lied and values were daily fading

What was the cause? What cause
can be sufficient for such dire results?
Whatever it was, there is one thing
we know to be certain, which is, that
the blame lay in the short comings
of man, as every condition beyond
the control of man were favorable to
boundless prosperity.

The invariable accompaniment of
the worldwide business depressions
that have occurred in the absence Of
crop failures, pestilence or wars has
been lowering of universal prices, the
worlds price lever falling. This is
shown conclusively by the index num-

various economic journals that have
tabulated prices and reduced them to
an index number through a series of
years. On the other hand, under like

ing for, than to rely upon party plat
forms.
The Independent voters of today
hold the key to the situation Dull
indeed is he who fails to recognize
a fact so palpable. The voters always
had good principles in their hearts,
they now have got them in their
heads. Their trouble in the past has
been not of the heart, but of the head.
The heart of man may remain right
while the head goes wrong, but when
the head gets right the heart follows.
The independent voter of today is
an educated voter. He knows that
the foe to be overcome in politics
stands for money, privileges and
plumber, caring nothing for party
names or traditions, and little for plat
forms, but is exceedingly particular
about candidates. The Independent
voter of today has at last learned
that in order to win victory at the
polls it is more important that the
candidate embody his principles rather
than any expression of a party plat
form.

THE AWAKENING

The awakening of the public mind
and conscience to the true conditions
that exist is marked by symptoms that
give wholesome assurance of the flu
ture. The rapidity Of shifting scenes
in our commercial, political and social
life for quarter of century, the
swift and daring advances made into
new and untried fields of enterprise,
and the stupenduous results that have
followed, for the time being, over
awed public intelligence which strug-
gled with commingled doubts, fears
and hopes apparently unable to free
itself from the hypnotic influence ex-
ercised over it by the master spirits
of the age.
a terrible awakening to find despotism
in industry confederated and en-
throned, holding the government of
cities, states and nations in it's grasp,
with its machinery perfected and run
ming at lightning speed in the work
of plundering the masses in the pres
ent, and closing to them all the av-
enues to future independence.
The great political parties were
throttled, subsidized and muzzled, so
that for many years only the feeble
protests of individuals could be heard
in all the land. Political leaders We'd

PROSPERITY

That the United State, and the
world at large are enjoying a period
of unprecedented prosperity is proven
beyond cavil or DOUBT by the recent
trade statistics furnished by the
bureau of corporations at Washington.
At such time, it may be opportune
to analize conditions, resolve them
into elements, and by noting the pres
ence or absence OF contributory ele-
ments at former periods arrived at
a deduction of great value.
First, we will consider man, here we
find an Interchangeable quantity. His
desires, his demands are constant.
and he is at one time as willing to
perform labor and make sacrifice to
obtain the things desired as at an
other. Hence, we pass man, to the
consideration Of other elements.
Second, the product1veness of the
earth through climatic conditions,
this condition is and has been for a
period of years favorable. But we
find that in the past wnen this con-
dition was equally favorable, hard
times and universal distress have
been the lot of men. Another impor-
tant factor is public health. Nothing
can disturb or destroy the happiness
and prosperity of the people in a
greater degree than disease and pesti-
lence. Fortunately the world is COM
paratively free from such scourge,
and has been for a series of years.
and the United States has been par
ticularly blessed in the general good
health of it's people for a long series
of years. Yet with this condition
favorable we have had hard times
with business at low ebb for a sue
cession of years. Still another factor
in the prosperity of country is
whether it be at peace Or at war.

Exploitation and graft knew no POI
litical lines. Therefore, it is not
strange that the agitation, caused by
the awakening of the public mind and
conscience to the truth, and is sweep

The Sawyers and Spooners of Wis.
consin with their old political ma
chine backed by the railroad, lumber

stand the onslaught of LaFollette who
drew his support from the common
people. In democratic Missouri the
democratic machine was powerless to
prevent Folk from putting guilty
democrats in the penitentiary. Ohio
wrenched itself from the grasp Of
Boss Cox and the republican machine,
and even in Philadelphia, the most
corruptly governed of all American
cities, the people broke the deadly

City the Tammany candidate for
mayor won by so meager majority
that that ancient and powerful organ
ization used its power to prevent a
recount of the votes, lest through the
discovery of frauds it might loose
the election, which is virtual con-
fession of defeat at the hands of the
people.
| The election returns of the past year
are full of inspiration for all patriotic
men regardless of party. Bossism
went down before the swelling tide of
righteousness indignation regardless
of location or the political parties in
volved In New York state the
leadership of Plat, Depew and Odell
is shattered, and Tammany is very
sick indeed.
| Never before, within the memory of
men now living has there been move
ment, in time of peace, characterized
by such distinguishing disregard for
venerable party leaders and party
tradition 1t is the first time in the
history of political parties that the
voters attained the lofty eminence
that defies party deceit. In WiscOn-
sin the popular democratic mayor of
Milwaukee at once became an object
of suspicion when the Spooner-Sawyer
political machine tried to secretly aid
/ him in his race for the governorship
against LaFollette, and democrats by
thousands turned from him and gave
their support to LaFollette. Next we
see in the republican strongholds OF
Pennsylvania and Ohio republican
voters with equal patriotism breaking
the shackles of tradition and putting
citizenship above partisanship.

HARLr NAY 60 TO PORTLAND
Rumors That PendIeton Attorney Will
Soon Take up Residence in Ore
gon Metropolis.

PENDLETON, Nov. 1.-Although
it has been rumored for some time
that Judge Thomas G. Haley con-
templated removal from this city upon
his retirement from the supreme
bench, it was not until yesterday that
this rumor was given decisive corrob-
grafton. From an intimate friend Of
Judge HALEY in this city it is learned
that as soon as his term Of Office ex-
pires he will remove his family to
Portland and there engage in the prac-
tice of his profession. From the
same source it is learned that Judge
HALEY has already completed arrange
ments for entering the law firm of
Chamberlain & Thomas.
It is known that Judge HALEY and
Governor Chamberlain are close
friends and the announcement that
the two men are to form a law part
nership comes as no surprise.
Judge HALEY will probably close UP
his business affairs in this city during
December and take up his residence
in the Oregon metropolis early in
January.

SCANDAL Is NOT YET IN

resenting the Pendleton Tribune, the
morning for the purpose of lnvestl-
omrning for the purpose of invest1-
eating the charges which were made
here against Agent o. c. Edwards, of
the Umatilla Indian reservation, and
for which the latter was fined by JUS
tice of the Peace Taggard.
It is the intention of Mr.. Dodd to
secure affidavits from several of the
officers who had business with Ed
wards and to whom he is alleged to
have made statements that were not
true.
He will secure an affidavit from
Justice Taggard in which the justice
will swear to the fact Of Edwards
pleading guilty to the charge of using
language vile and threatening and CAL
culated to provoke an assault from W..
c. Dodds. He will also try to secure
afffdavits to substantiate the charge
that Agent Edwards was drunk, while
over here for the purpose Of transact
ing government business.
After Edwards Scalp.
From a statement made to a Repub-
lie reporter by Mr.. Dodd it seems al
though some of the people of Umatilla
county are out after the scalp Of the
Indian agent. The Pendleton Tribune
is making the fight for these people
against Edwards. Already his case
mas been referred to the United States
district attorney with a request to
have a thorough investigation, and Mr..
Dodd says further that the Indian de-
partment will be notified as soon as
all charges against the agent are In
shape. A request will then be made
to nave a special agent sent out to
investigate the conduct of the agent,
and the manner in which he is attend
ing to the affairs of the reservation.
