ONE BUGBEAR REMOVED.
The hideous bugbear of an illimita
ble coal strike has been removed by tiie
sensib'e action of John Mitchell, the
controlling genius of the miners fed
eration. Mitchell has always been
deemed one of the levelest-beaded men
in the ranks of organized labor in tlv
worhl and his claim for sagacity will
in no wise be impaired by his decision
of yesterday. The operators have met
him in ready good faith in the premise,
and the miner" themselves arc jubilant
ever the successful issue of the anthra
cite troubles. The Pacific west knows
but little of the vital points in an im
mense coal war, the one element of
which they are always cognizant, being
the inevitable advance in the price of
that home staple; but, like the printers
of the nation, the coal miners have an
organization that means something
when it strikes, and the brains to re
frain from striking when concessions
are made, evn if they do cover the
entire ground of demand. The country
will draw a grateful breath of intcii-c
relief at the outcome.
Chicago in the unaccustomed role of
"Spotless Town" will bo worth a trip

Damo Nature ha cruelly emphasized
the puninos of man. The Stanford
Cumf-ity building, designated by I lie
most scientific iniiul- and built with
th utmost care, especially to resist
cart Intakes, have Wn utterly demol
ished. Tho professors' houses adjoining,
but with no regard for convulsion of
nature, are practically -injured.
The thumb print method of personal
identification has again triumphed. It
is an ancient ami primitive device, but
it seems to hold its own in cHleioncy
with all tho elaborate rule ami I ibors
of the Itertilloii system. Of course, a
criminal could conceal his identity by
chopping otT his thumb, but niot men
would hesitate long before resorting to
so serious a mutilation. Besides, tho
uWinv of that tell-tale member would
itself be a suspicious circumstance.

TWENTY-NINE DAYS YET.
t
There are hut twenty-nine days of
campaigning time before the partisan
hosts of Clatsop. As yet there seems
to be no indication of the primary
battle for office. A careful review of
the situation, all over the county, shows
that the Republican strength is unim
paired and wholly devoted to the
issue of a complete victory. No chal
lenge has been heard; no slogan of de
fiance has been hurled into the arena;
the leaders are quietly guaging the
conditions and measuring the field, and
the battle, as such, will be of short and
decisive duration, and unequivocally
end in the election of every Republican
aspirant in the county, and contribute
its quota to the decisive victory of the
Bame ticekt throughout tin; State. This
is absolutely essential for the rehabili
tation of the party in Oregon. Once it
is achieved, th odd and rough and
varied causes for disaffection will dis
appear for good and all, the prestige
and sway of the dominant party will
be made permanent and of universal
advantage to the people.

MORE LAND FRAUDS.
This seems to be peculiar era of the
muck-raker! Oregon is about to over
haul another batch of land-grabbers,
and there are some prominent people in
the mess just unearthed. It is all right;
let them suffer. The man who poses as
the light and model of his community
for years and is then discovered to be
trading upon the established name he
has won, to defraud the people general
ly of their birth-right, is not deserving

Penguins niostly spend their lives ou
the water, I rt when, during the brood
ing season, :liey are obliged to set'k
the shore t uv establish cities, ninny
ncres often Mug laid out In square,
composed 0' what might be called
streets, rutnitiiK at right angles. The
birds not oii,l.v lay out their city after
picking up tll the lose stones till the
whole place Is as smooth as a board
floor, but tbv take possession lu cou
ples, each pair selecting a home site,
not to build a nest, but merely to se
cure a pnnlculnr spot on the bare
ground.
The hen luys one egg, and only one,

and sleek uuder the good care of their
faithful mates that they are eagerly
bunted at the breeding season.
The old birds are tough and fishy,
but the tender young matrons are In j
great demand, both for their oil and
flesh. Even the eggs have an oily and
fishy flavor and taste as hens' eggs
might If cooked In paraffin. The pen
guin bns wings, like other birds, but
they are altogether too short to fly
with, though they assist him some

Nature' Perch Clamp.
"Chickens and other MrdH roosting on
a perch no Mgger than a lead pencil
never fall o!r. Do you know why?"
said a farmer.
"The tendou of a roosting bird's leg
hi so constructed that when the leg is
bent at the kj ee the claws have to con
tractcan't open till the h'g is straight
ened out again.
"Thus a chicken gets on its perch,
bends Its knee to be comfortable and
with that bending locks itself, as vith
a key, to the wood. It can't fall off.
Put a chicken on your finger and then
make It sit down. Its claws will clamp
your finger tight and be unable to let
go until the bird stands up again. Na
ture, very kindly, has so constructed
roosting birds that the act of settling
down clamps them to their perch."

Shelter' Heart
A well known and very prominent
English family ore the possessors of a
remarkable relic In the shape of a hu
man heart preserved In a Jar of alco
hol. It appears that Shelley, the poet,
feared that there was a chance of be
ing burled alive. To guard against
any such a contingency he left direc
tions that bis heart should be removed
immediately after death. The queer
relic may still be seen by any one who
visits Ilascombe manor, Bournemouth,
England.
