No Gambling in Jefferson.
Times. Democrat.

ltuto' DculUCl0ts
The protest of the Good Govern
ment League of the Seventeenth
ward against the gambling carried
on so openly and in defiance of
law in Jefferson parish, and which
Gov. Blanchard on his part called
to the attention of the officials of
that parish, asking for the enforce
ment of the law, has apparently
borne good fruit, for the worst of
these gambling bells were closed
Friday out of Difference probably
to public sentiment, Gov. Blan-
chard and the law. The closure
was made most unwillingly, for
the bells were running Thursday
night; but the local authorities
finally got to work Friday, and
when the would-be players from
New Orleans arrived there they
were surprised and shocked with
the news that there was to be no
gambling that night.
This is great victory, and
shows how much public opinion
can accomplish, even with officials,
who have been unable to see vio-
lations of the law that have pre-
vailed for years. We do not fat
ter ourselves that the closure is
permanent. 1t is safe to predict
that as soon as the excitement
over this disclosure has blown
over, as soon as the Governors at.
tention is directed in another di.
rection, the gambling bells and
honky tonks will start up again.
But it is none the less a victory
that these lawless concerns should
have beed closed for single day
in Difference to popular protests
and it shows that conditions are
improving. A few years ago the
protest of the Csrrollton League
would have been laughed to scorn
if it had not been denounced as ar
attempt to interfere with the rights
of Jefferson to run things to sui
itself, regardless of public opinion
in New Orleans or of the law o
Louisiana. When that law is en-
forced throughout Jefferson for al
entire week or even for an entir'
day we have made a long step for
ward toward that good governmeu
which all decent Louisiauiaus de
msnd and which we hope for
thanks to the present primary.

HEARSTS SHARP TONGUE.

In an address before the Indepen-
dence league Of New York, last week,
William Randolph Hearst made the
following sharp criticism of present
political parties and practices:
The motto of the democratic party
today is anything to get into office"
and the motto of the republican party
Is anything to stay in office"
The corrupt expenditure of the peo-
pies money in political subsidies is
robbery. And the campaign contribu-
tions of the beneficiary corporations
are bribery.
In 1904 Mr.. Perkins contributed
$4,000 of the insurance money of
widows and orphans to Mr.. Cortelyou,
campaign collector Of the republican
party In 1905 Mr.. Cortelyou, as post
master general, paid back to Perkins
the party debt with public funds
He awarded Perkins a contract for
his steamship line which pays him
100000 a year more than other
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1907-04-27
THE POWER OF RECALL.

The new charter of the city of PEN
dleton should contain a provision by
which the voters of any ward may re-
call from office a member of the city
council who may prove to be dishon-
est, corrupt or unfaithful to his ante
election pledges or platform.
Under the old charter the council
has the power to remove corrupt
member, but when was such ever
done? No matter how apparent his
unfitness, a council cannot be de-
pended upon to initiate a movement
for the removal of an Objectionable
member.
The people should have that power
and now is the time to place that pro-
vision in the charter. This will in
sure good conduct and will place the
government of the city in the hands
OF the people, direct.
A corrupt member could not then
hold on to his job with impunity, al
though by all the rules of logic and
reasoning he may have been convicted
of crookedness by public sentiment
1t is humiliating in the extreme, to
the decent and honest citizens of a
city to know that their representative,
the man who is supposed to speak for
them on public questions, is crooked,
corrupt CRATER. 1t is unreasonable
that such a man should continue in
office after his crookedness has been
shown beyond doubt. The people
should have the power to Immediately
remove such an official and elect one
in his stead who would represent them
| honestly and faithfully.
The East Oregonian also believes
that the mayor and councilmen of
Pendleton should be paid a nominal
salary. They give much of their val
liable time to the city's business.
True, they are willing to do it, but If
they were paid a moderate salary for
the service, they would feel more like
giving time and energy to the conduct
Of the peoples business.
It is a wrong idea Of economy to
think that these public servants
should be satisfied with the honor of
the office. Pendleton can afford to
pay her public officials something
No matter how small, a salary to the
mayor and councilmen would show the
right spirit, anyway.
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1907-04-27

steamship lines are paid for a similar
service. This contract extends over
10 years, and will net Mr.. Perkins
$4,000, 600 above the legitimate profit.
Mr.. Perkins has returned under the
force of exposure the $4,000 which
he appropriated from the widows and
orphans, But he is still ahead $4,-
$4,000 on the transaction. Mr.. Cor
telyou has paid out $5,OOO,00O of the
peoples money to get $4,000 for a
campaign fund, and has as yet shown
no disposition to return dollar.
So it seems that Mr.. Roosevelt and
Mr., Hartman are not the only prac-
teal men in this practical admins
tration. Mr.. Cortelyou and Mr.. Per-
kins appear to be about as practical
as men can be and remain at large.
Not public control nor public owner
ship will be successful until you elect
faithful public officials, and you will
not elect faithful and competent men
to office until you choose the manag-
ers of your government as you would
the managers of your private business,
with more consideration for their
worth than for their party affiliation,
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1907-04-27
REVENUE WITHOUT TAXES.

1t is possible for Pendleton, under
her new charter to raise large sums
in revenue without taxing visible
property to death. If the people will
take an interest in the charter revis-
ion and see that provision is made for
the taxation of public service corpora
tons, such as telephones, telegraph,
electric light, gas, express, fire insur-
ance, street cars and other corpora
tons on their franchises in the city,
the taxation of the visible property
of the small business man and home
owner will be perceptibly reduced and
no injustice will have been done the
corporations.
None of the corporations doing bus
iness in oregon cities pay what they
should in taxes. Because they have
little visible property to assess they
escape taxation, while they enjoy
many benefits and large profits be-
cause of their franchises.
Every corporation doing business in
Pendleton should pay part of their
incomes to the city treasury. They
are enjoying privileges from the peo-
pie and are paying an inadequate re-
turn. Let the new charter reach this
form of property as well as the visible
property of the home owner and the
business man.

Soon the erection of the boys dor
mitory for Pendleton academy will be-
gin. This building will offer to boys
from the interior of oregon first-class
educational advantages in this city
and will be the means Of diverting
several thousand dollars annually to
this city. At the present time this
money is spent in Portland, Walla
Walla and Tacoma because Pendleton
the educational center of eastern Ore
gon, has not been able to take care of
the young men. Now the condition is
changed and Pendleton can advertise
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1907-04-27

her educational advantages to the
world. 1t will be but a few years
until the educational facilities and ac-
commodations of the city will neces-
sarlly have to be doubled to meet the
growing demands upon the city. PEN
dleton is in the center of rich en-
pire which will continue to look more
and more to this city for all its needs
as the country develops. Pendleton
must make arrangements to respond
to those demands.
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1907-04-27

The East Oregonian has not exag-
gerated the meaning of the extension
OF the Walla Wana lnterurban cleo
trio line into Umatila county. Fifteen
trains are now running each day be-
tween Walla Walla and Freewater
auG every train is loaded. The lines
penetrate for 10 miles into the richest
section of Umatilla county, carrying
trade to Walla Walla. and if this is
not cause for Pendleton to sit up
and take notice, then nothing is to be
considered as a cause for concern.
l. is not too late, of course, for Pen
dleton to make a move to offset this
condition. But 1t is time that some
thing was being done. The people
of this city should begin today to Sc
cure a right of way from here to
Holdman to connect with the Open
River Transportation line now sur
veyed from Simmons Landing on the
Columbia river to Holdman.

where the street car is and what

the long. high display windows, ex-
