week. The first number was published
on March?, 1851... ; '
Ashort historical sketch of the paper
will appear In the Daily, tomorrow. ' "
The business, of the Statesman office
has seen Its greatest growth in the past
two and a half years. It is about Jour
times as large In volume as It , was two
and, a half .year, ago, , Tbie growth
continue and promises to go on In
definitely, t.
The mechanical department of the
paper wfes never before as complete as
It is now. Important changes and Im
provements have been made lately and
are under way that will add very ma
terially to It efficiency. Evidence of
this will soon show themselves in the
paper, and upon this foundation im
provements in the ,new .service w.Hl
be undertaken and carried steadily for

a half yer has been largely In what
may be termed outside publications.

for it (which rate are now being ad

A NOTABLE AGREEMENT.
Last year there was a strike of the
Amalgamated Association of. Iron And
Steel ! Workers, : directed against . the
United State Steel Company.' After a
perl&l of. Idleness for the men of the
association, the strike was ended on
September 14th last, upon term which
were practically a defeat for the strik
ers. The atrlke waa an Offensive in
stead of a defensive move, and It failed.
The . association learned a lesson
thereby. It wa made to realise that
In such question there ar alwaya two
ides. . And 'the result of this educa
tional procesis seen In the agreement
reached on March 5th. In New York,
between the Association and the Amer
. lean Tlnplate company. The wage seal
In- the tlnplate'. mills "of the; company
expires on July 1st of this ysar. By
the agreement just made, the same
scale of wages is made continuous un
til July 1. '1903. Should any .difference
at-lse, the matter will be discussed at
a. conference between representatives
of the employers and employes. .
PresKlent Shaffer, of the Amalgamat
ed association, exnresses the satisfac
tion of the men. with thl agreement in
the following comment:-"The; magni
tude of the deal may not.be realised;
but It i the greatest that has ever
been effected with capital in the history
of the working people." .
-itu statement shows that.Mr. Shaf-
and Friday by tbe
:."',.
Ing In advance, will have the benefit of
the dollar rate. But M they do not pay
for six months, the rata will be $L23 a
vaf. Hereafter w will send the na
per to all responsible persons wbo or-
der it. though they may not. snd the
money, with the understanding; that
they are to pay $L25 a year, in. case
they let the subscription account run
over six months. In order that there
may be-no misunderstanding, we will
keep this notice standing at this place
in the paper.
fei baa gotten beyond the' first crude
Idea of the labor organization that an
advance 1n wage is to be fought for
at any time those organizations may
see fit to demand it, irrespective of the
conditions. He has learned that there
are two side to the problem. The one
is, the entirely natural- desire of the
worker to get. the highest wages possi
ble. The other is, of course,, the finan
ces of the employers. A demand for
increased compensation 1n a given line
of labor means an increase In the fixed
charge of all employe of ail that par
ticular class of labor. This must either
reduce the profits, or there mu0t.be an
increase ' in the price of '. the articles
which are the product of ttoatx labor.
The latter may be impracticable; the
former may reduce profit, to nothing,
or eveivcause a balance on the wrong
side of the ledcer.
The greatest value, of .this agreement
lies in the fact that ' It establishes a
precedent. As the Chicago i Post pats
the case, "it shows other employes and
combinations of employes how they
may avoid Industrial wars.' It- opens
another peaceful avenue for rthe settle
ment of all labor trouble. And it is in
full harmony' with the trend' of the
times, and the enlightened opinion of
the best friends of both labor and; cap
ital." . -,: ..
A STRONG TICKET
, The Republican crtate convention can
not name a stronger ticket than the
present state officials. V No better or
abler man ever sat in the - Supreme
Bench of. the'state than R. S. Bean, of
Lane county. No one will; dispute this
assertion. No one can suggest a single
reamn why he should hot be re-elected.
Governor deer bias, without a doubt,
discharged! his duties as chief executive
of the state in a manner that ha met
the. approval of the people of the en
tire state, and he would have no op
posh on except for a lot of aggrieved
politicians, " i Every- consideration of
policy and politic demand hi renom
inatlon, which mean hi re-election by
an enormous majority. ,
Secretary of State Dunbar ha been
very efficient In performing his offlcia,!
duties. He has won the praise of all
by his scrupulous regard for the inter
est of the taxpayer, and- hi failure
of rertomlnation would be a most un
fortunate thing for the atate.
, Treasurer ' Moore ha made a eplen
dld official. No one ever heard a word
of criticism of hi management of his
department. Ills service should be
recognised" by re nomination.
Superintendent Ackerman haa proba
bly done more for the schools of Ore
gon than ha been the opportunity of
anyx other man to perform. . Ie has
devoted his ( whole time and hi beat
energy to the uplifting of educational
work in Oregon, and his Influence ha
been felt to the remotest district. The
failure to renominate him would be a
sore dlstt-ppointment to every teacher
in the state, as well a the patron of
the schools who have felt the Impetus
he has given to school work in this
state. His fidelity to his dutie de
serves the reward of a renomination.
The retention of these men in office
wouTd be the most, conduc!ve measure
toward harmony (that It would be pos
sible to bring forth at this time. A
satisfactory reason cannot be. offered
why any of 1 these men should be de
feated in the next convention. Of
course, other tneri want the places, but
this Is not a good reason. 'It will be a
serious mistake t the present list of
State officials is not. renominated
throughout. i
IT MUST BE TRUE.
When a man sends a communication
to. a newspaper he should be sure he
ha something to say that 1 true, and
falling in that, should not complain if
It doe not appear. The statement that
Governor Geer ha appointed an agent
"to secure base land in the Klamath
Indian 'Reservation' I absolutely and
Intentionally false, as any one . mutt
know who read the paper. If any
land at all 1 cbUined fn the Klamath
Agency Reservation it wt:i be swamp
land pure and simple. The effort Is
very properly being made by the state
to seucre this land. If it. had been ne
glected these same street corner critic
would now be howling that the Govern
r waa neglecting a great opportunity
to replenish the school fund by an
amount equalling about flOO.OOO. ButJ
ijaur the preliminary steps have bt-en
taken, and it may be year before the
claim Is allowed, therefore the -statement
that any man can now' be selling
information about these lands in the I
Reservation is notoriously impossible,
and therefore ; so nntme that It only
add one to the other reason- why the
"complainant"' with his little law book
under bis arm was unable In the late
skirmish to touch either bottom, or
side In his effort to -carry his own pre
cinct against' the Governor.' .
BUSHEY'S NIGHTMARE.
Mr. Bushey:ba figured out that if
the lieu land, which are now selling
for 12. W an acre, are really, worth 10
an (acre, the date ha lost about $$P0,
000 by not selling them to the highest
bidder for the said sum of 110 per acre,
and that, therefore, Governor Geer Is
responsible for the said losa of MH,00
to the school fund.
Two fact well borne in mind by our
dyspeptic brother will snrely afford re
lief. Firat, when any article i old to
the highest bidder, no maximum price
can be assured. What the price may
reach is a matter to be determined by
the chance of the aale. Secondly,
whether the lieu lands shall be sold at
the minimum price of $2,50 or , to the
highest bidder 1 a matter for the Board
Of School Land Commissioner to decide
and the Governor ha no" more to say
about that matter than the Secretary
of State or .the State Treasurer.
Bushey knows thl perfectly well, and
that he' blame the Governor alone for
thl manner of selling lieu lands which
i strictly- according to law, and is sup
porting the other .two members of, the
Land Board, only prove the personal
nature of ; hi grievance and was evl
dently well understood in Mehama- on
primary day. The persistency with
which he pursue his nightmare only
serve to aggravate his hallucination
NOT EASILY UNDERSTOOD.
Bishop Potter said recently in a pub
lic address that In the course of twenty
years of railroad 'travel he had not
succeeded in acquiring a practical
knowledge of the men, who open and
shut -the far doors, and who are sup
posed to call out the names of the
street and the stations. The worthy
Bishop has a great, host of fellow suf
ferer who .a r sympathize with him
acutely. ! ! .

About one-fourth : of the Insurance
companies doing business In Louisiana,
Mississippi and Texas have withdrawn
from those states, and others are pre
paring to move, owing to recent state
laws increasing their taxes, forbidding
them to agree on fire-insurance rates.
and restricting their business: in other
way. A a result, merchants, sugar
planters and cotton grower in that re
gion are unable to get the insurance
they require on merchandise, sugar
houses and 'cotton gins, and complain
loudly. The merchants of Louisiana
and Mississippi are organizing to go
before their state Legislatures and ask
for the repeat: of the obnoxious "anti
trust" insurance law.? Country mem
ber of the Legislatures who favor the
aws are expected to fight the demand.
Wholesale and .indiscriminate law
against trusts are bound to work a
hardship until condition are adjusted
so as to dispense with many things
now furnished by trusts. No doubt
the trouble complained of In these
states 1 onty temporary and will soon
be removed. ' "
The prospect for stamping out: every
estlge of resistance to American au

than ever before, and it 1s confidently

amd plunder the peaceable natives and
probably -barrasa -the outpost of the
army, but these will be easily dispersed
or destroyed. The proxres of th

influence of schools and contact with

In theFlllplno mind. .

IK order to. attract settlers to the
Northwestern territories of Canada,
the Government has ' Introduced a
scheme of insurance of crops against
destruction by hall. By going to the
nearest postoffice and paying a prem
ium of ten cent an acre the farmer
gets l crop Insured against a loss
from hall to the amount of $4 per acre,
which he would, collect In case of loss
from this cause, t wou!d. however,
seem that such an advertisement of a
country would drive away settlers in
stead of being an Inducement for peo
ple tc go there to make homes. "
The results of Saturday's primatie
throughout the state were very favor
able to the renomination of Governor
Geer.. lie has behind him enough dele
gates to Insure beyond . a reasonable
doubt his nomination. Geer has made
a gtx-d Governor. The campaign waged
against him in several counties of the

be renominated and re-elected by

strongest support; and . his re-election j
will surely follow bis nomination."
