After a hearing that lasted all day.
A. Perard, the sheepman accused of
stealing 75 head of sheep from c. A.
Johnson, was bound over to the cir
cult court by Justice Parkes late Sat
urday afternoon.
1t was about $3.50 Saturday that the
case against Perard was passed up to
Judge Parkes. After the evidence
had all been given John McCourt, for
the prosecution, spoke very briefly,
He said the purpose OF preliminary
examination was to ascertain II there
was a probable cause for holding the
accused, and insisted that the evidence
had showed conclusively that there
was such in the Perard case.
In defense of his client, ]. r. Raley
insisted with equal earnestness that
there was absolutely no evidence upon
which to hold the defendant He de-
clared that nothing had been pro-
duced showing criminal intent on the
part of Perard, and accordingly asked
that his client be released.
Come back at 4:S0 and will giye
my decision" said Justice Parkes af-
ter the case had been concluded.
Held for Grand jury.
At the appointed time the parties
Interested In the case again assem-
bled in the court room, and Judge
Parkes ordered that the defendant be
held TO await the action of the cir
cult court. In the meantime he was
given his liberty on his own recog-
niZance,
According to District Attorney
Phelps it is the intention to ask for
grand Jury at the January session Of
circuit court. The jury will be called
mainly for the purpose of investigat-
ing the case against A. D. Rhonimus'
charged with the mdrder of Tom N.Y.
ers. 1t will also be given the Perard
case, and any others that may arise in
the meantime should the district at
torney so rule.

This is Sorrow Sunday for the
Elks. How like a paradox that
sounds. How strange that among a
bunch of such good fellows and con-
genial souls there should be sorrow"
Thus spoke Rev. Andreas Bard at
the Church of the Redeemer yester-
day in opening his eulogy of the dead
at the Memorial service held by PEN
dleton lodge No. 2SS, B. P. o. E.
But continuing he declared there was
nothing singular in the fact that Elks
should grieve for he held that only
those whose hearts are open to glad
ness can really be sad.
In honor of the brother dead an
eloquent and interesting address was
delivered by the Walla Walla rector.
1t was filled with things that touched
the hearts of the listening Elks and
others because they bore upon the
daily lives of those who heard. Re-
spect for the dead and appreciation
for the living he held up as the great
things taught by such occasions as
the one yesterday. That charity Is
the highest of virtues he insisted and
lauded the memorial motto Of the
Elks: "The faults of our brothers we
write upon the sand, their virtues
upon the tablets of love and memory"
Along the same line he quoted the
well known rhyme:
There is so much good in the worst Of
us.
There is so much bad in the best of
us,
That it i'll becomes any of as
To talk about the rest of US
Impressive Ceremonies.
Aside from the eulogy by Rev.
Bard the ritualistic services yester-
day were very beautiful. Following
prayer by Rev. I. b. Tallman, Chas.
j. Ferguson, exalted ruler of Pendle-
ton lodge. conducted the opening serv-
ice in a very able manner. He then
directed the secretary to call the roll
of the dead, which was done by H. G..
Thompson. The following is the me-
mortal list: Sam p. Sturgis William
T. Murphy, f. d. Boyd, II. c. Guern-
sey, F. w. Waite, K. Van Dram, Chas.
Zeigler. Frank H. Parr and II. II. Hal
lock.
Following the roll call Mrs. Anna
Selkirk Norton sang "At Last (by
Liddle), and at the conclusion Of the
eulogy, He Was Despised," from the
Messiah"
During the Memorial service the
Church of the Redeemer was filled to
the doors with members of the order,
their friends and relatives Of the men
in whose honor the service was held.

That another bank is to be started
at Hermiston aside from the institu-
ton which Mr.. Swayze proposes to
establish is now declared by those
who are on the inside of affairs at the
thriving little irrigation town. The
new banker is a Montana man, and
he is said to intend establishing a
bank in building which will be erect
ed on the west side of the track at
Hermiston.
Although IIermiston as a town is
young, it has already developed that
bane of all cities, local dissension. AT
Hermiston the line drawn between
the two factions is the o. r. & N.
track. On the west side of the rail-
road the Maxwell people hae their
buildings, including a hotel, store,
postoffice, etc. On the east side the
Skinner-Newport people are fast
building up business section of their
own, and the Swayze bank is intended
for that side of the track. The bank
that is to be established by the man
from Montana is being backed by the
people on the other side.
Saloon for Hermiston.
On Saturday a liquor license was
granted by the county court to the
Maxwell land and irrigation company
the application being made by j. f.
McNaught The proposition of a sa-
loon for Hermiston is one that has
been up for many months. For a
time ii was argued that no saloon
could be established there as a state
law prohibits such within four miles
of any government work. However
the applicants for the license asserted
that there is now no government work
within that distance of Hermiston,
and after fully considering the matter
the court granted the license.

Securing Mil Employees Put Up an In-
dependent Candidate for Free Box

dleton Tribune advertised that IL
would give a free box at the Frazer
theater on the occasion of Maud Fea-
ly's performance in this city to tn +,
young lady receiving the highest num-
Der Of votes as the most beautiful girl
In the city.
Believing this to be a fair and hon
est contest the employees of the scour-
ing mills named a candidate and de-
spite their votes for her. but for some
selfish reason the Tribune has with
held her name and refused to an
rounce the number of votes cast for
her.
We, the employees of the securing
mills, feeling the injustice of the Tri-
hune's action, hereby agree to give
absolutely free box in Frazer thea
ter tc the candidate named BY us, for
the Maud Fealy performance. Votes
cost absolutely nothing. nut must be
voted in the box at the securing mill
and will be published daily in the East
cregonan.
All friends of the securing mill en-
rloyes are cordially invited to vote al
the mill where the votes will be count
ed daily. This is done in order that
our candidate, who was barred fcom
the Tribune list for som, reason. may
secure a fair deal. Nc coupons arc
required. Voting is free and the
young lady will enjoy a box at the

SELLING BOTTLE MILK.
Judge Hailey's Alfalfarm Dairy Starts
New Industry I'm PendIeton.

Judge I. G. Haley has started the
bottled milk industry on his Alfal-
farm dairy on Wild Horse creek, and
Is now delivering daily in the city,
fresh bottle milk in bottles from any
size from a pint up.
The demand for the bottled milk is
very good because of the convenience
OF handling it. The sealed bottles
may be left, by the deliveryman with
out the necessity of securing bucket
or pan to receive the milk in, while
the empty bottles may be gathered up
the next trip.
There promises to be an excellent
demand for it and the entire force of
the dairy will perhaps be devoted to
this branch of the industry.

Depends Upon the People.

Representative government depends
upon the people. If they want It long
enough and hard enough they can get
it. If the people do not govern them
selves then special interests will gov
ern the people. There is and always
has been a constant fight between the
interests of the masses and the selfish
ness of the classes, the law and the law
less, the right and the wrong The in
terests of the masses, the law. the right,
must always be fought for. The selfish
ness of the classes, the lawless, the
false. the wrong, must be fought against.
1t is not enough to be merely against
wrong; the people must be aggressively
against it.
The real strength of the nation is in
the individual. and the nation is great
in proportion as it's government repre-
sents the happiness. the prosperity and
contentment of the average individual.
Here between the two great oceans,
on ground consecrated by the blood OF
patriots to the principles of liberty and
representative government, we have
founded an empire such as the conquer
ors of old never dreamed of; but the
greatness of a nation does not consist

in mere acreage nor in the strength of
battleshiDs alone, but in the, purity OF
its ideals and in the intensity Of its de
votion to those principles that make for
right, for justice and for humanity.
True to the principles of representative
government, we shall be the most pow
erful of all nations Of the earth. For
saktng these, with a government Of and
by special interests, national and private
prosperity can only be temporary, and
we must finally go as other nations have
gone during the flight Of time through
the ages. Without these ideals and prin-
ciples, the time VIII come when our
strongest military engines and our most
powerful naval ornaments will be as
impOtent as the armies and navies of
Russia against the victorious Japanese.
In vain do we build battleships, fortify
our coasts and man our guns, unless into
every rampant and turret there can be
brought the ideals and the principles
that constitute the foundation of repre-
sentative government, for these make

one party. Partisanship is a good thing
when consistent with patriotism, but
patriotism is a higher virtue than par
tisanship. A new day has dawned in
our political life. The moral idea in
politics has come to stay. The wave
of the patriotism of peace will go on
with ever increasing force, This does
not mean the destruction of political
parties, but the putting of political
parties on q higher plane. There has
been much talk since the recent eiec-
tons of doing away with the old polit-
zeal parties or the forming of a new
one.
The first would be impossible, and
the second is entirely unnecessary. The
two great political parties can furnish
every element of governmental reform,
when coupled with a large and healthy
measure of political independence. 1t
is unnecessary in furtherance of moral
principals to destroy old parties, but it
is necessary TO overthrow the corrupt
elements in all parties
Root of Public Evil.
The greatest enemy to representative
governments, the root of all evil in
public affairs, is IaWlessness. In a re-
public the government rests entirely
upon the law, which the people make
for themselves. The law represents the
sovereignty of the people and the rule
of law means the rule of the people, for
a majority of the people make the laws.
1t is more difficult, however, to get
good laws enforced than ii is to enact
them. The easy notification of laws by
executive officials is one of the great
est evils of our day. Too many Off
Gals feel themselves more bound by
what they think is public sentiment
than the law.
No official has the right to violate
the oath he takes to enforce the law
simply because some people do not
want the law enforced. If public senti-
ment is to be the arbitrator Of whether
laws are to be enforced or not, laws
lose all their solemnity and binding
force. But an active public conscience
all over the land today is now demand
ing that every official keep his oath
inviOlate. We need more respect for
existing laws rather than more laws.
The corporation magnate should be
compelled to respect the law that reg
ulates the conduct of the corporation
as he asks others to respect the law
that protects the property of the cor
pOratiOn. The anarchy and capital
breeding laWlessness should no more be
tolerated than the anarchy of labor
breeding riot and disorder There is
too little respect for the majesty of the
law in America, and laws to be effeC-
tive must be respected. The perpetuity
of government depends upon the man
ner in which the laws of that govern
ment are carried out The laws of a
state are the life of that state. and no
man loves his state that deliberately
disobeys its laws.
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1906-01-21
Honesty the Best Politics.

Political parties are beginning to
learn that honesty is, after all, the best
politics. The people will no longer re-
spond to the empty sound of mere par
ty names, but a, party must stand for
something and mean something Cor
rupt men use to hide behind the party
dress and whenever attacked would
cry out that the party was being as
sailed. The people have learned that
a CRATER is a CRATER still. whether he
calls himself a Democrat or a Repub-
lican. Grafters do not recognize ale
glance to any party. They work with
both sides They shout party fealty to
the multitude and then make common
traffic of party loyalty for their own
profit The private citizen often be-
comes a mere pawn in the game of the
grafters. The time has come when
good citizens put the welfare of the
state above the mere advantage of any
