"A Plain Everyday Falsehood.'


In it's issue Of December 10 The
LEADER stated that Judge Hamilton
regards 5000 as not too large q salary
for the county judge Of Lincoln county,
and that he brands the law setting said
salary at $500 as "a legislative error
Whereupon the Reporter went off at
half cock, as usual, and remarked:
"We are reliably informed that the al
legged verbatim statement of Judge
Hamilton is another falsehood which
a truth-loving official paper should
have avoided" Indeed! The following
self-explanatory letter will give our
readers a pretty good idea as to who
has lied:
RosEBURe, Or, Dec. 15, 1902.
Hon. G.. N. Brown,
County Judge of Lincoln County,
Toledo, Oregon;
Dear Sir-Referring to your request
that / give my judgment as to the
reasonableness Of 5000 per annum as
the salary Of the county judge of Lin.
coin county, I wish to say that I think
$500 per annum n reasonable salary.
The position of county Judge I regard
as a very important one. Upon the
wise and judicious conduct of his Office
must largely depend the successful adj
ministration OF the affairs Of the people
of the county. If this is of any service
to you in the way Of having corrected
that which appeared to me as a Iegis-
lative error in fixing the salary of the
county judge of Lincoln county, you
are welcome to it. Very truly yours,
j.. w. HAMILTON.
As is we'll known, Judge Hamilton de.
cided that the statutes fixed the salary
OF the county judge at $500. A doubt
existed on that point, and for this rea.
son County Judge Brown was repre-
scented by counsel. But, as stated by
The LEADER, Judge Brown did not ques-
ton the justice of Judge Hamilton's
cision. 1t may interest our readers,
however, to learn that the Oregon Code
for 1902, which has been issued since
Judge amilton's decision was rendered,
places the salary of the county Judge
of Lincoln county at 5000. So there is
still a chance for argument.
But the people have not yet been in
formed why the suit brought to reduce
County Judge Stewards salary to $500
was suddenly dropped. The Reporter
t~lippantly asks why THE LEADER does
furnish the information. That is
simply lodging the question. 1t is
asked only of those who are supposed
to know.

Railway to Asia.

The pro lection of railroad to Asia
under Boring straits has been dream
ed of. but there has been little expect
ancy of the dreams being realized.
Yet in the last few days Secretary
Hitchcock has been asked to approve
the proposed construction of a rail-
road under Boring straits, to connect
with the Siberian railway. The pro-
jectOrs of the road are French and
Russian capitalists. and with them are
certain American bankers. Count de
Lobet, of Paris, and John j. Healy. of
Alaska, head the list of incOrpOra-
tors, who have taken out their char
tiers under the laws of Maine. The
application for right of way through
Alaska will undoubtedly be followed
by an application to congress for a
land grant through the territory, con-
ditional after the Northern Pacific
grant. The petition is probably
fOrerunner to request to the United
States to neutraliZe Bering straits. so
that in the event of war no advan-
tage would be given to the enemies
of Russia. Russian officers demand
this as a condition of the Russian gov
eminent giving further support to the
road or confirming the concessions of
land heretofore granted. The petit
ton sets forth that the route is along
certain portions of the Pacific coast
to Juneau, and thence by a westerly
direction to the most westerly point
of Alaska, extending to the Boring
sea. 1t is the purpose to construct a
tunnel from that point under Boring
straits to the Siberian mainland.
Promise is made to file map later,
disclosing the exact course which the
proposed road shall take, particularly
across the territory of Alaska. Sec
rotary Hitchcock is asked on behalf
of the incorporators to fix a day for
a hearing, when the representatives
and agents of the Trans-Alaska-S ibe-
ria Railway company may appear and
fully explain the plans and establish
with the department the good faith
of the enterprise. They claim they
can manifest the ability of the incor-
porators to construct the road, and
state their willingness to file a bond
for the faithful performance of the
work within the territory of the Uni
ted States in such manner as shall be
required by the secretary.

Dec1ining Prosperity.

Wall street generally discounts in ad-
vance the falling of in demand for
products or the reduction in earnings
of railroads, and these bear raids are
but indications of worse that may hap
pen. When a stock like the steel trust.
that pays dividends of per cent, sells
around %, there must be something
radically wrong. With, every one of its
products protected by the tariff and
with nearly complete control of the
market, the protectionists should be
able to give at least a plausible reason
for the enormous decline in its pros.
perity. Can it be that protection does
not protect its beneficiaries and yet
compels the American people to pay
extortionate prices? 1t is the more ex-
asperating to those'who use steel trust
products that the foreigner is able to
purchase them for; much less price
than obtains in thelhome market.

Ninety-nine out of every 100 dis

disorders of the stomach, and these
disorders are all caused by indiges-

Children thrive on it. 1t keeps their

their growth and development. Mrs.

is now years old and has been suf-
fering from Indigestion ever since he
was born. l have had the best doc
tors in Nashville, but failed to do him
any good. After using one bottle of
Kodol he is a well baby. l recommend

Good Points In Dogs.

Among the many canine qualities
worthy of imitation a lover of the
-four footed brothers" emphasizes
their contented resignation to the cir
cumstances of life. Dogs, he says, do
not go about trying to do good to other
dogs by urging them to bark in the
same key and bite with the same tooth
us themselves, nor, which is merciful
provision of nature. do they become
bored by the people with whom their
lot is cast and want to try new mas
ter every few months. Whatever the
disadvantages of their homes may be,
they stand by them and make cheer
full best of it. Over and again dog
puts his heart before his outraged
stomach and lets his affections domi-
nate his indigestion rather than desert
his master for better board Many a
master. concludes the dog champion.
