It placed him in nomination for president as against all the crooked methods of machine politics of the past. He showed that the national committee had reversed the verdict of the people in the twenty Republican primary states. That is, in the twenty northern Republican states where the people had a direct vote, they declared for progress. In those twenty northern Republican states that form the backbone of the Republican party the voters repudiated Taft. He sliowed that Taft was to be nominated by the delegates from the southern states and stolen delegates from northern BtcltCS. The speech was the greatest utterance against the crookedness of politics, as it has been practiced in the past, ever uttered. It strikes a high note for cleaner and better methods and a purer concept of public affairs and brands bossiRm and overrul ing the expressed will of the people as a national crime against popular government which the people must punish. On this issue Roosevelt will be nominated, and there is only one place for clean, decent and progressive citizens to take their stand. THE FIGHT ON THE With its increasing circulation and popularity and growing in fluence with the people, the corrupt elements in our public af fairs are putting up a bitter fight against The Capital Journal. Space has been hired in a local newspaper to vilify and blacken the character of the owner and editor of The Capital Journal, and he is asked to sue for libel if he does not like it. In nearly twenty-five years that the editor of this paper has lived in this community he has fought for good government and for the best possible conditions morally and politically. This work has been done without fear or favor, and has al ways drawn the fire of the corrupt elements of all parties who have in various ways tried to cripple and destroy The Capital Journal. . They have always failed, and always will fail when The Capi tal Journal is right and has the support of the people, and it has had that support in the past, and has it today, and is stronger than ever. The Capital Journal does not seek power for personal pur poses, and has never used its power and influence for personal gain or for the impoverishment or injury of persons or person al interests. It will continue to be that kind of a newspaper in spite of all the detraction and abuse and false and libelous matter that can be published in hired space in local or any other newspaper. THE HOME LABOR ORDINANCE. The city council passed, under suspension of the rules, and in rapid-fire order, the home labor ordinance. That ordinance was pnssed by unanimous vote of the coun cil, which shows that they consider it just and right. The amendment of the ordinance, which we have not seen, may make it unacceptable to the laborers of the city. The claim that contractors are also under bond to the city, i3 good, if it covers this proposition. But the home labor amendment was on the books of the laws of the city since last'Demember and was a dead letter. The penalty of five hundred dollars for violation of this home labor ordinance was struck out in the city council. It may be necessary to restore that penalty to make the ordi nance effective, and that matter is to be considered. The ordinance as passed will be taken up by the labor organi zations and investigated as to its legal strength. The labor organizations had this ordinance drawn up by a competent lawyer, who drew it up so it could be enforced. ( , LOOK OUT FOR THE TAX JOKERS. , The people are warned against the tax jokers that ,are con tained in the taxation reform bills. Twice in the past twenty years has the tax collecting ma chines been worked for the interest of graft. Once by a special session of the legislature was a blunder made that stopped all collection of taxes. Then the people were financed by the big Fortland banks and every dollar of millions of warrants drew interest. Again by a hold-up of the legislature was the whole expense of state and county government carried on credit. For two years the millions of state and county revenues drew interest, and many of the warraants were discounted. A new taxation system can be held up in the courts, and if declared unconstitutional no levy can be made. This is the danger.of the graduated land and corporation tax, .advocated bv the single tnxers. It looks like double and special taxation of interests that are selected because they are "large." Now the large interests can always get into the courts, state and federal, and sometimes have their way. When they do they slop all collection of taxes, and state, coun ty and city and school districts run on tick for two years. In the interim the big financiers lend the money to the state and city and county and school districts, and reap a harvest. Whether the tax reformer is working a graft of this kind and is in the pay of the big Portland financiers or not is a ques tion. 1 TAFT I HIS EAR TO THE WIRES IS (IETTIXO FULL REPORTS IN THE EXECUTIVE OFFICES 1IITI1 AI I'M 11 FHS OF HIS FAM ILY A!U FRIENDS CI A T II E It F D AROUND III.

Donaldson was appointed watchman for the bridge at a salary of $90 a month. One third of this will be paid by Polk county, one-third by Marlon and the other third by the city. His business will be to regu late traffic and preserve the bridge until such a time when the city and the two counties will be In a position to construct a new one. The street committee will hold two meetings during the week for the pur pose of discussing Improvements on Division and Fir streets. For the dis cussion of the Improvement of the first named street a meeting will be held In the city hall Thursday even lng ,and Friday evening a meeting will be held In the same hall to dis cuss Improvements on Fir street. The mayor and recorder were au thorized to sign a three-year lease for a strip of land adjoining the city hall belonging to Mrs. Ellen White. The land Is necessary as an entrance by the firemen to the city hall. By a motion passed, the city sani tary Inspector Is to be made hereaf ter special police officer. The health and police committee to which was referred the matter with relation to the bowling alley In the Hotel Oregon building submitted Its report It declared It a nuisance, and recommends that it be put under the vigilant eye of the chief of police un til the present license expired, and recommended that when It did that no new license be granted. Those pre ferring complaints against the bowl ing alley charged that It was annoy ing and disturbing the tenants of the building by Its noise. A petition asking for the Improve ment of Cottage street between State nnd Ferry was referred to the street committee. A petition asking for the Improvement of Oak street was grant ed. The request of the Cherry Fair committee that It be given nil money for licenses for concessions during the fair was granted. Gideon Stolz appeared before the council and asked that the ctly be ap propriately decorated during the G. A. R. encampment, and a motion was made and carried to use money be longing to the mayor's funds to make the decorations. Councilman Rlgdon ana councilman White were made a committee to make the decorations. LABORING 'MEN RESIDING HERE Without a dissenting vote the city council last night passed an ordi nance prepared by the laboring men of the city, which provides that ' nil contracts for public works shall In sert in their contracts a clause that resident laboring men Bhall be given preference over non-residents for employment Having an eye for the legality of the measure, City Attorney Page changed Its phraseology so as to com ply with the city charter on the sub ject and also eliminated that provision of It requiring that the contractor should give a bond of $!i00 for the faithful performance of the contract. All contractors are now required to give bonds, and the clause asking for the additional bond would be con strued as but surplusage, he declared. The measure Is stringent so string ent that, should resident laborers ap ply to a contractor, who has In his employ non-resident laborers, the contractor would be compiled lo dis charge them and hire the resident la boring men. Mayor Lachmund announced the ap pointment of Dr. 11. L. Steeves to suc ceed Mrs. A. N, Push on the library board.

The horse editor suggests that, with the negroes holding the balance of power In the Chicago convention, Jack Johnson is an ideal dark horse. It Is not astonishing that a negro should be bought by a politician? For a hundred years they were sold all right, but they did not get the money themselves. Negroes from tho Southern states hold the balance of power In the Re publican national convention, and will name the candidate, or one of them, for whom the people will be permit ted to vote. It Is claimed money Ib being used to Influence them, so that the great American public, Instead of the politicians, will be represented. Now then let us all go Into our sanc tuaries and humbly thank God that the country Is safe and that we are permitted to follow our peaceful vo cations under the old flag In a free country, where no form of despotism can ever Intrude, and where one man Is as good as another and better, too. The political situation at Chicago is explained by that old bit of dog gerel: You can and you can't You shall and you shan't You will and you won't You'll be d d If you do And be d d If you don't Tomorrow may decide which way the coons will Jump, Heney Is enjoying it. "Anything to be In the limelight" Is the slogan of that eminent four-flusher.
