Morality la a matter of conduct
more thtiu of professions. It con
slsts of actions la everyday life
much more than of pretensions to a
superior grade of moral theory or
belief. If a man posscssos any mor
ality, virtue or sobriety, he should
use his possessions to beuoflt society
as much as possible. Ho may be ne
at himself some, but he will not
beuellt his fellowmau lu tho least if
he allows his moral qualities to cause
him to play the hypocrite and Phar
isee. If ho draws his garments of
alleged superiority about him and
proceeds to judge aud condemn
every other person who does not
measure up to his own elovatcd
standard, he simply takes himself
out of all reach of sympathy with
those to whom his example aud lu
llueuco should be of tho greatest
yalue. He moves himself apart
from all erring mortals, and point
ing the linger of fault at their
short-comings continues to hoist
himself in his own esteem, by seek
ing to degrade them in the eyes of
the world. Each one he can put
down a notch seems to elevate him
self just that much, and bo keeps
this up until he imagines himself to
bo one of the elect, a little deity of
his own creation and circling around
u throne built In his owu imagina
tion. This process goes on until the
person is despised by tho wholo com
munity, and finally winds up with
turning out to bo as great a hypo
crite and fraud as any that ho con
demned, and often much greater.
It Is the influence of pharlseeism to
undermine and destroy what littlo
moral stamina tho pretender may
have had. The most hypontical
and phurisalcal moralists havo been
found to be rank and rotteu as
lepers at bottom, when their deeds
have finally coino to light. Many
of this species, like tho cuttlefish,
darken the element iu which they
move, to cover their owu whereabouts.
Nono whatever. If tho writer or
speaker of such cant is not seeking
to bo ne (It tlioso whom he imagines
aro not as good as he, what Is ho try
ing to get at? Scores of men go to
saloons who are just a? useful citi
zens as such an editor, tho' they
may not be setting as good an ex
amplo in this respect as ho. The
editor does not refuse to associate
with them, to soil them his paper,
nor to take their money, So long as
tho saloon and liquor busluesslslegal
Ized aud has a legitimate existence,
all men who drink aro not to bo
swept out of decent society by the
mere wavoof afanatlo'a band, tho
ho does print a newspaper. Tt is
not tho way things aro done out
west. Give every man a chance.
No young man can afford as a mat
ter of dollars and cents or as a mat
ter of character to go to tho Baloous
very much. If ho thinks to take a
wife aud prepare himself for the
duties of family life there is no safe
rule but total abstinence, and no one
can blame any voung woman for
insisting upou it. But the way to
get young meu to quit the saloons
is not by trampling upon them and
seeking to degrade them Iu tho eyes
of the world. There aro fow young
meu with so little spirit and mind
of their own as to bo won In this
way. Tho process is ,a failure. It
is tho force of the pharisee that la
sought to be oserted. It Is not tho
forco of kiuduesa aud love.
station. Ho will receivo tho Presi
dent iu n proper manner along with
tho other state ofilccra at Salem and
ho will not say a word that will
give the President or his party an
unfavorable impression of himself or
of theBtato llo represents.

When this kind of a iierson takes
unto tbo nowspapor business lor a
livelihood hla Held of operations Is
for tho time, being enlarged. Ills
oporatioiiB aro extended. The Iwy
cott of the pharlseo Is swelled to Co
Jeremiads of the community con
eor. Woe unto the Imperfectlous of
the raco! Thoy shall appear In
print with a personal application lu
every possiblo case. Tho man who
swears Is treated to volleys of bird-
shot at profanity, as tho' a few littlo '
adverbs and adjectives In typo were
a specific for tho habits of a lite
time. Tho man who ever says damn
Is set down as vllo and low In cold
print. The editor Is too cowardly
to mention his name or refuso his
subscription even If he should band
It in with a round oath at the head
of the critic; so ho must genorallzo
and reflect upon the the character
of all guilty of this vlco In tho least,
tho' most of them may bo lesa of tho
hypocrite and narrow-minded hum
bug than the editor. A glaring ex
ample of this style of a newspaper
moralist comes to our table each
week. It Is a kind of cross between a
local newspaper und u patent medl
clue advertising gazette. Here is a
sample of tho specious moralizing
that Is sandwiched in between about
every other local Item:
Young rnnn who frequent saloons
thus reuder themselves unworthy of
the society of young ladles who havo
any tastes or ambitions abovo tno
coarsest aud commonest things of
life. Girls, do you want grogshop
bummers for husbands?
In the first place every young
man wuo visits a saioou is uoi u
grogshop bummer aud what aro we
to think of tho charity of a man who
indiscriminately classifies all as
such? Buch ranting never yet
saved a young man from tho evils of
drink. Youiik women do not
draw tho lino at the saloon habit
unless they havo been educated so
to do. If boys and girls aro taught
at home, and by tho oxamplo of tho
wholo neighborhood, Hint It Is dis
reputable to ho wn tn a saloon they
will grow up so to WIIovo atul tnai
bellofwill follow them alt through
their lives. That Is the way tern
prance men and women aro mado
aud not by newspaper rant.
It is sickening to read this rot
that lias no good effect on anyone
and only disgusts those whom it Is
Intended to help. With all such
moralizing, we would like to know
how much better tho towu where
this paper Is printed is by this kind
of wark? How many e saloons
aro in It, and how many young
men dtt-Ul from visiting the saloons
on account of tbeo Items? What
good dot It do V) tell a young
woman who Is going with a young
man who visits saloons (hat she has
uo tastes or ambitions abovo the
coarsest aud commonest things of
life, and that she evidently wants a
grogshop bummer for a husband?
OOVEHNOH AND rilESIUENT.
An eilbrt has been made to place
tho Governor of Oregon in an attl
tude of hostility toward President
Hurrison, on the occasion of his visit
to Salem. Thootiort comes from
tho misdirected onerglis of nn alleg
ed partisan organ at Portland, which
has sought to mako party capital out
of the Impending presidential visit
ever since the subject was first placed
before tho public. The Portland
Telegram has been charging that
tho reception at Portland was a par
tisan atlair managed entirely by
tho republicans. No attention has
been paid to the Ill-timed mouthtngs
of the recently imported editor from
tho Gopher state. As no attention
had been shown him before in this
matter and as no one saw lit to no
tice his chargo of republican monop
oly of tho honors in connection with
receiving tho President, the under
ground workings of this Imported
rodout havo thrown up a dlrHieap
nt another point tho publication of
a confidential lutervlew with Gov.
Pennoyer, to tho cilect thatthii Gov
ernor will not coudescond to meot
the President on his visit to Oregon,
unless tire Presldont in proper foim
first paid his respects to Governor
Penuoyer, etc
We believe some allowance should
bo mado before this statement of the
Telegram is swallowed. Tho editor
of that paper has evidently a por
sonal grievance at tho President,
tho republican party, or tho people
of Portland aud seoks lu this way to
make as much troublo all around as
he can. Ho is not in It, aud has not
sense enough to use any discretion
on such an occasion. We canuot
bellovo that Governor Pcnnoyei
gavo uttoranco for publication to
any such sentiments as are expressed
In the Telegram Interview. He has
too much sense to raise tho state's
right question at such an inopper
tune time. Ho is not so much of a
gull as the Telegram would have
tho publio bellovo. Ho will not do
nn act not in keeping with his po
sition as Chiof Executlvo and Mug
istrato of tho people of Oregon. He
will not forgot that while the
President Is on Oregon soli
ho is tho guest of people of tho sove
reign state of Oregon and also with
in the bounds of tho nation, and that
nation Is spelled with a big "N!"
Vo bolleve that Governor Pennoyer
will act as graciously and as courte
ously as any Governor In the nation.
Ho will not be lets genhdand courte
ous towurd tho President and hi
wife aud party than ho would bo to
any other lot of sightseers that come
to Salem. Tho spleen that Is con
tained In the article In the Telegram
Is not of tho kind that usually ani
mates Governor Peunoyer's breast.
Ho knows that tho rigorous code
that prevailed in the days of Geo.
Washington and John Adams,
when party feeling und political
acrimony ran a thousand fold higher
than now, Js uot adapted to our ago
of generous rivalry and commercial
development. Governor Pennoyer
may uot get In and boom Oregon to
the presidential party as tbeGovcrnor
of California did when ho met them
with a brass band at tho stato lino
and eulogized tho Goldoii Stato to
havo It telegruphed all over the
world. But Pennoyer will not do
anything boorish or churlish us the
