Troubles of an obstinate Law breaker. ’ Up in Corvallis lives Mike Kline, who if he had devoted his energies as persis tently to some legitimate business as he has to trying to run a saloon in that town contrary to law, probably would have been an honorably wealthy man. Three times he has been convicted, in connection with one or more others, of selling liquor contrary to law. for Cor vallis and Benton county yoted for pro hibition last year. At first Kline thought he could openly defy and beat the law, but failed and was fined. Then he and others started a saloon under the thin cloak of an “athletic club”—convicted and fined again. He persisted in anoth er attempt with like result. His fines in the first two cases amount to over $1,000, besides 20 days’ imprisonment ; and what his attorney’s fees have amounted to only he and they know. He may appeal, at large additional ex pense, and with small chance of success, for higher courts have held the local option law constitutional. In view of these facts the 'Corvallis Times asks : “Has Mike Kline no friends whocati induce him to give tip this fool scheme on which he is bent ? With $1,000 in tines, and more to come, and with 20 days and more for him to serve in iail, all without a single ray of hope in the higher courts, will none of his friends point out to him his position, and advise him to close up his shebang that the people, the courts, the laws and three juries [have declared shall not run ? These fines will have to be paid. These sentences have to he served, The juries are not a jest, the courts not a hoax, the laws of the land are not a joke.” Folly takes many forms, and one of them is obstinacy. Men have ruined themselves financially hv law suits over a calf or something else not worth $10 Mike Kline’s folly seems to be of this type. But his persistency and obstinacy in wrong doing mav be of some benefit to others. The public will get some money out of him, if he has it, and other men will restrain themselves from trying to break the laws, no matter what laws. In a good, lawful occupation Mike ought to succeed. He should switch.— Journal. Reciprocity Absurdities. The talk of reciprocity with Canada strikes a hopeless obstructed whenever the fact is taken up that the Dominion admits British imports at a reduction of one-third in customs duties. This advantage is a mark of loyalty to the empire, and is more likely to be increas ed than reduced. To drop it would an nounce to the world that Canada no longer intended to treat the “mother country” with this special proof of kin ship and administrative favor, Realiz- ing that they are in no position to dis cuss reciprocity with the United States without reserving the right to admit British goods at a lower rate than any other, the Canadians have grown in different on the subject, aqd are at work on a tariff revision that will be, in their opinion, a more profitable harrier against a growth of trade with this country, conceived to be too rapid. If Canadian estimates of what their tariff commission proposes to do are correct, the preferential rate on British imports will be so readjusted that some articles will be admitted at 75 per cent reduction in duties, while in no case will the preference be less than 10 per cent. The rateswill be fixed to suit British and 'Canadian supposed interests, and no other nation will get them. Canada «an offer no reciprocity without this limitation. New England sees the point. Massachusetts is not likely again on the same day to give 82,000 plurality to a Republican President and 35,000 plural ity to a Democratic governor like Doug las whose battlecrv was reciprocity with Canada. Douglas must have seen a light when he declined a renomination. At all events, the votes of Massachusetts showed last November that they saw the folly of running after a vague issue that breaks down every time its defina tion is attempted —Globe Democrat. Cannot Do Business. Governor Chamberlain has issued a proclamation dissolving a large number of corporations that have not paid the incorporation tax license for two years. No doubt a large proportion of the com panies have gone out of business. In re- gard to the companies formed in Tilla mook, or those interested in this county, we find quite a few which went to the wall without accomplishing anything, particularly is this the case with the railroad companies which failed because there was nothing but “hot air” behind them.

The election of such a man would do a great deal for the people of Oregon, It would mean a man at the head of our state who would represent the best and cleanest tendencies of our common wealth. As a farmer he has been a success, owning and operating an unencumbered farm in Washington county, which in sures him a living for life, whether he gets an office or not.
