THE FUTURE IS NOT SO DARK.
The future is not so dark as we had
feared. Even such a pessimist as Max
Nordau sees light ahead.
Max, you know, maintains that Eden
existed before the first ice age. Na
ture was generous to Man. It set his
table for him and he wandered atthe
behest ot his own sweet fancy. He
didn't war with his brother, for there
was nothing to war about. TJien the
ice came, and man had to adjust him
self to his new surroundings. Other ani
mals lied elsewhere, or perished. "Man
alone remained, conquered the ice and
learned to master and thrive upon his
fellow men.
Nordau now foresees a second Eden.
It will be man made, and it will be
the development of technical progress.
The master minds of science will
make food plentiful. The distribution
will be cared for by mechanics. Sel
fishness will be eliminated by the en
lightened manhood of that day, the
parasites, the criminal, the depraved
and the incapable will go their ways
never to return, and the people of
earth will know a measure of happi
ness greater than the fondest hopes
have ever bred in human longing and
aspiration.
The prophecy of Nordau seems like
a figment of fancy, but homas A. Edi
son, Nicola Tesla and other deeply
learned scientists who are trained and
practical in habits of thought and
speech are also making predictions
foreshadowing a greater store of hap
piness for the race through a closer
and more intimate and brotherly re
lationship of man with his fellow man.
And all this is to be accomplished
through the natural processes of scien
tific evolution and not through the rev
olutionary and confiscatory methods
of Socialism.
The Easter styles will call for
smaller hats, and, larger bills, of
course. 1 ,

Signs of Reason Appearing
In Our School System
rHE public school system
no longer occupies a
place of minor impor
tance in the delibera
tions of legislative bodies, and the
chairmanship of a committee on
education now offers opportunities
for distinction and effective work
that are not excelled. Among
the larger developments' in educa
tion during the past year is the. beginning of a movement to
LENGTHEN THE SCHOOL TERM BY REDUCING THE
NUMBER OF HOLIDAYS.
In Rome in the time of the republic sixty-four days in every year
were devoted to public festivals recognized by law. The American re
public has mt reached such a number of holidays, but its SCHOOLS
SURPASSED IT LONG AGO.
The summer vacation, the Saturday holiday, short sessions or no
sessions on stormy days, teachers' institute, visiting days, sundry legal
holidays and days of special observance have so lessened the actual
school time that scarcely more than half the days in the year as a
rule are given to regular school work. .

Dead Men's Food In Yucatan.
From remote times the natives of
Yucatan' have been accustomed to
making offerings to the souls of the de
parted, particularly a certain, pie that
they call "food of the soul " The crust
must be of yellow corn, the interior
tender chicken and small pieces f
pork. These pies are wrapped in leaves
of the banana tree and baked under
ground between hot stones When
done, they are placed on the graves
or hung from trees close by Some
times, after leaving them there for an
hour or two. the living take home the
pies and enjoy them, saying that the
souls have already drawn from th-m
all the ethereal part of the substance.

COUNCILMAN BEARD
REPLIES TO CRITIC
Morning Enterprise:
To the Editor. Please allow me
space to answer as briefly as possible
a few slurring remarks in this morn
ing's edition of the "Oregon City Cour
ier," under, the flaring head-lines
"Have a New Deal." First the writer
says several people have asked the
Courier why it dodges. I think that
is a very pertinent question. Then. he
likens the whole "bunch" to a lot of
rotten apples, with virtually no choice.
There he makes this positive, and un
qualified statement:
"This scrap has now gotten to the
bad blood stage and is little less than
a Kentucky feud in bitterness.'' Again.
There are certain ones who gather
around the contestants and egg them
on. These fellows like to see the
scrap and would go a good way farther
to attend a rooster fight than a boos
ter meeting."
Now then, Mr. Courier, as an indi
vidual councilman, , I resent the fore
going statements. , As to being no bet
ter than a rotten apple I am "willing
to leave the settlement of that ques
tion with my constituents, and at
any time they petition me to quit the
job on account of not representing the
will of the people, I will ask for no
further Recall, but will step down and
out.
Then again, I deny. any bad blood
toward any man, Mayor G. B. Dimick
and his appointed officers included,
more especially anything of the Ken
tucky brand. Again, Mr. Courier, I
resent the accusation that my friends
and advisers if I have any are of
the brand that would rather attend
rooster- fights than booster meetfngs
and if the Courier, being better posted
in ways that are dark will kindly
give me a little inside information m
regard to their true character, I will
gladly give him the names of each and
every one who has advised me in this
matter, and further I will give him $5
a head for each one of those he proves
to me is a rooster fighter, as it would
be well worth that amount to me to
know with who I am associating.
Further, as regards the resignation
of the City Council (and the Mayor)
this, Mr. Courier, is not as great a
surprise to me as you may think, "as I
myself have advocated this for some
time. Thtre is only one point of dis
agreement between , us, that is if I
resign it will be to go before the peo
ple for vindication or otherwise. I
am a firm believer in "Vox Populi Vox
Dei" and I am doing as I am simply
because I believe in that principle, and
if the Courier or any other person
of influence can show me the will of
the people I will not need nor ask
further' advice, but will deliver the
goods. ' .
But, Mr. Courier, I will ask for bet
ter evidence than the implication con
veyed in the next to the last clause
of your "New Deal" that the City
Council vis working against Oregon
City. In conclusion will say that I
hope the Courier will take this as the
opening of a Kentucky feud.
Respectfully,
WILLIAM BEARD,
Councilman Third Ward.
