It la n cruol shnmo to tnko candy from babies. But it isn't n clrciinistanco to tho way tho wool is pulled OVER THE PEOPLE'S EVES IN OREGON. Horo wo nre, n great common wealth with only ono largo city, WITH ONIiV ONE MORNING NEWS PAPER IN THAT CITY. An address is published in that paper na delivered before tho State Dar Association. Thnt address propounds to bo an argument, against tho direct loglsla tivo Bystom ENACTED II Y THE PEOPLE OF OREGON. It is supposed to bo n learned, able, disinterested presentation of an Im portant matter nnd is commondod editorially. But gazo behind tho scono with us and nek a few whys and whoroforcs. Tho lawyer-politician who deliv ered that address, and ho is nblo in both fields, Is THE SALARIED AD VOCATE OF A LARGE CORPORA TION. Thnt la no crlmo, but that Is not all. Tho corporation that hires him has boon Us direct legislation. THE GREAT PORTLAND MORN ING NEWSPAPER HIDES THAT FACT. It commcnilH IiIh argument. Hut it- conceals his Interest. IT HIDES HIS MOTIVE. By so doing it deceives its readers. Tho Grangers of Oregon Initiated a law to tax tolograph, tolophono nnd oxpross companies on their gross enrnlngs. ALSO TO TAX THE STANDARD OIL AND PULLMAN SLEEPING ' CAR COMPANIES. THAT LAW WAS ENACTED. Those corporations baud together to roRlst and defeat payment of this tax and lilro this lawyor to "plead their case. Thoy havo a perfect light to do this. Thoy aro carrying their suit to do feat tho Direct Legislation amond mont to tho Supremo Court of tho United States. I THEY HAVE A PKIIFKOT RIGHT TO DO THAT ALSO. j nut why deceive tho pooplo by con-( coaling tho facts, tho interests, tho motives of tho lawyor who presents tho argument? WHY NOT TELL THE PEOPLE THIS IS THE HIRED ATTORNEY OK THE INTERESTS WHO IS SPEAKING? Instead of palming it off on tho unsuspecting pooplo of Oregon ns learned logal loro, why not toll thorn THIS IS ROTTEN ROT, PAID FOR RY THE PULLMAN PALACE CAR COMPANY AND JOHN 1). ROCKE FELLER.' Thoso corporations could novor bo taxed on thoir gross earnings by a legislature. HUT THE PEOPLE FOUND A WAY TO REACH THEM. So the HyHtom of 1)1 root I.egUlH Hon limit bo battered down.

Tho gross earnings tnx must bo dofentcd or tho Pullmans and Plntts and Rockefellers and Calhouns WILL HAVE TO PAY TO SUPPORT THE STATE GOVERNMENT. Direct Legislation Is dangerous to tho big interests. Tho people must bo deceived 111' THE MONOPOLISTIC ORGAN OF WHOLESALE DECEPTION. It would novor do to toll thorn that this address nttncklng Direct Legis lation was delivered by tho chief couiibcI of tho Interest8 attacked by Direct Legislation. THE PEOPLE ARE NOT FIT TO KNOW THE TRUTH, Is tho theory of tho chief organ of tho great bunko gamo of political Annnnlnslsm at Portland, Oregon. But tliero Is not so much Ignor ance among tho peoplo ns theso vo taries of tho predntory Intorcsts sup pose It is Just such conduct as this on tho part of a press monopoly thnt has compelled the peoplo to tnko tho legislative power into their own hands In Oregon. It is such deceptions nnd botrayals of public trust that haa DESTROYED CONFIDENCE IN OUR LEGISLA TURES. Tho peoplo said, Our representa tives will not placo taxation whore it belongs. AVE WILL DO A LITTLE TAX ING OURSELVES. WE WILL NOT DEAR ALL THE BURDENS. Henco tho organs of tho Interests cry down this system, and seek to establish tho Idea that such legisla tion by tho peoplo Is dangerous and unconstitutional. But tho people of Oregon know how hclploss they aro to secure Jus ttco In tho legislature and -tho fed oral courts. THEY KNOW THAT THE LEG IS LATURES AND CONGRESS AND THE FEDERAL COURTS ARE THE HIDING PLACES OF CORPORA TIONS. Tho pooplo know that thoy havo little or nothing to expect from tho hlghoBt supremo court. But tho court that once uphold slavery, that dofoatod tho Incomo tax law, THAT SET ASIDE THE STAND ARD OIL DECISION, thoro Is llttlo to hopo from tho last court of ap peals. Tho pooplo will wait tho outcomo of tho litigation against tho gross corporation tax In Oregon In tho meantime thoy should bo spared any further practlco of decoptlon, Lot us havo loss masquerading. o . .METHODS THAT SHOULD HE EXPOSED. THE TIM13 HAS COME FOR AC TION. Tho growth of tho city and tho growth of tho Stato Fair allko mako It necessary. The only road to tho fair grounds Is occupied with a strcot car lino and in soino places la lesa than twonty feet wido. Handling ton to twonty thousand peoplo a day over such a atroot Is dangeious to human llfo. The Stato Fair Is an Institution that Is entitled to CONSIDERATION AT THE HANDS OF THE COM MUNITY. When tho Stato Fair board holds its anuunl mooting hero oarly In Do comber a plan fur tho construction of that boulevard should bo ready to submit. This city should not look to tho county or to tho stato to construct that boulovard or it will novor bo done. That strcot Is ontlroly within tho city and no Improvement WILL BENEFIT THIS CITY AS MUCH AS THAT WILL. Tho commlttco on streets, the street commissioner, tho city council, tho Board of T-fulo, tho Business Men's League, overy ono should got busy. Wo owe It to ourselves and to tho enterprising State Fair board to build that Btreet and bulldt It RIGHT AWAY AND WITHOUT MUCH CEREMONY. If wo nro to keop paco as a city with tho growth of tho Btato and the growth of tho Stato Fair, that Btreet should ho built regardless of exponso. Thoro Is enough brains, onorgy nnd booster spirit In tho Capital City to push that much-needed IMPROVE MENT THROUGH WITHOUT DE LAY. This city will mako a great and serious mistake If It does not meet tho Stuto Fair management more than half way In !: labors to mako tho Oregon Stato Fair a sourco of stato pride.

Albert, Cashier Tho old Portland machine is seek ing to dostroy tho DIroct Primary law nnd dofoat election of senators by Uio direct vote of tho peoplo.
