S SOCIALISTS WIN OUT Olds, Woftman & King Reichstag Election Proves a Big Victory. v "THE DIFFERENT STORE." FIFTH AND WASHINGTON STS. THE MORNING OREGONIAN, WEDNESDAY, JUNE 17, 1905. - SAXONY NOW THE "RED LAND' Escapade of the Late Crows Prln. cess Coits the Govcniment Forces 3Ian" Totes "Women. Bring Out the Laggards. BERLIN, June 16. Tho leading feature In the Reichstag election -which -was held today, -was the success of the Social Dem ocrats, -who have probably increased their representation in the Reichstag- by 15 seats, and their total vote to 250,000, or 400,000 more than in 189S. All the parties concede the success of the Socialists, -which has been at the expense of them all. Tho Socialists gained one seat and 63,000 votes In Berlin, and seats la Dres den, Sollngen, Plrano, Plauen, Slttau, DoebeL Altonburg, Dunstart, Schwarz burg, Blelfleld, Beyrouth and Bremen. They lost seats in Sorau and Bornburg. The Socialists gains in Saxony caused Herr Bebel tonight to call Saxony "the Red Kingdom." Tho most pronounced Socialist success -was In Essen, Krupp's town, "where the Socialists increased their vote from 4400 to 22,705. The Centrist party also increased its vote there from 20,103 to 35.186. An extraordinary feature of the polling In Berlin -was the part taken by Socialist women. Hundreds -went from house to house bringing out laggard voters, -wait-lug at the factories and mills, and accom panying the indifferent electors to the polls. While the other parties had paid workers, tne Socialists employed 7000 can vassers, who -were unpaid, and alone of all the parties they voted their full strength. They had bought up space on the municipal advertising pillars and placarded doors and -windows "with party legends. Fifty thousand copies of a poem, entitled "Vote Red," were circu lated. The affair of the late Crown Princess appears to have had some Influence in the elections in Saxony, -where great Social ist gains -were made, for example, 9000 at Chemnitz and 4300 at Leipsic. Exagger ated narratives regarding the -wrongs of the late Crown Princess passed from mouth to mouth. The court made simple denials. DEX3IA11IC HOLDS ELECTION".

A point of the campaign was the vote on tho reformed tax and the extension of communal suffrage. It was on the former point that Finance Minister Hage was defeated. The final results of tho polling shew: LiCft Reformist, 74 -seats; -Social Demo crats, 16 seats; members of the Right, 12 seats; moderate members of the Left, 11 seats. HUNGARIAN PREMIER RESIGNS.

A portion of tho fleet plays the part of the Japanese Navy, while the ships that came to the far East recently play that of the Russian navy. Admiral Alexleff Is commanding the move ments of the ships from his flagship, tho Rurlc. The scene of the maneuvers Is said to extend from the Gulf of Pe Chi LI to the Corean Sea, where the ships now sailing for the far East have arrived.

Apply the principle to stores. There are Just two kinds of stores today: The one living from hand to mouth, depending upon the open market, tak ing the riff-raff along with the good, getting styles second-hand, going to sleep and staying in It, only coming out long enough to whino when tho "Different Store" hurrahs. Tho other planning ahead, creating styles and fashions, getting merchan diso made to order, using the open market only when It Is to advantage to do so tho "FOREHANDED" 'DIFFERENT" STORE. Which do you deal with? Yes we want your trade are honest enough to ask for It, and square enough to tell you just why we deserve It- A manly hurrah beats a sickly whine any time don't you think so?

CHANGES FRONT IX MASSACRE. Father Cronstndt ott Holds That the Jews "Were Most at Fault. ST. PETERSBURG, June 16. Father John Cronstadt, whose flery condemna tion of tho Klshlnef massacre was pub lished in the St. Petersburg Liberal news papers, has published the folowing in the anti-Semltlo Quamln, the new organ In St. Petersburg: "To My Bellevors and Christian Friends From tho newspaper accounts succeeding the first published reports concerning the Klshlnef catastrophe, I have concluded that the Jews themselves were the cause of the disorders; that the Christians suffered In the end, and the Jews havo been doubly repaid by their losses and injuries by their own brethern and others. I know this from private letters which I have received from people who lived a long time In Klshlnef. who are well acquainted with affairs there, and who are most trustworthy. Therefore, I say to the Klshlnef Christians, forgive the reproach on account of the horrors that were committed, which I cast upon you alone. From tho letters of eye wit nesses. I am convinced that one can not lay all tho blame upon the Christians who were provoked to the disorders by the Jews and that the Jews were mainly re sponsible for the catastrophe. "No Russian newspaper of any weight has attempted to palliate tho massacre, or to lay the blame on the Jews." IXNOCEXT MAX IS KILLED. Church. Demonstration Cannes the Dentil of a Merchant.

TRAINING IN DUTY. "One of the Weak Spots in the Mod ern Public School System." Chicago Tribune. Tho Rev. Edward Everett Hale spoke to the students of Yalo on Sunday last and gave them some important advice in the matter of training in duty. Tho speaker was not applying his advice specially to Yale, but to all colleges, and particularly to public schools In general. He regretted that this kind of training Is no longer a fundamental part of edu cation; that "In the average school train ing is limited to some one day of the week;" and that "the average boy or girl under our training has a conceited no tlpn with regard to his or her Impor tance." Dr. Halo has hit one of the weak spots In the modern public school system the lack of training In duty duty to par ents", to superiors and to education. To that is due the lack of respect for au thority and obedience to discipline. There was an illustration of this the other da at the Elgin High school. The pupils of that school, who are old enough to have known better, with the exaggerated idea of their own Importance, of which Dr. Hale Justly complains, undertook to do Just as they pleased In every respect without regard to the regulations 6t the school or the authority of the principal. In a word, they were running the school and laughed at any attempt to restrain, them or to preserve order. One dayr whea the insubordination and disorder became too Intolerable to bear, the principal lost his temper; and, foolishly, perhaps, as saulted one of the offenders. Instead of suspending him or dismissing him altogether, whereupon he was assaulted in turn, and came near receiving seven punishment. Fortunately, In this case, the people of Elgin who are on the evo of electing a new board of education and a new superintendent, the old ono being deemed too severe, have changed their minds and will now re-elect tha old superintendent, with the view of th restoration of authority in the school. Tho caso at Elghi is not exceptional. In the city of Chicago there are children, who have no respect for the authorlty of teachers, and fancy they are running the school, and, worse still, there ara Bome teachera who have no reipect for the board of educaUon, and fancy they are the' managers of the school system. Dr. Hale is old and may be old-fashioned but his criticism Is none the less true, and It applies to everything In this coun try that 13 or should be subject to higher authority. Disrespect for the governing power In the state, in the school. In tha home Is a growing weakness in tho re public. Cruelty to children is obviously not a se rious affair la Austria. A father who jcUle'4 his child by 111 treatment was, th et&tr punished by eight days' arreau
