THE LEGACY OF LIBERALISM.

1t is not necessary for The Observer
to declare that the attempted assas-
sination of former President Theo-
dore Roosevelt at Milwaukee, last
night, was a dastardly deed or that
it's author was maniac Everyone
knows the above statements are true.
1t is but another evidence that we
are far too liberal in our treatment
of our incompetents. The assassina-
ton of President Mckinley aroused
the country to a sense of its danger
from the fanatical hordes who drift
to our shores; moral degenerates and
bloodthirsty ruffians from the slums
of Europe who are taught that mur-
der is the highest mark of honor and
to strike at the worlds greatest men
is to emblazon the name of the brute
who does it high on the scroll of
fame.
Following the assassination there at
once arose a demand for more strict
enforcement of immigration laws
which should prevent the wholesale
dumping in the United States of Eu-
ropean murderers and anarchists. The
movement was resultant in much
good; but the deplorable act of the
Milwaukee maniac impresses us that
we should also give more attention to
the apprehension Of the trigger
Drained cranks that infest every walk
of life. Murder at the hands of those
who have long been known to be
mentally unbalanced are of daily oc-
currence and 1t is the duty Of the law
to protect society from such fearful
menace. Doubtless the man who at
tempted the assassination of Theodore
Roosevelt owned friends who knew
of his mental condition, yet nothing
was done to protect life. After the
maniac kills in cold blood, we then
hasten his punishment. But it is too
late.s An honored life has been sacri-
feed that might have been spared had
we employed more radical measures
and been dominated less by maudlin
sentiment.
The affair at Milwaukee is a dis
grace to our country. 1t is deplorcd |
by everybody and the nation today |
breathes a thankful sigh in the
knowledge that 1t failed
But let MS watch our maniacs more
closely hereafter; let us drop our lib
eral treatment of them and see to it |
that they are placed where they can
not harm others.

ADJUSTMENTS AT THE FAIR.

The Arnold Attraction while do
ing a good business, like the polit-
ical speaking end of the fair was
classed as a little out of the line
that should be carried on at the
county fair The show feature
would have been much better I'm a
carnival session than at the county
fair, where the exhibits and educa-
tional features should be made the
strong points of the programme.
The above from the Independence
Monitor is reproduced because the
plan of permitting an amusement
company to usurp the entertainment
features of the fair has been crit
cised in some quarters. Yet the fact
that the shows did a good business"
as the Monitor states, would seem to
indicate that there was demand for
them. Whoever heard of "a county
fair, or a state fair, without these
features? And the fact that they

hibits and educational features" tt

"WONTEN'S RIGHTS"

There are 100000 women in Ore
gon. The majority of them do not
want to vote. A small proportion in
any given community is asking for
the ballot. Is that not true in your
town? What do the rest want?
Many Of them are actively opposed.
To put upon these women a RESPONSE
bility from which they have been
hitherto exempted and which they do
not want to assume, is not "Women's
Rights"
Many of them are Indifferent. The
Indifferent male voter is one of the
problems of the present electorate.
Would you add to il a large body of
voters avowedly Indifferent?

There are hundreds of men em-
ployed today in the lumber industry
of Polk county. They are drawing
good wages in the logging camps and
the saw mills Some of them are
Democrats-others have announced
their intention of voting for Roose-
welt, which is half vote for Wilson.
The Observer would respectfully ask
all such to consider fully the step
they intend to take. During the
previous Democratic administration
the wheels Of the saw mills were idle;
the industry was paralyzed and the
donkey engines in the woods were
still The thousands of men previ-
ously employed in the lumber indus
try were without work and were glad
to labor for even a dollar, or six bits
a day to keep body and soul together.
Democratic tariff tinkering did it.
Our Democratic friends tell us that
such a condition won't happen again.
But they don't know One thing is
certain-times are all right now
therefore, why experiment? You
have the work and the wages now,
why vote for a change when you
really want no change. What do
you think about it? Don't take our
word for it; you young men who will
cast your first vote this fall-just ask
the old man about the change" he
got when he voted for it before, in
1892. The country wanted a Change"
then and it got it good and plenty.
If there is one industry in the coun-
try that needs a protective tariff it is
the lumber industry. The Republi-
can administration has given lumber
this protection and your present re-
munerative wages are the result.
Don't you think it would be just as
well to leave things as they are?

Such Proof as This Should Convince
Any Dallas Citizen.

Any Dallas Citizen.
The public endorsement of a local
citizen is the best proof that can be
produced. None better none strong
er can be had. When a man comes
forward and testifes. to his fellow
citizens, addresses his friends and
neighbors, you may be sure he is
thoroughly convinced or he would
not do so. Telling ones experience
when it is for the public good is an
act of kindness that should be appre-
ciated. The following statement Civ.

for the crowds, aside from the exhib-
it's The people expect it, and they
would be disappointed if the shows
were not there. The carnival compa
ny supplies free attractions that can
only be had at considerable eXpeu
in other ways. There is no obliga-
tion to patronize the shows. 1t T.
only those who want such things and
enjoy them who go, and if the shows
were not on hand many people might
find the fair dull and uninteresting.
The management of a county fair ca
ters to all classes and conditions of
people and amusement must be fur
nished for all. The Observer does
not believe that a fair without any
thing of this kind would be a COM
plete success.

Jackson, Miss, April 1.--Yielding
to requests from several sources for
a statement as to his attitude on the

Of this state, has written the follow
ing:
81 shall support an experimental
parcels post bill, if it comes up in the
United States Senate. ] believe that
the people are entitled to relief from
the extortions of the express COM
panies. | believe that a properly safe
guarded parcels post will be con-
venience to the farmers of the coun'
try, to which they are eminently en-
titled. 1t will not, however, confer
upon them all the blessings which
they expect to flow from it, but it GER
tainly will not, in my judgment, in
fiict the injury upon the retail mer-
chants which they anticipate"
The attitude of Senator Percy is
practicvally the same as that of his

liams, who recently issued state
ment setting forth the reasons why
he favors a parcels post system.
