It is always personally for or against measures or men, and this Is not always pleasant, being nclthor a rose-water or a dish-water alylo of publication, but readers have tho satisfaction of bolng able to agree or dlssoat, and the editor rosorves tho right to do tho same. Back of "Tho Journal is a dear old fathor and mother In tho city of Chicago, who 3mvo soon a great deal of tho stron--uous llfo, but are now comfortably sottlod la a cosy homo In ono of tho most charming and healthful suburbs Longwood. There Is not a day passes slnco wo left them thoro that a message has not gouo ' to them about our work on the I'aclllc Coast, and tho thought has boon that there waB an old' father who took a friendly JntetxMt In all that wo dhl1 or tried to do, and that ho sympathized with our undertakings and shared in our defeat and victory. "Whom tho Hofer brothors camo to tho Pacific Coast 15 years ago It was with tho deliberate Intention of mak ing homos hero and building up somo small nowspapers that should bo closely identified with the Intorosts of tho pooplo and with succosful gov ornmont. Thoro has been, deliberate lyi maintained a Bplrlt of Indepen dence and devotion to caises and x principles rathor than blind follow lng of persons or parties or factions. That program has boon adhered to and no matter what party or candi date has been supported tho support jdvon has boon whole-hearted and wnrm-heartotV and far boyond tho quostloni of pecuniary gain, Whllo a living has been mado, and tho idea of buslnoss eolvoncy has boon, kept constantly uppermost, monoy has not been coveted In tho conduct of tho30 newspapers, Today E. Hofer and A. F. Hofer own tho Dally and Woekly Capital Journal, and Prank RANCHER'S t DAY AT THE BIG A tjjANO " SALE , 8ATURDAY 99 COISlfVlERCIAL STREET. Hofer owns a half lnterost in the Daily and Weekly Coast Mall of Marshflold, Coos county, and has Just established the North Bend (Coos, .county), dally and Semi Weekly Post. Allthoso nowspapera are Republican, but tho management has novor hesitated to support men of othor partloj when tho intorests of tho people demanded such a course. Hut as a rulo Republican government Is preferred to that by any other party. Iii Iowa A. P. Hofer & Sons' for nearly twenty years controlled tho destinies, of tho McGregor, Clayton county, News, and mndo It a woll known newspaper In tho Republican party there. When tho Republican party et-'poused Prohibition In theft state, they did not leave tho party, but after ton years of agitation and strife, that resulted In making great expense and not preceptlbly diminish ing tho liquor trafflc, but causing hard feelings between neighbors and com munities, wo wore glad to leave it to its fato, and a few years after we came awny the attompted laws to pro hibit tho manufactuoi' and sale of In toxicating liquors wore repealed. Somo have expressed surprlso that Hofer Brothers In Oregon havo not Jumped at the chance to saddle pro hibitory laws onto this state. If Iowa with 100,000 Republican majority could not make that law a success, what would a Pacific coast state ac complish? Ono of tho Hofer Bros., also established a German Republican paper In tho city of Des Moines and successfully conducted tho samo for going on two years. It was tho only Gorman Republican paper in the stato at that time. Now that Is tho news paper record of father and sons and wo feel proud of the samo as It ox tends over a period of nearly thirty years. That a father, three sons and flvo daughters should have all been trained to become practical prlntors in an Iowa country weekly nowspapor offlco was Ire itself a remarkablo occurrence, and but for tho German family custom of educating children to becomo work orr, It might never have happened. But so It was, and when tho sons wont out west to grow up with the country, tho daughters bravely stayed with fathor and helped him get out tho paper and run' tho Job office In Iowa, until tho paper thero wa3 sold out, and tho parents removed to Chi cago. Two of tho daughters had gone Into tho publishing buslnoss thoro, printing, editing and publish ing the Kindergarten Magazine and tho Child Garden and national organ of tho Mother's Club movement thai eventuated In national and Interna tional organizations. Tho national Mother's Congross and tho Interna tional Kindergartener's association are part of history and havo assemb led In largo conventions in tho largest cities of tho United States and Can ada. Tho two magazines had a wide Influence and circulation that ran in to thousands of copies. But this was only a part of tho work that started from tho Iowa country printing ofllco. Tho girls who becamo typo-sotters In tho country printing ofllco and JItor ally picked up an education thero and In tho Iowa High school In tho town of McGregor, established throo Kin dergarten training schools In Chicago, 'the Longwood FroeUdllan Institute, tho Postalozzi-Froebel Training school at Chicago Commons, Grand avenue and Morgan street, and tho Gortrudo House training Bchool at 40 Scott Btroot, and part of tho tlmo a fourth training school In South Chicago. In theso schools a great majority of the successful Kindergarten' workerjs of tho Unltod States havo been trained,' and at this tlmo of tho year como tho dainty programs and graduating ex orcise announcements from theso sovoral schools, reminding us of what tho pottlcoat branch of tho family is doing for suffering humanity at tho othor end of tho lino, and llko tho mother In tho Cotter's Snutrday Night, It Is a pleasuro to know that thoso at ono time nltogothor too nu morons girl babies aro also "respected llko tho lavo," and havo mado tholr way from tho country printing ofllco to respected positions that must awaken tho pride of tho solf-saorlllc-lng parents who so generously bo stowed thojr lovo and affoctlon on all alike Ono of those girls from o llttlo country town In Iowa has bo como tho hoad of tho dopartmont of vocal music Irri the tenchor's collogo of Columbia collogo.

Iinpl .1 Tv Sn"o!!1 Acont world would have opened up such op portunities to young peoplo? Thero Is none equal to our beloved land, and tho doors of opportunity still swing outward. So long as Iho public schools aro open, and so long as In dustry and ambition will bo rewarded without regard to how humble may havo been the origin of any citizen, young men and young womon need not despair of accomplishing some thing for themselves. Without the advantages of college educations and with none of the drawbacks of wealth or the handicap of society, these sub jects of This all.too egotistic and per sonal sketch have so much to be grate ful for that they fool they can never repay tho debt of gratitude to tho country that has supported them and tho people who have encouraged them. Why should wo not feel proud to uphold Its Institutions and never turn our backs on the laws, or the flag, or tho constitution! that allowed tho triumph of these principles that aro lifting tho wholo mass of the American people to standards of Intel ligence and prosperity that are un known In other countries and Impos sible under other governments. Tho poor man and the adopted children from other shoro3 have here avonues to success and a broad highway to pro minence and distinction, that is open to all. Let no man despair and' say that wo ought to have a different sys tem of carrying on this government. Lot no man seek hastily to overthrow what has so fairly stood the tests of tlmo and experience. While much that we havo said has been unseemly personal, we rej'olco at this opportun ity to Inculcate tho principles that our land Is the beat undor tho sun and our country tho most perfect human Institution yet discovered, o CHILDREN NEED A HOME. During tho last few evenings an evangelist has hold forth near the comor of Comemrclal and Stato streets. Tho man is about 50 years of ago and hats long flowing hair, sings, prays and preaches to the few peoplo who through Idle curiosity stop to hear his Ir coherent and ramb ling talks. Tho man has a perfect right to dovoto his tlmo to this If he can find nothing better to do, but another feature adds entirely a dif ferent color to his meetings. With this poor ioluded follow aro a woman and two small girls and tho quartotto Join In thoir nightly ser vices. Thoy nro Illy clad and show no outward marks of education, not only In scholarly pursuits, but In tho ex porlonco that comes from brushing up against tho rough old .world In Its many phases. Tho girls are young, In fact, too young to Btand on tho street corner and bo ogled and guyed by tho cos mopolitan crowd that saunters around Just to see tho sights. Tho duty of a father Is to his fam ily first, that Is the duty of a true fathor to protect his offspring before ho heeds tho doings of his follow man. Reason dictates such a courso' and neglect of that duty Is nothing short of a crime. The Innocents that aro begotten by man and woman aro en titled to tho protection and car of tholr progenitors. Forming tho center of a rollgtous circle for an hour or moro In a crowd ed thoroughfare is not such caro and protection. Tho fathor, and tho wo man who Is ono of tho party, doubt loss tho mother, aro not capable of Inculcating tho spirit ,of right Into thoso llttlo soml-walfs, who need a homo llfo moro than any thing olse at their ago. Justice to the children dqmnnd that Bonro chnrltablo or philanthropic body tnko thorn In ohargo and start thorn on tho propor path. Under tholr prosont surroundings It Ja difficult to forecast what will be como of tho children. r THE PEOPLE'S PROGRAM. In it's fight for a pooplo's program in public affairs Tho Journal has al ways boon ondorsed by tho pooplo. Tho Journal has nlways fought for tho host posslblo city government and tho pooplo havo sustained it. Tiro Journal has always .fought for tho best posslblo countfy gqvornraont anil tho peoplo hayofsustalned Its of- tor public schools and bollove3 tho pooplo should sustain that proposition also. ,'Good local gpvornpront Is tho Ideal of this newspaper and when city, county, and schools are well managed a'newspairon man may begin to pay somo attention to stato or national politics. Reform begin at homo, and The Journal would feel that thoro was the greatest cause for pride In this city If its electors would on next Monday take the step forward that would say to tho rest of tho state, Salem will lead, not follow, In matters of public education. Salem- has the best clly govern ment 1n tho stato. Marlon county is tho best county government In tho state. Would It bo too much to ask of this community that It shall have tiro host public schools In tho stato. WORK OF POLITICIANS. The newspapers1 of the stato generally aro finding fault with .the" Oregon ex hibit at tho St. Louis fair, as not rep resenting tho state. Citizens who havo visited the fair at St. Louis write their disappoint ment to tho newspapers at home, and say It is not a creditable showing. Tho Portland push politicians who forced' themselves In charge of the wholo thing aro responsible for the failure to make It ai success. Tho Journal prints today a favor able roport of the Oregon) exhibit, but It Is written by one of the push In charge of the display. TJhese eulogies of persons who aro on a salary, and who must make the taxpayers feel that they have some thing for their monoy, are useless. To the credit of the newspaper men of tho state, thero Is not an Oregon newspaper man connectod1 with tho St, Louis exhibit. The kind of people who rush In and get these Jobs aro probably the best peoplo who will bother In this kind of crumb-picking Jobs. The people of tho state should not be too severe on tho St. Louis ex hibit, but thoy should not bo surprised If thero were moro and greater bills to pay before they are through with tho fair business. sL bbbbv HH bbm LH JbbH H ikh Ll LV iKi Tho Kind You Havo Always Bought, and which has been in uso ior over u years, ims uomo tno slgiiatnro of ana iias ucon ma,oio under his i,cr Tjy so,,nl supervision sinco its Infhncv" ectCUWi Allow no ono to deceive vou In i.iV All Counterfeits, Imitations and" Just-ns-gool"nrolnifc Experiments that trlflo with and cmlaiiper tho health of Infants and ChJJdron Exporionco ngalnpt Experiment, What is CASTORIA astoria is a harmless substitute for Castor OH, Pare goric, Drops and Soothing Syrups.

Tho Tillamook Bar Association hon ored Itself by showing respect for the retirement of Hon. R. P. Boise, whoso oxtonded service as Judge has1 been closed for the present. Meeting a political dofeat Is only an Incident In the llfo of a public man, and an official that Is characteristic of him. The old Judge was faithful to his convictions and principles. The unfair argument against hlra, that ho was too oil a man to sit on tho bench, will be llvedi down, and we predict many years of life, useful ne?s and honors for Judge Boise. If ho sees fit to retire from active life, ho will carry with him an untar nished reputation, and a record of long service In tho profession and on the bench that will be hla perpetual mon umont. He, can close a busy and strenuous career with tho universal good will his neighbors and the admiration of his friends. As a man and a citizen he has always stood firmly for what he believed right. Ho rounds up an active life, and a long life, without opposition, can closo a long career without criticism, and stepB down and out of the arona of hlB profession Into tho quieter walks of citizenship. His nfo battles havo been fought. He has galniedi tho crown of a ma terial competenco by honest effort. Ho has won the distinction of sue coss In every walk of llfo In an hon orable struggle. o THE CHANGE OF TEN YEARS.

Look over our city today, In overy one of tho seven wards fine Improve ments are being made. Largo and Bmall residences are be ing constructed, additions are being built, and) business buildings aro go ing up. And tho Salem) boom has not yet he gun. Tho adoption of the now char tor must bo followod by tho establish ment of first-class public schools. Insldo' of flvo years thoro will bo now bnnks, tho streots will bo perma nently Improved, and tho stato house painted.
