AN ANACHRONISM.
LUMBER one, volume one, of "the Oregon Messenger,"
a "Democrat ie Weekly .Magazine," published by .James
1J3. Godfrey a'n'd iV. oSt,. Dairy niple is al baud. The salula-
tory announees that it is to be a political paper, and thai
the word "democratic" is used in its broadest sense. IT
this is to be the ease, if cap not be a partisan paper, since
true democracy which means rule by the people, is not
nionopouzeu oy any one party.
'Hie political parties all, or ostensibly, at least, profess
democracy, and their ditterence exists in as to the methods,
iu which this rule of the people shall be exercised.
Tho pronounced staiut-patters of both old parlies be
lieve that the people should rule through representatives
elected by them, but selected for them bv political bosses,
r:.i..i. i i !.
jiuiiiii'cu uv corporations, imiwariveu i, lrresponsioie
courts similarly appointed, in other words the people
should exercise their limited rule through the actual rulers,
an oligarchy, really a plutocracy bent upon special priv
ilege. The pronounced progressives of both republican and
democratic iiartie believe that the majority of tlio people
should name the representatives as well as elect them, that
iiiu juiwicgu oi recalling an outruns, incuming courts,
should; lie with the. people, that the people should act
directly upon laws desired, and that special privilege be
abolished.
Between the extreiiles are many partial believers in
the gospel of each, depending upon the antecedents, preiu-
.1t..nn ....! :l.- i i.t. .. :...i- .:.1 i n i .... . . .. . i
un.-t.-i5 itiut i-apjiciiv vl uic iiiinviuUHi, an degrees ol con
scrvatism and radicalism, and the two blended.
The socialists believe in
but they also are divided into
tactions, tlio one believing in
property, control exercised through the state, and the other
branch iii the direct, ownership by the producers, though
3 ust .how this rule of the people is to be exercised is some
what liazy.
Tlie socialists proper, believe in law and order as the
iundaiueutal necessity, since
pic nup cijuiuiuiy. xney oeneve tnai tne changes essential
must be accomplished by evolution and education and
tliroiigli the ballot. The 'syndicalists, on the other hand,
believe that a class war is a necessity and preach bloody
revolution as a necessity to secure the reign of brotherly
love.
. .The tvo oklparties.are survivals of political divisions
of the civil war period. Each
more in common with similar
witu. rival factions in their own party. Each name is use
ful in keeping the blind, unthinking voters in line for the
division of the spoils, which includes spoliation of the
people by special legislation as well as offices for the bdl
weathers. f
Che republican progressives, led by .Roosevelt, have
appropriated most of the principles of, the democratic pro-
gre'ssiygs led by Bryan. The two factions, except tor the
artificial distinction of namqs, lire together on all essen
tials. . vL'he, democratic conservatives led by Harmon and
Underwood, differ from the republican conservatives only
on the tariff, and both now advocate its reduction.
What call is there for a partisan democratic paper in
Oregon, where there is no democratic party? Those demo
crats that have been elected, were chosen simply because
the' stood for progressive ideas and their opponents for
conservative ideas. The overwhelming majority of each
party is progressive and the people are becoming too in
telligent to vote for any man or party because he weal's a
label that really meant something half a century ago, but
means, pnly a surviving prejudice toda-.
There must be a realignment upon a different basis,
;iud the party name must symbolize a vital issue, as it did
in its infancy, before there will be a field for the partisan
republican or democratic organ. They are anachronisms.
PUBIilC MARKET A SUCCESS.
TilE public market is proving a great success. It is
doing all that was claimed for it and materially lessen
ing the cost of living to the consumer as well as enabling
the producer to dispose ot his surplus.
Although in operation only a week, the market has
proven the fallacy oi the grocers claim that a steady sup
ply of good produce could not be obtained locally.
It has shown the folly
Qalitoruia to purchase vegetables that can be and are
raised iii abundance at home.
'The market is destined in the near. future to become
the busiest place in Med ford, and of immense value to the
community and adjacent territory.
Do what you can to make it a success. A visit there
pays you well whether yon go to buy or sell.
