A youthful graduate of the Atrricu!
: tural College at Corvallis and his bride
were louring in the East. When visit-
in; a town in Michigan, they passed an
- (turtle house which had a lower, making
it look a little like a chinch . "I wor.--ler
what cnurcli that u," she ii quired.
He replied, after reading Ihe sin, "De
luge, No. 3," "I mess it must he the
Third Baptist."
It is reported that there is much ill-ner-s
among the Boer prisoners brought
to Bermuda. 1! th s is true it is unfor
tnnale that tliere men from high alti
tudes are t.) I.e cluHely conlined at sea

Company is the corporate name under
which it operates. And not content
with a monopoly of the homo market
by the fostering uid of atarifrdutj.it
has formed a combination with foreign
companies to contnl the entire salt
trade of the world.
Wis think the Chautauqiii in.iu.ign
tent ma le a m.s'ake when it let the
job of piloting in booklets ta Port

pends pa.tly on outside patronage its
main patronage, stockholders and the

Kcculiing for the Boer war, Arnold
White, an Epglish critic, has formtd
the conclusion that the inhabitants of

IsS.mih vfr'ci week by week the
British death roll lengthens. Week by
week Ihe army ivpoits no prorcis.
Week by wee' the disafft'ctiou among
'the. loyalists in Sviuih Africa grows. And
ejk by week, with a monotonous and
Baldening steadiness, the six and a
quarter millions are taken from the
yocket of the British tuxpiyer. In this
Untisli crisis we b.tvd apparently a
practical example of the old problem!
It an irrcsiatahl j force meets an immov

In the scientific langu;ige of the day,
Ihe electron has assumed an Important
flace. It is thus d. 'lined by Pr. Oliver
J, Lodge: An atom is ordinarily asso
ciated with a charge and tore is ' re
quired to separate the charge from the
atom, Tbe atonrc charge, when sep.
rated, is called an electron. In an
electrolyte i. e., a suMtnee decom
fisel by an electric current there is a
, fcoJily transfer of atom with their
charges; in a metallic conductor the
charges are handed on, as electrons from
atom to atom. In the discharge through
kighly rarefied gases the electric current
feui its most simple form, "for here
, theie ia a flow of electrons traveling by
themselves, of disembodied charges or
, electric ghosts." Electrons are the fast
est moving of all known terrestrial ob
jects, their speed being one-tenth that
flight, which la 186,300 miles per tec
ad.
J. PiEKPONT Morcia.V John D.
Koikefeller, or any of a half dozen men
tliat could be named, have mare real in
fluence in the govt rn merit than the sta'e
of Virginia, or than one half dozen
states, leaving out New Yorl?, bhio,
Pennsylvania and Illinois. And yet
these men derive their power lrom the
ownership and control of things that
are no more properly the subjects of
such ownership than the air, or the
water of our rinra. It is just" as irra
tional to permit two men to control the
fuel supply of (he country as it would
be to permit them to control the iT or
waler supply, at their own dictation.
Ex
Sknatob Foraker d dares in strident
tones of the "brave, heroic, gallant" ne
groes, that "as they have shared our la
bars and jv-rils bo must they share our
rewards," and until these era secured
"there must not bo any restoration of
tlie democratic party to power." Very
good ; the republicans have controlled
the state of Ohio absolutely for the last
ten years; now many negroes have they
rawarJed witli office? President c
Kinlcy has the appointing power. How
many of the "brave, heroic, gallant"
colored men of the iSuiiili has he a
mitted to th rewards of victory since he
was elected for a second lerm? N. Y.
IVu.ll.
A dktkkminkd effort will be made to
secure the passage by the next conaieas
of a law which will provide for some ef
fective method ol disclosing tbe actual
constituents of goods sold as woolen
gooJs. This is a thing which should
have been attended .to long ago. The
growing use of shoddy and cotton in
goods Bold aa genuine ad-wool has been
increasing at such a rate in the past ten
years as to veiy materially reduce the
amount of wool used. The fraud is one
which can be prevented in no ether way,
apparently, than be national supervis
ion. The manufacturers claim that cotton-woolen
mixed goods are bet er than
those inude wholly of wool. .If this is
so nobody will be hurt by a law which
will pievcnt Hie sale of mixed goods as
a 1-wool goods. It, is pretty certain, how
ever, thafctiie claim of the manuh-ciur-e
s o.' mixed goods is not, wholly true,
and that the fraud n jiires both grower,,
of wool and purchasers of mixed goods
sold as all-Hool goods Oregon Agri

Herald Prtpoxltion.
As we stile 1 in last isstia the b wrJ oi
county commissioners has proven itself
afraid of Porter and failed to do its duty
and aec -pt propos tion of the writer to
furnish ail the stationery and printing
for the county for $10)0 for o io year.
In our stalem nit published bofore thd
items mentioned had co-t the countv for
11 months $2-i22 8t. Now we n ive the
liuie.s for 12 months an I they arj as
follows":

The lust two items were not included
in oilier published statement bin. were
covered by hid of the Com ii r-ller ild.
The county would thus save over s.wo
thirds, or $2000, by ai cipting our bid of
$1000. Itas very evident that the
hoard did not wmtusto have
Ihe job, although John Lwellen was in
favor of it, mid the only excuse it had
was that each item idiould he' bid on
separately. After our hid had been
filed and opened they permitted Porter
to put in a hid in which lie atrree I to do
work "a cheap as tint furnished other
counties," ami was, in fact, no bid at
all, but it gitvrt t ie board a proiense for
laying the matter over and ordering bids
advertised for. Did we irot a"fair Bhake?"
Is there any use bidding on a proposi
tion that is tied up politically? The tax
pi vers are not taken into consideration
i t ail The matter stands thus: One
man with a pull holds ajclub overanother
with aspirations.

. Training j
Is indispensable to athletic
success. In training, much
fctress is laid upoii diet; care
ful attention to the quantity
and quality of the food eat
en, with regularity of meals.
That is the secret of strength for every
man. No man can be stronger than his
stomach. The careless and irregular
eating, of business men, causes disease
of the stomach and its allied organs of
digestion and nutrition. There can be
no sound health until these diseases are
cured.
Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery
cures diseases.of the stomach and other
organs of digestion and nutrition, and
enables the body to be built tip into vig
orous health by the assimilation of the
nutrition extracted from food.
"I was taken with the (rrippe, which resulted
in heart nnd stomach trouble," writes Mr. T. R.
Caudill, of Montland, Alleghany Co., N. C. I
was unable to do anything a Rood part of the
time. I wrote to Dr. Pierce about my condition,
having full confidence in his medicine. He ad
vised me to take his 'Golden Medical Discovery,'
which I did. Before I hHd finished the second
bottle I began to feel better. I have used nearly
six bottles. I feel thankful to God for the bene
fit I have received from Dr. Pierce's Golden Med
ical Discovery. I can highly recommend it to
all persons as a good and safe medicine."
