The people of Oregon never realized
the Importance and value of first
class daily newspaper more than dur
ing the trial of Senator Mitchell.
Through the enterprise of the Ore
gonian, in printing a complete
stenographic report of each days pro-
ceedings, they were enabled to read
the evidence in its entirety and to
pass intelligent judgment upon the
merits of the case. The expense and
labor connected with preparing this
vast amount of matter each day must
have been enormous, and the fact that
the task was successfully accom-
plished speaks volumes for the
efficiency of the Oregonian's re-
portorial staff and the equipment of
it's mechanical department 1t is tests
like these that distinguish the real
from the make-b believe newspapers.

public career is at an end. While he
may fight on in the higher courts in a
frantic effort to clear his name Of the
blot upon it, the people of Oregon
have passed upon his case, and the
verdict is Guilty" This is the
verdict that will stand in the minds
of the people, no matter what future
results may be reached through legal
technicalities.
Remembering his good deeds and
his kindly, generous qualities, let US
cover his shortcomings and imper-
fections with the soft mantle of
charity, and gently draw the veil that
will forever hide from public gaze the
broken, tottering form of Oregon's
disgraced Senator-John Fl. Mitchell.
