1 LINCOLN GOOITY LEADER RE COLLINS. Editor r N MAYDEN, Manar TOLEDO. OREGON The reckless chauffeur, like the lone train robber, always manages to get way. v The most satisfactory matter to for get about Is your antipathy toward some one. To listen to the griefs of .others, and be Interested, la a Quick way of making friends. Times must be hard when we see a hard-working and willing man like Mr. Roosevelt out of a Job. F. Marlon Crawford, the novelist, left a goodly estate. But not all nov elists are F. Marlon Crawfords. A Pittsburg brakeman announces that he Is Charlie Ross. He doesn't go to far, however, as to declare that you can't lose him. We do not find It difficult In the least to think of things that would be more pleasant than being caught In an air ship by a sixty-mile gale. The annual proflts of the Standard Oil Company are estimated at $00, 000,000. But the company needs the money to pay Its attorneys. They've found a cave a mile long In the Adlrondacks. Bet It's only the coal cellar of one of those 15,000,000 "cottages" that abound In that region. Manager Chance's advice to ball players: "Don't drink. This Is the worst thing a player can do." There Is a flrsj-class temperance lecture, boiled down. Some conception of the expenslveness of war may be gathered when It Is known that It costs as much money to Are a 12-lnch gun as an editor makes In two years. Somebody is getting up an airship "Marathon race." Which, we suppose, is something like a submarine "Sa lome" dance. How tired one gets of a. lot of things I Professor Starr Is afraid Roose velt's age may tell against him If he Is stricken, with the lever In Africa. The" professor's fear is wholly un founded. Mr. Roosevelt has no age. A train was blown from a railway track In Missouri the other day, and, furthermore, It was one of Mr. Har rlman's trains. There are many people who will wonder how Aeolus ever dared to do It . I The statisticians have0Mftiai that1 less than 8,000,000 peopiyafertltnj; more than $1,000 a year eactPlik "this country. This should make the man who Is getting $25 a week cheer up and begin to feel aristocratic. The new woman In China, Instead of following the example of her English and American sisters In railing against the tyranny of men, has revolted against her relatlons-ln-law. One of the women's clubs in Shanghai pro claims as Its object "rebellion against mothers-ln-law." One of the tercentenaries of which scientific men will take note this year is the making of Galileo's first telescope in 1009. It is not known Just when he perfected his instrument, but the first news of it of which we have record Is found in a weekly news paper published in Strassburg, Ger many, in May of that year. While a great warehouse was burn ing in Chicago, the telephone opera tor, a young woman, remained at her switchboard, and called up all the dif ferent departments and warned all who were In the building. She was found at her post, overcome by the smoke, and was fortunately carried to a place of safety, where she revived, none the worse for her heroism. On one night In each year the Lon don police take a careful census of the homeless. This year the night selected was that of January 10th, when the officers found more than two thousand persons, of whom nearly two hundred were women, and twenty-three chil dren, sleeping outdoors without shel ter. On the same night nearly twenty two thousand persons were occupants of common lodging houses of the poor er type, and about twelve hundred more were accommodated In the casual wards of work houses. Prohably many, if not most, of the thousands who were homeless on that midwinter night were undeserving; but, In one view of the case, that Is another reason why they Jionld be pitied. Again the familiar question about What tort of man should be sent abroad to represent the government Should be be a rich man or poor man, beggar man r a spongel Should he live hi a style befitting his commission and required by the life around him, or haggle about house rent and cut all corners? Should he accept hospitality when unable to return it? In a word, should ha do In Rome as the Romans do, or make himself eccentric by try ing to bring the Romans to hit way of dolngT The proper remedy is the prop er money allowance by the government Such officials perform Important ser vices, and should be at no disadvantage on any account. But whenever that Is proposed in Congress objection Is made, and a homily Is heard that we are aping monarchy and straying off from the wise and simple ways of the fath ers. Let us, we are advised, return to the example of Franklin. As If we could, unless the period and the cus toms that went with it could be re stored. President Taft is not reduced to a choice of money bags. Men who possess both brains and means are nu merous in this country. Tho historian Buckle to some extent conveys a false idea when he avers that the love of money has done more for the benefit of mankind than any other human passion save the love of knowledge. His idea is that to the love of money we owe all trade and commerce; the possession of comfort and luxury ; the knowledge of foreign nations and manners ; the outlet for energies which might otherwise be pent up and wasted; the development of enterprise, forethought and calcula tion; the arts of utility, of ornament and of healing in short, most of the organization which, lifts us above the savage state. To say that all this is due to love of money is rather putting the cart before the horse. Would it not be more correct to say that the love of money Is due to the fact that money has become the solvent of pow er and Values? The Invention of a representative of value by means of which all exchanges could be made was one of the greatest of Industrial con ceptions. Some of the animnls and in sects have the instinct of provision or prevision remarkably developed. Id the bee and the squirrel it is the means of self-preservation. In the human ani mal a similar instinct was developed by brain-power and slowly-acquired knowledge into the wonderful organi sation of modern civilized society. Thai money, in its various uses, has been one of the most potent Instruments em ployed In the rearing of the social fab ric, cannot be denied. The Instrument that has facilitated the accomplish ment of such results Is entitled to due respect; but to say that the love of money has wrought the grand struc ture is putting human motives on too low a plane. Rather let us soy that prudence, foresight, love of older, am bition for improvement, have conse crated to high uses what would other w.'ftftibeiflaeieiCjounters. But If we take the term love of money to be a con- WretetexpteSBlotV'Vointhe organizing lm- plin! 'the humn0race, it is a pas slo'rt'not to be dUcouraged, but on the contrary to be encouraged and stimu lated by wise laws for the protection of property. In order to produce the 'best results, the individual must be guaranteed the fruits of his toll and his enterprise to the utmost extent pos sible, consistent with the maintenance of institutions for the common good. A Vie for Tin Cam. The unpretentious tin can Is put to good use In several Arizona mining camps and no longer is left on the hill sides to be nibbled by the pensive goat. Particularly at Blsbee, Clifton and Je rome the cons and all other scrap iron available are gathered up and heaped Into long troughs and into vats for the precipitation of water that. Is pumped from the copper mines, carrying copper in solution with sulphur. The Iron Is gradually eaten away and replaced by copper, forming what is known as "slime," which runs from 80 to 50 per cent in the red metal. The expense of gathering Is almost nothing. The water from the Jerome mines Is particularly strong, and it is told that shovels and picks cannot be left in some of the damp drifts for fear of losing the tem per of the metal, which eventually will be entirely replaced by copper. Ore running 15 per cent copper has been found on the 000 level of the Shatturkmine In Blsbee In a fine sul phide body, whose dimensions have not yet been, determined. Los Angeles Times.

People to-day seem to be divided into three camps on the question of how much help medical science can get from mental or spiritual sugges tion. There are enthusiasts for and conservatives against, and then a large class of mild conservatives, who are willing to see mental suggestion gain and keep a place as the hand muid of medicine, but refuse to have her masquerading, as queen. There is assuredly one domain where mental science has always held wide sway, and where its help has been constant ly Invoked, both consciously and un consciously, and that Is the nursery. The wiser the guardians of tho nur sery, the more consciously and scien tifically Is this latent and mysterious force called upon for aid. It Is need less to point out that it can bo used for harm here as readily as else where, and many broken-down adults might trace the first steps in their-un-dolng to the foolish sugestlons plant ed by Ignorance in their, nursery days. Some persons make the mistake of treating every little childish ailment with a sort of portentous solemnity. They talk in such a way as to arouse all the dramatic instinct of a small pa tient, and help it to fill the role of in valid -with gusto.

To "kiss the place and make it well" Is a happy form of mental ther apeutics to which we have all prob ablyylelded in our Infancy; and who has not laughed at the prompt hush ing of angry bawls, while some terri ble sufferer paused to aee how the poor table was standing itT . To win over the dramatic instinct of childhood to the service of health is surely a work worth doing, and quite as easy of accomplishment as the opposite, and it cannot be begun too early. It Is pleasant to recall one nursery full of healthy, happy children, where all passing minor aliments are met with a sort of tolerant surprise by both mother and nurse, and bumps and scratches and histrionic "pain aches" are distinctly unpopular. Be hind this attitude the most watchful care, of course, prevails, but it is, so far as the children are concerned, a silent care, and the language of dis ease lB,unknownv The system works perfectly, and is recommended for trial. KING OF BIAM LIGHTED FYKE. Cremation of tho Late Prof. Strobe, Onco of Harvard' Faculty. Thtough the courtesy of Lindsay Swift, 77, of the Boston public li brary, the Bulletin is able to print an account of the ceremony of the crema tion of the late Edward H.

Stewart, formerly Sena tor from Nevada, died in Washington following an operation. Mr. Stewart was noted while in the Senate as the champion of free silver and made many notable speeches In behalf of that cause. His characterization of the de monetization of sliver as "the crime of '73" Is a noted phrase In the financial history of the country. Mr. Stewart was born in Lyons, N. T., Aug. 9, 1827. He was a student In Yale College when the gold discoveries in California were made in 1849 and went to the Pacific WILLIAM M. STEWART. coast overland.
