The morning Astorian. [volume] (Astoria, Oregon) 1899-1930, 1903-12-21

The message of Governor Chamber
lain is, as the governor promised not
able for its brevity. The executive
quotes the supreme court extensively
but his own recommendations occupy
comparatively little space. He deals
exclusively with the tax muddle, max
ing no reference to other Important
matters. Dougtless he has felt that,
if he made any other recommendations,
it would be but an inducement for the
Legislature to delve into legislation, as
it might at regular session. There
Is pressing need for new general law
covering the matter of fees for record
ing deeds, and perhaps another bill or
two may be offered. If so, they
should be passed without delay. The
brevity of the governors message in
dicates that he is anxious that the ses-
sion shall be brief one, and for his
in the welfare of the state he
is to be commended.

MR.. SCOTT AND THE SENATOR'S

At Washington city, on Thursday
Harvey w. Scott, editor of the Ore.
gonian, and United States Senator
Hoar met in an elevator at the capitol.
Senator Mitchell was with Mr.. Scott
and introduced the editor to the yener-
able senator. Mr.. Scott extended his
hand, but Senator Hoar declined to
grasp it.
4 should tell you why 1 will not
shake hands with you," said Mr.. Hoar
There once appeared in your paper a
paragraph rejecting upon my friend.
the late Senator Morrill,, of Vermont
Il said he was living along several
years TO save funeral expenses.
Mr. Scott denied knowledge OF the
editorial paragraph in question, but
said he was responsible for all that
appeared in the paper. The outcome
OF the meeting was that the intended
acquaintance did not materialize.
Mr.. Scott richly deserves the rebuke
thus administered to him, although it
is lamentable that so prominent an ed
itor should be snubbed by one of the
most highly respected members OF the
greatest law-naklng body in the world.
For years his paper has taken advant-
age OF every possible opening to ridi-
fule the members of the senate. Mr..
Scott has brutally attacked senatorial
dignity and numerically berated those
senator's who have sought to uphold
the reputation Of that body. On The
Gay following publication of the dis
patch telling of Senator Hoal's direct

editorial expression called Senator I

1t is quite in line With his oft-ex- 0
pressed views. v
Abuse Is poor weapon, and poorer e
argument, and it would seem that life ii
line spent in newspaper work would o
have taught Mr. Scott this. The cal d
lmnious utterances Of the Oregonian e'
nave brought that Journal into dtsre- N
'ute with nearly all the senators, and OC
is not surprising that the respected OF
tr Hoar declined to make the person. In
l acquaintance of man whose pub W
cly expressed views had always been
0 bitterly unfair to our highest leg

'ould maIigil the senator's in the col III

themat the capitol; but inSenator Hoar
he found man who entertains some
regard for the proprieties. The idea
that Mr. Scott might vilify senators
individually or collectively in his paper
and then extend the hand of friend
(hip TO them at the capitol did not APP
peal to the conscieptions senator from
Massachusetts; who can but be COM
mended for his manly course in frankly
telling Mr.. Scott what he thought of
him.
i In connection With the incident of
Thursday it is interesting to note that
Mr.. Scott has sought for many years
past to break into" the senate. Only
at the last legislative session he en-
deavored to deprive Senator Fulton Of
his strength, and his ''now-is-the-time"
telegram is still fresh in the memory Of
the observant public. That he should
have labored to become a member of
the body whose customs are 50 utterly
despicable in his eyes is remarkable,
to say the least but, if Mr., Scott were
not the personfcation Of inconsistency,
perhaps he would not so far disregard
the rules of common decency as to SLAM
der the senate of the United States.
1t is to be hoped Mr.. Scott will, even
at this time of his life, profit by the |
lesson of Thursdays incident.
