A FINANCIER AND A LICKSPITTEL
COLONEL GEOKGE HARVEY has
token it upon himself to prove that
the lato J. Picrp. Morgan, was a
true patriot, a lover of his country, a
humanitarian, philanthropic, and sort
of step father to tho country. Colonel
George has bitten off more than he can
hew. .1 he American people have Mor
gan and bis kind sized up, and probably
pretty correctly, and he is not sized up
an any of the things of which Colonel
George so generously accuses him.
Morgan was a great financier, with
all that the term Implies. To be a great
financier, to accumulate such a fortune
as Morgan accumulate, require the
stifling of all the bettor human emo
tions. Friendships must bo tramplod
upon, and the heart closod to all feel
ings of sentiment. Generosity, Liber
ality and Greed never yet Inhabited the
same human domicile. To bo a philan
thropist, a humanitarian and a patriot
requires above all olso unselfishness, To
be a financier all these traits must be
crushed out, trampled upon, and Mr.
Morgan was a financier. That Mr.
Morgan was a patriot, in a senso, is
probably true, but there aro all kinds of
patriots. A convict sont to Australia
from England, wroto touchlngly of his,
and his fellow convicts' patriotism,
saying:
"True patriots, we, for be it understood
We loft our country for our country's
good."
From a similar viewpoint Mr. Morgan
wns, perhaps, a patriot, or would he so
considered by such millionaires' lop
logs as Colonel Ooorgo Harvey, for
Morgan loved this country just as a
baby likes its bottle. The Unitod
States was a good mother to him, and
that he butted bor dugs to some pur
pose, is evldont from tho financial fat
ness of him. His motto wns r' America
is my gralnfield, to harvest Is my
duty," and so ho roaped with untiring
hand. Ihis is not written to attack
Morgan. Ho was what nature mode
him a financial genius, or grocdy hog,
just as one happens to select tho lan
guage to express tho fact, and Is not to
blnmo for following Inherent instinct.
Hnrvey is not so blameless, and yet fol
lowing the same chain of reasoning,
perhaps ho wns born a lickspittle, in
stead of achieving that condition, and
so, can't help himself.
OrriCES AND BEX.
WOMK.V being made voters are, of
course, entitled to hold office,
not heeniiso they aro women, but
because they are citizens and legal vol
ers. No sooner, however, Is the ballot
given tli'in, than the demand is made
that they be given "proper roprosontn
tion" In tho official fold. That thev
should aspire to office is proper enough,
but they should bo selected for office,
not on account of sex, but as a matter
of luting tho nioro able and efficient
person.
American citizenship Is composed of
all the Caucasian races, and the negro,
tho latter as an Indirect sequence of
mistaken early day policies ami the
change of our government from partly
slave owning to an all free system. If
the Idea advanced tlmt women, just be
cause they are women, nro entitled to a
certain proportion of offices, then It
should follow that our political system
be changed, that the German, English,
Irish, Spanish, Scandinavian, be given
offices according to the proportion the
voter of those nationalities bear to
tho total vote. The negro should, by
tho samo rule, be given nt least a cab
inet position, owing to his numbers. To
carry out tho Idea, with suffrage made
gouoral and women being half the vot
ers, it would be propor to insist that
either the president or vice-president be
a woman. Thore may be a time when
a woman will fill the presidential chair,
and if the woman with the necessary
ability comes to the front, thoro is no
reason why this should not happen, but
when it does, it should not be because
she is a woman, but in spite of it. It is
right and proper for women to seek,
and hold office, simply bocauso they aro
now aB much responsible for the run
ning of the government in all its
branches from president down to con
stable, (s tho men have been heretofore.
THOSE AUTOMATIC SWITCHES.
PttEMDENT STRAIIORN, of the P.
E. & K., expects to go east some
time this summer, for the especial
purposo of having the board of direc
tors take up tho matter of putting auto
matic switches in the company's street
car lines here. This will be appreciated
by tho3 whoso corns have learned to
hang over the side of tho car in agoniz
ing suspense, while the conductors wild
ly grab for the pendant toad Btabbers

that ornament tho rear ends of tho cars

and there is even talk of taking steps
to rovoke tho company's franchise It

this one respect it is not paying what
it owes. Tho good will of tho public is
a valuable asset to any public utility

IS BRUTAL AS MURDER.
CAljIf'OHNlA has- placed a law on
her statute books tlmt should be
implicated ly every stato in tho
Union, oud thnt is making tho destruc
tion of food unlawful. It scorns that
tho mercenary middlemen of Sun Fran-
isco, by mutual arruugement, destroy
ed certain food products, when they be
came too plentiful, in order to keep tho
prices op, finding it nioro profitable to
do this than to handle tho products at
lower prices,
The only fault with tho California
law is that tho penalty is not made se
vere enough. Tho dest ruction of food
supplies is a criuio against tho world,
and a crime, tho effects of which aro
most deeply felt by tho very poor. One
can scarcely iiiiHgino a human being so
depraved as to deliberately deprive the
poor and needy of tho food provided
by our generous old mother earth, and
for the solo purpose of increasing their
own finunclal gains. A life sentouce,
if necessary to stop tho practice, would
be none too great, for it is next door
to numb r, and murder committed for
the purpose of robbery, at that.
X-RAYS AND SMILES.
A monkey in Chicago has been
taught to steal gems. This shows that
oven a money can be contaminated by
cmoing in contact with the modem

The opening of the fonith close post
offices to tho hungry hordo is some

it giving way. Tho result is the same,
as tho flood comes in cither case.
The evidence of Jack Johnson's de
pravity becomes stronger daily. Yes-
miles northwest of Enterprise. The
coroner's jury found his death was due
to "falling from a horse, exposure and
other causes." What these other
causes were could not be ascertained,
but it was certain that he died all
alono in the big woods, and that there
was no foul play.

A WONDERFUL TONIC
THAT AIDS DIGESTION
Thousands are unable to digest
certain kinds of food. In most cases
it Is not the fault of tho food, nor
the stomach. It Is probable that the
stomach has been abused. Many re
sort to predlgested foods and various
kinds of medicines to get relief from
dyspepsia, indigestion and heartburn,
but without permanent benefit
If your stomach was in perfect
cendttion, you would not need medi
cine to digest the foods you eat.
Jayne's Tonlo Vermifuge Is a stomach
regulator. It gets the stomach In
such a condition that It will digest
food without other assistance. It
overcomes the acidity and stimulates
the coating of the stomach and In
testines so that they will properly
absorb and assimilate the nutriment
from the food eaten. Sufferers from
dyspepsia and indigestion will find
permanent relief In a short time af
ter beginning the use . of the tonic.
For children the addition of a little
sugar will make It most palatable.
Many forms of supposed Indiges
tion are the result of Intestinal par
asites, for which Jayne's Tonlo Ver
mifuge is unsurpassed. Insist upon
Jayno's; accept no other. Millions
have praised It for more than 80
ears. Sold by druggists everywhere.

The great calamity in Omaha was
quickly overshadowed by the terribly
disastrous floods in Ohio. Great suffer

Tar Compound helped to alleviate. L.
Foole, 2217 California St., Omaha,
writes: "My daughter had a seven

Tar Compound knocked it out in no
time. My wife would not keep house
without it. We have used it for years,

BIG SURPRISE TO MANY
IN SALEM
Local peoplo are surprised at the
QUICK results received from simple
buckthorn bark, glycerine, etc., as :
mixed in Adler-i-ka, the German rem-,
ody which became famous by curing
appendicitis. J. C. Perry states that
this simple remedy antlseptlclzes the
digestive system and draws off the lm- j
purities so thoroughly that A SINGLE ,
DOSE relieves sour stomach, gas on
the Btomach and constipation IN
STANTLY.
This Interests Every Woman.
A family doctor said recently that
women come to him thinking thnt they
have femalo trouble, but when he treats
them for their kidneys and bladder,
they soon recover. This is worth know
ing, and also that Foley Kidnoy Pills
are the best and safest medicine at such
times. You cannot get bettor, purer
medicine for backache, irregular kidney
and bladder action and nervousness duo
to kidney troubles. Try them. They
are tonic in action, quick in results.

If government is really as important

ily swerved from what lie believes to
