SAVE THE BERRY BUSHES.

Hundreds of people are now going
into the Blue mountains to pick huck-
leberries. The crop this season is ex-
cellent. In fact, it is the first crop
that has escaped the frost for num-
ber of years and the berries are now
ripening in large quantities on the
mountains.
So many people despoil the berry
patches by breaking the bushes that
q word of appeal to save the bushes
does not seem out of place. 1t ruins
next years crop to break off the
bearing bushes and is an act of in
excusable vandalism. Save the bushes
for next year. This is not the last
year. If everybody broke bushes and
sat in the shade and picked the ber'
ries off, how long would it be until
the pleasant enjoyment of picking
huckleberries would be destroyed?
Save the bushes. Don't vandalizf
the berry patches.

WHO is TO BLAME?

1t Is said the klamath Indians have
suffered loss from exchange of lands
on their reservation, within which
part of a military road land grant
lies. for other lands. Very likely.
These thieving land grants have been
the curse of oregon in many ways.
No roads ever were built; and had
they been built they would have been
of little use. Perhaps there ought to
be no censure for men like c. e. S.
Wood of Portland, who have accepted
the post or place of attorney for these
swindling land grants. Their services
were for hire.
But now the Klamath Indians are
said to have been swindled by ex-
change of lands claimed by one of
these grants; and the klamath Herald
snvs it is proposed to pay them SS71,-
900 in cash for the loss they have
suffered.
1t is not enough that the lands were
awarded originally to grabbers and
thieves; the government now is. to
pay for his own land. The Indians are
not to be blamed. The lands were OF
no value to them. for they made nc
use of them and the money they may
now get for the lands will be curse
to them. But the original land-gran'
thieves and their successors. what is tc

HAYWOoD's ACQUITTAL.

The result expected by perhaps q
majority of people who have follow
ed the trial of william d. Haywood,
for the murder of Ex-Governor Frank
Steunenberg, of Idaho, has happened.
1t has been conceded throughout
the latter part of the trial that the
state absolutely failed to corroborate
Orchards testimony with even a film
sy bit of evidence upon which an hon.
est jury could shape verdict.
And no honest jury could accept the
word or oath of Orchard in the most
remote degree. The william has been
without a shadow of doubt, coache a.,
drilled, directed and sworn by the
Pinkerton detective, MCFARLAND, who
is as detestable a criminal as Orchard,
himself.
The acquittal of Haywood by a jury
for which Ada county was combcd
over with a fine-tooth comb, is a
death blow to the Pinkertons who had
laid a trap to destroy the miners or
ganization through the conviction
OF the leaders. The appeal was made
to a jury satisfactory to both state
and defense. Three weeks were con-
sumed in selecting it and neither side
can cry unfair"
While thinking people everywhere
are glad that Haywood was not con-
victed on Orchards testimony. yet
Haywood is not entirely acquitted in
the public mind. There is evidence
that he knew of Orchards criminal
career and that he did not make an
effort to stop it. There is evidence
that he paid Orchard money and
knew that Orchard was a cutthroat,
and yet did not complain to the au-
thorities.
These things are for Haywood to
settle with himself. The jury has
performed its part honestly. Now
will Haywood do as much? Will he
help stop lawlessness?
The fact remains, however, that
Frank Steunenberg was murdered In
cold blood. Somebody is guilty OF
that crime. Justice demands an ac'
counting.
Will the miserable cutthroat, Or
chard, now be tried, convicted ant
hanged just as speedily as possible
to stop the expense?

Recently a visitor to the late Sena-
tor Pettus of Alabama, commented
on the senator's extremely active old
age and observed that his habits must
have been rigidly regular and abstem-
ious. The old senator replied: Il
chew tobacco all the time, drink
whiskey whenever 1 feel like 1t and
as much of 1t as wish, and go to bed
and get up whenever I dam please"
As he was about IS at the time, the
rules seem to have been very effec-
tive in his case.

EFFECTIVE ANTI-PAsS LAW.

Railroads in Texas are ready to re-
spect strictly the anti-pass law. which
is to become operative today. 1t is
the most stringent kind of law. Any
violation of 1t is punishable by a fine
of $4,000 to be levied against the cor
poration. Further, the person issu-
ing the pass or express or. telegraph
frank is liable to a fine Of $500. or
as high as $4,000. and may also be
sent to the penitentiary for six months
to two years. Also any person not
entitled to a pass who applies for one
is subject to a fine of from $500 to
$4,000.

RELIC OF DE SOTO.

Old Spanish, Fort, located about 10
miles by wagon road northwest of
Aurora, Mo-, Is a place of great his
toric value. From all indications it
was erected by the SpanlardI consid-
erably over 200 years ago. Those who
have studied the course Of De Soto
and who have examined critically the
fort and surrounding country, say that
unquestionably the old fort was built
by the Spanish explorer. Indian relics

found there, indicating that a battle

HIGH PRICES.

The northwest is not the only place
where there is going up a cry about
high prices. Not about high prices
of living alone, but the high prices of
practically everything. Henry Clews
in his last financial letter thus dis
cusses the high prices of commodities
and the resultant effect upon busi-
ness:
There is one division of business in
which readjustment is still incom-
plete; in fact, has scarcely begun.
Commodity prices are still very high;
too high, indeed, to permit of any ex-
tensive plans extending into the fu-
ture.
Copper is still selling in the neigh
borhood of 22c. The average cost of
production is placed at 10c, some pro-
ducers, of course, turning out copper
at very much lower price than this.
Consequently the margin of profit
is large and there is ample room for
recession. other metals have recent
~ shown a declining tendency.
There is no doubt that moderate
recession in the cost of staple pro-
ducts would be highly beneficial and
aid in restoring the general situation
to a sounder and more normal basis.
Values are now so high as to ma
terially threaten profits of manufac-
turers and distributors, and to check
all operations extending into the fu-
ture.

A BARBARIAN POLICY.

When the barbarian hordes con-
quered Rome and entered the Eternal
City in brutal triumph, they sought
not to save the splendid city for future
use. Riot and destruction were their
only aims. They tore out the great
reservoirs which supplied the cities
with water and which irrigated the
fertile plains; they razed the splendid
temples; ravaged the market places;
destroyed the works Of art and block
ed the rivers with wreckage and de-
bris.
All they wanted was what plunder
they could carry away. They had no
thought Of tomorrow; they gave no
heed to Roman art and skill as tools
for barbarian hands in the future.
The barbarian policy was to plunder
today; let tomorrow take care Of
itself.
When the commercial policy Of the
great timber syndicates of the north
west are sifted to the bottom, they
very much resemble the policy Of the
old barbarians. Today is their day;
they want forests today. let tomorrow
