EDITORIAL.

Dr. Richardson, as mayor, is The
last man who ought TO jump onto any
one on account OF "pap." He get'
more pap than any physician in Sa.
lem. The bill 10 create the Office Of
consulting visiting physician was put
through and the place occupied by
Richardson at 1920 a year-a mere
sinecure, until IL was learned the bill
never had become a law and was cut
OF by Secretary OF State Kiucuid.
While the money was drawn illo-
gally and the service rendered was
merely a. nominal one, Rlchardson'hts
never offered 10 refund tins pap TO
the taxpayers We vi not say the
money which the city has lost In the
Williams & England bank has Injured
u Richardson's benefit But he Is
sild to be a $4,000 stakeholder, one
half OF which Is paid 10y his note for
5000, which the bank hol sas unctl-
lectable assets. Under the Law bis
stock would be liable for 500, bit
he is said TO be executiUn-prouf, lis
property here not being in his "
name, and the lands owned by him in
Eastern Oregon being Of no value. So
the city cannot hope 20. get back
the pap that went to the
bank. IL is unpleasant 70
discuss these matters, but the mayor
descended To "a personal attack on
this newspaper and used his oficial
position TO lnlure this newspaper aud
It's business, when IL was In the public
interest and In support OF his own
message that this paper discussed
public affairs. No pap" has been
given this newspaper by the city
council. IL bid for the city adyertls-
ing at a very low rate and got It with
no thanks 10 the mayor, or TO any
political party, but in accordance
with the business practice OF the
council, established before Richard
son took tile mayors chair. The city
council has no occasion To take lessons
In good business management at
Richardson's hands. IL has never
stopped 10 80 low an act as 90 strike
at a business firms contract for per
sonal or political malice. The last
man On earth TO cry pap should be
Pap" Richardson. THE JOURNAL
would like % see this city administra-
ton do two things; 1. IL should put
the city In a first-class sanitary con-
dltion. The streets and alleys and
vacant lots should be kept in such
condition AS not 10 breed diseases.
The sewerage, vaults, stables aud
back yards should be subject TO in-
spectIon aud regulation such AS
health, law aud order demand. II
there Is no ordinance 20 accomplish
the decent cleanliness and sanitation
OF the capital city let such an ordl-
nance be enacted. .. IL should put
our inances In order 80 that the war
rants issued should be legal. The
credit demands this, There
should be no Illegal city paper out
standing, There should be no city
money where II cannot be obtained

one Corbett. 1t proved to be a private
pension.

sion, nominations for foreign embas-

gan speaking on the treaty, opposing

tone and honesty OF the government
We. the people Of the United States
have the most honest government In
the world. Il is and has been Tor many
years more honest than ever before
aud Is to-day more honestly and ei.
dcflcntly administered than any prl.
waite business that ! have ever exam.
lned. I mean that there Is less vast,
and less defalcation.
Look at the great postal service. toI
instance. Where In the world will you
ind any private agency which does q
much and does Il 30 well. and at 80 10.
tie cost And change Of parties make.
no difference. Thorough honesty &.
the rule
Tho atmosphere OF the white hous,
is pure beyond that Of any royal resi-
dcnce. aud this is the most moral anJ
