I' n fair to Cake.
The Oregon Daily Journal, w' lob
boasts of being a (air aud bigb-claes
Journal, is beginning a ciuHad of
misrepresentation against II. M. Cake,
Republican caudilate for tbe United
States senate.
The Journal prints something every
day about the alleged disruption of
Mr. Cake's forces, tbe revolt of tbe
Fulton people from tbe Cuke camp
tbe alleged weakening of Mr. Ciike on
Statwment No. 1 and other absolutely
unfounded matters In Mr. Cake's
campaign.
in view of the fact ttmt Mr. Cake
has made a olean, fair and honet.t
campaign, standing upon principle
entirely and leaving mud slinging and
partisan prejudice and bitterness out
of the game, the action ol the Journal
is KiirprlHlug Mr. Cako denervei4 fair
treatment ut tbe bands of the Jour
Dal, although be may be a Ropuhll
cau. He has won a creditable tight
before the people of Oivgon Bud Ihe
Journal ia not makng any votes for
Cloveruor Chamberlain by printing
faixe statements concerning Mr. Cake.
There Is no sign anywhere in Oro
gou that tbe Fulton people are going
to assist in tbe election of (lovernor
Chamberlaiu wbo went out of bis
way to engage with Uenev in the tight
on Ssnatir Fulton. Mi. Cake has
not wavered In his advooaoy of State
meat No. 1, and he will not waver
lie made tbe tight on that principle
and won one of tbe most noteworthy
victories lu the political hitttory of
tbs state, defeating oue ot the very
strongest men in his party in tbe sen
atorial race.
Mr. Cake ia a strong, (ore! bio, hnn
eat, olean oandidate, a Hist-olaes citi
zen, public-spirited, active, aleit and
high-minded, aud will be au honor to
Uregon in tbe United States senate,
And beiug a Republloau will be In
position to take au active part in 'he
alfairs or govemtne"t, iuatead of be

Any Old Rate Will Do.
All over the country tbe cry is for
a reduction in railroad rates from a
three to a two cent a mile basis. The
railroad companies say that they
laii't do It and stay in tbe busiueKc,
aud they may be right. In vetoing
tba two-cent lilt in New lork Mover
noi Hughes held that he would be an
injustioe to the roada to pass such a
bill without Drat making careful and
oompeteut investigation of the rate
question. If Mr. llairltnau will lint
shore a liue out to Komil we'll gladly
pay four cenU a mile, as they no on
the Condon btanob, and theu think
that we are being pretty well treated.
If we oan't get lower tates uud new
rsilroads too give us the latter every
time. It isn't tb price we care so
muob about out bere In the Interior;
it's the roada. Fossil Journal.

THE VARSITY LETTER.
Te the College Man It Is as a Flag te
a Nation.
Whnt a flag is to n nation a varsity
letter Is to n college mnn. I.Ike it ban
ner, a varsity letter Is clustered nround
with comedies nud tragedies, witb
yearnings and heartburnings. The
"II" of Ilnrvnrd, tho "Y" of Ynlc, the
T" of Trinceton nnd the varsity let
ters of the various other colleges nnd
universities have meanings to college
men which never occur to others. And
there are strict rules and condition
surrounding the letters.
Every Harvard nthleto who wins aa
"II" sweiitr nuiet obey the un written
rule of taJ wwtiTwlry-W rnrte tttMeti
anys siiecfljr that no "II" sweater
must not be displayed saw on tho fiold
of nction. Even In such appropriate
places It ought not to make Its appear
ance with excessive frequency. On or.
dinRry occasions good tasto at Har
vard Inspires a varsity nthleto to wear
n class or prep school sweater. At
Yale a "Y" mnn, If he bo a modest
fellow generally, niny appear even In
Chapel street in his "Y" sweater, but
that sort of thing at Cambridge Is ab
solutely prohibited.
It Is generally thought that the man
who would display his "II" In the
streets or in the "yard" Is tho sort of
man who wishes people to know that
ho has done something. Therefore, the
argument runs, he Is tho sort of mnn
who should fool the force of the gen
eral contempt.
There are four kinds of "II" sweat
era which may bo worn on the field of
notion. In baseball nnd track nth
lctlcs a solid crimson swenter Is tbe
reward of superior excellence a black
"II" for the baseball and a white "II"
for tho track. The varsity football
sweater at Cambridge Is black, with a
smnll crimson "II." Tho crew sweater
Is solid white, with a crimson "H."
Of lato yenrs the custom has grown
up of giving some sort of "II" recog'
nltlon to the varsity men In the minor
sports.
In basket ball the nthletic powers
thnt be confer a crlmsou swenter, with
a whito "II" which contains between
Its uprights two small "It's."
The varsity tennis men get a white
sweater with a red "II," in the lines
of which arts small "T's."
The hockey men, who are strongly In
touch with the football team, earn nn
"tl. T." Mack sweater.
The day has gono by when a superb
athlete can reap a collection of all the
"II's," for tlie faculty now restricts an
athlete's participation to two major
sports. In the nineties it was possible
for n mnn to earn an "H" in football,
rowing, basebnll nnd track, Boston
Herald.
Thackeray as a Dinar.
Many worthy ami somo notable per
sons have possessed the onlou habit
now nnd again. William Makepeace
Thackeray, writing of himself In "I.ov
ell the Widower," says, "It Is notori
ous to nil my friends there Is a cer
tain dish 1 cannot resist." lie referred
to stewed tripe and onions, as a proof
of which it Is narrated of him thnt on
one occasion while on his wny to dine
with the Marquis of Westminster his
eye caught sight of a placard In the
window of n London restaurant liear
Ing tho legend, "Tripe and onions to
night" Going in, he called for the
dish and writing materials and wrote
off as an exenso to his would tie host
that be bad unexpectedly met an old
friend that Insisted upon detaining
him. ThixfcsrsT's fumiHe edfbles
raw oj-Btui! anH olmx, and It may be
recalled tsnt he told Mr. Field, tbo
Boston author, who acted ns agent In
his lecture tour In this country, that
his chief purpose in coining to Amer
ica was to obtain somo of the famous
large oysters of this land which he
had beard grew to fabulous size In
stead of tho little coppery things of
England. At this first dinner of Bos
ton, therefore, a plate of large "Provl-
donee rivers" was set liefore him as
an appetizer. He partook of one with
a surprised look. Being asked how he
felt, he replied: "Profoundly grateful.
I. feel, as. If I had swallowed a bnby."
