East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1905-04-25

Two wholesome laws go into effect
in Oregon during the month of May
Zone to impose a penalty of one to
10 years in the penitentiary on the
professional "macque," with which
Pendleton is just now seriously infest-
ed, and another is to make it a mis-
demeanor punishable by fine not
exceeding $500 to permit prostitu-
ton in any building in Oregon, the
owner of the building to be subject
to arrest and trial for the offense.
This is striking at the source of the
evil. As long as respectable" people
can lease buildings for immoral pur-
poses and escape the penalties, the
social vices will continue. But when
the owners of buildings are dragged
into court and made a party to the
detestable crimes then a check will
be placed upon the vices. Very few
landlords will care to be hauled into
the public gaze and made to pay
fines for conducting bawdy houses.
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1905-04-25
HELP THE INDIAN.

The East Oregonian is in receipt of
a letter from Billy Mckay, the full
blood Indian interpreter, well Known
in this city. an allottee on the Una
tilla reservation, and a bright young
man, although an Indian.
The pitiful phases of this letter are
the unconscious complaints contained
in it that the whites do not offer even
a worthy, struggling Indian boy
fair chance to become self-support-
ing
This boy could not secure work
here and is now in Toppenish, Wash,
and writes that he hopes to be able
to find work and earn some money,
as he desires to he independent, but
finds that few white men, although
needing his services, will give him
employment because of his color,
The East Oregonian believes that
the way to make the Indian self-sup-
porting is not to herd him on a res
ervation, under the sharp espionage
OF a government official, but to give
him work and permit him to learn
the ways of making a living by actu-
al experience True, not many of
them are suitable farm hands, but
where one exhibits self-respect and
ability, he should be encouraged.
Surely there are enough Christian
whites in the United States to stoop
down and extend the helping hand to
the worthy ones among the tribes
and lift them to the higher level OF
citizenship and self-supporting labor
Association with the ways of the
world is the only hope for the Indian
Useful education gained from actua
contact with the whites and in tht
white mans employ is the only hope
before the stagnating tribesmen.
1t is pitiful and touching to lister
10 the unconscious arraignment o.
the Christian citizenship of the land
by this Indian boy, whose school ed
ucation is very good, whose letter il
far better than the letters of thu
average day laborer, and whose hop
is to become self-supporting. DESPITE
the handicap of the race which hold
him down.
With none of the white mans pow
er of reasoning to buoy him up ant
bid him persevere, will it be an
wonder should this and other Indi
an boys like him drift back lowe
than they were before the thrill
enlightenment touched their mind
or vitallzed their natures?

SET UP THE WHIPPING POST.

Thanks to Governor Chamberlain,
who recommended it and to the leg
islature which enacted it into law,
the whipping post will be set up in
Oregon after May 22, for the especial
benefit of wife-beaters.
Imagine a husky deputy sheriff,
armed with the cat-o'-nine-tails, his
coat laid aside, his good right arm
barred to give full swing, his feet
braced to steady his blows, admins
tering 20 lashes to some of the drum
ken beasts who are accustomed to
whipping their wives regularly, every
spree, in this and other Oregon
cities
1t will be a sight worthy of public
exhibition, just for the wholesome
example it will set before other sim
ilarly inclined brutes.
The only objection which the East
Oregonian raises against the law, is
that the punishment must be admin
istered within the city or county Jail,
instead of in the public square, where
its full effect would be appreciated
by public and criminal

levy in the city of Pendleton being
but "a mills, and this year, even with
the increased school tax the total
levy in this city is but s5k mills,
while in 1904 the levy in Baker City,
with a low valuation, was &C mills,
or almost double that in this city.
The East Oregonian is not ready to
condemn all officials, wholesale, as
rascals, and it believes that the gem
eral honesty of motives and the gem
eral executive ability in the county
court of Multnomah county will COM
pare favorably with that of the man
agement of the Oregonian.
The plan of Assessor Sigler to raise
valuations and search out more as
sessable property now secreted behind
bank vaults and in accounts that are
the equivalents of gold coin, is COM
mendable and worthy of emulation
by more Oregon assessors.
Not all the honesty in the world is
hidden in the editorial writer's of the
big metropolitan papers. There will
be just as keen a desire to make a
creditable showing in the financial
management of Multnomah county,
under higher valuations as now.
Very few officials will prostitute
their trust in order to prevent a pro-
gressive step in public affairs.
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1905-04-25
ARGUMENTS OF A PEssDnsT.

The Portland Oregonian objects to
Assessor Slgler's plan Of raising
property values for the purpose of
lowering levies, on the ground that
county officials will squander so
much money anyway, and no matter
what the valuation, will hold the
levy up to its present high notch.
This is an unjust arraignment OF
prospective as we'll as present offic-
ials. The Oregonian has no basis for
this accusation except in its own dis
torted and pessimistic mind and mo-
tives.
The result Of the higher valuation:
in Umatilla county has been exactly
TO the contrary. AS Assessor Strain
has raised the valuation the levy hai
correspondingly diminished until ir
1904 the levy was but 1s mills fol
county and state purposes, the tota

TRAINING THE FACULTIES.

Nikola Tesla was talking about his
student days at Prague. 81 remem-
Der well at Prague he said, "an
old professor of great originality and
acumen. This professor insisted on
the value of free use of the percept-
i've faculties, and he was always
pointing out the need for this use in
strange ways.
zone day, on arising to lecture, he
began: Gentlemen, you do not use
your faculties of observation as you
should
"He laid on the table before him a
pot filled with some vile-smelling
chemical compound thick, brown
stuff
"'When l was a student he went
on. 4 did not fear to use my sense of
taste
"He dipped his finger deep into
the pot and then stuck his finger in
his mouth.
"'Taste it, gentlemen. Taste it, he
said, smiling grimly.
"The evil pot passed round the
class, and one after another we dip
ped our fingers it in and then sucked
them clean. The taste of the thick
brown compound was horrible. We
made wry faces and spluttered. The
professor watched us with grim
smile.
"When the pot was finally returned
to him, his thin lips parted, and he
gave a dry chuckle.
at must repeat, gentlemen hi
said. that you do not use your facul
ties of observation. If you had looked
more closely at me you would have
observed that the finger I put in m!
mouth was not the one 1 dipped int
; the pot."-Canadian Machinery.

News From Wilkinsville,

WILKINsvILLE, Feb. 3, 1905
This is ground hog day and if the
traditional story may be relied up
on the winter is broken. Don't
know what Mr.. Mike Sellers will
have to say about it, as Mike is q
great believer in the old signs and
traditions.
DR.. John G.. Black l understand
was called in consultation with DR..
Forrest McKowan in some fever
cases in Mrs. Mary Georges family
who have been greatly afflicted since
last fall, and two of her daughters
have died with typhoid fever
Mr.. Jefferson Blackwell, of Jones'
vile, has moved to the Douglass
place near this place where he will
farm this year, l am told.
The farmers of this county, or at
least a majority of them have re-
solved to hold their cotton for bet
ter prices, even if they have to wait
until next summer. They have
concluded that it is time they were
beginning to take care of themselves,
and if they don't get the cost of
raising their cotton now, to hold it
until they can.
THE TIMES reaches us promptly
every Saturday, and we are always
glad to get it.
The bridge at Skull Shoals is
much needed. We understand that
Union county is ready and has been
for long time to build it's part and
we hope Cherokee will soon con-
clude to build its part. Several of
our people have business interests
on both sides Of the river and it
would be a great advantage to them
as well as the travelling public to
have the bridge repaired at once.

South or North, the Superior Race

No man is born free, and no two

1t is supposable that if the white

population of the South all trans

theorists can readily supply a wiser
plan than this, but nature knows

A committee composed of two
members from house of representa-

in the books and papers in the of

committee found the books badly

such as show receipts of money and
disbursements of State funds were
missing and have not been found.
Upon the whole, the office is in
quite serious tanglc. This is the
most important Office in the State

FARMERS WANT 10 CENTS.
Not willing to Sell Cotton Under
That Price.

Il want to buy your cotton" said
a purchasing agent to farmer liv-
ing several miles above the city yes
terday. What will you take for
it?n
Ten cents" said the farmer.
But" said the agent, that is
far above the market price. 1 am
prepared to give you the best the
market is Offering but | can't afford
anything like 10 cent"
Can't help it, sir. 1t goes for
10 cents and nothing less, " said the
farmer. MY friend, see that
wooden leg? Well, I have fought
through the Civil war and have
seen lots worse times in Grccnville
county than these of today. Those
sixty bales of cotton piled up there
belong to me. You hear that axe
in the piece of wood down yonder
don't you? Well, that man is cut
ting timber right now and l am 90
ing to have it sawed into boards to
c1vcr that same cotton. / expect
TO Keep 1T awhile yet, and Twill not
have to starve to do it either. When
your house feels like Offering 10
cents for it, come around and wc'u
talk it over. Until then good day."
That is a fair example of the
way the farmers are all talking"
said the cotton man who told the
story on himself when he returned
to the city yesterday afternoon.
There is great deal of cotton be-
ing held by the farmers and thew
are waiting for 10 cents, like nv
old friend, the soldier.
The ginners report was only a
partial one this time, dating from
18th Dec. 1904 to Jany. 16, 1905
as many of the ginners refused to
report, but it is significant that cot
ton did not drop lower in price, and
as it had been doing at every re-
port made by the census bureau.
The significance is in the fact that
the farmers are organizing-holding
their cotton and preparing to plant
20 per cent less acreage and to use
25 per cent less fertilizer. led. I

riors of their former slaves. Do we
expect that day ever to come? Is
there anything in the contrasted
histories of the two races to suggest
it?
Here is the nub of the discussion:
White men South have disfranchised
the masses of the black men South.
The North has uttered no protest
has accepted the situation. The
South is doing what it can do to
solve the race problem nationally by
giving the negro education that will
fit him to do well such work as ma
ture has fitted him to do at all. In
all this. the white men of the
South have done and are doing pre-
ciscly what the white men of the
North would do if in their place
no more and no less.
The negroes have nothing further
to hope from a sentimental appeal
to the North in regard either to So
cial or political privileges. They
have gained their freedom from
slavery, and with it they have
gained the right to make good or
get out"-just the same as all the
rest of us. They, must now hoe
their own rowe, or yield the tools to
Ebetter men. Booker Washington
| is working on the right line. There
others More power to them
