BORDERING ON { fNF.

The history Of the world at all
ages has drawn especial atten-
tion to a mothers love for her
offspring, both in manklnd and

animal kingdom. 1t has been
recognized, fostered and protect
ed even in our courts of equity.
And so it should be, for there is
no truer or better emotion known
to mankind than that called

An incident in the street car
strike in San Francisco a few
days ago is of more than passing
moment when seriously consider
ed. In giving an account of the
situation the following paragraph
appeared in the associated press
dispatches:
:
Lobos refuge camp armed themselves
with missiles of various sorts and bonn
barded passing car. They were doing
c. considerable execution when the police
interfered. Later in the day some of
these warlike women laid their babies
on the car tracks and were again chased
of by the police after several cars had
thus been blockaded.
This strikes the mind of an
average person so hard that they
are almost paralyzed. Here are
mothers jeopardizing the lives
of their infants. They have not
the least excuse for such an
action. In blind frenzy and re-
bellion against the conditions
imposed by law and order they
resort to murderous tactics and
take chances on the possibility
of the motorman not seeing the
helpless babes stretched ON the
tracks before an oncoming car,
in which event their babes would
he ground to atoms.
Suppose the motorman could
not control his car and the in
fants had been run over? Would
not the moshers be guilty Of
murder in that event? They

TRE4cHER

Appalling, indeed, are ne con-
ditions today in Boise, Idaho.
The trials of Meyer, Haywood
and Pettibone for complicity in
the murder of Gov. Steunenberg,
of Idaho, are rapidly assuning
so serious an aspect as to be of
national interest an1 impor-
tance. AS is known to nearly
all, it is beyond doubt a fact that
the chances for securing jury
of II men fearless enough to
bring in a verdict strictly in ac-
cordance with the evidence sub
mitted during the progress OF
the case are very slender. So
much for the threats of the fed
erationists. This seemed bad
enough, but recent disclosures
indicate condition still worse.
In recent dispatches it is stat
ed that some of those in the con-
fidence of the prosecution have
been proved threacherous and
faithless to the cause of those
they served. The state has been
dealt a blow in its attempt to
bring the guilty to account.
Treachery, conspiracy and cor
ruption seem to be everywhere
to work a miscarriage Of justice
in the cases in question. And
federated labor has hecone the
handmaid of all this dirty work.
Far better would it have been
for every honest man connected
with federated or union labor
had their representatives placed
no obstacles in the way of fair
and impartial trial of those de-
clared accessory to the murder of
Idaho's governor. Better still
would have Jared their cause had
the Chicago federation insisted
in the prosecution of those deem
ed guilty, that the odiun of con-
spiracy for a miscarriaoe of JUS
tice might not attach TO them.
Trusted officials of the ate have
proved treacherous. Of all
damnable things there are none
worse than threachery, 'nless it
be ingratitude.

MEET U. OF 0. TODAY.
Pullman Men at Eugsne-Wil
Be Close Meet. ssss )

Discussing the track meet th at
will be pulleo off in Eugene to-
day. Wednesdays Register says:
Pullman's sturdy athletes ar
rived in Eugene yesterday from
Corvallis and are in fine tettle for
the track contest with Hayward's
men on Friday afternoon. The
tneu are tile discouraged over
their defeat with Corvallis but
Hayward says that the Pullman
team is much stronger than the
score against Corvallis shows.
He anticipates close meet and
will take no chances on Friday
but will Use every available man.
He is allowed fifteen entries.
The Washington lads will
train on the Kipcaid field until
the tryout and will become en-
tirely familiar with the track.
This will make it all the more
possible for the contest to be
close. During the time that
they are here they can get thor
oughly at home on the Oregon
track and know its advantages
and disadvantages. hewitt, the
Pullman trainer, is an old hand
at the business and he will have
every detail of the track worked
out tor the advantage of his men.
FRIDAYS contest will be peculiar
in that the two teams will be
strong in events in which the op-
posing team is weak. Oregon
is strong in the sprints, jumps,
vaults, hurdles and weights.
Pullman also is equally strong
in weights and exceedingly
strong in the middle distances
and the distance runs. Pullman
also has good second and third
place men in every event. This
does not mean that a recent
of events will not be
closely contested. On the con-
trary where one team has aim ost
a certainty of winning an event
the other team has second place
men who will supply the compe-
tition. The meet will be won
by seconds and thirds. 1t will be
a test of skill on the part of
Trainer Hayward and Trainer
Hewitt to figure out the second
and third place men tor on these
will each trainer have to look for
his points.

Our Indictment.

Many of our readers have no
doubt read in the Portland dailies
articles to the effect that 3. F.
Irvine, editor of the Corvallis
Times, and the undersigned of
the Gazette, have been indicted
by the federal grand jury. So
far we have been given no Off
cial notice of the specific charge
and have no more information to
give our readers than is afforded
by the Portland papers.
From these papers it appears
we are charged with sending pa
pers containing lottery adver-
tisements through the mails. The
lottery notice must have appear
ed in the regular advertisement
OF some of our local merchants.
The publication was the result of
inadveftance and lack of know
ledge-we claim the innocence
of ignorance. At no time have
we had any knowledge that we
were violating the law. There
is no likelihood of the matter as
suming proportions of SERIOUSNESS
and we trust those who know us
will continue to maintain their
trust in our honesty and desire to
at all times observe the law and
live up to it.
