WHY WE' WANT HERMANN? i Salem isn't a hog.or even a shoato, compared to Portland and some other places, but Salem has a selfish Inter est la olecthvg Blngor Hermann to congress for sovernl years to como. Salem wants $100,000 a year for tho 'Indian school and) $50,000 to protect and Improve and deopen tho harbor In front of tho city, and $10,000 to lovol and grailo tho pootofllco block. I Of course, If wo could semi somo I young man to congress with a fine barltono speaking volco and a smile j that would mako dogs wag tholr tails only to look at him, wo'd got all those tilings aftor awhllo. I Somo such young fellow would doubtless bo proud to become our exalted congressional orrand boy, ovon If wo couldn't hlro him at day wagos for any othor purpose Ho would got tho glory and we would got soup. What Salem wants Isld congress man with n doublo-rlvltod pull on tho United Stntes treasury that will not RETIRING METHODIST BI8HOP3. The Methodist Episcopal church Is holding Its quadriennlal general con ference at Los Angeles and has de cided to retire five of Its aged bishops from active sorvice. Bishops of the Methodist Episcopal chifrch, llko pre lates of the Episcopal and Roman Catholic churches aro elected for life, and It Is somowhat unusual, in eccle siastical administration to retire bish ops on account of age, except at their own request. Tho five bishops whoae Involuntary retirement has been or doted by the general conference have boon bishops of tho Methodist Episco pal church for from twenty to thirty twq, years each and their ages range from 70 In tho case of Bishop Foss, of Philadelphia, to 79 In tho cases of Bishop Merrill, of Chicago, and An drews, of Now York City. Tho retired bishops will, of course, continue to bo bishops but will not bo In active sorvice. The Methodist church provides a pension qf $2500 or half pay for superannunted bishops. Bishop Thomas Bowman, of East Orange, N. J., Is 87 years of age. He heads the list of Methodist bishops, and was elevated to that rank In tho Mothodlst church In 1872, when Bish ops Stephen M. Merrill, of Chicago, and Edward G. Andrews, of New York City, who are his Juniors by eight years, were also choson to'tho bish opric of the church. Bishop Cyrus D. Foss, of Philadelphia, whoso retire ment is strongly opposed by tho Phil adelphia clergymoii under his episco pal direction, Is barely 70 years of ago and is said to bo In possession of full bodily and mental vigor. He was elected a bishop of the church in 1880. Bishop Malllolul, of" Auburn dale, Mass., Is 75 and Bishop John M. Walden. of Cincinnati, is 73. Both were elected bishops In 1884. Bishop John H. Vincent, of Zurich, Switzer land, is 72. He became a bishop in 1888 and is to bo retired at his own request. No reference Is made In the dispatches regarding Bishop Henry W. Warren, of Donver, who Is 73 years of age, and may possibly be al ready on the retired list. He and Bishop Bowman appear to bo the only Mothodt3t bishops on the list abovo tho ago of 70 who are not retiring, voluntarily or Involuntarily, from ac tlvo se'rvlce. The precedent now being estab questions bo affected by the victory of either party? If the Democrats were successful next fall, they would elect a President and Democratic Hduso of Represent atives; but tho Senate would remain Republican. Tho Houso would bo flooded with tariff bills, each setting forth the vlshes of a different faction. The tariff debates would occupy much time, but even if the Democratic fac tions came to an ngre'omnot, tho legls'-1 latlon could be blocked by tho Re publican Senate. This prolonged uncertainty would be likely to caus a repetition of the panic of 1893, when the democracy began to run the country. If the Republicans are victorious, the party will have to act and can accede to a demand for a reasonable and conservative revision of the tariff If such Is the will of the voters. As it Is well known that the Republicans will adhere to tho fundamental doc trine of protection, their revising the tariff would cause no general alarm. After the election the Republicans will face the tariff question as a busi ness proposition and solve it in ac cordance with the best Interests of the majority. If the Democrats cap tured the House, they would mako a violent but planless attack upon tho present tariff and yet could accom plish nothing, except to bring about a period of uncertainty, which is fatal to present business conditions. WATERSON FAVORS REFORMS. At the National Editorial associa tion hold at St. '"Louis Colonel Henry Wattorson, of LouIbVUIo, on "The Editorial Page," said In part: "The editorial page is valuable In the degree that It aids the reader to digest the news, It should either bo reformed or abandoned, Unddr a cer tain spell which has crept upon the modern newspaper It Is becoming, If It has not already become, a rather useless appendage not even orna mental. "Disinterestedness being tho soul, good humor is tho solar system of the editorial page, which should bo held subject to these precepts: "Write of a man nothing you would not say to his faco, and might not say In the hearing of decent people. "Avoid equally intimation and In- tlmidatlon, making no suggestions you are not prepared to roauco to llshod In tho case of Bishop Foss, if .assertion, and to sustain witty proof. followed four years hence, will cause Satire should keep wlthlni tne liniinria nr tho nrnhnlilA' wit linnor the restraint of sense, and oven In vective shorn of adjective and ad verb, and stripped to the waist should strlko out from the shoulder to hit only above the belt. "Tho port paragraph should bo al- the retirement of six more Methodist bishops who will havo attained the age of 70, when the next quadriennlal conforonco meets. Theso are Bishop Joyce of Minnea polis, and Thoburn, missionary bish op of Southern Asia, who are 08; Bishops FwIer, of Buffalo, FltzGor ald, of St. Louis and McCabe, of Oma ha, who aro G7, and Bishop Moore, of Shanghai, who Is GG.

At this time of tho year tho aver age man begins to havo longing for a llttlo closer contact with nature at tho end of a flshpolo. The desire to Bhoot and kill that comos along In tho fall Is absent and thoro Is an odor of flowers In tho air and sentiment In tho heart.
