CIRCULATION (SWORN) OVER 4000
INTERESTING AND CORRECT.
The postoffice,; which was establish
ed long before the existence of great
corporations and trusts awoke any 'de
sire for public ownership of public con
veniences,' Is the jonIjrIlving example
of what the Government can doIn the
way of serving the nation. Is the pos
tal service as near perfection as a pri
vate corporation could bring ft? It is
doubtful whether any firm' or corpora
tion would -tolerate half the" Incompe
tence exhibited by the employes of
Uncle Bam in the various departments
of the postofflce. ; 'Cases. -can be cited

Some months ago 'the Statestrian ex
tressed something like 4.he -above sen
timent, whereupon the' National organ
of the Socialists, printed Injtbej.wlndy
state of, Kanaas. jumped oh to us wKh
both feet.' cat If d ui all kinds of hard
names and accused us of being tied up
to the trusts,' etc. - -The Statesman at
that time hadex pressed Itself In-favor
Of Indlrldua ownership and operation
of all property t and against commun
Ity, state or Oovrrnmeht ownership or
operation. 2The" "Statesman believes
that that government governs best
which governs least.- It believes In the
Indlvlduah the unit. . It is opposed to
Socialism , in every form. It "believes
In larger ogpoitunltiesi for Individuals,
and constantly ? larger - opportunities;
and greater equality of .opportunity.
This will make every citizen a.n Inde
pendent Tunlt of tke Ckjverhmerrt. This
Is the strongest and best kind of jOov
ernment on earth, made up Of educated
an property holding and home; loving
and patriotic Individuals, each, with a

THE MANHUNT.
Underwood, the alleged chlldslarer.
was located and captured by bis camp-r
nre. Convinced that, the fugitive was
fKmrwhere wlthfn a certain area. Sher
iff Cudlhee climbed a tall mountain
which commanded a broad expanse of
forest and tideland, -and - scanned the
country-with his field glaases.' Soon
he detected a telltale wisp of blue
smoke rising from the dark forest.
This was surrounded by hfs 'posse, and
the capture of " tbe unarmed and ex
hausted youth was comparatively easy,
says the Spokane Spokesman-Review
editorially. '
' But tbe fugitive Oregon convicts are
too cunning to offer (his advantage to
their pursuers. S They have found it
safer to raid Isolated farmhouses and
cook their captured, fogd on the ranch
ers' stoves. At one place they remain
led long enough to i prepare several
pounds of bacon, sufficient foodi'under
preesure to serve them for days.
There is a limit, though, to the sue
cess of thetsefdaring tactics. Even "in
mid-summer, the) nights in the deep,
damp forest of Western Oregon and
Washington . will chill one to the mar
row. Underwood complained that he
could not keep- warm at night,; even
when sleeping "by a campflre, iand It Is
- , ; . . ' 1r . ..
certain that the Oregon coiivlcts have
suffered from cold and are yielding to
the long strain of excitement and hard
ship. This fact counts, In favor of the
pursuing posse, whose members are di
vided into relief parties;
On the other hand, the convicts have
the distinct advantage of the almost
perfect cover afforded by the dense j
woods In which they have! been hid
ing. One who has not crutsed through
these Western forest can have slight
conception of ' their jungle nature. In
places the bottom lands' are
an almost
Impenetrable -tangle bf vine

der, salal bushes, thimble berry bushes
and "devil's walking sticky I Concealed J
In such a covert, the desperadoes, with
their proved skill as "marksmen, could
kill a doxen men before they could Tv
taken." ' H
Tim an easy matter, - from pleasant
fireside or comfortable offlcel to declare
that the posse ought to walk in and
capture the thugs without farther non-
nse; but undisciplined men are ehtry
about charging Into a hidden battery
of that character, partlcularly'when m-
great principle Is involved. (Host, men
would behave, under like circumstanc
es- substantially as the posse has be
haved.:. ' - ' ; 7'7'j i.'.'7.::
THE JAPANESE SILK; FRAUDS.
-(American Economist, June 20.)
In August of last year the United
States) Appraiser at the port- of Nfw
Torlc reported to Collector Bldwelt
certain frauds of a startling nature In
connection with the importation of
Japanese silks. The public press has
given a greoit deal of attention to these I haire contributed to the1 Improved con
cases, especially In view of .)ie extent dttion DUt mainly two things. One
of the frauds . complained of end In
view of the action of the Government
officials who have had to do with these
cases. . lEvery branch of the customs
service, -. excepting the United" States
Appraiser' at New Tork.1 ruled I that
there 'was no cause ' of action, but- In
January . of this year President Roose
velt directed the appointment of dep
uty assistant iattorney-s;eneral to re,
view tbe action of all departments In
connection-with these case The for
mal report of sfr.W. Wlcksham Smith,
acting as deputy- assistant attorney
geheral, has not yet been filed with the
Attorney-General, but his Investiga
tions resuKed in the arrest on criminal
charges of two members of the firm
of A. S. Rosenthal Co. last week,
which Indicates that the rulings of the
Treasury Department and Its subordin
ate divisions under Ex-Secretary Gage
were decidedly. erroneous.; 7 7?
.The American Economist Is just as
much interested in gtad administration
as In good laws, and- ws find In. these
cases an aaministrauve lesson wnicn i

The following elements enter Into
this case:
7 First. -Violation of our tariff lawa '
Secohd. ; Loss f revenue. "7
' Third. Collusion of customs officials.
Fourth. Honest competition by hon
est Importers destroyed. ".7
The administration can lay its hand
upon every official who failed to do his
t
duty, and in the -courts. the Importers
will have their hearing'. If customs of-
CciaJs will go so far as they have in
these cases to defend those who were
defrauding the revenue, it la time for
the administration o summarily

mora every official who is proved by
the record to have been, identified
with these cases.
Former -Appraiser Wakeman makes
the following' statement for publica
tion: -
I wish to congratulate the admin
istration and every one identified with
the recent development In connection
i wlth the Japanese silk frauds. - This
Investigation was inaugurated by me In
August. 101. The eases, are now In
such shape, -througn the searching and
exhaustive investigation of W; Wick

Attorney-General, that they will have
proper attention, but naturally I turn
to ihose. Government officials who were
responsible for failure In these cases

MUCH ENTERTAINMENT..
"Throughout the day numbers of
royal personages have been ' arriving
from the Continent. They were met
at the railroad stations by royal .car
riages and guards of honor, and were
escorted to the official residences as
signed to them. Consequently plenty
of entertainment was provided for the
crowds of sightseers filling the streets.
The above is an excerpt, from the
cablegram sent yesterday from London
telling of the opening of coronation
week, the festivities to be wound up on
Saturday.' "Plenty of entertainment
is good. All the people attending: the
festivities need to give-them "enter
tainmenf is a sight of royalty;: no
matter how undeserving of applause.
and not ' much matter of what color.
These goings-on over there are calcu
lated to make the averaare American
doe, not. believe 'a, royal
person Is any better than the average
man 'or woman, unless be or sne nas
proved himself to he better by the ex.
hi bit Ion of better manners, superior
intelligence, or extraordinary kindness
of heart . .But K will take a long time
for KngllsJimen and Europeans to get
over their notions' of the divinity that
hedges about a king or bf the superior
ity that a title confers. .
vThe Oregon Supreme Court is now
only about a year behind in Its work.
It has not been' long sthce the work was
behind two -years. Several things
of these Is the fact that the Justices
are provided with stenographers. The
decisions that were formerly; laborious
ly written out. by hand' are now dic
tated to the stenographers and by them
put. In typewritten form. The other
is the fact that thera is not as much
new litigation as there was a few years
ago. During the- ard ' times' from
1893 to 1897 there was a rush of appeal
cases, so much of a rush that the court
necessarily fell behind In its work, and
there -.was no relief until the Legisla
ture furnished the stenographers. It
Is predicted that wKhln a year or so
the court will be up with its: work, i
condition that has not existed for
long time, but one that will be especial
ly pleasing to the people : who have
business there. There Is not a harder
worked body of men in the state than
these three Justices of the. Supreme
Court. ..
