HnlsbOro Argus: III there are any
veteran soldiers VINO are deserving
OF pensions it is that surviving body
OF Indian war veterans which fought
the pioneer battles Of our western
commonwealth. These men are now
growing old aud some are nearly desti-
tute. Their warfare was OF the ma
ture that required constant vigil and
eyer-present hardship. Our Oregon
delegation should press this affair be-
fore congress and do all in its power
to get a special bill through for the
relief Of our Indian war veterans.

In an argument against the civil SER
vice merit system the Statesman says;
Take the Chemawa Indian training
school, near Salem. The superlntend-
ent there is not allowed to select even
his clerk, keeping his accounts, for
the faithful performance Of whose
duties he is under heavy DO nds. "
The education of Indian boys and
girls to be good citizens, good mechan-
les, good farmers, and good business
people, has nothing to do with poll

The belief that Mr. Cleveland wants
To be the Democratic candidate in
1900 is prevalent among Democrats in
Congress, and also that his New York
speech was his first move in that d.
rection. Speaking on the subjet Rep
resentatiye Richardson, Of Tenn,
said: GAS soon as he was out Of Office
before a plan Of campaign was orga-
nized in his behalf. Although his
nomination seemed TO the result #
popular wave in his favor the fact is
that sentiment for him was adroitly
stimulated by articles in the country
press and by literature sent by mail,
both emanating from headquarters
in New York. His friends had plenty
Of money and the same organization
is at his disposal today"

All will breathe easier and exper-
ience a relief when Durrant is dis
posed Of. The murder Of two young
ladies in a church, of which they were
members Of the young peoples So
clety, is a horrible stain upon our So
cial life. The freedom Of intercourse
between young men and women
at all church societies is a
typical feature Of American life, but
not yielding the most satisfactory
results from a moral standpoint. Let
US get through with Durrant and let
us learn to apply the lesson TO be
learned.
