ment Of the London Times.
When the Thunderer decided to de-
vote one or more OF its columns daily
10 an ecclesiastical department all Eng
and sat up and admired. The man
chosen TO conduct the column was a
rather elderly and occasionally coR
vivial younger son who for years had
contributed church news TO the paper
but had never dreamed that lie should
attain the extreme honor of actually
becoming one of the editors of the
Thunderer. that world shaking power.
The promotion went to his head, made
him dizzy. He saw himself power
in the land, one who perhaps would
make or unmake ecclesiastical digni-
taries.
ON the morning of the announcement
OF the new venture the new incumbent
came into town on his usual train from
Surbiton. his head swimming with de-

met an old friend whom he forthwith

GET OUT AND VOTE.

Under the direct primary law now
iE force in oregon the individual
voter is a power in the land. The Sc
lection of public servants is now en-
tirely in the hands of the people, ana
if the people do not exercise their
prerogative and get out and vote at
the primaries, the legislature will
perhaps be tempted to revise or repeal
the primary law seeing that the peo-
pie do not use it.
The full vote of the state should
be brought out at the primary cleo
ton. Pride in their state, loyalty to
their friends who may be candidates
and interest in perpetuating good
government should stimulate voters to
vote in the primaries.
We have long complained in Ore
gon that a few bosses dominated cleo
tions, named candidates and made the
policies of the state. Now that this
power is lodged in the hands of the
whole people, through the primary
law. let the people show their appre-
citation of their citizenship, by exer-
cising their power intelligently and
zealously.
The East Oregonian urges every
voter to take part in the primaries,
If principles are worth anything. if
we believe in and hold sacred the
perpetuation of good government. not
only in the nation, but in the state,
county, city and precinct, We should
exercise the citizens privilege every
time opportunity is offered.
Let us never shlrk the task of vot-
ing, the highest prerogative of Amer
lean citizenship.

A SERSiONETTE.

AS the full grown plant or tree Is
in embryo in the seed, so all higher
forms are in embryo in the lower
forms of expression. Were it not so
there would be limitations. Man is
in the chicken, if not so, he could moi
appreciate the chicken as a food to
build his thought, brain or body. He
is in the rock and in vegetation-in
everything.
Everything is man, and man and
God are one, II and the Father are
one" l am that I am, meaning that
am the thing which I am.
Every objectified expression is
God expressing. God is expression in
every conceivable form-in the seen
and in the unseen; in thought and in
lsubstance-is identical with law,
force or compass.
The most trivial, the most objec-
tionable, the most abominable, the
most refined, the most esthetic and
sublime are expressions of the great
Divinity or Intelligence. but man ex-
presses in accordance with his
thought or leading tendency and
builds brain and body befitting and
in accord, being a free will agent to
dominate himself, which is his en-
cironment, his success being within
himself in degree, as he has evolved
his powers to dominate, for success
is domination and complete domina-
ton is Love. A READER.

JUDGE Il. G. HALEY.

In the death of Thomas G.. HALEY
Oregon loses one of her foremost citi-
1ens and braniest men. In middle age
he had accomplished what hundreds
of thousands of men, with better op-
portunities, do not accomplish in a
life time.
Belonging to the minority party in
Oregon he enjoyed political honors
second to no other young man in the
state. And he enjoyed these honors
solely through honest merit and de-
served reward for manly and fearless
dealing with all.
Coming up from the plain people
he was ever in touch with them and
among the most sincere mourners at
his bier will be obscure, poor men
whom Tom HALEY had befriended.
There is no tribute more sacred than
this and no better index to the char
acter and life of a departed neigh
Dor.
AS private citizen, mayor, district
attorney. supreme judge, he was the
same sincere, fearless man at all times
under all circumstances. He knew
everybody and everybody knew Tom"
Haley. and no man in oregon in dy-
ing could leave behind wider circle
of friends than he.
The East Oregonian is proud to
know that it has said many kind
words for Judge HALEY during his
life time. He deserved them and ap-
preciated them and now that he is
dead. the world cannot say that all the
kind words were withheld until too
late to let him know that he was ap-
preciated.
Had Judge HALEY been a member
of the majority party in oregon, and
had kept his integrity and pursued a
straightforward course in private life
and politics, as he did, it is impossible
tc estimate the additional honors
which might have been bestowed up
on him by the people,
That his personal characteristics
overcame political prejudices and
overthrew strong political organiza-
tons in several hotly contested cam
paigns in Umatllla county, is suffi-
eient testimony to his sterling worth.
His life and achievement should stim-
ulate other young men to exercise
like courage, honesty and fearless
ness.

An Irish Instance.

IT would seem that the people of
Ireland have not yet discovered that
municipal ownership is the failure
that the press bureaus of private mo-
nopoly in America persistently assert
for home consumption. An item in
an Irish paper of recent date (not
cabled by the Associated Press or the
Loudest Least) brings the informa-
ton that "the result Of the plebscite
on the acquisition of the Cavehill and
Whitewell Tramways by the Belfast
corporation has resulted in 24,75S
reclaring in favor of and 1855
against the urchase'-practicall
two to one.
From which il appears that the
people of Belfast have a right denied
the free and Independent" citizen of
many American cities-that of voting
upon the disposition Of public utill.
ties. And the result in Belfast is a
fair example Of what would happen
here and elsewhere were these mat
ters submitted TO popular vote.-San

BOOSTING ELLIS.

The News advocates the renomina-
tion of Congressman Ellis because his
record in congress is that of faithful
and honest service for the people and
the interest of Oregon; because his
membership of congress from 1896 to
1900 gives him an acquaintance and
prestige which enhance his Influence
and usefulness beyond the possibility
of any new man to attain; because he
is far ADLER, broader and greater
man in craftsmanship than he was
when first sent to congress; because
since his return to congress he has
served only part of one term and to
displace him now would weaken the

ting" into the race where he had no
claims whatever.

The people of Umatilla county have
just cause to be proud of Charles A.
Barrett, who has taken fearless
stand for statement No, /, and the
popular election of United states sem
ators, in the face of the organized
opposition of a large element of the
republican party not only in this
county. but throughout the state. Mr..
Barrett has the courage and indepen-
dence to say that he favors the peo-
pies absolute control in senatorial
elections, and Umatilla county will
show her appreciation of his fearless
stand, by re-electing him to the leg
stature by handsome plurality.

congress before the Willamette valley

BOURNE'S PROPHECY.

Senator Bourne ventures the proph-
ecy that, unless Roosevelt runs for the
presidency. William Jennings Bryan
will be elected. And this prophecy
should be needed by republicans
everywhere. This Taft boom is do
ing more to make a democratic pres
ident than any other agency.
Either Roosevelt or La Toilette
must be nominated to save the day
for the republican party this year
The people have had taste OF the
splendid progress which has come OF
the Roosevelt policies and they will
not be satisfied with the conservative
soup Of the Taft, Cannon or FAIR
banks brand.
Bryan is stronger today than ever
before in his political career. He had
rursued a steady, forward course, de-
manding many Of the very things
which Roosevelt has put into execu-
ticn and winning friends by his earn
egtness, sincerity and fearlessness.
So in order to keep a republican
president in power, a man equal TO
Bryan in every way, must be nomi-
rated. Taft does not fill the bill,
Cannon falls far short Of the mark.
La Toilette, Roosevelt or Hughes must
oe chosen to carry the standard in
1905 or 1t will be lost.

A SONG AGAINST LOVE.

There is thing in the world that has
been since the world began:
The hatred of man for woman, the
hatred of woman for man.
When shall this thing be ended
When love ends, hatred ends,
For love is a chain between foes, and
love is a sword between friends.
Shall there never be love without
hatred? Not since the world began,
Until man teach honor to woman,
and woman teach pity to man.
o that a man might live his life for
little time
Without this rage in his heart, and
without this foe at his side!
He could eat and sleep and be merry
and forget, he could live well
enough.
Were it not for this thing that re-
members and hates, and that hurts
his love.
But peace has not been in the world
since love and the world began,
For man remembers the woman, and
the woman remembers the man.

THE COMMON FOE.

There have been less fire eating"
speeches in the present session Of
congress than ever before since the
civil war. Even Senator Tillman has
been tame and John Sharp Williams
has held his temper. The words
north" and south" have been
spoken with a different meaning,
have had less venom back Of them
than ever before.
Statesmen are coming to recognize
that there are greater matters for
the consideration Of congress than po-
Htical prejudices. They are coming to
recognize that through this olden sec
tional prejudice, the common foe,
predatory wealth, has been strength
ening its grip and fastening its tenta-
cles deeper into the flesh of the peo-
pie.
SO statesmen who really represent
