HE HAS W0N PRAISE
Leading Panama Newspaper's Opin
ion or Barrett.
OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash
ington. June IS. As a refutation of some
of the charges of maladministration that
have been made against John Barrett as
Minister to Panama, the Star and Herald,
the principal dally paper of Panama,
prints an editorial in Its issue of May 12,
strongly defending Mr. Barrett's entire
course as representative of this Govern
ment in the Isthmian republic. The fol
lowing is the article:
, Minister Barrett Has now been in Panama
a yar, excepting tor a brief official trip
1'onie 4a?t October. II has remained fallh
jully at till post during the most trying
political and isanltary condition, declining
twice to go on leave of absence, once when
politics were most unsettled and again when
yr lion- fever was mere active than usual. As
a result his own health is suffering a Uttls
now, but it Is hoped that his visit home and
the cliange to the high altitude and bracing
climate of Bogota will prove beneficial.
no Minister could have labored harder and
more conscientiously than Mr. Barrett for the
J"Int good of Panama and the United States.
He has had the complete confidence of Presi
dent Amador and his advisers ever Mncc he
irat arrived and he has made himself liked
by the people of Panama, regardless of
pn'iilcat association, because f his uniform
courtesy and fairness. Coming here flrst at
the time when there were grave difficulties
between the Panama government and the
i "anal Commission In regard to treaty stipu
lation, he at once quieted public feeling by
liif. tactful address to the President and his
oni-id-rate treatment of the arguments ad
anoed by the Panama government.
Acted as Peacemaker.
Theic In little doubt that there would have
bstn serious misunderstanding): between the
two Governments lan summer if he had not
pour-d oil on the troubled waters. Although
th- American newspapers gave took of the
en tilt i the Taft agreement to others It is
well known here that the suceesc of the
negotiations was In no small measure da to
Mr. Barrett's patient and caieful efforts be
fore the Secretary of War arrived. ,
The Minister has always tried to foster the
plrlt of Independence and self-reliance In
the Tanama government and during such a
tilsis as disbanding the army he firmly re
sisted all demands for interference of the
Marines at Empire or the naval forces in
Tanama Bay. beHevlng that the difficulties
could be adjusted by the Panama govern
ment backed simply by the moral Influence
of the legation. In this way he prevented
the cry of the "Big Stick" and Increased the
prestige of Panama as a nation.
In the Panama-Costa Klmn boundary dis
pute, perhaps the most Important outside
question Involving this government, the
plenipotentiaries of both countries thanked
him for his Impartial advice and friendly
assistance In reaching a atlsfectry solution
or a difficult problem.
In Harmony With Commission.
in all the relations of Panama and the
S"ne he has taken Into consideration the
rights of Panama as well as guarding those
of the fnlted States. In this way was prob
abl laid the foundation for the stories
printed In the States that there was lack of
harmony between the Minister and the Com
mission. We can state with authority that
there was no friction, but that Mr Rsrrett
differed frankly with the Commission as to !
some matters of procedure in dealing with
the Panama KOemment. His relations, how. j
r. with General Davis and Engineer Wal
lare -nere very cordial and they co-operated I
In thorough harmony. He recommended the. I
union of the positions of Minister and Gov- j
ernor in the person of the Governor because
he believed It would be for the best In- j
terests of both countries, avoiding red tape, j
delay and misunderstandings, it is to the
Minister's credit that he unselfishly Initiated
a change that .would remove him from a I
nigh position with no provision for himself.
This suggestion of combining these offices
has also laid Minister Barrett open to much
unjust criticism in the American newspapers.
Mhlch. forgetting that he first advised and
has since supported the change, have re
peatedly strongly declared that the plan was
adopted t" get rid of him as Minister. He
lias also been- crltlotsed by a section of his
hme press which seem to have confused hta
administration with that of the old Commis
sion although they were entirely apart and
all his acts "have, been approved by both
governments. He has even been made the
xtotim of foolish and false reports about
trouble with the Panama government .and
difficulties with his own superiors. bHt these
have been emphatically depid by the au
thorities here and 'In Washington.
Promotion Shows Approval.
The best evidence that Mr. Barrett has
dna we.ll in Panama Is the decision of
Tresldent ROoeevelt toend him to Colombia
at a time when important and delicate nego
tiations are awaiting him. Upon these win
largely result the establishment of perma
nent friendly relations between the Valted
Mates (Colombia and Panama, not-to men
tion the general offect on South Amelias,
whloh Is closely watching the outcome of
h .situation Jn order to draw conclusions as
to the policy of the United States towards
Itln fountrits. VTheAlatesf rrports from
"a-siMbiten 'r that after Mr. Barrett baa
spent some, months in Colombia he will be
promoted to be Ambassador to Brazil.
Aside from his official duties, Mr. Barrett
has taken much Interest In the social affairs
of the community and In the welfare of the
large number of Canal empioyes. He started
the movement for the opening of the Tonng
Men's' Christian Association on the Isthmus,
for wiilrh an appropriation by the Commis
sion of $50,000 for buildings has been recom
mended by Governor Davis. He has actively
supported both- the Protestant and Catholic
religious services at A neon. The Legation
has been the scene of numerous receptions
and dinners and a hearty welcome has
awaited alt Americans or Panamans who
have called upon him.
President Amador entertains the Minister
at a farewell "breakfast today, and In the
evening a reception wilt be given him at
Aneon. The night before last he was the
guest at dinner of Cental-General Lee and
Judge Gudger. He will probably leave
Panama for Colon on Saturday on a special
train starting acoordng to the pour of the
steamer's departure.

Presently he found the boy and brought

ST. PETERSBURG. June 18. Emperor
Nicholas received the Zcrnstvo deputation
this morning.
The reception took place at noon In the
Alexander Palace at Petcrhof. Prince
Troubetaky. president of the Zcrnstvo
Congress, of the Moscow government. In
behalf of the Moscow delegation, ad
dressed the Erapcrer in a long speech. In
which he described the serious Internal
conditions which have caused the Zemst
vos to approach His Majesty directly.
The Emperor evidently was much Im
pressed. M. FedcorofX, .representing the
St. Petersburg delegation, also spoke. His
Majesty replied:
I am happy to have heard you. I have no
doubt you are guided by an ardent senti
ment of love for the fatherland In address
ing me directly.
I have been grieved In my whole soul, with
all my people, at the calamities which the
war has brought upon Russia and at all
those which may sUII be feared, as well es
at our Internal disturbances.
Dissipate your doubts, My will Is sover
eign, and it Is my unalterable will that the
admission of elected representatives to the
works of state shall be regularly accom
plished. I watch daily and devote myself to this
work. Tou may announce that to all your
friends In country and town.
I am firmly convinced that Russia will
emerge strengthened from the -trials she !
now enduring and that there wilt be estab
lished soon, as formerly, a union between
the Emperor and all Russia, a communion
between myself and the men of Russian soil.
This union and communion mast serve as ,a
basts for the original principles of Russia.
I have faith In your desire to help me in
this task.
Upon completing his remarks, the Em
peror graciously greeted the individual
members of the delegation, shaking hands
with them and having a few cordial words
for each.
The fact that the Emperor not only re
ceived the bold, plain-spoken address
without so much as an Indication of his
disapprobation, but expressed full, sympa
thy with the efforts to ameliorate the de
plorable state of affairs depicted therein
and In the mart direct and explicit fash
ion renewed his promise to summon the
representatives of the people, made the
deepest impression on the delegation.
The delegation is now preparing an ac
count of the audience, which will be pre
sented to the St. Petersburg Douma to
morrow, and which in accordance with
their instructions as well as the imperial
wish will be communicated to all the
Zerostvos and Mayors of Russia.
The address adopted by the all-Russian
Zcrnstvo and Municipal Congress assem
bled at Moscow was taken to St. Peters
burg for presentation to the Emperor by
a deputation headed by Count Haydeit
and M. Shlpoff. former president of the
Moscow Zemstvo. but It does not appear
from the cable dispatch that the docu
ment was handed to Hiri Majesty, al
though doubtless Prince Troubctsky and
M. Fcdoroff In their speeches communi
cated the substance of the address to the
Emperor.
The document in Its original form bids
fair to become historic. The customary
phrases of respect at the opening and
closing were omitted, and It was other
wise unceremonious, employing the direct
personal pronoun.
The address arraigned the bureaucracy
and reminded the Emperor that his pledge
to convoke a national assembly was slow
of fulfillment. It said the country was on
the verge of civil war. and even ventured
to criticize a royal measure, contrasting
the increase of the police power by the
ukase of June 4 with the weakening of the
administrative process which the country
had been led to expect. The address
urged the summoning of .a national as
sembly, that the war might become na
tional or cease, and concluded with a sol
emn reminder of the sovereign's duty to
God and to the Fatherland, and a prayer
for action before it was too late. .

WORK OF HUMANE SOCIETY
Funds Are Needed to Carry On the
Good YVork;.
TORTLAND. Or.. June (To the Edi
tor.) Queen Victoria has said no civilization
Is complete which does not Include within
Its sphere of charity and mercy the dumb
and defenseless of Cod's creatures.
The work of humane societies sine the
founding of the first organization In New
York by Henry Berrb, some 40 years ago.
has now extended Its kindly Influence over
every state and territory of the American
domain. Its educational phase In connec
tion with our public schools has changed the
thought of children regarding dumb 'crea
tures In a marked degree. Once It was
thoufht that animals had no rights that
man was bound to respect. We now bava
ample laws which punish the offender for
acts of cruelty to mankind and the defense
less animal. Yet the best results have been
gained through humane education In our
public schools. More than -t years ago the
Oregon Humane Society introduced a sys
tem of prize-giving as an Incentive to pu
pils for the best compositions on kindness to
animals. This work has continued during
these many years up to the present time.
Many teachers now employed stale that they
were prize-winners while pupils, and hare
become deeply Impressed with the Immeas
urable benefit to children arising from hu
mane education.
In London. England, where this system of
education forms a part of the curriculum in
the public schools, of more than 7000 chil
dren during a given period having been
taught the great law of kindness, not one
so far as known had been arrested for any
criminal offense.
The Oregon Humane Society was founded
more than 30 years ago. and has been main
tained at a tithing of expense to the public
Its corresponding secretary having served
during this period without compensation.
The society has fostered humane education
In the public schools, caused laws to be en
acted lo protect children and all living
creatures from cruel treatment, rescued
many children from brutal parents or guar
dians, caused the curfew ordinance to bo
enacted. Introduced the steam dummy in ex
cavating, thereby preventing dally occur
rences of cruelty, stopped the knocking of
dogs brains out with clubs at the city
pound, caused better coops to be used In
the transportation of poultry, and there Is
ctlll room for Improvement: bav brought
to an end. humanely, the miserable lives of
more than 1800 horses and other animals,
relieved from suffering through galled backs,
shoulders end lameness more than 5000
horses and mules, caused better treatment to
animals on mall routes, settled disputes In
families, provided food and furniture for
the destitute, given advice and council to
the erring, and for all this labor of love our
society during 33 years of Its existence has
received the munificent sum of lees than
$3500.
Other Institutions have been the recipients
of large bequests from tho wealthy estates
of departed citizens. One local Institution
received an appropriation from the state
during the Legislative session of 1803
amounting to SCOOO. 'and the session of 1005
granted the same society an additional 38000.
Now, there appears to be something radi
cally wrong in the disbursements of state
and private funds. Is not the Oregon Hu
mane Society quite as deserving as other
charitable Institutions, nearly all or which
have already large endowments sufficient for
their support? Therefore. In view of these
facts, and with the rapid growth of our city
demanding the service of thousands of horses
and mules, the labors- of the society have
multiplied to the extent that the entire time
of the corresponding secretary Is now re
quired to meet the dally complaints brought
to his office. Portland cannot afford to
have It said that a humane society of more
than 30 years growth was compelled to dis
continue its worjc for lack of funds. The
Oregonlan says editorially: "There Is In
Portland a remarkably widespread and
healthy sentiment on the question of -kindness
to dumb creatures. It Is universally
exerted, and serves to protect our burden
bearing servants no less than the feathered
songsters. This sentiment Is not of new
growth."
For more than a generation the Oregon
Humane Society, working effectively through
tfie public schools' In a variety of ways, in
stilled Into the minds and hearts of Portland
youth the doctrine that cruelty to animals
Is a sin; that they must refrain from It.
and whenever In their power restrain others
from committing it. These boys and girls
are now men and women, all participants in
the cltya activities, and recruits are added
to their number every day."
Therefore, to curtail the functions of the
society, or to arrest Us growing strength,
would cause disastrous results, for. though
Instances of wanton cruelty are not so fre
quently witnessed as heretofore. It is ob
vious that were It not for the check of this
society, the worst brutalities would appear,
and the ruffians who delight In torment to
dumb creatures would greatly multiply.
To continue the work ef this society, and
to extend It. Increased assistance la abso
lutely necessary, for without new members
and donors, an abridgment of operation will
be inevitable. Its activity. Impartiality and
success have induced the public to look to
this sbclety generally as the agent for the
suppression of cruelty throughout the state.

Colonel Staples Is accustomed to the use

That seemed to stagger the Colonel, for
he could not pay admission; that would
be against his principles.
"You folks." said he to his companion-',
"wait right here. I'm going to find Lewis

American woman has little to leans fros

Dr. Pierce, the specialist in women's dis

to the bouse and their household duties a
ttheir business confines them tar poorly ven

WOMEN WHO CHARM
HEALTH IS THE FIRST ESSEITUL
It Helps Women to Win and Hold
Men's Adralratloa, Respect and Lovs
m Woman's greatest jjift s the power to
inspire admiration, respect, and love.
There is a beauty in health which ia
more attractive to men than mere regu
larity of feature.
To be a successful wife, to retain the
loye and admiration of her husband,
should be a woman's constant study.
At the first indication of ill-health,
painful or irregular menstruation,
headache or baclache, secure Lydia E.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound and
begin its use.
Mrs. Chas. P. Brown, Vice-President
Mothers Club, 31 Cedar Terrace, Hot
Springs, Ark., writes:
Dear Mrs. PInkhAm:
" For nine years I dragged through a miser
able existence, suffering with inflammation
and falling of the womb, and worn out with
pain and weariness. I one day noticed a state
ment by a woman suffering as I was, but who
had been cured by Lydia E. Pinkham's Veg
etable Compound, and I determined to try it.
At the end of three months 1 was a different
woman. Every one remarked about it, and
my husband fell in love with me all over
again. Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound built up my entire system, cured tho
womb trouble, and I felt like a new woman.
I am sure it will make every sufferingwoman
strong, well and happy, as it has me.
Woman who are troubled with pain
ful or irregular menstruation, back
ache, bloating (or flatulence), leucor
rheca, falling, inflammation or ulcera
tion of the uterus, ovarian troubles
that "bearing-down" feeling, dizzi
ness, faintness, indigestion, or nervous
Erostration may be restored to perfect
ealth and strength by taking Lydia
E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.
