OUH BATOrtDAT NIOUT.
Tho question wtiat wo live for is
always Interesting. It Is a dlileront
proposition to each bumnu bolug
and no two will answer alike. If we
were to say the object of life was to
live well, it would bo disproved by
the fact that most people do not live
by any means well, either from tho
standpoint of morals or comfort.
If wo Bay to lead useful lives the
answer Is just as incomplete because
more are useless than useful, if we
Uiko tho thousands of millions on
the globe. We must consider them
all If we speak of tho human race
for who are we to call ourselves the
chosen race. If there was a chosen
race it was Israel and as they have
rejected the founder of ourdomlnaut
modern religious civilization, we
cannot admit that there is any
longer any chosen nice. So what
we live for brings up the whole con
troversy of tbo existence of the
entire human race.
As wo cannot well agree that we
live for any reasonable fJnltecnd the
purpose of our creation as a race
must Involve an Infinite purpose.
We are more than the animal. But
how do you prove this ? Because
we progress. We pass beyond in
stinct. Wo do not stop with the
beaver at the erection of mud huts.
We arise to tho noblest conceptions
of architectual art and as the Greeks
built the Parthenon, whoso ruins
oven the earth is proud to bear, we
build each man's cottage from an
artintlo point of view. We are
inoro than the animal because we
do not keep slaves as the nut, or
support drones like the honey bee.
We abolish slavery for moral con
siderations and declare all men free
before the face of the sun aud wo in
America cry In tho homerio voice
of the Inspired Walt Whitman to nil
the oppressed, down-trodden aud
outcasts of the world "until iho
sun excludes you from his rays, I
will not exclude you from my sym
pathy." So we are infinitely higher bo.
Iurs than the animals, We are ca
publu of progress. Wo strive towar3
higher ideals. We prefer the good
to the bad as a race aud in the long
ruu. While but tho few attain to
the Ideals of morality and upright
living und make the golden rule
their own life law, tho tendency of
the imperfect many Is .still upward
uud forwaid. Tho race goes on. It
pur.Miea a divine impulse. It will
not rest with tho merely good. It
mufat seek the ultimate best as the
magnet geeks the pole. What shall
we call this tendency to the better?
Is It not the '.evidence of the divine
itself manifesting itself in a weak
and erring human race? Are wo
not face to face with what wo llye
for, when we recognize this great
truth that wo ure above tho beasts
of the field? Is there not in each
human being a smouldering spark
of Unit nobility and divinity which
has through all the ages forced man"
kind onward and upward to
triumph over evil, vice and tiie
mere beast or animal nature!
The new education that begins
with the kindergarten and ends
with the highest christian philos
ophy recognizes tho divine principle!
for the development of which and
tho working out of which within
ourselves we are upon earth. If
that Is not what wo live for what iu
it? Our Saturday night has been a
valuable one If we can como any
uearor to this problem, what do we
llvo for. We all live to die but wo
live for something more than that.
We llvo for more than merely to
have lived and died.
CKOWDKD INSTITUTIONS,
The rapid growth of tho popula
tion of tho state and constantly in
creasing stream of Immigration
from the eastern states und Cauuda
renders tho condition of nearly all
Oregou Btate Institutions qultoovur
crowded. The otato prisou lias now
4Q0 convicts aud at present ratio of
increuso tho next legislature will
have to provide for from 000 to 700
beforo the next biennial period ex
pires. An additional wing' of at
least one half the present size of tho
prison will have to be built, unci a
hospital has utmost beoomo a crimi
nal necessity.
At the asylum for tho insane tho
conditions are much worw), as It Is
doubtful if tbo wards of Blank well's
Island are any more crowded than
tlioy are in the Institution at Salem.
The asylum hero is well equipped
with lands and tho cottages on tho
farms accommodate tamo to attord
relief. But In winter and bad
weather the state of affairs at the
asylum will border on the terrible.
With the present ratio of lucreose
from GOO two year ago to 762 yeotor
terdoy there will be needed almost
another new asylum before tho eud
of the next biennial term.
Tbo state is almost forced to the
necessity of orecting before tho leg
islature meets aDbthor reform school,
as the present ono has been filled to
overflowing for nearly a month.
The cheap plea of economy dictated
the erection of a building for fifty
boys and it should have been built
for two hundred to begin with. Tho
principle that our prisons shall be
reformatory rather than punitive is
nowhero so well Illustrated as in tho
excellent workings of tho reform
school aud it must be enlarged.
The same review could be extended
to other institutions, but it Would
only arouse the usual ory agalnbt
Salem that Is raised Whenever state
Institutions are mentioued, But we
dare Bay no rational man will oppose
a cotnprehoustve aud liberal policy
of caring for tho unfortunates of
the asylum and the cllmuto is as
salubiiousat Salem as anywhere In
the state. Thero Is tho further fact
that tho constitution fixes tho capi
tal as tho place for theso Institutions.
It will be well for persons intend
Ing to become legislators to look
into this matter, whether the state
is not better served by having them
together at the Beat of government,
where the state officials in chatgn
and tho legislature itself can easily
and frequently visit them and ob
serve their working, and whereby
log-rolling and corruption always
practiced when tho state institutions
are scattered in dlflerent parts of
the state id "htlrely obviated. We
believe it will bear investigation und
the result will not bo unfavorable to
the present system.
ECONOMY AND PROQKESS.
No factor will advance tho pros
pect of a now charter enlarging the
boundary of Salem so much as an
econbmibal and progressive city ad
ministration. Unless it Is estab
lished (1) that mouey raised by the
city tax6s will not bo wastefully
employed; and (2) that the city gov
ernment is sincerely devoted to the
progress and upbuilding of tho city,
tho suburban portions that really
ought to be in the city proper will
resist being brought in as they
should bo If assured of those safe
guards. Tho Big Four should not
long stand alono on this proposition.
And indications aro that they will
not.
BTATE TAX BOARD CASK.
A case Is pending for trial in Un
ion county that will test tho state
board of equalization law. It is
brought on a writ of review before
Judge Fee, of tho circuit court, to be
ucard-probably at the-' May terra.
That will bring it beforo the su
preme court at tho June term and
an early decision may be awaited,
as the Oregou supremo court is well
up with its work and usually acts
promptly upon important mattern.
The decision will bo awaited with
great Interest, as thero was a strug
gle over tho levy made upon tho
work of tho state board aud Mult
nomah and several other counties
have refused to pay their taxes at
that levy.

ABSOLUTELY PURE
A MOTHER'S ANXIETY.
lleartrcndlng Ausentmindedness Took
Away the Pleasure of a Visit.
An up town woman accepted an
invitation for ono night for herself
and husband to dino and sleep at tho
houso of a friend in Morristown.
That would boa simple enough af
fair to many persons, but to tho
woman in question it was an elab
orate transaction, because sho never
left her children overnight. How
ever, after getting her husband's sis
tor to come up from Staton Island to
stay, and making hor hrothor, who
lived with hor, promiso he would
spond tho evening at homo in case
any omorgoncy should arise needing
a man's assistance, the overdovoted
mother felt a certain Bense of security
for the brief absence
It was a consolation, too, to recall
as sho rodo down town about 2
o'clock that tho nurso hnd been with
hor for four years, and tho cook and
hoisBomaid were tried and faithful
servants as well. Still this did not
provent hor mooting hor husband
withatorrontof suggestive anxieties,
and tho trip to tho ferry was inter
larded with f roquont outbursts of ex
aggerated maternal fears.
They wore in midstream, though,
beforo tho tragedy came. Mrs. A.
had boon Bitting wrapped in deep
thought for sovorai seconds when
suddenly hor faco took on on expres
sion of agony, and clutching hor hus
band's arm sho exclaimed, "Oh,
Frank!" in tones of such real distress
that hor husband thought Bhowos
about to faint.
"What is it?" ho asked, greatly
alarmed.
"Oh, I left tho bathroom window
open," she gasped, "and Harold some
times Btrays in there, and tho bar is
off, you know. I thought it would
not matter till BUimnor, for tho win
dow is never open save under my
supervision. "
"Why is it open today, then!" tho
half angry, half anxious father inquired.
"I wanted to air tho halls well be
foro I loft I'm always so afraid of
sewer gas, and Jeseio might forget it
Oh, dearllmust go back at once,"
and tho distractod woman started for
tho rear of tho boat.
Her husband impatiently detained
her,
"You can't swim back," ho said
grimly. "There's no use in your
going back anyway. When wo got
across we'll sond a dispatch to Jessie."
"But if sho shouldn't got it," wailed
the mother, who by this timo Baw tho
mangled form of her four-year-old
strotclicd on tho flags beneath tho
bathroom window, "hadn't wo bet
tor send a messongor, and you could
pay him extra to mako him fly?"
Mr. A. thought this might bo a
difficult and expensive result to ob
tain, and porfluodod his wifo that
electricity would bo hotter. At tho
telegraph station her doubts aroso
again and considerable time was con
sumed discussing tho efficiency 6f
each method. Finally a "rushed"
dispatch was sent, Mrs. A. writing
it, and finding a degroo of relief in
underscoring some of tho werds:
Ho we to shut tho bathroom window at onte.
Answer Morristown.
By tliis timo tho train thoy started
for had gono, and a half hour's wait
was choorfully occupied by Mrs. A.
in felicitating herself that Bhohtjd
left tho family physician's telephone
call with hor sister-in-law Jesslo aQd
also with tho nurso. Thoy had bare
ly reached thoir rooms after grocting
thoir hobtess, whon a servant brought
up a dispatch. Mr, A. toro tho on
velopo and mastered its contents.

Beattlk, Wash., April 23. L.5
Kostroucb, who has been confined!
In prison for a week charged wlthg
the murder of William lUdloff fettf
mado a confession that Badloff Isf
alive. He had $55,000 Insurance on A
his life, and ltvled unhappily wlth?i
his wife. He and the prisoner dogg
up a corpso out of Greenwood!
cemetery, dressed it in Badloff'
clothes and set the bouse on fire In 1
order to create tbe impression thati
Badloff was burned to death. Rad-f
lotl left for San Francteoo by way of
Portland. It wes by reaaon of.the
miscarriage of a letter written by
Badloff, after his departure, to Ko
trouch that the former's plane were
learned. The letter was written lo
cypher, which correctly translated
reads: "Direct In care of tho New I
Atlantio hotel. Ban Francisco."
This letter was mailed on the train i
aAmAntlinrn Itnfnrnnit AohfVAtt sOifw
oumotmoig uuvncuu vxvguii vvj ;
Or,, and San Francisco. It conveys i
the information that Badloff had, In !
a measure, changed his plans after
leaving Seattle Kostroucb'a la-
Junction to him was to get off and j
remain at Oregon City until bo
(Badloff) heard from him, further
by no means for Badloff to write
first. Bodloff, however, It appears !
to have decided to go direct to Ban
Francisco. However, it seems to
have been his desire to but a greater .
distance between himself and the
eoono of his crime. Upon these
developements the police have pre
sumably been working for some
days past. The wires have been kept
hot, messages being sent into
all parts of the country giving an
accurate description of Badloff,
Meanwhile Mrs. Badlofi baa been
deporting herself as becomes a wid
owed woman weighed down with
grief at tbe death of her husband.
There may be a scene In Bonney &
Stewart's morguo when the discon
solate woman Is led Into the pres
ence of the bones of another aoan,
Kostrouoh was put to the test Thurs
day. He went to the cemetery un
der the eyes of the police and picked
out tho grave from which tho body
was taken. The police think they
will capture Badloff in a few days.
THE INQUEST.

Tho latter then had his life Insured.
LaBt Friday they piled bark on a
mattress in tho house, saturated it
with coal oil, and dressed the body
in BadlofTs suit, Badloff crushed
