sHoRT.s1aHTEp POLICY.

The action of County Judge G. III.
Stewart, of Linn county, in sending
out letters to the various county
courts of the state advising against
holding the state fair at Salem this
year is shortsighted policy, and
will result in harm to the Lewis and
Clark exposition if the members of
the legislature are influenced by his
letter.
People arriving from the east will
want to see everything there is in
the state of Oregon, and they will
want to make trip up the valley.
The opportunity offered by the state
fair in the fall win be just what they
are looking for, and they will spend
several days looking over the fine ex-
hibits at the fair and the splendid
farms and ranches whore these pro
duets were raised.
The people of Oregon know that
when once an easterner carefully looks
over Oregon land and compares eondi-
tions with his eastern home he can.
not help to be impressed with the ad-
vantages the west offes over the east
ia climate and crops.
To attempt at this time to postpone
the state fair in favor of the exposi.
tion will be fatal mistake and viii
throw cold water ON the big Portland
fair. The state fair is distinctively
oregonian in it's character, while the
Lewis and Clark fair will be interna-
tional in its scope, and our Oregon
products win be almost lost in the
scramble.
Give us our regular state fair,
where the visitors can see just what
Oregon raises, They will enjoy it,
and the entire state win be the gamer,
The products on exhibition at the
worlds fair will be of the year 1904,
while the state fair will exhibit the
crop of 1905. The people of Oregon
want the state fair.

BILE hope Of ever rising from that con-
dition. no matter how excellent his
natural endowment and capacity might
be.
This is abhorrent to the spirit of
American institutions under which the
commonest citizen has heretofore had
unlimited opportunity to rise, and
most inspiring encouragement to strive
to do so. The number of men who
have so risen in the past is almost be-
ycnd computation, and the honor that
they have conferred upon the country,
the good that they do to their fellow
men, and the value Of the incentive

ers union would, if adopted and put
into effect by all labor organizations,
utterly wipe out.
And the effect in other directions
than the material one could not help
being disastrous. The moral tone must
inevitably suffer. The development of
intelligence which has put American
workingmen at the head of the world IS
best, would be forthwith choked and
made impossible by such system. De-
prived of incentive to reach up towards
better things, the man would sink to
the status of mere machine in hui
man form, lacking one of the chief |
and noblest attributes with which the
Creator intended he should be en-
dowed.
The right to earn a living must be
insured to every man without the me-
cessity of his joining any church, Sc
clet or other organization, and so
must we be allowed the right for each
man to do all and earn all he can. In
other words, freedom of action within
the law must be allowed and -guaran-
teed to every American.

CoNvIoTs ON PUBLIC ROADS
