From n matoiml stutulnolnt, let us my once for nil, hU personal Indepen dence and freedom. Intelligence and contentment are absurdities if the soul or the individual is not free, if his actions us a man are subservi ent to external influences, If his movements, ambitions and desires are subjugated to tbo will of unother. It Is perhaps In our pecuniary nnd political relationships we are least free aud most slavish to control of others, aud most completely under the thraldom of prejudice. In these days of growth of personal equality few are dependent upon others for existence. The laws of society place no man beneath an other's heel, unless it bo thro1 tinan cial imprudence of the individual, or as a result of seeking or accepting political favor. Financially it i the Individual's llrst and highest duty to be solvent to owe no man nuy thing, if possible or in other words to enjoy the fruits only of his owu lubor. If he live within his income, bo it never so little, ho is independent. Live he beyond never so little he is a slave to exigency. The most frugal meal, tho barest room, the plainest or most patched garments that are paid for, are more becoming to tho royalty of true manhood aud womanhood than anything better that is obtained by iucurring dent. Debt fetters the soul, limits growth of individuality aud in the end unmans tho victim of the habit. Instead of a proud self-reliant human creature, we liave as a result an enfeebled, irresolute, trembling slave, whoso soul nor body can truly bo called his own. Tho lirst essential of true personal independence is freedom from the debtor's chains. Uo a mnn. Owe nothing but good-will to all. Debt not oidy enfeebles human eil'ort but leads to knavery and destitution, in tho cud. Talking with an old ware houseman the other day lie said: "I have run u grain warehouse twenty years and in all that time I never saw the time when the .bailor could not have his grain or his coin. In that time nearly eyery warehouse man In this valley has failed for not observing this simple rule." There Is a close kinship between debtrf, frauds and insolvencies. A linn re cently failed in this city because they hud too much standing out ou their books. Who should take the moral responsibility of tho assign ment? The met chant or those who owed him? Hurely the latter connived at his downfall. Thero is tho other great obstacle to freedom of thu individual growing out of this political conduct. Btraiige that In giving others tho blessing of a free government, he should achieve serfdom! That in securing tho rest of mankind political liberty, he should be chained to partisan preju duce! That tho result of universal sullrago should result In individual disfranchifcenient! That equal rights for all at tho polls should bring about nullification ol tho rights of duo! Yet, this Is to a certain ex tent true as a result of our political machinery. Is it not u fact? Is it not the highest duty of the patriot not to allow himself to bo labeled in udviuiceby the managers of party muchlnery, his vote tablctted on n memorandum placed Id tho huudi of the party henchman, aud on election day a prepared ticket is given him and ho is voted by the machine along with other dumb political chattels, whose ballots are coutited before they aio cost? Hhould not (ho ballot of an Intelligent man be directed by his own Clod-given Intelligence rather than by the dic tates of a political machine? It will 1)0 said this n an argument for disloyalty to purty? Far from It. It Is an argument In fuvor of high est loyalty to party, und tho party that allows the Individual greatest Individual freedom will secure the loyulfy of tho grottiest nuiiilKtr of In telligent voters. Next to owing no man pecuniarily It Is euch ihuii'h highest duty to achieve his jwlitlcul freedom, Tho thinking nnd reading mun needs not the nolfco of trumpet or tho roar of a stump speaker to set him right. JJe needs not to udvertlso ids opinions and preference. JIls silent ballot carrier his Uml thought for the wel- fure and heullnir of the utati'. It oount oh much, aye ten-fold more, If east as the firm resolution of an upright manhood, unknown to the ItulMund Uara of the most politic, where the iiionoy-ehungeni of otriw M-ekltig iinwt do congregate. Lt It bo cmphHsJztHl a llioiiiand llrnt-t", (hat the iioblevement of per. mjimiI Independent, mating ujkiii porfWt freedom from jweunlury anil polltUwl rwdrulut I tho only Inblg- Ola of un honorable manhood, HKCOONITlO.V OF (INK MAN l'OWIilt IN OKEOON. It is imagined by some that boss ism is on tho wane and that with popular political institutions, the t'wstir nnd Napoleon become impos sible. Tho autocrat is however not of tho retiring order. Tho political bos-j Is still lu his glory In somo states of tho Union. In Oregon ho has achieved singular triumphs, nnd received his apotheosis nt tho bauds of representatives of tho people. One-man power is in tho nsceudaut. Twice bus bosslstn been enthroned the past week lu tho Orcgou legisla ture. The stnk has exerted its power lu politics at m 11 times. The cloven foot has often exerted a greater force tlianinoral principle. Tho mighty propinquity of seltlshuers has dis pensed fuvoii to Its favorites until tho heavenly ideals of democracy havo wept aud hidden nwny in shame. Mr Joseph Simon, who was repu diated at tho primaries and polls of Multnomah county nt tho Into elec tions, has been virtually placed in charge of one branch of legisla tion for tho people It was by n most cowardly aud abject surrender of their franchises, by supposed rep resentatives of political power ro slding in thu people, that a boss repudiated in his owtl couuty was suldled upon the stntc. Does uny ouo pretend that Mr. Joseph Simon is popular with tho people of this state ? Is it imagined that his political nssocin lions and influences would servo as an orillamino of victory with tho voters of Oregon? No ono believes these things. It is mockery of n people's government that n dictator ship, which is always repudiated by free votertmt tho earliest opportu nity, should bo placed in charge of their legislation. In the democratic camp the situa tion is not inoro llatterlug for tho people, ('lean-handed and honet hearted democrats were passed by nnd Ignored In the democratic joint convention caucus aud the patty honors in this state placed upon thu brow of an Irresponsible and un merited boss. It was lu many senses an empty compliment, that "Har ney'" Goldsmith should liavo been voted for us democratic catididute for United States senator. What became for tho moment of nil their boasted- lovo of tho farmer nnd laboring mun, that they should thus lay their trophies at tho feet of u Portland boss? Those ure lino things to put lu tho democratic- platforms, to catch farm er and lubor votes with. With such platforms, even, they cannot get votes unless they back up their pre tensions by nominating men of the people, llko Governor l'onnoyer, Hobt. A. Miller, Judge liouham und others in whom tho people havo con fidence, lint those men and the plutf'or"! they stooil ou are strungley forgotten, when the metropolitan boss demands tho recognition of one mau power und n feather of glory In his cap, to control federal patronage with at tho hands of some future democratic administration. thu Hi:rimt.t(jAN nouyi; oauous l'OIt OI'HN IllVKitH. Tho first house Itopubllcan caucus was held for tho purpose of uniting the party on u plan eouceriiing tho proposed legislation for opening tho Columbia river, und removing obstructions to river navigation. The house caucus agreed to havo all such propositions referred to the committee on Federal Relations. 1 1 is a noteworthy fuel that the party was moved to hold its first caucus on tho subject of free aud open rivers. It remains to bo seen whether this party action will achieve any piac tlcul results. It Is one thing to con sider. It Is unother to do something. Legislatures do more of tho former Uiun of the latter. The iron grip of the corporations tipouOregnn Is such that they will not allow these rivers to be opened without n great strug gle. Any propositions that look to preventing the railroads from taking millions out of the pockets of the producers und putting them Into their ovvu,uro apt to meet with stern opposition In a senate that has made the receiver of one corporation Its president and placed Its committee ou railroads in charge of tho receiver of another. Jteceiversof wrecked rail roads are not to be blamed for resist ing measures that will muke their business of dealing lu bankrupt cor porations less profitable. The oliuiicos are that the action of the house is attaching so much luixr tance to open rivers will be regarded as redieuloiM by Mr. Joseph Irongrlp Klmon und the other corporation receivers and attorneys in the senate. If they consider the attltudo of tho house for open rivers ut all serious, It will only bo to repudiate Its expres sions. The greatest obstruction to oihiii rivers In the treacherous desertion, by alleged representatives of the people lu the state and national legislatures, and pandering to the political tools of the corporations. That Is an ob struction that the people themselves must remove by developing a greater sense of roionlblllly to their wishes. Hut the situation Js not confined to Oregon. livery few months the telegraph tells of a new sleel nrmored cruiser being putnilont nt a cost of from ono to tlirco millions. Tho American nnvv is being rehnb illtnted at a cost of from tento twenty millions a year. Bills are before tho uetinto of the United States, nnd actively pushed by rienntor Dolph of Oregon, for au expenditure of 50, 000,000 for coast defenses. All this Is being carried on whtlo tho peoplo of great sections of Oregon nnd Washington are loft with their crops to rot on their hands, while tho only railroads that could help them are being crippled to help tho grain spec ulators or usHltoenrlch speculations of Portland laudshnrks. While tho pooplo are kept from freedom of markets and natural rights to uso of riverain transporting produce, as In no other country in tho world, theso corporations are wrecked and plun dered and put In the hands of re ceivers to bo Airtller gutted. All this is douo in tho nnmo of law. Tho government not only expends its millions for navies and war-defences and neglecta Its rivers, but it allows tho corporations which should servo tho peoplo to bo used by indi viduals for individual ends. So far is i government of tho people dls torted from Its origlnnl purpose, that not only aro tho public transporta tion companies not frco to bo used by tho peoplo, hut they aro used against them. Tho peoplo will any nt every coming election, "to Hades with such legislation nnd tho mon who propose It." FKOM GI1EHAWA. Dr. Farley of Ohemawa, has been up to Baleni.
