HOGG AND THE PRESS.

HOOG ANLI I7E HhESS.
Governor Hoggs interview rela,
tive to Judge Parker 5 speech calls
for little comment from The Post,
and but for one alludes to it at all.
He refers to his speech before the
democratic convention in this city
and intimates that he was unjustly
treated by the press. Unjustly
treated, did we say? He declared
the great papers have beea lying
about his speech and complained
that they did not print it in full.
The charge is so cheap and unrea-
sonable. we are surprised that
Hogg should make It. since he is
not candidate for Office It was
an old trick of his to charge the
newspapers with lying.
The Post did not print Governor
Hoggs speech in full. just as it
did not print many Of the speeches
in full. There are limitations
upon the space of the Post and we
still entertain a regard for the
patience of our readers. What
Governor Hogg said about the
railroads and various other matters
he had said many times before and
on those subjects the press had
given him an abundance of space.
What he said about the republican
president of the United States and |
the democratic candidate for pre-
sident was new matter, and was
the only thing ne said that called |
forth especial attention at the hands
of the press. The Post 5 report of
this feature of his speech did him
no injustice. There were several
thousand representative democrats
of Texas present and they know
that the governor was not mistreat
ed by the press. They heard him
and were indignant, and after he
had spoken, his language called
forth censure from nearly every
one who heard him.
The truth is, Governor Hogg
made an inexcusable blunder and,
as of old, he seeks to cover his
mistakes in a general charge against
the fairness and veracity of the {
press. He worked that old dodge t
to a finish years ago and it will not
serve him now. So far from the
newspapers lying about the speech,
every delegate will recall that he
not only praised Roosevelt in
manner approximating extrava-
gance, that he not only alluded to
Parker in manner indicating con-
tempt, but he accompanied his
words with grimace and gesticular
antics in a way to give the most
contemptuous emphasis to what he ]
said.
So far as the Post knows, no pa
per has treated him unjustly either
in the report of his speech or the {
thereon. 1t was the t
opinion of all who heard him that T
he had been guilty of a gross viola c
ton of the proprieties in making h
the comparison he did between the d
great democrat who heads our Y
National ticket and the noisy aud a
person who through P
accident has come to be the presi t
dent of the United States. The f
who criticise his Conduct I
most severely are not those who a
merely read the reports IN the daily :
press, but those who heard him and
witnessed the clownisll grimaces he b
made when he alluded TO Judge 5
Parker. q
Finally, the Post cares nothing 5
.bout the matter. anyhow Il has {

Burial Of James Wilkinson.

The mortal remains of the late
James Wilkinson, who died in Los
Angeles last Sunday, were laid to
rest in Crystal Lake cemetery
Thursday afternoon. The funeral
occurred from the family residence
at two o'clock, and was under the
auspices of the Odd Fellows, of
which the deceased was member.
A large number of Rebekahs and
g A R veterans were also in at
tendance. The service was con-
Quoted by Rev. Carrick Of, the
Presbyterian church.
James M. Wilkinson was born in
Joe Davis county, ILL.,, Sept. I3,
1912. At the age of 70 he enlisted
in the army and served three years
in Company GA" Independent Bat
talon and 3rd Missouri volunteer
cavalry. This regiment was large
ly engaged in scouting, foraging
and skirmishing in Arkansas, Miss
ouri and the frontier states and par
ticipated in many engagements.
In 1868, he was promoted to the
4th Duty sergeant for efficiency and
faithful service. He was at one
occasion taken prisoner but shortly
after paroled. He bore gallant
part in all engagements of his regi-
ment and acquired a proud record
of meritorious service and soldierly
conduct at all times. On the nth
of November, 1864, he received
an honorable discharge at the ex-
piration of bis term of service. He
had been an honored member of
Ellsworth Post, G. A. R. of Cor
wallis, in which he had held office
as junior vice commander.
In March, 1868, he was married
to Sarah Ann Rankin of Joe Davis
county, ILL.,, and for SO years en-
joyed the comforts and blessings of
a happy home. The following
children survive, Luella, wife of
E. J. Dunn, and Fred O..
Although farming was his chos-
en- occupation he has held Offices of
public trust. He was an ardent
republican and for many years
served as chairman of the repub-
lican committee in his precinct. He
was an industrious and enthusiastic
tiller of the soil. For many years
he had exhibited to visitors in
Benton county what industry and
up-to-date methods can accomplish
on an Oregon farm: His home
was like a garden spot among
the hills. The word welcome
seemed to be inscribed over the
gateway. Mr.. Wilkinson was
large hearted, public spirited and
truly generous man. No worthy
cause appealed to him in vain.
About two years ago he came to
Corvallis where he built COM
Portable home in which to spend
his declining days. Before he left
the farm he was stricken with para
lysis and since then he has been
partial invalid. In religion Mr..
Wilkinson was an ardent christian
and loyal member Of the Presby-
terian church.

MR.. WooDcocK,s MENAGERLE.

Woodcock's newspaper menager-
lie, with its imported aggregation of
stellar editors, one for the political
sideshow, one for the main tent, and
one for the popular department of
rare old plates, still admits the mid
night conclave, the job. and victims
for the slaughter at the convention
next day. Nobody in the show as
yet realizes that the admission is
damaging to the candidacy of the
great and good Granger" Yates
for senator. but when that well
known pillar in the grange (for
political purposes) once grasps the
situation there will be rafting of
dry bones in the animal cages
and perhaps denial yet, of the
caucus and its slate.
Why not deny? 1t can be done
with safety, and for the sake Of
that grand old granger" for po-
litical purposes), whose name is a
household word, wherever patrons
of husbandry is known, denial
should be made. 1t was easy for
the star performers, under the di'
rection of the ring master in this
famous troupe of acrobats to change
the tenor of the sacred resolutions
the convention passed and to print
them in form different from that
in which they were adopted, and
by that change to give them sense
entirely different from that in
which they were worked through
the unwilling convention. 1t was
easy for them to falsify the records
in one instance, and it will be
equally easy in all cases hereafter.
A denial can be printed with per-
feet safety. ''The Gazette or its
owners are in nowise responsible
for anything that may be said in
this department" (See sideshow
page, Woodcock's circus, April
5th.) When the owner of news.
paper publicly proclaims In bold
type that he will not father what
appears in his paper, why not de-
ny? If the owner publicly adver-
tises that the stuff In his paper is
unreliable and that the Gazette
or its owners are in nowise respon-
sible for anything that may be said
in this department. then, indeed,
1t is easy to deny the truth-or to
tell a lie.
Deny? Why, Of course-deny
heaven and hell and the angels, if
necessary to help the cause of the
great and good "Granger" Yates
(for political purposes). But the
fatal figures of the convention still
stand,

author, tells a story of Rossini, who
was much logged by the lion hunters:
"Once a Russian lady outstripped the
limits even Of Rossini's patience and,
having watched his daily promenade
during several days, sent a message to
his house expressive Of her desire to
be received by him. The reply to
this strange communication was: 4 do
nothing for nothing. II the lady
brings me a fine bunch of asparagus
she will be welcome, and she can take
a view Of me at her leisure Then,
pointing to his waist, which had at
tanned a somewhat aldermanic rotund-
ity, he added. The lady may even
walk round me If she pleases, but I
must have my asparagus"
