That Would Be Different.

Suppose that instead of Peabody
there sat in the governors chair of
Colorado a man as hot IN the cause
of labor governor were backing up
the striking miners as Peabody is
backing up the mine owners. Sup
pose that he had placed the militia
at the service of the unions, and
that the latter, bayonets to enforce
their DEGREES, mad driven from the
state the corrupting lobbists of the
corporations, closed down nenunion
mlnerc INTO the bullpens, deported
them by the carload, and dangled
nooses before the eyes of officials,
thus coercing them into resigning?
Suppose the miners had rounded up
the mine owners and all the mem
bers of the Citizens Alliance, and,
under military guard, carried them
over the Kansas line and dumped
them without food and water on the
desolate prairies, suppose this re-
yersrl of conditions, and how long
would it have been before President
Roosevelt had found some pretext
for exerting federal authority to re-
store to Colorado the republican
form of government which is her
guaranteed constitutional right?
He might not, IN limitation of
Cleveland, have marched federal
troops into the state without the re-
quest of the governor, but surely be
would have exercised his legal power
to set the bureau of labor and COM
merce at work to investigate SO hor-
rible y condition of affairs. And
assuredly he would not have been at
a loss for an opportunity to address
the country on the collaps of a free
government in state of the Union.

LAME ARGUMENT.

Mr. U'Ren says in his letter concerning the di.

on the part of the secretary of the league who here
tofOre argued that it would settle the factonal diff
ferences in Multnomah county A law that will only
kill off political bosses doesn't amount to much.
boss is a man who has secured the confidence of the
voters to the extent that he is permitted to promu
gate policies His political experience is so wide
that his suggestions are adopted without much ques
ton. The term boss is facetiously applied. 1t
is tribute to man S political sagacity rather than
something of which he should be ashamed The boss
holds his high position in the party only because
the people want him. Aspiring, would-be bosses seek
his overthrow 1t is to be presumed that they hope
with the aid Of the direct primary law, to accom-.
plish results which their own intelligence will not
net them. The argument is lame one, and if there
is nothing else than this feature to commend the
measure it ought to be turned down by practically
vote. Mr. U 'Ren has written several let

That Ambiguous" Letter.

A great deal of ingenuity and edi-
torial space has been expended in
Vermont this spring in trying to
make a puzzle out of the now-famous
De Boer letter so that a solution
might be made to fit the situation.
The pivotal sentence on which inter-
est has swung is this: If that SER
vice We're before me in the form of
an actual choice, l would gladly and
proudly respond to the call
The solution that fits the situation
being that Mr.. De Boer will proudly
accept if the service is offered him for
actual choice, the puzzlers have been
careful not to continue their quota
ton to the next sentence where Mr..
De Boer makes his meaning discour-
agingly plain by saying: 4 regard
myself barred. however, by circum-
stances" In other words, his own
circumstances make actual personal
choice in the matter impossible to
him: not the circumstances attending
the offer. It's plain enough.
But cheer up, weary party puzzlers!
The letter was written last December
and there may have been perfectly
proper changes in Mr.. DeBoer's mind
and circumstances since then!

Not So Narrow.

The Methodist church is often ac-
cused of harboring considerable men
tai narrowness and unchristian intol-
erance; but it refused, at its general
conference at Los Angeles this week
to censure the Catholic church for its
attitude toward the public school
system of the United States.
No broader or more generous esti-
mate of a differing creed was ever
made than that which Charles B.
Lore, chief justice of the Delaware
supreme court, and lay delegate to
the conference. made during the dis
cussion of the subject. He said:
''The Roman Catholic church has
done a magnificent work in this coun-
try. II has taken hold of a class Of
people that perhaps no other form of
religion could have nodded so well for
the well being of our common land.
/ feel like putting my hands under
every evangelizing agency in this
world that helps to uplift men and
not pull them down"
His utterance was applauded. too.

The bar of Washington is said to
be exceedingly wroth at President
Roosevelt because he appointed Judge
Stafford, instead of resident of
Washington, to fill the vacancy on
the District bench. The last appointee
had been an Ohio man and the bar
was about to assemble to ask the
president to appoint a resident in
Justice Pritchard's place when an
nouncement was made that "a Yer
mont country lawyer" would get the
appointment. OF course. the indigna-
tion of the bar is directed the presi-
dents way. but it can not be expected
that the country lawyer" will alto
gether escape its recoil. He de-
serves a cordial and hearty welcome,

Embarrassing County Obligations.

far they have walked in darkness, for

Why keep us all in suspense? If we
are to have a county candidate for
governor. all loyal county republicans
will want to support him. In the
event we are not going to have a
county candidate, we want to begin
hurrahing for Bell or Stanton or
some other good man. Only 60 days
