The Oresoaian is atoning in
a small measure for the injustice
done Mr.. Tongue in the issue OF
January 1st, when it said: "Let
us give credit where credit is
due, but let us also give credit
to the Washington and Idaho
delegations at Washington for
the Snake and Columbia river
appropriations. IT these rivers
flowed through Oregon, we might
nave less to pat ourselves on the
back about" Before the ink
was dry on the Oregonian of that
date, Cushman, of Washington,
made a speech in congress in op-
position to the River and Harbor
bill, in which he severely eriti-
clsed the appropriation secured
BY Mr.. Tongue for the Columbia
river. This was sufficient to
show the people Of this state to
whom 1t will be necessary for
them to look for improvement
of the Columbia, and the Ore.
gonian made restitution by say
ing: Representative Tongue
gave a good account of himself
Monday in his answer to Cush-
man, of Washington, and re-
hected credit on his district and
state. His most signal service,
however, was in rebuking the
mean-spirited opposition in the
river and harbor work. Few
men in congress are more capa-
Bile In debate than is Mr.. Tongue,
and as he had right On his side,
his effort was not only creditable,
bus effective"

A prominent parsonage with a
large fund of humorous opinions
recently suggested that a vast
army of the most able statesmen
from Florida to Alaska and
Maine to Oregon were gathering
around the legislative halls al
Salem to advise the numerous
Oregon legislators what they
knew about electing United
States senators, and to go into
caucus and vice versa.

For Dairy Annex.

~ ualIy uepaItmene or annex
is projected for the State Agri.
cultural College. The increased
interest in dairying make it nee
essary to provide some means for
turning out practical dairymen
aud creamery men. It is under
stood that DR.. Withycombe will
appear before the legislature and
ask for such legislation as is
needed to establish the proposed
department, says Fridays Tele-
gram.
Upon the action of the legis-
lature will depend a good many
matters of paramount interest TO
dalrying circles. A pure-food
and dairy law will be presented
by the legislative committee of
State Dairymen's Association,
which has for one of its objects
the fostering and forwarding of
dairying interests. DR.. Withy-
combe's petition for a dairy an
mex 20 the State College, and a
suitable appropriation for assist
Tag the Dairy Commissioner in
carrying on his work. The dairy
ing interest have reached such
proportions during the last year
as to command the attention of
the state senators, and some of
them are pledged, it is under
stood, to do whatever is in their
power to forward the interests of
dairying. Therefor, there is
every promise that the present
year will see great advancement
in the dairying business.
One ofthe great needs of dairy
ing right now, dairymen say, is
experienced and practical men
who understand the business.
Such men can almost name their
own price. It is business that
requires training the same as any
'ether professional business.
Realizing this fact the Aericul-
tural College proposes to estab-
lish a .dairying school and turn
out graduates for every branch of
the business.
Agent claim that a good num-
Der of dairying cows are being
shipped into the dairying belt Of
Oregon, and that many more
have been contracted for. The
scarcity Of the milk supply is the
one thing that is keeping new
creameries fren being establish
ed. A creamery man night hunt
the state over without being able
to get a guarantee of enough
COWS in any one district to run a
goed-sized creamery. IF the
milk supply had been great
enough during the past year, it
Is not likely that commission
men would have been forced to
import butter from the East. nor
is 1t likely that the price of home
butter would have been higher
than the Eastern price, laid down
in Oregon. During the coming
year tons OF butter will be con-
sumed in Alaska, and unless
creamery men act promptly most
OF 1t will be supplied by Eastenn
houses. The Orient stands pap

WELL DONE

John Lynn has been declared guilty
by jury of his peers, after a strenu-
Gus contest before the court. There is
no alternative but to acquiesce in the
verdict and in the Judgment OF the
court which must follow There will
be general feeling of sympathy for
the man who has been so prominent in
the public eye, and who has fallen
from a position which should be main
tanned by a public man. But we are
glad to note that there was an evident
purpose on the part OF the Attorney
General TO see justice done, to the end
that our citizens might not continue to
suffer as they have suffered. Mr.. Lynn
finds himself in his present unforu-
nate position. solely by reason of his
own acts. There is now some tangible
evidence that reform in our politics is
not to be a mere empty word.
This victory won by the untiring ef-
forts and the skill Of the Attorney
General. is a notable one. II is gener.

possible to secure a conviction of any.

stances. Christmas is the most glorious
season of the year, and is looked for

for months.
Christmas to such children is a time
of unalloyed bliss. There is the ex-
change of gifts with parents. brothers,
sisters and friends; there is a big,
beautiful tree. laden with delightful.
mysterious packages and aglitter with
tinsels. pictures and lights; there are
long Christmas stockings. bulging out
in the funniest way imaginable with

ago, had an experience which they viii

of Third street bridge, and they OBJ.
served three or four small girls and
boys playing about a saloon door
They were bareefooted and ragged and
as dirty as it was possible for them tc
be. They were little more than babies
yet they lisped oaths of a shocking ma
ture.
The women stopped and one of them
addressed the Oldest child, a boy.
What IS your name, my little
man? ?" she asked him.
Jim. What's yous?"
Jim what?"
"Nuthin' but jim"
What is your fathers name?"
George"
What is his other name?"
Pop"
But what is his last name?" she
persisted.
Amt got no uther name" the boy
declared.
Anxious to know something about
him, she began to question him about
Christmas.
What is Santa Claus going to bring
you Christmas?" she asked.
Muffin. ] guess l don't know him. "
Didn't you ever hear of him, and
how he brings nice things to good
boys and girls Christmas?"
Il guess he don't know us, for he
never brung us nothin'."
Further inquiry revealed the fact
that none on the little ones knew
aught of Christmas joys and pleasures.
She was a little thing, not much
larger than a child Of seven, but she
said she was ten. Looking again, one
could see that she had lines about
mouth, eyes and forehead Of a woman
of 80.
She was fitting in and out among
the Christmas trees in one of the city
streets and touching them lovingly
with her little red hands which she
vainly endeavored to keep warm in a
dilapidated old muff.

thing that is in accord with the long
ings and the needs Of his nature, and
its observance viii make all men bet
ter. But the doctrine of the Child
born two thousands years ago, ard
which has been preached though all
the centuries, has made so little i'm
preston, Wars have been fought in its
name. men have bees burned at tie
stake for heretical Interpretation OF a
word. and those who believe in its doc
trines and who would die for it, are
daily violating its plain teachings.
II is true The world has not grown
into the full stature OF the Christian
ideal-it is probably true that it never
will, but a system OF ethics or of re-
ligion must contemplate perfection.
and that is never realized by imperfect
beings. Is this, then, a paradox? No;
our standard must be set beyond at
tainment to the end that we may ever
attain.
Go visit the hospitals and the mis-
eicns, the Associated Charities, the
homes for the feeb.e-minded, for the
insane, for incurables Follow the
Salvation Army lassies down into the
slums, and see-what you cannot see
the distress relieved by the millions
whose deeds are unheralded, and the
conclusion must follow that the teach
ing Of One who was born in Bethle-
hem two Thousand years ago are not
yet obsolete And we must remember
that the charities conducted by the
State are the result OF the desire of the
pepole, amid exist and are supported by
them because they will dt so.
Then let us prepare for the great
festival by putting ourselves into sym

attempt TO bring JOY to the Gives of
others, we are told, is the surest way
OF bringing happiness to our own. We
shall test It as we have tested it be-
fore, and we shall not be disappointed;
and so, again, a Merry Christmas to
