They will not scatter their voto at the dictation of reactionists on president or on United States senator in Oregon. The big machine guns are all out, the men who love plunder better than principle, are on the trail for results. The struggle in Oregon has been long and hard, and the men who have only the privilege of voting will consider well their vote. On the final vote they will be found together on great issues like president and United States senator and not scattering much. It is a well-known principle of the ruling powers and, the big interests to get results by divisions of the opposition. But the lines have been too Bharply drawn ,the issues are too clear, and in the end the uncertain will divide. Well-informed progressive voters are not firing blank cart ridges, nor throwing away their guns. Bryan joins with the Republican machine politician in de nouncing Roosevelt. But T, R. is something of a steam roller himself. .--o- FINANCING LAND MONOPOLY. ' Mr. Davidson, operating with Mr. Hill, of St. Paul, the railroad magnate, has been at Ontario, Malheur county, "financing land." He says they are ready to finance any kind of a plan to get people onto the land to make it produce. In the first, place the arid, barren desert lands are sold at from $25 to $100 per acre to the settler. Then there is to be an annual charge of $16 to $24 per acre for pul ting the water on the land for crops. Counting the interest on the investment one ljundred acres of this land at even $.r0 per acre would put a fixed charge on the settler of $2000 a year. This would bo only for water and Interest, and tho settler would have to make taxes and a living besides. If only half the 400,000 acres in their road land grant' could 1x3 settled up thpy would have an Income from it of four million dollars annually. But all this only illustrates the impossibility of settling people on these lands on the land finance monopoly plan. Tho biggest Chinese wall shutting out the settlement of Oregon Is land, monopoly the enormous blocks of capital-grabbed lands. o THE PROBLEM OF THE WORN OUT HORSE. Here's a problem that deserves much from our humane socie ties, a more serious consideration than is commonly given it. We meet the "old horso" everywhere, on streets, in public and private sale stables, out on the country highway, leing led or driven to some place where a dollar may be made out of him. Tho men are legion who traffic In these exhausted and decrepit Bcrvants of mankind. With such dealers there is seldom any compassion. They can starve and neglect one of these patient .long-suffering beasts of burden apparently without a sting of con science. One way, though not a very good one, Is to offer five dollars apiece for them. This is to be imposed upon over and over again, unless you are on the spot and have your wits about you. It Is even to be f wiled sometimes into paying for dead horses that Is, if they are not cleverer than the cunning trader. A far letter way would be to bend every effort toward a law permitting tho agents of humane societies to forbid the sale of these wornout horse at private sale, as now they can at public auction. Much of this traffic is carried on in private stables and amid conditions that make it difficult of detection. Many of these old.hopses are doctored with drugs which tem porarily brighten them up. Tho unsuspecting and Ignorant buyer finds in a few hours that what ho paid $15 or $.10 for Isn't worth one. Tho best law for meeting this situation alxmt which we know Is that In force in Pennsylvania, which makes it "unlawful for any owner to offer for sale, or to noil any horse which, by rea son of debility, disease or lameness, or for any other cause, could not be worked In this commonwealth without violating the laws against cruelty to animals." This law has worked splendidly in Pennsylvania, and if every plate had one as good a vast deal of this wretched business carried on In these tired-out veterans could be stopped. Meanwhile we plead with all who havo some faithful horse whoso value has dropped down to less than $100, to have him hu manely destroyed, ij they have no longer any use for him. Do not sell him to become the victim of some heartless deal er; that would be to be guilty of an act of treachery and tin kindness some day to bo answered for before high heaven. -o FOR A MORE BEAUTIFUL SALEM. At tho recent Six O'clock Club dinner a paper was read by Vvnt ga, L. Schreiber on art as a community asset, A cnmmitU'a was linmcd to propane plans for general beau tifying of the Capital City along artistic lines. The committee is composed of Prof. Schrciber, E. T. Barnes and Dr. Patterson, and they are considering the matter. All progressive modern cities are adopting some plan of gen eral improvement from a municipal standpoint for beauty. The great Portland municipal plans are being published at an expense of ten thousand dollars, and will add millions to the wealth of the city. A tx'autiful plan for citv building will add more to the value of pnwrty than any other influence. The movement should be promoted by everv possible means, and tho whole community should be got back of It.
