St. Johns review. (Saint Johns, Or.) 1904-current, 1912-11-15

by a large majority the yo-
ters of Oregon have decided to
continue capital punishment.
by their verdict five or seven
men will be swung into eternity
in this state before the year is
brought To a close. Oregon can
never lay claim 10 being wholly
progressive SO long as il cOunte-
nances and uphOlds this barhar-
ic act. 1t is cold blooded, pre-
meditated murder, and nothing
else. Because a majority of the
voters favor il does not make il
any the less murder III all who
voted in favor of continuing il
were compelled to witness the
hangings, il would be abolished
in short order, Men say it is not
murder, yet If a man would some
how get into a Jail where a muir
derer is confined and kill him,
we would then call il murder.
But when a sheriff or warden
does il, il is not called murder.
The result is the same in both
instances the murderer is kill
ed, but one had so-called author
ity and the other had not, to do
the killing, The old Scriptural
injunction. Have mercy il vel
would obtain mercy" is entirely !
lost sight of. Some day Oregon |
will take its place with other pro-
gressive states in abolishing this
act. The vote of the women will
no doubt be of material help in
this respect. Women are ever
more merciful than men.

The election of Woodrow VIII
son 90 the presidency seems to
give general satisfaction. There
are a few here and there with
calamity tendencies who predict
low wages and hard times. hat
they are mighty few There b.
not the slightest reason for such
a prediction. Il is true that
hard times did come under a
Democratic administration In
1893. bat IL was under high
protective tariff. The Wilson
tariff bin did not go into effect
until n year later, when times
commenced 10 pick up. The
Roosevelt panic Of 1907 seems TO
have been overlooked. II was
short, but fierce while IL lasted.
In the immediate future, at
least. there is no cause for alarm.
it is true that Wilson and a Dem
ocratic Congress and House will
make reductions IN the tariff.
but il will be pruncd with care.
Free trade or anything resem-
bling il will not be instituted.
II would take years 90 accom-
plish that, and then il might not
be feasible. Wilson's will not
be a free trade administration.
This has been the first campaign
for many years in which coercion
was not used by the big interests.
They are ready for pruning. and
they realize any objection 10 the
process would not be- healthy for
them. Thy have been plucking
and preying upon the public with
impunity for so many years that
the worm is beginning to turn.
and will brook no further pluck
ing in such unlimited quantities.
The Socialist and Bull Moose
movements have been Of inesti-
mable value To the country at
large. They have gotten the
people TO thinking, and when the
people think there is something
doing. The big interests are
more or less scared. They are
willing TO take their medicine.
in small doses at least. The
country has gotten in such shape
that Independent industries can
not exist. They are crushed to
death by the steam roller
methods of the big trusts. This
situation is what Wilson will set
about TO cure. He and his CO.
workers will make il such that
small industries may thrive as
well as big ones. Monopoly will
be halted and dissipated. III
this will bring hard times and
low wages. we better fight il out
now. To continue as i'm the past |
would be intolerable. The Re |
publican party has failed TO pro-
vide any relief. The Democrat |
ic party has now been given a |
chance. II il cannot do il, n new !
party will be born that will. The |

be done away with. and the |
sooner the better. The interests |
are beginning TO realize this.
and we feel sure will offer no
demur when Wilson gets his
pruning knife out. Times will
get better and the working |
people will get a more commen-
surate share of their earnings,
either in higher wages or a low
er cost of living. Calamity |
bowling should be stayed and |
pessimism be laid on the shelf.
There is plenty of time TO cry
hard times after they have loom
ed up ON the horizon. If the
administration proves a failure, |
the Republicans are as much TO
blame as the Democrats, for they
Wilson. Therefore, in
stead of yelling panic, let us look
ut affairs from an optimistic

BUCKINGHAM PALACE BALL
King Figures in Royal Quadrille'
Int in No Other Dances.

London. July Ga state ball at BUCK
ingham Palace Is one Of the most lhp"s-
ing ceremonies Of the London season.
The King and Queen are giving tw"
this month. the first of which was held
last night.
When the King and Queen. accom-
panied by other members of the royal
family entered the ballroom the sight
was glorious one. There was a gilt
tering display Of jewels. and the white
walls of the great chamber showed OF
to perfection the splendid toilets of the
ladies and the gold and silver brocades
which are now popular. Delicate shades
Of yellow. from the deepest gold to the
tenderest tnts Of maize, seemed 10 pre-
dominate. but blues. shell pinks and
mauves were much in evidence.
The guests numbered 800. The King
wore the uniform of the Royal Horse
Guards. the riband of the Garter and Il
number of decorations
The Queens gown was of cream and
gold brocaded silk. She. too, wore the
riband Of the Garter. Her jewels were
an emerald and diamond tiara and
neck ornaments Of splendid diamonds.
The Queen was frequently among the
dancers. but the King only took part IN
the royal quadrilc, which is little more
than a parade.

10y cable TO The Tribune ]

Mexico City, July 5.--Off1cial advices
70 the government to-day confirm in
every detail the complete triumph Of the
federals against Orozco in Chihuahua
and indicate the virtual collapse of all
serious armed opposition to the Madero
administration.
How thoroughly the administration be-
lieyes the revolt to have izzled out is
shown by the removal to-day Of the CEN
sorship which has been maintained for
the last six months on all press dis
patches and commercial cable messages.
The public's keen qualification at the
discontinue of the rebel cause is mdl-
Gated by the enthusiasm maniiesting
itself i'm the street, cafes and other pub
lie places \ big crowd collected in
front of the national Palace at noon and
cheered Madero, demanding speech
from him. but the President merely ap-
peared on the balcony. smiled and bowed
his Acknowledgements.
Il never had any doubt that the gov
eminent would maintain itself, backed
by the patriotism and good sense Of the
people" said President Madero later 10
the Tribune correspondent.
Serious doubts are expressed here as
to Orozco's ability to rally his forces
sufficiently to carry on even guerilla
warfare of any consequence. The eX-
recitation is that he and his principal
subordinates will cross 10 the United
States.
The government has begun steps with
view 10 having an embargo placed on
the funds deposited in the names Of
Orozco and other rebels in banks at Fl
Paso and San Antonio. Evidence can be
furnished in plenty that the money was
Communicated from public and private
sources in Chihuahua and that it is
virtually stolen property.
II is expected that a statement will be
issued by Madsro for the Sunday or
Monday newspapers.
