Oregon Has IL Good Friend.

Washington, Dec. IL. Oregon
has reason to congratulate itself
on having secured the appropria-
ton for its exposition at the last
session of Congress. 1t now APP
pears that the $4,000 appropri-
ated for Government participation
in the Lewis and Clark Exposition
is the last money that Congress
will expend for expositions for
many years to come.
The action Of the House Com
mittee on Expositions in hatly re-
fusing to make any appropriation
whatever for the jamestown Ex,
position IS al indication that Con-
gress mas had enough, and has
finally reached that stage where it
will put its foot down. Had it not
been for the interest President
Roosevelt took in the Oregon en-
terprise and for the influence
which he exerted in behalf Of the
Lewis and Clark appropriation
bill Oregon would have suffered
the same blow that has been dealt
to Jamestown.
Congress was just rs much op-
posed to exposition appropriations
a year ago as it is now, but Oregon
had a friend at court, and the only
friend WHO could be Of real service.

Blessings-or Mere Advertisements

One who has been reading about
commandments lately Is suspecting
that education Is going TO swamp this
state. The daily newspapers have
printed several thousand accounts of
how this little Johnnie In one school
and that little Mary In another school
have recited their little "spiels" and
'Edone great credit to efficient teach
era" -Four OF five hundred great ora.
tions have been delivered as usual at
the colleges and numerous distingu-
tshed gentlemen have spoken In learned
terms profound thoughts about educa-
tion.
THE ADVERTISER would like to
know whether Or not In Germany
whore education Is more thorough and
more general than elsewhere In the
world commencements are so ~popularp
We wonder If anything like SO much
energy and money are expended in the
old countries where boys and girls are
all taughC well. Will not some OF the
great orators who have spoken at the
great state colleges yield the informa.

Why Only Three!

The campaign Is about to open. The
signs are that the contest will be con-
fined to the seven or eight or ten citi-
zens who wish to have places on the
railroad commission. Why should not
all men run for this office. 1t pays q
salary OF $1,000, the term is six years,
the commissioners are given free
transportation on all tho railways and
the salaries + paid by the railway
companies. Why the general assem-
bly, does not increase the number of
commissioners from three to three
thousand is a puzzle that we have never
been able to understand. The state of
South Carolina is paying 5000, 600. the
year in pensions. If three thousand
gentlemen could be paid $1,000. a year
by the railroads the pension list could
be reduced three thousand. OF course
1t would not cost the state q copper.
The railroads would foot the bills. The
money box of the railroads is mex
haustible, SO is that Of the telephone
and telegraph cOmpanies;why shouldn't
they unload it upon and distribute it
among the people? There are those
who fancy that the railroad companies

sioners salaries out of the pockets of
people but this cannot be true. II it
were true, III astute legislators would
not have provided that the railroads
should pay the salaries because the
Legislators + always solemnly deter
mined that the people shall pay no
taxes. The Legislature would never
have imposed an indirect tax upon the
people.
The ADVERTISER Is not to be inter-
preted as suggesting that the members
of the railroad commission are pen
sloners. We do not reflect upon their
vast usefulness. To whom are they
useful? 1t is not for Is to guess. II they
are paid by the railroads they ought to
be useful to the railroads. Every man
should be loyal aud faithful to his en-
ployers. If they are paid by the peo-
pie, directly or indirectly, or by o de-
vious and winding route, they ought to
be useful to the people,--by a winding
and devious route. We are convinced
that the railroad commission is ex-
ceedingly useful. Moreover we are
confident that it is ever more orna-
mental than useful.

The National Campaign.

Mr.. Hearst will have a respectable
following in the st, Louis convention.
He will by no means be nominated but
he may give trouble. Col. Bryan is to
be there at the head OF the Nebraska
delegation. The "Solid South" will also
be there either as backing Judge
Parker or opposing with a man Of
Parker's kind the purposes and poll
cies of Messrs. Hearst and Bryan. This
is putting the matter In plain If un-
pleasant English. In the greatest state
of the South, Georgia, for example, a
''Palmer and Buckner'' editor is one of
the delegates at large, Col. Charlie
Pendleton of Macon,-the ablest politi-
cal writer in Georgia by the way. The
Editor Of thu Atlanta Journal is an

Tillmau and Latimer In this state adyo-
Gated the measures and policies that
Watson advocated and perhaps in even
noister terms. They, meanwhile called
themselves Democrats. Now they have
"come round" and are denying the
political gospel that they swore by
those few years ago. We speak Of
Tillman and Latimsr merely as exam
pies. There are thousands of others
like them. There are practical men OF
common sense who know that to sue
coed in the polite, trade the ~''psople"
must be humored and petted and
fooled, handled like muling babies and
told big tales of the "bogey man" and
"black dog" They realize that they
must not have convictions, that they
must not feel bound in conscience to any
system of principles, that they must
watch tho straws so as to blow with the
wind themselves. They are extremely
able and smart politicians. The state Of
South Carolina should be proud of
them. We a"e a great state anyhow.
