It Is customary to hand out n few mica little Moral tokens of respect to ih e defeated aspirants for nomination in convention. They are Inoxpenslve shut not the leas fragrant. The convention set Its face against he third term Idea In tlte case of the snot comiwlHiit nisessor this county vor had, Clmtt. I.emhcke, of Butte wllle.

The legislative aspirants who met olefeat were mi tiuusiinlly nble set of men. Several good legislative slates could have boen composed out of Hint crowd, ns usual some of the best men In the county getting left. In fact It would be hard to say whether those Avho were left or those who wero nom inated would lie the better lawmaker. Hon, .Jerome Simmons, for congree jilounl delegnte-nt-large, took his de feat gracefully, and Is a man who can lio relied upon to do what Is right In ainy emergency. His brother, Orover 3lmmnn, lost us congrosslonnl dele nte. being n tie with Alex IJtKollutte, nnd. drawing straws, Alex, got It.

The Murton county delegation to the congressional convention will be divided between Harris, of Lane, nnd Hermann, uf Douglus. the present cougreiSHiau. with several dark home possibilities In the district. The .Journal doe uot Join In the uu nl chorus of yelling whenever any thing can lie done to strike h blow at Hon. llluger Hermann. It has been done many times In the past, and he still lives.

HOSTETTER'S STOMACH BITTERS umq5BEbec Sunday at 197 Commercial street Oregon as second-class matter. an opportunity to nominate a Marlon county man last year, they forced this county take Mr. Hermann, who was their candidate In tho most pro nounced manner. Tho reasons advanced for tho nomi nation of Hermann then hnvo Im proved with ago and tlioy will bo im pressed upon the minds of our Re publican frionds of La no In the com Ing congrosslonal convention. HAVE JUDGE BURNETT'S FRIEND8 SECURED AN INSTRUCTED DELEGATION. For a county Hint has' two avowed candidates for circuit judge, nnd n possible candidate or two for district attorney, many do not endorse the manner In which It was attempted to secure nn Instruction for Judge Har nett In the Marlon county convention. While there lias been division nmong Republicans ns to Judge Rurnett's re- nomination, nnd ninny have boon bit teny opposing him for another term ns circuit Judge, thoro has beon no fight conducted ngalnst him In the newspapers or personally to prevent his having the Marlon county delega tion, If the Republicans of tho district genornlly wanted him renominated. It was thought by Republicans gen erally that n man who hns boon on the bench twolvo years would bo willing to trust Republicans to deal fairly with him, without demanding an In struotod delegation from his own county. It should also ho romomborod that the district convention will be com posod of about sixty dologntoa, and about thirty delegntos will nomlnnto two circuit Judgos and a district at torney. To give Judge Rumett nn In structed delegation of twenty-threo delegates means a cinch on the nomi nation of the whole judicial ticket, and Is not fair to other Interests. There hns been n perfect willing- nes to give him the vote of Marion county. If there was any general do- sire In the district to have htm for nu other term. No one has been honrd to oppose that. No falr-niindod Re publican hns boen willing to give him nu Instructed delegation. Yet, ln spite of this gonornl situa tion, an Instruction wns slipped Into the county convention, by Inserting n few Hues of endorsement In the gen eral entity Republican platform. It was rend to the convention when no one wns expecting nreport from the committee on resolutions, rushed through and declared carried, and a division wns refused ngalnst a storm of noes. Hweause the chairman of the con vention happened to be a personal friend nnd admirer of Judge Burnett gave Itlm no right to sanction such a proceeding. It was unfair to the in terest of other friends. It was unjust to select one man for special proteo tlon. aud name him at the expense of other gentlemen, it wns autocratic, un American. un-Retublicnn, and cannot be regarded as a legitimate ami bind- lug luatrurtlou upon twenty-three men who know th(r own minds, and hate some regard for the Interests of tho party and other candidates. All this Is said without the least re flection on Judge Burnett We regard him aa a man of Integrity and honest Intention to be fair to clients and tax luyer. and with a full public declar ation on the The Journal to support Judge Burnett. If he is renominate.!. He ha. no riant, however, to suck a pked HnU railroaded Instruction, and the people generally , feel that his frleuds have overreachWl. In securing au Instruction In this manner. NOT A HERMANN VICTORY. The claim that the election of F. T. Wrlghtman ns delegate-at-largo to the congressional convention Is a great Harris victory. Ho was ohosn as a popular Salem man, in a convention almost halt Salem delegates, over Mr. SimmouB. of Monitor, a country del FIFTY CENTS , A MONTH A small bottle of Scott's Emulsion costing fifty cents will last a baby a month a few drops in its bottle each time it is fed.

SCOTT ft IIOWNE, 409 Petl Street. New York gate, who does not come to tho city more than four times a year, and then only by a small majority. The convention was completely handled to force a declaration for Harris, by hook or crook, by fair means or unfair. Yet, In spite. of that, a country delegate nearly carried tho county. It Is oasy to down a country dele gate with a popular city man, and an adroit politician like Mr. Wrlghtman, but it cannot bo claimed that Is an ex plosion of popular enthusiasm for Mr. Harris. When Mr. Wrightmnn was nominat ed for dologato-at-largo It was not stated that he was a Harris candi date, to tost the strength of tho con vention. Ho wns run on his own per sonal popularity, and Is then paraJed as a declaration of the convention ngalnst Hormnnn. Is that fair and honorable politics? It Is winning by tactics that are not on the highest plane of Republicanism, and doosnot tend to popularize those who omploy such methods with fnlr-mlndotl peo ple. "LUCK" AND STOCKS. Perhaps most people bollavo in a dim sort of way that the gains and losses through speculation depend on "luck." Millions In this country with noth ing but slim salaries betwoon their families and want Invost monoy In glided schomoa of which they know nothing and cnll It "trying their luck." It Is dofylng fato. Thousands of young men and young women, ongor to get forward by leaps Instead of by tho plodding process of toll, tuko chancos on gllttorlng prom ises, hoping that "luck" may bo with them. Barnum discovered long ago that the American people "like to be hum bugged." Tho nninslng number of schemes for small investments prove It has been widely discovered that the American people like also to be swindled. As n mntter of fact, there Is no more "luck" In a stock Investment than In any other. Men who make 8UCC8eB8S ln stocks tnke no chancos, for stock Investments can he figured out with as much mathematical cer tainty ns can nny other business ven tures. And tho really good stocks seldom go bogging for buyers. The promoters with a good, safo scheme rendlly finds powerful financial 1 a. :. Ing. It Is the other fellow who goos peddling his stocks In small shares through the hy-streeta and alleys, blarneying clerks, stenographers and their smnll saving Into schemes that knowing men will not touch. A Cleveland bank cashier went to the penitentiary not long ago because he had risked $17,000 of his bank's money In stocks nnd had lost. In all his operations, extending over several years, he had made but one lucky hit; he won $10,000. but promptly lost It again. With better opportuni ties and abilities than are possessed by moat people to Judje of the safe ty of Investments, he still lost all he risked. Robert. U Cutting of New York was once a millionaire with Mae flnan olal training. But an Inventory of ids estate him just disclosed the fact that his great fortune has been dissipated in urtmant-hued but empty financial bubbles. Share in "wildcat" oil aud mine enterprise, mining stocks not worth the Ink need In printing them, value lees second mortgage lionds, all reu resenting an enormous total on the face, represent practically uothlng In fact Out of $0,000 share In forty-' six companies only 300 are returned by the appraisers as of value, and these at current quotations are worth exactly 'siAOO; - ' ' Here was a man of wealth, a mem ber of a broker's firm, who had the beet of opportunities to win "luck" to his side. But Instead of Investing In the safest stocks that produced Axed and Euro dividends, he trusted to "luck" and chased dreams to his own ruin. It wo could guese how many small fortunes wero wiped out by Invest ment In the samo swindling compan ies some Idea could bo gained of tho utter helplessness of tho unexpeiS enced lnvostor. TWO FREEMONT MEN. Wm. Armstrong, of South Salem, met O. M. Lease, of Oxford addition, In The Journal office this morning, and tho editor, romarking that his father was a Freomont Republican, both gentleman turned and shook hands, each declaring that he had voted for Freomont for President In 185G. Those veterans of the Republi can party were very happy to relate that they had voted for every Repub lican Prosidont who had ever been elected. X-RADIUMS Thore Is still an occasional liar loft in tho world of politics nnd out of it. Tho Statesman rejoices over its al leged Harris victory. "Well, it has a right to a chance to crow, as well as to oat crow. Thoro would have been good sonso nnd propriety In the Marlon county convention instructing Its stato dele gation for tho ronomlnatlon of Chief Justice F. A. Moore. But they will voto for him anyhow. PUBLIC EDUCATOR People Learn About the Far From Newspapers. East In times of wnr between two great nations the newspaper becomes n groat public odttcator. The press of the country Is today teaching the pub lic moro nbout Russia, Japan, Chlnn nnd the Far East than It would over learn from geography or history. This Is lnrgely because tho excitement producod by tho bin mllitnry opera tions has stimulated an Interest which would not otherwise be arous ed, and tho nowspnpors are largely keeping nllvo this Intorost by sup plying the domand for Information. Not only tho geography of that part! of the world but also Its history, po- lltlcnl, Industrial, commercial and, military conditions nro set forth In compact form, so as to npponl to the busy roador. A few years ngo a vory small pro portion of tho pe-oplo of tho Unltod States knew anything nbout the Phil ippines or Cuba or Spain. In fact, thero was In this country a dense Ignoranco nbout our own navy, and little more was known of our nrmy. After wnr was begun between the United Stntos and Spain the people commenced to rend, and the newspn pors furnished the reading matter. Even chlldron learned the difference between battleships, cruisers,, gun boate, monitors, torpedo boats nnd other wnr vessels, and the names and sizes of our fighting boats were soon familiar to all. Information wns also acquired nbout Cuba, Spain, Porto Rice and the Philippines, and a wealth of knowlodgo was obtained about our foreign policies and the trentles ex isting between this nnd other conn trios. Thus does the press become a groat school, supplying to the public such Information ns is most Interesting nnd vnltmble. "Whenever there Is n crisis like this." says the Richmond Times-Dispatch, "whenever there Is n dlsader like the eruption of Mont Pelee. the newspapers at once be come a great school. In which the people may learn vnluable lessons and practically all that Is needed to be learned without reference to text books or encyclopedias. The press Is pre-eminently a great educator and is fairly entitled to be reckoned as part and parcel of our public school sys tern." Burmlnghnm (Ala.) News.
