The Western Christian Advocate
quotes "learned judge" as saying that
"only as the principles OF christianity
shall prevail in the minds and hearts of
men, and in society at large, can there
be any adjustment OF public rights in
the present industrial and commercial
competition. While legislation can not
be delayed until an application of
Christian principles removes the trusts
from our midst, still there is no doubt
that the commandment "Thou shalt love
thy neighbor as thyself" furnishes the
rule for the ultimate solution of all
economic problems.

Chairman Shonts, OF the Panama
canal commission, according to the
Washington correspondent Of the Hous.
ton (Texas) Post, said in conversation
with friend recently that it would be
utterly ;mpracticable to build lock
canal across the isthmus, or rather that
such canal would be of such little prac.
tical service that it was essential that the
canal to be built should be at sea level.
Chairman Shonts is further credited with
the slater ent that the cost OF sea level
canal would be 5000, 900, 900. The esti-
mates of some of those who have figured
out the probable cost of such canal
reaches one billion dollars.

SUPPRESSED NEWS.

In speaking Of the Oppenheimer case,
the Evening Illusion undertakes to evade
the odium of suppressing news, "by re.
quest" the publication OF which was a
duty owed the public, to put it on guard
against man who has made petty
swindling business ever since his ar.
rival, and whose character was known
to the Bulletin prior to any criminal
charges being made against him. Here
are the alleged reasons given for the
suppression:
GAS to The Bulletin not mentioning
the Herald's lawsuit, The Bulletin did
not care to mention the matter further
for the reason that only supreme con.
tempt can mark the following of prose-
cution such az the one now pending at
the colonel's instigation. A case which
means the piling up of Tremendous ex.
pense against the county to satisfy an
alleged demand against a man who
claims to have money due him from the
Herald Printery, and not being able to
get settlement in the matter took funds
collected for other work in order to settle
accumulated debts"
The paper that will suppress such
news as the arrest and binding over to
the superior court of ouch a swindler.
through, "infuence," is a pretty speci.
men to criticize another publication.
That the Evening Illusion was so Gin.
fluenced," has become notorious through
the open Dragging Of Oppenheimer, that
"You will not see anything in the Bule.
tin about me-, I've got that paper fixed"
Had the offender been an honest work.
ingman in trouble through little too
much fire water, his doings would have
been awarded large wood type on the
front page, as was the case over an alter.
cation at the G street dock a week ago
last Sunday. Or. some disreputable ten.
derloin row, such as that Of Friday morn
ing, it would receive attention to the ex.
tent OF half page in the Illusion, both
of which cases, by the way, were thrown
out of court.
The doctrine advocated that the injured
party in case OF robbery is to be an OBJ
ject Of contempt for bringing the robber
into court, carried to its logical conclu.
sion, would mean the abandonment OF
all protection to life and property by law.
and return to the days Of six.shooter
law and Judge Lynch.
The claim of this man that this Office
owes him any sum of money is simply a
lie upon which he has been trading for
some weeks. We have invited him and
his attorney to bring action if they
thought we owed him anything, but they
declined. The fact of that matter is tina
Oppenheimer had assigned all the money
due him before it was earned, to pay
ancient hotel bills, borrowed money,
and to redeem worthless checks issued
by him, and the collections made by
him on account OF the Herald Printery
were utterly without authority or color
Of right.

There is nothing in the west 80 admin

There is nothing in the west 80 admir-
able as is the Western spirit. To
carp and criticize ones home and
surroundings does no good and is apt to
work harm. Pride in the local town is
sometimes made a subject for jeering
comment. A stranger sees little to JUS
tify the vanity of the native over his
little village. Neverthel ass, it is that
spirit which builds up cities ami makes
them prosperous and great. Every town
has something worthy of pride in it;
every town has drawbacks. Pick out
the best and exult in them. Remove the
worst That is the way to make successes
in towns, states, governments and indi.
viduals.-West Coast Trade.
