The feeling is that the Bryan men have had

ATHENA. MARCH is, 1904

Senator Hoar complains that it is hard
for his old eyes to read the Congression-
al Record, printed as it is in small type.
This complaint entered by the venerable
Massachusetts, senator reminds us that
he is indeed getting old; yes, very old.
And the inquiry naturally follows. why
does he not step down and out, permit
ting some younger and more vigorous
man, one whose eyesight is good enough
to read the record as it is now printed,
to take his placer In short, why does
not Senator Hoar and number Of
other antiquated senators resign, retire
from politics, and turn the affairs OF
state over to those Of present times?
There are in the senate quite number
of men, who like Senator Hoar, have
been ornaments to the states they have
represented in the upper house of con-
gress, but who have passed their period
of usefulness. They are men OF the
past. Their ideas and lines of thought
are connected with conditions that ex-
listed years ago. They are incapable Of
coping with the younger generation or
adapting themselves to the busy, hust-
ling scenes of the present. They should
step down end out, and if they fail to
quit public life voluntarily, their re-
spective states should retire them, 1t
is the opinion of the Times Mountaineer
that Oregon will soon be afflicted with
one of these antiquarians in the senate.
While he is yet comparatively active for
one of his age, he cannot stay the march
of time Old age will soon incapacitate
him for active legislative duties. But
he is not ready to retire. Already plans
are being laid for his re- e-election in 1907.
Wires are being pulled to nominate
state senators this year, who will serve
in the 1907 session Of the legislature,
and who will in advance pledge their
fealty to John III. Mitchell. Those who
are laying such plans are attempting to
do Oregon an injustice, for Senator
Mitchell, like the aged Massachusetts
statesman, is getting almost too old to
read the Congressional Record.

The order issued by President Roose-
welt February o. directing the secretary
of the interior hereafter to make no
temporary Withdrawals for forestry pur-
poses until consulting the members OF
the congressional delegation Of the state
in which the proposed reserve is located,
is not well received by those who are
bound by it, and an attempt is being
made to induce the president to modify
or revoke the order entirely, writes the
Oregonian's Washington correspondent,
1t is pointed out that as long as the lieu
land law remains on the statute books
such an order will be dangerous, mas
much as it will give dishonest senators
or representatives advance knowledge
of localities where it is proposed to
create reserves, and will place in their
hands inside information which they
will be at liberty to dispose Of to land
operators, or which they will otherwise
use to their own benefit, il they were so
disposed.

In his testimony before the senate
committee on privileges and elections,
President Smith of the Mormon church,
admitted that he was living with five
wives in open violation of the law, and
that large number of other Mormons
in Utah are doing the same thing. Mr..
Smiths testimony is sufficient to cause
the Utah courts to make Investigations,
and it will not be surprise il lot of
Mormon elders and bishops are sent to
