The effort 70 railroad several men on
10 the federal bench who could not es.
cape public criticism has failed in Ore
gon.
First a small .coterie tried to put the
ormine on the shoulders Of Hon. Henry
Il. McGinn, but there were serious OBJ
jections.
The obiectors we're political and
otherwise, and Senator Fulton con
cluded that he would not be warranted
in sending in his name.
Then Eastern influences were brought
to bear to railroad the appointment Of
W. W. Cotton, attorney for the Harri-
man system.
The Daily Capital Journal was
about the only newspaper in Oregon
that handled tho subject from the
standpoint Of public interest.
1t was supposed that Mr.. COtton's
appointment would stand, but he hnal.
ly concluded TO not accept, let us hope
not on account OF criticism.
But there was this feature Of the
case that was not enjoyable by the
other aspirants; Cotton was named in
a way that he escaped all comment.
Now at last the matter has shaped
around where the whole bar and the
people generally are in favor Of the
appointment Of Justice r. s. Bean.
Ii Is said their wishes will be re
garded in high quarters. The President
is said to be willing TO consider a man
liked by all the people.
Tho appointment Of Bean would
pour oil on the troubled waters Of Ore
gOn politics. and the President would
seves have cause 10 regret il. The PEG
/ pie Of Oregon have several times passed
on r. s. Bean favorably.

The people should not be influenced
by the talk Of Portland employees Of
Mr.. Hartman. They should realize
that only by using the power placed
in their own hands by the state can
they get results.
The next Development convention,
to be held at Eugene, should not
swerve from its program of holding
Mr.. Hartman and his Oregon mana
gers TO a line Of duty different from
what has prevailed for the past twenty
years. The liberality has all been on
one side in the relations Of the people
toward the corporations.
Mr.. Hartman threw out the sug-
gestion at the Portland banquet that
brains and billions were necessary to
manage these great properties. He
had sunk $3.50, 100000 on the better
ment Of the system.
That is a great deal like the Repub-
lican party claiming great credit for
big crops as a result Of the protective
tariff policy. The Union Pacific and
Central Pasifc had to be rebuilt or GO
out Of business.
THE PEOPLE SHOULD NOT BE
DECEIVED or lullcd into a complais
satisfactiou by big mouthfuls Of
words rolled OFF the ends Of oily
tongues to Portland ~banqueters with
their stomachs filed with turkey
in wine and brandy.
The Hartman lines have taken sew
,nteen millions net earnings out of Or
sgon in ten years on the word Of the J
best business men of Portland. Not
,ne million Of that has been spent on
Jew lines in Oregon.
The true development Of Oregon
means a just relation between the
and the corporations-AN
EQUAL SHARING OF THE BUR
DENs OF TAXATION and t~ranspor-
alton and construction.
That is the purpose Of the Develop :
organizations, and they are in
and sincere in the belief that
he way 20 develop is to develop, and
rot to talk about II several ways.

In the speech Of one Of the Oregon
railroad managers he told how he had
assured the officials Of the Develop
mont League that wherever IL could
DO shown that TEN MILES OF ROAD
IN OREGON WOULD PAY 1T
WOULD BE BUILT.
The Development conventions and
the reports published about the needs
Of railroad development in Oregon
must have been pretty effective 20
secure the above amount of promised
railroad construction in so short a
time.
OF course the above statement was
made at a Portland m~illionaire's ban
quet and was intended for Portland
consumption. The first two items Of
159 miles belong to Idaho and not to
Oregon.
The magnates consider that whatever
they do in Portland il lone for all Or
ogon. 1t should also be noticed that
the principal spokesman Of Mr.. Har-
riman at that banquet did not talk
railroad extension.
They virtually throw all the cold
water on railroad extension they pos
sibly could. One OF them wanted all
the state TO become a push club to get
four millions expended for irrigation
FIRST, and railroads afterwards.
Another talked reclamation Of arid
lands and a deep sea harbor at the
mouth of tho Columbia river, and
never said railroad extension once in
the oourse Of his talk. He was talk
ing to Portland banqueters, not to the
people Of Oregon.
Hartman had already said at tho
same banquet that Mr.. Cotton "Had
always had everything he wanted from
us, and has always been upheld by
nj" etc.
Hartman lives in New York and
finds II easy to come to Oregon when
necessary and tell the people how
many branch limos will be constructed.
But Mr.. Cotton, who is permanent a
ager here, talks otherwise.
which tells the TRUTH Which ono
speaks by the eArdi 1t remains that
for twenty years Oregon has had
practically no railroad construction,
and the question is, HOW MUCH OF
THE PORTLAND BANQUET TALK

NEW BRUNSWICK, n. j., March ls.-Jos-
eph Frank Cordova, the former pastor OF
the South River Methodist Church, was
sentenced by Judge Strong this morning
70 four years In state Prison, Miss Julia
Bovine, for whom be forsook his wife and
three children and with whom he eloped
twice, was not in court when he was sen
tcnced. She anXiOusly awaited the nows
from the court room at the home Of her
aunt, Mrs. George Seigert, at George and
New streets.
In Imposing sentence Judge Strong said
he had received many letters asking for
light sentences for the defendant and
many asking for severity Of punishment.
Appeals for mercy he continued, should
not influence q Court unless light SEN
tence l. deemed best for society, the wrong
door and family relations. In the present
instance these conditions do not exist,
and short term In prison would result IN
early resumption of Illicit conduct, such
as aready caused widespread scandal
and condemnation and great distress in
the domestic circles Of the guilty parties.

Then the Judge imposed a three years
sentence on tho conviction for assault and
one year on the conviction for abandon
ment Each sentence was TO continue
until costs are paid. Cordova took his
sentence calmly. As he was being led
back to jail by the officers his only com
ment was IA to whether the Court could
pass such a sentence, one sentences. to take
| effect at the expiration Of another.
According 10 prison rules prisoners are
! allowed three months OF each year for
! good behavior. As the eE-parson will
| probably be an ideal prisoner he will get
| twelve months of his sentence, or one year
| In all. II the Court had not added the
| costs 10 his sentence this would have re-
! duced the sentence 10 three years. The
| costs amount TO about 500, and he will
have 10 serve a day for every dollar or
800 days extra, which will wipe out the
| year saved for good behavior and compel
him 10 remain In Jail over a month more
| than the four years sentence.
Lawyer Cook announced that he would
! take out a writ q error. This gives him
| twenty days In which 20 file his reasons.
