The prohibitive freight rates will
do inorc TO PROMOTE SOCIALISM
AND PRECIPITATE PUBLIC OWN
ERSHIP than all that ths stump
speakers tan say or tho yollow Jour
nals can print.
The traffic managers arc to conrtder
this matter In San Francltco, and If
the newspapers of the stato wouU
take up the discussion, and back tho
demands of Oregon officials, the evu
would bo removed.
The policy Introduced under Mr.
Markham, and pursued by Mr. Coman,
of the 8. P. Co., of encouraging West
ern Oregon Industries, HAS BEEN
niinPLV OVERTHROWN, AND
THEIR GOOD WORK LARGELY UN
DONE,
The broad quoatlon arises, what are
thn railroads for. but to handle' tho
traffic of tho people to rorvo tho wanU
and needs of tho massos? Whan they
are run on any othor theory they aro
nln at a financial loss and ruin of
business.
In Iowa a distance tariff was enacted
with sultablo terminal charges for tho
handling and tiso of care. The rail
road managers rebelled at tho propo
sition, and WHEN IT WENT INTO
EFFECT TRAFFIC WAS DOUBLED
AND EARNINGS INCREA8ED.
Tho Iowa ralroads under laws to
protect tho Iowa pcoplo against dis
crimination and to securo reasonable
rates of transportation have made the
railroads prosperous In that state, and
their stockholders aro insured good
dividends.
The fight In Wostorn Orogon for
reasonable car sorvlce to shlppors
and rates under which Industries can
live cannot bo smoUiored by a fow
big nowspnpors kcepng still and a fow
railroad politician)) saying that every
thing Is all right.
Tho fight Is a fight In the ronl Inter
est of the railroad property ltsolf, and
AGAINST HAVING P0LICIE8
ADOPTED THAT WILL MAKE THE
FARMERS AND MANAGERS OF IN
DUSTRIES AND THEIR EMPLOYES
PERMANENTLY HOSTILE to all
transportation corporations,
The demagog will flourish under
such condtlons of hostility and es
trangement between tho corporations
nml tho mosses of the people, and no
good result ran be secured In tho long
run from domagoglcal agitation, nor
from urrwIso.short-Blghtcd and bull

NO ONE-MAN POWER IN MARION

The two names which the recent
New York mayonillty election have
made most conspicuous are Charles
Francis Murphy, the Tammany
"boss." and Oeorge II. McClollan, tho

ficult to say which one has gained the
most from the Tammany victory
probably Murphy for a successful
manager wields a far greator power
than a successful candidate. Mur

out for officials be kept to tho lowest
notch consistent with fairly good ser
vice. All money paid above this Is money
wasted on creating a privileged, stall
fed class at the oxponse of the com
mon peopU.
Second, keep down tho amount of
money paid for interest to tho lowest
notch no Inlorest at all is the best
policy. '
Evory dollar paid for imprest to the
holders of large capital Increases the
dead weight of Idle wealth that Is a
curse to any country.
The third ossentlal of good govern
ment Is to conduct all public Improve
ments possible with the moans and
rovonuee that can be secured.
Koep down the outgo for officialism
and the usury account for tho bond
holder, and expand tho domain of pub

Keep monoy from going Into the
hands of tho privileged classes, and
scatter It through the avonuos of com
mon labor.
Tho official class and Iho capital

will take caro of thomsolves.
Thoy need little promotion or expan
sion of their Interests, as tho preda

From the newspaper reports, It can
easily be demonstrated that there were

Tho Lewis and Clark push now In

Rev. W. W. Case, of Sacramento,
denounced tho Tuqsday Club, the moot

Tho result of the advertisement Is that
there Is such a demand for tickets
that many havo to ho refused. Any

their wild desire to bo damned.

AVOID "GROUP" PHOTOGRAPHS.
Habit Is Temptation to Unkind Fate,
Says Writer.
A manual on newspapor roportlns
published a fow yen'rs ago had a bit
of counsel to out-of-town correspond
ents which ran somewhat In this
wlse: "Don't send people away to
gether. When a man nnd a woman
Ieavo town tho samo day. put thorn In
different paragraphs." This advice la

or who makes ono -of a casual group
to bo photographed, courts the un
kindest cuts of fnte. Fato often
wroaks iUolf In tho pictorial newspa
pers, or perhaps as "Exhibit A" in
the divorce courts.
Tho best that can ho said of tho
man with tho promlscucus photograph
habit Is that ho has a boautlful con
ndonco In human naturo. a conlldonco
that constitutes a statute of limitation
on the past of his acquaintances, and
a plonnry Indulgonco for their future.
So you soo him smirking blandly from
the snow window of a tln-typo gal
lery, with a foolish young thing's head
on his shouldor, or hold'ng down somo
plcturosquo mountain rock In compa

If any on think that caution In

let him turn up tho group photo
Jtraphs he had takou in his grammar

none of them has had a workhouso

Ayer's
Supplying Polo Ponies.
The business of supplying polo
ponloa to the crack cjubS of tho big
cities has grown to sucn an cxium
In Colorado that contractors now
mako' fancy terms every year furnish
ing trained animals to the wealthy
patrons of the sport Of late years
there has boon an attempt to raise tho
standard of polo ponies as to blood.
Excellent results have been achieved,
and it is claimed that a wou-ureu
pony raised In tho Rocky mountains
and allowed to run until 2 years old
cannot be excelled for polo purposes.
Another good class Is tho bronco that
has been trained to cattle work. A
bronco of this sort Is used to picking
certain cattle from a herd and to
obeying almost every thought of his
rider. This training Is Invaluable to
the polo field, where a pony must act
largely of his own accord. Conse
quently many a cowboy, tempted by
a good offer, has parted with tho alert
little bronco that has spent his early
years nosing out cattle or In partici
pating in tho excitements of tho
round-up, wins tho applauso of con
noisseurs at many n wel-fought field
battle.
Somo of tho polo ponies from tho
Western range havo been sent to In
dia, says Outdoors, and others havo
ono'to some of tho wealthy English
club men at Asiatic stations. Thoy
raroly break down except from ago
and seem to bo good for many years
of hard polo work In nny climate
Tholr good records of sports Is a fine
tribute to the quality and staying
powers of American horses.
A Ministers Mistake.
A city minister was roccntly handed
a notice to be read from his pulpit
Acoomponylng It was a cupping from
a newspaper bearing upon the matter
Tho clergyman started to road the ox-
tract and found that It began: "Tako
Komp's Balsam, tho best Cough Cure"
This was hardly what ho nad expected,
and, after a moment's hesitation, ha
turned it over and found on the other
side tho matter Intended for readlng.3
