withstanding some of his political
hackers, which we are inclined to
believe are not of his seeking, his
candidacy deserves to be seriously
considered. The times call for a
man who, besides having decided
views, has in him elements of
leadership. The field, so far, while
large enough, is not plentlfully
supplied, with those who have
exhibited the proper proportions;
none indeed who stand head and
shoulders above their fellows; and
the time is approaching when a
choice must be made. 1t is quite
important that choice be in all ways
the best possible.

NO NEED OF A CHANGE.

Those who are unfamiliar with
the tradition of the house of repre-
sentatives cannot understand why
a new member has not the influence
that an older member has. Never
theless this tradition stands and a
new member is greatly limited in
his usefulness especially during his
first term no matter if he is a man
of great ability. It takes a member
four terms in the house to esta blish
standing in order that he may eff
fectively represent his district. The
third Wisconsin district is now
represented by such a man, "a man
who has served his terms of break
ing IN and who now stands in pos
itiOn to give, as he always has, the
proper representation to the dis
trict. Can this district afford to
lose the services of a man who has
confidence of the speaker and of the
Republican members of the house
as Mr.. Babcock has? Can we afford
to let new man take his place who
will be practically useless for some
time at least? Mr.. Babcock's atti-
tude on all public matters entities
him to reelection and this attitude
proves him to be broad minded and
liberal in his ideas.

electing and placing in office Wesley

favor his election. We RECONCILE

A man can have no better recon-
mendat1on than this from his home

to manhood; where he has held the
office Of village treasurer for seven
years Ga strong tribute to his
honestly; where he has successfully
followed the business of stock buy

Mr.. Babcock's attitude on the
tariff question is certainly to his
credit. For the last eight years he
has been working for tariff revision
especially in the schedules relative
to lumber, IRON, steel, glass and
other items in which a farming
community is especially interested.
His efforts to convince leading mem.
bers OF the Republican party that
present schedules are not sacred in
his last two terms have been eff
fectlve and a revision along the
lines advocated by him is in sight.

Every miner in Southwestern
Wisconsin is interested in maintain
ing the tariff on zinc. AS this dis
trict becomes more fully developed
this interest will increase. The
present law was so framed that a
decision of the secretary of the
treasury was all that was needed to
permit zinc importations free of
duty thus materially reducing the
price of zinc. Congressman Bah
cocks influence with Sec'y Shaw
was strong enough to get a decision
amply protecting the industry from
the importation of cheap ore from
British Columbia and Mexico. For
this if for nothing else this section
of the country should be more than
grateful to Mr.. Babcock.

A MAN Or VIEWS.

The gubernatorial scrimmage is
drawing to a close and the pot has
come to full boil Gov David
sons Echances for the nomination
appear to be the best and he il
gaming strength each day notwith
standing the efforts of Senator Ls
Toilette to land his man LenrOOt il
the place. CLenroot is little I'm
fortunate and not a little handi
capped in the character and environ
ment of some of his supporters
The selfishness of some of his boom
ers, like the Teller editor for In
stance, the reputation they have
FOR playing politics for what there
is in it-and La Toilette is IN the
same categorie-is likely to cast a
suspicion on Lenroot's candidacy
which will injure his vote at the
primary Tuesday next.
Although the Herald has never
trained with Gov. Davidson it has
recognized him as an essentially
honest man in politics. He does
not belong to the tribe of time
serving and trucking politicians to
whom men of the La Toilette
kidney generally attach themselves,
and he has worthily won reputa-
ton as a man who does things. He
is q man of rugged character and
much given to letting people know
what his opinions and convictions
are on a great variety of subjects.
even though his manner at times
appears brusque. No question ever
comes up for decision in which there
is any doubt as to where Jake
stands; and his earnest advocacy
given always with transparent
candor and disinterestedness has
been of value to many good cause.
In the present crisis he has been
consistent in advocating the prin-
ciples which majority of the peo-
pie want and represents them per-
haps better than anv man who has
yet been mentioned for the Office of
chief executive Of the S ate. Mr..
Davidson is in many respects a
typical North He was
born in Norway and is doubtless
proud Of it, as he has right to be,
but he never seeks to make the
Fact conspicuous in order to trade
upon it. He does not appeal to
nationality prejudices, but is con-
tent that every tub should stand
upon it's own bottom. He is close
to the people, knows them by in
innate association and tries TO look
at things from their point Of view.
He doesn't put on any frills, and
calls a spade a spade and not an
agricultural instrument. And not

INDORSE ROOSEVELT.

The East Oregonian believes that
the democrats of Oregon assembled
in Portland today will do the most
graceful and commendable thing that
could mark their proceedings if they
heartily commend President Roose-
welt in his fight on official graft and
against the trusts.
Is not the program being carried
out by this fearless president demo-
cratic to the backbone? Is not his
fight on the trusts one of the princi-
pal demands of the democratic party?
Is not his fearless campaign on pub
lie grating one of the cardinal doc
trines of democracy?
Then why not publicly and cordial
complished, no matter through whom,
is not the aim of pure politics con-
summated? And does not President
Roosevelt deserve the cummendation
of democrats more keenly since he
initiated his reforms while his own
party was in the heyday of its power,
with no probability of being unseated
or hindered in its course, in the i'm
mediate future?
Roosevelt is an American, not a re-
publican, except so far as republican,
ism goes with Americanism. All par
ties who love cleanliness and fearless
ness can and should publicly indorse
him and thus encourage him and his
successors in cleansing the govern
ment of grafters.

A MECHANICAL WIZARD.

Harry Houdini, the International
prison breaker and handcuff king,
gave a remarkable demonstration in
the United States Jail at Washington.
The warden of the prison invited him
to make the test. Houdini was al
lowed first to examine the locks and
doors and was then taken to a cell.
searched stripped nude, and in that
condition was locked in another cell.
The cell containing his clothes was
also locked. The apartment in which
he was left was the one which had
been occupied 10 months by Guiteau
the assassin.
The warden makes the following
official statement: Mr.. Houdini in
about two minutes managed to es-
cape from that CELL and then broke
into the cell in which his clothing
was locked up. He then proceeded to
release from their cells all the prfs-
oners on the ground floor. There
was positively no chance for any COL
lusion or confederacy. Mr.. Houdini
accomplished all of the above men,
toned feats, in addition to putting on
all his clothing, in 81 minutes"
How was it done? That is pre-
| cisely what the officials would like to
know, for the condition of the test
was that the expert should be left
| alone.-Scientific American.

AFRAID OF THE LIGHT.

Mayor Lane Of Portland. has adopt
ed Mayor Tom Johnson's method of
''raiding" Objectionable houses. In
stead of rushing into those places
and seizing those discovered there.
he has stationed a policeman at the
entrance. This policeman is on duty
at all times and takes notes of those
who patronize the places.
Dives cannot bear publicity, and
patrons of such places are afraid of
the light, and so the Objectionable
joint is thus put out of business
through lack of patronage. The hab-
itues stink away and refuse to pass
ualc- t,..t c.-;?'c.l.-2-o Of the police
man, and prominent citizens who
were formerly frequenters of the
places are found skipping in and out
of dark alleys in that locality no
more.
Light will raid joints more success
fully than policemen. Place them
under surveillance and make a rec
ord of the habitues and they will soor
go out of business. They cannot stand
publicity. They cannot thrive in day
Night nor under the eye of the watch
full police.

LEARN 10 GROW.

Do you grow In mind and soul
As the changing seasons roll?
Do you reach, in master might,
AS tree. toward the light?
Are you one responsive string
In Gods minstrelsy of spring?
Aren't you better, don't you grow
Don't the war mblood warmer glow,
AS kinship most divine
Links you to earth's royal line?
Lives, like wheels, must move or
rust
Souls must grow-or be as dust;
Minds must strive to higher planes,
Or be slaves In servile chains!
Nature never rests nor shirks,
Every wheel and spindle works
Every throbbing thing of life
Stands, n fighter in the strife.
Looking up into Gods eyes
Beaming softly from the skies
Do you feel no thrill of power
Flash through brain and hand that
hour?
AS you feel his pulses beat :.
In the clods beneath your feet,
LEAFS no daring to your heart?
Know you not your kingly part?

CANNERY FOR FREEwATER.

The East Oregonian hopes to see
fruit cannery established at F'reewa-
ter. An effort is now being made in
this direction and the Umatilla Coun-
y Development league, Pendleton
Commercial association and all other
agencies interested in the development
of the county should lend their aid
in interesting capital in this project.
Hundreds of thousands of pounds
of fruit are now produced annually
in the Freewater district and that
which is not hurried into the market
at the highest tide must be sold at re-
duced prices and often goes beg
ging" toward the latter end of the
season.
A cannery at Freewater would af-
ford a ready home market at all times
for all grades of fruit grown in that
vicinity and would encourage the ex-
tension of the fruit growing industry
in that excellent district. Walla
Walla has leaned long enough upon
the Freewater and Milton districts.
These towns should get credit for
thier fine fruits, and the East Ore
gonian hopes TO see an Independent
market established in which all
grades of fruit will command the best
price at all times. This paper invites
capital to investigate the subject

WHO Is FOLK

When Governor Folk was cam
paigning Missouri, in 1904, he had
with him a few spellbinders whom he
used for the opening speeches at his
meetings, while he reserved himself
for the closing effort.
one of these spellbinders began at
a meeting in Sedalia. He touched on
national issues for half an hour or so
and then got down to the state cam
paign.
He strobe out to the edge of the
platform. raised his arms above his
head and said, with great declama-
tory effect: "Who is oJseph w. Folk?'
He paused for reply. Then he
thundered again: "And who, l ask

Still there was no reply.
With one last, gigantic effort he
roared: again 1 ask you. who Is

The Pacific Monthly for March is

mirror of western thought and senti-
ment and offers a field for the ex-
ploitation of western romance and
fiction. The west Is rich in lore,
versatile in genius and abounding in
subjects Of fascinating interest, all OF
which will gradually find expression
through the western magazine, IL it is
justly patronized by western people
