HAPPENINGS OF TWO CONTINENTS Resume of the Less Important but Not Less Interesting Events of the Past Week. Great Britain may institute radical reforms in her army to please Japan. Vladivostok rebels have driven out the Cossacks and enforced an armed truce. The annual report of the Philippine commission shows the island to be in good condition. General Chaffee has retired as chief of staff of the army. He is succeeded by John C. Bates. Many bodies are being recovered from the wreck of the Valencia which are not being identified. Fire destroyed an entire block in the city of Panama. The loss will reach $500,000, with very little insurance. Cossacks in Siberia after an armed conflict with rebels threw over 1,300 into Lake Baikal through holes in the ice. Fire broke out in the transport Meade at San Francisco. Three lives were lost. The property damage will not be great. The First United States infantry has sailed from New York for the Philippines. The troops will go by way of the Suez canal. It has just been given out that for the past four years the Equitable Life Insurance society has insured free the lives of its 900 employees for $1,000 each. Frederick has been proclaimed king of Denmark. A suit has been started in Nebraska to break up a combine of fire insurance men. King Frederick, of Denmark, will work for an alliance with Norway and Sweden. A high official in Tiffis, Russia, has been blown to pieces by a revolutionary bomb. The net earnings of the United States Steel corporation in 1905 total nearly $120,000,000. Shonts says he canceled the Markel contract for hotels on the canal zone because there was too great a graft. In an address to the New York Medical association Grover Cleveland appeared to the doctors to cast off mystery and talk in plain English. The National Livestock association and the American Stockgrowers' association have been consolidated. The new organization will be known as the National Livestock association. Gifford Pinchott, chief of the Forestry bureau, after a conference with leading cattle and horse growers of Colorado, has devised a plan which he hopes will end range wars in that state. The Postal Progress league, at its annual meeting in Boston, declared in favor of consolidation of third and fourth class mail matter at the third class rate, 1 cent for two ounces. This would reduce general merchandise rates 50 per cent. The health of Governor Pattison, of Ohio, is failing. Reinhold Sadlecr, ex-governor of Nevada, is dead. The Poston & Maine railroad has increased the wages of its employees 7 per cent. John D. Rockefeller is in hiding to avoid giving testimony at the Missouri hearing. The house committee on mines and mining favors giving each state a government geologist. General Wheeler was buried with full military honors in the Arlington national cemetery. Jerome has commenced an investigation of the business of the Mutual Reserve Life Insurance company. Governor Magoon, who has just been arrived in Washington from the canal defends the management of affairs. The Standard Oil company is preparing to leave Illinois. A suit to oust the company is about to be commenced. The National Livestock association and the American Cattlegrowers' association have perfected plans for the consolidation of the two organizatoins. Representative Sulzer, of New York, has a bill which provides a salary of $100,000 per year for the president and upon the retirement from office shall receive a salary of $25,000 per year for the remainder of his life. Dowie will turn over all his property to uphold Zion City. New Age MINERS WILL STRIKE Every Mine in Country To Be Tied Up Till Better Pay is Secured. Indianapolis, Ind., Feb 2.—The rejection of the counter proposition offered by the coal operators of the central competitive district by an almost unanimous vote of the National convention of the United Mineworkers, and the adoption of a resolution offered by Secretary Ryan, of Illinois, placing the miners on record as a unit in refusing to sign an agreement for any district until an agreement was signed for all districts under the jurisdiction of the United Mineworkers, has created a situation which, in the opinion of the officials of the miners' organization, will result in the disruption of the joint agreement and probably one of the greatest strikes of organized labor the country has ever known. Immediately after the rejection of the operators' proposition the convention set about to provide means for accumulating a strike fund of $6,000,000 in addition to a like amount now on deposit in the international, district and sub-district treasuries of the miners' organizations. To provide an emergency Secretary Wilson moved that a per capita tax of $1 a week be voted and that all districts take care of the dependent miners within their jurisdiction tor at least six weeks. He said that after that time he believed the international organization would be in a position to take care of the miners. After the motion had been amended to substitute ten weeks for six as the time during which the districts should care for their dependents, the matter was referred to the international executive board with power to act. RIOTS AT CHURCHES. Catholics Resist Entrance by Officers of French Republic. Paris, Feb. 2. — Everywhere in France the actual putting into operation of the clause of church and state separation bill which provides for the making of inventories of the property of the churches has aroused a storm of protest. In several provincial parishes Catholics have gathered in the churches and made such strong resistance that the government commissioners were unable to enter the edifices. In Paris today violent scenes took place in several churches, notably that of St. Clothilde. An inventory of the property of the church of St. Roche has not yet been made, owing to the opposition of the congregation, but the defenders of the church of St. Clothilde succumbed before the assault of an armed force which acted on the avowed intention of the government to use every means at its disposal to compel obedience to the enactment. In the chamber of deputies this afternoon Premier Rouvier replied to an interpellation on the subject by a Socialist deputy. The government, however, secured a vote of confidence by 384 against 166, after the premier had assured the chamber that the government was desirous of using tact and moderation in carrying out the law, but that it was fully determined to perform its duty, no matter what the cost. A dispatch from Dijon says fresh disturbances broke cut today in front of the church of St. Michael. The square was closed only after the free use of fire hose and the efforts of mounted gendarmes. Many arrests were made. TURN LIGHT ON HARRIMAN Democrats Propose an Inquiry Into Southern Pacific Combination. Washington, Feb. 2.—The Post will say tomorrow: The minority members of the house committee on Pacific railroads got together and agreed upon a plan of action through which they hope to throw the searchlight upon an alleged combine of the Southern Pacific and its tributaries, which they assert is on all fours with the Pennsylvania, Baltimore & Ohio, and Southern in the East. A resolution will be introduced in the house requiring the president to transmit to congress all information that may be in the possession of the Interstate Commerce commission or any other division of any department of the government bearing upon the alleged fact that the Southern Pacific Railway company is the holding company of the Union Pacific, the O. R. & N. Co. and the Oregon Short Line. Gale Breaks Up King David. Victoria, Feb. 2. — The steamer Queen City, which reached Clayoquot today, reported that the British ship King David, which was wrecked on Bajo reef December 13, and abandoned by her crew while standing high and dry at low water on the reef, broke up during the gale on Monday, January 23, when the steamer Valencia was wrecked. Captain Davidson and crew, excepting the chief officer and eight men, who were lost when going to Cape Beale, to seek assistance were saved by the Queen City. Let People Elect Them. Columbus, O., Feb. 2.—The house today adopted the senate joint resolution on urging congress to submit a constitutional amendment providing for the election of United States senators by direct vote of the people. IN THE NATIONAL HALLS OF CONGRESS Thursday, February 1 Washington, Feb. 1.—The discussion of the railroad rate bill was taken up and prosecuted with vigor throughout the day. So many speakers have come to the front on this measure that the house agreed to meet at 11 o'clock hereafter until the debate is ended. The feature of the debate was the lengthy speech of Sibley, of Pennsylvania, who arraigned the legislation with arguments of varied character, all of which tended to give his reasons for being unalterably opposed to the bill. The resolution of Burton, of Ohio, looking to the preservation of Niagara Falls, was agreed to without discussion. The resolution calls for information from the International commission on that subject. Washington, Feb. 1.—The senate today passed 30 or 40 miscellaneous bills and gave several hours to the consideration of the shipping bill. Among the bills passed was one providing for a delegate in congress from Alaska and a number providing for light houses, revenue cutters and fish culture stations. The greater part of the time devoted to the shipping bill was consumed by Penrose in a speech in support of the measure. Other bills passed provide for a fog signal station at Edly's Hook light station; Washington; construction of one more fish cultural station on Puget sound, and for a tender for the light house service in Hawaii. Wednesday, January 31. Washington, Jan. 31.—Discussion of the railroad rate bill continued in the house today. Incident to it two speeches, the efforts of Campbell, of Kansas, and Martin, of South Dakota, took a wide range and swept the horizon of "trust evils" generally. Bartlett, of Georgia, a minority member of the committee reporting the bill, made a two hours' speech, in which he discussed the legal and constitutional questions involved and advocated the passage of the bill as a proper remedy for an intolerable condition. The first speech in opposition to the bill, which concluded the day's discussion, was made by Perkins, of New York. He based his opposition to government control of rates on an inherent aversion to government control of business enterprises. Red tape and fixed conditions, he said were an inseparable part of government action on any matter. A bill was passed granting a Federal charter to the Carnegie fund for the advancement of teaching. The fund consists of $10,000,000, the income of which is to furnish pensions to retired educators. Washington, Jan. 31.—In the senate today Patterson strongly endorsed the position of the president in Santo Domingo and in the matter of the Moroccan conference. He said that he was sorry to differ from his Democratic colleagues, but that he felt it is duty to do so in these matters. He also expressed absolute confidence in the patriotism of the president and in his good faith in announcing his determination not again to be a candidate for the presidency. The remainder of the session was devoted to a debate on the shipping bill. Tuesday, January 30 Washington, Jan. 30. — Members of the house evinced a more general interest in the discussion of the railroad rate bill throughout today than in any other topic of legislation for some time. The debate throughout was listened to attentively and many questions were asked of the different speakers to bring out either obscure points in the measure, or evils complained of, which no attempt had been made to include in the bill. The debate was opened by Townsend, of Michigan. Adams, of Georgia, representing the minority, followed in commendation of the measure, and in praise of President Roosevelt's stand on the question. Hinshaw, of Nebraska, depicted the benefit the legislation would do to the great trans-Mississippi country, and Richardson, of Alabama, discussed as a Democrat things done and left undone in the measure. The senate today passed 40 bills, many of them of considerable importance. The list included a number of measures for light houses, for signals, revenue cutters and public buildings, and also the bill providing for the reorganization of the consular service. The chipping bill was under consid- The shipping bill was under consid. Offers to Build Railroads Washington, Jan 31.—Willard Reed Green, of New York, representing a syndicate of capitalists and contractors, has filed a bid with the War department for the construction of the proposed system of railways in the Philippines. Mr. Green and his associates contend that there has been no competition, and that the matter is still open, although the department has practically accepted a part of one of the bids. The bid presented by Mr. Green proposes the construction of a minimum of 1,000 miles of railroad. NO. 41. eration for a time. It was amended so as to relieve it of constitutional objections and Lodge delivered a speech in support of the bill, in which he gave the details of a combination of the owners of foreign sailing vessels for the purpose of controlling the freight rate in grain shipments from the United States. There was also a discussion of the bills making common carriers liable for injuries to employees, which arose over the question of their reference to committees. Patterson gave notice of a speech tomorrow on the Moroccan and Dominican questions. Monday. January 29. Washington, Jan. 29. — The Chinese boycott and the administration of the forest reserves divided the attention of the senate today. The Chinese question came up in connection with a resolution of Tillman, directing an investigation by the committee on immigration. Tillman modified the resolution by omitting the major portion of the preamble, and, after considerable discussion, it was referred to the committee on contingent expenses. Heyburn raised the question regarding the reservation of forests. He sharply criticized the methods of the Forestry bureau and charged it with maintaining a press bureau for the purpose of attacking him. He declined, however, to hold the president responsible for this course. He said that the course was calculated to retard the development of the West. Washington, Jan. 29. —What is considered a strike at the railroads was taken by the house today in the adoption of a resolution calling on the president to furnish information as to the existence of an agreement, in violation of the interstate commerce law, among the Pennsylvania, Baltimore & Ohio, Norfolk & Western, Chesapeake & Ohio, Ohio & Northern Central and Philadelphia, Baltimore & Washington railroad companies. Opposition to the resolution did not develop until after it had been declared adopted by the speaker. At this point Dalzell, of Pennsylvania, moved to reconsider. This motion was laid on the table with the aid of 37 Republican votes united with the Democrats, under a rule which makes it impossible to reconsider the resolution without a two-thirds vote of this house. Saturday. January 27. Washington, Jan. 27. — In a session of two hours today the house passed the urgent deficiency appropriation bill, carrying $15,216,103, incorporated in which is a provision that the eight-hour law shall not apply to alien laborers on the Panama canal. In addition it passed 262 private pension bills and read the Mann general bridge bill, making it the unfinished business for Monday. Chairman Hephburn today reported to the house his railroad rate bill with the favorable recommendation of the entire committee. The bill will come up next week. Friday, Jan. 26. Washington, Jan. 26.—The first attempt at filibustering during this session occurred in the house today on a Democratic endeavor to deaf the provision of the urgent deficiency bill waiving the eight-hour law for foreign laborers on the Panama canal. The amendment was placed in the bill in committee of the whole after the house had divided many times on every pretext which Williams could make the cause for a vote. When the bill was finally finished, late in the day, a demand for a separate vote and roll-call on that amendment was made and ordered, at which time the house adjourned. The vote will occur tomorrow. The amendment was ruled out of the bill on a point of order on Tuesday, and its insertion today was effected under the provisions of a special rule brought in from the rules committee for the purpose. The only other controversy of the day resulted from an attempt to increase by $115,000 the amount for meat inspection by the department of Agriculture. This increase was refused after an animated debate. Washington, Feb. 1.—The monthly statement of the public debt issued today shows that the debt less cash in the treasury amounts to $991,524,646, which is a decrease for the month of $3,345,072. Light on Boycott. Washington, Jan. 31 —The senate will begin the week with the consideration of the Chinese boycott. The question will come up in connection with a resolution offered last week by Senator Tillman, directing the committee on immigration to investigate the reports concerning Chinese opposition to American manufactures. When the question was presented Mr. Tillman asked for immediate consideration, but Mr. Aldrich objected. It is understood that he and other Republican senators dislike the preamble to the resolution. Topics of the Times All the world loves a lover—loves to josh him, that is. Why is it that the higher prices an author gets, the poorer stories he writes? To obtain real parlor-like football, future contests might be referred to The Hague tribunal. Now that the chorus girls have formed a union, will the "Johnnies" have to combine for protection? The Russians are inventive enough to discover the merits of the universal strike as a political weapon. If a Congressman wants to appear peculiar, he will not introduce a single bill to regulate railway rates. In selecting his future "young partners" Carnegie should remember that boys will sometimes be old boys. In his capacity as a physician Dr. Osler seems to have been present at an alarming number of death beds. It is rather doubtful whether the double-headed eagle or the red flag is the present national standard of Russia. It has been nearly a century since a Russian Czar said to an English diplomat: "There is a sick man in Europe;" and Turkey is still alive. By abolishing free transportation the railroads will sidetrack some politicians who are deadheads in more than one sense. Mr. Root has an idea that the consular service could be used to better advantage than as a refuge for played-out politicians. A statement of the steps to be taken to prevent a recurrence of slugging at Annapolis, under the "code," would be grateful to the public. Only twenty boys were killed and 205 badly maimed in the recent football season, yet there are some people who think the rules ought to be reformed. While the gift made for President Roosevelt is the first gold heart Colorado has ever given, she has in times past distributed quite an assortment of marble hearts to other statesmen. There is a Kalogeropoulous in the new Greek cabinet. Probably he is a cousin, several syllables removed, of the celebrated James J. Pappatheodorokomountourgeotopoulous of Chicago. The hazers must go, and the sooner they go the better it will be for everybody but the hazers. It will not make much difference to the world what happens to them after they are put out. It was something of a shock to hear that a man who could earn Jimmie Hyde's enormous salary in the insurance business was not regarded as having the intellectual equipment needful for an ambassador. --- Dr. Osler, late of Baltimore and now regius professor of medicine at Oxford, appeared on the same platform with Mr. Joseph Chamberlain recently. According to the professor's pet theory Joseph ought to have been asphyxiated some thirty years ago. The announcement that Columbia University has decided to abolish football after this year will cause the football world to sit up straight in astonishment. It demonstrates better than anything else the degree to which public condemnation of the game as now played has gone. Well may the advocates of the gridiron game cry aloud, "Reform, reform or we perish!" Bad water is said to kill more soldiers than are slain by bullets, and it is not improbable that if statistics were obtainable they would show that more sailors perish in accident of one kind of another—including shipwreck than are lost in battle. Disasters like that which overtook the Benington are by no means rare and their victims aggregate a great number of men. When the hazards of the sea are added to the peril of explosion of magazines and steam boilers the sailor takes almost as many chances in peace as in war. All over the United States men are talking of graft and grafting and grafters. They don't have to explain what they mean; everybody know. Webster may be ignorant of the words, in the new American use which makes them so useful; the Century may acknowledge them not; it isn't of the slightest consequence. They are fresh from the people's mind, they were needed, they pass current and they have come to stay. Only the other day the interdenomination conference in New York refused to weaken one of its resolutions by striking out "graft" and putting "dishonesty" in its place. "But it is a slang term," objected Rev. H. H. Oberley of New Jersey. What if it is? A word that "makes good" in the common speech of to-day will be in the dictionaries to-morrow. Wisconsin and California have each established a "legislative reference u- brary," a department of the Legislature in charge of experts in finance, law, economics, history. Its function is to furnish to the legislators impartial information bearing upon any bills, enactments or measures which the lawmakers have under consideration. If a legislative committee is considering a bill, the librarian finds out what has been done in other States and other nations, discovers all the legal relations of the problem, and helps to phrase the bill so that it will work if it becomes law. Thus much blundering, much unnecessary legislation, many evils that result from hasty, inexperienced legislation will be checked. The courts are always struggling with ill-phrased, ambiguous, contradictory laws. Indeed, the judiciary departments waste much time gathering up loose ends left by the legislative bodies. The idea of the reference library is not to interfere with or influence legislation, but to assist it, clarify it, and relate it at its inception to the legal experience of the world which it must encounter later. This work is somewhat like the duties of the British treasury counsel and government draftsmen, to whom bills are submitted for phrasing and collating before they are presented to Parliament for final vote. "Marriage and home ties are detrimental to the artist's work," says the head of the French Academy of Fine Arts. "One must choose between the married and the intellectual life," maintains a woman official of the University of Chicago. There would be no sound if there were no ears to hear, and likewise art and literature would be without value if there was no posterity which had inherited literary and artistic appreciation. Man's work is but half done if he gives only art and no artists, only books and no writers to the world. Intellectual strength and artistic temperament must be perpetuated in blood as well as on paper and canvas. No muse, however alluring, is as powerful to spur a man on to great effort as the clinging dependence and loving faith of wife and children. He works best who works for someone else that loves him. Love is the great source of power throughout all the universe. Harriet Beecher Stowe rocked the crable or made bread between the lines of "Uncle Tom's Cabin," yet it stirred a nation as few books have. What artist may decide that his art has reached the highest point of perfection; that it is the exponent of highest inspiration and greatest possible skill? Mountains do not rise abruptly from the plains. He may be only one of the foothills in a chain, which, if unbroken, will at last blend with the sky. That glorious crown of horticultural art—the American beauty rose—did not bloom in the fullness of its deep-hearted loveliness on the humble parent wild bush. Generations of patient pruning and trimming, of preserving the best and casting out the worst, of combining and thus strengthening the fine qualities, life between the simple, dainty, wild rose and the mature, perfect American Beauty. And the end may not yet be. So it is with men. It took seven generations of ministers to produce an Emerson, and it is written of Raphael's father that he might rank as a great artist had he not been so unfortunate as to have a son who outclassed him. The vital truth is larger than literature and art alone. Goethe sounded the deeper and broader worth of a man when he said: "Whoever has best served his own people in his time, he has lived for all time." Men become immortal through their children more often than through their work. Selecting Volunteers. Whenever the United States has been at war with any other country it has always been a matter for serious complaint on the other side that the Americans take accurate aim before firing—with extremely fatal results. How excellent was the marksmanship of the volunteers on Bunker Hill is a matter of record. There is an interesting entry in the diary of John Harrower, an indentured schoolmaster of Virginia. "Colonel Washington, of this colony," he wrote, "being appointed generalissimo of all the American forces raised and to be raised, made a demand of five hundred riflemen from the fronteers of this colony. But those that insisted on going far exceeded the number wanted, when, in order to avoid giving offense, the Commanding Officer chuse his company by the following method. "He took a board of a foot square, and with chalk drew the shape of a moderate nose in the centre and nailed it up to a tree at one hundred and fifty yards distance and those who came nighest the mark with a single ball was to go. But by the first forty or fifty that fired the nose was all blown out of the board, and by the time his Company was up the whole board had shared the same fate. Hot Shot "Hello!" said the country editor, by way of greeting, "what are you filling that saw for?" "Cause it's dull," retorted the grouchy old farmer; "what'd ye s'pose?" "Ah! do you always file things that are dull?" "Wal, no; I never file that ding-batted paper o' yourn." — Catholic Standard and Times. Why is it that people who say disagreeable things to one's face are called honest, and people who say pleasant things are called flatterers? Not all who think they think have thoughts. THE NEW AGE.

Some of the officers and workers of thé Northwest Sabbath School asso- elation, which has just held a conven- ‘ion in Portland, should have lived in New England about two centuries ago, when the “blue laws” were in foree, and a man dared not kiss his wife or smile at his baby on Sunday (which by the way is not the “Sab- dath’ anyway). These“unco guid” peo- plefould have laws forcing everybody to observe strictly what their narrow, befagged minds interpret to be the “Bible Sabbath”; they would allow no work and no play, but everybody would be compelled, under heavy pen- alties, perhaps capital punishment, to go to church twice at least on Sun- day, contributing liberally each time, and spend the rest of the time look- ing glum and being miserable and making everybody around them mis- erable. There would be no Sunday trains or newspapers, or Sun- day cooking. Wherever a train or steamship = was at 12 (midnight) Saturday there it must stop for 24 hours, even if it result- ed in forty collisions and the death of hundreds of people next day. These shallow, silly goody-goody folk protest against Sunday papers, not being competent to understand | that the work of making a Sunday pa: Ber is almost all done before Sunday begins, and that it is rather the Mon-' day paper, if any, that must be sup-| ressed. So with all thelr crack: ‘Drained Sabatarian theories, they are ‘utterly impracticable and anachron- ous. The great teacher whom they Iprotess to follow sald that “the Sab- bath was made for man, not man for the Sabbath,” and he djd about the same on the Sabbath as on other days. God is revealed in nature all around us rather than in any book,’ and nature observes no Sabbath or | Sunday. Plants grow; the atmos- phere circulates; the sun shines; the’ rain falls, and the birds sing on Sun- day as well as on any other day. | It is well to observe one day of rest out of seven, for both physical and moral reasons, but Sunday, or the Sabbath, is wholly a man-made insti tution, and there are quite a-plenty of laws for its observance. It should be free for all who choose to do so to observe it religiously, without mo- lestation or annoyance, but it should also be free to all to make it a day of lawful and decent recreation, or in which to work if necessity pees! If these good people who want to force everybody to their way of thinking and acting had the power, they would be torturing people and putting them to death for not agree- ing and acting with them, as was done by their religious predecessors and progenitors centuries ago. They are alive at least two centuries: be- hind their proper time. | MORE ABOUT THE PLEDGE. The Evening Journal insists that Republican condidates for the legis: lature who take the “Pledge No. 1” of the primary nomination law will béin honor and duty obligated to yote for a Democrat if one should re- celve a higher popular yote than any one Republican candidate, even though the aggregate Republican vote were three or four times the Demo- cratic vote. For example, suppose 100,000. votes are cast for the legislative ticket next June, and Mr, Gearin should reccive 30,000. of them, a probably liberal es- timate for a Democrat, and the 70,000 Republican votes should be divided among three or four candidates, the highest one of whom should receive only 29,000 -votes; then, according to the Journal, it would be the bounden duty of all the Republicans in the leg- islature, even though $0 out of the 90 members of that hody should te Re- publicans, to vote for Mr. Gearin. It is true that a strict construction of the law would require this of mem- bers signing the pledge, but we do not believe that this was intended by the framers of the law; if .t was, the pledge should not be given. If there ig any political office that of United States senator’ is one, and if this state is Republican by a majority of 50,000, or 40,000, or even less, and it it elects a large majority of Repub- Means to the legislature, as will nd doubt be the case, then it is manifest- ly ridiculous, and not in accordance with the expressed will of the peo- ple, that these Republicans should elect a Democrat, even a personally good, able and popular man like Mr. Gearin, to the senate, ‘The only reasonable way for~can- didates to do, if they give this pledge, is to do so with a condition attached, namely, that they will vote for the man of their own party receiving the highest popular vote.” ‘This is. what the law should have provided. It would be well, also, to reserve the right to vote for either one of two or three candidates receiving nearly an equal number of votes. The people should not ask or expect members of the legislature to tie themselves up so absolutely on this proposition as they would, under this interpretation | of the law, by giving this pledge. LYNCHINGS IN MISSISSIPPI. | Governor Vardaman of Mississippi [has in some instances done what he \could to prevent lynchings of Negroes jin that state, and in one or two cases has done so, but that his ran- ‘corous and extreme contempt for and |malignant hatred of the Negro race, in any other capacity except that of saves, so often and virulently ex- ‘pressed in public, has done more to induce lynebings than jis efforts in certain cases have to prevent them, is to be inferred from the fact that 20 Negroes were lynched in Missis- sippl in 1905, as against 18 in 1904, Not only were a score of colored men thus savagely murdered in that state last year, but only two of them were alleged to be guilty of the crime for which some Southerners ciaim that lynching is justifiable and the only preventive. When people get in the habit of lynching men on account of their race and color, rather than on account of the enormity of the crime charged—that is, when they become imbued with the idea that a colored man’s life is no more sacred, under any circumstances, thai that of a low- Be animal—then they will lynch a “nigger” for almost any crime, or even on suspicion of having commit- ted a crime. It is professed by Ne- grophobic Southern papers that lynching of colored men is resorted to only in cases of their assaults on eniis women, but it appears that in ‘Mississippi last year 18 out of the 20 lynched were not charged with that offense at all. As the Indianapolis Star remarks: “Governor Vardaman hates Negroes and does net try to conceal his hat- red of them. He charges that they ‘are of such a low order of creation that it is actually a menace to edu- cate them ever so slightly. Is it not possible that the constant preaching of this view by the chief executive of the state has had the effect of em- bittering many minds against the Ne- gro and has resulted in this ghasdy array of unwarranted murders, un- warranted even by the rule of South- ern chivalry? Is it not possible that the leaders of the mobs that have put to death Negroes for ordinary crimes have accepted the Vardaman view that the Negro is a blot in the creative plan and one that should be erased wherever possible? It looks as though Vardaman's chickens were coming home to roost.” TILLMAN TO BE HONORED. The chief guest of honor and prin. cipal speaker at an annual blowout of the Democrats of New York City is to be Senator Benjamin R. Tillman of South Carolina, commonly called “Pitehfork” Tillman. To thus single out this ruffian for preferment and honor, and to sit at his feet to learn democratic’ doctrine, is evidence of the evil and rotten character, politi- cally, if not otherwise, of the New York Demoerats who invited and will listen to him. It is an unnecessary insult not only to every colored per son in the country, but to reasonable white people too. ‘These Democrats profess to be in sympathy to a large extent with President Roosevelt, but they thus take pains to publicly hon- or and applaud a man who has out- rageously slandered and vilely at- tacked the president. Tillman is a confessed anarchist and criminal in intent for he has openly advocated the lynching of colored men, and he has brazenly and with the blustering of the swashbuckler that he is, de fied the constitution and laws of the United States. He is a big cowardly bulfy of much the same type as his nephew who armed himself and mur- dered an editor who had criticized him, giving his victim no chance for his life. If the New York Tammany society of Democrats and rascais— for most of them are such—can get no better type of Democrat to honor and listen to, it should forthwith lose what little respect, if any, anybody ever had for it. NEGROES ON THE ISTHMUS. ‘We are not disposed to place im- ‘plicit credence in the report of con: ditions on the Isthmus of Panama by Poultney Bigelow, who seems to love notoriety too well to confine himself always to facts, but that there was a good deal more truth in his represen- tations than the government would ac- knowledge may well be believed, and in some respects he has been con- firmed by other observers and inves- tigators, One thing appears to be clear, that the Negro laborers there are not very well provided for from a sanitary point of view, are under- paid, and are mistreated in other ways. The fault for this cannot, at least at first, be laid upon the prest- dent or Secretary Taft, for they can- not know in detail all that is done and much depends largely on subor- dinates; Dut, if as appears to be thé case, colored laborers are paid only $1 a day, being required to work ten hours, in that stifling, unhealthy cli- mate; if their pay is often in arrears so that they cannot provide thtm- selves with necessaries, and if they are huddled together in swampy, un- sanitary quarters, the government ought frankly to acknowledge that conditions down there have not been just right and lose no time In reme- dying them. These men are entitled to fair pay, especially when a horde of dodlittles or do-nothings are.draw- ing fat salari¢s, and to decent treat- ment otherwise, PROPOSED NEW LAWS. ‘There is likely to be a big muddle and lots of expensive and exasperat- ing litigation if the two proposed laws for amending the assessment and taxation laws are adopted next June, and since some voters will pre- fer one law and some the other, the only safe course to pursue is to vote against them both and so avoid no end of trouble, although there are doubtless some good features in both bills. Some other petitions for new laws are in circulation, and a part of them at least appear to be good changes, but where so many proposed new laws are submitted, the average voter will not know much about them, and perhaps will care less, and so it may ‘be apprehended that most, if not all, of them will be-rejected, which may be best, for then on another occasion perhaps the reformers will concen- trate their efforts more and not try to reform/the laws too much at a time. | 7 4 There is also the woman suffrage constitutional amendment to be voted on, and as women are divided on the proposition, many good women op- posing, as well as many favoring it, there is no reasonable ground for ex- pectation that the result will be dif- ferent from what it has been on two former occasions, Several “Bastern papers have com- plimented Senator Fulton on the able and well-considered) speech he made in the senate a few days ago on the rate bill, it having attracted a good deal of attention and showing much ability and a thorough consideration RTLAND. OREGON. of his subject. In all but polities— apd in many cases this does not cut gmuch figure—Senators Fulton an¢ Gearin make a good team. eee | Mr. A.-A. Bailey and Mr. G. M. Or ton, both connected with “the art pre servative of arts,” having “served in the lower house, now seek to become state senators. They are men of ex perience and, so far as we know, good records—but doubtless there will be other candidates. They should be carefully chosen. eee | Mr. Benson, a Southern Oregon law. yer, is circulating among the voters in the interest of his candidacy for secretary of state. His friends claim that he is a very competent man, and will make a strong race, but he will have to do some hustling to beat a Salem man, or perhaps one from Portland. see | It is naturally supposed that the candidacy of Lachner and Rand, of ‘enced City, not to mention Aitkin of Huntington, in Baker . county, will leona impair the chances of Mr. Johns, candidate for governor, and |it so it is believed that Professor jWithycombe will be the chief bene. ficiary. | It is conceded generally that Pro- fessor J. H. Ackerman has made a ivery good superintendent of public in- struction, but a good many prominent teachers, some of whom, perhaps, have an eye on the office themselves, ‘are intimating that two terms are enough. see | Mr. J. P.

ORDER MEAL BY PICTURE. Men Unfamiliar with Spanish Sur- prised at Walter's Interpretation. Former State Senator W. 'T. Mc Graw, while at Torreon, Mexico, look- ing after his mining interests, came to the conclusion that he would like a steak and mushrooms, With Harry 3. Bennett of Detroit, Mr. McGraw step- ped Into a restaurant. He tried his limited Spanish and Bennett added his store of knowledge of the language, but nelther could make the walter un- derstand. “Why don’t you take a pencil and make a picture of what you want?” asked Bennett. “A good Idea,” replied the former Senator. “I never tought of that, Bennett ; that head of yours 1s a good one.” ‘Taking a pencil from his pocket, Mr. McGraw produced an envelope, and with great care drew the outlines of a cow. To be sure that the walter would understand the kind of animal intended in the pleture Mr. McGraw added the regulation Texas horns: then he carefully drew the picture of a mushroom, At this the waiter's countenance was aglow with intelll- gence and he smiled and bowed to the ‘Americano, nodded his head vigorous- ly and disappeared. McGraw and Bennett smoked thetr cigarettes in contentment. “That was fa happy thought of yours, Bennett,” remarked McGraw. “Hereafter when Tam in a forelgn country and can not dig up enough of the language to make myself understood I will draw upon my ability as a cartoonist. ‘That idea is a winner.” Bennett smiled at the praise bestow- ed upon hiis ingenuity and both grew more hungry. “Humph,” growled McGraw. “I guess that Mexican has gone to a ranch to get that animal.” “Perhaps he 18 looking for a cow with horns Jong enough to meet the re- quirements of your specifications,” sug- gested Bennett with a grin, you nedn't make fun of my draw- ing,” bridled McGraw. "Wasn't tt plain enough? “Oh, certainly, certainty,” replied Bennett soothingly. "But bere comes ‘our waiter.” "The Mexican, all smilles and pers- piration and almost out of breath from ‘the unheard-of feat of really hustling, entered the restaurant, and with an ‘air of triumph laid down a ticket to ‘the bulifigut and—an umbrella. “Bennett roared and McGraw Ypald for the articles, with an American ex- clamation under his mustache. At an- ‘other restaurant they secured a platn steak.—Detroit Free Press. 3 A Wifely Hint. “Maria, can't you leave @ little some- thing to eat where I can find it when I come home late at night?

PORTLAND. OREGON. It Came Upon the Midnight Clear. It came upon the midnight clo That glorious song of old. From angels bending near the earth To touch their harps of gold; "Peace on the earth, good will to men From Heaven's all-gracious King." The world in solemn stillness lay To hear the angels sing. Still through the cloven skies they come With peaceful wings unfurl'd. And still their heavenly music floats O'er all the weary world. Above its sad and lowly plains They bend on hovering wing, And ever o'er its Babel sounds The blessed angels sing. But with the woes of sin and strife The world has suffer'd long; Beneath the angel-strain have roll'd Two thousand years of wrong; And man, at war with man, hears not The loves-song which they bring. Oh! hush the noise, ye men of strife, And hear the angels sing! And ye, beneath life's crushing load Whose forms are bending low, Who toll along the climbing way With painful steps and slow, Look now! for glad and golden hours Come swiftly on the wing. Oh! rest beside the weary road, And hear the angels sing! For lo! the days are hastening on, By prophet-bards foretold, When with the ever-circling years Comes round the age of gold; When peace shall over all the earth Its ancient splendens fling. And the whole world send back the song Which now the angels sing! —Edmund H. Sears. Good-By, Sweet Day. Good-by, sweet day, good-by! I have so loved thee, but I cannot hold thee. Departing like a dream the shadows fold thee; Slowly thy perfect beauty fades away; Good-by, sweet day! Good-by, sweet day, good-by! Dear were thy golden hours of tranquil splendor, Sadly thou yieldest to the evening tender Who wert so fair from thy first morning ray; Good-by, sweet day! Good-by, sweet day, good-by! Thy glow and charm, thy smiles and tones and glances, Vanish at last, and solemn night advances; Ah, couldst thou yet a little longer stay! Good-by, sweet day! THE VERY FIRST MATCH. John Walker, an English Drooggl, Was the Inventor in 1827. In the nineteenth century—the century in which so many wonderful things were done—the fourth step in the development of the match was taken. In 1827, John Walker, a druggist in a small English town, tipped a splint with sulphur, chlorate of potash and sulphid of antimony, and rubbed it on sandpaper, and it burst into flame. The druggist had discovered the first friction-chemical match, the kind we use to-day. It is called friction-chemical because it is made by mixing certain chemicals together and rubbing them. Although Walker's match did not require the bottle of acid, it nevertheless was not a good one. It could be lighted only by hard rubbing, and it sputtered and threw fire in all directions. In a few years, however, phosphorus was substituted on the tip for antimony, and the change worked wonders. The match could now be lighted with very little rubbing, and it was no longer necessary to have sandpaper upon which to rub it. It would ignite when rubbed on any dry surface, and there was no longer any sputtering. This was the phosphorus match, the match with which we are so familiar. After the invention of the easily lighted phosphorus match there was no longer use for the dip-splint or the strike-a-light. The old methods of getting a blaze were gradually laid aside and forgotten. The first phosphorus matches were sold at 25 cents a block—a block containing 144 matches—and they were used by but few. Now a hundred matches can be bought for a cent. It is said that in the United we use about 150,000,000 matches a year. This, on an average, is about five matches a day for every person.—St Nicholas. "What are you doing now?" "I'm putting a new patent safety razor on the market." "Good thing?" "Well, it's the kind of a razor that impels the man who shaves with it to go back to the regular shop again—and the professional barbers pay me a handsome salary for introducing it." —Cleveland Plain Dealer.

LEADING HOTELS FIRST-CLASS FIREPROOF $3.00 PER DAY --- Francis Lewis, signer of the Declaration of Independence, was born in Llandaff, Wales, and educated in the city of London. On coming of age he at once embarked to the American colonies, establishing himself in a commercial business in New York. JOHN WILLIAM HENRY At the time when the colonies were in a state of unrest and war seemed the inevitable solution of the difficulty and FRANCIS LEWIS. the difficulties and wrongs of the colonists, Lewis, although aware of the fact that war was certain to wreck his business and to endanger his personal interests, at once threw his lot with that of the revolutionists. He aided their deliberations with his good business judgment. He freely distributed his money to aid their cause. His own house at Whitestone, Long Island, was burned by the British and his wife imprisoned in the city. Lewis was one of the first to join the Sons of Liberty. He was a member of the New York committee in the first Continental Congress and served on several advisory bodies. He was one of the signers of the Declaration of Independence. He was commissioner of the board of admiralty and held several important and honorary offices under the new government. He was a man whose opinion was held in such value by his townsmen that to his influence and example was due the loyalty of many a citizen of New York.

Raymond, Chief Justice of the United States Court of Appeals of Indian Territory, was a factory hand ut Onarga, ill., at 90 cents a day, twenty-five years ago. He resolved to become a lawyer, and made application to Henry A. Butzow, the county clerk of his county, for employment. The clerk wrote him that at that time he did not need any further assistance, but that the future might bring a demand for additional help. He closed his letter as follows: "Our work is adding, adding, adding, all day long. Did you ever try it?" Young Raymond was equal to the occasion, and answered the clerk on a postal card, as follows: "No, I have never tried adding, adding, adding, all day long, but I can try, try, try, and I won't fall."—Success Magazine. Not a Born Forger. The indorsement of checks is a very simple thing, but, as the following story will show, it, too, has its difficulties: A woman went into a bank where she had several times presented checks drawn to Mrs. Lucy B. Smith. This time the check was made to the order of Mrs. M. J. Smith—M. J. were her husband's initials. She explained this to the paying teller, and asked what she should do. "Oh, that is all right," he said. "Just indorse it as it is written there." She took the check, and after much hesitation, said, "I don't think I can make an M like that." Airy Fiction.

Mountains, lakes, the Sound and the city itself form one magnificent panorama not found anywhere on earth. 9th—The hotel lobby, parlors, Turkish room, etc., are exquisite, and form a continuation of comfort and luxury not often found in hotels. 10th—A Dutch grill has recently been added, where service may be had at all hours. 11th—The dining room cannot be excelled. Breakfast and lunch are served a la carte, at most reasonable prices, and a table d' hote dinner for $1.00 is pronounced by all to be above criticism. 12th—Rates—Extremely reasonable.

It was agreed, says the Washington Post, that when either said “I've enough” the fight should cease. ‘After they had been at it about ten minutes one of them fell, and imme. diately yelled, “Enough, I've enough!” But his opponent kept on pounding him until a man who was watching them said: “Why don't you let him up? He says he’s got enough.”" “I know he says so,” said the vic- tor, between punches, “but he’s such a liar you can't believe a word he wigs Dr. P. I. T. Heroult, the French ‘metallurgical expert, who has been ex- amining the mining and other re [sources of Canada, predicts that Iu ‘ten years the Dominion will have be- jcome @ great metallurgical country, having an tron industry larger than that of any other country in the world. So, too, he thinks that within a decade Canada will outstrip all other countries in wheat growing. In Ontario and Quebec there are immense deposits of magnetite, which have remained unde- veloped for lack of cheap fuel. The {nyention of the electric smelting pro- cess removes this obstacle, because In the nelghborhood of the ore deposits water power ts abundant. ‘The importation of injurious birds and mammals into the United States has been carefully guarded against since the passage of the Lacy act on May 25, 1900. In the five years end- ing June 30, 1905, the authorities Is- sued 191 permits for the entry of 1,006,064 birds (chiefly canaries), 2,846 mammals and thirty-eight reptiles, and ‘thirteen permits for the entry of 6,500 eggs of game birds. Of the consign- ments 402 were inspected. No injurl- ‘ous animal {s known to havesbebn ad- mitted, but seven mongooses, fifty-four flying foxes or frult-eating bats, ono kohimelse, fteen blanmelsen and two starlitigs have been refused entry. At [Honolulu six keas were refused sutry. Statistics showing the enormous waste of energy involved in the pro- duction of artificial light are always interesting, {f for no other reason than that they must continually stimulate Inventors in the search for better methods, Sir James Dewar recently presented these figures before the Royal Institute of Great Britain: In an ordinary candle the total amount ot energy transformed into light Is only 2 per cent. Oll and gas inmps ‘are not more economical. ‘The tncan- descent electric lamp utilizes 3 per cent of the energy expended; the arc light 10 per cent, and the magnesium light 13 per cent. ‘Then comes the glowworm and mocks us with its-09 per cent of expended energy turned into light. The possible value of radium to the physician still remains chiefly a mat- ter of conjecture. ‘Two Italians, Tiz- zon} and Bongiovannl, have satisited themselves that it has an Important influence upon rabies, and that it may act either upon the virus or directly upon the bitten antmal. When the virus 1s exposed for four to thirty-six hours to radium rays it 18 converted Into a powerful vaccine, injections into a rabbit's eye overcoming the other- wise fatal effects of inoculations with dog's virus. With a powerful specl- men of radium, the direct exposures of several hours during six days, ant- mals tnoculated forty-eight to one bun- dred hours before treatment were sav- ed, while similarly inoculated animals not treated all died. It 1s well known that pure quartz glass possesses the property of trans- mitting, very abundantly, the so-called chemical rays of light, by means of which photographie effects are produc- ed, and it has often been attempted to make photographic lenses of quartz alone. Unfortunately, quartz also pos- sesses the property of double refrac tion, so that, unless the opening of the lenses 1s very narrow, good images are not produced. Recently a French optician, F. Morin, has succeeded In making small photographie leuses of quartz glass in which some of the difficulties have been avoided, and the lenses show great rapidity of action. Still, the problem, confessedls, has not been entirely solved, and the new leuses are recommended by thelr tn ventor only for special purposes. As- tronomers are particularly desirous fe) obtain photographie lenses possessing the peculiar permeablltty to the actinie Se ne a a ‘A Lack of Orphans. ‘The Irish duelist who lamented havs Ing “as pretty a challenge as ever was penned, but no one to whom to give it,” was in the same trouble as the mu- nicipality of Paris, The city has a fine orphanage, lberally appointed and"with an ample staff, but with no orphans, A Mme. ‘Tamices left nearly a million and her villa at Orsay to be maintained as an orphanage for girls of the eighth arrondissement. The girls were to bo provided with a dowry on leaving. Paris has searched the highways and byways of the district, and but two or phans have been found. Divided on Religion. A curious diversity of religious be Hef Is observable In the familly of Lord Stanley of Alderley. ‘The last previous holder of the title, a brother of the present peer, died in the Mussulman faith and ‘ves buried according to the rites of Islam. Another brother be- came a convert to the Roman Catholic faith and 1s now a domestic prelate to the Pope. One of Lord Stanley's nephews {s a Buddbist, and 2 brother tolaw, now dead, was an atheist. It the S0mes eS plans that meet daily requirements, men would have two more legs that they might cofistantly be kicking themselves, and women would have six more palr of hands that they might keep up with the work the chil- dren make around the house. As a town grows older, It becomes inore and more expensive for a man to be a satisfactory father. | _Mand-Pressed OW of Lemon. | “This off of lemon,” sald the spice merchant, “ls an exquisite thing. It Is hand-pressed—pressed by hand out of lemon rind. Smell it.” The odor of the clear oil suggested sunlit lemon groves miles in extent on @ mountainside overlooking the blue sea, /“T'N tell you how the oll of lemon {s extracted,” he said. “A man sits with a sponge in one hand and a piece of fresh“lemon peel in the other, He presses the peel against the sponge, giving it finally a certain difficult and dexterous twist, and this breaks the cells in the rind, and the oil—there's only a half drop of {t—comes reluc tantly out upon the sponge. “When the sponge has taken up the dribblings of about a hundred rinds, it is wet enough to be squeezed out. Ar ounce or so of clear and fragrant oi them flows from it. “There {s no way to extract this ol! within a lemon rind except by squeez ing and twisting the rind by hand. It takes the rinds of about 1,200 lemons to make one pound of oll.” “Our English cousins,” remarked the womamr who has just returned from the land of John Bull, “do not walt until the arrival of Hallowe'en to become interested In the tasty and nu- tritious nut.

For lunch- eon or for tea these nuts were quite the most delicious things I ate. They were served fresh and green, with de- lictous brown bread and butter and a salad made of crisp white lettuce leaves, with a French dressing. Over there these cobnuts come, as a rule, from the neighborhood of Kent.
