following editorial expression on the
above subject from the pen of Editor
Chase of the Washington Bee. 1t is
worthy of careful peTusal and con-
sideration by every colored citizen in
terested in the wellbeing and advance
ment of his race:
The colored people in this country
have been considering the invitation
extended to them to join the Catholic
church. This proposition is being Sc
riously considered by some of the
leading representatives of the col
ored race. 1t is argued that the Cath
olic church is less prejudiced to the
Negro than any other denomination in
the world 1t is also true that most
all other denominations have adopted
rules and passed resolutions to bar
out the Negro. The white Presby-
terian church, the white Methodist,
and a number of the white Southern
Baptist are opposed to the Negro. 1t
is also a notorious fact that the Cath
olic church is receiving more consid-
GRAFTON from this administration than
any other denomination, which shows
that it is a strong factor in the body
polite. Since the Catholic church is
favorably disposed toward the Negro
and will give him greater protection
than any other denomination or polit-
ical party, there is nothing for the
Negro to do but to join the Catholic
church. If all anti Catholic denomi-
nations are opposed to the Negro and
the Catholic church, and since the
Catholic church gets what it wants,
it will be good politics for the Negro
to look out for himself and go where
1t will be to his best interest. We
never read in the public press of any
Catholic convention or Catholic church
denouncing the Negro and declaring
that the Negro is not good enough for
al
God. The white Methodist, Baptist
and Presbyterians declare that ths
Negro is not good enough for him to
serve God with them. They must pray
separate and apart from them. The
Negro has declared that there is not
much efficacy in such a religion. Till
man, Vardaman, Williams and their
associates belong to the Southern
Methodist denomination, and so long
as they continue to be members of
that denomination there is no hope
for the Negro Baptist, Presbyterian
and Methodist. The Catholics sue
ceed because they are united and de-
mand recognition. The administra-
tion will not refuse this church. There
is no department under this govern
ment that will attempt to impose
upon Catholic. When the Pope of
Rome and the Catholic church speak
there is something doing. Let the
Negro try the Catholic church.

HON. H. W. GooDE, PRESIDENT.

The election of Hon. H. w. Goode
to the presidency of the Oregon
Water Power & Railway Co., on Mon
day last, was a just recognition of the
extraordinary business ability of a
successful man of affairs. Mr.. Goodies
sterling worth as citizen, his indie
fatigable energy, his progressiveness
the mOdernness of his methods and
his unusual success combine to rec
Ommend him as the proper man for
such an important place in the con
duct of the affairs of such an exten-
sive and rapidly growing enterprise.
The new owners of the O. w. P. prop
critics were not slow to recognize
these qualities in Mr.. Goode.
An entire new set of officials was
elected. They are also officers of the
Portland Railway Co., which latter
corporation will direct the operation
of all the trolley lines of the system.
This company has entire control Of
every mile of electric railway in the
county, total of about 1856 miles.
The patrons of these lines are to be
congratulated on the fact that Hon.
H. w. Goode is at the head of this

Portland, although more than three
fourths of its voters are really Re-
publicans, to be classed hereafter as

Democratic district attorney and may

that direction? Should the Republi-
cans of this city not pull themselves

important or notable state office, and
give Mr.. Withycombe big rousing
majority here?
We think this is duty of Republi-
cans, as such, and we believe they are
going to perform it.

However, around these points
governor, senator and sheriff-will
center the fight on the first Monday
in June, and between now and then.
Incidentally to the senatorial fight,
there may also be some DETECTION of
votes from Republican candidates for
the legislature, here and in other
counties, and it would not be surpris-
ing if an unusual number Of Demo
Gratis slipped in throughout the state;
yet we apprehend that the legislature
will be strongly Republican. as usual

country.

AS to senator, the case is more com
plicated That there will be Repub-
lican groundswell against Mr. Bourne
everybody knows; what nobody yet
knows is its scope, extent, force and
effect. The difference between this

BILE to be hot kettle of fish on fry
in Salem. next winter.
1t may be that if, as will almost GER
tainly be the case, the legislature has
large Republican majority, Mr..
Bourne, as the popular nominee, by a
small plurality, will be elected with
out opposition or friction, but this
seems not to be expected by anybody.
Besides, a probably stronger minority
than usual there certainly will be a
considerable number Of Republican
members opposed to the election of
Mr.. Bourne, and some, perhaps, who
will carry their opposition to an ex-
treme point. 1t is within the range
of possibilities that these opposing
elements may combine so as to defeat
the Republican nominee.
On the other hand, having received
the nomination under the primary law,
Mr.. Bourne will undoubtedly claim the
office and insist upon his election by
the legislature. If he hasn't votes
enough to accomplish this, he almost
certainly will have enough to prevent
the election of any one else, and to
make trouble of various kinds for his
opponents. If he could hold up" the
legislature some years ago, and pre-
vent an organization and all legislation
as he is credited or charged with do
ing, surely he could do the same now,
if he chose to pursue similar tactics
But all this is as yet nebulous in en-
bryo. After the June election and its
results are scanned and analyzed we
can tell much better what is likely to
happen at Salem next winter, though
even then there may be a good deal
of guesswork about it.
The new age., 1906-05-05

The only other office about which
there is any doubt, or that will be
contested warmly and strongly, in
this county, is that of Sheriff The
present sheriff, Democrat, was
swept into office two years ago on the
crest of wave of moral reform" 3"
but won not so much after all on that
account as because his opponent was
looked upon and generally considered
as a chronic pap-sucker and CRATER
How well Sheriff Word has lived up
to promises and the anticipations of
his ardent supporters we shall take
occasion to notice more particularly
hereafter. 1t may be said at this time,
however, that he no doubt was direct
ly instrumental in breaking up public
gambling in Portland, but it might be
added that any sheriff would have
been forced to do the same by public
sentiment, or at least that no sheriff
in future could allow open and Iii
censed" gambling such as was carried
on under the Williams and former ad-
ministrations. AS to strict and cour-
ageous enforcement Of all laws, we
have casually noticed that saloons are
all open on Sunday contrary to law. We
are not saying here that it would be
wise to try to have a tightly-closed
town in this respect, only suggesting
that it is not quite consistent for the
admirers of the sheriff to claim too
much, or hold him up as a demigod
of official virtue and effectiveness.
