Would it not be quite in ordel

Would it not be quite i'll order
and give the readers of oui
numerous exchanges a needed resi-
if they would let up about the
appointment of rich mems and
senator's SONS to positions in the
army? Why should not this class
receive recognition at the hands
of the government as we'll as any
other? Is it dishonorable to be
born to the purple? Many of our
exchanges have made it point
to unjustly, it seems to the GA
zETTE, criticise the motives Of
the president i'll giving any of the
class mentioned a chance to wear
the insignia of rank i'll the army.
These same men whom so much
has been said against have al
ready in this war exhibited fine
traits of heroisln and courage.
When the republic ignores the
of such of its subjects,
it will be necessary to revise our
code of ethics and our standard
of usefulness. |

THE RIGHT RING.

The sentiments expressed il
the resolutions adopted by the
Portland Chamber of Commerce
on the 29Nl of July, which will
be found III another column, are
timely, and touch a responsive
chord in the hearts of all citizens
on the Pacific slope, except
the pessilnists and mugwumps,
neither one OF which amount tc
anything in the administration oil
governments except to criticise
without mercy, to act as clogs on
all progressive movements, and
pharisaically to hold themselves
up as models of intelligent con-
servatism. Nothing in the way
of advancement has ever been
accomplished by either of their
class in national affairs, for the
former are SO cautious they will
not take one step ahead until
forced by all overwhelming pub
lie sentiment. The latter are
theoretical and not practical, and
have lost the respect of their
countrymen because of their con-
slant and never-ending prophecies
of dire disasters that will over
take the republic unless their
silly and Utopian schemes are
adopted by the people. This
class figure largely around state
and national convention halls,
clothed i'll the white duck of their
supposed immaculate purity and
traascendental Intelligence, peer
ing out of the lobbies always,
with theireycsrolled heavenward,
their hands clasped like an old
maids whel listening to some
neighborhood scandal, and an
attitude of platonic unselfshness,
warning the delegates of ilnme-
diate destruction if their senilc
injunctions are disregarded in the
of candidates and the
PRONUNCIATION of party principles.
To the alert citizen these reso-
lutions sound the keynote of the
new quickstep, the prelude of
which Dewey's guns at Manila
played, with all cllristendon for
An audience. We are all in line
and ready to march to this music
whenever and wherever duty
0oiuts the way.

no REASON WHT.

The Salem Journal is very
anxious to learn if Congressman
Tongue will spend his vacation
at Yaquina.
While the GAZETTE is not au-
tiiorlzed to speak for the honor
able gentleman, yet it feels safe
i'll saying that there is not the
slightest reason for his not SO
doing. iIr. Tongue has no cause
to blush in the presence of his
constituents, or make any apollo
gles. His record OH the Yaquina
appropriation is an open book,
and one that all may we'll take a
just pride in. The failure of the
Yaqulna appropriation was not
Mr.. Tongues fault, and any in
situation of the kind. is verv
unjust to our able and over
worked representative.

MORNING coNcERTs.

From the orchard calls the robin.
Leader of the feathered thronp.
Ch1rps the Jaybird from the hedge re W
Trills the sparrow's matin song.
Orioles, in the elm top swayi.g,
Pipe their brilliant bugle call,
And the bluebird's r.lellow warble
Sweetly sounds from maple tall.
Perched On topnlost bough of walnut,
Sweetness bnbb:ing from his throat,
Pruia donna ofthe morning,
Pours the thrush its liquid note.
On the wing in rapture posing,
Sings the linHet, blithe and proud.
With ecstatic fervor joins he
In the chorus full and loud.
Overhead the swallows twitter,
And the purple martins, too,
Sailing swiftly, this way, that way,
Underneath the vaulted blue.
Would you hear this glad recital?
Quit your bed at earlie:t dawn,
Leave the city's haudrum noises,
Seek the grove or dewy lawn.

The Albany Democrat thinks
politics keeps Gen. Fitzhugh Lee
out of Havana. If it weuld not
be presulnptuous the GAZETTE
would like to be informed by the
Democrat what it was that kept
Lee in Cuba for fourteen months
previous to the time that war
was declared against Spain. If
politics keeps Lee out of Cuba,
what is it that sent Joe Wheeler
to the front about Santiago? The
appointment of Lee and Wheeler
and hundreds Of other ex-Con-
federates by a Republican presi-
dent to prominent positions in
the army is ample evidence that
this war is carried on upon
broader lines than the Democrat
assumes.

IT WILL BE ORDERLT

The Daily Capital Journal ask.
the question, "Will the legisla.
ture come together in an orderly
maHner, proceed to elect senator
| at once, and go OH with the
legitimate business of general
assembly of the chosen repre-
sentatives of the people?"
The GAZETTE answers the
query in the affirmative. There
will be no such foolish less in
dulged in by the twentieth
session as was exhibited in the
eighteenth, when Senator Dolph
was defeated after having re-
celved unanimous caucus noini-
nation, or the nineteenth, when
the various factions. caused the
dlsgraceful sceues witnessed in
the insane efforts to eject and de-
feat ex-senator Mitchell. The
state has been in the circus busi-
ness for the last time. Tie at
tractive billboards, the flaming
posters, the trick monkey and
the educated mule cease to attract
the crowd Or hold the attention
Of sensible people, OF even poll
Llclans, longer. Jugglery in poll
'ics by raising false issues will
1ot longer be tolerated by the
Republican party in Oregon. |
The twentieth session will be an
orderly, hard-working, capable
'ody, and will do business only
II the legal and proper manner.

The Spaniards that surrendered

they are not allowed to take their

Timely Resolutions.

Resolved, That the Chamber of
Commerce. of Portland, Oregon,
rejecting The sentiment Of large
business se'tion, views with dis
favor the suggestion th,t The Phil
ippine islands, or any portion OF
them, shall be returned to the
sovereignty of Spain; or aban
doned to the European nations
truggling for supremacy in the
East. .,..-- .-
That we believe that any other
course than the retention of these
islands would be construed as
surrender TO the menaces of foreign
powers and as Il reflection upon
our courage and honor, which
should not be permitted, no matter
what the cost may be; and that
we as a nation cannot afford to
nulify the victory OF Admiral
Dewey or the sacrifices of our
soldiers and sailors now defending
this distant possession.
That we understandings demand
the retention of these islands that
the great commerce of the Orient
may be shared in by our people
without dictation from any En-
ropean power what snever.
