Representative Burnett of AIaba-
ma, the only man who has ever sue
ceeded in breaking down the ancient
custom of calendar Wednesday I'm
the house, is the shortest man in that
body. Once during the fight to oust
iorHier speaker Cannon, Mr.. Burnett
arose and shouted, "Mr. Speaker.'
Uncle Joe looked at the man for a
second and then said:
1t is customary for gentlemen to,
rise when. addressing the chair"
Il am standing at my full height -
roared Burnett.
But the house laughed so loud that
another representative was recogniz-
ed before the gentleman from Ala
bama' could compose himself

FROM THE PEOPLE
FROM SENATOR BARRETT.
Editor East Oregonian:

Editor East Oregonian:
In your issue Of 26th, March, your
editorial with reference to loss of
funds for the Umatilla- Morrow district
fair seems wholly uncalled for and is
no doubt prompted by your everlast-
ing desire to knock the legislature,
which no doubt gives the editor a
standing with the would-be dictator of
all that is holy and great in Oregon.
In your editorial l find these words,
"If our fair has been knocked in the
head and without the knowledge of
the Umatilla delegation 1t will be sad
reflection on the discerning power of
our legislators. We had five of them
there, all republicans and all lined up
with the machine. 1t was a beautiful
delegation from the standpoint of old
line politics. But in protecting the in
terests of Umatilla county they seem
to have been drowsy, to say the least"
Now Mr.. Editor, the only machine
the writer saw during the session was
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1913-03-31

plished, whom l trust look at matters
from a broader standpoint than does
the editor of the East Oregonian, who
it seems wishes to tickle the ma
chine" which had several holes
punched in its wind bag during it's
mixup with the last legislature.
Respectfully,
G. A. BARRETT.

the steel trust. AS a broker he re-
ceived enormous fees for such service
He was given $6O,OOO,OOO for plotting
the organization of the steel trust.
That he was a big and commanding
figure in the financial world we all
know. What good he did and what
harm he did is not yet fully disclosed
for we are still too close to the peri
Cd of his activity to form an impartial
estimate.
But Morgan's great work was for
private gain. not for the public good,
the people. They have robbed them.
They have not promoted efficiency
They have stifled it. The typical trus:
rules through market control, not
otherwise. Such monopolies are inde-
fensible and intolerable and they
should not have been formed along
the lines followed.
There Is a dramatic element in the
death of Morgan Just as the country
has entered upon its new political era
The object now Is to restore the re-
public to the people and to do away
with control by such men as Morgan
The action of the administration thus
far indicates clearly that hencefOrtf
the government of the United States
will be thing apart from Wall street
In large measure it is true that as
Morgan died his empire was passing
and he will have no successor on his
throne.
