Newspaper Page Text' 1 & H lw TUB OTSW AGE, POBTIiAND. OREGON. tfrk.' ? :i i TOPICS OF THE TIMES. A hotel trust In the Intent "Front!" Another author of lovo nongs bns died in poverty. Why don't they wrlto coon songs and cltnnco the gout? Compulsory arbitration should here after be) the keynote of labor when It ceks by legislation a solution for the wage question. And now American made locomotives aro going to New Zealand. The Yun kco machinist Is nlmost justified In laying with Edmund DauteB, "Tho world Is mine!" It seems to havo becotno n custom of lato to talk about "doing a stunt" Wherein "stunt" Is nny Improvement on tho authorized and regularly or dained "stint" does not appear. Even If tho Patent Olllco Is overbur dened with "notions," Inventive genius languishes; eW somebody would win tho rich roward awaiting tho man who can build nn automobile that docs not look us If it needed a horse In front. A lovo affair In a 8emlnoIo Indian camp resulted In the death of four braves nnd the tlulcldo of the maiden. Twns ever thus. Contact with clvlll ration robs tho noble red man of his itolclsm and makes him sensitive us a woman. A I'ekln correspondent of tho Associ ated I'rcss says that a medal will bo struck to commemorate tho heroic de fense made by the besieged foreigners. Tho motto suggested for the medal Is that noble one, attributed by Plutarch to tho Greek lawgiver Lycurgus, equal ly applicable In wnr and -In peace, 'Men, not walls, mnko a city." 1 ' Oysters are usually recommended to convalescents as affording a digestible nddltlon to the necessarily limited diet ary, but they posschs another nnd spe cial advantage an n tonic and tissue builder, by reason of the largo propor tion of phosphorus which thoy contain. A chemist who recently analysed tho oysterM especially sought after by tho Parisians found that In a do7.cn Portu guese oysters thore was about two llftlis of a gram of phosphoric acid, and In a dozen French oysters a little less. Grocer J. II. Chambers, of Bclienec ,, tody, N. Y., In a letter competing for a J3tr.o for tho beat life story Illustrating V nnw In mivn imilll-V throws 111 With hU experience a few precepts. He says: To nnw money on a small Income begin by marrying the girl )ou love uud Unit loves you. He so honest nnd ludiiHtrlotii that your employers cannot do without you. Upend all jour npiire moments In the , society of your wife nnd family. Do not go uiiywheie that )ou would bo BNhniniMl to tnKe your wlfu to. Make your home no nttmctlvc (tint your children will hale to lie uwny. Study the wiiiiih of jour wife nml fam ily. These nrenll the law and the prophets on tho question of how to be healthy, wealthy and happy-, though married. Btatlstlcs on Insanity recently pub lished go to show thai mental health Is not Improving. Ilctwcci. 1HW) and 1800 the imputation of the United .States In creased two mid a half time, while the mentally mulcted, Including tho feeble minded, multiplied six time; In Illinois nlono In twenty years tho population Increased 51 per cent, while tliu lusauu Increased 75 per cent. Civilization nnd progrohs nro costly blessings. Tho demands of modern life aro growing more exacting ami more complex. That many break down under tho strain Is not surprising. It Is'thd merciless proc ts of natural selection. Tho II tt est survive, and In the end the nice Is I in proved bodily and mentally. Hut this does not comfort those who, falling, now, In other times and other condi tions might bo unproved and selected us the lltttest, , Italy has set an example of swift pun ishment toiupvnMl with mercy worthy of Imitation by tho most stable and In telligent governments of Europe. Hrescl, thu anarchist, assassinated King Humbert. Ope mouth later to a day Hrescl was found guilty, ufter a deliberate mid fair trial, uud was sen tenced to life liuprlsoumcut. Although Humbert wasa popular sovereign, there were no outbreaks at the tilal, no mobs Intervened to take tho assassin out of tho hands of Justice, and there wus nn entire absence of any hysterical dis turbance of the peace. No Anglo-Saxon court could havo proceeded with more dignity to an liupurtlal verdict The fact that tho people are apparently sat lulled with the verdict of life Imprison ment occasions surprise. Somehow Western thought has Ideutllled modern Italy with bloodthlrtttluess. Wo are uccustomed to think of the Italians as of their cousins, tho French, as a mer curial people, demanding life for life, glcti to demonstration nnd uprisings on the slightest provocation. The dig nity of Hresel's trial and tho Judicial temper of the people gives quo a new uud surprising conception of the ltal.au character. Marlon Harlaud lusUts that chivalry Is dead. Her proof Is found In tho con duct of men In tho street cars, She tlmls that fewer men glvo up their beats to women tluiu formerly. Taking up the men's side of the 'mutter, she says It makes no difference that women aro more and more engaging In tho work of men, Tho latter should remember Unit womau U tho weaker vessel, and humanity no less than gallantry de mands that men defer to her. To tho allegation that women forget the court esy of acknowledgment, sho says "that Is their nffalr." Hy comparison with men, says Hnrland, every woman is a child. "If tho child is Ill-mannered the man can afford to be magnani mous." While there are those who will claim that the magnanimity of men should receive graceful acknowledg ment from woman, tho whole mntter may bo resolved Into a sensible discrim ination. It Is asking too much of a tired miner to give up his seat to a so ciety belle. An elderly mnn Is under no obligation to surrender his sent to n healthy young schoolgirl. Circum stances must decide. Chivalry Is not dead In tho hearts of American men. In no country lu the world Is woman treated with such consideration nnd courtesy ns lu this country. And thin courtesy Is not simply a matter of cus tom. It springs from a genuine respect for tho weaker Bex. Heredity and tho mlcrobo theorj havo been getting some linnl knock! during tho past decade. The microbe Is still holding his own ns the primary disturbance lu certain clauses of hu man aliments, although the physicians have now reached a point In bacteriol ogy sufllclcntly advanced to enable them to confidently nsscrt that the ba cilli aro not responsible for every ills caso that (losh Is heir to. At the recent international medlcnu congress held lu Paris ono of the most renowned of medical authorities warned the younger members of the profession ngalnst the danger of ascribing every human ail ment to bnctcrlnl luilucncc. Hut "her edity" ns an excuse for all sorts of ab normal mental manifestations nnd moral delluqucnckM has been almost completely dislodged by scientists. The tlmo Is gone by when the drunkard can hide behind his Inebriated great-greatgrandfather. Heredity can no longer bo urged as a sulllclcut cause for tho moral degeneracy that leads a man to appropriate that which belongs to oth ers. Low-browed men may come from low-browed ancestors, but statistics tend to prove that under proper envi ronment and lulluences the low-browed youngster tuny bo developed Into a strong and most creditable member of society lu spite of his progenitors. In nn address before the national prison congress at Cleveland George Torrance, superintendent of the Illinois State lteformatory, plnced thu portion of crime that Is due to heredity at less than 10 per cent. He mnlntnlned what Is now tlio commonly accepted view of tho soclologlglsts nnd criminologists thnt crime Is dun to environment. It follows, therefore, that a great major ity of criminals cau bo saved If prop erly handled nnd placed under a proper environment. Snld Mr. Torrance: "I havo no hesitation In asserting that at least 85 per cent of all young men and boys who hnvo committed crimes, If taken charge of In time nnd subjected to proper treatment, will become good citizens. Ninety per cent of the young convicted of crimes would not become criminals with proper surroundings, proper companions and proper atten tion." Tli3 sooner tho nncleut notions about "heredity" are exploded the bet ter for society and tho state. The Idea that alcoholism or consumption among a man's ancestors predestines him to tho same fate Is most pernicious doc trine, and Is sometimes appalling lu Its consequences. It not only excuses crime but superinduces a condition of hopelessness thnt Is nil the more pit iable becnuso unfounded. Heredity bus hnd mu'ny centuries of moral derelic tion nnd inontnl despair to answer for. It Is tlmo that thu light of science was relieving It of Its burdens. The new science teiches thnt mnn Is largely re sponsible for what lie Is; thnt his moral mid meutnl shortcomings cannot b charged up against his progenitors. No Wonder.
