A WORD FOR THE DEMOCRATS

The Journal has not the heart to
deride the Oregon Democrats. They
have put up a good ticket, and adopt.
ed a pretty good platform. On that
fiat salary business, they have got
rather the best Of the Republicans
and If they could back up their dec
larations with deeds 1t might prove
valuable political assets. But they
are a small, poorish people, as a par
ty, and we should not be too hard on
them, nor expect too much of them.
They have an important duty to per
form as an opposition party, and have
performed it well. The Republicans
have got to get in and make good on
several things. They have got to pass
that fiat salary bill in spite of hi
and high water, whether they like 1t
or not. They have got to reduce their
state tax, and hold appropriations
down to somewhere near the business
limit. They have got to get in and
build that portage railroad, or go out
of business in Eastern Oregon. A 20.
year-in-the-future canal will not do,
gentlemen. The Journal wishes to be
modest about suggesting these things.
1t would always be modest. 1t mildly
suggested that Governor Geer be re.
nominated, and that a fiat salary law
be enacted. Republican managers
spat On these mild and kindly and
more or less intelligent suggestions,
and followed some superior wisdom
of their own. They lost their gov
ernor, and are up against it on the
fiat salary question, The Journal
later urged that Governor Geer call a
special session so that the $500. 900
worlds fair bill could be passed with.
out %log-rolling as much more thor
ough OF the strength of that measure.
Well, the fear that some one would
or would not be elected senator pre-.
vented a special session, and the
Portland fair bill went through load
ed with about $500, 900 of other jobs.
While we are proud of the fair, and
willing to cough up" for Portland en-
terpriseS, the common people" who
are only remotely benefited, had a
right to have the hog killed with as
little other billings as possible. The
way the fair job was finally put
through, has given the state the high.
est state tax in years. When all the
good advice in the world is wasted
and thrown away, there is no use
shedding tears. But no n need
blame the Democrats for making the
most of their opportunities. The only
way to get out of the woods is to send
good business Republicans to the leg.

TttNNELLINa THE HUDSON.

The work OF constructing the troll
lev tunnel under the Hudson River
at New York in not only exciting the
wonder and admiration OF the engl'
neering world, but is a work In which
laymen do, and should, take a great
interest, not so much perhaps from
technical and scientific standpoint as
does the engineer, but nevertheless
from its seeming intricacy, and az
demonstrating the extent TO which
man as "a scientist has developed
and put into effect natural forces III
the accomplishment OF undertakings
which have heretofore been consider
ed impossible OF accomplishment. In
the case OF the Hudson River tunnel
the great obstacle in the way OF its
accomplishment was the fact that
the surface through which the tunnel
was to pass was of such exceeding
soitness that itcould not be removed
by any means known TO engineering,
and as fast as removed the excava-
ton would be Immediately retilled by
the surrounding semifluid earth. This
very obstacle Ia now being used as a
means OF rapid construction, and
under the method now employed the
construction of the tunnels assured.
The tunnel was begun In 1874, and
work upon it was repeatedly aban-
dOned at various times until com
paratively recently and what was re-
garded as the most difficult piece OF
tunnelling ever undertaken has now
become the simplest. The work is
progressing at the marvellous speed
OF nearly fifty feet per day. The tun-
mel is not being excavaied, as is usu'
ally done, at all, but is really bored
through the soft mud by means OF a
shield, within which the workmen OPP

means of compressed air, and as the
opening is made under protection Of
the shield, the worknen place in be-
hind it shield after shield of the tun-
nel lining. This great triumph In
American engineering should be, and
is, d matter OF pride to American
people, and cOnvinces us that there
is scarcely any limit TO she accom-
plishments of mankind in the intelli-
gent use OF natures bounties.

STEAMSHIP DISASTER
Nine Burned to Death In Vessel On

New York. Dec. 19.-An awful re-

boat horror was the destruction by
fire of the steamboat Glen Island on
Long Island Sound, resulting in the
death OF two passengers and seven
members OF the crew. The fire was
discovered when the steamer was on
Captains Island. and within 10 min
utes the vessel was wrapped in flames
from stem TO stern.
In splendid contrast TO the circum-
stances attending the destruction OF
the General Slocum. the crew OF the
Glen Island behaved heroically, and
the name OF Fireman Newman Miller
stands out vividly as that OF a man
who gave mp his life in a vain en-
deayor to rescue a terrified woman.
The fire is believed 10 have been due
to crossed electric wires
The members of the crew who per
ished were in the hold and could not
escape before the flames swept over
them. Mrs. Silkin escaped from her
cabin. but went back after her purse
and was burned to death. How the un-
known passenger met his fate is not

much depend, completely cut oil by

alone enough to demonstrate the
Importance of good roads to this

men OF our cities and the farmers
