10 giving to men in old age deferred
payments on wages earned during
their days of activity. The United
States has always given half pay TO
retired army and naval Officers. II is
not charity. The retired officer has
earned his retirement pay through a
life Of service Why should not the
same principle apply in civil life?
President Tafrs recommendation
that civil service employees be given
retirement pay after certain age is
in line with this idea The civil SER
vice is now "clogged at the top"
through the fact there are many old
men in the service. They do not want
to quit because their income would
stop and they would have no way TO
live. 1t would be harsh action for
the government to turn them out in
their old age after they have grown
gray in the service. The retirement
pay plan offers solution. The adop-
ton of that plan would make it pos
sible for the government to retire its
old employees at an earlier age than
at present and that would improve the
service. The fact he would still draw
partial pay would tighten the blow to
the aged employe.
What is true of the government ser
vice is true in private employment
There should be some plan devised
call it insurance. retirement pay or
what you will-under which a worker
upon reaching a certain age may re-
tire and still have an income on
which he may keep body and soul to-
gether. II necessary give him slight
| ly less pay during his vigorous days
and make up for the reduction by
giving him something in his declining
days when he needs it sorely.
Such a scheme as this would be
beneficial under just government and
IL would be a good thing under gov
eminent imperfectly administered. II
does not pertain to the question how
much pay an employe shall get but
has reference to when the pay shall
be given.

IsABELLA'S DESCENDANTS.

The discovery is attributed to Pres
ident David Starr Jordan of Stanford
University that almost any American
OF distinction can trace his descent
to common ancestor, one Isabella
de Vermandois, Duchess of Warren,
who lived in the twelfth century.
So far as that is concerned, none
of us has any difficulty in proving by
unimpeachable mathematics and ire
futable logic that he is warmed by
the transmitted blood of nobility,
royalty and genius. A child Of to-
day has two parents, four grandpar-
ents and so on. Counting for con-
venience three generations to the hun
dred years, his theoretical ancestors
In Isabella's century are numbered
by millions; few centuries further
back by billions. The actual number
is far smaller. since lines of descent
criss-cross from common ancestors;

but 1t is fair logical inference that
among so many millions and centur-
les every one may count on possessing
a reasonable number of royal or dis
tinguished forebears.
But what does that prove? How
much influence on the life of an Am
erican of today could be claimed for
one seven-millionth part of Isabella
blood; or for any probably number
of multiples of that share? Here is
the crucial test of the hereditary fall

a descent from a reasonable proper

The Cold lished for Umatilla
Springs Route county the chief point
to be considered in
arranging that system will be how to
reach the Columbia river most advan-
tageously. He declares that Cold
Springs Landing is the place to go to
reach the river and sets forth figures
purporting to show that a permanent
highway leading to that point would
give the most economical service to
the county as a whole. While the
East Oregonian is not at this time es-
pousing the Cold Springs plan or any
other particular route to the river
what Mr. Friedly says sounds logical
and is worthy OF consideration.
II we are to have a permanent
highway system devised 20 give con-
nection with the river the plan should
be worked out on basis of serving
the people of the whole county, not
with a view to building up any par
ticular ambitious community.

LIKE M'KINLEY,
SULzER CLAIMS
CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE.

debts, the Governor will testify, and Of
fered to help him on conditions that
were impossible of acceptance. The
candidate was continually receiving in
timations of what would be expected
of him by Murphy in return for the
nomination already given and the
financial aid prorfered.
As proof that there was no attempt
to conceal the fact that he was accept
ing contributions from friends for per
sonal use, he will call attention to the
fact that checks were accepted and used
for this purpose He will say that in
only two instances were requests made
for cash.
On one occasion Richard Croker. jr,
called at his office and offered a con-
tTibution of 5000. Sulzer was going
away on a campaign trip that night and
needed cash. He asked Croker to make
the check to the order of cash, so IL
would be easy 10 get the money. After
Croker left the office, however. cash
contributions came in and the Croker
check was not needed and was not
cashed until his return. Like explana-
ton will be made OF Charles Dersch's s
testimony that Sulzer said to him: IF
you get any more checks please have
them cashed.'
Sulzer will testify that his first break
with Murphy came in Washington at
the Inauguration OF President Wilson.
The Governor, Senator O'Gorman, Muir
ply. Norman E. Mack John II. McCooey.
William H. Fitzpatrick. and Representa-
tive Fitzgerald were holding a confer
ence on the question of distributing Fed
eral patronage. SulEer insisted that the
people had selected him to be the party
leader in the Empire State. and that he
should designate the recipients Of Fed
eral favor. Murphy vetoed this sug-
gestion, and the fight began.
Between the two groups of SulZer ad-
visers there is a bitter clash over the
question of the story to be told when
the defendant takes the witness stand.
D. Cady Herrick, Harvey D. Hinman,
Austin G. Fox. and others who have
been representing him at the trial de-
clare that much of the story Sulzer
wants to tell has no bearing on the
issue and that il will be ruled out.
The lawyers on the SulEer Kitchen
cabinet" assert that all this evidence has
a direct bearing on the charge that Muir
ply has concOcted gigantic conspiracy
against Sulzer, using his knowledge of
the finanial condition Of the executive
as a basis.
The clash between the Kitchen
cabinet" and the trial lawyers has be-
come so marked that SulZer, who is
siding with the former, may take his
case into his own hands. AS an evidence
of the serious possibility of such breach
1t was learned yesterday that Chester
Platt, Sulzer's secretary. had made a re-
QUESTION on Clerk McCabe for fifty sub
poenaes. These are for witnesses the
Kitchen cabinet" lawyers propose to have
called. DIR. Cady Herrick and the trial
counsel know nothing about them.
Many of these fifty witnesses are men
who have written to Sulzer since his i'm
peachment telling him they know of the
existence of the conspiracy.
