MITCHELL'S PoPULISM.

Senator Quay remarked suggestively
that the Oregon senator should not
push his resolution, for there might be
developments in his state, which
would assist the theory of the resolu-
ti0n, 80 that little delay might aid
its prospects.
The above paragraph appeared in
our news columns, on the occasion of
Senator Mitchell's calling up his
amendment to the constitution to
have senators chosen by direct vote of
the people.
The'Senators do not seem to treat
seriously the Senator's populistic in
clinations. They made fun of him in
the senate right to his face.
OF course, if four years hence the
Republican national convention de-
clares against election of senators by
direct vote of the people, Senator Mi
tchen will take the stump against his
own proposition just as he did against
silver.

A fearless Iowa man in resnonse to

A fearless Iowa man in response to
the toast, "Peerless Iowa." at a Des
Moines political banquet rather took
the hide off of state pride by showing
in peerless manner that all the state
institutions are over crowded and
that Iowa in some respects is far be-
hind Missouri and Nebraska, the
homes of Democracy and Populism.
This lawyer that spoke is a Republi-
can but he told some hard facts. His
name is Odell and he halls from the
northeast part of the state that pro-
duced Governor Larrabee and where
there is great deal of healthy inde-
pendent political sentiment. Odell is
a man of ability and would make
good governor.

THE SALEM HOG.

Prosperity has struck Salem, at
least in spots. The Marion county
Jail is situated about one mile and a
half from the penitentiary, with
street cars running direct from one
institution TO the other. IL costs the
county IS 80 to convey prisoner
from iail to the pen, that Is, the
sheriff gets So, guard SO, and hack
! $3.50. At a recent session of the cir
cult court, Judge Burnett sentenced
nine prisoners to the penitentiary,
and it took nine days to get them
there, costing s76.5o. The sheriff
says the law allows him these fees
| and he will take them. In very rare
cases is it necessary to have a guard
or assistant to escort a prisoner to tshe
pen in Salem, and the fare is bdt five
cents on the cars, and the nine could
have been taken TO prison in a couple
of hours with tie assistance of one
deputy sheriff if needed. Another
prosperous business is the publishing
oftde delinquent tax list, the mini
mum price for which is fifty cents per
line, charged to the taxpayers. The
last tax list made 1868 lines. The
Salem hog has got its snout in pretty
deep just now.-Portland Tribune.
AS the Tribune says, the sheriff of
Marion count is prosperous. His COM
peusation of 5000 to 800 a month
comes out of the taxpayer AS deputy
for four years this same man did per-
form these same services for frem $50
to 800 a month.
But I'HE JOURNAL does not object |
to an official taking his salary or even |
full legal fees in addition so long as it |
is the law. The law is pernicious that |
allows such fees, or any fees in ad-
dition to salary. What people will |
censure Mr.. Wrightman for is taking
of his position in these
hard times, or at any time, to unnec-
essarily and unjustly swell his fees and
increase the burden of expense on the
taxpayer. If he maintains this policy
FOR his first term not a corporal's
guard, outside of those he hires, will
ever support him again for sheriff.
THE JOURNAL supported the legisla-
tive and county Republican ticket at
.he June election, because taken as a
whole they were creditable set of
Mr.. Wrightman received
,he smallest vote of any successful
candidate. He is a young man and
While he is admitted to be competent
a every way, the manifestation of an
xtravagant disposition cannot be
olerated even among Republicans.

THE TACOMA NEWS.

A recent canvas of the households
of Tacoma shows that the Tacoma
Evening News has double the circu-
lation of both morning papers in that
city. The news is paper of charac-
ter and ability and not mere politic-
cal prostitute to crafty the desires
of individuals. The News is to be
congratulated on its success in main
tanning its character and reputation
for intelligence and veracity In the
whirlpool of conflicting interests of
low-grade politics from which latter
it must be difficult for any newspaper
or citizen with particle of self-re-
spect TO extract much satisfaction.
We would make only one change in
the policy of the News. We would
put the name OF the talented indi-
Yidual who is editor at the head of the
editorial page.

The inoffensive citizen was thinking
of a story he had read about footpadi

ever try to hold him up. The practical
Joker suddenly tipped the inoffensive
citizens hat over his eyes. The in
