The post-office department. takes
the position that freedom of the press
does not mean freedom of the mails.
But what is freedom of the mails? 1t
is a new term. Who shall say what
constitutes freedom of the mails? 1t
looks like judicial question; but the
postmaster-general, as an executive
officer, feels no hesitancy in deciding
it. In our anxiety to squelch pestif-
erous anarchists we must not forget
that our constitutional right to free
speech is closely allied to freedom of
the mails and in submitting to the
curtailment of one we may be laying
the groundwork for suppressing the
most valued adjuncts of liberty-free
speech and free press.

Published in this paper.
A Senseless SANDER.

Mrs. Myron Smith, an Aberdeen
delegate to the Sunday school con-
yention at Seattle last week, succeed
ed in getting herself into the news
napers by yoicing a gratuitous SLAM
der against this city, that leads 10
a belief that there Is missionary
work here at home for the chamber
of commerce.
81 regret to say I am from Aber-
deem, that poor, wicked, watersoaked
city in the Grays Harbor country,
and l ask the delegates to pray for
the citizens of that country" said
Mrs. Smith, and, continuing, the
city needs regenerating from the
crown of it's head to the sole of it's
feet; that language failed her when
she attempted to depict the many
sins that take refuge beneath its soil
ed wings"
Mrs. Smith may have been perfect
ly sincere, but plainly showed her
self lacking in civic pride, knowledge
of affairs and sense. The absurdity
of going to Seattle to ask prayers for
Aberdeen would be humorous were
not the subject too serious for jest.
All that are in any way familiar with
conditions at Seattle and Aberdeen
know that there is less vice, less
crime here than in the Puget Sound
metropolis, according to the pOpula-
ton of each, and such ISLANDERS as
this is apt to have an effect not
dreamed of by the lady speaker by
deterring the very class of people
from coming here whose presence
might assist in elevating the moral
tone of the city.
But, as a matter of fact, Aberdeen
is not the wicked city Mrs. Smith
would seem to think it. 1t is doubt
full if a seaport city of like size can
be found anywhere in which the ra-
ito of crime and vice to population
is as small as right here in Aberdeen.
OF course, it is not a Sunday school
town. 1t is today in state of transit
ton from a lumber camp to city,
and is now engaged in laudable at
tempt to minimize the evil of vice
with a degree of success that is en-
couraging. Hysterical allegations
like those of Mrs. Smith do incalcul-
able harm to Aberdeen and lack the
slightest saving grace of aiding in
checking the wickedness complained

FORAKER THREATENS.

Senator Foraker, of Ohio, has been
talking vigorously of late. In speech
before an assembly of negro Metho-
dist bishops, he used language imply
ing that he stood ready to bolt the
republican party in case Taft or Roose-
welt were nominated for the presi-
dency. Speaking of Taft delegates
from the south, he said: '"They do
not belong to my party, and l will
not belong to theirs" He also spoke
of the possibility of "new parties"
On the 14th inst. Senator Foraker
made a speech in the Senate on the
Brownsville affair, in the course of
which he severely criticised President
Roosevelt and defended the negro SOL
diers, whom the president drummed
out of the army in disgrace without
trial. 1t was great speech, and its
effect on the negro vote in the states
the north and middle west may be to
defeat the republican national ticket.
These recent utterances of Foraker
show that the breach between him
self and the Roosevelt faction is liza
BILE to be permanent, and that he may
be expected to lead movement at
the polls against any man whom the
Roosevelt faction may force upon the
republican party. In such case,
Foraker would have among his fol-
lowers, not only most of the negroes,

The basis for the indictments, how
ever, is the discrimination alleged in
favor of the fruit trust" as against
smaller and independent shippers and
dealers. The Fruit Dispatch company
is subsidiary organization of the
United Fruit company. and it is de-
clared that through the manipulation
of passes issued to its employees and
p.trons the trust" has been able to
control the fruit trade along the lines
of the roads indicted, to the exclusion
and disadvantage of rvals in the fruit
business.

Quebec, July 24.-The prince OF
Wales was the central figure yester-
day in the magnificent spectacle re-
producing Quebec's historic past and
ushering in the Booth anniversary OF
the founding of the city by Champlain.
Aside from the spectacular features
of the event, it was the occasion for
a notable exchange of addresses be-
tween Vice President Fairbanks and
the prince of Wales. in which each
spoke of the existing relations be
tween the United States and Great
Britain and the prince delivered a
message of good will to the Ameri
can government.
Last night the city and harbOr were
ablaze with lights. The warships
were outlined and many other build
ings were similarly outlined with
myriad of lights.
From the citadel the prince was
looking across the St. Lawrence at
gigantic display of fireworks on the
heights of Lewis, showing in fiery
outlines the portraits of King Ed
ward. the Falls of Montmorency and
the battle of Wolfe and Montcalm.
Address of MIR. Fairbanks.

Opinion of Roosevelt in
Famous Big Fine
Proceeding.
WILL TRY TO AVERT II
Directs tho Attorney General
to Take Steps for a Re-
trial of the Case.
THE PRESIDENTS STATEMENT.

The president has directed the
attorney general to Immediately
take steps for the retriaI of the
Standard Oil case. The reversal
of the decision of the lower court
does not in any shape or way
touch the merits of the case ex-
cepting so far as the size of the
fine is concerned. There is abso-
lutely no question as to the guilt
of the defendant or the exception
ally grave character of the of.
fense. The president would re-
gard it as a gross miscarriage Of
justice if, through technicaIities of
any kind, the defendant escaped
the punishment which would have
unquestionably been meted out to
any weaker defendant who had
been guilty of any such offense.
The president will do everything
in his power to avert or prevent
such miscarriage of justice. With
this purpose in view the president
has directed the attorney general
to bring into consultation Frank
3. Kellogg in the matter and to
do everything possible to bring
the offenders to justice.

been done in that conference up to the
time of his arrival and good part OF
the hour spent in executive session

tive.
Comment Has Its Effect.
President Roosevelt explained to the
members of the conference that they
should not place too much credence in
the criticisms that had been passed
upon the navy by people on the out
side. but he said that much adverse
comment undoubtedly had had an ef
feet on the public mind.
The American navy, in its methods
and design of construction, as well as
In its gunnery and personnel, must al
ways be kept in the front rank, the
president said, and it was to the com

for the desired results. 1t has beer
said that one effect of the conference
would be to abolish the general board

the sittings of this council are of vary
ing opinion as to the possibility or de
1sirabilty of any such course.
