to regulate the clerkship abuse at the previous ses

$500 for clerks. They passed bill making road

power to build the roads out of the hands of the chos
en- servants of the people and vest it In appointed
county road engineer and pay him salary that would
gravel 10 miles Of road They kill bill
and every measure TO raise and then double
nearly every appropriation. These are the only
real anarchists and enemies OF popular government in
Oregon. They make mockery of scfgovenment

then attack the laws they pass in the courts on
the grounds of their uncOnstituionality They favor

A BUSINESS PROGRAM FOR OREGON
Oregon needs real leadership of men who will
give us business program such as cannot be gotten
from who have the above record in their own com
munties and in the legislature that fully under
their control Oregon needs cleanup Of its state
house from top to bOttoma cutting off of $4,000 IL
legal and unconstitutional fees and perquistes now
taken annually by state officials, and cutting off Of
halfmion of CRAFTS in the legislature. Enact fiat
salary law and pass revenue bills that will tax
the gross earnings of corporations enjoying state
franchises and not now taxed This would reduce
state taxes fifty per cent within year. But we might
as well expect Emersonian philosophy from digger
Indian such program from the apostles of loot
constituting the leadership Of Oregon Republican,
ism. This leadership must be OyerthrOwn and driven
out of control before business program can be in
augurated for our commonwealth The Republicans
who have started in for the publication and chastise
ment Of their party will turn back until this
fight has been won.
This new spurious leadorship'of OF the Republican
party needs TO be examined closely at home to under
stand its real character. What can the Furnish
machine show in Umatila county but great debts and
piled up by the Brownell machine in Clackamas cOun

Washington, March 10.-Dr. Helm
rich Muller, one of the European dip
lomatic Representatives of the Orange
Free State, called upon Secretary Hay
at the state department Saturday and
had half hours interview with him.
As In the case of the other Boer rep
resentatives, DIR. Muller was received
upon the distinct understanding that
he came in n private capacity and not
as diplomatic representative. Unlike
the preceding callers, he did not adj
dress himself to the subject of inter-
vention or mediation, nor did he
breach the subject of mule shipment
in South Africa. His sole concern was
with the concentration camps in South
Africa. He told the secretary pitt
full tale of the sufferings of, and fright
full mortality among the reconcen-
tradoes, the death rate among the
children in the camps running as high
as so per cent. according to his state
ment.
Secretary Hay gave his caller a SYM
pathetic reception, but was unable to
make any promise that the United
States government would change the
attitude toward this subject that It
has consistently assumed.
