With groat interest the public daily reads tho accounts
of the utterances and acts of our strenuous ex-president,
who, returning from his triumph over the beasts of dark
est Africa, has floated down the Nile to Khartoum and
Cairo.
In the shadow of the pyramids of the Pharaohs Teddy
has disturbed the silence of the Sphinx, by declaiming in
thunderous tones of the ingratitude of the Egyptians and
the incapacity of their English rulers.
The world is wondering what will be his next act. In
England his utterances were received with astonishment.
In Egypt his hotel was mobbed by nearly a thousand stu
dents.' His journey home has barely commenced. Prom
Egypt he will invade Europe, and well may monarchs
praise and consider the advent of this American Colossus.
The first to be attacked will be Italy. Doubtless there
the query is: Will he call on the pope or address the Meth
odises? It is safe to say he will do both call on the pope
first and address the Methodists afterwards, avoiding
Fairbanks' mistake of permitting the address to be an
nounced before he calls on his holiness.
After Italy, Prance, where doubtless he will advise
them how to deal with Morocco. Next Germany, where
he will lampoon the socialists and proclaim the kaiser
the greatest of rulers. From there to .England, where he
will perhaps settle the question of home rule for Ireland
and determine the future of the house of lords.
With bated breath millions will await his return across
the Atlantic, impatient at Iris dallying in Europe while
momentous questions at home await his decision. Till he
comes we must wait in doubt. Por who can know till
he comes whether Hughes or Root shall be boss in New
York? Whether Cook is a fakir or did Peary really find
the pole? Whether Ballinger is a frost or is Pinchot a
martyr? Who will whip, Jeffies or Johnson? Is the
comet really dangerous, or is tuere one at all? What is
imitation whiskv and what is the real stuff ? Are the in
surgants fools or brave men? Is the tariff revised up or1

But, in all seriousness does the following that this one
man has, without disrespect to him, show that this grea
country of ours is lacking in one .product namely, grea
and able men ? We boast or our extent of country, our mar
velous wealth, created in a few years, but our great lead
ers of public thought, whose ambition it should be to mould
the public mind and guide it aright along the broad, way of
enlightened justice, truth and liberty where are they?
Roosevelt is coming home. May he return wiser than
when he departed, and may his energy and effort inspire
to eriort those, it there be such among- us, who arc wiser
bolder and more just than he.

Tho practice at the ball grounds
yesterday afternoon was no prao
tico at all, for the very valid reason
that tho players fiu.od to show up,
If tho ball team imagines for n
minute that it will satisfy the faua
by playing a practice game every
Sunday, which is about what the
league will amount to without some
weekday work, they are going to lose
out. A number of citizens have
agreed to put up money to aid the
team, and havo a right to expect
something for the money. One game
a week with morely a httlo throwing
about of the bull between times isu't
going to fill tho bill.
Pennants are not won that way.
Portland went 15 rounds to a
draw 2 and 2, with San Francisco
yesterday. The game was called in
tho 15th on account of darknoss.
Thnt was sure some baseball.

PRESS CENSORSHIP.
Attorney General Crawford has given an opinion hold
ing that the purity of election law prohibits newspapers in
f -.. ti" xj. r i.i x ii.
vrcguii uujii puuusumg any iuaner xavoraDie 10 me claims
or any candidate for otiice, or m the interest of any meas
ure to be voted upon, without its being marked plainly as
an advertisement, containing the name and address of the
yjarty responsible for it.
Ill several respects the law is unconstitutional, though
whether the acrobatic supreme court would so decide is
problematical. Its record of decisions, holding appropria
tions designed to benefit certain sections of the state con
stitutional, and appropriations to be expended in other
sections unconstitutional, construing the constitution
broadlv. sanctioning its fragrant violation to enlarge its
own membership and increase its own salaries, and con
struing it narrowly to thwart the development of Oregon
and cater to the mossback vote, leaves no clue to guess how
the cat would jump on this issue.
!' The editor of a paper is responsible for its utterances
and the right of free speech makes him amenable only to
the libel laws. It is rank paternalism for the state to at
tempt to dictate the policy of the paper and assume the
right of consership, to forbid his advocating men and meas
ures without a label, and most newspapers that are worth
while will continue in the future, as in the past, to advo
cate that which in their judgment is best for party or for
people.
K The Tacoma Tnoune sizes up me appie situation as
follows: "That 'Oregon' apples should take first rank in
tho world's markets, while Washington fruit, even the
fabled 'red apple of Wenatckee,' does not command the
absolutely highest fancy price, is explained, perhaps, by
just one fact; Oregon apple growers have not been entire
ly willing to sacrifice the old-time luscious favorites to the
newer, larger and redder varieties that look so brave on a
fruit stand. A Spitzenbcrg may not look quite as large
or as deep a red as a Wolf River and a Newtown pippin
or Seek-no-Further or Missouri Pearmain is not as brilliant
as some others that attract moro attention of the unini
tiated; but Oregon apples, among the initiated, have been
found to be tho real thing."
