Cannot Change.


The following decision dis
patched from Salem, Friday,
plainly Shows that candidates for
Office cannot switch:
Attornev-General Crawford,
in response to a query from Sec
retary of State Dunbar, rendered
an opinion that a candidate for
Office uuder the direct primary
law cannot withdraw or amend
his declaration OF principles after
having filed them with the Secre-
tary of State.
The Attorney-General says
that there is no provision in the
law for the recording OF amend
ments or the withdrawal of one
petition that another may be
filed; that to permit a candidate
10 file new declaration would
cause endless confusion and rem
der the record kept by the secre-
tary useless and valueless.
According to this ruling, the
candidate who finds his declar-
alton OF principles not in har-
mony with popular sentiment will
find it impossible to change his
principles.

There was wreck on the South
ern Pacific some time during Wed
nesday night or early Thursday
morning at Delta, California. The
wreck Was caused by a slide. On
the occurrence of the first slide it
was thought that a tramp who
Was stealing ride had been killed
and while searching for his remains
a second slide occurred killing three
people and the train being a double
header and drawn by two engines,
both engines were ground to pow
der. An engineer and fireman were
among the killed. It is thought
possible that six or eight people
were killed. Trains were consider
ably delayed by the accident.
1t is stated that according to
late advices the war department has
authorized the establishment Of
brigade camp in every state in the
union. 1t is known that California
and Washington each have govern
ment quarters for the soldiers, but
Oregon alone of the coast states has
no such barricks. Members of the
Citizens League will remember
that about a wear ago Lieut.. Ouin-
Ian called the attention of that body
to the matter and urged that Cor

location of such brigade camp.

1,ks of wellington,s vanity.

Among the portraits at the Royal
academy, London, there are some
which could tell stories; some with
little touches of idiosyncrasies of sub
jects no less than of painters. Is the
story of Lawrence's portrait OF the
Duke of Wellington commonly known?
The duke had only one vanity-his
wrist was like steel. Now, when he
was given the sword of state to carry
1t was his infinite delight that he was
able to carry it upright; all his prede-
cessors had to slope 1t toward the
shoulder. He would go down to pos
terity, he resolved, glorified by the
power OF his wrist.
In vain Sir Thomas LAWRENCE point
ed out that, as a matter of art, IL
would never do; that the sight of a
man perennia!ly carrying sword from
the wrist would fatigue those who
Looked at his picture. The duke in
sisted upon having his way. Lawrence
did manage to smuggle in cushion
upon which the duke seemed to rest
his elbow, but close examination shows
that arm and cushion do not meet.

and even the stern warrior rebelled.

That night Crook came into Omaha
and had an all-nights conference with
Tibbles, then an editorial writer on a
newspaper. A campaign of Indians
rights was mapped out, and both men
started out the next day to carry on,

Crook was to delay returning the In.

from the United States court on the

attention of the court for two days. On
the third day Mr.. Webster spoke for
six hours. And during all the pro-
ccedings the courtroom was packed
with the beauty and culture of the
city.
Towards the close of the trial the

at white heat, and the judge made no
attempt at suppressing the applause
which broke out from time to time.

INDIANS CALLED MooUIs.
How the Hopi People Came to BE
Designated by Objection
able Name.

To those few in the outer world who
ever heard of them at all they are
mostly known as Moquis--thIs
through the publicity gained by their
annual Snake Dance, says the Crafts
man. But Moqui or Moki is mis-
homer. Hopi Is how they would have
us know them--because 1t is right.
and because 1t means something to
them and Is justly symbolic of their
racial characteristics. Peaceful-gen-
tie is its signifcance--ard the worst
word they know to apply to an Of
fender Is ka-bopi--the negative OF
Hoji-or pas-ka-hopi the superlative
of this; and anyone as bad as this
is hopeless, Moki In their language
means dead, and the accepted theory
of its first application to them as a
tribal name Is that the Navajo their
longtime enemy in spirit Of deri-
sion so called them on account Of
their distaste for warfare, and love
of a quiet-stay-at-home life. Accord
ing to the Navajo code they were
dead ones" From the Navajo, whose
country entirely surrounds the Hopi,
the early traders and settlers acquired
the word Moki before ever seeing she
Hopi; and from the trader It easily
passed without question to the govern
ment representatives, so it now stands
as the official appellation in the Indian
department But ask Hopi IL he
is Moqui-his quick resentment will
be convincing enough.
