Main Purpose Defeated.

From dispatches from st. Louis it
appears that the main purpose of the
Rock Island delegation to St. Louis
was defeated yesterday and little prac-
teal benefit to this city can come
of it. Realizing that the call for the
meeting left the upper river out of
consideration the delegation from this
city organized on the way south and
elected B. F. Knox chairman and May
or McCaskrin secretary, to further its
efforts in behalf of the upper river. As
might have been expected, however,
the Chicago delegates held to the orig
inal purpose of the meeting and any
benefit that can come of the conven-
ton will be shared only indirectly by
Rock Island.

nation has it's dangers. When Henry
Clay died the country recognized that
the Wing party had been eviscerated.
It's vitals were gone. Men said to one
another at Clay's funeral: thine was
that when the brains were out the
man would die" The Republican
party will be lucky if the prospects
of Mr. Roosevelt's early retirement
from public life do not excite similar
forebodings.
1t is certain that if we look at states
which used to be accounted strong,
holds Of one party or another, we en-
counter portents of party disintegra-
, ton such as were witnessed in 1854.
Missouri was wrenched from the Dem
ocratic column in 1904. On the other
side, Ohio chose last year a Demo-
cratic governor, and even Pennsylva-
MIA elected Democratic state treas
urer. In the last named state this
year Democrats and Republican re-
formers have united upon a ticket
which promises to be successful.
Even in New Jersey, the populous
counties of Hudson and Essex are
honeycombed with revolt against the
regular Republican organization In
the Empire commonwealth, nobody
knows who will get the Republican
nomination for the governorship, and
no wise man wants it. The only kind
of peace attainable between the fol
lowers of Higgins, Odell and Plat is
the kind preached by Joab to Abner
when he drove his knife under the
fifth rib. Besides, so long as Theodore
Roosevelt stands aloof from the con-
test, who knows how much substance
there is left to the Republican party?
There are close observers in the city
and upstate who allege that the
Hearst propaganda has eaten deep
into it's bowels. If we try, on the
other hand, to forecast the course of
the Democratic party in this state we
find ourselves equally at sea. The
old parties are smitten with wasting
malady. All can see the disease; but
where is the physician?
There is no doubt that from the wei
ter of discord and mutiny new po-
llitical order will ultimately be evolved
But shall we have long to wait for
it. as we waited when parties broke
up in 1854? Or will it come quickly
and decisively, as it might if Demo
Gratis should put forward a leader
possessed of Roosevelt's vitalizing
personality?

SENATOR FULTON.

Senator Fulton is very capable,
worthy man. He represents Oregon
we'll There is no need of making a
change. Senator Fulton has made
good" He is the right man in the
right place and he is gaining, 'deserv.
eddy, national reputation as states
man.
Oregon needs such men in that posi-
ton. 1t should keep Fulton there
term after term, for 80 years yet. if
he lives and has his health that long.
This is good policy. Fulton is all
right-he is capable senator. He
will continue to be. Keep him right
there, elect a good partner for him
to the senate, and Oregon will be all
right.

An Ants Sewing Circle.

f. Doflein, German naturalist, has
recently seen in Ceylon a species of ant,
the Oecophylla smaragdina, in the act
of sewing" two leaves together for
the purpose of forming a nest. This
observation confirms the report Of the
English naturalist, Ridley, made In
1890. Dof1ein saw a row of the insects
pulling the edges Of the leaves tog eth
err; then others trimmed and fitted the
edges, and finally a seam was made
by fastening the edges with a silky
thread, yielded by larvae of the same
species which the workers carried in
their mandibles. He made a drawing
illustrating the method OF working.
According to Ridley, the sewing ants
pass the thread-giving larvae like shut
ties through holes in the edges of the
leaves

Baron Komura Says Japan Will Keep
Treaty Pledges.
even if h


Victoria, B. c., Aug. Baron Ko-
mura, recently appointed Japanese am.
bassador to Great Britain, arrived TO-
day by the Canadian Pacific railroad
steamer Empress OF Japan on his way
to London, via Quebec, from where he
sails by the Empress of Ireland on
August 9.
Baron Komura said with regard to
Japanese action in Manchuria that the
Japanese government would undoubted-
ly carry out all the pledges made before
and since the war to maintain 'sthe
open door" in Manchuria. Regarding
the criticism of foreign merchants, he
said these were due to impatience.
The terms Of occupation demanded that
Japan adopt the measures now in vogue,
but as soon as the military occupation
was ended and this would be soon, ar
rangements would be male to carry out
the pledges regarding sn "open door"
policy. True, the bulk of the army
had been repatriated, but there was
still large force IN Manchuria. There
was also Russian troops in occupation.
While it was not known definitely what
Russia was doing regarding the with
drawal, it was known that troops were
steadily being withdrawn and it was
necessary that the Japanese military
administration continue to occupy the
country until the withdrawal was COM
plete.
"Has Dalny been made a free port
and are other nations than Japanese re-
stricted from trading via that port with
Manchuria?"
"That l cannot tell you" replied
Baron Komura. "This much can say,
though, the pledges made by Japan re.
garding Manchuria will be carried out
in every particular as soon as the term
of occupation by the military forces has
expired"

A CORPORATION WITH A SOUL

There would be no necessity, or
even a desire, ON the part of working
men to strike If all corporations we're
managed by men such as are in con-
troll of the Portland Railway, Light &
Power Co. The men who worked up
this agitation and brought about the
recent labor troubles were not ac-
quainted with local conditions, and,
planned their campaign along lines
found to work successfully elsewhere,
but here there was no general dis
content among the carmen; they were
at all times given every consideration
that an employee could reasonably
ask an employer, and above all, they
enjoyed the respect and confidence of
the managers of the company, which
fact in itself made an effective strike
impossible.
There is no room in Portland for
the professional labor agitator, for
there are no dissatisfied workmen, and
there will be none if all large employ
ers of labor seek to gain and retain
the friendship and confidence of their
employees
In the prompt and effective settle
ment of this trouble the public is
highly gratified, as tie-up of the va
rious lines and possibly the closing
down of the other enterprises operat-
ed by the company would have done
serious injury to the business of the
city, as well as brought much incon-
venience to the public generally.
The Portland Railway, Light &
Power Co. should adopt the motto
1T pays to treat people right" for it
has given the most conspicuous dem
onstration of it's virtue and value.
This was shown particularly during
the recent attempt or threatened
strike: most nf tho mon, though tney
had organized a union, refused to tie
up the car lines Why? Because they
were in the long run treated right my

We, in Portland, ought to be proud
of a man who, like Mr.. Goode, has ris-
en- to such position. No man in New
York, Boston, or any great city, has
risen more rapidly or with, or for bet
ter reason. As president of the Lewis
and Clark Exposition, Mr.. Goode not
only proved himself quite equal to the
task, but he laid aside other business
of great Importance and did the city
and state, freely and with the utmost
public spirit, a million dollars worth
