READERS OF THE DAILY PAPERS

Any family that receives and reads
daily newspaper has taken one step
in advance--a stride Of development
beyond the intellectual progress Of
those reading only the weekly paper
Their lives are put in daily touch
with the larger affairs of the world
and the unfoldment of the worlds
drama becomes more realistic as the
habit of reading daily paper is
formed
"A current of life from a seven.fold
stronger battery quckens the ener-
giles of the whole family It is
awakened into seyenfold energies
and activities and It's achievements
are in some proportion.
The time Of every member of fami.
ly that reads a daily paper becomes
more valuable. AS the view of the
world and society is enlarged the
hours bring more into view, there is
more to see and feel and realize
The free rural mail delivery has
made It possible for thousands OF
homes to take n daily paper that
formerly took only the weekly or
monthly, and has brought the electric
light of modern times to the farm.
The modern daily newspaper is the
X-ray that Eliminates hitherto dark
places. The monopoly Of furnishing
information for the people is broken
wherever the light OF daily newspa-
pers penetrates.
Any family that takes a daily paper
like the Journal can congratulate t.
self on living on higher plane - civ.

TIE REPUBLICAN BREAK.

The Republican campaign for the
control OF the next congress which
assemblies on the first Monday in De
cember 1908. went along swimmingly
until few days ago when Speaker
Henderson declined a nomination that
had already been given him.
He has for many years been con-
gresham from the Dubuque, Iowa,
district and had been renominated
by the Republican district convention
as usual without opposition, although
there was some talk OF opposition.

TWO BOOKS ABOUT PRISONERS

"The Story Of a Strange Career"
by Stanley Waterloo, is the life of a
criminal. written by him while serving
a term In a western penitentiary.
Originally of good family. the man
seems to have become degenerate,
swerving naturally into the downward
path. He gives many graphic and
interesting descriptions Of his adyen-
lures I'm a whaler in South America;
on a British man-of-war; in the Amer
lean navy; at Fort Fisher; in Con
federate prisons during the civil war;
and in the New York draft riots.
Another interesting prisoner story
is a novel under the apt title OF "The
Things that are Caesars" Il is based
upon the old question OF whether or
not a man having violated the laws
made for the protection Of society,
and then paying the penalty prescribed
therefor, has cancelled the debt. One
is inclined 10 answer Yes But will
society recognize the tact that the

his own unconsidered actions these
would be.

AT QUA BARGAIN COUNTER.

~ OOh bhH1hiN OOON tn
The Journal goes to hundreds of
new readers today for the first time
and that they may know just what
It aims at as newspaper a few
words are offered:
The publishers are born and reared
and have been Republicans all their
lives, though at times openly sup
porting the opposite party. They
have run Republican papers and held
Republican offices and are always
ready to work with the best people in
the Republican party, than whom
there are no better people on earth.
But there is great need in Oregon
for an Independent course on the
part of newspapers and voters, and
the Journal reserves the right to sup
port any party or any part of any
ticket that is put up, and to publlcly
advocate it's election.
The Journal exists by the support
and patronage of the people-and bust
ness men and women who read II
and advertise in II. SO far as we are
able we hope to serve their best in
terests.
In It's battles for reform and pro.
gress the Journal has at times felt II
to be a public duty to score and roast
individuals connected with public
affairs This is never done with per
sonal vindictiveness.
Let us have the GOOD that Is in all
MEN and the BEST, in the way OF
GOVERNMENT possible at the hands
of any party, is NONE TOO GOOD.

Oregon Republican leaders are wise

The Congress that meets in Decem-
Der, 1903 will be an historical body
and will have to deal with the trust
question as we'll as tariff revision.
Republicans may prefer to not have a
majority in that Congress.
If that Congress is Democratic and
undertakes to legislate against the
trusts and the protected industries in
any effective manner it will throw
all those great organizations over to
the Republicans in 1904.
If that Congress is Democratic and
does not pass antitrust and tariff re.
vision legislation the people will re-
pudiate the Democratic party in 1904.
A Democratic Congress means Demo
cratic defeat for the Presidency.

A younger generation Of politicians
controlled the Republican state con-
vention in Iowa this year Senator
Deliver, Governor Cummins, Director
of the Mint Roberts (who is now
editor Of the Iowa State Register),
and the Iowa congressman who are
mostly young men.
The battle for tariff revision was
.arried through the state convention
after a very full discussion. The con-
vention took the ground that the
Dingley schedules favored the trusts
too much.
That is the fight that Roosevelt is
practically making, although he has
been very careful to not say So His
fight for trust supervision and for reci-
procity and tariff reduction with Cuba
amounts to that in principle.
So it may be said there is a serious
break in the Republican party and
the action of Speaker Henderson in
pulling out of fight in an almost
sure-tbing Republican district EN-.
phasizes the rupture.
II can be said that II was only a
question of time when Henderson
would have had to go. Any Speaker
who does business under the rules Of
the House and enforces them is bound
to become obnoxious to all parties,
Henderson may have elected to go
apparently on matter Of principle,
although II looks TO an uninstructed
observer as II he had better have
helped his own party to make the fight
within the party councils.

THE BLUE AND THE GRAY.

Several subscribers have asked for 'The Blue and Cray poem within the past few months It is here given in full: By the flow of the inland river. Whence the fleets of iron have ned, Where the blades of the grave-grass quiver Asleep are the ranks of the dead; Under the sod and the dew, Waiting the judgment day; Under the one. the blue, Under the other, the gray. Those in the robings of glory. Those in the gloom of defeat, All with the battle-blood gory In the dusk of eternity meet; Under the sod and the dew. 4. Waiting the judgment day; Under the laurel, the blue, Upder the willow. the gray. From the silence of sorrowfui hours The desolate mourners go. Lovingly laden with flowers,
 Alike for the friend and the foe; Under the sod and the dew,
 Waiting the judgment day;
 Under the roses, the blue,
 Under the lilies, the gray. So with an equal splendor.
 The morning sun-rays fall. With touch impartially tender. On the blossoms blooming for all; Under the sod and the dew,
 Waiting the judgment day:
 'Broidered with gold the blue, So. when the Summer calleth
 On forest and field of grain, With equal murmur falleth
 The cooling drip of the rain
 Under the sod and the dew,
 Waiting the judgment day;
 Wet with the rain. the blue
 Wet with the rain, the gray. Sadly, but not with upbraiding.
 The generous deed was done, In the storm of the years that are fading, No braver battle won;
 Under the sod and the dew,s
 Waiting the judgment day:
 Under the blossoms, the blue.
 Under the garlands. the gray. No more shall the war cry sever.
 Or the winding rivers be red; They banish anger forever,
 When they laurel the graves of our dead,
 Under the sod and the dew,
 Waiting the judgment day
 Love and tears for the blue,
 Tears and love for the gray. FRANCIS MILES FINCH

HAYES ODD YELLOW COLT.
Looks Good for Tennessee Derby Fillies Working Halves in O.52.

--~~~
 Nashville. Tenn, March 4.-(SpeciaD-- although the spring running meeting April "A to May Bis eight weeks 1off, horsemen located at Cumberland Park are beginning to send their charges along at speed despite the bad weather, which has been in vogue since the opening of the new year. With one or two excep- tions the track has been heavy since early in January and trainers have been using the covered track. Tom Hayes. who owns one of the largest stables in the West. is preparing a number of his horses for the Memphis meeting Buc- cleuth and Crimean. the Tennessee Derby candidates in this barn, will be shipped to Memphis about April l. The son of imp. Odd Fellow Montgomery Cooper is probably the one that will carry the Hayes colors. and horsemen in this vi- cinity think he has loyal chance. Buc- cleuth has developed into a large colt of big bone and confirmation, and has all the actions of good race horse. O Neil, one of the most promising jockeys In | the country, will have the mount. Cri- | mean thickened out considerably, but does not show a disposition to go a routa l and 1t Is not at all likely that he will start in the Memphis classic. Irresistible, | a 3-year-old daughter of Iroquois-Fanny Ellsier in the stable of Billy Jackson, is being prepared for the Tennessee Oaks. Trainer Gerhardy is giving her special preparations and as she has turned out to be very smart miss 1t looks as if
 
 Stevens's candidate, is likely to be sent after this race also. Both of these fillles have worked fast. Irresistible worked to the half this morning In 52 seconds with a heavy boy in the saddle. She moved along with great ease and was only breez- ing at the finish. Marque has been to the half in B. With one or two excep- tions these are the only horses that will start in the stakes at Memphis William Gerst the local brewer, will ship couple of 2-year-olds to the Bluff City the last of this month.
 There a number of very promising ju- veniles here. W. w. Dardon's chestnut colt by Farandole dam Varnish has worked very fast and looks as if he will develop into a stake horse. Oui Oui, Co., rey and Wayward Girl in Billy Jackson's stable look, as If they will do. Trainer Gerhardy sent them to the quarter this morning in A.
 A number of new stables will be built at the track. besides a number of other improvements will be made in the way of beautifying the course.

 One minister took exception to the ire quency with which Dr. Buckley address ed the conference. He said, The young men always vote as the doctor talks, and it isn't fair" After long tribute tJ Dr. Buckleys intelligence the man sat down. Dr. Buckley was on his feet in an instant to say.
