f. X ORE K Oft SENTINEL. J JLC3UOXVIU.E Saturday, March 19, 1S81 JTXEKEAL SCVCHTieM. Tkero ware soma unreasonable and oat sensible seggestions made regard ing tie conduct of funrmls at the late Hethodut convention in Portland. It was urged that the practice of -wearing aocrning be abandoned because its cost Kis burdensome on tie poor; bet 3tsiglrtfae u reasonably expected that Uwweajtly ctiM abandon all otlser taecsc ol ostentation, because -others vrrn pecuniarily unable to imitate them. Tie -ghastly pageantry of mod ern funerals c & "natter of individual -tatte only to be governed by the abil ity of surviving relatives to make the dsplay, gratifying perhaps, to the poor pride of the living bnt of little inijar tance to the dead. The habiliments of TOcrarnieg, iowever, should not be dis carded by those wlio fed able to weir them. Tbe eabVencs of sorrow are as sacred x tie secrets of the -wounded Irtart iritiin, and.the self denial that discards gay apparrel for the drapery of Jeath is not an unpardonable sin. Not tiiat outside show is necessary to dis close the grief of the troubled heart, for the poorin tack cloth nay feel the -woends that death leaves as keenly as tie rich in the most ghastly ulken raperyj but because the practice of wearing mourning, is in itself, an ex CTtptioa from many of the foolish bur dens of society, it is not likely to be daconfchiocd. Objection was also made to opening coffins at the grave and it is not without force. While human nature has never reached that point of stoicism, and never will, wh:n we will part with our dead with jr fect resignation, the last look at loved ones should sot be t&ken when the peor clay is unsightly but when it will leave an-impress on the mind that will ot bring unpleasant remembrances. In this respect the suggestions made at the convention are correct; but to a.sk civilized people to forego the poor priv ilege of showing that their thoughts are with their dead by wearing decent mourning apparrel will be considered too much of an innovation. It would b-jutt as reasonable to ask ministers to relinquish a cherished prerogative, that of torturing the living in the pres ence of the dead by harshly judging the deceased, if having gone before the final Tribunal while outside the pale of any orthodox religion. Hcxlcw Conqnrrctf. The once hated "Gringo" has at last conquered the sistr republic, by the arts of peace and the bauds of the American railroad kings are stretched out) by invitation, to .gather in her riches. Prom every indication, it will ot be ten years until every fertile ral 1y, rery rich mineral region of Mcx "ts is tra-rersed by an American rail road, bsllt, owned and managed by cit izens of the United States. Then the gradual absorbtion by the stronger and more vigorous civilization will begin. "FSllibustering" will be out of date and the idea of a protectorate-forgotten. Waen the Mexican boys learn to whis tle "Yankee doodle," handle Colum bian's, raise wheat, cotton, and liberty poles; the Mexican girls understand how to run sewing machines and man ipulate baby jumpers and their finger? keep time to the mutic of American spindles then -vill the victory be com plete. Then the bird of freedom mar build its nest in the highest peak of the Cordilleras till his scream be heard from ocean to ocean mingled with the screech of American steam whistles, and who will -dare ruffle a feather of his wingj Within twenty five yean we shall witness all these things as the peaceful absorption of Mexico is only "manifest destiny" and it is written, that the Anglo-American will rulo the western world. Xtvtpaper CourtciJ. An exchange in Portland, the Stan dard, is vexed because a Salem paper continually filches from its original matter without proper acknowledge ment. This is a matter that does not concern the public; but one of profes sional courtesy among publishers and this paper has more than once entered the same complaint as the Standard without avail Publishers who resort to the practice of filchinj, news items and ideas, to interest their readers, from their exchanges, are professional bunt mers,.no more respected than the bwamtr who hangs round a bar in or der to pick up a drink Men who are vjj.williEg.to give -others credit for their labor and incapable of making a paper interesting by their own ability and industry ought to select some calling that could not be disgraced by jetty larceny for pluralism is nothing else and we dofe't care who likes oc dislikes oar opinion. AS CMJLlni.C rUACD. Under this head the Salem States man publishes sorie original matter "which would be very proper, if strictly true. Ic is in regard to the "staT' mail -uervice between Roseburg and Bedding, end that paper says: "After the -contract had been enter ed upon the contractors, through and y the aid of "infiuenfrW friend, man aged to get an order for increased mail tervice, for which they were to receive $30,000 extra." This is erroneous. There was no in crease of compensation after thelcttiag of the contract, butitwaltid for precise' ly as it was advertised by the Depart ment, but in TefeTrrngto the "increased service," which is a tri-eekly mail, for the conveyance of third and fourth class mail matter, the Statesman is ex tremely unjust That paper complains that the extra service oulv extends one day'i travel from the termini of the route, and because it is not continued through the whole route (unnecessarily) the government i defrauded out of 530.000. The -stage company have a contract to carry the United States mails from Roaeburg to He.lding on specified schedcle time, for which ser vice the conijmnv is paid a certain price. After receiving the contract it was found that the service could be performed without the additional ex pense contemplated 'by the go eminent that is by running the "extras" over the worst reads at both ends and filling the daily coaches with the extra load at the sacrifice of passenger traffic. The mails are carried through promptly and safely on schedule time, and it is im probable that tire department will find any fault with the mode of transpor tation. If mails have been delayed as the Statesman alleges, the delay has been caused by storm and impassable roads and streams, not b) lack of means of transportation. The public between here and the termini of this route hive no complaint to make of the service. Let people living in very large places like Salem are harder to please than those in the country and must bf excused for petulance. The truth is, that if it were not for extra ordinary expenditures, by the stnge company in road building and for the greatest determination to perform the service we would be without mails half the time during the winter. The ani mus of the Statesman is principally di rected against Postal Inspector Simp son, with whom it is very angry, be cause he cannot ferrrt out fault or fail ures where there are none. If the ed itor of the Statesman will come down here and proceed as far as Yreka, he will wonder how the mails are dragged through at all and go home in a good humor. "Irresistible Impulse." "Verily this world is progressing in elegance and refinement. The vulgar terra "emotional insanity" is no longer thought tit to express the delicate sen sibilities of those who slay their fellowr, and that perturbation of reason ihat overcomes so many unfortunate homi cides, is only to be referred to by a ten der allusion to its natural sequence as "irresistible jmpulse,"l)y the legalfrater nity. It is hard to decide whether we are progressing or retrotrading, how ever, as we well remember, that in the early days of this coast, if a man felt an irresistible impulse to murder, the community were seized with a similar disposition and the ctilprit generally reached eternity by a short line, much less expensive than modern Courts, the fares on which were regulated only by the price of hemp. It is all right though. Let murder be dignified by "irresistible impulse," prowded alwavs no fault be found if a community should be impelled by the sentimental ity of juries to check the -wholesale manslaughter, that legal men defend as a fine art, by an irresistible desire to return to the old and effective mode of criminal jurisprudence for to that jre are drifting. The appointment of ex-Senator Thurman, as a member of the Inter national monetary commission, might excite a fear that official material among Ohio Republicans w as exhaust ed, but such is, probably, not the case. The appointment is only a handsome recognition of Judge Thurmau's worth. It does the President honor, proving him above many of his party; and is an aet no fair minded Republican should find fault with. When Senator Camden of West Virciuia, was proposed in the Demo cratic caucus as a member of the finance committee there was groat in dignation btx-ftuse bw is PresiuVnt of a Katifiiol Iwrett. Tliis shows the p-iri-fying ellrets li::oal campaign, but the vh-teoa jtt;tsde of tlw party, that so lately took the- Indiana banker, Znc'i'b. for its National candidate is strikingly ludicrous. jWen's-suits wortL 313.00 sold at the , Kew York Store for 9.00 or-ly. AS(AsSI.ATlU. OF ?UK CZAK. The Nihilists of Russia havXat last succeeded in murdering the EmpSror of Russia and the event has sent a' thrill of horror and indignation through out Europe. It will probably result in the drawing of tbo reins of govern ment still tighte? and a complete break ing up of the communistic organiza tion. The following details are from the Oregonian's dispatches. St. Petersburg, March 13. As the em jeror was returning from a parade in Michel Manege at about 2 o'clock Sunday afternoon, a bomb was thrown which exploded under the czar's car riage which was conriderablv damaged. Tiie czar alighted unhurt, but a second ' bomb exploded at his feet, shattering both legs below the knees, and iuflicting other terrib'e injuries. The czar was immediately conveyed iu an un conscious state to the Winter palace, where he died at 4:30 o'clock this p. m. Two persons were concerned in the crime, one of whom was seized imme diately. The explosion also killed an vfiicor and two Cossacks. Many po licetuen and other persons were injured TEE -SECOND DISPATCH. Lokdo.v, March 13. A St. Peters burg correspondent saj-s: The imper ial carriage was attacked on Ekat Rin osk canal opposite the inerial stables while the euieror was. returning with Grand Duke Michael from Michael palace in a closed Carriage supported bv eight Cossacks. The first bomb fell nesr the carriage destroying the back jiart. The czar and his brother alight ed uninjured. Tim assassin on being seized by a colonel of police drew a re volver but was prevented from firing it. A second bomb was then thrown by another person and fell close to the czar's feet, its explosion shattering lioth his legs. The czar fell crying for help Col. Dorjibki though himself much in jured raised the emperor who was con veyed to the Winter palace in Col. Dorjibki's sleigh. Large crowds as sembled before the p&lace but were kept back by troops of Cossac s. The iinerial family were "all assembled at the deathbed. The council of state immediately con vened. All places of public resort are closed. A dostor's bulletin published at 3 in the afternoon stated that both legs were broken below the knee, the lower part of the body severely injured, and the left eye torn from its bocket. Grand Duke Michael was not hurt. The assassins were disguised as peas ants. One report ravs that one of them was so roughly handled that he has since died. All army officers have leen ordered to remain in barracks The council of the empire, under tbo presidency of the czarovitch, was still sitting at midnight. A manifesto will be published Monday. Services will 1 held at the W inter jialacc Mondav. Afterwards the new emperor will re ceive the homage of officers of state. When Col. Dorjibki asfced tho first assisfiin his name he replied "Kousa kofT." A few minutes before his death tl.e emperor received the sacrament. Upon receipt of official intelligence of the Czar's death the following dis paUh was cabled by Secretary Blaine: Washington, March 12. Foster, American Minister, St. Pe tersburg: ExprerJ! to Minister of For eign Affairs sentiments of sorrow with which the President and the people of the United States have heard of the terrible criiuo of which the Emeror has been the victim, and their profoui.d sympathy with the Imperial family and the Russian people in theirgreat afflic tion. BLAINE, Secretary. Plaat Flowers. There are few people who do not love flowers. Dives and Lazarus, king and kaiser, the rich and the jioor, the proud and the humble alike ac knowledge their beauty and may all gratify their senses in the enjoyment of nature's gifts. Childhood delights in them, and from the hour when in nocence drinks their beauty and fra grance, they assume an imiortance in all the great affairs of after life. The bride is crowned with them; the war rior, the statesman and the sage are loaded with them as the choicest offer ings of a grateful people. Tho altars, consecrated to worship, are adorned with the floral tributes of the faithful, breathing an incense sweetest of all in nature's alchemy. The dimming eye of age yet sees their loveliness and the silent tomb receives them as the last tender and affectionate tribute to the dead. We could wish to see our pco pic cultivate them more, not merely as an indication of taste and refine m ent, but as an inexpensive gratifica tion to those who arc unable to in dulge in the ownership of such simple luxuries. Tliero is nothing that makes a town so attractive as pretty and tasteful flower gardens, nor is there ny means of public adornment, cost ing so little and yielding so much. Our neighbors in Yreka are far ahead of us in this respect and their floral taste is much remarked by strangers and sojourners there; and who delight to linger in the fragrance surrounding even the humblest cot tages. We wish our own citizens would do more in the way of the cul tivation, even of the most common varieties. Remember the New York Store when you wish to buy goods, because the best goods you-can get for one half their real valu. - j0KfrdrW& maBSm CORES BT ABSORBTION, NATURE'S WAY.
