Johns, Ore ton. OffleUl Kwipipr of tb Cltj of St Jokni. Subscription priest $1.00 par year. It is n matter to be greatly do nlorod that St. Johns has no cemetery. The population of the city is increasing all the while, and as a natural conae- nuence more deaths are record cd from year to year. And there is no place within the city for our people to bury its dead. Therefore, the expense of a funeral is greater than it other wise would be, and the relatives and friends of the deceased have a greater distance to go to care for and visit the graves. It is extremely doubtful if there is a city of cciual population anv where within tho United States that docs not possess a burying ground. The need of such a place has been realized for number of years by our people, ana several oiiorts to secure a cemetery have been made by in dividuals at different times, but always fell through before they fully materialized. Many cities own and control burying grounds as a city institution. It would seem that St. Johns might adopt a like plan. If oilers of suitable ground for tho purpose were advertised for, it is believed Hint tracts would bo olTored at n rea sonablo price. It might bo stip ulatcd in the call for proposals that the city would not pay over a certain price for acreage, so that owners would know that an exorbitant price would bo futile to ask. A cemetery owned by tho city could bo made to pay all costs and bo sell supporting, it is beliovcd. Five or six acres would probably bo all that would bo needed. Tho matter is worthy of some consideration at least. Probably tho Smith nrou orty on Burlington street, winch the city recently acquired, might bo turned in as part payment. Much oncouragmont is given tho railroads in the recent do cision of tho Interstate Com merco commission graining a partial 5 por cent increase in rates. It shows that the ten dency of tho times is changing- that it is becoming recognized that big miBinoss must bo treat' ed with consideration - that while it must bo regulated, it must not bo persecuted unless wo ourselves aro willing to suffer also. Not knowing to what do grco regulation was to go- not knowing to what oxtent their revenues woro to bo cut. rail ways have retrenched, and then retrenched somo more. This gives them hopo for tho future. Public opinion is changing. If for no other reason than to pro tect it down nockotbook, tho public is becoming willing that tho railways shall mako a fair profit that tho railways shall bo allowed to cam money with which to pay for improvements that put monoy back into tho pockets from whenco it camo. With tho futuro looking brighter wo may well look for a gradual return to activity in railway building nnd development. In Oregon this moans much,--Cot- tngo Grovo Sentinel.

Uo you think your hours of ser vice aro too long, your wages too low, and your work too hard? Kindly ask your father in tho light of his experience what he thinks about it. Lot him toll you what tho hours of labor woro when ho was a boy tho meagro wages ho received, tho unsanitary stir foundings of tho shop, tho lack ot Holidays or oven naif hoii days, tho early call to duty and tho lato blowing of tho whistlo when evening came. Your lather knows about it, especially it no is nnt vo born. If ho camo from a foroign land within recent years, he may not recognize all tho wonderful changes in industrial conditions that have signalized tho pro gross of this country sinco tho terrible war between the States. Let your father tell you of tho frugal home of his boyhood days. tho meagre faro, the lack of luxuries, and tho absenco of summer vncations. Let him tell you how happy ho and your mother wero under conditions that to you would impel a spirit of revolt. Young man, tho world has moved. You are far better oil . a il -aw man your latner was. you aro enjoying shorter hours, bettor wages, more holidays, and your regular summer vacation. All the surroundings in your ollice, shop or factory aro much better than your lntnor had.

A rotrimcnt of soldiers, wel drilled and handsomely uniform ed. is an inspiring spectacle. but the other sulo of tho picture is less thrilling. Tho pathos of war is represented by tho moth- ors and wives at home. Tnoy aro not drilled, and they cannot get tho courage that comes from touching shoulders. Theirs is an individual battle, a tignt tor strength and pntienco to watch and wait. No wonder women hate war.

Boiling over a slow firo is tho happiest death a lobster can meet, so it has been determined at tho Jersoy marino biological t mi i station, ine experiments wero carried out by Joseph Sinol. a well known biologist, for tho Jersey Society for tho Preven tion of Cruelty to Animnls, whoso members associated tho nrova lent method of killing lobsters with medioval torture. Lob. stera, says Mr. Sinel, aro ox tremely difficult to kill. Pierc ing tho brain does not seem to cause tho lobster more than tern- Cornry annoyance, sinco his rain is a mere ganglion tho size of n hempseed. Ho has to be killed all over. To throw him into boiling water fails to do tho work olther mercifully or quickly, since ho struggles vio lently tD escape for about two minutes. Tho nleasantest wav to end a lobster's troubles. Mr. Sinol finds, is tho old fashioned way of placing him in cold water and bringing him ton boil. Girl of the mountains free, Strong as tho forest tree, Eyes like .the eagle's own, keen as a sword.
