EDITORIAL.
Tmiemnlna events of more tlian
common Interest are Memorial day,
May 31, and Intercollegiate Field day,
June 5th. Large crowds or visitors
will participate In these events.
Saturday will be a lively day at Sr.
lem. Three athletic associations meet
for a local field day. The People's
party county central committee will
hold an Important session. It will be
a good business day at the Capital
City.
To receive an encouraging word In
a letter Un plcwuw to even a news
paper mun, iiinl while we cannot print
all iucIi. th.-y arc not the le-s appre
ciated. Enclose a few words or opin
ion, or now, or crop conditions, or or
erltlc'mii when you write. We are
not even averse to tally.
The Statesman should let upon Its
nouses or Governor Lord and Hon. II.
W. Corbett terore It loses the busi
ness support or those to whom It Is so
heavily in debt that they arc compelled
to palroulzc Its columns. Besides It
lived well through the McKInley
campaign on their contributions.
The great Christian Endeavor gath
ering at 'Frisco, In July is liable to
attract hundreds or vl&itors rrom
Oregon. Mr. Olle, the state presl
dentand manager forOrcgon.ls hopimr
to announce a $15 round trip rate, and
a special Oregon train that
Is to carry not less than
600 passengers. The railroads now
otler only a $20 first-class round trip
rate, under which attendance will be
small.
Local brickyards do not appreciate
having the state .penitentiary supply
ing convict-made brick to contractors
In compctlon with rrcc labor. They do
not appreciate having a state Institu
tion supported by public taxes put In
compctlon with them as taxpayers
uud business men. Last year a largo
quantity of brick wus traded for cord
wood and this hurt both the brick
business and the wood business. We
can not blame the superintendent of
the prison, as he Is no doubt author
ized by law to do all these things, and
does them to mako a good financial
showing for the Prison. The truo
theory of employing convict labor Is
tocreate new employment forconylcts.
The construction of stato 6ewcra,
state buildings, state roads and canals
would be proper and no one could take
exception. But the convict labor
should not bo allowed to enter fields
of rree labor and ruinously interfere
with any established business.
The loyalty of Governor Lord to
his party should have spared him the
disgraceful paragraphs to which ho
Is being treated dally In tho States
man the aliened party onran. Its
course cannot hurt htm, and can only
ruin its own standing as a nowspaper
business. It Is well known Hendricks
has been kept at tho reform school
through the especial protection
and Intervention of the governor
The governor treated the reform school
superintendent most charitably and
liberally when ho was dally writing
articles condemning tho governor, and
left his post of duty to come down aud
Join personally In tho Mltchell"push."
Lord was offered tho scnutonsliln two
years ago by a combination or totes,
but reruscd because Ills party had not
declared ror freo coinage, whllo ho
leaned In that direction. Party
honor forbade his accepting. Now ho
Is abused by the party "organ." But
the Statesman Is no longer properly
to be classed as a party organ. It Is
our, disgruntled, out with Its party,
for 6ale to any coiner, and unablo any
longcr,ti even "hold-up" anybody.
Slnco tho dissolution of tho hold-up
and tho appointment of Corbett,
OovcrsorLord lias boon ablo to pur
clmsefetfwunsiou In Salem, States
man,' Mfcym
To Iinvq such an Item appear In tho
imirnliig Republican paper of his own
town must convince Governor Lord
that nil his partisan loyal I ty to the
Bcpubllan party has met with poor
reward. He knows however that It
cannot hurt him. It Is printed not
for home consumption, -but for East
crn clipping bureaus, t Injure his
unsullied reoutntlon with the Mc
KInley administration. Five years
before the late attempted Oregon leg
liitittirncvermet Judzc Lord loaned
iinv. SLrMtt4in &1.0J0 to build a home
with. The debt was not paid and in
terest accumulated to the amonnt or
nearly another thousand. Artcr the
moit rrlendly correspondence the
mutter was adjusted by Stratton
deeding the property overto Governor
Lord ror the debt, a sum which it
would not have fetched at a forced
sale. The Statesman published the
recorded transfer and cuncollatiou or
the mortgagc.and on topor that prints
the baseless Insinuation that Gover
nor Lord has bought a "mansion"
with the proceeds or the hold-up or
the legislature. The class or creatures
Mitchell had drawn abuut him and
would have rewarded, had he suc
ceeded, by appointments of such
characters to places In the public ser
vice, makes the people or Oregon.lfeel
doubly grateful to Governor Lord If
la reality he assisted In Mitchell's
defeat.
If tho state authorities want to
employ convict labor why do they not
build decent roads from the city to
the public Institutions. A road
sixty feet wide should be built from
the city limits to the reform school
six miles long. It should be put up
above the winter Hoods. It should
be tile drained and eulverted and
bridged. It should be gravelled and
rolled. It should be planted with
ornamental trees, native shrubs that
grow wild. Cattle should be kept off
such a boulevard, Such a road would
take a large force or men a year or two
to build. It would take a force of
convicts to take care or It. It would
be an object lesson to teach good read
building to tho people. Twenty
miles of such state roads are needed
to connect the state Institutions, and
they would be n source of satisfaction
and economy, to siy nothing of edu
cation and civilization, to the people
or the whole state. The state roads
are a disgrace to our commonwealth,
iritis desired to employ convict la
bor here Is an opportunity that will
confer a great benefit In a good cause
tho course or good roads. It would
be much better than to have them
make bricks ror sale In the open mar
ket. These suggestions arc not made
In a spirit orj critls-jlsm, but because
we believe they aro rounded on practi
cal business commonsensc.
The city or Salem Is much luneed of
a plumbing ordinance There arc good
points In tho ono bcroro tho council,
and they should be adopted so far as
they aro right and then put In rorcc.
Sanitary plumbing is Indispenstblc to
tho public health, and a new law Is
needed. No expensive machinery Is
wanted. No complicated legislation
is tdcslrable. Tho number or good
people who have defective plumbing
and unsanitary vaults and cesspools
and filthy drains Is very large. A law
Is needed to put tho town on a healthy
footing and when tho legislature
meets again, as It must meet berorc
rail, hair tho members will not be
down sick. But It caunot bo dono
without a clear law on tho sublect
that will bo enrorccd. All privy
vaults In the city should be subject to
luspectlou and strict regulations.
Tho Infectious diseases now so pre
valent will never bo abated whllo
every other lot In tho city has reek
lug, filthy, Infected, unvontllatcd and
disease-breeding conditions. Theso
aro plain truths, but It Is tuoloss to
cry out against acts of proyldcnco
when tho employment of n plumber
