MHARG'S NEW ROLE.

Alas. it is all over now with the
conservation policy and with the re-
clamation service Ormsby McHarg
has attacked Director Newells work
and likewise "Pinchotism." McHarg
said the usual things in criticism of
the forest service and of the Roose-
velt-Pinchot conservation policy.
But it matters little what ormsby
McHarg said. The wonder is at his
insufferable gall in attempting to say
anything upon such a subject and to
voice an opinion of real men like
Pinchot and Newell. McHarg is Il
political scavenger; a partisan rousta-
bout for Frank Hitchcock and is usu-
ally put at jobs that decent men will
not undertake His appearance IN
Oregon last winter is well remem-
bered. He came here with the avow-
ed purpose of trying to induce men,
bers of the legislature to break the
solemn pledges they had made their
constituents. Thanks to the good
character of the legislators, McHarg
did not succeed in his corrupt pur-
pose. Nor was his visit to this state
well received. He was regarded as
an interloping political crook and was
virtually shown the state line.
Now this fellow has attempted to
,crlticise Director Newell and the forest
service policy of Clifford Pinchot. 1t
Is intolerable. McHarg has as much
right to talk of Pinchot and Newell
and conservation as has hobo to
criticise the men who toll or as has
a prostitute to discuss the faults Of
virtuous womanhood.
1t is also a matter of surprise that
McHarg has government job in
Washington. When he was here last
winter it was officially denied that he
was in the government service or that
he represented the president on his
trip to oregon. What is he doing in
the government service now? Is he
retained under the Taft administra-
ton to offer suggestions as to the
course of the administration towards
the care Of the resources of the west
II SO then things are in a fine state
indeed. If Pinchot and Newell are 10
be censured by such fellows as Nc
Harg there is something wrong for
sure. The game is not worth while

THE SHIVELY VERDICT.

Shively was not impeached by the
Washington legislature, but If express
sions by the Washington press repre-
sent the views Of the people Of that
state then he is guilty man in the
minds Of the majority Of his fellow
citizens.
"Shively's guilt was proved to the
satisfaction of majority Of the state
senators, but he escaped conviction
under the constitutional provision
which requires "a concurrence Of two
thirds Of the senators elected says
the Spokesman-Review
HE was saved from conviction, too,
by the shrewd technical defense Of his
attorney, who raised the point that
when the alleged acts of malfeasance
were committed Schively was only a
deputy and should not now, while
holding the office Of insurance COM
missioner, be punished for offenses
perpetrated before he was elected to a
state office.

Law Regarding Newspapers

The following is a synopsis of the
United States supreme court decision
regarding delinquent subscribers:
l. Subscribers who do not give
express notice to the contrary are
considered to renew their subscrip-
tion.
>. If subscribers order discontin-
uance of their periodicals, the pub
Usher may continue to send the paper
until all arrears are paid.
g. If subscribers neglect or refuse
to take their periodicals from the
postoffice they are responsible until
after they have settled their bill and
ordered their paper discontinued.
4. If subscribers move to other
places without informing the publish
er and they continue they are re-
sponsible.
8. The courts have decided that
refusing to take periodicals from the
postoffice or moving and leaving them
uncalled for is prima facie evidence
of intentional fraud.
6. If subscribers pay in advance
they are bound to give notice at the
end Of the time If they do not want
to continue taking it, otherwise to
send it, until an express notice with
all arrears is sent to the publisher.

ABOUT RESTING.

Some people do not know how TO
rest while there are others who rest
so much that it becomes tiresome.
Many people work hard at being
idle, says an exchange. The rich who
have found no occupation more useful
than to spend their incomes often
make their empty lives necessarily
busy with costly and elaborate diver
sions once drawn into the tiresome
round of pleasue there is great diff
Guilty in escaping from it,
a person surfeited with the pastimes
of smart society is usually spoiled for
normal ways Of finding rest. His ap-
petite has been dulled to the simple
pleasures that are most recreatIve.
And the man who has kept in the
whirl of business for too long
stretch is just as likely to have killed
his tast for quiet relaxation.
OF course there are some men who
are constitutionally fitted for unre-
hitting activity Theodore Roosevelt is
one of these human dynamoes. Will
liam Nelson Cromwell is such a man,
except that he hardly ever turns his
attention from. business and law, while
Mr.. Roosevelt gets rest by changing
the character OF his activity.
Nine out of every 10 people would
be better off for dropping everything
now and then. 1t is good to know
how TO relax mind and body, to get
away from the routine of city life, to
take a look at nature and to invite
her subtle ministration.

is IT WORTH wnI1E-

Is it worth while that we jostle a
brother
Bearing his load on the rough road
of life?
Is it worth while that we jeer at each
other
In blackness of heart?-that we
war to the knife?
God pity us all in our pitiful strife.
God pity us all as we jostle each other;
God pardon us all for the triumphs
we feel
When a fellow goes down; poor,
heart-broken brother,
Pierced to the heart; words are
keener than steel,
And mightier. far, for woe and
veal.
Were it not well in this brief little
journey
On over the isthmus, down into the
tide,
We give him a fish instead of SER
pent
Ere folding the hands to be and
abide
For ever and aye, in dust at his
side?
Look at the roses, saluting each
other;
Look at the herds all at peace on
the plain
Man, and man. only, makes war on his
brother,
And dotes in his heart on his peril
and pain
Shamed by the brutes that go down
on the plain.

technical defense as 1t is the clear
intent of the constitution that the
public should have an adequate meth
cd of discharging unfit officials. 1t
goes without saying that no private
employer whose interests had been
abused by an employe as the state has
been treated by Schively would con-
done the offense and continue the un-
fit person in a position af great trust
and responsibility.
But Schively owes his narrow es-
cape from conviction to something
more than a technicality. He was
saved by a political system" In
fluential ring politicians stood stuo-
bornly in his defense from two mo-
tives-one of loyalty to a friend and
member, the other of sheer self-pro-
lection. Schively is not the only state

ice, and some of his alarmed associ-
ates stood resolutely by him all
the regular session, opposing
an investigation of his office from
fear that once the searchlight began
to operate, it would be turned on them
as well as upon Schively.
THE little gang of senators who
have blocked the righteous efforts of
c vernon Hay will find it difficult to
square themselves with their consti-
tuents. They and Schively have won
o technical victory, but the moral
triumph is with Governor Hay and
he better elements of the state sem

MEMORY'S MELODIES.

A slumber song at eventide,
With the cradle slowly swinging;
Fast falls the night, with Me abide
Her soul was softly singing.
The song is hushed the music's died,
That Voice sings now in Glory;
But, oh, I'd give the world beside
AS once again a little child
To hear the Old, Old story!
Yet, in my ears, on down the years,
Sweet echoes keep a-ringing,
Through doubts dumb fear and wis
dom's tears,
Whenever the twilight hour appears
l hear Loves Song still singing!
Soft lullabies from Land-o'- dream.
Loves cradle-song sung sweet and
low
Those melodies forever seem
Still singing wherever l go;
Once dear to ChildrooG's hour and
scene,
Lifes Heart of Age still keeps them
so!

Professor Burt g. Wilder, the
eminent anat mist who had been
studying brains for fifty years,
considered il necessary at the
national conference on the status
OF the negro io disproee the old
theory, born ignorance and
prejudice, THAI She Negroes brain
is structuraily inferior 20 the
white man S. lnnr6er to demon.
strate This point Professor " lid
er showed 20 his audience the
brains OF many white men and Of
black men preserved in alcohol,
and called attention to the fact,
generally accepted by scientists,
that is is impossible to distiB-
guish between the two. Exhibit
ing the brain of q mathematician
and philosopher and that of an
illiterate mulatto, Professor
Wilder said that structuraHy the
the one was as well developed as
the other, and that the mulatto's
skull was much thinner than the
philosophers.
An atomists are familiar with
these facts, SAID the professor,
but some popular novelists are
not, or else they deliberately per
vert them, and they are largely
responsible for the persistence
