessfull in putting out one j set cf demagogies only to install a vor.-e outfit in their pl;. That's about how it looks "to a man up a tree." 1 You'll be surprised when you drive into town on the morning of the 25th, and see the prenaration that has been made for a sure-euough Fair, When yon 89e the stables and pens provided for the care of the stock, ycur animals and poultry, when yo tako a squint at the navillion and see the tables and stalls Inaded with incomparable pro ductions of forest, field and farm you wili just begin to live in a real way. Your head will he higher, your vision clearer, yonr joints suppler, yoqr chest will take on several inches ad ditional girth, and yoa will just turn round and pat yourself on the bars because you helped to make this prop osition go. The movement to utilize pnblic school houses for the benefit cf the public when not in use for school purposes, is making headway fas', and it is well. lo convert these buildings into social centers is a wise plan, and in the country it will do much to les?on the dnll mouetony which is the great bane of rural life. Whore school buildings aro used as social centers the results are vory satisfactory It creates a neighbor hood sentiment, brings families into clo3er touch with each other, and adds greatly to ones knowledge of farm matters of all kinds. Mi ' sV' , vr Now, don't foget that the Morrow County Fair will take olace on the 25th, 26th. and 27th of this present month, of September, and that it is yonr duty as well as unspeakable privilege to attend.

SILAS CHRISTOFFERSON WORLD'S FAMOUS AVIATOR in Acts of Magic, and Punch and Judy Shows Very few uarents, caiuparitively . folly consider the true design and real importance of the school life of tbeii children Most of them appear to think that they have fully discharged their duties concerning the education of thair children when they have placed thom in school.
