BETTER APPOINTMENTS DE.
MANDED.

The Alaska scandals and land Office
disclosures would indicate that better
standards have got TO be adopted for
federal appointments in Oregon.
The standards demanded by President
Roosevelt have not been fully accepted
by the Republican leaders.
The crowd TINT wants the federal
appointments now pending in Oregon
contain the names Of some excellent
men and a whole lot of poor ones.
Qualifications honesty, strict intogri-
~ are not inconsistent with being a
good Republican
The drunkard, the gambler, the slot
machine fend, or the man otherwise
eAreloss aud reckless in his conduct are
not wanted.
Neither does the party owe man
anything who merely worked his posi-.
zion in the legislature 90 get some club
over the delegation
Appointees should not only be clean
aud able but should be men whose
character and abilities stand for some
thing in the community,
Too many men are holding federal
Office all over the country whose post

occupy toward the masses Of the peo.

Bits About Dress.
(By CYNTHIA Crow

NBy tNnJhia breF.)
Dress trimmings will be brighter this
year than formerly.
While brown is a popular color for
suits, blue is a staple color for fall and
winter.
Exceedingly elegant gowns will be in
good taste if made in the gray shades
The cheaper grays are not good.
Plum and mulberry are new shades
in red.
The new bright cloth and velvet will
be used with somber suits and gowns
They are especially good as vests, cuffs
and revers.
Copper shades are popular and will
be combined with colOrs which seem i'm.
possible in such combination. It takes
an artist to use colors with effect. Red
is about the only one of the fashion
able shades with which the copper tints
will not be used.
Shades of the same color will be used
together more than will contrasting
shades.
Silk gowns viii be lined with a
lighter shade of the color of the gown.
The round full skirts require stiffen-
ing. Many of these have crinolinc to
point above the knees.
The length of the round skirt will
10 eithpr ankla langth mr. iust touchino
the floor. The ankle length will be
worn more than at first seems likely,
being employed in the reception gown
as well as in the street gown.

the people good construction. The
change from III inch floors TO e inch
floors is a small mistake. but will cost
dearly in the long run.
In the same way If construction is
to be slighted all the way through a
cheap building will be dear building
in the long run. It is recalled that
a number Of state buildings had TO be
re.foored in a few years.
In the same way the exterior walls
should be Of good pressed brick and
not have concrete copings over the
windows to stain the brick.
The public have. some rights to con
sideration in the matter Of a public

The public must take what they can

construction aud poor material Let
the people at least get what they pay

a WrgER RAr1RoAp PoLroY.

Some Of the newspapers are publish.
ang stories how Oregon will see hun
5reds Of miles Of railroads built this
coming year.
It is high time this policy we're
adopted If the present railroads expect
so hold this field.
Last year it is stated only eight miles
of railroad were built and Oregon
stood at the bottom Of the ladder.
It is to be hoped this is something
besides mere newspaper talk and that
the poliey Of stranguIatiou Is really
ON.
The revival Of interest in railroad
building is probably due 10 part TO
the passage Of the KiIlingsworth bill.
Under the operations Of that law any
,shuf branch line is able to live and
,gsa ears and rates with ordinary good
Ensaagement.
There will probably he more miles
of trolley lines built than Of standard
sguage railroad but there are signs that
both kinds are coming.
They cnnnot come too soon for Ore
.gon or for the benefit Of the railroads
themselves The policy Of repression
must become one OF aggression aud ex-
pansion.
One Of the purposes Of the William.
sAte Valley Development convention
wAs to stimulate railroad construction
and promote trolley lines.
Better train service will be needed
80 bring the visitors TO the Lewis and
Clark fair to the remote parts Of the
state.
Ono OF tho demands Of the commit
tee on transportation appointed by
that convention will be that as many
people as possible get into the interior
OF the state.
While the railroad companies have
dens a great deal the past few years
20 tnild up the state, they will be called
upon TO do more in the building Of
nsw lines. That has been too much
neglected.
In any line Of business or manufac-
turing the wise policy involves exten.
,siou OF tho business. enlarging the
plant, developing new fields Of bust.
ness, fully occupying the territory.
That Is what the railroads OF Ore.
gOn must do II they would meet the
situation fairly in their own interest
and the people believe they will do so.

SHAME ON BUFFALO BILL

Denied a divorce from the patient
wife who shared the hardships Of his
youth. accused Of excessive drunkenness
and Of driving his daughter to the
grave by malicious accusations against
her mother and his wife, Buffalo Bill,
once the proud hero Of frontier stories
is now a desplsed old reprobate, stripped
Of honor and naked before the gaze Of
the world.
Thirty years ago, the wife whom he
has acucsed Of being incompatible
and jealous, lived in a sod hut on the
North Platte. daring the murderous
Indians, nursing her infants, deprived
Of civilized associations and bereft Of
all the pleasures Of a luxurious home,
all because of her love for her then
gallant scout and hunter, Buffalo Bill.
As she has grown old in his service,
she became despised and at last he
determined to east her Off in her old
age, for more dashing young woman
whom he had found among his show
women.
Instead OF granting his divorce, the
Denver court strips the old rake
naked, and points the finger of scorn
at him Let him take his medicine.
Hereafter let ms mention his name
only in disgust The man who casts
of his wife because she has grown old
is the worst yet

board bill and Bill s bill board that if
Bills board bill bored Bill as much
as Bill's bill board bored Bill, why
not "board" Bill with a board from

what Ais Russia.

With clatter Of hoofs the party
dashed down the way and into the
great gates Of the palace, but as they
passed there was to see man who
sat in the carriage. the man for whom
all the splendor of arms and panoply
was called into being. IT was but the
briefest glance, a mere peg on which to
hang a first impression, but it told on
me with an effect of dismay. Framed
and overshadowed in the black hood of
his carriage, saw, bolt upright and
motionless, little figure Immediately
neat, with a face Of dead pallor. Fair
hair and beard duly dressed to a point
failed to withdraw from it a quality Of
dollishness; an utter vacancy, the empi
tiness Of soul-weariness and futility,
governed it altogether. Against its
dark background, it stood forth as
blank and white as paper, a thing awful
in its corpse-like impassivity, yet pit
liable, sorrOw-stirring, and sad as a
child in pain. The hands, I think, were
crossed loosely on the knees, and /
know that the eyes stared unwinkingly
in front. 1t was tragic effigy of
WEAKNESS that the curiassiers guard
ed, body shrining a soul worn and dis
tressed, a visible and warning token of
the dread that stalks through Russia.
-Four seconds. and the carriage was
past; but 1 wondered then if perhaps
some humble. czar-worshiping man
might not have seen his emperor face
to face for the first time in the grimly
Intellectual doll that flashed past be-
tween the horsemen.-April Mcclure s.
