HUMANITY may politically be broadly divided into
two general classes, progressive and reactionary,
or, if yon will, radical and conservative. Under whatever
name political parties parade, in reality they are one or
the other, and political history of nations is the story of
tho struggles of these elements. The progressive is the
party of new ideas, of change and of advance. The reac
tionary is the party of stand-pattisin. of vested rights
and plutocracy.
All new parties voice the demands of the people for
change and all start existence as radicals. As the radical
of today is the conservative of tomorrow, so the radical
party at birth becomes the conservative with age. The
radical republican party of Jefferson became the conser
vative of Monroe, and the radical democratic party of
Jackson became the conservative of Buchanan. The radi
cal republican party of Lincoln's time became the conser
vative of MoKinlev.
Under Grover Cleveland, the democratic party was
conservative. Under Bryan it became radical, and the
conservatives joined the republicans. Under Parker it
again became conservative, and the radicals in it either
refused to go to the polls or voted for Roosevelt who
showed radical tendencies. Taft got the conservative
support of both parties, and through Roosevelt's influ
ence, the votes of the republican radicals.
The civil war created animosities and prejudices that
have since blinded the people to the real issues. The south
became sodildly democratic because the democratic party
was the white man's party uot for any other economic
problem involved. The north became republican through
the continued waving of the bloodv shirt. The large mass
of voters vote it straight blindly because of the prejudices
bora and bred in the bone, not because of the principles in
volved. This has left the independent vote, the vote that
thinks, holding the balance of power.
There are today both radical and conservative wings
in both parties and their differences are irreconcilable.
There is vastly more difference within the parties than
there is between them. Under present conditions, it would
puzzle anyone to define what constitutes a republican or
what constitutes a democrat. The definition of one would
answer for the other. If Cannon and Aldrich are repub
licans', then La Pollette and Omniums are not. If Harmon
is a democrat, Bryan is not. But Harmon and Cannon have
much more in common than La Follette and Aldrich.
It would be an excellent thing to drop the old party
names and adopt the morelioiiest English system of call
ing parties by what they stand for radicals and conser
vatives to get rid of the associations and prejudices that
blind the people and keep them hoodwinked and serve as
cloaks to promote their fleecing, in order to phice elections
ui)on the merits of the principles involved.

SOUTHERN OREGON has at last a chance to secure
representation in congress, through the candidacy
of B. F. Mulkey, who has well and honorably served the
public in various capacities.
Mr. Mulkey stands for the principle of direct legisla
tion. He is a believer in Statement One, that is, in the
popular election of senators. He represents the cause of
the progressive element in his party, the principles cham
pioned by Roosevelt, by Dolliver and others. He is anti
machine and anti-assembly, and has full faith in the wis
dom of the people.
Mr. Hawley, the present incumbent, is opposed to di
rect legislation. He is an enemy to Statement One. He
is the choice of the assembly, and a machine man from top
to bottom. He was one of Uncle Joe Cannon's most loyal
followers in congress and always voted to sustain him in
his un-American, czar-like rule.
Oregon's congressional delegation is very weak. It
should be strengthened, and Mr. Mulkey will strengthen
it.

THE USEFUL WIRELESS.
WASHINGTON, D. C. Aug. 2.
While Americans are wondering when
whoro and how tho postal Havings
system Is to be established tho un
tutored native may wave his pass
book nnd remark that In tho Philip
pines the postal savings hank Is an
old thing. Whether beads and clam
Bhells and braes rods aro rocolvod as
deposits Is uot mentioned, but tho
main fact Is thnt the wards In tho far
Pacific havo a privilege not yet ac
corded to their guardians.
Many Postal Hooks.
A rocont report received at tho
treasury department showo that thoro
aro In tho islands 2S0 postofflces at
which deposits aro recolved. There
wore 12,331 depositors and tho
amount of money they had placed In
the caro of the government was 1,
021,275 pesos or Philippine dollars,
worth 50 cents In United States mon
ey. Tho government In UHlng tho
money Is protected by tho guaran
tees of banks with which n part of
the postal funds havo been doposltod.
Investments have also boon mado by
tho government officials In chnrgo of
tho postal banks, In Manila city bonds
and railroad bonds and In first mort
gages. Among the depositors aro
3542 Americans, 7709 Filipinos, 398
Europeans and 201 Asiatics. Tho
rate of Interest on deposits is two
and a half per cent, but tho govern
ment reserves the right to change at
the rate at the end of any year.
System Works Well.
Tho system has worked satisfac
torily to all concerned. Tho Philip
pines wcro favored with postal banks
In advance of the states becnusu they
were not obliged to await action by
congress. When the president bo
camo convinced a few years ago that
postal savings would be a good thing
for tho Filipinos he ordered the sys
tem established, and It was done.
Congress postponed action for years
and it was uot until the closing hours
of the last session that a postal suv-,
ings law was passed.
Ijiw Very Popular.
The popularity of tho law has beon I Steel Work Up and Bin. Dance Hall

WASHINGTON, I). C Aug. 2. -With
a view to seeming information
ot exports and dependable facts for
recommendation to congress regard
ing necessary Improvements, Secre
tary llnlllngor of tho Interior depart
ment has arranged for an Inspection
of some of the national parks. Tho
men chosen for tho work aro elem
ent S. Uckor, chief clerk of the de
partment, and it. II. Marshall, cltlot
geographer of the geological survey.
In connection with their visit to
Glacier national park, u wonderland
of living glaciers and wild mountain
scenery reserved as a playground for
tho people at the recent session of
congress, a question arose as to tho
payment of their expenses. It seems
that congress appropriated $15,000
for the "Improvement of Glacier park
by the construction and repair of
roads and trails.
The question wub whother Uckor
and Marshall could uso a part of that
appropriation In securing a pack
train, guides, camp equipment, etc.,
and also In paying railroad faro and
Pullmnu and Incidentals, not to ex
ceed $C a day from Devil's Lake, N.
I)., to Glacier park.
Tho problem was referred to Comp
troller of tho Treasury Trncowoll,
whoso decision on tho expenditure of
government funds Is final. He an
swered that It Is an administrative
question. If, in carrying out the or
der of congress to "construct and
repair roads and trails" It Is neces
sary to first have nn Inspection, so
thnt the work may bo dono to tho
btst ndvantngo, then tho aforesaid
expenses of tho Inspectors can be paid
out of the 1 15,000 appropriation.

Over Kciitucr'ft
Mcdionl
TIIE arrest of Dr. Crippen, London's alleged wife mur
derer, furnishes a remarkable example of the effi
ciency of the Marconi wireless telegraph invention as ex
tending the reach of the arm of the law in tracing down
its refugees. The stupidity of the Scotland Yard detec
tives, so famous in dime novels for their astuteness in
ferreting out crime and apprehending criminals, might,
but for the wireless telegraph, have resulted in the escape
of. the crafty doctor.
This .comprehensive searching out of the ocean's dark
est cornel's by the electric flash of the Marconi has cut off
a hitherto inviting refuge to fleeing criminals and widens
the scope of tho usefulness of that remarkable invention
as well as offering a moral to the criminally inclined

People living in the vicinity of the

get the benefit of tiieir usual morn

dihtuibiiuce in the jail, storied pii
uiurily by one "Hurtwick," known t-

The sheriff was finally called and
diiickly subdued the incipient riot by
threatening to take a hand himself.
