In the spirit of the blackest kind of black-republicanism, the Oregonian oi last, week We Inesday justilies the re fusal of Governor Durbin, of Indiana, to honor the requisition by the state of Kentucky for ex-Governor laylur, wno is a fugitive from justice, hehavingbeen implicated, with other republican poli ticians, in the murder of Goebel. The uiuiu uuul of the "groat daily's" ar gument is that the accused would not have a fair trial in Kentucky. Since ex Guveruor Taylor was honorably recog uiz.vl and cheered by the luto republi can national convention, does it seem aa though a democrat, accused of a po litical murder, would receive a fair trial in a republican state? Does not such a course Joad to anarchism? The Com moner appropriately comments : If the reasons presented by Governor Durbin are Bound, then it is perfectly safe lor a republican to kill any demo cratic executive and (lee to a republican Htat.i, and if democratic governors act upon the Baine principle, it is safe for a democrat to kill a republican official aud then lice to a democratic state. In other words, the position taken by' Governor Durbin, if accepted as a piecedeut, in vites a reign of lawlessness, and ought to alarm the friends of law and order, regimllessof political affiliations. In hi.i "History of the Precious Met als," Alexander Del Mar, who never makes a statement unless he is positive he has the facts, says: "From a, care-full-.' guarded report of. the chamber of mines (a British organization) for 189(3, is leathered evidence to show that 'the Transvaal mines (mostly owned by Brit ish capitalists) havo been worked from first to last by unlives who were en trapped and forced into them against their wlil ; that thoy were bought from contractors at eo much per man, bound, strapped, made drunk with rotten liquor, aud thrust nuked into pits which avarice has dug and hypoericy has covered over.' Mr, 1V1 Mar contends that the precious metals cost more to produce than thoy are worth, lie shows that in the Transvaal mines, (or instance, 11 e salary of the free miner average only lfl.51 per diem, concluding that 'it is quite evident that without forced labor, without slavery, and without working the mill on the Sabbath, the industry c.'uUl not havebeen made to pay .' " Wis are so accuttnnod to the compass that wo forgot what a wonderful thing it is and how little we know of it. The greatest scientist today knows scarcely more about why the compass acts as it doeB thau did th el first man who used it "in the early dusk and dawn of time." We have discovered that a magnetized piece of steel, iwung on a pivot, will, as n rule, point in a certain direction. Why it does so is not known for certain, and perhaps never will be, though any number of ingenious apd learned theo ries have been advanced. In some parts of the world tho compass points due north, and in others it points to the east or 'to the west of north. And in son e parts it will not act at all. At it place called Kotchetowka, in Russia, Profes- sor Leyst, of Moscow, found that the needle pointed downward, juet as it does at the magnetic pole. And yet there is no iron within 600 feet of the surface of the earth at that place. " The whole sub ject of magnetism and electricity is full of miracles and mysteries According to Prof. W.B. Scott, of Princeton, horses in Western America began in the form of animal ''harrliiT arger than domestic cats, the remains of which are to beound in the Wasatch beds of Eocene time. Latemn, in the form of the mesohippus, these animals attained thestatu're of sheep.and showed considerable advances" In organization. In time the' protohippus was developed, and it not only attained a greater size, but had a skeleton "so likethat of a horse as to require a careful examination to note the differences." ; The change from the protohippus to the existing equus occurred early in the Pliocene. Yet "the true horse in the restricted sense of the term (species Equus cabal lus) was not developed in North Ameri ca, and appears never to have readied , this : continent ' until brought here by the Euro pean settlers. For reasons which can hardly .be even conjectured the horse disappeared entirely from the Western hemisphere before the discoveries of Columbus, and continued to' exist only in Eurasia and Africa." , ' - r, EdwiK Markham, the California poet, has investigated the squalid poverty in the sweatshop district of New York. He says, in summing up his conclusions from what he saw r "In these last days society is confronted by two gigantic evils the trust and the sweatshon. These are typi ial of all the rest. They are the twq giants destroying the indus trial life of "the republic. One stands for congested capital j the other for ema ciated poverty, They are the reductio ad absurdum othe competitive system. They spring from a failure to justly dis tribute the products of labor. They both show the power of co-operative principle. They are thejmoderq Titans who are shaking the public safety- so thateverywhere the voices are begin ning to cry: 'Let us consider the new duties of new occasions let us build the New Republic.'" Tub Customs Bureau is collecting revenue in the Philippines on the theory that they are foreign territory; the In ternal Revenue Bureau is collecting in ternal revenue there on the theory that they are domestic territory. And each charges .the other with inconsistency with the law. They are mistaken. As Congressman Grosvenor long ago frankly pointed out, we are in the Philippines to get out of them "all there is in it." These two revenue bureaus are each in its own way carrying out the exalted policy thus laid down. It having been settled that 'he Filipinos have no rights which we are bound to respect, "all that's his'n 'sour'n." : Tub Farmers' Advocate, a Farmers' Alliance weekly, established in 1889, published at Topeka, Kansas, has been summarily excluded from the mails by Third Assistant rostmaster-General Madden. The paper had received no previous warning that it would be an object of vengeance of the capitalist third assistant of that supposed-to-be servant of the poople, our postmaster- general. TI e e U more freedom in Canada than in this . 'home of the free," in a Pickwickian sense, 'and it is thither that the newspapers nracticallv sun- pressed here, will move. Tins Filipinos havo lnld a convention in Manila, representing a constituency of 330,000. It asked that the United States establish a territorial government n the Philippine-, give the islands a representation in the lower house of con gress and two delegated in the senate, and authorize the boal government to Usue lOO,Od0,O0J3p..T cent bonds to run 50 years, to cover the ruin wrought by the war with the United States. These Filipino "rebels" seem more capable of self-government than Eng land was in the time of Henry the Sec ond. ruoi'Kssoit SiiALuu, of Harvard, is of the opinion that within 23 years tho yield of gold from the vein or lodes in which it is associated with other metals, will alone amount to $500,000,000 per annum. The output from gravel depos its and from such as the Rand in South Africa, whith was horizontally formed beneath the sea.will add a vast sum to the annual gold production. Prof. tihaler is of the opinion that gold will become so cheap that mining operations will no longtr pay. Rkaittifux financial system is that of our government, says the Pitssburg, Pa., Democrat. It taxes the people needlessly to get au idle surplus into the treasury, and then to get it out again pays away their money at the rate of of 140 in re demption of bonds issued six years ago at 104'e." And the paper might have added that $11000,000 of this "idle surplus" is deposited in the national banks, "on which the banks do not pay a penny of interest, and which la Inaned to their customeis at 6 per cent. The people are taxed to create a banking capital. An official of the B. A 0. railroad com- pany recently told a reporter of the Newark, N. J . , Advocate that a carload of insane soldiers from the Philippines had been passing through Newark for the insane hospital at Washington, D. 0., regularly every two weeks for some time past. - - Thb Russian government announces that it has practically completed the Moscow, Vladivostock, Manchuria rail road, 5542 miles in length and costing $390,000,000. The British government has also completed the laying of 15,003 nautical miles of cable, bringing Great Britain in electrical communication with its most distant' colonies. Government officials are exerting themselves to prevent the shipment of .munitions of war from San Francisco to South American ports, fearing they are to be used in the Culombo-Veneztialan trouble. American mules, however, continue to go from United States ports to agents of John Bull in South Africa. The brightest beam of hope for the democrats that has come from the elec tion is Congressman Grosvenor's declar ation that "the returns mean thit the protective tariff is no more to be revised or modified than the Ten Command ments." Most appropriately, Prof. Smith.of Rockefeller's Chicago Kerosene Univer sity, expresses the opinion that "trusts are monarchies, unlimited and uncon stitutional monarchies." One honest professor at least. John Morley, pointing to the fact that the British taxpayer's load has been increased by $160,000,000 a year during the last ten years, declares there is "real danger ahead of the country." Tub British now demand "uncon ditional surrender" Xrom the Boers. -As death Beems as desirable as submission on such terms, they will struggle on to the bitter end. . . Mrs. Orrin W. Potter, of Chicago, given up as incurable from cancer, has been pronounced cured by three expos ures a week for two months to the X ray. v. . Brain-Food Nonsense. Another ridiculous food fad has been branded by the mot competent authori ties. They have dispelled the silly no tion that one kind of food is needed for bopee.

I The dial of the punch ing machine won't answer that question. Strength depends on nutrition, when the stomach and other organs of digestion and nutrition are diseased, the body fails to receive its full supply of nourishment and hence grows weak. That is why no man is stronger than his stomach. Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery cures diseases of the stomach and the allied organs of digestion and nutrition. The fooa eaten is then perfectly digested and assimilated and the body is made strong in the only possible way by nu trition. "I was troubled with indigestion for about two years," writes Wo. Bowker, Esq., of Juliaetta, Latah Co., Idaho. "I tried different doctors and remedies but to no avail, until 1 wrote to yoi and you told me what to do. I suffered with i pain in my stomach and left side and thought that Itwouldjjill me. Now I am glad to write this and let youknow that I am all right. I can do my work now without pain and I don't have tnat tirca leenng that I used to have, five bot tles of Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery and two vials of his ' Pleasant Pellets' cured me.B , : Dr.' Pierce's Pleasant Pellets stimulate the liver.
