Ninety one years ago Ivan Turgen leff, perhaps the greatest or Russian novelets and the father of nlhalism, in the land of the Great White Czar, was born In Oriel, Russia. He died in 1883, but Ills Political phylosophy has lived after him and is a thorn in the side of the mighty. The Turgenleff family was an old ' and Important one and the mother was a Lltvlnoff, a family with immense es tate and many serfs, and she was the heiress to all o ftbese. When the time came for Ivan to perfect his education as a Russian gentleman he went to the University of Moscow, St. Petersburg and Berlin, HI home education to prepare him for hi college life had been carried on with German ' and French tutors Trench is the court language of Ruwlj and Mine. Turgenleff allowed Russian to be spoken only In connection . with , the servant. .-.',; Through one of his serfs Ivan gained his first Insight Into Russian Utwiture und this serf often quoted and rad to him from a work of KhraskoT, a poet of the 18th century, who had rpe merit. This made a profound inorws elon on the young man. There wa another Influence fit tne life of Ivan that had been making on impression all through his youthful career. His mother presented otie of the sad examples of the ibuse of power and she was cruel to the last degree to her servants and the abso lute control that she had over thera allowed her to go to any extreme in the way of punishment that she .lesir . .ed, either for petty faults or gruve of fenses. -t ST.

During the past few week the Ob server has called the attention of its eaders to the skillful grafting of many of the alleged eye specialists who make a house to house canvas of the city and country and have had onr at tention called to not a few instances where unsuspecting victims have been grafted to the extent of many dollars. Fifty, dollars was the most exhorbitant price reported until this week a case was reported in the vicinity of Cove where a lady paid $95 for a common pair of glasses that could be purchased In any of the several places In this city from people who deal In optical goods for $5.00. When you come to stop and think about it there is nothing so very remarkable about it. If scores of people in this city have been grafted all the way from $10 to $25 It would be nothing surprising to find many who have practically been robbed of a much greater ram. The easy days of ....... --c, 4M W. ... lA tUU past In this county. The people are be ginlnng to find out several things re garding their former smooth practices. . One of the best possible signs of permanency is reflected in the real es tate sales, by far the greatest portion of the transfers are being made by our home people. The highest pricer ever paid for a sandrldge farm was made by one of our pioneer farmers. We refer to Mr. John Blockland, Vnen about three years ago he paid $75 an acre for a farm in the center of the valley. Since that time there have been quite a number of farms sold at this price. But if our membory does not betray ua this was the Initial purchase at this price. With ninety men in Jail and the city of Spokane confronted with a multi plicity of damage suits growing out of a . wholesale number of arrest Tor speaking on the streets, a serious con dition confronts that city.. She has taken a position ' Justified from 'her standpoint by the passage of an ordi nance prohibiting the addressing of a public gathering on the streets. Social istic leaders are flocking to Spokane and it will be surprising if bloodshed does not result before the matter is disposed of. ' ; ' Our merchant are beglnlng to think about the holidays. In fate a few are beginning to display their goods al eady. This has been a very prosperous year for thla city and county and there will undoubtedly be more money spent this season for holiday goods than for many seasons past DixgjiRU Eeeoturarad Cham. berlainV Celle Oolem And Diarrhoea Remedy.
