PJUXT ALL SIDES FOR TjIE PEOPLE.
The Hood River Sun has this to say about one-sided partisan
newspapers :
It is time for the Oregon newspapers, regardless of their
political affiliations, to recognize the moral responsibilities
which rests upon them in preseiting the political news of the
country. I
Worse than the unfair, lop-sided partisan politics is the paper
that will not give both sides a hearing.
From the parti.-an sheet you expect nothing but partisanship,
to give the people information to give the peopl information
and news about all parties.
It believes the supporters of Taft, Roosevelt and Wilson and
Chapin and Debs, as well, are entitled tj courtesy and fair play.
The people, as a whole, are bigger than any part', and entitled
to fair play at the hands of the newspapers.
Editorially a newspaper should stanc for principles, but
should not dictate to its readers what they should believe or
who they should vote for.

THE PEOPLE AND THE MACHINE POLITICIANS.
j
The general principle has ken stated, over and over that the
machine spoils variety of politician has mo conviction or princi
ples when he scents the spoil's of office.
He is ruled by his appetite for plunder, and passion takes the
place of mwon as he plunges after the concrete results in the
shape of a place on the public payrolls. 1
In the so-called progressive or Bull Moorse convention, hsld
in this city, the technical machine politician swung their ma
chine clubs and ruled out the best men inlthe state.
Bourne, M ilkey. Olcott and others were kicked out of the Bull
ion by the lower type of grasping men who want
! . t will be available if Roosevelt should win.
1 enest political graft-chflsers in the state had a
't up to which men had to subscribe or be made
.- .' il to progressive principles.
,rn r.oliticinns are trying the same tactics in the de-
' l Marion county Republican ticket all sicn pledires
. Taft for the presidency.
' c regular Republican candidates nominated nt the regular
.c-publican primaries owe no allegiance t) any machine, but sup
port to the Republican party that nominated them, as a matter
of coorse. j
The tricks of the machine managers are based solely on their
desire to make a record of remilarity from the spoils standpoint
and get a claim on the postoffice at Salqm or some soft-handed
job.
This should not Interest the disinterested citizen one hair's
breadth, as efficiency in state offices, national offices and county
offices in what is desired and demanded by the taxpayer.
. The pretensp,f Intense party loyalty, whether it be on the
nnrt of a Bull Mooser or a stand-pat Republican, is only the mask
for the predatory Instinct that makes ga;ln out of loyalty.
Lot the people sit down on all such manifestations of the low
est and coarsest feature of our public affairs.
The Century Magazine for October has! a beautiful lot of Jap
anese pictures, some reproduced In color. This magazine also
presents President Taft's views on Socialism.

Editor Journal:
I am somewhat diffident about car
rylng on a squabble through the news
papers, but I trust that in fairness to
Prohibitionists, you will grant me
rpace In which to reply to the article
In last Friday's Journal, entitled,
"Prohibition and Socialism Discussed
and Compared." The writer of same
seemed very much wrought up about
some statements previously made In
cne of our Prohibition papers about a
Prohibition -Socialist debate. She
gives tho impression that the Social
ist speakers did not make all the
statements Just as we reported. Let
mo sny this. They were taken down
by an experienced stenographer, and
they aro absolutely correct, and Just
as given In the paper.
There In much In the Jumble of your
article that would not be understood
by the "hoi pollol " but several of
your points. I take leave to answer.
Your Socialist speakers, and you,
too, apparently, advocate temperance
as the cure for the liquor evil that
oiii, wornout cure of temperance. To
prove your point you quite Scripture
the common custom of all truly
modern booze defenders. It puts you
In the same class with Ex-Mayor
Hose of Milwaukee, who proved to his
satisfaction that of the whiskey men
w ho hired him, that the Dlble defends
nnd upholds the liquor traffic. Have
you never heard that even tho devil
fiultes Scripture to prove his nilt,i
ine question we debated stated spe-
iiuaiiy mat the liquor trafflo Is an
evil, nut you advocate "ternr-ran
for an evil and quote Scripture for It.
t judge that although you ar
canst, you Btui believe In the nible
a nce you quote from it several times.
i so. do you believ, that PauIi from
whom you llote or ,
would try to uphold and H,.fnn,i
Il'iuor traffic, and do you believe they
would advise us use "temperance"
with evils You know all nt. ,u.
depredations caused by the liquor
traffic you know they are all com
mitted by men and women who once
were "temperate" drinkers, and still
you quote Scripture to uphold the
temperate" use of liquor!
Again, you quote from K-rli,t.,
that "tho love of money Is the root of
an evil." Rut thU H. .
uui Mine
mi you socialists by vour ,hi
wm Kill that love. The average So-
ui.si oenttles his cause In that ho
falls to distinguish between the un
adulterated lve of money as exempli
'led by the, nlsr. and on M,., n,.
and the right and legitimate use of
"ipital which builds cities, throws a
railroad acrosa a continent, bridges
ohasma, and causes the desert to
bloom llko the rose. These nr.
things accomplished by the united of-
'ns or personal Initiative, labor and
capital.
You seem to uphold the i.lslnH.,n
of your debater to the effect that we
bdng curtailed. But no mere brain
ricts of antl-capltalism will do It The
economic questions ahead of us are
mot complex and puzzling. It will
take a nation of clear brains and
steady hands to solve them. Prohi
bitionists believe we must have a so
ber citizenship among other things, to
do the Job. With 10,000,000 "temper
ate or "moderate" drinkers and 3,
000,000 confirmed drunkards who arc
recruited from the "moderate" drink
ers and with a large part of these of
course voters, we hardly think we
have a sober nation for this great
task.
Most people believe In that higher.
theoretical Socialism, that "light that
never was on sea or land," though
many of them have little faith that we
will ever attain such a state. But
when Socialism simply raves aealnst
capitalism, when It permits despica
ble fungus growths to fasten upon It
self, when It howls for free speech
and refuses It to others, when It pub
lishes and endorses such literature
as was recently witnessed In Portland.
when its effect upon the majority of
Its followers is to make of them athe
ists and cynics, when It tears down
the glorious Sin rs nml SrrlT.no
which my father among thousands of
other fought.bled and gave his life I
say when these things are the visible,
every-day evidences of Socialism, I
certainly do not wish to become a nart
of it.
From this period I might proceed
nnd, after the Socialist custom, nreach
some party doctrine. Hut we are try
ing to do that by means of our little
paper Pacific Advance, and I shall
not Impose upon the good will of the
editor of the Capital Journal bv con
