TIE 0REG0NIAN AND STANFORD
UNIVERSITY.

The Oregonian denounces as "a pluto
cratic establishment the university
founded by the late Senator Stanford,
and in Language more emphatic than
dignifed, roasts the founder and the
school. AS to how Senator Stanford ac-
quired his wealth, we know very little,
and we think the Oregonian knows no
more than we. If Stanford had been a
Portland, instead of California, capi-
talist, the methods by which he e'acquired
his wealth would have concerned the
OIegonian very little, particularly had
he chanced to own block of its stock.
It is not because Stanford acquired
his means by speculation with other
peoples money, or by questionable
methods, that the Oregonian utters this
Rrowl, for some of its friends, toward
whom it is quite obsequious, acquired
their wealth by the same methods; it is
not because the school is not good one

because honest or moral people do not
respect the school that this pure journal

The article referred to is not becoming

The nominations made by the city

Office men who have occupied these re-
spective offices for some time. and who
are familiar with the duties required of
them. The ward nominations will give
us two as good water commissioners

have heretofore served the city in public

we may not now look for careful and
economical administration of the city e

be surprised.

THE MEMPHIS CONVENTION.

The most desirable result of the silver
convention at Memphis. which has just
adjourned, will be the establishment of
new party, whose one doctrine is free
coinage of silver. 1t will be refuge to
many discontents in both the demo-
cratic and republican parties, and if we
are not mistaken, will demonstrate the
fact that outside of those who are di-
rectly interested in the sale of silver,
there are few sincere 16 to 1 silver men.
We hope the new party will be
formed.

During the recent session OF the

Tor gold there is but limited nu-
misinatio demand, and tho supply is
Greatly in excess of chat demand. The

$500 All gold dollars are ut pre-
Mum and worth from $1.20 to $1.4O

Tho bulk Of numismatic transactions
are in silver coins. A dollar of 1904

brings $40, and quarter Of 1927 de-
inan3s $40. The dime of 1904 is tho
most valuable, being worth $40, and
this half dime of 1902 easily holds the
record at $63. A largo copper cont
Of 1913 would bring $25, and half

Row They Died.

Take a walk through our ceme-
tories and you pass the last rest
ing place of the man who blew in
to a gun to see if it was loaded.
A little further down the hillside
is buried the crank who tried to
see how close he could pass to a
moving train. In strolling about
you pass the modest monument of
the hired girl who started the fire
with kerosene, and the grass COW
cred knoll that covers what is left
Of the boy that put a corn cob
under mules tail. The tall shaft
of the man who blew out the gas
casts a shadow across the bosom of
the boy who tried to jump NOV
ing railroad train. Side by side
the ethereal creature who always
had her corset laced to the last
hole and the Intellectual idiot who
rode bicycle nine miles in ten
minutes, sleep on undisturbed.
Here reposes the remains OF the
young doctor who took a dose of
his own medicine, and just over
there with the top of a shoe box
driven down by his head, lies a
rich old man who married young
wife. Away over by the side gate
reposes the remains OF the boy
that went fishing on Sunday and
the old woman that kept her
strychnine side by side with her
baking powder in the cupboard.
The man who stood in front of the
moving machine TO oil the sickle
is quiet now, and be rests by the
side of the careless brakeman who
fed himself to a seventy-ton en-
gine. The fool.killer is gathering
them in one by one, still he is
sometimes behind with his or
ders.

tected, and can take care Of them
selves.
Oklahoma is beyond the Indian
country, and is not as rich nor as
fertile, and is not as susceptible of
sustaining as dense population as
the Indian country. If the Indian
can get his property rights proper
ly protected now he ought to seek
an opportunity to accept citizen
ship and agree to the allotment of
the lands. Non-citizens of the In.
dian country, | think, are practic-
ally unanimous for statehood or a
territorial government.
The officers and those who con-
troll the Indian governments are,
of course, opposed to it. There is
but little question that the great
body of Indians want their lands
in severalty. If you could get at
them in the quiet of their humble
homes and wigwams they would
tell you that they prefer American
statehood to tribal government.
Now, | have said about all that
| desire to say on the general sub
ject. | am not here to obstruct
the passage of this bill. On the
co ntrary, if did not believe its
passage would delay statehood |
would support it, if amended in
some respects. In presenting the
views | entertain touching the con.
ditions in the Indian Territory j
have endeavored to be iair, and !
ask the house to consider them
without reference to the fate oI
this bill. think it is the duty oil
congress to see that the flag of the
United States, and it alone, shall
float over every part of our com
mon country; that the tribal gov.
ernments shall be promptly anC
completely abolished; that these
absurd, undemocratic and unre
publican, and antiquated ideas o
common inheritance be foreve
uprooted.
Let us by proper and speedy
legislation wipe out all of the ter
ritorial governments by admitting
them into the union as sovereign
states, settling forever the ques
ton of the number of states tha
shall 20 stitute the American un
ion. An objection is sometime
urged by some OF our western
friends who say they are unwillin
to support the single statehoo
idea because they want two states

to note that in the years that have
gone by and are going by, mighty
transformation has been constantly
going on. That which would have
beeh considered first class ten
years ago, would fall far below me.
dium at the present. The people
are gradually coming to a higher
standard, and society is constantly
demanding more and yet more of
its votaries. The schools and the
churches have been the great leav-
ening influences that have quietly
and slowly, but surely, been at
work, always demanding higher
idols. Those who few years ago
were representative men of the
town have some how or other been
set aside. and others of a higher
standard Of morality have taken
their places. Time was when men
could 90 down into the slime and
mire Of drunken stupidity, and lie
in the filth of our cutters, or black
guard and profane in the presence
Of our wives and children, yet pose
as laciors in the political and moral

If Judge Parker's trip to Wash
ington and his advice to congress
in territory matters should result
in Fort Smith and Paris courts
losing territory jurisdiction, it
will show very plainly that the
judge hes overdid the matter and
caused reaction against the very
measure that he was trying to fos.
ter. Not content with making
statements that he could not prove,
he rushed into assertions that
could easily be disproved agains,

and just judge but way off when
it comes TO statistics of the Indian

The question that is uppermost
in the minds of the American peo-
pie just now seems to be that of
the currency. There are probably
few people who thoroughly under
stand the question, but fewer still
who are not willing to give an
opinion. The prospect now is
that more bonds will be issued
shortly. A lot of bonds are issued
to keep up the gold reserve, and
sold for gold whieh is drawn out of
the treasury for the purpose of
paying for the bonds. If the gov
ernment's credit is good for the
bonds we do not see what use there
is in issuing them at all, as it
would be just as good for treasury
notes issued for the purpose of
tidin2 over the present bankrupt
condition OF the country. What is
the use of a gold reserve if it is to
be made the plaything of bond
brokers who use it to increase
their hold on the wealth of the
nation? The gold kings seem to
have the upper hand of us just
now, however, but the time may
come when their rule will be at an
end, and the nation be governed
in righteousness. There is a limit
even to the patience of the Amer
lean people.
