CORRlPTIONiSTS ARE BORROWED In declaring "corruption in gov ernment the surest breeder of social ism," the Minneapolis Tribune hns probably made a correct statement of facts, as applied to those persons "whose mental operations are eccen tric," Hut, when this paper classes the initiative and referednuui, with other recent achievements of Oregon people, of which we are so justly proud, as the fruits of erratic mental crocesses, he shoots wild. l!y means of the initiative the people of this state have receutly enacted a number of strong, just, conservative laws for the taxing of franchises, and to oblige corporations generally to bear a just proportion of the burdens of government which they could not get enacted by a representative body, though they had for years, begged their legislature to thus mane taxa- ( tion equal. iue people or uregon are not trying any "political nostrum as this paper says, "to free themselves from government as it is," but, fail ing to get equal justice administered by the old forms of government, have, in a perfectly dispassionate, though determined spirit, resumed so much of the powers granted the legislative branch of their government as was necessary for them to establish jus tice, to be exercised when in their be lief it may become necessary, moral of this is be good and you be praised and upheld. When a very popular tiovernor sought to use the referendum for political gain, the peo ple spanked him good and hard for his folly, at the same time re-electing him to his high position. In their departure from old methods of legisaltion the people of Oregon have shown an admirable temper, and have themselves, made laws, not dras tic, but such exactly as have proven efficient and satisfactory iu the most i conservative, progressive states. Through our primary election law we have taken from the bosses the power to dictate candidates for office, and have lately directed the legislature to elect citizens to the U. S. Senate, having pledged each member of that j body in the most solemn manner to I do our bidding ; and thus we shall not be left only partially represented in j the Senate fid WO II c ve been in the I past, and shall cot suffer from the ' consequences of a shameful dead-lock ! as this and other states have suffered ! in the r.a.-t. Representative government when it does well w ill be support ,-d iu Oregon. When it does evil the people will en force corrective measures. Oregon Las not "tried singular ex periments with the extreme ideas of prohibition." No attempt has been made at any thing in this way but to give the people power by local option to suppress the liquor traffic in any given unit of territory where there exists such a public sentiment as will enable them to do so. Our local op-j tion law may need a little trimming, i If experience shall prove this, the ! people will make such change as time may prove to be beneficial. The prin- ciple of local option is not likely to be abandoned. It is, in fact, the old principle of local control, enforced in a new way. The minds of the people j are open to enlightenment on this ! subject. That the Federal Court pre sided over by the lamented Judge Deady in a way peculiarly applied to Oregon as a state, "revealed the seed of socialism" every citizen of Oregon will resent. The Federal Grand Jury fit. Wirt it iwl rl iftttr.r..l -iirit. ..! t : promptly indicted the offenders. Trial juries with equal promptness convicted them, w ithout revealing any mental state peculiar to Oregon peo ple, nor any thing peculiarly Oregon ian except sterling Oregonian virtue. Many citizens of other states have been found connected with these crim es, some of them from the state of Minnesota. These culprits from the middle West have been millionaires, who no doubf inspired these crimes, and supplied the money necessary to their perpetrations, Including tho corruption of public officials. Many citizens of Minnesota Lave taken land in this district, swearing that it was taken for the use and benefit of the entry-man ; not directly or indirectly for the benefit of anoth er person. Yet, so soon as this land was passed to patent, the title was passed to millionaire Minnesota tim bermen, all of which shows that the "seeds of socialism revealed" by ttnnsnctlous In public land in Oregon were certainly not peculiar to Oregon, but that they were brought largely from other communities, largely from the one in which this editor live. These crimes are not found alone in Oregon, but, in other state. Oregon citie need not blush at a comparison of morals, as exemplified in method of municipal government. The memory of Lincoln StetTens'reve lation of public dolmuehery in Phila delphia and other cities, none of which were in Oregon, still lingers. We don't believe that Minneapolis may throw stone at any Oregon city. The Tribune , however, does the state justice in one respect. It ntllrnis that the" average standard of public inti'llli-i'iiee is mm haps t tie highest on the Rncillo C ast." which fact l.iiUl,l,,,,",hl' seem to rentier the "fails ami vagar ies" of which he speaks impossible here, and as a matter of fact they are not here in any alarming degree. No other people have adopted more intel- ligent methods of reform. Those who! would adopt revolutionary measures; were so emphatically rebuked squelch- ! cd that they excite only pity for . their felly now. The only influenced promoter i f revolutionary doctrine iu our recent j political campaign was a certain fe-j mule 1 Victor whoso home is not in 1 Oregon, and w ho, on her departure natt lost nil me ouyam spirits which she entered the State having no encouragement ever to return to the state. The Oregonian, known everywhere as able, courageous, and conservative iu an exhaustive reiow of motives inspiring the actions of voters in the late election, and the re sults finds no cause of complaint so grievous to that girut paper as the aot tmt the ,H.opie uot vote their rrty ticket A strong and growiug sentiment exists iu the State of Washington in favor of a lcoal option law for that state simiksr to our own statute on that subject. If the fanatics will keep out, and let the people of prac tical minds conduct the campaikru of education, Wasihugtou will doubtless lie able to get a good law that all will Ve willing to have enforced. Nothing Tne I is more reasonable than that a coin will ! should have the right to vot upon that question by secret ballot and. if one favors the business in his lucal community, he should not be obliged to express his belief by signing a pe tition to be published to the world. The secret ballot is the only assurance of perfect freedom of action ou any question of public interest. This mat ter of enabling the people to pass up on the question by secret ballot is the) chit,t ail(1 we believe only merit, of! any local option law. An able commission, at the head of which is Fredrick W. Mulkey, the i people's choice for United States Sen ator for the short term, has been eu- gaged for a year in collecting iufor-1 mation and preparing a new statute' foi the taxation of property in Ore-1 gon, expects to have its labors com- : pleted and a bill for the new law com- J pleted and ready for filing with the; (Jovernor by the Lst of July to be by ! him transmitted to the legislature iu j ! January. It is believed that the bill, i if it becomes a law, will greatly im- j j prove the state revenues, and lead to j ; a much more equal distribution of; : the burdens of taxation. ' j Morgan, the venerable Senator from I Ala., speaks bitterly against the con ' solidation of territories upon their ad i mittauce as states now, and of the , division of Oakotah as a crime. The I Democrats everywhere, are distin guishing themselves by opposing: the I good they really favor, for no other reason than that Republicans are ac- complishiug it. The people will cer- i tainly appreciate achieved results more than promises never fulfilled, j The fact that States have been erected ! with insufficient resources cannot be a reason for the creation of others. Congress is becoming weary and a date for adjournment is receiving its quota of attention from members of both branches. The earliest possible date is Lelieted to be June 2.'J, and the latest date any member will listen to is July j. There remains but few important matters which have any chance for hearing. They are the rate conference and the meat inspection Kill. These two offer about tho only obstacle to early adjournment, now that the statehood bill is out of tho way. One of the prominent features of the bill proposed by tho State tax com missioner is that it will compel the assessment of property at its true value. If it does this, we believe it will lead to good results. Rut, if it fails to be of sufficient strength to cause this certainly to be done every where in the state, then it is not good. At last Edward J. Addix is over thrown as a candidate for U. S. Sena tor in Maryland, to the honor of that State and the satisfaction of every American who careB for purity in public life. The bill prepared by our State tax commissioner propose to make Coun ty Treasurer, collector of taxes In Mead of Sheillf. We doubt the wis dom of this very much. The bill pro pose to reduce the exemption from fcUXMo f'JiH', and demonstrate how that, a farmer owning exactly the amount ami kind of property exempt ed by our present statute may have the full exempt ion while another having property valued at the same would have only ?'.. exempt. ; The editor who hopes to live to "see ; the secret ballot obsolete and voters 1 signing their names to their ballots," 'Is evidently afraid to die, ami has 'adopted this ruse as an excuse for in directly becgiug to lic forever. The secret ballot will never be on the contrary, every i ;,.. ... .....i;. ., .. ill I,., I "' t . " n II. ..... to make it impossible for the voter to make known how he otes.

Chamberlain, The whole case. An enormous amount of land has been bought from the state and practical- paid for. but leaving a balance due the state on which the annual in terest is almost nothing, by which j means they have escaped taxes on j such lands for many years, the At- torney lienend holding that such: lands were not taxable while the title remains iu the state. The bills recom-' mended by the state commisioner will make such land taxable. A good ' thing certainly. The country awaits the Until action i in Congress on the raihoad rate bill 1 j with almost breathless anxiety. The I enactment of a reasonable law for the ! correction (if abuses by the transpor tation companies, and its faithful en forcement, will be the greatest victory for the people against greed since the; establishment of the government. 1 Those who, in the Senate oppose the conferrence compromise on the state hood bill, find little or no objection to it other than that it may increase the Republican majority in Congress. The count rv has not grown great uu-1 der the leadership of statesmen ot this character. Beanth, f lha Hind You Have Aim Borf Signature Notice.
