Is the Maryland legislature a
bill has been introduced making
the casting of ballots compulsory,
under penalty of a fine, to go to
the public Bchool fund. Sickness
and absence from the voter's legal
residence are the only excuses rec
ognized. This is in the line ol
practical measures for the pre
servation of municipal govern
ments from domination by the
corrupt and unintelligent elements
among voters. It is a recognized
fact that whenever those interested
in an honest administration of city
affairs have gone to the polls in a
body they have triumphed over
the boodlers, and from this the
conclusion is drawn that the rais
goverumeut of our cities is the di
rect result of the failure of a large
number of the more honorable
and intelligent class ot citizens to
cast their ballots. A man has no
risht to shirk his duty as a citizen.
It is one of his duties to pay taxes
on his property, and the law com
pels him to do it; it is one of his
duties to serve on the jury, and
the law takes him from his store
or office, regardless of his wishes,
and puts him in the jury box; it is
one of his duties to rear his child
ren and educate them to become
good and intelligent citizens, and
in some states the law compels
Jiim to attend to it; it is also one
of his duties to help administer
the government, of which he is a
part, by designating with his ballot
whom he prefers to administer or
make the laws and what character
of laws he desires to have made,
and the law has an eaual right to
compel him to discharge the obli
gation. As government comes from
the people, good government can
only come from good people. The
creature cannot be better than the
creator. If the corrupt elements
are permitted to dominate at the
polls, a corrupt government can be
the onlj' result. If a man neglects
to perform his duty as a citizen in
this respect, even to his own injury,
his neighbor, who is also injured
by this neglect, has the moral
right to insist that he shall per
form it, and this moral right might
be made a legal one with much
benefit to the cause of good gov
ernment.
In these days when most people,
from the president down, are ear
nestly in favor of protecting the
seals in Behring sea, it is curious
to note that Senator Allen of
Washington has recently laid be
fore the senate "a petition from
the chamber of commerce at
Port Townsend praying for the
passage of a bill to protect the
fish along the Washington coast,
and arguing that seals should be
destroyed because they consume
more food fish every year than are
used in the canneries, and because
the seal-fur trade is maintained
solely to suit the tastes of the rich,
and, moreover, is controlled by a
monopoly.
The substitution of steel masts
for wooden ones has not proven
great success. The three steel
masts of the United States cruiser
Philadelphia weight 50.000 pounds
and cost $32,000. They are to be
replaced by wooden ones, of Ore
gon pine, that will weigh about
5,000 pounds and cost about $500.
The decision of the navy depart
ment to return to the use of wood
en masts is pretty good evidence
that they are superior to steel,
and meaus considerable money to
owners of timber specially adapted
io the purpose. Mobile (Ala

Nebraska celebrated its quarter
centennial as a state this week,
Jiaving been admitted on March 1,
1867. It was even no longer ago
titan this away out West, and was
but thinly settled, but now it is a
great state with over 1,000,000
' population. Oregon, as a state,
is eight years older than -Nebraska,
and its remoteness from the crowd
ed Atlantic has prevented its rapid
settlement and development. But
ihe next few years will witness a
great growth in Oregon. Tele

Across Behring straits to Siberia
first began, most people thought it

one side -of the Atlantic to the

OUR GUX FACTORY.
Senator Dolpli. of Oregon, has
introduced -a bill appropriating
$1,000,000" for the erection of suit
able buildings and the purchase
of suitable machinery and other
materials necessary for - the
establishment and maintenance at
some point on or near the Pacific
coast of a nlant for finishing and
assembling parts of heavy guns
and other ordnance for the use of
army and navy. The senate com
mittee on the coast defenses lias
passed on the bill and will report it
favorably to the senate.
This means that the gun factory,
should the bill pass, will be located
either in Oregon or Washington,
if the senators from those two
states can accomplish it. They
are not working for California to
any great extent where their own
states are concerned, and they are
not at all to b'ame. Ihe duty of a
senator i3 to his own constituents,
in preference to the people of
another state.
AH the same. the gun factory
should go to Benecia, and not to
some point on the Columbia river
or on Pugec sound. California is
entitled to it by every considera
tion, and we hope that Senators
Felton and Stanford will not let
Dolph and his associates steal a
march on them. S. F. Post.
The determination of the peo
ple's party to put a presidential
ticket in the field durng the com
ing campaign has awakened con
siderable interest in the prooable
candidates. Congressman Simp
son, of Kansas, recently stated that,
in his opinion, James B. Weaver,
of Iowa, would lead the ticket.
L. L. Polk, of North Carolina, T.
Y. Powderly, Grand Master Work
man of the Knights of Labor ; An
son J. Streeler, of Illinois, Charles
Van Wyck, of jSew York, and
Ignatius Donnelly, ot Minnesota,
have also been mentioned. Pow
derly, Weaver and Donnelly are
the only candidates who have a
national reputation, but as these
have made many antagonists in
their careers, it is likely some less
conspicuous man will De norm

Representative Hermann, of
Oregon, believes it is possible the
United States may secure the par
tial revocation of the edict against
the exportation of Angora goats
and has introduced a bill directing
the minister to Turkey to under
take negotiations for the purchase
of 100 or 200 pure-blood Angora
goats. Oregon, California, Ari
zona and other parts of the United
States, it is said, are well adapted
to raising these animals, and it is
hoped to domesticate them in
California first.
No man has- wor ked harder or
accomplished more for the inter
ests of Benton county in congress
than our present representative,
Hon. Binger Hermann. Should
he receive the nomination at the
convention to represent Western
Oregon for another term, Benton
county would stand in Hue with a
large majority of the votes in his
favor at the coming election.
Now will begin a democratic
wail because the republicans in
congress will not interpose to save
the democratic party from making
a Tool of itself on the silver ques
tion. It is a good thing for the
republicans to let the democratic
party take its own course. It can
always be relied on to make a fool
of itself at a suitable time. Ore

When politics get warm and a
campaign is in progress, the howl
goes up of the '"ring," "gang,"
"boodlers, ' etc., says the Port An
geles Tribune. But it is always
the fellows in the minority who
make these howls. It is the ones
m majority who constitute the
"ring," "gang," and "boodlers."
Funny, isn't it that the majority
always is with the ring ?
The school meeting last Monday
demonstrates the fact that the
taxpayers of Corvallis are in favor
of a liberal support for our public

JJAAIBLLNG THOUGHTS
ON THE LAWS OF PHYSICAL, MORAL, INTEL
LECTUAL AND SPIRITUAL LjVR.
Paper read at tho late Farmers' Institute by Mrs:
A. iL tahipley. - '
The great Master of the Universe
has ordained that all things shall be
governed by laws which are all wise
and inexorable. If the laws by which
the heavenly bodies are kept in shape
and made to move in their respective
orbits should be nullified, even but for
a moment, destruction would follow
reaching from Alcyone or wherever tho
center of our astral universe is, to the
remotest sun, planet or moon in that
system. If the laws relating to light,
heat and electricity, and other invisi
ble forces, were to become inoperative
life would cease. If the laws control-
ino- t.lif rii-r.nlation of water which
cause it to flow to the ocean m streams,
which draw, it up into clouds to b
precipitated again to the earth in mists
and rain, were to lose their force earth
would be uninhabitable. The laws
relating to animal and vegetable life
e unchangeable. By continued
favorable conditions plants and ani
mals may be improved, but a bird is
still a bird, a fish remains a fish, a
worm continues a worm, a fly never
changes into a bee or bug, and man is
always a man. It is not to be sup
posed that God, who made laws to
govern the minutest of His creatures,
made man, the crowning glory of all,
capable of reasoning and of iirquiring
knowledge and heir to eternal life,
without making laws for his guidance.
He has said, "As ye sow so ye must
a 1 e A.
reap, ana man was maae a iree agem.
with power to choose what and how
he shall sow. This law governs man's
physical as well as his intellectual,
moral and spiritual natures. Physical
law requires that to have good health
a person must have pure air to breathe,
pure and wholesome food to eat and
pure liquids to drink. With our close
houses, unhealthful dress and manner
of living, too highly concentrated food,
tea, coffee and the various kinds of
alcoholic drinks, which are narcotic in
their ultimate results, it requires much
study and selt-contiol to obey the
physical laws wen fairly well. An
excess of food is one of the most pro
lific sources of disease. It fills the
body with morbid matter in which
thosa organisms which are present in
malarial diseases, rheumatism, head
ache, dyspepsia, liver complaint, kid
ney trouble, etc., can find lodgment
and multiply. Want of proper exei
cise causes a person to rust out and
too much to. wear ont Trouble and
worry are weakeniug in their effects.
If we find we are getting sick, it is
best to stop at once and try to find out
what the trouble is, what law we have
transgressed, and then go resolutely to
work to get back into proper condi
tions. First, stop eating and cleause
body, both inside and out, with warm
water ; it is a great cleansing agent.
Keep the feet warm and the head cool.
Cool or cold applications of water,
steadily persisted in, will seldom fail
to allay a fever, and there is no danger
of taking cold while the fever is on,
but the treatment should cease as soon
as the fever subsides. Then rest, quiet,
and good, but not too officious, nursing
will usually be all that is needed. We
should not make the often fatal mis
take of using so-called stimulants, as
their use is always followed by conse
quent depression and only weakens the
patient. " Bleeding has gene out of
piactice years ago, and calomel, that
terrible poison, is seldom used now ;
it is too dangerous. Alcohol, in all
its forms as medicine, goes next. A
convention of physicians of national
rfeputation, last sumn.fr, after pro
longed discussion and comparing of
notes, pronounced almost unanimous
ly against - the use of alcohol in any
form as a medicine. I wish every one
could read their long and interesting
report. The officer who, in Washing
ton after the war, compiled the medi
cal statistics of the army of the Po
tomac found, to his astonishment, that
in those regiments where alcohol was
not used the death rate was much
lighter than where it was allowed.
The benent supposed to be derived
from it is not real, and if it was, the
danger of alcohol habit is so great that
thoughtful people fear to tamper with
it. Shall we take morphine and deaden
the sensibilities so that we cannot feel
pain and let the cause remain 1 Will
we risk it and perhaps contract the
deadly morphine habit God forbid.
Poison may kill the microbes that are
thickening the blood or feasting on
the vitals and if we also are not killed
or so weakened that we die of ex
haustion all may seem well, but if, in
stead of running that risk, we cleanse
our bodies of morbid matter these or
ganisms will have nothing to feed upon
and they will disappear and we be
left well and strong. There are many
imple remedies such as tens made
I from, the aromatic, herbs, .boxaor, sul- j
phur, etc., which are obnoxious to
microbes and are comparatively harm
less to men, and it has been said that
a cloth saturated with turpentine and
spread over the mouth and nOse, so
that the person must breathe through
it is a sure cure for pneumonia. Strong
medicine which reduces the patient
uses up some of the reserved life force
and it can never be restored.
- Intellectual law ordains that we
must give our minds proper mental
food or they will be dwarfed and feeble,
and improper food will make them
crippled and diseased. Mind, to be
vigorous, must be exercised in various
directions. Dwelling too much on
one . subject ofun makes a person
cranky or insane. One may be too
careless to think, too indolent to read,
or too weak to reason, but he cannot
plead ignorance of the law or evade
the penalty if he breaks it, or prevent
his children from inheriting his mental
weakness. Mental faculties will be
come stronger by use and weaker by
disuse. Memory is improved by ex
ercise or lost by want o-' u. It will
not pay to go through the world asleep
and let others do our thinking for us.
Violation of moral laws are far
reaching in results. Selfishness, which
leads one to disregard the rights of
others, may in his children be de
veloped into dishonesty or theft. One
who deceives will not be trusted. If
those who indulge in low, vile thoughts,
words, acts and company could see
themselves as others see them, if they
knew that their characters are so plain
ly written on their faces that observ
ing people can easily read them, they
would hide their heads in shame, if
they possess such an attribute. We
should stand up for what we know
to be right, and never give up a
principle io any one. TuU law is so
closely allied to those which govern
the spiritual nature that to keep it
one must love his neighbor as him
self, which he can scarcely do without
loving God with ail his heart, and one
who does this has peace, rest and joy,
which nothing else can give.
The persons who are filled with that
Celestial magnetism which flows from
God tothose who are striving to live
in harmony with Him, who possess
faith, that substantial force, which
reaches to the eternal throne, need
have no fear, for "All things work to
gether for good to those who love
God." If it should be true that all
the thoughts and purposes of our
minds are indelibly stamped there so
that in ihe spirit world all who will
may read both what we are and what
we ever nave been, what will our
record be? The past is gme, but the
future is before us. How cm bet
ter learn to know and keep the laws
God has made tor our guidauce He
has said that lie is able and willing; to
! help those who come to Him in sin-
cent with faith and trust, and the
testimony of millions who h;i,ve Jived,
and many who are still living, goes to
prove that they louud peace and happi
ness in such help. Why shouul we
walk in darkness when He is willing
to give us light? Why grope in igno
rance when wisdom is wicliin our
grasp ? Why be weighed down with
trouble when we can cast our burdens
on the Lord? Why live in unrest
when he has said, "Come unto me all
ye that re weary and heavy laden
and I will give you rest." Let us
i study that wonderful book, which
brings only confusion to those who
read for purposes of. criticism, but
peace, rest nnd joy to all who study it
with the earnest purpose ol finding
the truth therein contained. Let us
give more time to such study and less
to the acqiring of things which perish
with the using, and strive to lay up
treasures in Heaven, that we may feel
assured that there are prepared for us
mansions eternal in the heavens.
NOTES FOR WOMEN.
It is proposed by roeriibers of
the W. O. T. U. ta iully represent
the "products" of the saloon at
the Worlds fair, that is, almshouses,
insane asylums' idiot asylums, and
last but not least the potters field.
The bill to legalize the sale of
liquors in Alaska is being pushed
through the senate. It is thought,
by good authorty, that if this bill
is passed that it will be the ruina
tion of the natives.
There- is a bill . before congress
to amend the act passed, last year
prohibiting the granting of liquor
licenses within one "mile of the
Soldier's Home. There has been
a marked improvement in the
lives of the soldiers since the pass
age of this bill and there is much
concern regarding the amendment.
Mrs. E. A. liussell, of Minneap
olis, Minn., has made a great suc
cess of the coffee house of the W.
O. T. U. Over $100,000 have been
received within the last three
years and 2,300 person's are often
fed in one day. .
: The fourteen and a halfdollars,
collected by the-ladies of the good
Samaritan. Church for Mrs. Hanson,
of the Alsea, have been turned
over to a responsible person, to go
toward the purchase of whatever
livestock would be the most useful
to the distressed family. -
Mis. Hanson, with her little boy
and babe returned to her home
Fridayv very grateful to the people
of Corvallis who so kindly helped
her.
Upwards of sixty names, nearly
all of which were voters, were
signed on the petition to congress
that Senator Dolph's bill to legal
ize tne saloon m Alaska De not.
suffered to become a law. But
for haste in the matter many more
might have been gathered in for
"common humanity's sake."
The W. C. T. U. of Salem are
anxious that the women should
take up their responsibilities and
vote, whenever legally entitled to
do so at the annual bchool meet
ing. They feel that the kinder
garten is the only right training for j
very young children, and see no1
reason why there should not be
what the law entitles them to de i
mand. The state W. C. T. U. aid
ed Mrs.Dunlap and her friends in ;
obtaining this law several years !
ago, and the Portland school board i
have fought it ever since. Lei !
the smaller cities lead Portland in !
the right way. Private kinder
gartens are excellent things, but
why should people pay for things
when they are already taxed in
order to provide them.
At the union bible reading on
Thursday afternoon the passage
read, led up to the subject of bap
tism. The way baptism is regard
ed by the different churches repre
sented there worked up much
interest. E. M. S.
The goodly attendance at the
drawing-room meeting at Mrs. B.
W. Wilson's on Saturday last
showed great interest in the topic
on hand.. Judge Holgate was
there armed with the clerk's
papers, and they bristling with
figures, showed how imperative
was a seven-mill tax, if the effi
ciency of the school is to be pre
served throughout the nine months
school year. More than half of
this is to pay interest on money
borrowed, and to decrease the
capital of indebtedness. Our beau
tiful school house was not built by
fairies in the night, and has to be
paid for. The trouble is that some
people (men only, be it known)
are smart enough and mean
enough to evade their school tax.
The several instances of widows in
4heir little home, which home is
often their means of living, pay it
like the brave women that they
are without a even murmur. It
seems a pity that the school tax
could not be legally spread over a
greater number of people. There
are people content to rent their
houses year by year and who need
not for that reason be exempted.
There are many who come into
town for a portion of the year for
the sake of the education of their
children. Why should they have
this benefit entirely at the ex
pense of their neighbors ? Why
should uot a tax be levied on them,
on their children instead of their
properly. L.
The District of Columbia is sup
posed to consist chiefly of board
ing houses and hotels, and the
people are believed to get their
sustenance from congressmen and
lobbyists, but according to the cen
sus report there are in the District
2300 manui'acturinjr, establish
ments having an invested capital
of $28.S76,258, employing 23.477
hands, paying out annually $14,
638,790, and producing $39,296,-
259 worth of goods out of $17,187,
752 worth of raw material. This
a much belter industrial showing
than it was supposed the District
would make, and proves the rapid
growth of Washington is not
due wholly to the lactf that con
gress meets there.
A WARNING-DONT USE BIG WORDS,
In promulgating esoteric cogitations or
articulating superficial sentimentalities and
philosophical or psychological observations,
beware of platitudinous ponderosity. Let
your statements possess a clarified concise
oess, compacted comprehensibleness, coale
scent consistency and a concentrated cog
ency. Eschew all conglomerations of flatulent
garrulity, jejune babblement and asinine af
fectations. In trying to impress ppon others
the superiority of . the Wisconsin Central
Lines, and .why you and so man others use
this thoroughfare from St. Paul and Min
neapolis and Duluth and Ashland to Mil
waukee, Chicago and points east and south,
it is not necessary to use jawbreakers. Let
your extemporaneous descautiugs and un
premeditated expatiations have intelligibil
ity and veracious vivacity, without rhodo
montadeor thrasonical bombast. Sedulously
avoid all polysyllabic profundity, psittace-
ous vacuity, ventriloqnal verbosity and van
diloquent vapidity, shun double eutendres,
prurient jocosity and pestiferous profanity,
obsenrent or appareut. In other word),
talk plainly, naturally, sensibly, and truth
fully say the Wisconsin Central Lines is
THE route, and that ends it. ' -
The Massachusetts insnrance law is the
best in the United States. Every company
in that state is compelled to give you a guar
antee against loss after two payments of cash
or paid np insurance, without any condition
and at any time. Tho Massachusetts Mu
tual pays yon annual cash dividends, or they
will increase the insurance. ,
