EDUCATION in POLITICS.
Parker Talks of 1t, but Relies ON the
Strength of Tammnny.


Strength of Tammnny.
Judge Parker says this:
"Whenever a great question of public
Importance has arisen, il has been pre-
sented and championed through the press
and on the rostrum by the educated
thinkers of the country. who, for the
time being, are the real leaders, and
under whose banners the organization
leaders hasten to marshal their forces
lest their power shall be overthrown."
What Judge Parker has said above
is true and right and sensible. But
what, after the expression of such an
opinion, is Judge Parker's course? 1t is
very true that the educated thinkers
of the country should conduct the af-
fairs of the country. But what Is Judge
Parker doing? Upon what and whom
does Judge Parker rely for carrying the
State of New York; one Of the States.
the influence of whose electoral votes is
great in the results of the Presidential
campaign. He relies upon an un-A Amer
lean combination known as Tammany
Hall. 1t is absolutely impossible that
the man could hope to carry his own
State without the aid Of this most cor
rupt organization, in the greatest city
of the country-an organization that has
simply become an enormous tester upon
the State in which it exists. But it has
been accepted in all exigencies. by the
Democratic party, which. to the credit OF
that party, is little above Tammany.
How ridiculous, under the c.rcum-
stances, is the attitude of the more or
less qualified jurist who lives in ESQ
pus! Think of a man who even talks
of the influence of the educated man in
politics and who at the same time must
depend entirely for his success. In the
State of New York. upon conglomera-
ton of the most uneducated and vicious
elements ever gathered together In the
making Of a political pool in = great
city. 1t is hard to say it, but Mr.. Park
er cannot even afford to be respectable
in his explanations. He cannot afford
to talk about educated people or about
educated influence back of him, or about
all that is good and broad and culti-
vated back Of him because, without
Tammany back Of him in his own State,
he has not the shadow of a hope. and
Tammany Is the WORK force there Is
politically discredit to the country.

Of the odor of stale eggs, President
Robert C. French lodged across the
campus of the Eastern Oregon State
Normal School night or two since in
an effort to conceal an unpleasant ad-
venture with number of men supposed
to be employees of the Weston brick
yard.
The effort at secrecy failed and the
story leaked out. At faculty meeting
one OF the women teachers charged
President French with making unkind
remarks about her keeping company
with a young man employed In the
brickyard. mo one but hoboes work
in brickyard," was the unkind retort.
This slur was quickly repeated to the
one interested, and the fusillade Of bad
eggs followed at the first opportunity.
Other matters have caused much dis
cord among the members of the fac

While on the subject of skirts 1t may
be mentioned that skirts are made
rather snug around the hips for those
who cannot wear them any other way,
and are heightened by very deep
fiounce of Spanish cut, deeper in the
back than in the front. This founce
may be made of figured mousseline
and fitted to a skirt Of plain NOUS
seline.
Another way to build skirt is to
make 1t with four pun shirrings run

with q very deep founce, which is as

skirt so long that IL has to be lifted in

woman has doomed herself to wear.
Many Of the street skirts are abso-
lutely unmanageable. But they will be
worn more for piazza occasions and for
semi-full dress than for actual pedes-

exaggerated length as are the skirts
for receptions and for the house.

walking length in front and trailing
length in the back. On the contrary,

long in the front. This skirt must be
so lengthy that you can step on it and
so very full that you actually must lift
it little in the front in order to move
about.

Washington, October 6-B-igadler
General Barry, commanding the de-
partment of the gulf, in his annual
report recommends the enlistment
of colored men for the artillery and
their assignment to the companies
serving at sea coast posts from Vlr-
ginia to New Orleans. Most of these
artillery stations he says are in the
formative period and many are ul-
desirable by reason of excessive and
prolonged heat, isolation, mosquitoes,
and bad water. Men rarely reenl1st
at these posts and Gen Barry says
the maintenance of the organizations
at their authorized strength is mat
ter of serious moment.
1T would seem only fair says he,
ito transfer the organizations after
tour of say three years at these sta
tions. which will maintain the Or
ganizaticn intact and foster its trad1-

courage their reenlistment, the trans

SMALL FIRE.
Runor That Robert Schumpert's Gin
nery Had Been Burned-Little
Foundation For Story.

On Tuesday there was a runor
that the mill and ginnery OF Mr..
Robert Schumpert, in this county,
were both in flames. While there
was some ground for the rumor the
affair was not nearly so bad as report
ed and the fire was very small. Mr..
Schumpert sent word to Newberry on
Tuesday night that the blaze caught
in his ginnery probably from a
match which was in some of the cot
ton, that it did not do more than five
dollars worth of damage all told, and
that the fire lasted only a few min
utesc. 1t seems that the gin is OF
the kind which sucks up the cotton
through pipe from the wagons. 1t
is thought that match accidentally
dropped in some OF the cotton
scraped against the hue as it was be-
ing sucked up and thus started the
little blaze.
