.JeTOn1e'S Failure.
The eclipse of District Attorney Jeromes repu-
taton prosecutor and defender of the rights of
the people be traced to the fact that he had too
many friends in high places friends who cared
for the almighty dollar than they did for their repu-
tation, for outraged public opinion. 1t is mma-
teral whether not the present investigation into
Mr.. Jeromes official life is complete vindication,
his future usefulness as public official is greatly
impaired. The press of New York seem to think
that Mr.. jerome has been too dilatory in prescott
ing the misguided insurance officials This charge
is giving the district attorney considerable worry,
for he dare not enter fiat denial-the evidence to
the contrary is too convincing
There are thousands of people in New York
who expected wonderful things of Mr. Jerome

WezO Y,OrE Riots.

The riot that recently occurred in New York
extremely unfortunate affair for both parties
concerned, the police and the unemployed. Unfor-
tunate, because it has engendered hitter feeling of
antsgonism that will exist for years. a hatred that
will lead to future quarrels of more less violence
The unemployed who we're present this occasion
and perhaps roughly used by the police, will
nurse their injured feelings to such degree that
they will commit almost any lawless act They are
convinced that their constitutional rights ruth
lessly abrogated and that if this had not been the
case there would not have been any act of violence
by those upon whom the hand of poverty lays the
heaviest. This demonstration causes one to bark
back to Russia, to France Immediately preceding
the Reign of Terror; but it is not likely that the
New York affair will be the precursor of such mo-
mentous events as those which have stained the his
tory of France.

I'ezJU7y rampant.
SEVERAL of the local judges in New York City
have confessed their belief that perjury is being
ried on to appalling extent, notwithstanding the
fact that every witness is to tell nothing but
the truth It is we'll known that the person who is
prompted by motives of revenge will in the majority
of cases. not hesitate to elaborate the facts in
der to satisfy his malice. Also, there those who
stretch their imagination for the purpose of gaining
newspaper notorety. Still, it is difficult to under
stand why person will deliberately perjure himself
to convict another when there DO biased motive
volved. Surely then it must be for the sordid fees
which he earns as a witness. But this is so con-
temptibe charge as to be unbelievable altho the
facts may warrant the statement
In the majority of cases, and especially in large
city like New York where the docket of court cases
reaches into the hundreds it is impossible to make
a thorough investigation into each case. The evi-
dence Of witnesses must be accepted as conclusive
proof, unless such evidence is too conflicting. It
would be undign6ed for the court to threaten each
witness by citing the law pertaining to perjury; and
furthermore, each witness is supposed to know the
nature of an oath. Perjury is difficult charge to
prove, and in most cases conviction depends upon
self-confession. One may be morally certain that a
man is perjuring himself but to prove it is another
story Altho every state in the Union has laws per-
tanning to this crme there appears to be little abate
ment of the evil of which judges complain bitterly

An Oregon Model.

The new state of Oklahoma is
modelled after oregon in many ways
and even surpasses oregon in a
number OF features. Her banking
law, for instance. in which every
state bank contributes to fund
which is kept in reserve to guarantee
deposits. has brought her millions Of
dollars in deposits from adjoining
states.
On Thursday, May Z, the people
OF Oklahoma will vote upon three
proposed amendments 20 the federal
constitution. to-wit: Popular cleo
tion OF United Stetes senator's, auth
orization OF an income tax, an en-
p,overs' liability law.
There is every reason to believe
that the people OF the new state
will adopt every one OF the meas
ures, requesting congress to enact
such legislation.
Oklahoma has the spirit Of pro-
gress and has taken advanced
groand on almost every subject. Her
state constitution is a model charteI
OF liberty for the people OF a com
monwealth and she has rebukej
many older states by courageous de-
nance OF trusts, corruption ans
skullduggery.---East oregonian.
