Chase and the Ohio Idea.

Senator J. B. Foraker in describing
the life, character and public services Of
Salmon P. Chase recently said of him:
CIT is probably safe to say that he
had membership in more political par
ties with less enjoyment in any Of them
and with less mutual obligation arts
ing therefrom than any other public
man America has produced.
Chase was a rival Of Lincoln and
Seward for the republican nonin-
alton in 1860 and believed he
had the place "cinched. !" s He
was again secret or stealthy can
didate for Lincoln s shoes in 1864, when
the occupant Of the White House was
fighting not only the battles of the
union but the battle Of decent and or
derby precedence in the republican party
as we'll. For third time Chase was
willing to be party candidate, and
this strangely enough was when he was
was ready to take the democratic nomi-
nation lin 1868. He thought this nom
nation was practically assured to him
when the convention was stampeded to
Seymour. 5ss< ~
Chief Justice, Chase appears to have
been typical Ohio man always hungry
for office and for change of office. Ills
political career is strongly marked with
selfshness Of the weaker sort. He had
not Lincoln's steadfastness nor Sew
ards capacity for self-abnegation. Was
! It because he came from Ohio9 Is there
something in the atmosphere of the
| buckeye state which makes men phe-
nomenally fond Of themselves Ohio has
produced many great and serviceable
men for the union and Salmon P. Chase:
in spite of his weakness, was one of
/ the greatest of them, yet ne seemed to
have frailty entirely out Of charac-
ter with the positions be held and the
relations he sustained toward other
men. It may have been entirely per-
sonal, but it bears a marked resem-
blance to the Ohio disease for office as
we know it today.
It seems never to have been possible
to hold a republican national conven-
ton without an Ohio candidate. There
is no promise Of immunity in 1906,
either, for Joseph Benson Foraker is
assuming a threatening attitude.

Ground Broken for Washington
Building.
Special Correspondence

y
for the Lewis and Clark Exposition
was dedicated Saturday. The cere-
monies were attended by Governor
Mead and party, by President Goode
and other Exposition officials, and
a number of spectators.
Governor Mead and his party
were driven to the Exposition
grounds in a four horse tally-ho
coach, arriving at the site shortly
after eleven O'Clock. The day was
perfect.
President Goode of the Exposition
welcomed the Washington officials,
and in few words presented the
site to Governor Mead
"It has been the desire of the
people of Oregon, and especially
the directors of the Lewis and
Clark Exposition, that Washington
might feel that the Exposition was
as much her fair as Oregon's," he
said. "Washington has shown her
willingness to take this view of the
matter, and has made magnifi-
cent appropriation. We are indeed
glad to welcome our sister state to
participation in the Exposition, and
it is pleasure to present this site to
the state which has come so gen
erously to our assistance.
Governor Mead said that he had
felt, with the people of Washington,
that Washington must take part in
the fair, and he was glad to accept
the site.
81 am glad to see the spirit of
friendliness, the fraternal feeling,
being engendered in this way" he
said. 1--WE expect that the fair will
attract thousands of people to the
great Pacific Northwest, and Wash
ington realizes the Importance of
being properly represented at the
fair which Oregon people are to
hold. We have come to call the
fair "our" Exposition.
President Goode then handed the
Governor spade, and Mr.. Mead,
with the remark that he was ac-
customed to the implement, turned
the first spadeful of earth, while the
crowd applauded. This concluded
the ceremony.
The site chosen by Washington
officials for their building is as we'll
situated as any on the grounds.
The building will stand on a
beautiful plot, the eastern part of
the Exposition grounds. Its To-
cation on the shore of Guilds Lake
makes the place particularly de-
sirable. The view from the build
ings will include the main Exposi-
ton picture, with the rows of
Exhibits Palaces to the south and
west, and the Govern ment Penn
sula, with its magnificent Govern
ment Buildings, across the lake.
In the distance rise the lofty peaks
of the Cascade range, Mount Hood,
Mount St. Helens, Mount Rainier
and Mount Adams being paine
visible on clear day.
The Washington state commission
has under consideration several
admirable plans for the building,
and will decide on one of them
within a few days, in order that
work on the structure may be be-
gun without delay. The plans
under consideration provide for
building which shall show in
convincing way the great forest re-
sources of Washington. Washing
tons exhibit, part of which will be
housed in the pavilion, will in
clude in a comprehensive way dis
plays to show all the varied indus
tries of the Evergreen state.

The Fight in Rhode Island.

It is heartrending to find the Democ- racy of Rhole lsldnd-"little Rhody" as Henry Clay used to call her--linlng up in the fight for reform and the just representation of her people in the affairs of the State. as we'll as for the great Fundamental principles for which the party has always stood. No other State in the Union has been so com pletely In the grip of bossism; and no exemplar of that principle of machine morsely than its Senator, Nelson w. Aldrich, who is the head and front of the Republican influence in the Senate of the United States. The late Senator Quay wielded the power of a much larger machine in the great State of or oppressive than Rhode Island has so long suecumbed to under the Ald- rich regime. That hrave Democrat, pr. L. F. c. Garvtn, has within the past three years swept the State twice by the force of his high character and tie State. He met defeat last year, due 60 the unfortunate pendency of a Pres idential election, in which Roosevelt had plurality of nearly 11O00 votes, victories have hitherto been fruitless to a large extent, because of the rotten borough system in the State, through which the ring can always return n sufficient number of Senators who can ernor, who unfortunately is without the power of veto. Meanwhile, how ever his fearless and unstinted denun- ciation of the cOrruptionists who have so long dominated the State is having to the need of a change in the constie tuition of the State as we'll as in both State and national policies.

American Travelling Bags.

 It seems that General Stuart Beatson about two months ago bought a trunk and recommended the same to Sir Ar thur Riggs, equerry to the princess. He immediately ordered two to be sent up to Abergeldie Castle.

touching upon life insurance matters
 They refer in terms of shocking inur-
 banity to the insurance presidents who
 have So generously contributed policy
 funds, saying that these philanthropists
 are guilty Of larceny and calling them
 thieves. This raises an fnteresting
 question. Who. in fact. is a thief? Di-
 kindly and fruitful interest the insur-
 ance presidents had been taken in poll
 tics, The Springfield Republican also
 called them gang of thieves and ex-
 headed for Sing Sing. This unchris.
 ton language of The Republican pain ed
 Dr. Lyman Abbott exceedingly. In his
 religiously weekly, The Outlook. he
 lending editor. and pointed out to him
 that thief Is not a man who steals far from 1t. He is not even man who
 steals and gets found out. A thief, according to the charitable doctor. Is
 one who. steals, gets found out and is convicted in court.
 The authority of pr, Lyman. Abbott settles the question. We must accept springfieid Republican and The New York Merchants Association are both wrong. The insurance presidents are not not thieves. because. although they have not yet been convicted formally in court; and there Is nothing more to say upon the subject except to note the progress we are making in the science of ethics. This science. like all things human and divine, is subject to the great law of evolution. It began among rude, perhaps a semi-barbar- tion Thou shalt not steal" Tn those primitive times thief was evidently defined as one who stole. This was the uncouth beginning. The next step was taken to harmonize business and religion, and was a decided gain on the side of commercial liberty. The pre- cept now ran, Thou shalt not steal and get found out" with the weight upon heslatter clause. This made things de- cided1y easier for good men who wished to undertake missionary labors like Me- Curdy's, but 1t evidently lacked breadth. was still hampered by too retained too many traces of It's barbar- ous origin. Another step was desira- ble which should leave men who wished to contribute to good causes free to raise the necessary funds. entirely without restriction. third clause was added. and the body of the precept was somewhat modified, placing 1t in its modern highly-evolved form Steal if necessary to a good cause Get found out if you can't help 1t. But never. never get convicted"
 feet form of the moral law upon steal ing has been found of the greatest ben eft to benevolent causes of all sorts, and especially to educational institu- tions. One could hardly conceive how men like Rockefeller Mccall and Mo Curdy could have accomplished their vast and varied benefactions without it.
