The success of the citizen's ticket
at the consolidated Portland election
Moudav marks the continued de
cline of bossism in Oregon politics.
The lucrative pursuit of this political
art is ou the wnne. Tho man who
Invests his capital In setting up as a
boss In Oregon or Its chief cltv will
be pretty sure of tho Irishman's
dividends. Consolidation Itself was
opposed iu vain by tho local rlug
politicians who aro on tho make.
Tho tidal wave of resentment at
their interference in the ell'ort to
enlarge the franchise, beyond petty
bossism, has also swept them to do
featut tho first consolidation vote.
Men went to the polla with firmness
of determination never before ex
pressed to down bossism as u munic
ipal trade. Tho people who have to
foot tho bills of city government
undoubtedly spoke loudly on Mon
day for a purely businesi adminis
tration of city atlalrs. Tho llrst elec
tion was a triumph for tho disinter
ested taxpayer, which if realized
in nil its fullness, will prove the
death-knoll to tho extravgant and
expeuslvo spoils system of city gov
ernment iu Portland. It means, so
far as tho people could declare at
this election, that they want their
city governed as free from politics
as their schools Tho tuxpuyor has
no more interest iu havinir politics
lutrodueed iu either at his expense.
As "there is no politics In politics,"
but as it is onl y a miestlon of "make,"
so there should bo no politics iu city
or school government. Uoou gov
ernment should be tho only motto,
and men who are politicians and
partisans only for what thero Is
in it should bo given a wide berth.
They aro npl to look upon tho polit
ical gooso from which they are to
take not only tho golden eggs, but
nluck feathers and all. Tho day of
I tho cxpeusve ward slugger and boss
rolling In spoils is at an ond for tuo
present iu Portland.
Tho election is tho defeat of the
bosses. Lotnu who nover roso abovo
bjlug a lesser light in tho heavens
of bossism Is retired. Simon whoso
ambitious havo spread nets ovor
nearly tho whole nation receives
successlvo downfalls. His attempts
to carry acomposlto ticket matches
well with with his hostility to the
Australian ballot law, aud his past
tint t cal nract ces. His ticket is
always composite In his own inter
ests, whether it ho at a city, state, or
national election. His bossism
rouges the whole garment of political
effort. Nothing is too small or too
great. Ho holds with one hand a
firm grip on tho police department
nt Pertland: with tho other ho
Krasps the judicary of tho federal
courts. It is this prostitution of
politics for personal ondB that tho
people aro tired of, and have so ex
pressed themselves at this election.

Harpers Weekly: A friend of tho
postmaster general Is reported to
have said recently: "If a spittoon-
cleaner dies, tho telegraph wires
grow hot with messages from sena
tors and representatives and party
committeemen besieging the post
master general of tho United States
to appoint two or threo dozen men
to the vacant place. He must either
insult them all by peremptorily
'turning them down,' or ho must
examlno luto their respective claims
with core before making his choice,
which finally pleasos one supplicant
and angers all the rest."
This annoyance Is said to have
oxusnerated tho -Postmaster-General
1 nto u resolution to reform tho sys
tem of promotion In thodepartmeut.
As tho Times point out.the reform Is
already there.lf he chooH's to adopt it.
TIib retried "conversion" of the
PoBtmastor-Generul to reform,
which means, probably his Im
patience and disgust villi the
system of Blurting tho wiioie sieam
engiue of patronage to pore an
upple, It Is not peculiar to him.
Twenty years ogo General Cox, bee
retayof the Interior, wild plulnly
that congressional Insistence ujiou
the business of appointing aud re
moving spittoon-cleaners and nlmilar
functionaries left the head or a de
partment little llmo for the dis
charge of hi proper duties.
The spoils system will either
break down of Its own weight, or, as
Lincoln said, It will break down the
uoverumeut. When tho spittoon-
eleauers and char womn I doubled
and quadrupled, the potmotcr
general will huvo no time to Ton-
tlder the postal service.
